🚨The 1956 Afghanistan UFO Crash That Disappeared

In Jan 1956, Afghan officials reported a metallic saucer with glass windows that landed near Baghlan. They tried to haul it to Kabul. U.S. intel called it “probably a balloon.” What really happened? 🧵 Image
2/
On Jan 24, 1956, Kabul’s Bakhtar News reported “flying saucers” across Afghanistan, round, square, glowing. Sightings spanned Herat, Behsud, Shala, and more.

Blue Book logged it as case #7340.
3/
Then something surprising happened. The Governor of Kataghan Province reported an actual landing near 36°25’N, 69°05’E.
Description: 15 m circumference with a metal body, thick glass windows along the edge, saucer shaped, “moving object”
4/
Locals allegedly tried to transport the craft to Kabul for the Minister of Defense.
Quote: “Afghans attempting transport… not certain vehicle is available.”

Imagine the villagers hauling a UFO across the Hindu Kush.😂
5/
The U.S. Air attache in Kabul was alerted. A flight was scheduled for Jan 25, 1956 to confirm. But… suddenly, the operation was cancelled.
The was no follow up, no recovered craft in the archives, just total silence. Suspect right?
6/
Blue Book closed the case with the label:
“Was Balloon / Probably Balloon. Insufficient data for evaluation.”
How does a metal saucer with windows become a balloon? It seems to me like AARO took a leaf right out of Blue Book. #DefendAARO.
7/
The questions this raises for me are:
Did Kabul’s Ministry of Defense recover the craft?
Why was the U.S. recon flight cancelled?
Was it covered up before American eyes could confirm?
8/
This forgotten 1956 Afghanistan file reads like a Roswell in the Hindu Kush.
Officially: “balloon.”
Unofficially: A metallic saucer was on the ground.
The truth likely never made it into the Blue Book files.

🚨 The UAP Disclosure Act just hit another wall 🚨

At the heart of the fight over UFO transparency sits one man... Sen. Roger Wicker. His substitute amendment to the NDAA quietly erased the UAPDA.

Here’s how it went down 🧵👇

#UAP #UFOs #Disclosure Image
2/
On Sept 9, 2025, Congress held a rare bipartisan hearing on UAPs. Whistleblowers described retaliation, crash retrieval programs, and secrecy that shocked even seasoned intelligence veterans.

Momentum was building... Or so it would seem.
3/
Enter the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) the one bill Congress must pass each year. Advocates pushed to attach the UAP Disclosure Act (UAPDA) to it.

This was the best legislative shot at UFO transparency.

🚨2025: The Year of Three Cosmic Wanderers ☄️👽
This fall the skies bring us:
3I/ATLAS only the 3rd confirmed interstellar visitor

C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) A once in a millennium comet

C/2025 R2 (SWAN) A fresh binocular comet lighting up dawn

Here’s why astronomers are watching all 3. 🧵👇Image
2/
3I/ATLAS
Only the 3rd interstellar object ever seen, after Oumuamua & Borisov.
It carries a strange green glow, an anti-tail, and a trajectory that will bring it within 29 million km of Mars on Oct 3, 2025.
We don’t know its nucleus size, estimates run from 5km to 15+ km. Image
3/
C/2025 A6 (Lemmon)
Discovered Jan 2025 by the Mount Lemmon Survey.
On Nov 8, 2025 it reaches perihelion just 0.53 AU from the Sun.
A predicted peak brightness of mag 4–6 (naked eye).
Its orbital period is 1,350 years inbound, shortened to 1,155 outbound, this is literally a once in a millennium visitor.Image

🚨 THREAD: Soviet UFO Craft Encounters in the THREAD-3 Files G.Knapp Files

Everyone talks about US black projects.

But did you know the Soviets had their own secret UFO program? THREAD-3.

And buried in those files are reports of actual craft flying low over cities. Not just lights, actual craft.🧵👇Image

Case 1: Nalchik, 1989

Locals looked up and saw a giant object 150 meters long. It had rows of rectangular windows glowing bright… and at the front were two scanning beams sweeping the streets.

It moved completely silently.
3/
This thing wasn’t zipping like a jet. It floated slow, about 100 km/h just 100 meters above the ground.

People watched as it cruised over their neighborhoods, turning along streets like it was mapping the city.

🚨The Soviet Union’s Secret UAP Program “THREAD-3”

In the late Cold War, the Soviet Ministry of Defense launched THREAD-3, a classified program to study “Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena” (AAP).🧵👇 Image
2/
THREAD-3 was greenlit in 1991, just before the USSR collapsed. It pulled in some of the USSR’s sharpest minds:

Institute of Radio Engineering & Electronics, Institute of Space Research and Bauman Moscow Technical University.

This was not fringe, it was state science.
3/
The program split into projects:

Horizon-MD (instrumental observation)
Pluton-7 (radiation & plasma effects)
AAP data bank
“Search for regularities” in flight dynamics

Basically, the goal was to build the first Soviet “UAP profile.”

🚨3I/ATLAS is building a plasma shell.

Not just a dusty coma, an organized, layered, electromagnetic cocoon that’s evolving as it dives toward the Sun. If you care about UAP-adjacent plasma physics, magnetotails, and field-structured matter… lean in. 🧵👇Image
1/
What we’re seeing
Polarimetry shows an unusually deep negative polarization branch and a delayed flip to positive signatures that don’t match normal comets. In short, the light scattering is being shaped by unconventional dust/plasma physics, not a vanilla ice and dust cloud.
2/
Rings, ripples, layers
Across small changes in phase angle, 3I/ATLAS swings from negative to positive polarization with sharp structure, consistent with filaments and double layers in a dusty plasma where E & B fields organize particles over vast scales. That’s what you’d expect in a magnetized environment, not random outgassing.

🚨NORAD Admits 3 UAP Shootdowns In Writing

Canada’s Parliament asked for answers. NORAD replied: Three “Unknown Tracks” were classified as UAP and tactically engaged on Feb 10–12, 2023 (Alaska, Yukon, Lake Huron). Let’s unpack what the doc actually says and what it dodges.🧵👇 Image
2/
The document is an “Information Paper on NORAD UAP Response Since January 2023.”
Prepared for Canadian MPs via Order Paper Question Q-3227. Dated 10 Dec 2024. Marked UNCLASSIFIED.
3/
Headline figures:
• 3 tracks labeled UAP since Jan 1, 2023
• All 3 triggered military response
• NORAD engaged (shot down) all three:
Feb 10: North Slope, Alaska
Feb 11: Yukon
Feb 12: Lake Huron (debris into Canadian waters) Image
