NASA fooled by fake UFO

( July 27, 2011 | Agence France-Presse )

Agence France-Presse reports that a photograph of an unidentified flying object flying over Belgium was a fake. It was the work of a man identified only as "Patrick" who, along with his friends, "made it, painted it, hung it up and then photographed it".

The photograph, purporting to show a triangular UFO, was said to have been made in 1990 with a polystyrene scale model. Even the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) examined the photograph and thought it to be genuine.


The fake UFO photo was made at a time when Belgium experienced a rash in UFO sightings. "Patrick" made the revelation recently on the Belgian television network RTL-TVI.
