In it, the USAF have confirmed that a suspected UFO photographed in the skies above Auckland more than 60 years ago was actually just a cloud.
The reported image reveals a circular disc shape in the sky seen in the sky above Auckland in mid-1951 – this is as per a UFO website. The title of the image was “Winter 1951'. The photographer thought it to be a flying saucer but the USAF has concluded that it was in fact a lenticular cloud.
The lens-shaped formations, that gave it the similarity to a flying saucer, were, in fact, the result of moist air that has condensed at a high altitude.
The book ‘Project Blue Book’ also mentions a UFO sighting in Texas in 1951 – it was the famous image of was of the Lubbock Lights. These were probably plover birds. These birds had white breasts that reflected light from cities below. The book is the result of over 12,000 suspected UFO encounters and, interestingly, more than 700 cases remain unsolved – or 5.5 per cent of the files.
