In late August 1976, 11-year-old Hiroshi Tsutsui from the city of Himeji (Japan), and two of his friends were playing near their home when they noticed a dark object moving in the sky.

They made four color photographs of the object when it silently flew over head.

This was not the first time they had witnessed a similar object. A month before they saw a similar object and tried to photograph it but was unable to get the exposure right.

About these photos learned the public, when an employee at the shop noticed a strange object in the images. He also got in touch with the scientific-research organization studying UFOs.

Original news

In late August of 1976, 11-year-old Hiroshi Tsutsui of Himeji City, Japan, and two of his friends were playing near his home when they spotted a dark object moving towards them in the sky.

Hiroshi captured four color photos of the object as it silently flew overhead. 

This was the not the first time they witnessed this object. A month prior it was seen and photos were attempted, but they were unable to get the exposure correct.

The photos came to light when an employee in a photo shop noticed the strange pictures while going through processing and made a note to call the photographer. 

He also contacted a UFO research organization and advised them of the photos and the photographer. 

An examination of the photographs by photo experts failed to show any evidence of fraud. The object progression in the series of images is consistent and it grows in size as it approaches until a definite structured form is visible.
