After 32 years of being classified by the Ministry of Defence, the “Calvine UFO” image has finally been released. Read about Nick Pope’s thoughts about this released image.
The 1990 Calvine UFO image purportedly shows a diamond-shaped object (estimated 100 feet in length) hovering low in the skies of the Scottish countryside as fighter Harrier aircraft held a respectable distance.
According to two anonymous hikers, the military aircraft seemed oddly disinterested and continued on their way.
It is said the two hikers photographed the UFO before it departed vertically at great speed after about 10 minutes.
The anonymous hikers then turned over their photograph(s) to one of Scotland’s leading newspapers, which never published them but turned them over to the British Ministry of Defense, where the image(s) were promptly lost in the National Archives and remained missing for some 32 years.
Any factual evidence regarding the photo(s) is thus nebulous, at best.
The National Archives recently located and released the photo(s) after some prompting by UFO investigators, and the Ministry of Defense only commented:
“The MoD has come to no definite conclusion regarding the large object.”
Everything beyond that is pure speculation and sensationalism.
