Peculiar light in the sky, in brief

I believe the answer is:

ufo

(Other definitions for ufo that I've seen before include "Potential alien craft" , "ET's vehicle?" , "Odd object in the sky" , "Saucer in the sky?" , "Strange sighting in the sky, in short" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
