Internal assessment documents evaluating the authenticity and potential origin of photographic evidence from the Calvine UFO incident.
The Calvine UFO photograph, taken on August 4, 1990, was analyzed by Ministry of Defence (MoD) intelligence branch DI55 and Royal Air Force photo analysts, who determined the images showed a structured craft of unknown origin rather than a hoax.
Analysts: The investigation was led by DI55 (Directorate of Scientific and Technical Intelligence) and supported by RAF photo analysts.
Findings: Specialists concluded the object was not fabricated, describing it as a diamond-shaped craft approximately 100 feet in diameter with no visible wings, fuselage, or engines.
Outcome: Despite the analysis confirming the photo's authenticity, the case was classified as top secret, the original negatives disappeared, and the identities of the witnesses remain unrevealed until at least 2076 due to privacy concerns.
