US EditionUFO image shown at US congressional hearing debunked
- Luis Elizondo presented a grainy photograph of a large lenticular object during a U.S. Congressional hearing in Washington, D.C., in early May 2025.
- The image, reportedly taken by a civilian pilot near the Four Corners region at about 21,000 feet altitude, was shown to illustrate many unreported incidents faced by commercial and private pilots.
- Skeptic Mick West and internet analysts noted the photo likely depicts two irrigation circles visible on Google Maps, where one circle’s darker tone mimics a shadow, calling the object an optical illusion.
- The object’s diameter was estimated between 600 and 1,000 feet, described as a silver-hued, disc-shaped flying saucer, but the shadow’s direction was inconsistent with surrounding features.
- The event panel confirmed that the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community hold hundreds of similar classified UAP images and sensor files, while the photographed object’s authenticity remains uncertain or possibly debunked.
