Portugal

In Coimbra, in the East of Portugal, the man, whose identity was not disclosed, took a picture of something strange in the sky. The witness presented his story on the website of MUFON.

13 Sep 2014 the weather was good. So it was a perfect day to visit the Botanical garden in Coimbra. While walking the witness took a picture of the tree that he found particularly majestic. Later, he noticed the presence of flying saucers in the sky, on one of my shots.

UFO had a metallic appearance and was quiet and invisible to the naked eye.

Original news

A Coimbra, dans l’Est du Portugal, une personne, dont l’identité n’a pas été révélée, a photographié quelque chose que l’on pourrait aisément qualifiée d’étrange dans le ciel. Le témoin a livré son récit sur le site du MUFON.

Le 13 septembre 2014, le beau temps était au rendez-vous. C’était donc la journée idéale pour se rendre dans un jardin botanique de Coimbra. En se promenant, le témoin prit en photo un arbre qu’il trouvait particulièrement majestueux. Plus tard, il constata la présence d’une sorte desoucoupe volante de forme conique, haut dans le ciel, sur l’un de ses clichés.

L’OVNI avait un aspect métallique et était silencieux et peut-être même invisible à l’œil nu. De quoi s’agit-il ? Certains considéreront qu’il s’agit d’un oiseau, d’autres pencheront davantage pour l’hypothèse extraterrestre ? Et vous, qu’en pensez-vous ?

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Objects in motion, captured on a long exposure

Most often this artifact is called skayfish if the lens gets a passing bird or insect. It is based on the discrepancy between the speed of the video and the frequency of the flapping of insect wings. Essentially, each video drops a few strokes of the wings of an insect, which when viewed looks like "arrow", provided with long protuberances. The motion of the insect by its translucent body seems to "boom" and vibration of the wings give the appearance of bumps.

Due to the peculiarities of the bird's flight, it is possible to capture a moment in the photo when an ordinary bird will resemble a "classic" UFO in shape.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

On the basis of statements of the witness that the object appeared only in the photo and was not visible when shooting, and also from its characteristic appearance, it is possible to conclude that this bird accidentally flying past at the moment of shooting.
