foo fighter
Pilot's mysterious light
Foo fighter was World War II slang among Allied pilots for unexplained aerial phenomena—mysterious lights or objects seen during flight missions.
The term likely derived from a nonsense exclamation in the comic strip Smokey Stover.
Reports described glowing balls that followed aircraft but caused no harm.
The term later named the rock band Foo Fighters, formed in 1994.
