Manises UFO Incident
For the first time in aviation history, a commercial flight made an emergency landing because of an encounter with a UFO at the Manises Aiport in Valencia, Spain on November 11, 1979. The aircraft had 109 passengers on board when its pilot noticed a series of red lights headed their way. Fearing for a collision, the captain changed the flight’s altitude, but the lights seemed to mirror the aircraft’s move. Because of this, the pilot decided to land the plane immediately.
