A former U.S. Air Force officer has come forward with a stunning allegation: UFOs shut down 20 nuclear missiles in just eight days. And he is not alone.
In March 1967, something strange happened at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana. Ten Minuteman I intercontinental ballistic missiles — each armed with nuclear warheads — suddenly became inoperative. The cause? A glowing red object hovering above the front gate of the facility.
It was not an isolated incident.

Researchers have now documented over 120 former service members who witnessed UFOs near nuclear weapon sites. The pattern is consistent and terrifying: UFO shows up, nuclear systems fail. UFO leaves, systems work again.
The Malmstrom Incident
Robert Salas was a young ICBM launch officer at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana on that fateful night in March 1967. He was overseeing 10 Minuteman nuclear missiles when base security informed him of a mysterious red glowing object in the sky above the front gate.
According to Salas, minutes later, all 10 missiles went offline simultaneously. The systems were rendered inoperative — and no one could explain why.
As CBS News reported, this was not the only incident. On March 16, 1967, another 10 nuclear missiles at the Echo flight facility at Malmstrom were shut down following an encounter with an unknown object from above.
In total, 20 nuclear missiles were disabled in just eight days.
According to the Wikipedia, Salas signed a 2010 affidavit regarding his 1967 incident, hoping the move would help other veterans come forward with their own accounts of unexplained activity.
The Pattern: UFOs and Nuclear Sites
The Malmstrom incident was not an aberration. Researchers have documented a disturbing pattern spanning decades:
- 1966-1976: At least 21 incidents at nuclear missile bases
- UFOs tracked missile silos: Objects were seen hovering directly over weapons storage areas
