You might be surprised at just how often Venus is mistaken for a UFO. I have taken many such reports and positively identified Venus as the culprit. Likewise, reflected light, gas or oil flares, lenticular clouds and weather balloons are commonly mistaken as an unidentified flying object. And once, a meteorite. The reports become a bit dreary after a while.
