Story
Between 1989 and 1991, Belgium became the center of a major wave of unidentified flying object sightings.
Thousands of witnesses reported seeing massive triangular craft equipped with powerful lights and capable of unusual maneuvers.
The reports came from ordinary citizens, police officers, pilots, and military personnel, quickly attracting official attention.
Several sightings were reportedly detected by military radar systems, prompting the Belgian Air Force to launch an official investigation.
