The Most Spectacular UFO photo ever captured?

[nivek]

Revealed after 32 years: The 'most spectacular UFO photo ever captured' - or the first glimpse of America's fabled top-secret Aurora spy plane program?​

In August 1990, two young chefs photographed what they thought was a UFO while walking near the Carigorms in Scotland and took the pictures to a newspaper, but the photographs vanished - along with the two young chefs. Now, after 32 years, the photograph is revealed - despite officials doing their utmost to keep it hidden until 2076 because of 'privacy concerns'. But is this picture, in fact, the first glimpse of America's fabled, top-secret Aurora spy plane program? Since the mid-1980s, there had been rumours of a silent, supersonic, geometrically shaped craft, used for spy missions. There have never been substantial evidence that it was ever built or flown, but there have been numerous unexplained sightings and incidents in both the US and the UK that fuelled the myth.

Aliens attacked!

Charlie Red Star arrived and I scanned through it last night a bit, and.. I need glasses! But the book looks excellent. Apparently they got the whole nine yards of the UFO experience during that wave, with many close observations, and even landings with humanoids. Amazing descriptions and...

Wow, no kidding..! Can you give all of the background, where you were, did you see craft or just get the beams on you? Any noise? Did it take off quickly? Do tell..

I had just gotten off from work as a telemarketer and I was in a Miami Suburb waiting for the bus at approx 9 pm. There was a slight drizzle and a fog at about 100 feet elevation. The street where I was waiting for the bus was practically deserted and the traffic was very scarce. I lived at the Gibson Hotel at that time which is located in downtown Miami. I was looking in that direction when I saw the white round light approaching silently at approx 3mph. I recognized it as the same light I had seen several nights before late at night from my hotel window but was traveling at a much higher elevation from the suburbs towards downtown Miami. It had the same strange characteristic of suddenly shaking horizontally. It was also entirely silent which ruled out a helicopter or plane.

I had assumed that the light itself was the entire craft but as it turned out the light was merely attached to its side. I only realized this as the backward reflection from it dimly illuminated the rest of its form which appeared to be that of two pyramids attached at their bases. I would say its distance from me when I noticed this was perhaps one hundred feet. It was enormous and dwarfed the house over which it was passing. I assumed it was going to continue on its way when it suddenly stopped.

Then it suddenly doused its white frontal light and shifted it to focus on me for approx three seconds. Then it used a red and then a green lights and did the same. These lights were the most intense lights I have ever seen in terms of purity. Not a flicker. They were not blinding either.

What bothered me most was that the backward reflections from these light revealed what appeared to have been a hull that seemed organic and not metallic. It had this rather brownish tinge. Also, it was effortlessly defying gravity without any sound of any kind.

Once it had focused those lights on me and I had stood stupidly there instead of running like I should have but didn't for some strange reason, it then doused its light and re-lit it at its rim toward my left. That was the direction it had been traveling before it stopped. It then made a slight right turn towards what I knew was the Miami Airport. I gazed at it as it went and fluctuated horizontally now and then as it had done on its approach. It was traveling just below the fog cover as it had before.

Moments later my bus arrived. Got home and noticed that there was time missing. I figured that maybe I had imagined the whole thing. In fact, I hoped I had because it left me with an uneasy feeling as if I had been abused ion some way. Unfortunately, the next morning the newspaper headline was announcing that a UFO had played havoc with Miami Airport traffic the night before. There went my peace of mind.

Have I attempted to find out what happened during that missing time? No I havent. Why? Because I really don't want to know since it isn't going to do me any good one way or the other. I just wish it never happened to be honest.

What is this about?...

...

 

[Todd Feinman]

What is this about?...

...

This is an individual on Historum who very likely encountered the same object seen in the photo, and was struck by a beam of light from it.

 

[Spaceman spiff]

Mick West already suggested it was a kite on twitter. Yes. A kite. They classified pictures of a fucking kite till 2076...

 

[Todd Feinman]

That's funny, because, I'm beginning to think that Mick West is actually just a mannikin!

[Todd Feinman]

Okay, I gotta stop posting about UFOs! Kudos the the creativity of folks over at Metabunk though!! hehehe...
Take care, all.

 

[Spaceman spiff]

Love the theories online. Now some people claim it is a rock or a reflection in water. Just one small problem. The area where it was taken is hills and moor with tall grass and has no water. There are some small lakes and a river near, but not that near.

 

[Todd Feinman]

It's like a freaking Rorschach test for them. Kind of a reverse Scott Waring

 

[Spaceman spiff]

One could argue that the witnesses took the photographs somewhere else, like on a hill looking down to a loch or a flooded field. Unfortunately some people just can't tell, it is just the case do you believe what the witnesses told when they took the photos or not? Witnesses can't be contacted, their info is classified. Unless they decide to come forward we can't talk to them. Theres also the fact that they took 6 photos, this one may be ambiquent enough to some that it might show a sky or a reflection, but are all of them? I would bet at least one of the other ones proves we are not looking at a reflection in the water. Unfortunately MOD has them locked up for a long time. There is also the question, why would the MOD confiscate these from the press and keep them hidden for 80ish years, some random photos, if they just show some reflections in the water? Something spooked them here.

