UFO horror as '1,000-foot-long alien spaceship' pictured by aeroplane pilot
Former Pentagon staffer Lue Elizondo shared an image taken by a civilian pilot of what's believed to be a massive UFO, and claimed that the US government is hiding 'hundreds' of similar snaps
We're obsessed with the idea of extra-terrestrial life, having been desperate to know what might be out there long before ET hit our screens. For some it's not just a passing thought, with many people dedicating their time and careers to tracking possible UFO sightings - and they claim to have just found one.
UFOs have now officially been renamed to UAPs, or Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. There's one group, the UAP Disclosure Fund, that's committed to tracking possible sightings and encouraging governments to open up about any eerie information they might be keeping in the most secret of files.
The group held a panel on May 1, held in collaboration with the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and included members of Congress and leading UAP experts. There, they released a new photo of a suspected UAP - and it's huge. Captured at the meeting corner of the states of New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Colorado, the snap shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, shows a white disc that could be seen as floating over a field.
Explaining that the photo was taken by a civilian pilot from above, the post shares: 'Captured near Four Corners at FL210—estimated 600-1,000 ft in diameter, silver-hued, disc-shaped.
'Released moments ago by @LueElizondo during our 'Science, National Security & Innovation' panel. Several speakers confirmed DoD & IC hold hundreds of similar UAP images + sensor files still classified. It's time for full declassification and open scientific analysis.'
While the photo definitely could be seen as a huge floating disk, while many people were stunned by the huge shape others were quick to try to debunk the image.
Alongside several photos that seemed to capture the specific field, one person wrote: 'This is clearly a crop circle, not a UAP. Mislabelling known terrestrial phenomena erodes public trust and undermines legitimate disclosure efforts. Please correct this mistake - your reputation is on the line.'
Others complained that all photos of possible UAPs seem to be much blurrier than modern cameras are able to capture, with one mocking: 'WOW is that 14k virtual reality definition? I can make out every detail of it. ....at least have the s****y photo professionally scanned for God sakes. The flash is glaring off it.'
The photo was shared on behalf of the civilian by Lue Elizondo, who's made a name for himself in the flying saucer game. He joined the Pentagon UAP programme in 2008 after 20 years of running intelligence operations in Afghanistan and the Middle East, and quickly turned to saying that the Pentagon is hiding the existence of UFOs from civilians.
After retiring from the government in 2017, he claimed that he spent his time at the Pentagon handling "alien" technology, and claims that "bodies" have been recovered from several sites.
Elizondo released a new book, Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs, in 2017, claiming that the infamous Roswell incident in New Mexico in 1947 involved two flying saucers – and 'four deceased non-human bodies' were recovered from the wreckage and examined.
He later added: "I have held in my hand material that scientists for the US government have conducted research on, and they've said: 'This is very special material, it's highly unlikely that it's made by human beings – and it's engineered.
"I've also held in my hand biological samples, tissue samples, that have been removed from human beings – that when analysed, do not behave like anything that we are normally used to associating with being a natural part of the human body, and certainly looks to be some sort of technical device."
Now, Elizondo is on the war path to pressure the government to open up about the alien conspiracy, but his new photo has turned some fans against him.
Elizondo has said: "I wanted to be able to tell the American public my experiences and what the government has been doing for a very long time, not just when I was in the program, but for decades about the government's interest in UFOs.'

