The teachers staid that it was “an orange half-moon that turned into a huge sphere.”

De la Garma, Argentina – Four schoolteachers from Neuquén reported having seen an alleged UFO yesterday as they headed to a school in the De la Garma region.

"We started to see an orange half-moon that turned into a huge sphere, and we took some photos of it with our cellphones," said María Inés Martos, the principal of the local school, in a radio interview with Radio LU24.

According to Martos, the UFO sighting took place at around 7:30 before it "vanished swiftly into the horizon."

According to the diariodenecochea.com website, the event occurred as the instructors headed to the De la Garma school. At that time, they stopped at Monte Chueco to look at the inexplicable phenomenon and take pictures of the object.
