The Most Compelling UFO Encounter


The 2004 USS Nimitz "Tic Tac" UFO Encounter

27 May 2026: I will be moving this page to the AI Said... section soon. It's an interesting case but alone, in a sea of nebulous reports... it is not enough.

I thought AI-assisted research might help me find something new or reignite an interest - but it's still the same ghost stories. I think most of us have reached the point where we need direct contact and won't settle for anything else.

I, for one, will welcome our new Alien Overlords when they choose to arrive. If they were so inclined, any generous offer "to serve man" would be amazing;-)


Location:

Off the coast of San Diego, California. November 14, 2004 is the main event. The tracking of anomalous aerial vehicles occurred during Nov 10 - Nov 13.

Who Was Involved:

  • U.S. Navy personnel aboard the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier and the USS Princeton guided missile cruiser.

  • Multiple highly trained fighter pilots, including Commander David Fravor and Lt. Cmdr. Alex Dietrich.

  • Radar operators, techs and eyewitnesses.

  • The case was later confirmed in declassified Pentagon footage (released in 2017 and acknowledged as authentic by the U.S. Navy in 2020).

What Happened:

  • The Navy's radar systems on the Princeton detected multiple unidentified flying objects appearing suddenly at 80,000 feet, then dropping to near sea level in under a second - something no known aircraft can do.

  • Fighter pilots were scrambled to intercept.

  • Commander Fravor described seeing a white, 40-foot-long "Tic Tac" shaped object hovering above the ocean.

  • The object had no visible wings, rotors or exhaust - but it maneuvered rapidly, reacting to the pilots' movements in ways that defied known physics.

  • It vanished in an instant, only to reappear seconds later at the pilot's next rendezvous point - as if it anticipated them.

Why It's So Credible:

  • Multiple eyewitnesses, all military professionals.

  • Multiple sensor types confirmed the object - radar, infrared, visual.

  • No known technology (even in 2025, 21 years later) can move like that, with that speed and acceleration.

  • No evidence of hoax, drugs or technical malfunction.

  • The footage is publicly available and was officially released by the Department of Defense.

But Was It Aliens?

The military calls it a UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon) - not "alien", just unknown.

Me? I'm not saying it was aliens...
