During a series of military exercises conducted by the Luftwaffe in 1940, an unidentified flying object was reportedly captured passing through a dense smoke screen used for battlefield simulation. These images, once classified, have resurfaced and sparked renewed interest among UFO researchers and historians alike. According to those familiar with the archive, the photos were part of a secret German military file and show a disc-shaped object navigating above the exercise zone—clearly visible despite the obscuring smoke. What makes these photos particularly intriguing is the historical context. In the early 1940s, technology was nowhere near advanced enough to explain such a craft.

In The Lost World of the Kalahari, Laurens van der Post recounts his time living among the indigenous people of the Kalahari Desert . He describes their shock when they discovered that he couldn’t hear the stars. At first, they assumed he was joking or lying. But when they realized he truly couldn’t hear them, they were deeply saddened.
