Let's also throw this into the equation. Astronauts of the 50's and early 60's were experiencing environments somewhat new to humans. Super and hypersonic ascent and re-entry speeds play all sorts of atmospheric ionisation tricks at these speeds and altitudes. Liquids do some pretty funky things in zero-g, super cold environments too. Remember Glenn's "pretty fireflies"?
"Unidentified" means just that. I can't seem to recall any astronaut talking about funny green men - and none would. Their place in the programme depends on their level-headedness.
