Two aircraft reported a "vivid green UFO" crossing the clouds above Canada.

Late July 30th, pilots from two separate aircraft - one military and one commercial — reported seeing a mysterious green UFO disappear into the clouds over the Gulf of St. Lawrence on Canada's Atlantic coast, Vice News.

According to a report published August 11 in the Canadian government's aviation incident database, Both flights witnessed a "bright green flying object" which "crashed in a cloud and then disappeared". One of the planes that reported the observation was a Canadian military aircraft from a base in Ontario to Cologne, Germany.

The flight was a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines aircraft from Boston to Amsterdam. This passenger flight was a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines aircraft from Boston to Amsterdam. Steffan Watkins, an aviation and shipping researcher, looked at transponder data from the two flights and saw that the military plane climbed 1,000 feet (300 meters) in altitude at the time of the sighting — possibly to avoid the object or get a closer look at it, Watkins tweeted.

There's a chance the UFO could have been a meteorite streaming through the sky.

"Yes, I know [UFO observation] would have been in the early stage of the Perseid meteorite rain," Watkins added, "but don't be a killjoy. " (The Canadian Air Force report labeled the incident with the catchall tag "weather balloon, meteorite, rocket, UFO", which does not preclude a rock in space being the possible culprit.

Unlike the United States Department of Defense, the Canadian Department of National Defense does not follow UFO sightings, a spokesman for the department told Vice. Still, there is no shortage of civilian enthusiasts north of the border; in December 2019, a private collector donated more than 30,000 UFO-related documents to the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg — including scores of documents on the Falcon Lake incident, Canada's most infamous UFO case, Live Science previously reported.

In the meantime, in June 2021, the Pentagon released a long-awaited report of over 140 UFO sightings documented by US Navy pilots. The report concluded that "most of the UAP [unidentified aerial phenomena] reported probably do represent physical objects," though there is no evidence that alien visitors are behind any of the incidents.

Of course, it's only the nine-page unclassified version of the report. According to the Guardian, some of the "juiciest details" of the report are hidden in a classified schedule, which the public will never see.
