The British newspaper Mirror reported a strange incident involving the appearance of a large mysterious object resembling a spaceship in Britain, which was visible for 10 seconds before disappearing quickly. According to the newspaper, 36-year-old British man Matthew Evans photographed the large mysterious object hovering at night over the seafront in Teignmouth, Devon, for a duration of ten seconds.
The images captured by Evans show four bright lights forming a triangle illuminating part of the sky. He managed to take photos before the mysterious object quickly took off. Matthew Evans stated, "The strange object that appeared in the sky was not moving like a plane. It moved much slower and went up and down for ten seconds before it disappeared quickly... The light was really bright. I didn't know what this strange object could be, so I decided to take a picture."
In a related note, an American report on unidentified flying objects released last month concluded that there is no evidence of extraterrestrial beings, but it did not clarify the mysterious phenomena observed by U.S. military pilots, while the Pentagon expressed concerns that they may be linked to espionage. The U.S. Department of Defense published videos recorded by U.S. Navy pilots last year during encounters while flying with unidentified flying objects. One recording dates back to November 2004, and the other two to January 2015.
After decades of secrecy, Congress ordered the executive branch last year to inform the public about the activities of the Pentagon unit responsible for studying these phenomena, a task entrusted to the U.S. Navy. The report, overseen by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), concluded that the majority of over 120 incidents of this type are certainly not related to technologies tested by the U.S. military, according to The New York Times.
This is the only confirmed finding in the report, which did not completely rule out the possibility of extraterrestrial aircraft, as reported by CNN citing unnamed officials. Several officials mentioned to The New York Times that keeping part of the report classified for defense reasons could fuel speculation regarding the U.S. government's secret information about the existence of extraterrestrial beings.
It remains difficult to explain the acceleration of the objects photographed by the pilots and their ability to change directions. The same newspaper reported that a U.S. intelligence official expressed concerns that China or Russia may be testing hypersonic technologies capable of moving at speeds 10 or 20 times faster than sound, which can be easily maneuvered.
