Mandatory XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1235/

It's interesting that the proliferation of cell phone cameras has not improved the quality of UFO reports much.

Nor has the availability of automatic UFO-spotting cameras.[1] They pick up drones, flocks of birds, and the International Space Station. But no good UFO shots.

LINEAR and GEODSS, which find near-earth objects and satellites using a pair of large telescopes at each site, have been running for decades, somehow don't seem to be picking up UFOs.
