Clearly, not enough is known, but there are major ramifications if it turns out that drones or other types of flying objects were entering airspace over the US over the past year undetected, or if they were monitoring Western militaries and capabilities. The unidentified objects are reported to be similar in size to a car and one report described them as “cylindrical.” Not that much is known about UFOs, but more will soon become clear.
