Keep what? We have a small visual anomaly at the edge of the atmosphere.
We don't actually *know* anything, and the atmo does some weird stuff at times for reasons we're not sure of. Sometimes it's stuff having to do with the cameras, sometimes it's stuff with the air. There's phenomena we used to think were made up but have gradually begun to understand, but only decades after they were first seen. Ball lightning, rogue waves, that kind of stuff.
Remember, one of the big things that set off the UFO craze was the government publicly releasing their big book of things they've seen but don't know what it is.
It's not like they could tell you any more- or that anyone could. It's just, a weird visual thing that unless it occurs again, possibly a lot, is a question mark.
