Crop Circles

Story

Crop Circles are complex geometric patterns that appear in cereal fields around the world. The phenomenon became widely known during the 1970s in the United Kingdom, where increasingly elaborate formations were discovered. Some creations cover hundreds of meters and display highly detailed designs that can only be fully appreciated from the air. While several individuals have admitted to creating certain circles as artistic hoaxes, other formations continue to spark debate because of their complexity or the unusual circumstances surrounding their appearance. Theories range from artistic pranks and poorly understood natural phenomena to extraterrestrial intervention.
