Country with a substantial declassified Air Force UFO archive and an aviation history anchored by the 1979 Manises incident.
Spain has one of Europe's more accessible official UFO records. The Ministry of Defense's virtual library publishes roughly eighty declassified files totaling about 1,900 pages, with reports covering 1962 to 1995. The collection includes military memoranda, witness statements, sketches, photographs, and case dispositions. It documents how the Spanish Air Force handled reports; it does not imply that every file remained unexplained or involved extraordinary technology.
The best-known aviation episode is the Manises UFO Incident of November 11, 1979. The crew of a TAE Super Caravelle diverted to Valencia's Manises Airport after reporting red lights that appeared to approach the aircraft. An Air Force Mirage F1 was launched, and its pilot also reported unusual visual and instrument indications. The combination of a civilian diversion, military interception, and surviving official documentation made Manises a durable national case.
Competing explanations have focused on astronomical objects, coastal industrial lights, atmospheric conditions, radar interpretation, and misperception under a demanding nighttime flight situation. Witnesses and some investigators have rejected parts of those explanations, while the released material does not yield a universally accepted reconstruction. Manises is strongest as a documented safety event with multiple institutional participants; the identity and behavior of every reported light remain contested.
Spain's wider files give the country importance beyond one night. They show how UAP reports moved from local police, pilots, radar sites, and military commands into a national archive, and they allow later claims to be checked against contemporary paperwork. The Spanish record is consequently valuable for method as much as mystery: it supports comparisons between original statements and later retellings, shows which cases authorities considered explained or insufficiently documented, and prevents a famous episode from standing in for the country's entire history.
Hi everyone, First, I’ll leave the timestamps for the most interesting parts of the video: * 0:11 – A dim light appears in the lower part of the frame and then disappears. * 1:09 – A dim light appears from the same lower area, moving upwards, and then disappears. * 2:14 – A strong light suddenly appears and then disappears. Location: Mirador de San Julián, Liendo, Cantabria, Spain Direction: Looking north, over the sea Time: 00:58 AM (although we had been observing the phenomenon since approx...
Spain's Council for Transparency and Good Governance urges the Ministry of Defense to provide files on UAPs and their classification statuses
On November 29, 1974, Spanish UFO investigator Julio Marvizón Preney took a series of infrared photographs from a Seat 124 during a nighttime investigation at the El Condesito estate near Rociana del Condado, Huelva. When the film was developed, photograph 13 showed a large unidentified face that Marvizón and the other investigators said had not been visible when the exposure was made. The image became known as “El Condesito” and was part of a larger infrared sequence taken that night. submit...

Enjoy. I dug deep in the archives to find this. Summary / TLDR In July 1985, 23-year-old photographer Xavier C. went to Vallgorguina, Spain, and returned about 34 hours later believing only a few hours had passed. Both of his cameras contained photographs he didn’t remember taking. Under hypnosis, he described gray, wrinkled humanoids taking him to a cave, where they collected biological samples, and handled his cameras. He claimed they used his biological samples to create a duplicate of him...

Hi guys, sry if i do this wrong, it’s my first time posting on here. ive been instructed to paste this to this sub. enjoy! ---The Story In November 1947, shortly after the Roswell crash in June, Canadian war correspondent Lionel Shapiro had found blueprints that described advanced weapons of war being developed in southern Spain by Nazi scientists. One of these was an electromagnetic that could fly for thousands of kilometres, called the KM2. Apparently, European, Soviet and American intellig...
No major legacy news outlet has informed its readers how Spain’s amnesty & liberalized migration policies caused the crisis that killed 57. Most ignore them. The @NYT says it’s “too early to know.” Journalistic clown show even by the media’s debased standards. https://t.co/IBcZvoBLb3 [Quoted] Spain's @sanchezcastejon says the migrant crisis that's left 57 dead isn't his fault. But the day before it, he defended mass amnesty, saying, “Spain has never moved forward by building walls.” Practical...
Spain's @sanchezcastejon says the migrant crisis that's left 57 dead isn't his fault. But the day before it, he defended mass amnesty, saying, “Spain has never moved forward by building walls.” Practically everything he's said about mass migration, including for GDP, is false. https://t.co/FWsshXD6S9
