  • L’incident de Mantell concerne la mort, en janvier 1948, du capitaine Thomas F. Mantell à la suite de la collision de son avion avec un ballon-sonde dans le ciel du Kentucky. L'enquête conclut que le pilote avait perdu conscience à l'altitude de 7 500 mètres à la suite de l'absence d'oxygène dans son réceptacle ; que les pilotes de l'escadrille ainsi que les nombreux témoins avaient confondu la planète Vénus (effectivement visible en plein jour à cette période) avec un ovni ; que le capitaine avait percuté un ballon de la Marine lâché à Clinton dans l'Ohio et que l'appareil était ensuite tombé en piqué jusqu'au point d'impact.

  • On January 7, 1948, 25-year-old Captain Thomas F. Mantell, a Kentucky Air National Guard pilot, died in the crash of his P-51 Mustang fighter plane near Franklin, Kentucky, United States, after being sent in pursuit of an unidentified flying object (UFO). The event was among the most publicized early UFO incidents. Later investigation by the United States Air Force's Project Blue Book indicated that Mantell may have died chasing a Skyhook balloon, which in 1948 was a top-secret project that he would not have known about. Mantell pursued the object in a steep climb and disregarded suggestions to level his altitude. At high altitude he blacked out from a lack of oxygen; his plane went into a downward spiral and crashed. In 1956, Air Force Captain Edward J. Ruppelt (the first head of Project Blue Book) wrote that the Mantell crash was one of three "classic" UFO cases in 1948 that would help to define the UFO phenomenon in the public mind, and would help convince some Air Force intelligence specialists that UFOs were a "real" physical phenomenon. Ruppelt's other two "classic" sightings in 1948 were the Chiles-Whitted UFO encounter and the Gorman dogfight. Historian David M. Jacobs argues the Mantell case marked a sharp shift in both public and governmental perceptions of UFOs. Previously, the press often treated UFO reports with a whimsical or glib attitude reserved for “silly season news.” Following Mantell's death, however, Jacobs notes "the fact that a person had died in an encounter with an alleged flying saucer dramatically increased public concern about the phenomenon. Now a dramatic new prospect entered thought about UFOs: they might be not only extraterrestrial but potentially hostile as well." (en)
  • Insiden BETA Mantell adalah sebuah peristiwa kematian Thomas Francis Mantell, seorang personil Kentucky Air National Guard pada 1948, setahun setelah insiden Roswell. Insiden ini merupakan sebuah peristiwa BETA yang fenomenal dimana di langit negara bagian Kentucky terlihat sebuah BETA yang melayang-layang selama beberapa jam. Pengejaran yang dilakukan oleh pihak Amerika untuk mengetahui objek terbang tak dikenal itu berujung pada tewasnya salah satu pilot kebanggaan angkatan udara Amerika. Mantell adalah salah satu pilot berbakat. Di usia mudanya yang baru menginjak 25 tahun dia telah menjadi pilot yang diakui di kesatuannya, ini terlihat dari jam terbangnya yang telah mencapai 2167 jam di udara. Dia juga telah berjasa pada Perang Dunia II, khususnya saat Pertempuran Normandia pada bulan Agustus 1944 di Prancis. (in)

  • Случай с Мантеллом — один из самых знаменитых случаев наблюдения НЛО, произошедший в США в штате Кентукки 7 января 1948 года. Инцидент привёл к тому, что погиб лётчик, 25-летний Томас Фрэнсис Мантелл-младший (англ. Thomas Francis Mantell Jr., род. 30 июня 1922 года, Франклин, Кентукки, США). По мнению американского историка Дэвида Майкла Джейкобса, именно данный инцидент ознаменовал собой резкий сдвиг восприятия НЛО в обществе и правительстве США — отныне НЛО стали восприниматься не просто как что-то таинственное, но и как что-то потенциально опасное.
