.LMartinezABC reports on unidentified aerial phenomena and Congress' first hearing on UFOs in more than 50 years.

Officials said in congressional testimony they are"reasonably" sure pyramid-shaped objects in one video were drones.

Last year's intelligence report could only explain one of the documented 144 encounters and did not contain the words"alien" or"extraterrestrial." The report stated then that the UAP incidents would require further study. "Our goal is to strike that delicate balance: one that enables us to maintain the public's trust while preserving those capabilities that are vital to the support of our service personnel," he said.

In one of the more notable cases, the officials detailed how"considerable effort" went into determining a theory for what was observed.
