On Tuesday evening, the Milan airport control tower and several other witnesses were able to see a strange luminous object. It flew horizontally and headed towards the airport control tower, quickly, without however appearing on the radar screens.
At first one thought it was a plane, headlights on, ready to land, but the U.F.O. suddenly changed course and headed towards the center of Milan where it hovered vertically above the "Pirelli" skyscraper before heading north again and disappearing.
