Shape of Object/s:

• Primary object:
  Large disc-shaped craft — domed top, flat bottom, surrounded by or emerging from a glowing, cloud-like mass

• Secondary objects:
  2 to 3 smaller luminous spheres — described as “soccer ball-sized” glowing orbs, hovering and moving with precision

Date: Early November 1978

Time:

Between approximately 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. local ship time

• Initial anomalies began just after 3:00 p.m., during the afternoon watch and coffee break

• Major sighting of the glowing cloud and luminous spheres occurred around 6:00 p.m., as the witness returned to the lounge

• By 8:00 p.m., the witness experienced severe time distortion — what felt like minutes had actually been hours

• Event continued into the night, with symptoms (slow reflexes, clock malfunctions, distorted radio signals) observed into the early hours of the next day

Location: North Atlantic Ocean, near the Bermuda Triangle
(Approximately 3.5 nautical miles from M/V Pothiti’s position during voyage from Cuba to Las Palmas, Canary Islands)

Full Timeline of Events – Bermuda Triangle Incident | November 1978 | M/V Pothiti

Prior to Departure

• Late October 1978:
  M/V Pothiti loads cargo (50kg sugar sacks) at ports in Cuba: Puerto Nuevitas, Puerto Matanzas, and Puerto Cardenas.

• Ship is en route to Algeria, with a planned stop in Las Palmas, Canary Islands.

• Polo Spentzos, radio officer (“Marconi”), is performing standard communication duties. All systems normal.

Day of Incident – Early November 1978

3:00 p.m. | The First Signs

• Crew gathers for afternoon coffee break.

• Weather is calm, sky is clear, ocean flat like glass.

• Polo is still trying to transmit departure telegrams via radio — all attempts fail.

• Shipboard clocks and radios begin behaving oddly.

• No response from any European or American coastal stations.

• Incoming signals are received at extremely fast speeds — outgoing transmissions are heard extremely slowly (QRQ1000 vs. QRS10).

• Second officer accuses Polo of miscalibrating the ship’s chronometer — the Captain sides with Polo, saying: “Something else is wrong.”

3:30–4:30 p.m. | Time Acceleration and System Anomalies

• Ship’s electrician runs in: “The clocks are spinning! Everything’s running fast!”

• Wind-up clocks and chronometers gain time rapidly.

• Digital quartz watches, however, begin losing time — up to four hours behind.

• Analog and digital systems are behaving in opposite directions.

• All attempts at contact with other ships via VHF and 500 kHz fail.

5:00 p.m. | Dinner

• Crew sits down for dinner as usual.

• Polo returns to the lounge shortly afterward.

~6:00 p.m. | The Sighting Begins

• Polo joins the cook for a game of backgammon.

• He positions himself to face the ship’s stern and the open sea.

• Suddenly, a massive glowing cloud appears on the horizon, about 3.5 nautical miles away.

• Within the cloud, two large glowing orbs are visible — described as 10-meter-wide glowing spheres, like “giant basketballs.”

• Two smaller spheres, like “soccer balls,” rise up from below the cloud and appear to dock with the larger object.

• No sound. No visible propulsion. Controlled, deliberate movement.

• Polo begins to suspect this is not Soviet or American tech — this is something else.

8:00 p.m. | Severe Time Distortion Hits

• Polo walks from the lounge to the bridge — should take 2 minutes.

• When he arrives, two hours have passed.

• He estimates gravitational force affecting them is equivalent to 100 g (vs. Earth’s normal ~9.8 g).

• He tries to drag a chair — it takes 40+ seconds.

• He taps out Morse code: only 3 characters in 17 seconds, far slower than usual.

• His heartbeat feels like 70 beats per 10 minutes, not 70 per minute.

8:30–10:00 p.m. | Crew Begins Failing

• Second officer and young deckhand appear frozen or sluggish at the helm.

• Polo yells: “Put it on autopilot — we can’t trust our reflexes!”

• Crew is instructed not to touch the wheel until after 10:00 a.m. the next day unless another ship is spotted.

• Third engineer reports:

  • He lit two cigarettes and burned his lips

  • Bilge pump took two hours instead of minutes

  • Physical reflexes aren’t syncing with time perception

• Polo warns all crew: “Do not touch valves. Do not open taps. Do not trust your senses.”

Overnight (into early morning hours) | Full System Breakdown

• Polo returns to radio room and documents events.

• Issues emergency TTT message on 500 kHz:
  “Attention: UFO/USO – Twin Paradox – Einstein Relativity – Crew experiencing reduced reflexes, gravitational time dilation…”

• Receives no immediate response.

Next Morning – ~8:00 a.m.

8:00 a.m. | Outside Confirmation

• Another Greek cargo ship ahead, also bound for Gibraltar, responds:
  “We saw you all night. You weren’t responding. Your crew looked drunk — moving like puppets. We thought something was seriously wrong.”

• Confirms Pothiti was visible but unreachable — proof of communication distortion.

12:00 noon | Crew Still Confused

• Chief engineer storms in: “Nothing got done yesterday!”

• Crew insists: “We didn’t even feel the day pass.”

• Electrician: “Clocks on the bridge and engine room were spinning fast.”

• Third engineer: “Digital quartz watches are 4 hours behind.”

• Polo explains relativity and gravitational distortion to stunned crew.

Post-Event Reflection

• Polo connects the event to:

  • Frederick Valentich’s disappearance (October 21, 1978)

  • 1978 Kaikoura lights (New Zealand)

  • Einstein’s Twin Paradox and gravitational time dilation

  • Failures of pulse radar, digital systems, and satellite tracking

•
