CROP
CIRCLES IN BRAZILIAN OF STATE OF SANTA CATARINA AGAIN
For the
seventh year in a row the phenomenon manifested in Ipuaçu, Santa
Catarina state, making certain its non-human and intelligent nature.

They have
appeared again, in pair and at their usual period in Brazil –
between the last few days of October and first few days of November.
The location the two first crop circles of 2014 season were found
this Sunday morning, October 26, around 7:30 AM, is a slope in Mr.
Angelo Alessio’s property. His farm has already been target for crop
circles in previous years. This time, it was one of the few which
had not had its wheat reaped, like most other properties in the
vicinity.
One of the
two glyphs was visible from the dirt road SCT-451. It was an immense
harmonic figure, with approximately 500 to 650 feet (150 – 200
meters), as estimated by the local police department from Santa
Catarina. It had internal and external circles in geometric
formations. Unfortunately, very few were able to actually see the
crop circle or even photograph it since it was destroyed that same
morning by order of the farm owner, which demanded his foreman to
run the crop tractor over it.
ONLY
VISIBLE FROM ABOVE
The second
circle was no farther than 650 feet due east of the first and about
1.2 miles from the road that connects Bom Jesus to Ipuaçu, and about
2 miles from the city. Regardless of the proximity, however, it was
no possible to see the crop circle neither from the road nor from
closer – via rural roads that go through the property, about 1.000
feet from the circle. In fact, even being inside the circle and
walking within its elements and “hallways” did not yield a complete
view of its shape, since it was very large. It became necessary to
use the Brazilian UFO Magazine’s drone, a Phantom 2 Vision Plus
model with stabilizing 14 megapixel camera, that also records in
high definition (full HD).
The
frustration from arriving in Ipuaçu, some short few hours after the
discovery of the crop circle, and after traveling close to 270 miles
in only 5 hours, only to find one of them destroyed, gave place to
amazement and surprise as soon as the drone was activated and began
photographing in various altitudes. From above, about 1.600 feet,
was possible to contemplate the extensive second crop circle still
intact. Its shape even appalled the two police officers assigned by
their commander to clarify the facts. Both drill sergeants, Leandro
de Oliveira and Evandro de Oliveira, have 20 and 18 years of
service.
COMPLEX
AND ELEGANT PATTERN
From the
photos and high definition video recordings made by the Brazilian
UFO Magazine it was possible to observe the second crop circle still
intact (photo). It is possible to describe them as joining two sets
of elements. From one side, a ring of about 260 feet in diameter of
folded plants in clockwise direction with a central circle of about
40 feet, also of folded plants in clockwise direction. From the
other side, a set of two circles and two semi-circles of different
thickness, some thin, others thicker, totaling about 200 feet in
diameter. The intersection of the two sets created a semi-circle in
the interior of the second set.
After
completely recording all data from the intact crop circle, which had
my focus since the other was already lost, I also measured its
electromagnetic condition, finding it normal and identical to the
external crop circle field. Subsequently visited the first crop
circle and, even though destroyed, was evaluated, photographed from
the ground and above, and video recorded from various angles with
the drone. It was only possible to ascertained, from above, the
external ring, of approximate size estimated between 500 to 650 feet
in diameter. The internal elements irreversibly destroyed.
NEW
DESTRUCTION
While
filming the deteriorated crop circle with the drone, the group of
spectators gathered at the site, including the Police Officers,
heard the crop machine operating again. Sadly, at 5.00 PM, Mr.
Angelo Aléssio decided and ordered his foreman to terminate the crop
circle that was still intact. Nothing remained. To my luck, and
counting the time as a significant factor of extreme importance, I
was able to arrive in time to record the images of the circle. At
that point, and regardless of the complaints from the citizens of
Ipuaçu, both crop circles were destroyed. In cases of crop circle
researches, examining the facts ‘in locu’ as quickly as possible
ensures the quality of the work.
The farm
owner’s decision to reap the internal and external elements of the
circles is due to his fear that the curious individuals that come to
visit the location could cause even more damage to his crops. Mr.
Aléssio did not want to make any statements, but according to his
foreman, it was clear that he does not tolerate any destruction of
his crops, not by the crop circles, but by curious spectators.
Unfortunately, other local farmers have acted the same way. Several
times, I have attempted to speak with the city mayor, Denilso Casal,
to request the circles to be isolated. None were addressed.
FIELD
INVESTIGATION
For the
seventh consecutive year, always around the same time, always at the
same geo-location, the crop circles have manifested. This time more
gallant than in previous years, though rivaling the beauty of 2013’s
season, but not in size. To this day, no explanation has been found
for such designs to appear so suddenly at such location and always
around the same time of year. What is known for certain, without a
doubt, that the images were constructed by some sort of non-human
intelligent life. What they mean is also to be discovered. The
answer will only come after diligent research, which is exactly what
the UFO Magazine has been doing for seven years, and counting.
