During the early weeks of January 1996 in the small, Brazilian town of Varginha there began a series of events initiated by multiple sightings of a UFO crash landing that would change the town forever. From the initial sighting of the UFO and subsequent military blockade established in the town to multiple sightings and interactions with a red-eyed "creature," the Varginha Incident is one of the most compelling UFO cases of the late 20th century. While the case has not been the most well-known, it was most recently the subject of a brand new documentary, "Moment of Contact" directed by James Fox. On this episode Nik and Tom dive into and reveal the details of the case presented in the documentary and speculate on a few ideas of their own about just who or what visited the town of Varginha that fateful January.
