Date: May 11, 1950
Place: McMinnville, Oregon, United States
Photographer: Paul Trent, a farmer living near Sheridan, Oregon
The Incident:Paul and his wife Evelyn Trent claimed to have seen a metallic, disc-shaped object hovering silently over their farm at dusk. Evelyn first spotted it while feeding the rabbits and called her husband. Paul quickly fetched his Kodak camera and managed to take two clear black-and-white photographs before the object moved away to the northwest.These photos became known as the McMinnville UFO photographs and were later published in Life magazine on June 26, 1950
Verification and Investigation: The negatives were examined by experts at McMinnville’s local newspaper, and later by the U.S. Air Force’s Project Blue Book and Condon Committee (University of Colorado study, 1968).
Investigators found no signs of tampering or double exposure. The lighting and shadows were consistent with an object of unknown origin.

Date: May 7, 1952
Place: Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Photographer: Ed Keffel
The Incident: On the morning of May 7, 1952, journalist João Martins and photographer Ed Keffel, from the Brazilian magazine O Cruzeiro, were on assignment near Barra da Tijuca, a coastal area of Rio de Janeiro.
They claimed to have seen a disc-shaped metallic object flying silently over the sea and approaching the shoreline.
Keffel quickly took a series of five black-and-white photographs, showing the UFO at different angles and positions in the sky.The series became known as the Barra da Tijuca UFO photographs and were later published in O Cruzeiro magazine, attracting global attention.
Verification and Investigation:The negatives were analyzed by experts and journalists in Brazil and abroad.
No signs of manipulation or double exposure were detected at the time, and the lighting on the object matched the ambient conditions of the scene.
However, skeptics later suggested the images might depict a model or optical illusion, though no conclusive evidence ever proved a hoax.
Even today, the original negatives remain one of the most studied photographic records of UFOs in South America.

Date: May 23, 1964
Place: Burgh Marsh, near the Solway Firth, Cumbria, England
Photographer: Jim Templeton
The Incident:
Jim Templeton took several photos of his five year old daughter, Elizabeth, during an outing to Burgh Marsh. When the film was developed, one of the pictures showed what appeared to be a tall figure in a white suit standing behind the girl resembling an astronaut or "spaceman."Templeton insisted that no one else was present that day besides his wife and daughter, and he claimed not to have noticed anything unusual at the time.
Verification and Investigation:The image was analyzed by Kodak technicians, who confirmed the negative was genuine and showed no signs of tampering or double exposure. The case attracted worldwide media attention and was even investigated by the British Ministry of Defence. Skeptics later suggested the "spaceman" was likely Templeton’s wife, whose light-colored dress was overexposed and who accidentally appeared in the frame. However, Templeton maintained that no one was behind his daughter when the photo was taken.It remains one of the most iconic and debated UFO-related photographs of the 20th century.

Date: August 4, 1990
Place: Near Calvine, Perthshire, Scotland
Photographer: Two unidentified hikers
The Incident: On the evening of August 4, 1990, two hikers near the village of Calvine, close to the Cairngorms National Park, reportedly witnessed a large diamond-shaped metallic object hovering silently in the sky for several minutes.
They claimed a Royal Air Force Harrier jet flew nearby, seemingly observing or approaching the unidentified craft. One of the witnesses used a camera to take six photographs, capturing the object and the jet in the same frame.
The men later handed the negatives to the Scottish Daily Record, a major newspaper. However, instead of being published, the materials were allegedly passed to the Ministry of Defence (MoD) for analysis and then disappeared for more than three decades.
Verification and Investigation:The original negatives vanished, but one official print remained in the MoD archives. The photo was finally declassified and released in 2022 after 32 years, revealing a sharp, daylight image of a diamondshaped UFO with a military jet nearby one of the clearest UFO photos ever taken.Experts from Kodak and the Ministry of Defence confirmed the print was genuine and showed no signs of manipulation or double exposure.While skeptics proposed the object could have been a secret U.S. aircraft (like the Aurora project), the MoD never identified it and classified the event as “unexplained.”

Date: 1870
Place: Mount Washington, New Hampshire, United States
Photographer: Likely a member of the Mount Washington weather observatory expedition
The Incident: The image shows a snow covered mountain landscape with a dark, cigar shaped object appearing to float in the air. It was captured with one of the earliest stereo cameras and originally intended as part of a scientific series documenting the mountain’s weather conditions.
Decades later, UFO researchers noticed the strange cylindrical form and suggested it could be the first known photographic record of a UFO.
Verification and Investigation:Independent photographic experts who analyzed the surviving print found no evidence of scratches, manipulation, or double exposure on the original glass plate.
The light and shadow distribution on the object matched the surrounding landscape, further supporting the conclusion that it was genuinely captured at the time of exposure.

