UFO photographed in Maryland in 1949

Summary

In September 1949, a U.S. Army officer captured an image that has sparked debate for decades. The photograph, taken with a Speed Graphic camera and Super XX film, shows an unidentified object in the sky above Camp Holabird, Maryland. The object appears as a bright sphere with a halo around it, leading to various theories about its nature. Although some suggest it could be an atmospheric phenomenon, others insist there is no conventional explanation.

The image, taken at 09:30 hours, was recorded with precise technical settings: 1/100 second, f/11 aperture, and focused at infinity. This adds credibility to the authenticity of the photograph. Despite efforts to identify the object, no definitive conclusion has been reached. The document includes a detailed technical description, but no official explanation from the army is mentioned. This image remains a mystery to many UFO researchers.
