Unknown Skies: UFO Case Files begins with one of Britain’s most documented UFO incidents, the Rendlesham Forest case.
In December 1980, US Air Force personnel stationed at RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters reported strange lights in the forest outside the base perimeter. What began as a possible downed aircraft call became a multi-night military incident involving trained witnesses, formal reports, radiation readings, and the now-famous Halt Tape.
This episode reconstructs the events in Suffolk during the Cold War using timelines, witness testimony, and official records. No hype. No wild speculation. Just the case file.
In this episode:
- The first sighting in Rendlesham Forest
- Jim Penniston’s account of the object and markings
- Charles Halt’s night investigation
- The reported beam of light near the weapons storage area
- The official explanation
- Why the case still endures more than four decades later
