It always ends up being something completely explainable, like birds, planes, floating balloons, imaging artifacts, out-of-focus stars, what have you. Forgive me for not suspending my disbelief this time when every previous time disbelief has ended up winning the day.

It's well known that you can get all sorts of problematic radar artifacts that don't end up being real objects. Hell, the world was almost ended over some: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Soviet_nuclear_false_alar...

Crying out for help to be convinced. It's a sad sounding existence you related in that comment. Without hope. Defeated. ;p ;) xx

1997 phoenix lights, Italy 1960s Friendship case, Belgian UFO wave, Mexico City mass sighting...it doesn't "always turn out to be something explainable" at all
