On may 23, 1971, around 12: 30, one of the most convincing UFO photos was taken by a certain Rudi Nagora, a Munich musician. Nagora and his wife were vacationing near St. Lorenzen (Styria, Austria).

After finding a suitable place to Park his car, Nagora left his wife in the car while he looked around the area before the two of them decided to get out. 

Suddenly, he heard a "whistling" sound from above. Looking up, he clearly saw a shining silver disk that was between him and the cloud. The object moved in a zigzag pattern. He ran to his car, told his wife what he had seen, and grabbed the camera.

Pointing the Agfa-Click camera at the subject, he took a full film of the image (12 frames), capturing several stunning images. Now, outside the film, Nagora could see the object come even closer and then" shoot " straight up, disappearing into the clouds.

After about 5 minutes of inspection and videotaping, Nagora took his film to Munich. 

Engineer-researcher of the UFO Adolf Seigenthaler heard about the photos and began to investigate their observations. After careful study, Nagoras ' photos were found to be reliable by several reliable experts. The photos have never been refuted, and today they show that we are not alone.

________________________________

On May 23, 1971 at about 12:30 P M, one of the most convincing photographs of a UFO was taken by one Rudi Nagora, a Munich musician. Nagora, along with his wife, were vacationing near St. Lorenzen, Styria, Austria.

After finding a suitable place to park his car, Nagora left his wife inside the vehicle while he scouted the general area before the two of them ventured out. Suddenly, he heard a “whizzing” sound coming from above. Looking up, he could clearly see a shining, silver disc which was between him and the cloud plane. The object was moving in a zig-zag pattern. He ran back to his car, told his wife what he had seen, and grabbed his camera.

Pointing his Agfa-Click camera at the object, he took a full roll of 12 exposures, capturing several stunning images. Now out of film, Nagora could see the object come even closer, and then shoot straight up, disappearing through the clouds.

After the approximately 5 minute sighting and film taking session, Nagora took his film back to Munich. UFO researcher Engineer Adolf Geigenthaler heard about the photographs, and began an investigation into the sighting. After careful examination, Nagoras photos were deemed legitimate by several reliable experts. The photos have never been debunked, and still testify today that we are not alone.
