Over
Coast Guard Facility, 1952
Twenty-one-year-old
guardsman Shell Alpert took this photo from the window of a U.S. Coast Guard
laboratory in Salem, Massachusetts, on July 16, 1952. The US Air Force's Project
Blue Book at first speculated that it was "probably" nothing more than street
lamp reflections on the window, though many people—including a power-company
work team and other soldiers who also witnessed the four bright egg-shaped
lights—disagreed. Later, Project Blue Book reclassified the phenomenon as
"unexplained."
UFO
over a Movie Theater in Zimbabwe 1953
This seemingly
ectoplasmic UFO was photographed by Barney Wayne in 1953 in Rhodesia (now
Zimbabwe). It has been posited that many 1950s UFO sightings were due to a
hysterical public, primed by the large number of popular alien-themed Hollywood
films gracing silver screens at the time—The Day The Earth Stood
Still, The Flying Saucer and Invaders From Mars among them. No
official explanation has ever been given for this particular image and it
remains unexplained.
Mulltiple
Witnesses, 1957
In November, 1957,
this unnamed young man was one of several people who witnessed a UFO. His
hand-drawn illustration, detailing what he encountered, is a prime example of
the limitations of Ufology before the era of digital cameras. Technology has
been a boon to UFO documentation, but also has its disadvantages. Almost anyone
can now use a computer to 'enhance' (computer generated imagery) CGI a digital
image of an alien craft.
Craft or Meteor, Copenhagen
1975
This dramatic UFO
photo was taken near a meatpacking plant in Copenhagen, Denmark, in May, 1975.
It is unknown whether the object is some type of craft or
meteor.
Kaikoura Lights, New Zealand
1978
New Zealand was
inundated by UFO sightings in the late 1970s, the most notorious of which was
the "Kaikoura Lights." They were spotted by the crew of a Safe Air cargo plane,
hundreds of witnesses on the ground and even a film crew. Then on December 30,
1978, they were tracked by New Zealand Air Traffic Control. The most popular
explanation offered by debunkers is that the lights were simply reflected off of
a trolling squid boat, a theory roundly rejected by
witnesses.
Glowing Sphere, NZ 1979
Resembles Tether UFOs
In 1979, near New Zealand's Clarence
River, this glowing sphere was tracked by the crew of a passing aircraft. Though
many theories have been offered for the object's presence—a meteor, a natural
event in the ionosphere, the planet Venus—none has satisfactory explained the
image. It should be noted that this image strongly resembles the "tether UFO"
filmed by NASA. For a link Click Here.
UFO Detection or Clouded
Perception?
In September of 1979,
a passenger on a Sicilian locomotive photographed this large, hovering UFO
through the train's window. It is not known if the photographer's memory was
simply 'clouded' by the stunning fall sky—or one too many Limoncellos—but he
reported that the craft was soon gone with the wind.
