The image shows a glowing, perfectly shaped spherical object, apparently dotted with yellow “landing lights.”
For many years, people all over the world have reported the appearance of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in various parts of the globe.
There are many UFO photos, but the authenticity of each of them is questionable: in some cases, lithe refraction, optical effects or other completely natural factors are blamed. However, now it seems that everything can change.
Brazilian UFO researcher Edie Meireles has captured strange images of a perfectly spherical UFO dotted with yellow “landing lights.” The photo has caused quite a stir among scientists, with some even suggesting that Meireles’ photo could be “the first UFO selfie in history.”
The photographer claims he noticed a dazzling lithe in the park while he was in his car. The man tried to start the engine but nothing happened, then he noticed a UFO over the roof of his car.
Meireles claims he abandoned his car and started running, then stopped and took the “first-ever selfie with a UFO.” Interestingly, the next day his car was towed away by a tractor-trailer because all of its electronics were out of order.
It is worth noting that the photo was taken in 2011 on a hiking trail leading to a chilly waterfall in the high-mountain Chapada Diamantina National Park in Brazil.
At the same time, the photographer himself claims that after taking the photo “they started chasing him”. Allegedly, two members of the UFO hunters' group were killed, and Meireles' house was attacked by “people in black and camouflage”.
However, while some scientists are ready to believe in the authenticity of the “world's first UFO selfie”, others are skeptical about the photo.
Some people, for example, claim that the photo can depict anything from “sky lanterns” held in the air by heated air from candles to a straightforward Photoshop graphic.
UFO hunter Meireles himself claims that his photos are completely original. He also claims that he returned to the national park after experiencing multiple, but less documented, UFO encounters.
According to the UFO hunter, he described the results of his subsequent expeditions in his book, after which he again experienced “unwanted encounters with the military.”
Meireles claims that as a result of the interrogation he suffered four fractures to his left ribs and knee, as well as a perforation with bleeding in his left lung. As a result, the UFO hunter was hospitalized for 12 days in a local hospital.
Interestingly, some researchers believe that the “UFO selfie” is actually nothing more than a military encounter. For example, Hélio Nunes de Camargo, the self-proclaimed founder of the UFOs in Chapada, Claims that Edi Meireles' research group was ultimately disbanded precisely because of alleged “military harassment.”
As a result, UFO researchers are divided: some consider the “first-ever UFO selfie” to be a complete lie, while others fully believe in the authenticity of the photos.
Interestingly, the author of the photo, Edie Meireles, from time to time posts photos on social media but refuses to comment on them.
