The UMMO case is the biggest hoax in the history of ufology. A case that lasts for decades, beginning in the sixties and still going on today. A case in which ufology is mixed with all kinds of different crimes.
Here we intend to put together a basic timeline of the most notorious and/or influential events in the history of Ummo.
This timeline is under construction. Any correction and/or suggestion is welcome.
UMMO AFFAIRE TIMELINE
1954 Creation of the "Society of Friends of the Visitors From Space BURU" in Madrid, which would meet successively in various venues and, finally, in the basement of Café Lión, a meeting named after a drawing in the basement: "la ballena alegre" (the happy whale). Fernando Sesma is the leader of the group.

In the field where the alleged sighting occurs, a portion of scorched land remains.
7.02.1966 The newspaper Informaciones publishes the news of the sighting in Aluche, accompanied by a photograph of the burned field.
1966-1969 Sesma publishes the books "Sensational! The Aliens Speak" (1966), "Ummo, Another Inhabited Planet" (1967), and The Space Visitor's Logic "(1969).
27-30.05.1967 The ummites announce by letter a new visit.
1.06.1967 Newspaper Informaciones publishes on the cover that a UFO has been sighted in San José de Valderas (Madrid). This time "several witnesses" take pictures of the object. The symbol ")+(" can be clearly seen on the ship. One of the witnesses is Antonio Pardo.
1969 During a meeting at the home of Francisco Donís (code name "Sinod"), emissary of an alient called Atienza , a call is received from an ummite, that Rafael Farriols manages to record. In this call the famous request "the brothers gathered at his home should not ask questions to my brothers" is recorded.
1969 Antonio Ribera and Rafael Farriols publish the book "A perfect case". Antonio Ribera sends Oscar Rey Brea a copy of his book A Perfect Case , and Rey Brea concludes the photos from San José de Valderas are fake.
17.01.1970 The association "Eridani AEC" is founded, chaired by Jordán Peña, which unifies other minor groups. Eridani was the origen of the Spanish Society of Parapsychology.
20.06.1972 The bodies of José Félix Rodríguez Montero and Juan Turú Vallés are found lifeless on the train track. They have killed themselves. On Turú's body there is a note that reads: "The aliens are calling us. We belong to infinity. WKTS 88”. According to researchers Josep Guijarro and Manuel Carballal, Rodríguez Montero would have been in contact with Ummo contactees group..
1980-1996 Second wave of letters mainly to Rafael Farriols, Jorge Barrenechea, Juan Dominguez and Juan Aguirre.
1984 The Edelweiss cult, founded by Eduardo González Arenas, is dismantled by the police for child abuse. "The sect advocated homosexual relationships between minors (...) according to its founder existed on a distant planet called Delhaiss, where members of the sect would be transferred, once they had a degree learning suitable to travel to it and save themselves from the end of the world that was near. (...) The kids would go to Delhais to a paradise only for men, for which here they were already marked with the Ummo sign on the inside of the forearm. "[ Wikipedia ] González Arenas is sentenced to 168 years old, but is free after only 6 years! In 1991 he is being murdered by a young man, an alleged new victim of González Arenas.
1988 José Juan Montejo and Javier Sierra discover that Jordán Peña and Vicente Ortuño, the two witnesses of the Aluche sighting were close friends since before the sighting. The only named witness of San Juan de Valderas, Antonio Pardo, author of the photographs, is never located.

Perhaps this is the origin of the validity of Ummo ideas in France.
2.04.1993Rafael Farriols receives a letter from Cuba advising him to question Peña about the Ummo affair. In response, Peña sends a long letter in which he confesses to being the author of the letters:
"I decided to create the myth called Ummo, decorating it with a false landing and false tracks. The hoax was almost perfect. I launched it through anonymous letters, decorated with pseudoscientific information, causing the interest we assume. Later, due to a journalist, Javier Sierra, I decided to reveal the matter".
c.1997 Jordán Peña confesses to Manuel Carballal: “I have been the author of UMMO. It is an experiment that I did to study the credulity of the man, but it got out of hand. It was my fault. I'm sorry. My intention was to make believe that a group of extraterrestrials existed that had arrived until France and from there they spread to Spain, South America, etc. But it must be said that he did not refer to any sect. Believers were free to believe or not. What happens is that, over time, some people have become fans of Ummo and have turned it into a sect. They made something that was not dangerous dangerous ". Jordán Peña also declares that he had received financial and logistical help from foreign intelligence agencies.
