The Most Convincing UFO Story From South Africa:
The Kalahari Event<\/b><\/font><\/big><\/center>
\n
\nIn the world of UFOlogy, the title of \u201cBiggest Event Ever\u201d easily goes to Roswell. However, there is another lesser-known event that many argue lays an equal claim to this title.<\/p>\n

On May 7, 1989, a spacecraft containing live aliens crashed into the Kalahari desert after it was shot down by the South African Air Force. After the crash, the craft and its crew were transported to Wright Patterson Air Force, home of Project Blue Book, the US Air Force\u2019s program for studying UFOs. <\/p>\n

This second event is far more documented than Roswell and has way more concrete evidence, not forgetting the undisputable proof from the US Air Force that the incident did, in fact, happen.<\/p>\n

So, how did one of the biggest UFO events of the 20th Century manage to become almost permanently erased and relegated to the back corners of obscure history?<\/p>\n
