CLAIM-131008hoax
Clark summarizes later photoanalysis that estimated one Adamski “UFO” at less than eight inches across and characterized it as a crude hoax; he also cites William L. Moore's finding that the scoutcraft photographs depicted a model closely matching a spacecraft design published months before the alleged encounter.
