Quote:]David Spergel, chair of Nasa's UAP team, mentioned a burst of radio waves picked up by researchers in Australia. "They had really strange structure. People couldn't figure out what was going on. Then they start to notice a lot of them bunched together around lunch time," he said. It turned out that the sensitive instruments used by researchers were picking up signals from a microwave used to heat up their lunches. Scott Kelly, a former astronaut and pilot with decades of experience, told a story about an optical illusion.

He and his co-pilot were flying near Virginia Beach and his colleague "was convinced we flew by a UFO". "I didn't see it. We turned around, we went to look at it, it turns out it was Bart Simpson - a balloon."
