Open this case in the interactive AtlasCase description
Official source account — 2016 annual report, printed page 38: María San Martín found a bright apparent object while reviewing a photograph of a parachutist taken at Rada Tilly on 22 May 2016. CEFAE used the alignment between the anomaly, the suspected light source and the center of the image. The agency concluded that the mark was compatible with internal lens flare. The source describes the object as a photographic discovery rather than a separately witnessed aerial encounter.
The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
