Secret UFO dossier about famous UK sighting restricted from public for another 50 years

A secret dossier that details one of Britain’s most famous UFO sightings is to be kept secret for another 50 years.

It apparently contains incredible colour photos taken in 1990 that allegedly show a 100ft craft hovering over Calvine in the Scottish Highlands.

Two hikers were walking in the area when suddenly they say they saw a diamond shaped aircraft over the landscape before speeding off into the distance.

The two hikers took pictures of the craft and immediately contacted journalists from the Scottish Daily Record Newspaper.

After viewing their photos, the journalists chose to share both pictures and negatives with the Ministry of Defence.

A 30-year rule meant the file was meant to be declassified in January next year, but the Ministry of Defence has now blocked its release for another 50 years, until 2072.

Infamous 2004 UFO committed ‘act of war’, says pilot who saw it

One of the pilots whose encounter with a mysterious – and still unexplained – object off the coast of the US in 2004 says whatever it was, it committed an “act of war”.

In November 2004, anomalies had been detected on radar off the coast of California. Commander David Fravor, then a US Navy pilot, was dispatched to investigate – later describing what he saw as “like nothing I’ve ever seen” – a 14m-long Tic Tac-shaped object able to turn on a dime and make itself invisible to radar.

He was followed by other pilots who managed to catch it on video. Clips were leaked in 2017 by a UFO research group founded by punk singer Tom DeLonge of Blink 182, and formally declassified in 2020 by the Pentagon. 

Fravor recently appeared on a podcast hosted by MIT research scientist Lex Fridman, who called him “one of the most credible witnesses” in the history of UFO research.
