Guest guest Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Argentina - Mysterious Treefalls In Patagonian Forest Las Ultimas Noticias (LUN) September 26, 2004 >From Scott Corrales lornis1 The Journal of Hispanic Ufology 9-27-4 Talk of tornadoes, fallen satellites and saucer crashes... The forest woke up on the ground. That simple, that strange. All of the trees occupying a space equivalent to a city block in that forest near Ushuaia had been uprooted, piled from north to south as if pointing toward the same location. Of course, speculation on what could have caused the strange phenomenon commenced immediately, according to INFOBAE.com According to the first explorers to reach the site, it seemed as if an aircraft had collided, with the exception that there was no fuselage lost among the branches. Locals told of having seen fireballs plunging from the sky days earlier, which--according to them--could have been the answer to the mystery. But none of the trees is burned. In the northern part of the now-mysterious site, the tree trunks had been severed at a height of six to seven meters, which validated for several witnesses the theory that the impact had been something-- meteorite, UFO, satellite-- falling from the sky. The Centro Austral de Investigaciones Cientificas tried to appease the excitement saying it could have been a volteo (overturning), in other words, "a kind of tornado that uproots trees," according to the explanation given by Rogelio Acevedo. But Acevedo acknowledged that research must go on, since the winds in the area weren't strong enough to uproot the trees. Translation © 2004. Scott Corrales, IHU.
