Pentagon solves 1 UFO mystery but still probing cases of "large orange orb," "large metallic cylinder"

The Pentagon office investigating UFOs, or what the government calls unidentified anomalous phenomena, resolved one of its most prominent cases — nicknamed "GOFAST" — its director told Congress in a hearing on Tuesday. (It's the last one listed on the office's website here).

The GOFAST video was made public in 2017 and shows what appears to be an object flying at a high speed just above water, but Dr. Jon Kosloski, the director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, told Congress the object depicted is not actually too unusual.  

"Through a very careful geospatial intelligence analysis and using trigonometry, we assess with high confidence that the object is not actually close to the water, but is rather closer to 13,000 feet," Kosloski said.
