Every year, thousands of people report seeing things in the sky they can't explain. Science fiction offers an explanation: aliens visiting the human species on flying saucers.
The United States government reignited the conversation around UFOs when the Defense Department released video in late April showing footage from Navy in-flight cameras. In a press release , it confirmed that the videos show "unidentified aerial phenomena." The videos were already circulating on the internet for several years, but by releasing them, the DOD confirmed their authenticity and acknowledged that it had no explanation.

Kecksburg’s UFO Festival shelved, but firefighters hope ‘Old-Fashioned Day’ is
Summer celebration cancellations have now gone intergalactic, with the annual Kecksburg UFO Festival becoming the latest to shut down because of the coronavirus pandemic.
“There was a lot of discussion about it, but there is too much uncertainty right now regarding what is going to be allowed come the end of July,” said Kecksburg firefighter Kevin Hendrick.
The festival commemorates the unexplained Dec. 9, 1965, event when several people saw an object resembling a UFO land near the village in Mt. Pleasant Township.

The UFO Sightings that Pushed the UK to Take 'Flying Saucers' More Seriously - HISTORY
In late September 1952, only months after a rash of “flying saucer” sightings over Washington, D.C. made headlines around the world, dozens of military officers participating in NATO exercises in the North Atlantic were struck by their own UFO fever.
Exercise Mainbrace was the largest peacetime military exercise since World War II . The war-game-style maneuvers simulated NATO’s response to a mock attack on Europe, presumably by the Soviet Union . The Mainbrace operation involved 200 ships, 1,000 planes and 80,000 soldiers from multiple NATO countries—including large deployments from the United States and the United Kingdom.

The term UFO, along with others like "unidentified aerial phenomena" and "unidentified flying object," does not necessarily mean the object is thought to be extraterrestrial. Many such sightings ultimately end up having logical and earthly explanations — often involving military technology.
The Department of Defense videos show pilots confused by what they are seeing. In one video, a pilot said: "What the f--- is that thing?"
