Summary

Chris Lehto is a retired F-16 pilot who investigates unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP). He discusses an article by Ryan Graves, a former Navy pilot, who highlights the need for more attention on UAPs. In 2014, Graves and his squadron encountered an unidentified dark gray cube inside a clear sphere while on a training mission off the Virginia coast. The object remained motionless against strong winds and was nearly hit by the jets. This incident led to safety reports, but little action was taken. Lehto emphasizes that advanced UAPs pose a safety risk and urges for more transparency and investigation into these phenomena. The encounter has motivated him to support advocacy for aerospace safety and to push for more disclosure from officials.
