One day, my friend, my father, and I went fishing in a river well-known by the residents of Nova Prata, in the Gramadinho community. The river is quite small in this part of the stretch before it flows into the "Rio Sabia" in the city of Nova Bassano. This river is known for hosting many "Jundiá" fish, a native species in our southern region. After enjoying a good wild boar meat dinner in the woods and setting up all the bait for the fish, we left the woods and headed to a familiar area with the intention of crossing a small bridge on the road and reaching the other side of the river, a spot we liked and where we always had a good catch. As we left the forest, just my friend and I, we decided to light a cigarette and pause for a moment to observe the stars, which were very visible at that time, and take a break from the walk. My friend spotted something strange in the sky and quickly called me, saying, "Look! Look! That's weird." I, distracted and already hearing the plane passing by, said it was just a plane. But my friend quickly said, "No, not the plane, the other light!" pointing in a different direction. When I turned my head, I saw a bright white light, not very high, moving in a light zigzag, not too fast. I was somewhat incredulous, thinking it might be a satellite. However, the light stopped in the air just behind the house in front of us. At that moment, we looked at each other and said that we were seeing a UFO. The light remained still for about 1 minute, then shot up vertically and very fast. The sensation of seeing that was as if the light had crossed our atmosphere because as soon as it passed the ground, the light went out like a flash. This was the only time I was sure of what I saw, and to this day, we believe it was a spacecraft, as we've never seen anything similar again. We didn't have our phones with us at the time, considering it risky near the water at night, so we left them in the car. All we had was a knife, cigarettes, and flashlights. Instagram: @zottisz
