Farmers Joao Ernani and Pedro Zilli heard a strange humming sound, then saw two aluminum-colored disks 200 meters away. Near them were six men of average height, slim build, dressed in "dark gray suits glued to their bodies." The disks were about 3.5 meters wide, hovering one meter above ground. They rose with a sharp whistling sound, while coconut trees below them bent double. Three more disks rose from behind the trees, and all five flew toward the Atlantic.
