The Amazon rainforest, a place often associated with vast biodiversity and hidden natural wonders, has recently become the focus of UFO research. Brazilian UFO researcher Rony Vernet has discovered extraordinary phenomena that indicate the presence of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) deep in this dense jungle.
In a recent episode of ‘Reality Check with Ross Coulthart’, Vernet shared his findings after an expedition to the Amazon rainforest, specifically a remote area near the border of Brazil and Peru. Vernet’s trip was inspired by a long history of unexplained UAP incidents in the region, dating back to at least the mid-1970s.
Background information on UAP activity in the Amazon
The Amazon and surrounding areas have been hotspots for UAP sightings for decades. In 1977, a series of UAP incidents in the Brazilian states of Pará and Maranhão attracted widespread attention. Hundreds of people reported being struck by UAP beams, especially around the town of Colares. These incidents led to Operation Saucer (Operação Prato), an investigation by the Brazilian Air Force, during which no unusual phenomena were officially found. However, locals reported injuries consistent with microwave burns, and some even claimed that these rays of light killed people.
In more recent years, there have been continued reports of UAP activity. In 2013, unidentified aerial phenomena were observed over a village in Acre, Brazil, near the Peruvian border. In 2014, these sightings escalated to UAPs descending on the village and sending beams of light at indigenous people, prompting an investigation by the National Indigenous Foundation and federal authorities.
Vernet’s expedition and findings
Driven by these historical reports, Vernet embarked on an expedition to the Yanawa indigenous tribe in Acre province. His goal was to gather first-hand evidence of these phenomena. Over the course of his investigation, Vernet experienced a series of unexplained events, starting with what he described as poltergeist-like activity.
During his first night in the jungle, Vernet reported hearing loud, metallic noises with no apparent source. These sounds resembled furniture being dragged across a wooden floor, but there were no structures nearby that could produce such sounds. Despite thorough investigation, Vernet and his team were unable to find any logical explanations for these events.
The next night, Vernet explored an abandoned house in the jungle, which was filled with objects as if its inhabitants had suddenly left. Here he and his team felt an overwhelming sense of fear and coldness, unlike anything they had experienced before. The eerie environment only added to the mystery of the phenomena they were investigating.
Encounters with luminous atmospheres
As Vernet continued his research, he began to observe luminous phenomena. Indigenous peoples often reported seeing orange or yellow orbs, described as golden fireballs, floating near their homes. These orbs often appeared on the roofs, seemingly observing the inhabitants. Remarkably, when someone tried to point at the orbs or come into direct contact with them, they immediately disappeared.
On one occasion, while setting up the monitoring equipment, Vernet and his team witnessed a large, red-orange sphere less than a meter from the ground and only about five meters away from them. Despite its brightness, the orb made no sound and one could stare at it without discomfort. When Vernet tried to capture the phenomenon with a drone, the sphere circumvented the shot by somehow remaining invisible to the drone’s camera, despite being clearly visible to the naked eye.
Technological and sensor data
Vernet’s research was not limited to visual observations. He brought along a variety of advanced equipment, including thermal cameras, cosmic ray sensors, infrasound detectors and microwave antennas, to collect as much data as possible. During these encounters, he specifically discovered a 1.6 GHz signal, a frequency also observed during similar phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch in the United States.
Although some of its sensors were not fully operational during the first few nights, Vernet plans to analyze the collected data to find correlations between the visual phenomena and the sensor measurements. His initial findings suggest that the UAPs may have the ability to disrupt electronic devices, as evidenced when camera equipment and flashlights malfunctioned during observations.
Indigenous perspectives and scientific interpretation
Indigenous communities in the Amazon have their own interpretations of these phenomena, often relating them to spiritual beliefs. For example, the Yanawa tribe views certain parts of the forest as portals through which beings from the spirit world enter our reality. Vernet’s research, which combines modern scientific methods with indigenous knowledge, aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these mysterious events.
Conclusion
Rony Vernet’s research into the UAP phenomenon in the Amazon has provided compelling evidence that these mysterious lights and sounds are more than mere folklore. His findings suggest a highly intelligent phenomenon capable of interacting with and evading human observation. As Vernet continues to analyze the data and collaborate with other scientists, his work could bring us closer to understanding the Amazon rainforest’s enigmatic UAPs.
The combination of scientific research and indigenous wisdom in Vernet’s approach sets a new precedent for UAP research. By respecting and integrating the knowledge of local communities, researchers like Vernet are paving the way for a more holistic understanding of these phenomena, which could one day unlock the secrets of the Amazon.