Date: December 1, 1987
Place: Ilkley Moor, West Yorkshire, England
Photographer: Philip Spencer
The Incident: At dawn on December 1, 1987, a former police officer using the pseudonym Philip Spencer was crossing Ilkley Moor a cold, foggy stretch of upland in northern England when he claimed to have encountered a small humanoid being standing on the hillside.
Spencer quickly raised his camera and captured a single photograph before the figure turned and fled into the mist. Moments later, he reported seeing a domed, disc shaped craft silently rising into the sky.
Verification and Investigation:The photograph shows a greenish figure, roughly humanoid in shape, appearing to move away from the camera. Analyses by photographic experts, including optical specialists from Kodak, found no evidence of manipulation or double exposure on the original slide.
However, due to the low resolution and lighting conditions, no definitive identification could be made. Supporters argue that the depth, shadows, and proportions are consistent with a real physical object, while skeptics propose it could depict a human or a misidentified statue.
Despite decades of debate, the Ilkley Moor Alien remains one of the most mysterious and frequently discussed UFO-related photographs ever taken in the United Kingdom.

Date: October 17, 1973
Place: Falkville, Alabama, United States
Photographer: Police Chief Jeff Greenhaw
The Incident: On the evening of October 17, 1973, Police Chief Jeff Greenhaw of Falkville received a phone call reporting a strange metallic figure walking along a rural road. Armed with his patrol camera, Greenhaw drove to the scene and discovered a small humanoid figure covered entirely in a reflective metallic suit.According to his testimony, the being stood motionless for a few seconds before turning and running with unnatural speed across the field. Greenhaw managed to take several photographs using his Polaroid camera before the entity disappeared into the darkness.
Verification and Investigation:The photographs were taken by Police Chief Jeff Greenhaw using a Polaroid camera, which makes manipulation nearly impossible. The lighting and reflections on the metallic figure match the direction and intensity of the camera flash, indicating a real object was present in the scene. The figure’s proportions and movement blur are consistent with a physical subject captured mid-motion, not a static prop.Experts found no evidence of double exposure or tampering, and the grain pattern is uniform throughout the image. Skeptics suggest a person in a reflective suit, but the even light distribution and the speed described by Greenhaw make this explanation uncertain.

Date: June 16, 1963
Place: Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
Photographer: Paul Villa
The Incident: On June 16, 1963, mechanic and amateur photographer Paul Villa claimed to have been telepathically guided to a location near Albuquerque, where he encountered a hovering disc-shaped object. Using his 35 mm camera, he captured a series of remarkably clear photographs showing a metallic craft with a domed top, moving and tilting above the treeline. Villa reported that the object emitted no sound and appeared to change position slowly, as if under controlled flight.
Verification and Investigation:The negatives were examined by independent photographic specialists who found no evidence of double exposure, composite layering, or optical manipulation. Light and shadow analysis revealed consistent directionality, and the focus depth matched the background trees, indicating that a real object was present in the scene at the time of exposure.
Skeptics have suggested that the craft could have been a small scale model suspended by wires; however, enhanced contrast scans showed no visible support lines or anomalies, and the uniform grain structure across the film ruled out tampering. Supporters consider the Paul Villa series among the most detailed UFO photographs of the 1960s, offering a rare, daylight close-range record that has never been conclusively debunked.

Date: July 16, 1952
Place: U.S. Coast Guard Air Station, Salem, Massachusetts, USA
Photographer: Shell R. Alpert
The Incident: At 9:35 a.m., Coast Guard photographer Shell R. Alpert reported seeing four intensely bright objects flying in a “V” formation near the Salem Air Station. He quickly grabbed his Speed Graphic camera and photographed them through a window screen. The resulting image captured four glowing discs above the horizon one of the most widely circulated official UFO photos of the early Cold War period.
Verification and Investigation: The photograph became part of the U.S. Air Force’s Project Blue Book archive and was later referenced in declassified CIA reports concerning aerial phenomena. Analysis of the original negative revealed no evidence of double exposure or tampering, and the lighting and grain structure were consistent with a single exposure taken in daylight.

Date: February 25, 1942
Place: Los Angeles, California, United States
Photographer: Los Angeles Times
The Incident:In the early hours of February 25, 1942 just months after the attack on Pearl Harbor air raid sirens wailed across Los Angeles as unidentified aerial objects were reported over the city. Believing it to be a potential Japanese airstrike, the U.S. military ordered a citywide blackout and unleashed over 1,400 anti aircraft shells into the night sky. Searchlights converged on a luminous object hovering silently over Santa Monica Bay, witnessed by thousands of residents. Despite the intense barrage, no wreckage or aircraft were ever recovered.
Verification and Investigation: The photograph, taken by a Los Angeles Times photographer and later released by the U.S. Army, became one of the most iconic UFO-related images in American history. Analysis of the original negatives confirmed the authenticity of the light convergence and exposure streaks, consistent with live anti-aircraft fire and spotlights illuminating a solid or reflective object. The U.S. government initially attributed the incident to “war nerves” and a false alarm, though declassified military and intelligence records later revealed that radar had detected an unidentified target moving slowly over the coast before vanishing without a trace.
