From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Esteban Peñate claimed to have encountered a UFO in 1974 at the age of 15. During the incident he says experienced paralysis, which categorizes the encounter as a Close Encounter of the Second Kind.
[edit] Peñate’s life
Esteban Peñate lived with his parents in a farm named La Borralla, located in Huelva, Spain, some 8 kilometers away from the border with Portugal. His family was responsible for monitoring of the farm.
[edit] Encounters
Neither Esteban, nor his parents remember the exact date of the encounter, but they know it occured during the summer of 1974.
During the evening, Juan Peñate asked his son Esteban to go to a tree located in an orchard, a kilometer away, to collect some packs of cigarettes that the shepherd of the farm had left.
Esteban walked to the orchard, picked up the packs of cigarettes, and started going back home. After some steps, he felt a strong heat and decided to stop. When he looked up, he saw a big, round, and intensely bright blackberry-colored object. He also noted that the bright UFO didn’t illuminate anything around it. Scared, Esteban attempted to escape, but was unable to move any part of his body even though he was able to see, hear, and feel.
His paralysis lasted for the next ten minutes, during which time he spent trying to memorize as much information as possible from the shape of the UFO to the details of things happening around him. He found it strange that there was no sound in the area and that the normal partridges activity in the area has stopped (his guess was that the partridges were also paralyzed). He also noticed that the UFO never move.
The UFO then starts to move and fly towards Portugal, during which time Esteban recovers from his paralysis and starts running home.The UFO then starts to move and fly towards Portugal, during which time Esteban recovers from his paralysis and starts running home.
During the night of the counter, Esteban could not sleep. He walked towards the window several times to observe the sky. The next day, he went to the spot were the encounter occurred, but was unable to find anything strange. However, the superior part of the tree where the cigarettes were left was yellow-colored. The same applied to a pear tree nearby.
A few days afterwards, Juan Peñate encounters another spaceship with the same characteristics as the one seen by his son Esteban.
