1870 - Mt. Washington, New Hampshire. This photo is noted as, "the oldest UFO photograph ever taken." This item, was up for bidding at Ebay in 2002. Samuel M. Sherman,then president of Independent Pictures Corp, had won the bidding and acquired the photo for a mere $ 385.00.
This was originally a "stereo" photograph. Surely it would be difficult to manipulate photos at that time, and besides, there were no flying objects then; at least, not from this world until 1903.
What is a UFO?
Well, "Unidentified Flying Object" comes to mind. An unidentified flying object, often abbreviated UFO or U.F.O., is an unusual apparent anomaly in the sky that is not readily identifiable to the observer as any known object, often associated with extraterrestrial life, as noted by WikipeadeA.