Dramatic move by Pentagon hint Trump could be siding with another billionaire amid Musk fallout
The Pentagon appears to be contemplating pivoting away from Elon Musk 's SpaceX following the almighty blowup between President Donald Trump and the world's richest man earlier this week. The fallout appears to be impacting the nation's space program as the Trump administration looks toward another billionaire to replace Musk in the race to Mars. Officials at NASA and the Pentagon quietly reached out to SpaceX's competitors, urging them to accelerate development of alternative rockets and spacecraft. Decisions appear to have been taken quickly after Musk made a defiant threat to pull SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft, a lifeline to the International Space Station, after Trump first threatened to cancel SpaceX's lucrative government contracts. 'It turned really terrifying,' one NASA official admitted to the Washington Post after initially finding the feud 'entertaining.' Although Musk eventually walked back his threat, the damage was done. Officials from NASA and the Pentagon, already uneasy with their reliance on SpaceX, were rattled to the core. SpaceX has become indispensable as it transports astronauts and cargo to the ISS, launches sensitive military satellites, and operates Starlink, the world's largest satellite constellation. The flare-up served to remind officials of the risks of tying national interests to a mercurial billionaire. 'When you realize that he's willing to shut everything down just on an impulse … that kind of behavior and the dependence on him is dangerous,' a former space agency official said. NASA insiders said Musk's threat 'crossed a line,' invoking memories of the 2018 episode when Musk smoked marijuana during a podcast interview, which prompted NASA to launch a safety investigation into SpaceX. The clash was also inflamed by the White House's decision to abruptly withdraw Jared Isaacman's nomination as NASA Administrator. Isaacman, closely aligned with Musk, had twice flown to space aboard SpaceX vehicles. In the aftermath, government officials reached out to Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin, RocketLab, and Stoke Space, querying when their rockets might be ready to shoulder critical missions. Fatih Ozmen, CEO of Sierra Space, which is developing the Dream Chaser spaceplane, confirmed that NASA was 'working closely' with his company stating, 'NASA mentioned to us that they want diversity and do not want to rely on a single provider.' For some insiders, it wasn't hard to connect the dots: Jeff Bezos, the founder of Blue Origin, has long been a rival to Musk. Now, with the Biden-era antagonism between Trump and Bezos thawing, some see a political recalibration. Bezos' Blue Origin has lagged behind SpaceX for years, but its New Glenn rocket is finally gaining traction, albeit slowly. The Pentagon's recent 'lanes' strategy to diversify launch providers now looks prescient, with officials seeking to avoid 'overreliance on any single provider or solution.' A source familiar with the Defense Department's strategy said the White House sees an opening to back Bezos as a counterweight to Musk's volatility. 'They want someone who's predictable,' the person said to The Post. Even Congress appeared to be spooked by the behavior. A key committee demanded updates on Boeing's long-delayed Starliner capsule, which has struggled to match the reliability of Musk's Dragon. NASA, under pressure, said Friday that Starliner's next mission could come 'early 2026,' though it remains unclear whether it will fly astronauts or cargo only. Indeed, just how reliant NASA were on SpaceX was illustrated last year when American astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were left on the International Space Station by Boeing's troubled Starliner capsule. Wilmore and Williams had set off for an eight-day Starliner test flight that swelled into a nine-month stay in space Boeing, which has taken $2 billion in charges on its Starliner development, faces a looming decision by NASA to refly the spacecraft uncrewed before it carries humans again. Boeing spent $410 million to fly a similar uncrewed mission in 2022 after a 2019 testing failure. Reflying Starliner uncrewed 'seems like the logical thing to do,' Williams said, drawing comparisons with Elon Musk's SpaceX and Russian capsules that flew uncrewed missions before putting humans aboard. She and NASA are pushing for that outcome, Williams added. 'I think that's the correct path,' said Williams, who is 'hoping Boeing and NASA will decide on that same course of action' soon. Results from Starliner testing planned throughout the summer are expected to determine whether the spacecraft can fly humans on its next flight, NASA officials have said. Todd Harrison, a defense analyst at the American Enterprise Institute, likened Musk's social media post to 'an embargo of the space station.' 'Musk was saying he is going to cut NASA off from its own laboratory in space,' he added. Harrison also recalled Musk's refusal to activate Starlink Internet for a Ukrainian military strike in 2022, a decision that raised alarms about national defense being at the mercy of a single CEO. 'The nation's missile defenses could be held hostage to the twittering whims of Elon Musk,' Harrison warned. Former NASA astronaut Garrett Reisman, who worked at SpaceX, voiced the fears of many in the astronaut corps: 'When your hopes and dreams are tied up in this, you can't help but think, "Oh my goodness, am I going to fly in space?"' Meanwhile, Trump, who once championed Musk as a visionary, appears to be cooling. His allies note that the president has no tolerance for perceived disloyalty and Musk's defiance has not gone unnoticed. Some aides believe Trump's sharp pivot is personal as much as political. RocketLab's CEO Peter Beck had previously warned how Musk's acquisition of Twitter, now rebranded as X, and his flirtation with politics could backfire. 'It certainly makes people uncomfortable. At the end of the day, if you're delivering important national security missions, the buck stops with the CEO,' Beck said. Pentagon officials remain wary, not least because few companies have rockets certified for critical national security missions. Blue Origin's New Glenn has flown once, and United Launch Alliance's Vulcan only twice. RocketLab's Neutron has yet to launch at all. SpaceX's Falcon 9 still dominates, launching with near clockwork precision. But now, Trump's administration appears ready to gamble on fostering competition, even if it means leaning more heavily on Bezos. 'Sierra Space stands ready,' Ozmen declared. Others in the sector are similarly jockeying for position, sensing that Musk's once-unshakable grip may be loosening.

