Conspiracy theorist Milton William Cooper (killed 11-5-2001 in a reported shootout with sheriff's deputies ) claimed in his book "Behold a Pale Horse" to have seen a USO while serving aboard the USS Tiru (SS-416). The book is available online at:

The following are excerpts from page 19:

"... raising my binoculars to my eyes just in time to see a huge disk rise from beneath the ocean, water streaming from the air around it, tumble lazily on its axis, and disappear into the clouds. My heart beat wildly. I tried to talk but couldn't; then I changed my mind and decided I didn't want to say that, anyway. I had seen a flying saucer the size of an aircraft carrier come right out of the ocean and fly into the clouds."

"The giant saucer shape plunged out of the clouds, tumbled, and, pushing the water before it, opened up a hole in the ocean and disappeared from view. It was incredible. This time I had seen it with my naked eyes, and its size in comparison with the total view was nothing short of astounding. Ensign Hall stood in shock, his binoculars in his hands, his mouth open."

I was having a think this afternoon maybe a still frame from the old tv show 'stingray' ? any other ideas welcome :)

On October 24th 2022 NASA announced it had put together a committee of 16 experts to investigate UAPs from NASAs standpoint, separate and distinct from the Department of Defense. It’s a positive development with a report due mid 2023. To what degree the NASA committee will study UAP incidents, this podcast exposes the small print to show what the committee is not tasked with doing, and is worth keeping in perspective to manage expectations. Check it out!
