It's an overcast day in January 1954.

A small fishing boat bobs on the waters of the Ligurian Sea off the northeast coast of

Italy.

Giovanni de Marcos been a fisherman all his life and he knows these waters well.

He heads to the back of the bogeon starts turning the winch to haul in his net.

Giovanni empties the catch onto the deck and then stands back as the tuna and sea bream

thrash around.

He's about to sort through his catch when he hears a faint hum high in the sky.

It's an unusual sound but when he's been hearing more and more, the sound of one of

those newfangled jet planes flying overhead.

He looks up hoping to catch a glimpse of the aircraft but all he sees are grey clouds.

Disappointed, he returns to his fish.

But then…

Here's a boom.

DeMarco jerks his head up but sees nothing.

Then he spots something.

A large metallic object falls through the sky leaving a trail of dark black smoke.

He watches as more objects rain down, hitting the water several miles away.

He quickly starts his engine and speeds to the spot when the objects are crashing into

the sea.
