Ep.28 The Socorro Sighting

On April 24, 1964, in the dusty desert of Socorro, New Mexico, police officer Lonnie Zamora witnessed something that would shake UFO history. While pursuing a speeding car, he spotted a roaring, flame-spewing object in the sky, landing in a remote gully. Approaching, he saw a gleaming, egg-shaped craft and two small, humanoid figures nearby. Moments later, the craft blasted off, leaving scorched earth and physical evidence. In this episode of Brief Encounters, host Nik unpacks Zamora’s credible, chilling account, the physical traces investigated by Project Blue Book, and why this case remains one of the most compelling UFO sightings on record. Was it a secret military test, a hoax, or an encounter with something beyond Earth? Join us as we revisit this pivotal moment in UFO lore.
