Yes, I agree about the photograph but what are your thoughts on the radar/visual sightings?
Gazrok's made an excellent thread about the incidents here and it appears even the U.S. Government weren't convinced about the 'temperature inversion' explanations.
Cheers.

"There is no other conclusion I can reach but that for six hours on the morning of the 20th of July, 1952 there were at least ten unidentifiable objects moving above Washington....I can safely deduce that they performed gyrations which no known aircraft could perform. By this I mean that our scope showed that they could make right angle turrns and complete reversals of flight".
