Aliens are real 2015. The Pope's lead astronomer says aliens exist and really real scientists think there's an alien megastructure in space. Plus there was that UFO sighting last month. How much more proof is needed? Oh, the photographic kind? This Russian woman's got you covered since an alien photobombed her selfie. 

Olesya Podkorytov from the terrestrial city of Kurgan was reportedly on a business trip when she took the selfie on a plane. Selfies aren't a part of Podkorytov's usual behavior, she said, but the stars aligned to make this moment happen. Once she posted the photo on social media extra terrestrial experts started pointing out the alien figure just rows behind her.  

"Only after that I realised there was a bizarre-looking image of a creature behind me," said Podkorytov after reading the comments. She described the figure as a "humanoid" without eyes and a "one-piece" dark green body. 

Others believed the figure was a ghost—still an unsettling explanation. Aviation expert Viktor Lunev was skeptical and commented on the photo: "Pilots and stewards are very superstitious and maybe there is a reason." He added, "In my experience I have never encountered anything of that kind. Maybe we could explain it with reference to some of the basic laws of physics."

Or maybe it's actually an alien sent on a mission to stop that one Russian billionaire from investing$100 million on finding aliens and now it's been exposed and we're all doomed. We had a good run y'all.
