Unknown over Torrevieja (Spain) · Spain
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw what I thought was a satellite. I was looking at the night sky - direction 330 degrees and about 60-70 degrees elevation. Approximate height - impossible to say. Seeing one small light HDNG approx 055 degrees across the sky. That would indicate origin being USA/Mexico if they were travelling in a dead straight line. Sky was clear (stars visible) with minimal light pollution its direction of travel. I then noticed more "dots" following it. My father was with me and saw it all. We counted around 20 of these - all seemingly equally spaced. Spacing was impossible to tell (unable to establish height) but maybe 1-2 nautical miles. There was no sound. The strangest thing was, when they passed through around 320 degrees (travelling left to right) they just vanished. Like going behind a curtain. But stars were visible!!

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Spain declassified its air force UFO files in the 1990s; later records answer to the transparency law. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
