A mother ship resembling a giant football, a whirling coin-shaped disk that flashes across the sky, a diamond-shaped craft with a brilliant, mirror-like surface…

These are among the most common UFO shapes, according to veteran UFO researcher Brad Steiger, author of Mysteries of Time and Space.

Here are detailed descriptions based on Steiger’s analysis of several thousand sightings over the past 40 years:

One reason the shapes are so varied is it depends on what the guy taking the pictures have on hand at the moment. You know, you've got to put something in the photo!

While I think the possibility of life on some other planet somewhere is highly likely, it hasn't been proved yet. Some UFO sightings may be of some other worldly craft, after all fighter pilots in WWII saw foo fighters and some commercial pilots have reported UFOs. However, the pics I have seen of them have mostly been proved as faked.

It also strongly resembles an incubator heat light.

That's a thought. Adamski may or may not have known about the German project. In any case, he needed a prop that would look weird if photographed out of context in a clever way. It was 1952, and Photoshop didn't exist, but darkrooms and airbrushes, etc., did. Medical gadgetry would have been a possibility. E.g., here's an incubator designed by a Norwegian firm:

Parts of that thing, especially the lid, could be a start.

George Adamski was a total whackjob, by the way.

I was wrong; it wasn’t an incubator, but a “chicken brooder.”
Try having a look at these links:
