2015: Is this REALLY a cloud? Mysterious UFO pictures from ‘real X-files’ fan conspiracy flames

Is the picture above really a cloud? Honestly, that’s what the U.S. government wants you to believe. A new website is offering searchable access to the files of Project Blue Book – American UFO-hunters whose work has been described as ‘the real X-files’ and who dealt with thousands of pictures of extraterrestrial invaders throughout the 40s, 50s, and 60s.
