UFO: THE CONICAL CRAFT: Spinning Cones, Double-Cones, and the Problem of Aerial Shape
Some unidentified aerial phenomena are reported as discs, spheres, cylinders, or triangles. A smaller and far more elusive group appears as cones, truncated cones, spinning tops, and double-cone structures.
But does the reported shape truly belong to the object?
UFO: THE CONICAL CRAFT investigates one of the rarest and most unstable geometries in the UFO record. Drawing on official archives, military reports, witness testimony, sensor data, aerospace documentation, and modern case investigations, John Mesh examines how conical objects have been observed, classified, interpreted, and sometimes explained.
The investigation moves from early daylight reports and Cold War case files to the Trancrainville and Bacqueville encounters, before presenting a detailed examination of the 2023 Eglin UAP case and AARO's subsequent reconstruction.
This volume explores:
- cones, truncated cones, spinning tops, and double-cone configurations
- the relationship between conical, diamond-shaped, bell-shaped, and capsule-like objects
- rotation, tumbling, reflected sunlight, and rhythmic flashes
- balloons, suspended payloads, rockets, nose cones, and atmospheric reentry
- searchlights, cloud projections, autokinesis, and apparent acceleration
- the difference between unresolved evidence and extraordinary interpretation
Rather than assuming that every unusual silhouette represents an unknown technology, this book separates documented facts, original testimony, later claims, and official investigative conclusions.
After perspective, illumination, conventional aerospace objects, sensor limitations, and incomplete reporting have been considered, does a coherent category of conical craft remain?
A rigorous investigation into the point where aerial geometry, human perception, and unidentified phenomena meet.
