On February 10, 1951, a United States Navy aircraft flying from Iceland to Gander, Newfoundland, reported a near-collision with a large, orange, circular UFO object. The object was described by the co-pilot as “almost literally flew circles around” the American aircraft before speeding away.Â
​Co-pilot Graham Bethune reported that he and the pilot observed the orange, circular UFO object above the ocean for four to five minutes. Just after they called it to the attention of the rest of the crew, the UFO abruptly changed its angle of attack and moved toward the plane, leading to the near-collision.
​The UFO object was reportedly detected by ground radar in Gander, corroborating the visual sighting from the aircraft.
A full, official report was filed and investigated by the government. According to UFO author Jerome Clark, the United States Air Force concluded that the UFO sighting was a high-altitude research balloon or the planet Venus.
​Co-pilot Bethune, however, rejected the official explanation. He maintained that he had seen a gray UFO disc that hovered and then accelerated away with great speed and erratic maneuvers, unlike a weather balloon or a celestial object. He claimed that Navy commanders and Naval Intelligence officers also interviewed him and appeared convinced that the UFO object was real and unidentified. NOTE: The above image is C.G.I.
