I am not sure how frequent this confusion is, but Venus is brighter than any other planet or star, and can easily be seen in the daylight.

Venus.
Venus! Durr!
Because Mars is very bright, and it is often mistaken for a UFO.
The most common misidentification for a UFO is the planet Venus.
The largest thing ever misidentified as a UFO, is the planet Jupiter. It and Venus are the two planets most likely to be mistaken as a UFO. Venus is seen more often (President Carter saw Venus as a UFO) because it is so bright.
Venus is usually the planet that is most thought to be a UFO, but all planets visible without a telescope or binoculars can be mistaken for UFOs.
Venus. It is bright red and quite visible in the night sky (usually somewhere in an Easterly direction).
i do not believe this..i think its just imaginary things..there is no aliens and UFO..and there are no solid proves of there presence...
There are approximately 600 reports of UFO's world-wide annually.
Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, all of these are Bright Planets that are visible to the naked eye in the right situations of lighting, clarity of the sky etc. I once and only once saw Saturn through 7x35 Binoculars through an apartment window- it was quite impressive with the rings. Of course any experienced star gazer would see these objects as Planets and not moving vehicles!
That would be impossible to say. There are more UFOs that are mistaken identity than actually faked.
