This cylindrical-appearing UFO was photographed over New York City on March 20, 1950. The photographer's name was deleted from Project Blue Book's files -- as were most names when the material was finally declassified and released. Upon investigating the report, Project Grudge officially labeled it: "the moon"! Some ufologists have speculated that tubular objects of this sort may be "mother ships," purportedly capable of taking on and discharging smaller "craft" in stacks, poker-chip fashion.

Are some ufologists really incapable to see that it's a long exposure of the moon?

Yeah, at first I was thinking it looked like a first stage of some rocket. But yeah it’s a long exposure of the moon

What about the stars around the moon? Shouldnt they leave a lighttrail too?

A long exposure would have star lines as well.
