Tourists claim to have seen a UFO during their vacation in Ushuaia, Argentina.

A group of Argentinian tourists on a catamaran excursion through the Beagle Channel in Ushuaia managed to capture images of what appeared to be an unidentified flying object (UFO) in the sky.

However, none of the tourists noticed its presence at the time; the discovery was made when they reviewed the photographs later.

According to local media reports, the images show a round, metallic, and bronze-colored object floating over the channel's waters. In some photos, the figure appears in a horizontal position, while in others, it tilts slightly to one side.

The reflection of the sun on its surface suggests it could be a physical object and not an image defect or an optical phenomenon, as often occurs in other sightings. The tourists, surprised by this "close encounter of the third kind," shared the photos immediately.

The case sparked an intense debate on social media, where some users suggested it could be a craft of unknown origin. Others tried to investigate further but found no conclusive evidence. What is certain is that Tierra del Fuego has been the scene of several UFO sighting testimonies, and specialists are analyzing the photos.

"It's Larreta," some users claimed on social media, mocking the failed Argentinian presidential candidate, who is linked with extraterrestrial races.

Last year, a Pentagon report on this phenomenon indicated that U.S. government investigations since the end of World War II had found no evidence of extraterrestrial technology and concluded that most sightings were misinterpreted common objects.

So far, no official explanations have been given about what happened, and the debate remains open on social media, where the image continues to generate surprise and mystery among users.