Blind psychic Baba Vanga's world-changing 2025 prophecy set to occur at major televised event
A blind psychic, who allegedly foretold 9/11 and the COVID-19 pandemic, also made a world-changing prediction that humans will make contact with alien life this year. Baba Vanga, who died in 1996, was a Bulgarian mystic and clairvoyant who became a cult figure among conspiracy theorists after several of her pronouncements proved eerily true. This new prophecy for 2025 predicted that a 'new light in the sky' will appear during a major sporting event and people from the around the world would see it. Specifically, the Baba Vanga's vision described a UFO appearing over the event, allowing humanity to meet extraterrestrials for the first time - and the prophet said it would bring answers, not fear. Her 2025 prediction did not reveal which sporting event this would happen at, or what country it would take place in. Baba Vanga left no written records of her predictions. Most of the accounts come from her niece, Krasimira Stoyanova, or other followers who documented her alleged visions after her death who have been said to misinterpret what she said. News of the decades-old prediction comes as governments around the world have begun publicly discussing what they know about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs). In the US, the Trump Administration has ordered the declassification of several top-secret topics, including government investigations into UFO sightings and alien life. Although the 2025 prediction was left vague, those who have interpreted Baba Vanga's prophecy believe the light clearly refers to an extraterrestrial spacecraft appearing over an unnamed sports venue. There is also speculation that the light could refer to a meteor shower, the Northern Lights, or the expected supernova of T Coronae Borealis Nova 3,000 light years away, which would be visible from Earth. Many believers thought this event would take place during the Super Bowl in February, which is one of the most viewed television events worldwide, but that did not happen. Baba Vanga's track record as a seer of future events rivaled the centuries-old reputation of Nostradamus. She is credited with predicting the destruction of the Russian submarine Kursk, which sank in the Barents Sea in 2000. Baba Vanga also said that 'two metal birds will crash into American brothers, and blood will spill,' which believers said accurately described the 9/11 terror attacks. Other prophecies that came true include the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that killed over 230,000, the election of Barack Obama in 2008, and the rise of the Islamic terror group ISIS in 2010. Baba Vanga even foretold her own death correctly, revealing that she would die on August 11, 1996 at the age of 85. However, there have been several misses along the way, including a prediction that there would be a nuclear war from 2010 to 2016. She also is said to have incorrectly predicted that Europe would be deserted by 2016 after many wars and chemical attacks, and that several world leaders would be assassinated during the same year in the 2000s. The question of whether UFOs exist appears to be reaching a boiling point, as more and more whistleblowers come forward to say that humans have already made contact with alien life. In the US, Arizona has become a major hotspot for UFO sightings, with one former Customs and Border Protection official saying over 100 agents have reported seeing unidentified objects flying over America in recent years. That includes a military fighter plane colliding with an alleged UFO over the US Air Force's Barry Goldwater Range in 2023. Meanwhile, scientists in South America have claimed that they are in possession of both alien bodies and a strange space probe. In Peru, scientists probing 'alien mummies' recently shared new findings that they claim proves the specimens are '100 percent real.' Dozens of these mysterious, mummified bodies were discovered in the Nazca desert by journalist and ufologist Jaime Maussan, sparking years of investigation into their origins. In Colombia, a so-called 'UFO' was spotted in March over the town of Buga, zig-zagging through the sky in a way that defies the movement of conventional aircraft. That same object was allegedly recovered shortly after it landed and has since been analyzed by scientists, who discovered it features three layers of metal-like material and 18 microspheres surrounding a central nucleus they are calling 'a chip.' Dr Jose Luis Velazquez, a radiologist who examined the sphere, reported finding 'no welds or joints,' which would typically provide a clue that humans made it. As for Baba Vanga's prediction, there are still several major sporting event still to come in 2025. Those include tennis Wimbledon championship in July, baseball's World Series in October, and the Formula 1 Championship in December.

