The '''Magé incident''' was a reported [[UFO sighting]] that occurred on the 12th and 13th of May, 2020, in the city of [[Magé]] in [[Greater Rio de Janeiro]]. From around 10:40 PM until 2:00 AM, residents of the city recorded videos showing various strange lights of different colors in the heart of the city and shared them on [[social media]]<ref>[https://www.jqnoticias.com.br/2020/05/13/avistamentos-de-ovnis-em-mage-rj-vao-parar-nos-trending-topics-do-twitter/]Avistamentos de OVNIs em Magé vão parar nos trending topics do Twitter - jqnoticias</ref>.

==Conspiracy theories==
===Possible crash===
Some began to formulate a [[conspiracy theory]] in which one of the [[UFO|UFOs]] crashed in the district of [[Pau Grande]]<ref>[https://ift.tt/2Zq67T5] Video mostra suposta queda de OVNI em Magé no Rio de Janeiro - SBT Noticias</ref><ref>[https://ift.tt/2yTG8tW] Suposta queda de OVNI intriga internautas - Revista Istoé</ref>, near a factory of the arms manufacturing and research [[quango]] the [[IMBEL]] wherein [[helicopters]] of the [[Brazilian Armed Forces]] may have recovered the alleged wreck. There were no relevant communications from the related authorities.

===Cover-up by Google===
It was also suggested in some videos that [[Google]] may have [[cover up|censored images and coordinates]] related to the place where the UFO supposedly collided<ref>[https://ift.tt/3ggk1xX] Google Earth escondeu o local da queda do suposto OVNI de Magé - Noticias R7</ref>, which was readily disproved as the images on Google products do not update in real time.

==Possible explanations==
===Venus===
According to the [[ufology|ufologist]] Marco Antonio Petit, the videos may be sightings of the [[planet Venus]] and of some [[satellites]] such as those of the [[Starlink|Starlink system]]<ref>[https://ift.tt/2YIM6I4] "Não há nenhuma evidencia da queda de um OVNI, diz ufólogo Marco Antonio Petit" - CNN Brasil</ref>.

===Munitions testing and accidental explosions===
Another possible explanation for the case, and especially for the flashes of light, is possible explosives testing carried out by the IMBEL's Estrela Plant. The theory gained strength due to the accidental death of one of IMBEL's officials on the day of question<ref>[https://ift.tt/2YPbDQd] Caso Magé: A História de um UFO que nunca existiu - Revista UFO</ref>.
