USS Nimitz UFO Incident - Mysterious Object Captured On Footage #04 - a podcast by SMP

Did Navy F/A-18 Super Hornets encounter an alien spacecraft and capture the UFO encounter on video?
On this week's episode we discuss the mysterious and pivotal UFO encounter by two U.S navy fighter jets that happened in 2004. This case in particular sparked our interest because of the infamous UFO footage captured by one of the jets, as well as the reliability of the witnesses and technology involved in documenting a brush with the paranormal in the form of an unindentfied flying object.

Welcome to Solvable Mysteries Podcast, hosted by Juras Sim and co-hosted by Glenn Highcove.  
On this episode of the Solvable Mysteries Podcast, Juras and Glenn discuss the Nimitz UFO incident in detail.  Our analysis includes discussion of the SPY-1 radars on the Aegis-enabled Princeton cruiser that vectored then-Commander David Fravor and his F-18 wingmen to the location, as well as the larger, Fermi Paradox-relevant questions that this incident creates when one analyzes the true significance of this seemingly solvable UFO mystery.  We also give some updates on the Nimitz UFO story in terms of what the Princeton radar operator was quoted as saying recently about why these objects suddenly started showing up.

The USS Nimitz UFO incident refers to the encounter of an unidentified flying object by US fighter pilots of the Nimitz Carrier in 2004, November 14th.
