Mysterious lights over Capitol Hill sparks fears of UFOs in Washington DC
An ominous quartet of gleaming lights above the United States Capitol building have left some afraid the alien invasion has finally arrived.
The photo — taken at night just outside of Congress, with the dome of Capitol Hill in full view – was taken by US Air Force veteran Dennis Diggins who now works as a licensed tour guide in the Washington DC area, as well as a professional travel director.
The eerie triangular formation of lights that Diggins captured in his photo seems to hover just feet over the ‘Statue of Freedom’ at the top of the Capitol dome.
‘That’s absolutely insane,’ one spectator said of the strange glowing orbs, which looked like landing lights on some otherworldly craft.
The image comes just weeks after a pair of stunning public hearings in both the US Senate and the House of Representatives, where lawmakers probed current and retired Pentagon officials over the state of intelligence on what used to be called ‘flying saucers.’
The House’s hearing included a first look at a bizarre, unsettling report alleging that an illegal ‘Unacknowledged Special Access Program’ named ‘Immaculate Constellation’ had been set up to ‘detect, quarantine, and transfer‘ UFO data away from public view.
But while some were clamoring for video that might link this new sighting to this wider UFO debate on the Hill, others pushed back on the speculative furor over these strange lights.
