A Florida congressman revealed he has seen an image of ‘an orb’ hanging over the skies of the Gulf of Mexico, and he said it was ‘not of any human capability.’
Representative Matt Gaetz made the shocking revelation Wednesday during a House Oversight Committee hearing related to UAPs that heard first-hand accounts from military veterans after they swore under oath.
Gaetz told the panel that he saw an image of a UAP and spoke to pilots who snapped the photo while he and other representatives visited the Eglin Air Force Base in Florida
‘They saw a sequence of four craft, in a clear diamond formation, for which there is a radar sequence that I, and I alone have observed in the United States Congress,’ he said during the first-of-its-kind hearing Wednesday.
‘One of the pilots goes to check out that diamond formation and sees a large, floating, what I can only describe as an orb. Again, like I said, not of any human capability that I’m aware of.’

House lawmakers held the hearing to pressure the executive branch to release more information about unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) or UFOs, as Burchett prefers.
The main witnesses were David Grusch, a former high-ranking intelligence official, Ryan Graves, an esteemed former pilot, and Navy veteran fighter pilot Commander David Fravor, who witnessed the 2004 ‘Tic Tac’ UFO.
The three men sworn in at the start of the hearing revealed bombshell after bombshell, but Gaetz also shared a story of an incident a few months ago.
He and Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett visited the Florida Air Base but were initially met with obstacles when they attempted to look into the information.
‘We were not afforded access to all of the flight crew and, initially, we were not afforded access to images and to radar,’ Gaetz said during the hearing.
‘Thereafter, we had a bit of a discussion about how authorities [work] in the United States of America and we did meet with one of the flight crew who took the image.’
He continued to explain the image as lawmakers listened in their seats.
‘The image was of something that I am not able to attach to any human capability, either from the United States or our adversaries,’ said Gaetz, who reminded the room that he has served on the arms service committee for seven years and the committee that oversees technologies with DARPA.
According to Gaetz, the pilot encountered a fleet of UAPs in diamond formation over the Gulf of Mexico during a flight test designed in open air space.

The pilot flew closer to the formation and spotted the orb floating in the center.
‘When he approached, he said his radar went down and he had to take this image from one of the lenses manually,’ said Gaetz.
Gaetz also stated that pilots involved in the incident said ‘that if they have a UAP experience, the best thing to do for your career is to forget it.’
That statement echoed the testimony of Grusch when he suggested the US government has murdered people as part of the conspiracy to keep UFOs a secret.
Grusch also claimed that he had been told by multiple credible intelligence officials that the US government had recovered non-human aircraft that had ‘nonhuman’ biological pilots inside them.
The former US Intelligence agent added that he knows of ‘multiple colleagues’ who were physically injured by UFOs either after encountering them or working on them as part of these special access programs.
Grusch also said he had faced brutal retaliation after coming forward about his firsthand accounts of UFOs.
‘I do have knowledge of active planned reprisal activity against myself and other colleagues.
‘There were certain colleagues of mine that were brutally administratively attacked. It makes me very upset as a leader to see that happen to other co-workers and superiors of mine in the last three years,’ Grusch added.
‘How do you account for that response? That seems like a bizarre response,’ Maryland Democrat Jamie Raskin asked.
‘I call it administrative terrorism. That’s in their quiver or tool in the toolbox to silence people, especially the career government servants who care about their career, care about their clearance, their reputation, to climb the ladder, and when you threaten that flow, that career path, a lot of people back off, but I’m here to represent those people,’ Grusch said.
