True, many people have seen flying objects that have been unidentified. I've seen one myself...still have no idea what it was. Do I think it was martians? Probably not.

I think the fact that there are so many reports of objects flying around that are not identified by the observer automatically means there are UFOs. However, the fact that they are unidentified, does not mean they are alien. It probably only means that the observer was not able to figure out what it was due to angle, distance, light, and lots of other factors. I doubt they are due to visitors from afar, which does not mean I don't believe life can exist elsewhere, only that I don't think they have visited us. Why travel all that distance and hide, especially if you are obviously way technologically superior to the beings on this planet who have barely explored their galaxy.

True... anything in the sky that I cannot identify is a UFO to me (unidentified flying object).
If you are asking: are there UFO's in the sky that did not originate from Earth, the answer in my opinion is no.

“U F O”s” are unquestionably seen regularly all over the earth, every day!
Why, yesterday I saw what I thought was a Cessna Skyhawk and I’ll damned if it wasn’t a Cessna Skylane.
Therefore, the Object was Un-identified and it was definitely …Flying. Hence, UFO!~
We can be sure that each and every sighting of a “UFO” by anyone is really an object that can be identified should the person who does the sighting have enough knowledge to identify it.

Many people have claimed to have seen a UFO. It's true, especially if you look at the term "UFO" Simply put, any object you see flying that you don't recognize is a UFO. Have people seen spaceships carrying aliens. Debatable! Possible but not probable.

Of course, unidentified objects have been seen by persons on earth. Whether any of the unidentified objects involve living beings from outer space is an entirely different question.

Because UFO stands for unidentified flying object and most of us have seen many.

Many objects passing through the air can't be identified. A small piece of plactic blowing in the wind, in dim light will appear as as a very large object traveling at a great speed.
Birds, paper, plastic, airplanes, toy balloons, weather balloons, gliders, cloud formations, ground lights reflected off clouds, and just about everything else that you can think of have been reported as UFOs.
There is no evidence, not the tinyest, that anything from outer space has been identified.
That's Star War, Flash Gorden, fantasy.

TRUE!
A UFO is an unidentified flying object. That means if you see something that is flying and don't know what it is, it's a UFO. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's a bunch of martians flying around.

True -- not necessarily extra-terrestrial, but unidentified flying objects nonetheless.
If referring to the extra-terrestrial type, then false. The nearest star is 4.3 light years from Earth. It would take over 100,000 years to get here from there traveling at 25,000 MPH, and there isn't even a planet orbiting that star (Alpha Centauri).