Eerie Roswell crash memo holds key to cracking UFO mystery after ‘FOUR alien bodies found,' expert insists
An eyewitness recalled seeing alien remains and their craft A BIZARRE memo about the Roswell UFO crash could unlock secrets and expose the truth about the 'flying saucer' mystery. A prominent ufologist made the startling claim after aliens were rumored as being spotted dead among the wreckage. Advertisement 6 The mystery material was recovered from the Roswell site after a 'flying disk' apparently crashed in the New Mexico desert in 1947 Credit: Getty 6 A Ufologist believes this photo of a memo may be key to cracking the case Credit: Kevin Randle and Philip Mantle The so-called Roswell Incident happened on July 2, 1947, in a remote desert area in New Mexico. Conspiracy theories and mystery swirling the alleged crash have fascinated UFO watchers for nearly 80 years. Back in 1947, the 509th Bomb Group - based in Roswell - released a press release claiming a UFO had crashed in the area, and the United States Army Air Forces were in possession of a 'flying disk." However, confusion ensued after that release was later retracted, and replaced with a statement saying the object was in fact a high altitude weather balloon. Advertisement READ MORE US NEWS FATAL ACCIDENT Parents arrested for letting boy, 7, walk home 'unattended' before he died The news alert had initially been issued by 1st Lt. Walter Haut, the public information officer at the base. Decades later, his daughter, Julie Shuster, was adamant that his original 'flying disk' statement had been accurate. But he had to keep everything "secret." A similar view has been expressed by veteran researcher Kevin Randle, a prominent ufologist who is regarded as one of the top experts on the reported crash. Advertisement Former army officer admits he saw ' beat up ALIEN the size of a 10-year-old child' after world famous Roswell UFO crash Randle has written multiple books about UFOs and the Roswell story. He's adamant that he has 'eliminated all possible terrestrial explanations." 'What we can say with authority is that something fell at Roswell,' he said. 'We have eliminated all the terrestrial explanations." Advertisement The expert, who served in the Air Force and National Guard, said the UFO case could be solved by delving into a historic memo. 6 The site of the Roswell crash Credit: Reuters 6 Expert Kevin Randle has spent years investigating the reported UFO crash Credit: Kevin Randle The eerie memo can be seen in a black and white photograph sent out on the news wires at the time. Advertisement The grainy note appears to say the words 'victims of the crash.' The memo itself can be seen in the old pic being held by Brigadier General Roger Ramey, who at the time of the crash was commanding officer of the 8th Air Force in Roswell. Ramey is holding the piece of paper slightly turned away from the camera. But, fortunately, some words can now be read using technology. KEY MEMO 'The Ramey memo could be the key to this whole thing," Randle said. Advertisement 'Ramey was holding the memo in his hand when he was photographed with the debris in his office. 'And what's interesting is we know when the picture was transmitted over the wire, we know who took it and we can see Ramey is holding the document in his hand. 'So we pretty much have the provenance nailed down. 'There are words in the document when you blow it up, that you can read. Advertisement 'Some people interpret the critical line as saying 'victims of the wreck.' 'Well, 'victims of the wreck' takes it out of the realm of a weather balloon - but it's kind of an interpretation of what you see." Randle has interviewed some 600 people over the past few decades in his search to establish the truth around the mysterious case. POLITICAL HOAX He has concluded that the weather balloon story is nothing but a "government hoax" to fob off those intrigued by UFO sightings. Advertisement Randle said, 'What they've said officially is that the Roswell crash was a weather balloon and [radar-type] target from this experiment being conducted in New Mexico. "What I discovered is that while [the radar-type] targets were a part of the experiments conducted on the east coast, when they got to New Mexico, they didn't use those targets. "That kind of points the finger at this being a government hoax to explain away the Roswell case.' KEPT SECRET Julie Shuster, Walter Haut's daughter, told SBS News, a broadcaster based in Australia, that she had many conversations with the former Army PR man about the "flying disk" he wrote about in 1947. Advertisement She said before her death in 2015, 'People began to talk about Roswell in the late '70s after several decades of keeping quiet. "I would ask dad to tell me the whole story, and he told me the same thing he told everybody: 'I put out the press release', and nothing else." It was not from this Earth, it was something manufactured off this Earth. It later emerged that Haut had been sworn to secrecy by base commander and close personal friend, Colonel William Blanchard. But, Haut was unhappy about keeping such a big secret, and prepared a signed affidavit to be opened after his death. Advertisement Originally from Chicago, Illinois, he died in Roswell in 2005. 'Basically dad said yes, he did see the bodies, yes he did see the craft and much more than that,' said Shuster. 'At one point I asked him about the size, and he said the craft was about 25 feet in diameter." EGG-SHAPED Thomas Carey, who co-authored a book with Shuster, Witness to Roswell: Unmasking the Government's Biggest Cover-Up, published in 2007, said his big secret "all came out in his sealed statement after he died." Advertisement Carey added, 'The ship which he described was about the size of a Volkswagen Beetle, more of an egg-shaped object, and he did see a number of bodies. 'He described them as being the size of children. "And when asked point blank if what he believed it was that he had seen, without hesitation he'd say, 'It was not from this Earth, it was something manufactured off this Earth.'' A retired cop claimed that he saw the remains of dead aliens being lifted with a crane and hauled away. Advertisement Former Deputy Sheriff Charles H Forgus of Howard County, Texas, recalled traveling to Roswell to pick up a prisoner with Sheriff Jess Slaughter. Forgus claimed he saw four alien bodies with big eyes and brownish-colored skin being taken away by military personnel. 6 Kevin Randall has been researching Roswell since the 1980s 6 Sheriff Jess Slaughter was with Deputy Sheriff Charles Forgus at the time of the discovery Credit: Philip Mantle
