What is the official explanation?
No government statement. A Russian research group rated a CGI fake as unlikely, favoring smoke and flares, while skeptics note that an object hovering over Moscow for hours would have produced thousands of videos, not a handful.
What did the witnesses think it was?
No consistent named witnesses; the material spread as anonymous viral uploads.
Is the Moscow Pyramid real? The two-pass assessment
The headline clip has real hoax indicators, but the flat it-is-CGI verdict is a widely repeated claim not verified from a primary source, so it is logged as debunk asserted, not demonstrated.
