This is the radio information shared by a U.S. Air Force pilot with an air traffic controller.
According to foreign media such as the New York Post, an Air Force pilot flying 20,000 feet above California on the afternoon of September 17 (local time) last year found a cylindrical unidentified flying object (UFO) the size of a soccer ball and reported it to a nearby control tower.
The veteran pilot who flew the 'Beachcraft 350' model reported to the controller "It sounds strange, but a cylindrical flying object just passed under my wing"
The controller "Isn't the flying object a drone?When asked ," the pilot replied "I'm not sure"
However, experts explained that while some military and hobby drones can reach such high altitudes, these types of drones are rare.
The aircraft disappeared as soon as it was seen and was captured on radar about 40 seconds later, 60 miles (about 96 kilometers) away.
However, it is unclear if it was an object that passed under the wings of the plane.
If it is the same aircraft, it has traveled at a speed of Mach 2 or higher.
One of the air traffic controllers later reported the sightings to the National UFO Center, according to U.S. media News Nation.
Prior to this, there were claims that a cylindrical aircraft was also seen in Texas last year.
Former NASA astronaut Leroy Chiao claimed to have witnessed two cylindrical metal spheres while traveling on a private plane over the Panhandle, Texas, last summer. At the time, he said, the two objects approached about 3 meters below the wings of the plane and disappeared in an instant.
