What began with a couple admiring a beautiful rainbow in the US skies soon turned into one of the most talked-about mysteries on social media. A couple in Alaska
was enjoying the colourful spectacle when they spotted a strange, “jellyfish-shaped” object flying across the sky. As soon as the video was shared online, the mysterious object was quickly labelled a possible “UFO”. The clip shows the object moving across the sky. According to the couple, they spotted it over a forest near a US Air Force base in Alaska. The incident was recorded by Sara Jane Osborn, who claimed that the object appeared out of nowhere, hovered for a while and then vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared. Osborn told the Daily Mail that she believed the sighting took place near Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER). The encounter reportedly occurred on June 15 at around 10:13 PM. The video soon went viral, drawing a flurry of reactions on social media. Times Now could not independently verify the details or the authenticity of the post.

Internet’s reactions:
“It is sad that an ordinary kite can generate conspiracies about extraterrestrials and government coverups,” a user said. “What are the chances that the government is not working with tech and UFOs that look like kites, so that they can dismiss UFO theories by simply saying that it was a kite,” added another person.
“Do we gotta keep paying these bills or nah? Are aliens going to come and invade us or will they better everything for us? What should we do?” asked the next. “So that’s where my helium balloon ended up,” joked the next.
