On this day, December 24, 1980, witnesses reported mysterious lights near RAF Woodbridge in England, an event that would later become known as “Britain’s Roswell.” Over the next few days, several members of the U.S. Air Force stationed at the nearby base observed unusual lights in Rendlesham Forest, sparking widespread speculation about UFO activity.

The incident remains one of the most compelling and debated UFO cases in history, with official reports and witness accounts fueling both skepticism and belief in extraterrestrial involvement
