Shelburne 1960 UFO Incident Highlighted at Yarmouth Expo: NATO DEFCON 1 Moment and Distinction from Shag Harbour

To the point

At a Yarmouth UFO expo, Chris Styles argued that a 1960 Shelburne harbour incident is a separate, earlier mystery from the 1967 Shag Harbour case, sharing testimonies like Harry’s about warships encountering underwater objects and aliens, divers’ sightings during naval activity, and a Cape Scott ship log showing a NATO exercise briefly hitting DEFCON 1, and saying the evidence isn’t definitive yet and a book is planned; the event also included a Shag Harbour segment with Laurie Wickens and a panel of Nick Pope, David Marler, Debbie Ziegelmeyer, and Rob Swiatek discussing future sightings and how smartphones could capture them, with Styles insisting Shelburne has its own timeline and he continues to seek corroboration for more answers.

There were aliens in the water: Research into 1960 Shelburne incident shared at UFO expo in Yarmouth

Renowned UFO researcher Chris Styles presented new evidence at a Yarmouth expo suggesting a 1960 Shelburne harbour incident predates the 1967 Shag Harbour case, including testimonies from a man known as Harry about Canadian and U.S. warships conducting mine-sweeps encountering underwater objects and aliens, divers reporting sightings beneath naval activity, and memories of warship crews entering battle stations and decompression; a breakthrough came when Styles located HMCS Cape Scott’s ship log showing a NATO exercise in October 1960 briefly went to DEFCON 1, implying a heightened war footing rather than a simple sighting, and although the stories add texture, Styles says they do not yet provide definitive answers and he plans to publish a book detailing the investigation, while the expo also featured a Shag Harbour segment with a bus tour to the crash site and eyewitness Laurie Wickens describing the shoreline sighting tied to the 1967 event, with panelists Nick Pope, David Marler, Debbie Ziegelmeyer, and Rob Swiatek speculating about a future mass sighting and the nature of extraterrestrial technology, noting smartphones could capture such events, and Styles maintains that the Shelburne case is a separate mystery with its own timeline as he continues to seek corroborating sources and keep open the possibility that more answers may emerge.
