L B I see "open minds" in many places.
I would like to see, perhaps, some more "enquiring minds"
Interestingly some misinterpreted meteorological phenomena have come to greater light in structured "UAP" analyses, including vertical "beams" of light in the extreme latitudes due to atmospheric refraction anomalies, as well of others such as the famous "sprites " (lightning type flashes going upwards, away from the ground ).
By critically examining the unknown ,information is often garnered into the known , as ever,in scientific rigour.
With all respect for your qualified opinion as ever.,
