Not really - strange things that are poorly documented are often hard to explain. The things that are well recorded and documented all get explained rather quickly.

  Hessdalen lights yes but they, like UAPs, have flaps. Now they are very rare so it's hard to study when they are seen so rarely but there has been a team doing it for many decades now. Ball lightning is also very rare. So I think the commenter was talking about everyday things that happen with fair regularity, but not to put words in their mouth. Edit: However, I will say that "explained" in the commenters case does not necessarily mean "explained correctly." Mick West with his Seagull theory for example -- he had the singular video and "explained" the video with an example that fits into our worldview, while the military still has the RADAR, multiple sources of video, and unedited (downconverted) HQ footage and sensor data which would likely monkey wrench his seagull theory very badly.

  The analysis identified hydrogen, oxygen and other elements including titanium.[9] It was thought this occurs in Hessdalen because of the large deposits of scandium there. The publication of this research led to the Norwegian press proclaiming that "The Mystery in Hessdalen is Solved". I guess it depends on who you ask. Anyone can choose to ignore solid evidence supporting a hypothesis. Just ask a 'flat-earther' if the earther is a sphere.
