In 2022, crop circles continued to appear, particularly in the UK, with the first formation of the year being found in Winchester, England, in a field of rapeseed. These formations, often complex and symmetrical, are typically found in fields of standing grain and are a subject of much speculation, with some believing them to be of supernatural or extraterrestrial origin, while others attribute them to human pranksters.
The 2022 crop circle season was defined by extreme summer heatwaves and highly complex geometric designs that leaned heavily into cosmic and mathematical symbolism. Due to a historically dry summer in the UK, the agricultural fields matured rapidly. This gave researchers a shorter, fast-paced window to document the formations before early harvests took place.
