SAUCERS and Co

Vanguard of the armada that haunts our skies, the first unidentified craft appeared on June 24, 1947, over Washington.

Six months later, the captain pilot Thomas Mantell, chasing a "circular object", fell struck down.

Today, the epidemic of flying saucers rages on all France, extends beyond borders and reaches even the Middle East, Africa, and... New Zealand.

These days above the Saône, a dark disc made a short appearance in Saint-Laurent-les-Mâcon (Saône-et-Loire) where several people crossed the bridge... and it disappeared.

- Two "Martians" cross a national road in the Tarn before flying away in their saucer!
