UFO construction plan

UFOs are real. The Air Force doesn't exist. -- Discordian Koan.

Barring omniscience, there will always be some things in the sky that humanity can't identify. However, in popular meaning, "Unidentified Flying Object" has come to mean "Alien Spacecraft", a decidedly less-uncertain meaning. Identifying UFOs as flying saucers negates the "U" part of UFO, as a matter of fact. As of yet, no verifiedly alien machinery has ever been found on Earth. We have, however, left examples of alien machinery on the Moon and Mars, and quite possibly Venus. There are also two or three hurtling out of the solar system, on their way to starring roles in Star Trek movies.

The USAF line

The United States Air Force "identify" all unidentified flying objects as "weather balloons". So there.

A random farmer's perspective

In "reality", thah hahd paht is ahdentifahying flahying objicks - ahspeshially aht naht.[1] Durin' the dayh, we can seez them black gummint helicoptahs, them CIA gummint test planes, and the aly-an spacecrahfts lookin' for probe donors, but at naht, well, all baits is (or wuz) off. Who knows what them dung thangs is, flyin' ovah mah fahm at 3 AM when I gits up to pee? Prolly some gummint seekrit spah [2] 'speriment thing — or thah aliens come to probe mah everlovin' butt. Dang aly-ans, they never cuddle afterwahds. Dang :(
