Danny Jones·True Crime & MysteryNuclear Warfare Officer WARNS Unknown Objects Stalking Nuke Launch Sites | Robert Salas
TL;DR
On March 24, 1967, UFOs hovered over Malmstrom Air Force Base and simultaneously knocked all 10 nuclear Minuteman missiles offline.
Key Points
- 1.Robert Salas was a nuclear missile launch officer at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, responsible for monitoring and launching 10 Minuteman I ICBMs from 60 feet underground.
- 2.Around 9:30–10 PM on March 24, 1967, his topside security guard reported multiple lights making impossible maneuvers — instant stops, 90-degree turns, no engine sound — directly overhead the base.
- 3.Minutes later the guard called back screaming: a pulsating red light was hovering directly above the front gate while armed guards pointed weapons at it; one guard was injured during the encounter.
- 4.Almost simultaneously, all 10 Minuteman missiles flipped from green (ready) to red (no-go) on the status board — a total simultaneous shutdown that had never happened in Salas's 3 years there.
- 5.Guards sent to investigate two missile sites saw the lights hovering directly above the silos and were too terrified to proceed; they also lost radio contact on the way back.
- 6.The missiles were down for approximately 1–2 days; Boeing engineers later determined an external electromagnetic signal had individually penetrated triple-shielded cabling to disable each missile's logic coupler guidance system.
- 7.Eight days earlier on March 16, 1967, a separate UFO incident at Malmstrom's Echo Flight also knocked out 10 missiles — meaning within 8 days, UFOs disabled 20 nuclear weapons at the same base.
- 8.Across two years (1966–1967), Salas has documented four separate incidents at multiple bases (Malmstrom, Minot/Wurtsmith, Vandenberg) where UFOs caused 10 missiles each to go offline — 40 total nuclear weapons disabled.
- 9.The morning after, Salas and his commander were forced to sign NDAs threatening up to 30 years in Leavenworth Prison if they ever disclosed the incident to anyone, including family.
- 10.The Air Force's Condon UFO investigation (University of Colorado, 1966–1968) deliberately omitted the missile shutdown incidents despite being directly informed by Sylvania contractor Ray Fowler, who had workers at Malmstrom during both events.
- 11.At Vandenberg AFB in 1964, Lt. Robert Jacobs filmed a UFO on specialized tracking equipment firing a beam of light at a dummy nuclear warhead during an Atlas missile test, knocking it off course; the CIA confiscated the film.
- 12.The Wall Street Journal published a piece attempting to explain the shutdown as either a secret Air Force EMP test or a hazing ritual — explanations Salas dismisses as nonsensical given the triple-redundant power systems and multiple corroborating witnesses.
