Leaked Government Photo Shows ‘Motionless, Cube-Shaped’ UFO

The unclassified image was taken in 2018 and has reportedly been knocking around the Department of Defence since then but now it's found its way into the public domain.

The Debrief’s Tim McMillan, a contributor to Popular Mechanics, learned of the photo’s existence from a “defense official who has been verified as being in a position to have access to the UAPTF’s intelligence reports,” he writes. Three other government officials confirmed with McMillan that the photo, which was shared on a secure network used by the U.S. Intelligence Community, comes from a 2018 task force report.

A military pilot reportedly encountered the object while flying over the Atlantic Ocean on the East Coast of the U.S. in 2018 and captured it with their personal cell phone. It’s likely that a backseat weapons system operator on an F/A-18F Super Hornet took the photo of the object, which McMillan calls “inverted” and “bell-shaped,” and describes it having “ridges or other protrusions along its lateral edges, extending toward its base.”

For me it looks suspiciously like some sort of balloon but defence officials and the pilots who snapped the object seem to rule that out.

Is the object a research balloon? Probably not, two defense officials tell McMillan. “Pilots who encountered the object described that, unlike a balloon under similar conditions, the object was completely motionless and seemingly unaffected by ambient air currents,” he writes.

A spaceman came travelling or a party balloon lost in (air)space ... you decide.

Plastic bag caught by the wind? I want to believe but this is not convincing evidence imo.

Plastic bag carried by the wind is more likely than an extra terrestrial.

The picture also look manipulated, if you zoom in the edges of the thing is blurry like someone used photoshop and tried to hide it by blurring out the edges. There are also some white lines around the zoomed in picture that is not in the large version - proof that it is manipulated. If you have the raw image then I would consider it, now it´s obviously tampered with imo.

How would that thing even fly, there´s no wings. lol.

Case closed.

This has already been covered. It's Batman party balloon.

EDIT: And by the way, in what world does that even remotely resemble a cube?

a reply to: gortex

Not to mention the object in the photo does not resemble a cube; IIRC, an earlier article on these phenomena mentioned one that appeared to be a transparent cube.

This looks like a red herring effort.

Cheers

You didn't read this part?

“Pilots who encountered the object described that, unlike a balloon under similar conditions, the object was completely motionless and seemingly unaffected by ambient air currents,”

Do you really think we have professionals up there in a 350 million dollar aircraft that can't tell if its a plastic bag or not?

That question occurred to me too.

Here say. How do we know they are not lying, no names of the pilots either so we can´t do a background check.

And still you posted it?

Wonder if this is the photo talked about in the debrief article the other day.

Anyway, I've confirmed by way of VERY reliable sources this is real!

What’s allegedly significant about this photo is that it was circulated by the UAPTF. We’re just told they had it, not what they made of it.

As with much of the material in the Debris article, it comes from an anonymous source. Researcher Roger Glassel has been able to identify that the photo came from Strike Fighter Squadron 32 (VFA-32). twitter.com...

This. All day long.

Similar has happened with the Nimitz videos.

People seem to forget that these crews are the best of the best.

Armchair investigators and keyboard warriors suggesting that these pilots don't know when they are seeing something unusual is really taking the piss.

Doesn't necessarily mean its alien, but does suggest its not something as mundane as a balloon or carrier bag.

Is this a new tactic being used by those that used to discredit sightings as being swamp gas or Venus?

Lets have an "official sighting" and build it up as something legitimately unknown by the Government when its actual something mundane and explainable.

I sucked at math and geometry but this isn't cube. Not even after being chewed by a dog

Imo this might be a game played by the "christian" faction within the DOD. Ridicule at all cost and move the disclosure away.

The shape makes me think of a mylar balloon we got for my son's last b-day party

Not in their job description.
