Now, though, the phenomenon may finally have an answer (at least partially) courtesy of researchers from the universities of California, Arizona and Harvard-Smithsonian.

According to their new study, some of the objects described as foo fighters were most likely plasmas (or ionized gases) which can manifest in various strange ways.Similar phenomena have been witnessed by astronauts on numerous occasions.

"These plasmas are electromagnetic entities that have a variety of shapes and sizes," said study co-author Dr Rudolph Schild of Harvard-Smithsonian.

"They have repeatedly approached spacecraft and the space shuttles and are attracted to electromagnetic activity including thunderstorms."

"Based on video, photographic and computerized analysis, including reports by military officers and astronauts, we believe these plasmas account for at least some of the numerous reports of UFOs and Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon over the last several thousand years including the 'foo fighters' observed by German, Japanese and Allied pilots during WWII."
