Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the U.S. Department of Defense’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), confirmed Wednesday, during a meeting on an independent NASA panel studying unidentified flying objects (UFOs), that metallic orbs sighted in various locations around the world were “real objects.” However, he said NASA needed “better resolved data” to determine what the objects are.
