A bright cloud over the ocean, captured by a terrified guard with her cell phone, will be among the recent cases of UFO sightings discussed and debated over by Chilean scientists and authorities at the tourist city of Viña del Mar, where there the "UFO Bicentennial: 200 years of sightings" conference will be held.

The recording, captured in February 2009 in Puerto Montt (1,080 kilometers south of Santiago), shows a possible UFO, and Chilean image analyst, Marcelo Moya, believes it is one of the three most important records in recent times in his country.

UFOs are commonly reported in Chile, and as such the government has decided to re-establish it's 'Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena (CEFA)', as a department under the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, for analysis of UFO footage from a scientific perspective.

The CEFA is headed by the retired general of the Air Force of Chile Ricardo Bermudez, who will be among the exhibitors at the conference this Thursday and Friday in Viña del Mar. Data and testimonies collected by this institution will be on display including the images below.

Chileans do tend to look up at the sky for is search of UFOs according to Rodrigo Fuenzalida, president of the Association of Research Ovniológicas (AION). He believes this is because "no place in the country exists where they have not witnessed apparitions of UFOs."
