UFO Sighting Report – Coya Case 2024

Classification: UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon)
Status: Unresolved
Source: Direct eyewitness testimony (family member of reporter)

1. Sighting Data

Approximate Date: 2024 (exact month not specified)

Time: ~03:00 AM

Location: Cordillera de Coya, Machalí commune, O’Higgins Region, Chile

Environment: Mountainous terrain, cold climate, clear sky, high visibility

2. Circumstances Prior to Sighting

The eyewitness and a companion (brother) were on a night hunting trip for rabbits. They had set up traps (“guaches”) and lit a fire to spend the night. At the time of the sighting, the companion was asleep near the fire while the eyewitness checked the traps.

3. Description of the Phenomenon

Main Object

Shape: Disc-shaped, resembling a flying saucer

Estimated Size: Approximately 12 meters in diameter

Altitude: Low, sufficient to illuminate the tops and trunks of nearby trees

Illumination: Intense, continuous yellow light

Secondary Objects

Two smaller lights or objects located on either side of the main object

It was unclear whether they were independent craft or physically attached

Movement and Behavior

Slow, silent motion, eventually disappearing into the distance

Associated Phenomena

Direct illumination of surrounding vegetation

Strong, penetrating sulfur-like odor in the environment

Eyewitness attempted to photograph the object with a phone but was unable to capture it

4. Estimated Duration

Between 30 seconds and 2 minutes

5. Environmental Conditions

Visibility: Excellent

Sky: Clear

Noise: None associated with the object

Ambient Light: Low (only fire and stars present)

6. Observations and Preliminary Analysis

Extremely low and silent flight

Intense yellow light, uncommon for satellites or conventional aircraft

Large estimated size (~12 meters)

Presence of sulfur odor, consistent with some historical UFO reports

Formation includes a central object with two lateral objects; physical connection uncertain

Eyewitness unable to photograph the event despite having a phone

The combination of these characteristics makes the sighting atypical and difficult to attribute to conventional explanations.

7. Case Status

Classification: UAP sighting with unique testimonial evidence

Rarity Level: High (due to low altitude, odor, size, and formation)

Information Level: Medium (single eyewitness, no visual or physical record)

Recommendation: Further investigation in the area and search for coinciding reports at the same date and time
