Does anyone know if the photo on the right is an actual photograph, or an artistic conception of the real object that was observed that night in Phoenix ?
According to most of the documentation on the incident, a picture of the actual huge , triangular object was never taken, however this picture shows up in many sites that describe the incident, and also in the research that Dr Lynne Kitel did, along with her book on the subject.
The image on the left is really the flares picture , taken later that night and is not the display that most people that witnessed the event saw.earlier in the evening, after dusk. That picture shows up in every site that discusses Phoenix, and is really not the subject of interest.
The image on the right, clearly shows an angled object, and illustrates more of what people saw and reported. I wonder if it is a real picture. Does anyone have more info here? Thanks
The one on the left looks more true to the night sky in question and the lights look like exactly what i saw from williams AFB. The picture on the right reminds me of all the digital renderings online because the object is too low. you can practically see the people inside that store in the photo. The sky was too dark and the image o clear for 1997. But im no expert. I also dont remember it actually being so pointed but i was on he far ends of the city when we saw it.
