📅 The Carrington Event — When a Solar Storm Changed UFO History (1859)

📍 Portugal 📅 1917 🔍 Scientist Sighting, Early Classic

The renowned British/Portuguese biologist Peter Carrington, while conducting fieldwork in Portugal, witnessed a massive, cigar-shaped black object silently gliding overhead. Known for his rigorous scientific approach, Carrington’s detailed records and calm analysis have made this sighting report highly regarded by the research community.

What makes this case particularly notable is that the witness was a researcher trained in strict scientific methodology, and the event occurred in 1917, before aircraft became widespread, ruling out most conventional explanations.
