Navy Officer Says Underwater UFOs Are Legitimate Threats. The Evidence Is Hard to Ignore.

Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, PhD, an oceanographer, was one of the first to view footage from the UAP incidents in 2015 involving fighter jets attached to the USS Theodore Roosevelt, which at the time was conducting training exercises off the coast of Florida. Two videos captured by Navy fighter jets that were made public in 2020 show strange craft flying at incredible speeds with no visible means of propulsion, sometimes rotating in midair. “I knew then that what I saw was not our technology. We don’t test experimental aircraft in training ranges—it’s too dangerous—and I had access to everything classified. No nation has craft that can move like that,” he says.

Gallaudet, now retired from the Navy and currently the CEO of Ocean STL Consulting, is pushing for the U.S. government to treat these phenomena as a “national research priority.” Despite some public disclosures, many records remain classified, buried within defense contractor vaults or shielded by national security exemptions. If even part of what’s been reported is true, then the encounters off Virginia, California, and elsewhere could be the opening chapter in a much deeper mystery—one that spans oceans, navies, and continents.

This spring, Graves and Gallaudet briefed officials in Washington, D.C., on unidentified submerged objects. “We’re at a unique moment in history,” Graves says. “People have access to tools that can reveal things. The momentum is building.”

That momentum has already begun reshaping policy. In 2023, Congress passed the UAP Disclosure Act, legislation requiring federal agencies to collect, catalog, and disclose records related to recovered nonhuman craft and biologics. For the first time, U.S. law openly acknowledged the potential existence of off-world or nonhuman intelligence, and even hinted at craft retrieval and reverse engineering programs.

They may not be, but it is still a crazy level of technology to remain undetected underwater and zipping around

According to the legend, a young woman aged between 18 and 20 arrived aboard the "hollow boat" on February 22, 1803. Fishermen brought her inland, but she was unable to communicate in Japanese. The fishermen returned her and her vessel to the sea, and it drifted away.

"In November 2004, several U.S. Navy pilots assigned to the USS Nimitz encountered a Tic Tac–shaped UAP darting and dashing over the Pacific. According to reports that followed, the object lacked visible control surfaces and heat signatures that would be typical of jet aircraft or rockets. It never made a sonic boom, although it appeared to be traveling faster than the speed of sound."

Sounds like the description of sunlight glinting off water.

A couple of years ago, there was a whistleblower who posted on 4chan (a site where you can post anonymously).

He said that he used to work on a UFO crash retrieval team and was posting online because he had liver cancer and wouldn't be around much longer anyway.

He described a massive underwater mobile construction facility of unknown origin that can produce smaller craft that are built to spec based on what their mission is. These drone craft come out of the ocean and fly off. He claimed that the government knows where in the ocean it is, but when they have tried to get close to it, things don't go well.

Here's a video that was released last year that covers the story (you can skip ahead to 16 minutes into the video if you're not interested in the first part where he talks about the NRO).

What are you going to doabout vehicles that can stand the forces of interstellar travel?

Based on our primitive knowledge of physics and the universe, such travel is an impossibility.

But keep in mind, 122 years ago when the Wright Brothers flew the first plane at Kitty Hawk, sending a rocket to the moon was also unheard of and an impossibility.

If there is another race somewhere in the universe, it's reasonable to expect that they could be thousands of years more advanced than us and have redefined all the known laws of engineering and physics.
