Three photos, three investigations and three INSANELY FASCINATING stories.

The Solway Firth Spaceman.

It's fascinated and intrigued thousands of armchair detectives around the world. It's been hotly debated for over 60 years but here's some new evidence that casts light on the mystery.

Were we really visited by an alien from outer space on 23rd May 1964 or is there a more earthly explanation to this riddle? It was 'debunked' some years ago but many still do not believe the explanation.

The photograph has been unexplained for decades but this video gets us closer to the truth than ever before. It's one of the most famous photos of all time and we're going to deconstruct it like never before.

Researchers and armchair detectives have poured over every bit of detail of this photograph and many believe it IS them.
