Below, we share the testimony of Leandro Vargas, who, at six years old, experienced an event that would remain with him throughout his life. What began as a simple sighting eventually became a series of occurrences that, to this day, remain unexplained. As he himself states:
“I hope that one day I will be able to make contact and understand, even if only a small fragment of this phenomenon.”
A reflection that many people who investigate these subjects undoubtedly share.
Hello, my name is Leandro Vargas. I am originally from the O'Higgins Region, specifically from the municipality of Santa Cruz, Chile. Since I was very young, I have been fascinated by the UFO phenomenon. I am currently 33 years old and, throughout my life, I have witnessed several sightings. However, two experiences stand out above all the others and profoundly shaped my perception of reality. I will describe both of them below.
The first of these events occurred in 1996, when I was only six years old. We lived in the town of Cunaco, located just a few minutes from Santa Cruz. It was a particularly dark winter night. I remember lying in my bedroom when something happened that I would never forget.
Only three people lived in our house: my parents and me. Our home was surrounded by fields, and at that hour of the night, the silence was almost absolute. Around nine o’clock, my mother went outside to look for our cat. Suddenly, we heard a piercing scream that shattered the stillness of the night.
“A UFO!” she shouted in obvious distress.
My father immediately rushed outside to see what was happening and, to his astonishment, saw an extraordinary object hovering above our two-story house. It was a disc-shaped craft suspended motionless in the air. Despite the distance, lights could be seen in its central section, along with a series of windows distributed around its structure. Most impressive of all, it made no sound whatsoever.
Based on its apparent size and position, the craft seemed to be approximately 200 meters above the ground. It was not alone. A second object with similar characteristics remained farther back, as if accompanying the first.
As a child, I felt indescribable fear. I began crying uncontrollably because I was convinced the craft had come to take us away. My parents tried to reassure me, suggesting that they were probably airplanes or some effect caused by clouds and the darkness of the night.
However, even at that age, I was not convinced. What I was seeing was far too obvious and extraordinary to be mistaken for anything ordinary. The structures remained motionless, silent, and perfectly visible before our eyes.
Trying to prove there was no danger, my father picked me up and lifted me toward the craft. Far from calming me, this only intensified my fear. I cried even harder, and eventually we decided to go back inside the house.
We remained indoors for about an hour. None of us could stop thinking about what was happening outside. Finally, we gathered enough courage to go back out and see whether the strange lights were still there.
When we looked up at the sky again, the craft were already moving slowly northward toward Cerro Rucatalca in the Apalta area. Gradually they disappeared into the distance until they were completely gone.
Years passed, but I never forgot that experience.
In 2012, while studying at the University of Talca, I frequently traveled between Talca and Cunaco on weekends. One of those trips would provide me with a second sighting just as striking as the first.
It was a Sunday at around two in the afternoon. I was traveling on a minibus along the route connecting Santa Cruz and Curic贸, specifically in the area known as Cuesta del Peral.
The vehicle was completely full. Most passengers were students listening to music through headphones, talking, or reading. I, meanwhile, was looking out the window, thinking about how quickly weekends with my family always seemed to end.
Suddenly, as we rounded one of the curves on the hillside road, something caught my attention.
From a ravine emerged a metallic sphere approximately three meters in diameter. Its silver surface reflected the sunlight intensely. It moved in a straight line while slowly ascending from the bottom of the ravine.
What was most surprising was its appearance. It had no wings, propellers, visible propulsion systems, or any feature that might explain how it remained suspended in the air. Nor could I see any seams, rivets, or screws. It appeared to be a perfectly smooth and flawless structure.
The sphere was about fifteen meters from the minibus, perhaps even closer.
I quickly looked around the vehicle, expecting someone else to be watching it, but no one seemed to have noticed. Everyone remained focused on their own activities.
Just as I was about to alert the other passengers, something impossible to explain occurred.
The sphere rose slightly and, in an instant, vanished completely before my eyes.
It did not speed away or disappear behind an obstacle. It simply ceased to be there.
To this day, I do not know how to describe exactly what happened. My impression was that the object passed into another dimension, changed state, or became invisible to human perception.
I still watch the sky attentively. I have also had recurring dreams involving humanoid beings and experiences that I consider prophetic, which I personally refer to as “visions of the future.”
I hope that one day we will better understand this phenomenon and perhaps establish some form of contact that can answer the countless questions that remain open. Even if we only manage to understand a small part of the mystery, I believe that would already be an extraordinary step forward.
Kind regards,
Leandro Vargas
