An oil rig worker in Mexico witnessed an astonishing sight.
In October 2023, he captured images of two unidentified flying objects (UFOs) hovering above the oil rig's deck.
According to the eyewitness, the two UFOs appeared as the rig's legs were being lowered to the seafloor.
One of the objects had a saucer shape with around 10 circular lights encircling its base. The other had a triangular design with three lights underneath.

One of the UFOs was described as resembling the rumored "Aurora" aircraft, allegedly developed by the U.S. government in the 1980s.
This hypothetical craft was believed to be capable of extreme speeds up to Mach 11.8. However, the existence of the Aurora remains unproven.