Reminds me of the Catalina Island UFO video. The narrator (Brandon Chase) from the 1979 documentary opens with showing the C.I. daytime footage. Says something to the effect "What you are seeing is REAL. It is NOT a hoax."....."the disc shaped object has no wings, no tail section & no visiblle means of propolsion (as it slowly cruises behind a mountain)." He goes on to mention that the videographer also witnessed the saucer hovering before it started moving. And photographic experts scrutinized the video to back up what the narrator says.

Meanwhile at the JPL, their equipment shows that the "saucer" is clearly a Cessna (152, 162 or 172) which is a high winged plane with the wing struts coming up from the bottom of the fuselage. Knowing that airplanes do not have a "hover mode" we know that it was an optical illusion.

I only posted this because of the "appeared to be hovering" part up above.

Since the mid-1980s, there had been rumours of a silent, supersonic, geometrically shaped craft, used for spy missions.

No idea WTF this is, but what is one of the things that the UAP TF didn't want to talk about openly ? Shapes. The shapes of the objects being seen by Navy pilots.

 

[Todd Feinman]

The Aurora wouldn't be able to hover in place, depictions of Aurora look very different. and this appears to be much larger than any aircraft in our inventory. According to witnesses it also shot up vertically away into space above --like the Chicago O'Hare UFO. It looks like two shallow pyramids, bases attached --like descriptions pf large diamond-shaped UFOs from the past, and exactly like Radrook's description of what he saw in Florida that shined beams of light onto him.

 

[pigfarmer]

Well, since the Aurora is purely speculative we don't really know what it can or can't do. I've seen artists renderings of it years and years ago. Never been more than a rumor. Might as well be deciding what x-wing fighters can or can't do.

What about the triangle shaped gadgets ? Tr-67B or some such. B model ? Really ? Where'd that info come from ?

What things appear as or what they appear to be doing comprises 95%+ of Project Blue Book files

 

[pigfarmer]

The military tends to think in cycles measured in decades and they hang on to old stuff forever. Hence mothball fleets and desert boneyards.

If we see a piece of previously classified equipment like a B2 Spirit it’s already more than halfway through its originally intended lifespan and it’s still secret replacement likely already operational. In terms of aircraft beyond that who knows, but an exoxtic system under development for many, many years isn’t any stretch of the imagination. Think of the rate of technical development, it probaby made previous ideas on the drawing board possible.

Also consider undersea developments. I’ve written here that we have had highly advanced deep submergence capabilities since the 70s. They’ve repurposed a number of Ohio class boomers as clandestine mission delivery vehicles. This includes SEALS and all their gadgets. Not hard to speculate that they can appear in unexpected places and that their gadgets are a combination of manned and semi/fully aurtonomous vehicles. A trans medium capability is probably old news to them at this point.

I’m not keen on ascribing old sightings to speculative vehicles, and even less so to giving them discrete abilities and performance. The real stuff is almost akways cooler than fiction.

 

[pigfarmer]

Like the Aurora I’ve read things that the replacement for the B2 is an exotic suite of vehicles not just one big bomber.

I learned just recently that the negatives were not classified and were returned to the newspaper, at least according to the MOD. The photos disappeared after this supposed "return". No one in the newspapers seemed to know about it. And very conveniently the newspaper editor was pretty much a MOD stooge, which is how they ended there in the first place. Make of that what you will.

Could they still have the them, did they lie. Or at least the copies?

Only things they apparently classified for 80 years is the info of the witnesses. Even going way over the usual limit .

This still smells fishy.

 

[Spaceman spiff]

No trace of the negatives has ever been found after they were allegedly "returned". Why were they not published like the original intent was? Even if they were further returned to the original, publicly unknown witnesses, wouldn't they have been confident of their sightings and tried a different newspaper or some other avenue? Did they feel threatened, or were they threatened? I could see another kind of scenario here.

Editor of the Scottish Daily Record newspaper, the late Endell Laird, happened to have been a member of the MOD’s D-Notice committee at the time , so even if the MOD were honest here and sent them there, they might have boomeranged back or were put to shredder/otherwise "disappeared". Or they just lied and never sent them back and told Laird to cover it up on their end. It is just too convenient for the MOD to have the negatives "sent back" to the Daily Record where they have a connection to and power over the editor, a stooge if you will, and then they just happen to end up "disappearing". I think there is a conflict of interest seen here, and they might have made up the thing so the trail to the photos vanishes. The photos or the copies could still be with them, but they can deny all knowledge and get rid of the further inquiries.

The fact that RAF officer Craig Lindsay just happens to have a copy and comes out after 30 years might be a bit suspicious too. We'll have to see where it goes.

 

[Todd Feinman]

I agree, Spaceman Spiff. I'm withholding judgement on the photo too. I also don't think it is the "most spectacular" UFO photo ever taken. There are plenty of others that are more revealing, including the photos from the '80s just released by "Eyes on Cinema"; I would put those, the McMinnville photos, and the Woonsocket photos ahead of the Calvine photo, and there are plenty of others I'd also put ahead of it, too. The idea that the Calvine photo is a reflection in water is ridiculous, however, as the "reflection" is not congruent with the top half, when flipped --the top right portion of the pyramid doesn't match. Another example of folks at Metabunk shoehorning things to fit into their funny ideas. A lot of UFOs have a darker underside and lighter top.

B model

I hear the C model’s supposed to have transwarp drive
