Renato Bifarella, looking at the sky with binoculars on a night of the full moon, saw a "tortoise" hovering in the sky. It was green in color with pale brown spots, and had "legs" underneath. It was 5-6 meters wide and 4 meters high, with a brilliantly lit turret in which he could see figures moving. It approached him, and emitted a beam of pink light, which struck him and caused him to faint. When he regained consciousness, he could see that the UFO had led down 2 thick "ropes" 1 meter in thickness, upon which 2 men---one in red overalls and the other in white ones, with blue helmets---were climbing. The witness fainted again; when he came to, the object was gone.
