A self-titled UFO expert claims that another unidentified flying object has been spotted flying over a mountainous area in Tennessee.

In an entry on the ET Database, UFO enthusiast Scott C. Waring said he has found a photo showing a UFO flying over Blackberry Mountain resort in Tennessee. He said he was looking at the EarthCams’ live camera when something in the website’s archives caught his attention.

Waring said a video the EarthCam recorded on May 4 showed what looked like a big “metallic disk” flying over Blackberry Mountain as the sun was setting that day. This “metallic disk” is a UFO, he claimed. Sunsets are the best time of day to go and watch the sky for UFOs, he said, and this “metallic disk” is one of those UFOs.

Furthermore, Waring also claimed that the clouds behind the “metallic disk” were intentionally placed there by the UFO. He said UFOs usually hide in the clouds that they make and place around themselves. If the UFOs fly too fast, he explained, they will leave a trail of clouds just like what is seen in the photo.

Alternatively, the trail ouf clouds seen in the photo could’ve been caused by the wind picking up, Waring said.

UFO Clouds

Clouds shaped like alien spaceships are nothing new and nothing to be afraid of. In 2015, for example, a group of clouds that looked more like UFOs as depicted in the movies formed above Cape Town in South Africa and were shared online via Instagram.

The photos showed what meteorologists called “lenticular clouds,” the National Geographic reported. These clouds form above rough terrain such as mountains or valleys when strong, moist winds blow over them. Cape Town has both mountains and valleys, and is thus likely to see such clouds in certain weather conditions.

Blackberry Mountain, situated in the Great Smoky Mountains of Eastern Tennessee, sits proudly atop rough terrain. This could explain why the clouds formed the “metallic disk” Waring considered a UFO.

Mind trick?

Mr. Waring’s perception of the clouds over Blackberry Mountain in Tennessee could be attributed to what experts from NASA refer to as “pareidolia,” a psychological mind trick that makes people see shapes and figures in unrelated things.
