Crop circles are patterns created by flattened crops such as wheat or corn in a field. The earliest known crop circle was discovered in England in 1648. While some believe they are caused by natural phenomena like tornadoes, others theorize they are made by UFOs, satellites, or humans. Complex geometric designs have been found that would be very difficult for humans to create with such precision. Some evidence used to support the theory that crop circles are not made by humans includes errors found that cannot be undone and witness accounts of spheres hovering over fields during formation.
