Newly released government UFO files describe a 2023 incident in which witnesses reported a larger 'mother orb' in the sky that appeared to release smaller objects. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb stated that the incident remains unexplained despite an official review. The documents include a letter from the director of the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), detailing a two-day period in October 2023 when law enforcement officials observed orbs behaving in ways that could not be fully explained. Loeb highlighted the situation as a potential national security concern, suggesting that if these objects are human-made, they could be produced by adversarial nations. He noted that approximately 40% of unidentified anomalous phenomena cases reported by the AARO remain unresolved. Loeb called for increased research and funding to study these occurrences, emphasizing the need for intelligence on the subject. He also mentioned that if investigations do not yield an earthly explanation, other possibilities, including extraterrestrial origins, may need to be considered.
