In the summer of 1965, newspapers carried cover headlines
about UFOs spotted in many states. Orange County, California Highway worker
Rex Heflin kept a Polaroid camera in his truck at all times. It was used
to document road conditions throughout the region. One summer day as Heflin was
out surveying the territory in Tustin near Dyer Road, he spotted an object
in the air.
He took 4 pictures which were published in The Register
newspaper. The photos are now owned and in the possession of UFO researcher
and author Ann Druffel. Recent university analysis to determine authenticity
of the photos and the possibility of manipulation will likely be consistent
with previous findings. The photos have never been proven to be anything
but authentic.
Several individuals who have studied the photos and can
provide in depth analysis include Jeff Sainio, Robert M. Wood and Bruce
Maccabbee. Robert M. Wood is co-researching the photos with Ann Druffel
and the team could release a peer reviewed article some time.
