This photograph was taken from a mapping plane from the government of Costa Rica 10,000 feet above Lago de Cote, Costa Rica 1971 with a high resolution camera automatically taking a picture every 17 seconds.

This object was capured on one of the frames as the plane was mapping the ground. After careful analysis it was determined that the object was a real three dimentional airborne object.

It shows in extraordinary detail all features of the landscape (water, shoreline, trees, etc.) and you’ll notice how it was determined that the object (about 600+ ft. or 200 meters in diameter) was coming into or out of the water at an angle of approximately 30° in relation to the surface of the water.
