UFO. Brazil
Initial data
This week, the attention of the public has again been drawn to mysterious photographs taken by UFO researcher Edi Meireles in 2011. The pictures, which capture a glowing spherical object, were taken in the Chapada Diamantina National Park in Brazil, and continue to spark heated debates among ufologists and skeptics.
Meireles, known for his research in the field of unidentified flying objects, shared his photos on social media, claiming that they were taken during a hike to a remote waterfall. In one of the frames, a dark object with lights shining around its lower part is visible over the researcher's shoulder, and in another, it is seen hovering in the sky above the picturesque landscape.
According to him, after the photos were published, he faced threats and interrogations related to his observations. In 2016, he recounted the injuries he sustained as a result of one of the incidents, when he claims he was attacked.
"I sustained multiple injuries, including a broken rib and a punctured lung, and spent almost two weeks in the hospital," he recalled.
These words only fuel interest in his story, as many wonder what really happened in that remote corner of Brazil.
Meireles also shared his experience on the Reddit platform, describing one of his encounters with a UFO.
"I got out of the car and took a photo. It was an indescribably beautiful feeling to see a UFO so close," he wrote.
However, shortly after this, his car suddenly stalled, and according to the researcher, the same glowing object appeared on the roof of his car.
"I opened the door and ran. I even stopped to take a selfie with them," he added with a touch of irony.
The next day, his car was towed by a tractor, and according to Meireles, all the electrical components were burned. This incident adds even more mystique to his accounts and makes many people think about possible connections between UFOs and unusual technical malfunctions.
After his story was published on social media, the interest in it only grew. Local UFO researchers began to gather in the area where the incident occurred, hoping to find evidence or witnesses to confirm Meireles's account. Some of them even organized expeditions to study the area and conduct night sky observations.
Meireles also became the focus of attention for journalists and documentarians, who sought to capture his story on camera.
"I didn't expect it to become so extensive," he says. "I just wanted to share my experience, but now I feel part of something bigger."
Nevertheless, not everyone shares his enthusiasm. Skeptics point to the possibility of psychological factors, such as stress or hallucinations, which could have influenced Meireles's perception. Psychologists and UFO experts emphasize that such cases can often be explained by more familiar phenomena, such as atmospheric phenomena or even military tests.
Original news
The image shows a glowing, perfectly shaped spherical object, apparently dotted with yellow “landing lights.”
For many years, people around the world have reported unidentified flying objects (UFOs) that occasionally appear in different parts of the world.
There are many photos of UFOs , but the authenticity of each one is questionable: in some cases, refraction of light, optical effects or other completely natural factors are blamed. However, now it seems that everything may change.
Brazilian UFO researcher Edie Meireles has captured strange images of a perfectly spherical UFO dotted with yellow “landing lights.” The photo has caused quite a stir among scientists, with some even suggesting that Meireles’s snapshot may actually be “the first UFO selfie in history.”
The photographer claims that he noticed a bright glow in the park while he was in his car. The man tried to start the engine, but nothing happened, after which he noticed a UFO above the roof of his car.
Meireles claims that he left the car and started running, and then stopped and took that very “first-ever selfie with a UFO.” Curiously, the next day his car was towed by a tractor, since all the electronics in it did not work.
It should be noted that the photo was taken back in 2011 on a tourist trail to a cold waterfall in the high-mountain Chapada Diamantina National Park in Brazil.
At the same time, the photographer himself claims that after he took the photo, “they started hunting him.” Allegedly, two members of the UFO hunters’ group were killed, and Meireles’s house was attacked by “people in black and camouflage.”
However, despite the fact that some scientists are ready to believe in the reality of the “world’s first selfie with a UFO”, others are skeptical about the photo.
For example, some claim that the photo could actually depict anything: from “sky lanterns” that are held in the air by heated air from candles, to outright Photoshop.
UFO hunter Meireles himself claims that his photos are completely real. Moreover, he claims that he returned to the national park after that for repeated, but less well-documented, UFO encounters.
According to the UFO hunter, he wrote up the results of his subsequent expeditions in his book, after which he was again subjected to “unwanted encounters with the military.”
Meireles claims that as a result of the interrogation, he suffered four fractures to his left ribs and knee, as well as a perforation with bleeding in his left lung. As a result, the UFO hunter was hospitalized for 12 days at a local hospital.
Interestingly, some researchers believe that the “UFO selfie” is in fact nothing more than a military encounter. For example, Hélio Nunes de Camargo, the self-proclaimed founder of UFOs na Chapada, claims that Edi Meireles’ research group eventually disbanded precisely because of alleged “military harassment.”
As a result, the opinions of UFO researchers are divided: some consider the “first selfie with a UFO in history” to be an outright lie, while others fully believe in the authenticity of the photos.
It is curious that the author of the photo, Edie Meireles, continues to post photos on social networks from time to time, but refuses to comment on them in any way.
