Aerospace entrepreneur Robert Bigelow made a cryptic announcement in September 2008 in a radio interview with George Knapp. Bigelow revealed that he had just created BAASS, a subsidiary of Bigelow Aerospace, and that BAASS had entered into a partnership with an unnamed entity to study the UFO mystery and related phenomena.
The public didn't know it at the time, but one week earlier, Bigelow had signed a contract with the Defense Intelligence Agency to carry out an investigation under the umbrella of AAWSAP, the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application Program. -mysterywire.com
It has become one of the most intriguing encounters of modern day UFO research.
On November 14, 2004, about 100 miles off the coast of San Diego, California, the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group was conducting a training exercise.
Multiple U.S. Navy pilots, along with numerous Navy personnel onboard the USS Princeton, witnessed the event. And to this day – it all remains unexplained.
In 2007, a video of one of the unidentified objects was leaked onto the internet. Originally captured with an infrared camera on-board one of the F/A-18 Super Hornets involved in the incident, The Black Vault made international headlines when it was able to get the U.S. Navy to finally admit – they have no idea what that object is. They consider it something they call – unidentified aerial phenomena or a UAP.
My guest today, is retired police Lt. Tim McMillan. He works tirelessly as an investigative journalist, having written for Popular Mechanics, Vice News, The Drive’s WarZone, and others. He has dug deep into the 2004 Nimitz Encounters by speaking directly with nearly every witness that has come forward; and having just completed a popular news piece that garnered worldwide attention, he is here to share his findings about the case.
Stay tuned… you’re about to take a journey inside The Black Vault.
Over the past 18 months, we have seen a powerful change in how UFOs are being treated by the establishment media. There appears to be a crescendo of UFO news lately, much of which concerns the U.S. Navy, but all of which are making powerful waves in our society. And now, on May 26, 2019, the New York Times (once again) published an article suggesting the reality of UFOs.
This coincides with the release on Youtube of a well produced documentary on the Nimitz Encounters, and with the upcoming series on the History Channel concerning UFOs. All of this seems connected somehow with TTSA. There is no question that the presentation of this information is powerful.
Richard and Tracey sit down to discuss the import of the New York Times article, the Nimitz documentary, and the general drift toward (dare we say it?) disclosure.
Richard Dolan is one of the world’s leading researchers and writers on the subject of UFOs and believes that they constitute the greatest mystery of our time.
He is the author of two volumes of history, UFOs and the National Security State, both ground-breaking works which together provide the most factually complete and accessible narrative of the UFO subject available anywhere. He also co-authored a speculative book about the future, A.D. After Disclosure, the first-ever analysis not only of how UFO secrecy might end, but of the all-important question: what happens next? -richarddolanpress.com
HISTORY unveils new video footage from its six-part nonfiction series “Unidentified: Inside America’s UFO Investigation”of Navy pilots Lt. Ryan Graves and Lt. Danny Aucoin who have reported their multiple sightings of unexplained flying objects to the Pentagon and Congress from the summer of 2014 to March 2015 off the East coast. They have recently told their story exclusively to HISTORY and The New York Times.
CLIP 1 – Former Navy pilot Lt. Ryan Graves recalls his experience encountering UFOs while on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.
CLIP 2 – Former Navy pilot Lt. Ryan Graves and Navy pilot Lt. Danny Aucoin discuss their experiences encountering UFOs while on active duty with the Navy.
CLIP 3 – Former Navy pilot Lt. Ryan Graves makes the shocking claim that multiple unidentified crafts appeared in the Middle East over the Arabian Gulf, while the carrier strike group was launching air strikes in Syria.
Commander David Fravor is a badass Top Gun fighter pilot, and in 2004, the Cmdr. Officer of VFA-41 - the Black Aces. On November 14th of that year began a typical Sunday for Cmdr. Fravor. About 100 miles S/W off the coast of San Diego, it was 70 Degrees and clear skies and an average wind speed of 3 mph. But this wasn’t a typical day. Not at all.
The Nimitz Carrier Strike Group was preparing for deployment to the Arabian Sea, with routine pre-deployment workups. Starting on November 10th the USS Princeton had been detecting multiple AAVs (Anomalous Aerospace Vehicles… UFOs), operating in and around the vicinity of the Strike Group. The vehicles of unknown origin and function were tracked on radar, with returns descending from far above the radar’s scan volume - somewhere higher than 80,000 ft. The targets would drop from above 80,000 ft to hover roughly 50 ft above the water in a matter of seconds. An impossibly fast rate of decent. And from what I’ve been told, at ICBM trajectories.
On the 14th, Cmdr. Fravor launched with his WSO (Weapons & Sensors Officer), into the clear blue sky. Their Call Sign was FASTEAGLE 01. Cmdr. Fravor was flying a F/A-18F Super Hornet when he received vectors to an unknown contact. A controller on the USS Princeton with the call sign “POISEN” asked, “What ordnance do you have on board?”. This was an odd request, due to the fact Cmdr. Fravor was NOT in an active combat area, a hot-zone. He replied that he had no live ordnance. This was real-world tasking.
He then preceded to the location of the contact, located it visually… and went after it. The Anomalous Aerospace Vehicle outmaneuvered anything imaginable by modern / advanced human technology. The craft of undetermined origin and unknown operators… displayed flight characteristics far beyond current propulsion technology known to man or even understood within current physics. This event has become one of the best documented UFO close encounter cases in history.
I’ve been working on this case for a long time, years before it became the tip of the spear about government confirmation or acknowledgment of UFOs. Before this case was publicly known, I was hunting for the truth and establishing dialogue with the key witnesses involved… most of which I have never spoken about publicly. Cmdr. David Fravor is included in that. Over that time we have developed a rapport, and this interview is an important aspect of my efforts to find detailed clarity on this case… extinguishing the noise and raising the signal.
Cmdr. Fravor IS the primary witness to this astonishing UFO event series. Over the years, I have come to understand and appreciate his integrity, professionalism, humor and candor. We should listen to what Cmdr. Fravor has to say, as his testimony has become part of the fabric of our time. Cmdr. Fravor is the real deal; and that’s just something you’re gonna have to come to terms with.
