Main article: José Bonilla Observation On August 12, 1883, the astronomer José Bonilla reported that he saw "more than 300 dark, unidentified objects crossing before the sun" while observing sunspot activity at Zacatecas Observatory in Mexico. He took a number of wet plate photographs at 1/100th of a second exposure. Although it was later found that the objects were actually high flying geese, Bonilla is usually given the distinction of having taken the earliest photo of an "unidentified flying object".
Local residents reported a mid-air collision between a UFO and a small airplane near the town of Coyame on August 25, 1974 followed by a military investigation and cover up.

Mexican UFOlogist Jaime Maussan interpreted the videotape as "proof of alien visitation", however science writer and skeptic Michael Shermer was critical of witness accounts that "varied wildly", saying "it was like a fisherman’s tale, growing with each retelling”, while other experts suggested the lights were most likely burn off flares from oil platforms.
