UFO sightings

Reported aerial anomalies

UFO sightings are reported observations of unidentified flying objects—lights or craft in the sky that witnesses cannot explain.

The term carries associations with alien spacecraft, though most sightings have mundane explanations: aircraft, satellites, weather balloons, or atmospheric phenomena.

UFO sightings spiked after the military released declassified footage.

The phrase often appears in discussions of government transparency and extraterrestrial life.
