Florida Residents Baffled by Strange Clouds, NASA Steps in to Debunk UFO Theories..!

NASA has identified a series of "eerie" clouds associated with UFO sightings over Florida, leaving locals puzzled.

The peculiar clouds resembling jellyfish or UFOs were observed just northwest of the Florida Keys. A group of men fishing off Key West in January were taken aback when they filmed the strange clouds.

This comes after Earth saw yet another close call as NASA captured another asteroid nearing hitting the planet before spotting a cosmic 'flame-throwing guitar'.


One of the men shared the video on TikTok, panning the camera towards the sky and zooming in on the circular shapes, exclaiming: "Bro look at these clouds, what is going on? What is that?"

"It's like a missing puzzle piece of something," another voice can say as they point to a large round hole in one cloud. The video was set to eerie music from Netflix's popular sci-fi show Stranger Things.

However, scientists have now clarified what these clouds are. NASA's Terra satellite also captured an image of the "Cavum clouds" from above in late January.


The US Space Agency shared a photo this week, highlighting that unusual clouds sometimes lead people to mistakenly believe they've spotted a UFO.

For nearly 70 years, scientists were uncertain about the cause of Cavum clouds, which are also known as "hole-punch clouds" or "fallstreak holes."

However, in 2010, weather experts finally solved this mystery. They discovered that these peculiar shapes form when planes fly through "altocumulus clouds."

Researchers at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) have unlocked the secrets behind the rare Cavum clouds.

These small, patchy clouds form at mid-level altitudes, between 7,000 and 23,000 feet above the ground, and consist of highly pure water vapor that has been "supercooled" to approximately -15°C, remaining in a liquid state despite the low temperature.

Scientists have found that the unique conditions required for Cavum clouds to form are disrupted when an airplane flies through them.

By analyzing data from aircraft flights, satellite observations, and weather models, they discovered that the movement of the plane's wings or propellers alters the air pressure around the water droplets.

This change causes the droplets to undergo "adiabatic expansion," which disrupts the delicate balance that keeps them in a liquid state.

A striking example of this phenomenon was captured by NASA's Earth Observatory on January 30, 2024, off the coast of the Florida Keys, and it was featured as their Image of the Day.
