The 1982 Soviet UFO Nuclear Encounter

from Alien UFO Podcast · host Simon Bown

These stories, from Ukraine in 1982 and Vandenberg Air Force Base in 1964, have stunned military insiders and UFO researchers for decades.What happens when unidentified flying objects appear at the most secure nuclear sites on Earth? And what does it mean when those same objects seem to control or disable missiles with ease?In Ukraine, 1982, Soviet missile officers witnessed something that defied all logic. A huge, glowing disc-shaped object appeared over a nuclear missile base near the city of Bershad. Within minutes, control panels in the underground bunker lit up, the launch sequence had begun. The codes were entered automatically, and the countdown started. No one had touched the controls. The officers could only watch in horror as their nuclear weapons prepared to fire. Then, as suddenly as it began, the system shut down. The glowing craft rose silently into the night sky and disappeared. Moscow’s official investigation listed the cause as “unknown interference.”Eighteen years earlier, a similar event took place on the other side of the world. At Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, U.S. Air Force officers were tracking a test missile over the Pacific Ocean. During the flight, radar and cameras picked up a bright, disc-shaped UFO that approached the missile at incredible speed. The object circled the missile several times, fired flashes of light at it, and the warhead was instantly disabled. The missile dropped out of flight. The entire encounter was filmed, but the footage was confiscated and classified. The officers involved, including Lieutenant Robert Jacobs and Major Florenze Mansmann, later confirmed that what they saw was no illusion. They said it was intelligent, precise, and deliberate.Both incidents reveal a pattern that can’t be ignored: UFOs and nuclear weapons seem to be connected. During the Cold War, similar reports came from bases across the United States and the Soviet Union, glowing discs hovering over missile silos, nuclear systems shutting down or activating on their own, and radar contacts showing unknown craft moving with impossible speed.In this episode, the host of the Alien UFO Podcast explores these two historic encounters, drawing on witness testimony, declassified information, and research by UFO investigators like Robert Hastings, who has spent decades studying the UFO–nuclear connection.Were these UFOs showing us that our weapons are not as secure as we think? Were they sending a warning, or protecting humanity from itself?Tune in to this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast to discover how these extraordinary events may prove that someone, or something, is keeping a close watch on Earth’s most dangerous weapons. https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/ https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcast https://simonbown.com/ My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
