Just recently, a video of US President Joe Biden emerged which seemed to confirm that these objects were indeed extraterrestrial in nature. The clip, which showed Biden giving an official statement from a podium (presumably in the White House), quickly went on to attract a lot of attention on social media.

"I am here today to inform you that a number of unidentified flying objects have appeared over many parts of our country," he said. "Though their exact origin remains to be fully determined, the FBI has informed me that it is very likely that these are visitors of extraterrestrial nature."

As it turns out, however, the video is in fact a total forgery.For one thing, the statement itself never came from the White House. Secondly, it appears as though the footage has been doctored - possibly using AI to manipulate the image and audio.

It's the latest in a long line of "deep fake" videos which show a real person saying or doing something that they never actually said or did in real life.

It demonstrates, once again, how easy it is for footage of politicians and other public figures to be manipulated - making it harder than ever to tell what is real and what is not.
