Incredible pics of ‘first UFO selfie’ resurface showing glowing spherical craft with yellow ‘landing lights’

A BRAZILLIAN alien researcher has snapped what many believe is the first-ever UFO selfie.
The snap was taken by UFO researcher Edie Meireles shows a spherical UFO with yellow landing lights.
Eddie was on a hiking trail to La Cascada De La Purificacion, a waterfall in Brazil's Chapada Diamantina National Park when he took the selfie in 2011.
However, his snap has led to problems with the military. Since the sighting, Meireles said his home was raided by "soldiers camouflaged in black."
Despite the apparent military threat, Meireles boasted on Facebook in 2022 that his candid snaps were the only selfies with the spaceship.
He also spoke about his experience in his book Fieldworkers: Pesquisadores de Campo in 2016, which attracted further attention from the military.
Speaking to Museu da Pessoa, a Brazillian non-profit group, Meireles said: "The result of the interrogation was […] Fractures: 4 left ribs and left knee […] Perforation with bleeding in the left lung."
"I was hospitalised for 12 days at the Chapada Regional Hospital, in Seabra-Ba, my medical history is there for anyone who wants to investigate."
Chapada Diamantina National Park was established in September 1985 to protect a host of rare, endangered species native to these Atlantic Forest plateaus 3,000 feet above sea level.
It is home to a giant armadillo, a giant anteater, a Chaco eagle and potentially home to extraterrestrials.
Taking to social media platform Reddit where the image was posted, one user described his experience.
He said: "Holy F***, this is identical to what I saw right before Covid hit.
"The bottom rotated when it glowed red with an orange centre, and then it did a quick zig-zag and it was gone.
"I screamed laughed and cried. I had no idea what I just saw but I knew it wasn’t ours."
However, UFO sceptics believe the photo was photoshopped or a prop was used in the background to achieve the world-first snap.
One person said: "It's a pyrotechnic balloon (no people on it).
"This one is blurry due to low light, but features the Brazillian flag on it.
"You can also see fire on the bottom and the smoke coming from it."
