Most reports described orbs, lights or cylinders, but about 4% were more unusual: 'green fireball,' 'a jelly fish with [multicolored] flashing lights,' a 'silver rocket approximately six feet long.'
The Pentagon office investigating reports of unidentified anomalous phenomena , the government's term for UFO s, received 21 reports last year that contain enough data for the intelligence community to continue actively investigating.
The office resolved 49 of the cases by identifying the object as various types of balloons, birds or drones, and it expects to resolve 243 others by identifying them as one of those objects, as well. Another 444 didn't have enough data to keep investigating, so the office will go into the its active archive to see if other data can be found.
