Quote:The evening of Wednesday 19th January 1983 started out much like any other cold winter evening in South Wales. Just after dark, people were heading home from work, making tea, watching TV. Some were heading to work, meeting friends, or walking the dog. Many children and teenagers were doing their paper rounds, hanging around on street corners, or walking with friends. Local football and rugby clubs were getting games or practice underway. Just a normal Wednesday evening in South Wales.

The weather was cold, it being mid-January, and the sky was starry with no wind. All was cold and clear. Then around 5.15 pm, the first sighting was made of large objects in the sky over Swansea - huge triangular-shaped craft.

Over the next few hours, hundreds of people at locations across South Wales from Newport in the east to Swansea and Milford Haven in the west. They reported that the craft, sometimes single, sometimes in twos and threes, were the size of jumbo jets, football fields, sometimes moving slowly just feet over rooftops and some were motionless. But all were completely silent.

Many witnesses were close to the objects, just yards away in some cases, and remarkably were seen at different places at the same time - showing that many craft were involved. One came so low behind one man that he had to jump into a roadside ditch as he thought a truck was approaching from behind, as he sensed its presence.

Power outages were reported. Three separate witnesses reported strange effects, one in Newport and one in Swansea reported missing time and a Cardiff woman said she felt she was in a kind of bubble, separate from the world. A game of young rugby players in Llantwit Major was halted as a triangle flew over. And in Cardiff, many pupils of a primary school (after school and separately) witnessed a huge triangle flying low over Whitchurch.

SUFON has and is making contact with many of the witnesses, conducting interviews by video and by phone, documenting press cuttings and testimonies of the witnesses. Freedom of Information requests are being made and on this page, we are presenting all our findings of what went on that night in 1983, the night we have named: The Night of the Triangles.

Quote:June Thomas, who saw two large triangular objects near Swansea's South Dock, rejected the meteor theory outright, stating, "What I saw wasn't a meteor. They were moving slowly and without sound." A picture June drew of her sighting was printed in the South Wales Evening Post on January 21.

How Hundreds Witnessed UFOs During South Wales' "Night Of The Triangles"

Quote:UFO historian Loren E. Gross (Fremont, California) is near completion of his gigantic chronological history of early UFOlogy, up to 1959. AFU are the proud owners of 94 of the booklets in the series, the three latest pictured on the left. They represent more than 30 years of dedicated work by Gross.

How great if this unique material was made available on the internet…?

Added on February 21:  In an email to AFU, Loren Gross writes, modestly: “To give credit where credit is due, the vast majority of the good stuff in my monographs was due to the efforts of people like Barry Greenwood and Jan Aldrich. The only claim to fame I may have is the sorting, typing, & printing (plus paying the cost).  The real strength of my history series has been the extensive quoting of original material regardless of copyright. That fact forbids commercial publication. Researchers (for whom the monographs were meant) prefer the original text (I might add that when I express my own opinion in the monographs, I’m not always right!)”.

Quote:The Trump administration now says drones which raised alarms across the country are not a threat, after being highly critical of the Biden administration's similar response to the UAP issue on the campaign trail. Ross Coulthart gets reactions from Belleville, New Jersey Mayor Michael Melham and former Ord, Nebraska police chief Chris Grooms, who also share what residents continue to see in the skies to this day.

Quote:Lue Elizondo is a former U.S. Army counterintelligence special agent and a former senior intelligence officer for the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence. With decades of experience in national security, he conducted and supervised clandestine operations worldwide, specializing in counterterrorism, espionage, and advanced aerospace threats. He is best known for his role as the former head of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), where he investigated unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) and pushed for greater transparency on non-human intelligence (NHI). In this episode, we dive deep into giant underwater UFO footage, the existence of NHI, and the upcoming documentary Age of Disclosure. We break down reports of egg-shaped craft, alien writing, and Bob Lazar’s claims, and discuss Jake Barber’s insights into UAP phenomena and of course the famous 2027 claim. Buckle up.
