To the point

Two walkers photographed a hovering diamond-shaped craft near Calvine in 1990; the prints were given to the MoD, the originals disappeared, witnesses’ identities remain unknown, and researchers such as Nick Pope, David Clarke, and James Fox kept the case alive by uncovering archives and a donated print, with experts deeming the image a real photo but not totally proven.

Calvine UFO photograph - Wikipedia

Two walkers' 1990 Calvine sighting of a low-humming, diamond-shaped craft photographed before it vanished—with Harrier jet passes—led to prints handed to the MoD, originals disappearing, and witnesses' identities remaining unknown, triggering a long-running saga foregrounded by David Clarke and Nick Pope, involving a DI55 investigation and Vu-Foils copies, later disclosure by RAF press officer Craig Lindsay and a print donated to Sheffield Hallam University, analysis by Andrew Robinson suggesting a genuine photograph of a real scene though staging could not be ruled out, the reverse bearing the name Kevin Russell, renewed attention after a 2022 Daily Mail feature, and ongoing debate about government knowledge of UFOs highlighted by James Fox's 2024 The Program.
