UFO researchers have announced the latest alleged ‘evidence’ an advanced alien species has been spotted on a visit to Earth. The latest ‘proof’ arrives in the form of an odd anomaly photographed over Poland.
Alien life conspiracy theorist Scott Waring took to his etdatabase.com blog to speculate about the amateur images found on social media site Facebook.
He said: “A white pillar shaped UFO was seen in the sky over Warsaw, Poland two weeks ago.
“The object which was seen during the day really stands out, but has taken a white appearance to match the clouds that it probably will hide within.
“This strange shaped UFO is tall, thicker on the bottom, thin on its top, with a single arm coming out.

“This is absolutely a UFO, watching over Poland, possibly with the intentions of understanding how the Polish are dealing with both coronavirus and Poland’s aggressive neighbour, Russia.”
However, closer examination of the viral photograph from Poland indicates the object in question may simply be a manmade plane or weather balloon.
The alleged ‘alien’ object is therefore instead yet another a case of pareidolia.
This is a form of apophenia, an effect causing people to see recognisable shapes and patterns where they do not exist.
“It had a very definite shape – a cylindrical object – it was white – it had a long arm that stuck out on the side.
“I don’t know whether it was a very small object up close or a very large object a long way away. There was nothing to judge by.
“I really don’t know how big it was. We had two cameras that were just floating in the spacecraft at the time, so I grabbed one and took a picture of [the object] and grabbed the other and took a picture.
“Then I turned on the rocket control systems because I was afraid we might hit it.
“At the time we were drifting – without checking I have no idea which way we were going – but as we drifted up a little farther the Sun shone on the window of the spacecraft.
“The windshield was dirty – just like in an automobile, you can’t see through it.
“So I had the rocket control engines going again and moved the spacecraft so that the window was in darkness again – the object was gone.
“I called down later and told them what had happened and they went back and checked their records of other space debris that was flying around but we were never able to identify what it could have been.
“The film was sent back to NASA and reviewed by some NASA film technicians.
“One of them selected what he thought was what we talked about, at least before I had a chance to review it.
“It was not the picture – it was a picture of a sun reflection on the window.”
