The best UFO pictures from 1875-2005.

Amazing that, in 130 years, nobody has every been able to hold a camera still enough to get a clear shot.

Films of tornadoes, accidents, etc. all used to be extremely rare, too. Then, with the omnipresence of camcorders, and now, digital cameras (which most can record video, too) we have piles of films of all these things.

Still no clear films of all the woo items, though.

The aliens dictate the clarity of the footage taken. Stoopid.

This is going to be an escalating problem for UFOs I suspect. Nowdays even phones are getting 1 megapixel cameras or above put in. In fifty years when terapixel cameras with massive zoom and autofocus capability cost a dollar each, all these photos will presumably be seen as aircraft or whatever. What will the UFO folk say then?

But if they did that, we would be able to see what the photos actually depict, and then we wouldn't have UFO pictures.

A substantial number of these, particularly the earlier ones, look like darkroom artifacts -- processing bubbles, dust spots, etc.

I'm no expert on UFOs, but aren't some of these known hoaxes? I thought this one (http://www.ufocasebook.com/washingtondc1952.jpg) was cropped form a larger photo that shows the "UFOs" are reflections of streetlights.

Just being a known hoax wouldn't stand in the way of being one of the best UFO pictures available.

I ran into trouble with the very first picture. It was supposedly taken in 1870 "when there were no known flying objects". This would have come as a great surprise to one of my great grandfathers brothers, who was in Loewe's balloon corps in 1864-65.

I love this one, about a quarter of the way down on the 2004 page:

2004-The UFO Casebook received this image from our good friend "Two Cam" McLaren. He has sent the following details about the photograph. It was taken April, 03, 2004 outside Baghdad, Iraq. The photograph was taken by Joe Herrick. (name used with permission) The craft was not seen by any of the G.I.'s. My take on the craft is that it is a very different type craft; however it is very similar to the other unusual designs. I really dismiss the hoax factor. Someone has to know about this and the other crafts of this unusual wing design. copyright "Two Cam" McLaren.



Now call me skeptical, but doesn't it look just a little bit like a B-2? Looks a lot like the one I saw doing fly bys at Oshkosh 97 or 98, little fuzzy on the date. Now why in the world it would be near Baghdad, no one will evern be able to explain :)

The compositions of most of the photos scream hoax to me regardless of anything else.

Yes, it is cropped.

I have the complete photo showing the street light pattern (below, not shown) to exactly match in reverse the UFO pattern. It's in Randi's book Flim-Flam. All to often telling details are deliberately left out ... but sometimes a hint can leak through.

I just love the way everyone is going about business-as-usual as a flying extraterrestrial UFO is in clear view in the middle of the sky. Just another day in the city.

If they think you noticed them, they anal probe you and wipe your memory. Just pretend everything is normal and switch to a garlic shampoo.

An anal probe to wipe out one's memory -- just what are you implying?

If only they had taken a wider angle shot they would have captured the guy throwing the silver painted frisbee too.

Why not hang around outside of a house where one of the regular abductees lives ? Shouldn't have long to wait .
By the way a UFO is not a strange alien craft just something Unidentifed and flying . I've seen hundreds , mostly they turn out to be birds , planes satellites etc at which time they cease to be UFO's . Just remember not to tell the kooks that it was Venus when it was seen moving rapidly in the middle of the night . Even they aren't stupid enough not to know this is rubbish .
To give an example of a convincing UFO . I saw what appeared to be a metallic disc hovering in the air . I saw this during a coffee-break and 5 mins later it was still there , however a few minutes later I saw the wings of a seagull . Explained , but if somebody had watched this for 2 minutes and returned 10 mins later to take a picture they would been disappointed but probably convinced that they had seen something . I for one would have found it difficult to explain what they had seen given only the observation. Best thing is to ask if they saw the Sirius Licence Plate .

I remembered that photo but couldn't recall. You're post reminded me that that was put forward as Mount Ararat at one time or another.

If you look in the road to the right, the man who just threw the hat still has his arm up from throwing it. I think this was an early "action shot".

Las Lunas, New Mexico 09.24.1972. A farmer in Las Lunas, Mexico, returning to town, spotted several small objects "fluttering" along a few dozen feet above the desert scrub. They were small, about three feet in diameter, silver in color and made a buzzing sound. Similar domed disc-shaped objects were seen and photographed in the same area about five years later. This picture has long been thought to be a hoax, because of its clarity, and proximity to the witness. [Emphasis mine]

So a hoax is still one of 'the best UFO pictures ever'??? I noticed there are quite a few other 'probable hoaxes' included. Any old crap is good enough for the believers, hey?

And a 'real' picture of a UFO must be blurry and distant??? If all these pics were clearly in focus and detailed, they would all be obvious fakes, and we can't have them lose their delusions, now, can we?

Well, guys, you don't understand: it's not because this pictures could have been fake that they trully are. They look fakes, there is maybe some indication that they are fakes, but that doesn't prove that they are really fakes. There is only close-minded skeptics who thinks that people are smart enough to fake pictures anyway...

Seriously, I'm not at all surprise that a lot of pictures that skeptic dismissed as fake as still on that website. Take the Belgium Petit-Rechain pictures: skeptics are convince that it's a fake, but I read on a regular basis in the french-speaking ufo litterature that it's one of the best proof in history of extraterrestrial visitation and every 5 years (more or less) there is a new "expert" who says that the Belgium Petit-Rechain pictures is genuine and cannot be fake for one reason or an other.

I don't know which is sillier......

The obvious hoaxes...(flying hubcap pictures)

The mis-identification of mundane atmospheric phenomena...(clouds)

Or the images from the Apollo missions that are OH so obviously lens flares...


...and these are the best pictures the "UFO believers" have to offer???

What a joke...

Please explain how this picture...

is in any way evidence of extraterrestrial visitation. I claim it is evidence of a new sleigh Santa Claus built in the late eighties. Which theory has more validity?

Welcome to the new Woo science of the 21st century. Any speculation, no matter how crackpot, must be accepted as fact until every facet of it, no matter how trivial, has been thoroughly proven false. So long as any Woo believes in it.

Does this go in the New Woo Science book before or after Intelligent Design?
