On the territory of Spain in 1965, the debris of an unidentified space object fell. The Americans, suspecting that these were parts of the Soviet Vostok missile, demanded to provide them with all the source materials and documents, which was done. Now Spain has decided to declassify the US report on this fact
We are talking about report No. T67 94769, which contains eyewitness accounts of strange rays that appeared in the sky on December 6, 1965 and the discovery of 14 material units “of one or more space objects of unknown origin in the areas of Fuente de Cantos and Montemolin (Bodajoz) and Laura del Rio (Sevilla).
The spread between the debris was 100 kilometers. Immediately after the incident was reported by the local press, the American Embassy in Madrid sent the then ruler of Spain, Caudillo Francisco Franco, a letter requesting that all materials on the case be sent to the United States. Franco ordered to grant the request of the Americans in exchange for providing information on the research results.
One of those involved in the investigation of the Vicente case, Juan Ballester Olmos, the only officially known person who had access to all the materials of the case, said in an interview with El Mundo newspaper that the mentioned report would soon be posted on the Internet.
In June 1967, the American Battelle Memorial Institute presented a 300-page report entitled "Investigation of Five Metallic Bodies of Cosmic Origin." On the first page of the case there is an inscription: “Secret. For transfer exclusively to the Spanish government."
In the introduction it is written that the case was assigned the highest secrecy group, i.e. its declassification and automatic lowering of the level of secrecy are excluded. It goes on to say that the information contained in the report constitutes a threat to US national security.

Even the famous Roswell case, investigating the 1947 UFO crash in the United States and containing an autopsy report on the alien's body, is not so highly classified. Why? What is the secret behind the Spanish UFO crash case? Why did the Spanish government only partially open the curtain, even though 43 years have passed since the fall?
Report No. T67 94769 once again confirms the legitimacy of the existence of such a science as ufology. However, according to Olmos, none of the five (four Spanish and one American) reports on the UFO crash in Spain in 1965 contain conclusions that allow us to talk about the alien origin of the wreckage. There can be as many cases as you want that cannot be declassified, but this does not mean that attempts are being made to hide the reality.
“If the Ministry of Defense does not declassify those documents that talk about possible contacts with UFOs, then this means that the conclusions were not made in favor of this version. In this particular case, the wreckage found is part of the Soviet Vostok launch vehicle,”says Olmos, who was the only civilian involved in the declassification of the case between 1990 and 1999.
According to him, the Soviet Union officially announced the last launch of the Vostok rocket on March 18, 1965. According to this version, the debris that fell on the territory of Spain could not be the details of this launch vehicle, which for a long time fueled the secret about the Spanish UFO.
In reality, Olmos explains, the USSR carried out secret launches. One of these was the launch on December 3, 1965. “From the Baikonur cosmodrome, a launch vehicle with a satellite was launched in the direction of the Moon. This attempt ended in failure. The wreckage of an SL-6 (Vostok) launch vehicle fell on the territory of Spain,”he says.
Of the 14 objects described in the report, they are: a metal sphere - 40 centimeters in diameter and 5 kilograms in weight. Two cylinders 40 centimeters high and 20 centimeters in diameter. Some well-shaped parts weigh up to seven kilograms.
As El Mundo writes, the Soviet Union only in 1970 successfully carried out a soft landing on the lunar surface of the lunar rover, which transmitted the first images of the Earth's satellite. In 1965, the Americans gave the project the highest degree of secrecy, since these rules were dictated by the Cold War. They wanted to understand how far the USSR had overtaken them and, possibly, "copy" some technical solutions.
