Moon UFO theories often tie into bizarre lunar images and odd rock formations. In one notable case, researcher Javedoni Eric claimed to see a long, shiny object on the Moon. The object looked metallic and unlike a natural feature. As a result, he suggested it might be the wreckage of a crashed craft.
Moon UFO Dimensions and Shape
Based on the image, Eric estimated the object measures around 190 meters long and 40 meters wide. Moreover, its reflective surface hinted at metal material. Therefore, some researchers think it may be an artificial structure or spacecraft.
Moon UFO: Impact or Static?
It is unclear if the object is stationary or a crash site. Eric proposed it fragmented into two sections during an impact. Thus, its appearance may reflect that break-up.
Unlikely a Lunar Rock
Eric and some ufologists argue that the object’s straight edges, symmetry, and shine differ drastically from lunar rocks or meteors. In addition, they suggest it might represent alien technology or a man-made probe.
Moon UFO vs. Scientific Evidence
Despite these bold claims, there’s no validation from any space agency. However, credible science has revealed genuine lunar oddities:
- In 2024, researchers found reflective dust and magnetic anomalies on meter-sized boulders in the Reiner Gamma region. This discovery was made using AI and images from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
- Scientists also identified a hidden mass beneath the South Pole–Aitken Basin. It may be the remains of a massive asteroid or dense underground magma, weighing billions of tons and warping the crater floor.
- Lunar soil from China’s Chang’e-5 mission contained magnetite grains formed under extreme impact. These particles could explain lunar magnetic hotspots.
Why the Moon Still Intrigues
NASA officially ended manned Moon missions due to budget limits. Nevertheless, conspiracy theories cite anomalies like Eric’s object as possible reasons why humans haven’t returned. If verified, such finds would revolutionize our understanding of the Moon and extraterrestrial presence.
