Picture this: a colossal pyramid-shaped object, hovering silently above the Kremlin in Moscow. You’d be forgiven for thinking it’s another wild hoax—but hold that thought. Sixteen years ago, Russia’s biggest media outlets reported on it. Videos, photos, and countless witnesses back it up, yet this event has faded from collective memory. How does something so extraordinary just vanish from our minds?
Of course, it can all be written off as a hoax. But not so long ago, the same thing was said about UFOs, wasn’t it?
What if I told you it wasn’t an isolated case? Here in the U.S., we’ve had our own uninvited guests. Fast forward nine years to December 19, 2018, and a similar huge craft allegedly appeared above the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Does that ring a bell? Probably not—and that’s hardly surprising. For reasons that defy explanation, these incidents barely make a ripple in the news.
These incidents, captured on video and corroborated by eyewitnesses, suggest something extraordinary. Yet, the official silence is deafening.
The Kremlin Sighting
On that chilly December night in 2009, Moscow residents looked up to see an enormous, dark pyramid floating above the Kremlin. Videos, widely available on platforms like YouTube, show a quadrangular structure.
That same morning, a luminous spiral illuminated the sky over Norway, which Russian authorities dismissed as a failed missile test. Reports from The Telegraph and NBC News covered the pyramid, yet the story faded quickly.
Eyewitness Dimitri Kazantsev described it as “unlike anything I’ve ever seen”.
“The object has been compared to an Imperial Cruiser in the Star Wars films and witnesses estimated it could be up to a mile wide. Two film clips exist which appear to show the same object and footage has been repeatedly playing on Russian television news channels,” The Telegraph wrote about this back in 2009.
The identity of the shape has not been confirmed. Russian reports ruled out a UFO but police refused to comment. Nick Pope, a former Ministry of Defence UFO analyst, said it was “one of the most extraordinary UFO clips I’ve ever seen”.
