\# Shanghai Exposes UFO Video Materials

Vast Majority Are Misinterpretations

4 Incidents Unexplainable

Shanghai News — Recently, video materials of UFOs monitored over Shanghai in the past 20 years have been exposed, drawing public attention to UFOs once again. However, what exactly are UFOs? Do aliens truly exist? Reporters learned that Shanghai's clearly recorded UFO incidents began in 1987. The vast majority of these UFOs were actually misidentifications by people or natural phenomena. Currently, only four UFO incidents cannot be explained by science. Yet, it is precisely the existence of these few unexplainable phenomena that sparks endless imagination.

Orange-red, circular, high-altitude, rotating clockwise… On the evening of August 27, 1987, Shanghai witnessed the famous "August 27 UFO Incident."

Currently, a video related to the incident has emerged, once again revealing the appearance of that UFO.

Reporters found that the so-called UFO in the footage is merely a dot, trailing two long orange-red tails, resembling a star streaking across the sky. Although the UFO appeared for only about ten minutes and no clearer images are available to further discern its appearance, its true identity remains unexplained, leaving the mystery of this incident unresolved to this day.

\### Back then, the moment remained etched in the witnesses' memories. "It looked like a meteor, but upon closer observation, its brightness, color, and flight trajectory confirmed it was not. What exactly it was, I still cannot say," recalled Chen Feng, head of the Forecast Service Department of the Shanghai Meteorological Bureau, describing the scene as if it were still vivid before his eyes.

Afterward, Chen Feng realized this was certainly no ordinary aircraft and reported it to the authorities. Coincidentally, at the same moment, countless citizens and staff from departments such as the Seismological Bureau also witnessed the phenomenon and contacted the Meteorological Bureau. In the end, everyone unanimously confirmed: a UFO had arrived in Shanghai.

Yesterday afternoon, Lou Jinhong, deputy director of the Shanghai UFO Exploration Research Center, revealed to reporters that although 95% of all so-called unidentified flying objects appearing in Shanghai are misunderstandings by people, the remaining 5% are noteworthy. Shanghai has experienced four classic UFO incidents so far. Aside from the one in 1987, the others include:

\- On October 31, 1990, from 5:00 PM to 5:15 PM, a "宁"-shaped and "fish"- or "branch"-shaped UFO appeared in the western and northern suburbs of Shanghai.

\- On March 18, 1991, from 6:03 PM to 6:28 PM, a "fish"- or "branch"-shaped UFO appeared centered over western Shanghai, extending to nearby suburban counties and regions such as Jiangsu and Wuxi.

\- On December 9, 1999, from 4:30 PM to 5:05 PM, a UFO appeared in the western sky of Shanghai.

Currently, the "宁"-shaped UFO remains scientifically unexplained to this day.
