Reference source indexed “Colares Operation Saucer” in connection with the public record around Colares Operation Saucer, a 1977 UFO/UAP dossier centered on Colares, Para, Brazil. The source is useful because it fixes a checkable part of the record: who published the material, what topic it addressed, and how it connects to the timeline, witness layer, official response or later research around the case.

The accessible source text states: Operation Plate was an investigation carried out between 1977 and 1978 by the Brazilian Air Force following alleged UFO sightings on the island of Colares. The investigation was closed after finding no unusual phenomena. In the archive context, that material is treated as a primary or secondary record to be compared with the case chronology rather than as a standalone proof of an extraordinary origin.

For Colares Operation Saucer, the relevant evidence categories include Brazilian Air Force investigation, witness reports, photographs. The source should therefore be read alongside the dossier's witness accounts, timeline, evidence analysis and skeptical notes, especially where the material concerns official statements, video records, archival summaries or media reports.

The evidence boundary remains important. A source page can document that a report, document, video or database entry exists, but it does not by itself establish that the object or event was anomalous. This local record preserves the source's role in the case while keeping unresolved claims separate from confirmed facts. Original source URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera%C3%A7%C3%A3o_Prato
