U.S. Navy pilots off the coast of Jacksonville, Florida, spotted Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) during recent training missions, which has true believers and Space Force enthusiasts grabbing their tinfoil hats and "I told you so" smirks.
But just because the objects aren't identified (publicly, anyway), that doesn't necessarily mean they're extraterrestrial.
So what are they?
If the Navy knows, they're not saying, but similar sightings in the past have turned out to be tests the pilots weren't briefed on, foreign aircraft, or "weather balloons."

Video shot by U.S. fighter pilots on a training mission off the coast of Jacksonville, Florida, is making even skeptics do a double take. The incident gained enough attention to merit a a congressional briefing. On Wednesday, June 19, a group of senators received a classified briefing about the series of encounters.
"Navy officials did indeed meet with interested congressional members and staffers on Wednesday to provide a classified brief on efforts to understand and identify these threats to the safety and security of our aviators," Joseph Gradisher, spokesman for the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Warfare, told CNN.
Politico first reported the story, who spoke with the office of Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. "If naval pilots are running into unexplained interference in the air, that's a safety concern Senator Warner believes we need to get to the bottom of," said Warner's spokesperson, Rachel Cohen.
At this time, the details of the sightings remain classified, but that doesn't mean you Space Force warriors shouldn't be getting in shape for your PT tests. Planet Earth is counting on you.
