The mystical fog. Chile

Chilean drivers Carlos Acevedo and Miguel Angel Moya were taking part in the Vuelta a la America del Sur Rally in a Citroen No. 102. After 02:30 hours on 23 September 1978 (with the Argentinean UFO wave in full swing) they drove through Viedma, where they stopped for fuel, and crossed Carmen de Patagones on their way to Bahía Blanca. Minutes later, they crossed the exit to the town of Cardela Cagliero, and upon reaching the area of the Agarrobo nitrate field around 02:50 hours, they noticed "a bright light approaching at high speed from behind". The car's passenger compartment became filled with a cloudy yellow light with purple shades. Acevedo, at the wheel, realized they were floating some two meters over the pavement. Amid nervous and shouts, the car came to rest on the paved surface once again endless seconds later. The light diminished and things slowly returned to normal. At the same time, both drivers observed a luminous cone flying away to the West. They got out of the vehicle, and ascertaining that all was normal, continued to drive, reaching Pedro Luro only fifteen meters later. They had covered 130 kilometers in a little less than twenty minutes!
