Biden fuels UFO interest after Obama acknowledged footage
President Joe Biden referred a question about unidentified flying objects back to former President Barack Obama after he was asked about his old boss's recent acknowledgment of the aerial phenomena.
"I would ask him again," Biden told Fox News White House reporter Peter Doocy during his joint press conference with South Korea President Moon Jae-in on Friday.
Obama was asked about video and images of unidentified objects taken by U.S. Navy and Air Force pilots or via satellites in an interview this week with CBS's The Late Late Show with James Corden.
"What is true, and I'm actually being serious here, is that there is footage and records of objects in the skies that we don't know exactly what they are," Obama said.
"We can't explain how they move, their trajectory," he added. "They did not have an easily explainable pattern. And so, I think that people still take seriously, trying to investigate and figure out what that is."
Obama's remarks are the latest federal government acknowledgment of the aerial phenomena after former President Donald Trump's Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe spoke about it with Fox News's Maria Bartiromo in March.
