Ryan Graves is a former United States Navy pilot who has asked Congress to investigate unidentified aeronautical phenomena (UAP) in the sky above the United States. He shared his first-hand experience in an interview with Fox News.

Graves, who was a flight instructor, spent approximately 11 years in the Navy flying F-18s. He and his fellow members of the squadron haven’t received an answer to their questions about a phenomenon they experienced flying.

Graves described his experience by stating that the objects appeared as “contacts on our radar” Until the end “we were seeing these with our eyeballs.”

“While I was in the Navy, myself and others in my squadron had an experience that continues to this day and at first was something that we didn’t have a name for,” Graves said. “Two aircraft from my squadron were flying side by side and one of these objects went right between their aircraft.”

He continued to state that the object was described by his squad members as a “strange object”. “dark gray or black cube inside of a clear sphere.” He stated that the object was strangely stationary at times, but did not behave as such. “tethered balloons” Because they can move at very high speeds.

“Eventually we would see these objects proceeding about 0.6 to 0.8 Mach on average, which is about 250 to 350 knots at those altitudes,” He elaborated. “And they would be either in some type of holding pattern or seemingly just proceeding in a single direction.”

Graves stated that Americans with preconceived notions of UAPs should approach the topic with an open mind. “first principles” approach.

“We need to be able to agnostically, as a media, accept that there is uncertainty and look at it from a first principles approach,” He stated. “Because if we wrap it into all that context about little green men, we’re going to be barking up the wrong tree.”

He offered two possibilities for explaining the objects.

“It’s either going to be some type of adversarial platform, and it’s a matter for national security, or we don’t know what it is,” He stated. “And it’s a matter for scientific inquiry and curiosity. We’ve been stymied to not have that scientific curiosity as of late, but that’s the biggest thing that needs to change and is changing right now.”

“For our military and our national security, our ability to know what’s over our heads is of critical importance. And if we don’t know what it is, we need to be curious about it. Because we may have national security issues fall out of that anomalous bucket,” Graves continued to work. “Once we start looking a little bit more closely into our airspace some things are going to pop out that [we] weren’t expecting to see.”

According to the former Navy pilot, media coverage about these incidents is still inadequate. “leaves a lot to be desired.”

Senator Marco Rubio (R.Fla.), along with other government officials, acknowledged the unexplained incidents as well as the potential threats they pose to national security.

“Advanced objects demonstrating advanced technology are routinely flying over our restricted or sensitive airspace posing a risk to both flight safety & national security,” Rubio tweeted this February

Graves explained that many pilots have experienced similar experiences, but that they don’t have a safe place to share their stories. He also encouraged government agencies to start “sharing their information and offering it forward.”

“I’ve talked to a lot of pilots who have had some pretty powerful experiences that have really shaken them. They don’t want to go and share that on what you would loosely consider your talking head media set up,” He stated. “They just don’t feel safe still doing it.”

Graves’ February article about his experiences with UAPs within the military caused shockwaves across the internet and media.

“These were no mere balloons. The unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) accelerated at speeds up to Mach 1, the speed of sound. They could hold their position, appearing motionless, despite Category 4 hurricane-force winds of 120 knots. They did not have any visible means of lift, control surfaces or propulsion — in other words nothing that resembled normal aircraft with wings, flaps or engines,” He wrote. “I am a formally trained engineer, but the technology they demonstrated defied my understanding.”
