A Navy sailor, whose family has ties to Area 51, has shared unsettling details of an encounter with four mysterious UFOs emerging from the Pacific Ocean.
Senior Chief Operations Specialist Alexandro Wiggins, a 23-year Navy veteran, was present aboard the USS Jackson during the sighting on February 15, 2023.
He witnessed the puzzling spectacle of four objects rising from the ocean and then departing in a coordinated manner off the coast of southern California.
Speaking with 8newsnow, the radar specialist contended that he still remains dubious and wonders if the truth about it will ever be revealed about what he saw.
He said: ‘To my surprise, which is something I’ve never witnessed, was a light I noticed on the horizon, it looked as if it were surfacing out of the water and going up.’
Not believing what he was seeing, he took a look at the shapes through a thermal sensor, which showed not just one but two tic-tac shaped objects in the sky.
‘We only saw the one, and then we see the second one. I was only when we zoom out that we realize there’s two more out here, a total of four’, he added.
Wiggins – who is speaking out to help investigators piece together the mystery – said that while he was watching the tic tacs in awe, they suddenly took off ‘to the north east, all at the same time.’
Most shocking to Wiggins was the speed of the lights in the sky. He said: ‘If I had to talk speed, it was two steps behind instantaneous.’
While maintaining skepticism about what he saw from the ship in 2023, Wiggins hoped that ‘one day I’ll know what that was, and I’ll be like 80 or 90 years old.
‘And it’ll be normalized like the stealth fighter or Area 51. At some point, it’ll be public, but then I’ll be old.’
Wiggins, a Las Vegas native, also said that his father had worked at Area 51, the highly classified Air Force base that is frequently linked with UFO theories and folklore.
The shape of the UFOs appeared strikingly similar to a 2004 sighting of a ‘tic tac shaped’ UFO in the same waters, which was previously investigated by a top secret government program.
The never-before-seen video was obtained by journalist George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell, co-hosts of the Weaponized Podcast, who revealed it to the public earlier this month.
Knapp and co-host Jeremy Corbell spoke to personnel onboard who said they watched as four Tic Tac-shaped UFOs that emerged from the ocean in a military-controlled area known as Warning Area 291.
Corbell noted that this is the same area of the Pacific where other Navy sailors have reported seeing strange, unidentified craft over the years – including the now-infamous 2004 Tic Tac sighting by the USS Nimitz.
A combat information center (CIC) operator on board the Jackson who witnessed the incident spoke with the podcast, saying that seeing a UFO over the Pacific isn’t really shocking for Navy personnel, but seeing a whole formation take off out of the water was jarring.
‘All in synchronous, jetting into the abyss. All four, all timed together and all left. And we were like holy s**t,” the anonymous CIC operator told the Weaponized podcast.
‘The second they left, maybe three, four seconds pass, I run to my station and I look at my radar, they’re all off radar. That’s it, they all zoomed off,” the sailor continued.
‘But it’s clear that they’re in communication with one another and synchronized like three, two, one countdown. Let’s all go.
‘I think unless there’s some level of like one entity controlling all four and then they all leave at the same time.’
Shockingly, none of the craft seen in the Safire images was producing any kind of heat trail as they were moving through the air – meaning they were using a totally unknown form of propulsion.
Corbell added that even if the UFOs were just hovering over the Pacific, the Safire camera should have been able to see some kind of heat from an engine – but there was nothing.
Former defense department analyst Marik Von Rennenkampff analyzed flight data from the time and location of the sighting and concluded there were no US aircraft in the area.
‘I don’t think it’s ours. I suspect there are better places for us to showcase that kind of equipment to unwitting sailors. That just doesn’t make sense,’ Von Rennenkampff said.
The incident echoes the infamous, ‘Nimitz incident’ two decades prior, when Navy pilots saw two UFOs flying at incredible speeds in the same area.
At least four pilots encountered the mysterious object as it flew at speed over the Pacific near Mexico on November 14, 2004.
Top Gun fighter pilot David Fravor was flying a training exercise off the coast of San Diego when he was re-routed to investigate a strange object spotted on radar by warships protecting his aircraft carrier, the Nimitz.
He found a roughly 40ft white object with no windows or wings, shaped like a Tic-Tac, flitting about above the sea that was roiling below it, disturbed by something large submerged beneath the surface.
Commander Fravor told Congress in 2023 that as he circled the object, it turned to mirror his movements, then shot off past him at thousands of miles per hour, somehow stopping a second later at a secret pre-designated rendezvous point 60 miles away, that only he and a handful of Navy staff on his ship were given ahead of their training exercise.
Fellow F-18 pilot Lieutenant Chad Underwood then flew out and caught the object on video – footage that was published by the New York Times in 2017, igniting a firestorm of intrigue about the government’s knowledge of UFOs.
The way it moved has led to speculation that it was a UFO and it has become a key piece of evidence for those who believe in extraterrestrials.
