Publisher's Synopsis
The UFO landing at Socorro has been wrapped in controversy almost from the moment that police officer, Lonnie Zamora, watched a craft descend and land. Zamora saw alien beings near the craft and a symbol on its side but was told that he shouldn't mention either. ENCOUNTER IN THE DESERT REVEALS - for the first time - exactly what he saw in that arroyo in 1964 and what an examination of the landing revealed to investigators. Socorro wasn't a stand-alone case. Other sightings, some of them nearly as spectacular as Zamora's, were reported at the time. A study of the Air Force investigation of this case reveals an effort, at first, to learn the truth that mutated into a clever attempt to hide the information from the public. ENCOUNTER IN THE DESERT REVEALS reveals all this and much more, including: · The first new, in-depth look at the Zamora UFO landing in more than three decades. · Other reports of alien creatures sighted around the country at the same time. · An examination of the physical evidence found on the landing site. · The revelation that there were other witnesses to the craft and the landing.
