Some UFO videos released by the Pentagon on Monday have resulted in quite a reaction online.

Chris Rutkowski is a science writer in Manitoba that specializes in strange things like UFO’s. He’s not surprised the videos taken by the United States Navy have garnered so much attention.

“The fact that it’s attracting so much attention shows that people really want to know. We’ve always wondered if we’re alone in the universe.”

Chris explains these videos have actually been circulating the internet for quite some time. The three videos were originally taken between 2004 and 2015. The Pentagon explains it officially released the footage to “clear up any misconceptions as to whether or not the footage that has been circulating is real.”

Chris thinks it’s actually led to a lot more questions than answers.

“What we have are these videos that are very interesting; by themselves, they don’t seem to suggest aliens. But they seem to zip around in ways that people can’t really ascribe to an aircraft. The question is: are we looking at something out of this world, or something that’s just a little bit strange?”
