The Woman Who Fell from the Sky
The Judica-Cordiglia brothers, two Italian amateur radio operators, declared to have made a shocking discovery in 1961. They supposedly picked up a message of a woman screaming for her life somewhere between North America and Russia using their radio equipment, which was put up outside of Turin in an abandoned German bunker.
The voice on the recordings is that of a terrified Russian woman who is screaming about the intense heat and is having trouble breathing. The recording eventually comes to an end, probably with the passing of the first female cosmonaut, as the woman's voice becomes more and more distraught.
Even while the current Russian Space Agency continues to deny that these events ever occurred, the theory that Russia covered up the deaths of its cosmonauts in space is not particularly new, but it does have a few blips of supporting evidence.
Though it is interesting to note that on May 26, 1961, TASS (the Soviet news agency), reported that a sizable unmanned satellite had burned up upon reentering the Earth's atmosphere, three days after this radio communication was discovered and noted.
