Amateur plane trackers shared online footage of a UFO hovering over Air Force One during President Biden's fundraising trip to Los Angeles earlier this month. The video, recorded from a live stream of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) by two brothers depicts a mysterious balloon-like object appearing to hover over Air Force One during Biden's December 10 trip.

“A few viewers are saying we saw a UFO,” one of the brothers says in a clip shared to their YouTube channel, L.A. Flights. While filming at LAX with two F-35 fighter jets monitoring the skies for the President, the brothers excitedly observed mid-air refueling of the jets before a shiny white or silver object swiftly darted across the sky.

The object first appeared on-screen at 10:18 a.m., prompting Joshua to ask his brother, "Did you see that? We've got something flying in the way."

“I’m not too sure what it was,” he added.

The object is seen two more times in the video, with the final sighting occurring at 11:08 a.m.

Mick West, a UFO investigator, examined the footage and informed Daily Mail that the object was likely a balloon that seemed to be in motion because of the plane in the background.

“It looks like a balloon and moves like a balloon,” said West.

Over the past year, the Pentagon has probed nearly 300 UFO sightings, with concerns that some might be the products of foreign governments attempting to spy on the US, as officials disclosed earlier this year.

Earlier this year, NASA appointed its inaugural director for UFOs, acknowledging its ongoing uncertainty about the nature of several unexplained flying objects observed in US skies. The agency reiterated its commitment to studying these phenomena.
