Expand all Collapse all Magenta UFO The alleged Magenta UFO crash is a claim that an unknown craft came down in Lombardy, northern Italy, in 1933, was recovered under Benito Mussolini’s Fascist regime, studied by a secret group called Cabinet RS/33, and later taken by the United States near the end of the Second World War. 211 pages Read more AARO What Official UAP Reviews Mean for Magenta Official US reviews have not verified extraterrestrial technology, which shapes how the Magenta claim is assessed. 7 pages +Show subtopics Read more Kona Blue Can Rumour Become Government Process?
