In late 2025, a senior U.S. intelligence officer and two pilots departed a Joint Operations Center by helicopter to investigate loud thuds and UAP sightings over a weapons test range. Hovering at 700 feet AGL, they observed countless orange orbs swarming near a mountain, then two large oval orbs stationary just above the rotor disk that expanded into a "T" formation of four or five before dimming over 10 to 15 seconds.
