NASA's Metallic Spheres: The Unexpected Briefing That Went Under the Radar

On July 1, 2023, a Pentagon official at NASA headquarters calmly stated, ‘We see these metallic spheres all over the world, making maneuvers we can’t explainmoving at Mach 2 against the wind, with no apparent propulsion.”

During a briefing where the Pentagon and NASA presented their findings after a year of research, a government scientist spoke about objects that challenge the fundamental principles of physics.

This should have dominated the headlines. Yet, it scarcely registered in the mainstream media.

NASA’s Briefing: Key Details & Quotes

You can watch the entire briefing here on Youtube. All of the quotes that I am using will be time-stamped, when possible.

Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, the head of the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), was straightforward and direct in his approach.

Showing a video of a metallic sphere captured by military sensors, he stated matter-of-factly: “This is a typical example of the thing that we see most of…

Then came the kicker that should have sent shockwaves through the scientific community: “We see these all over the world, and we see these making very interesting apparent maneuvers.” [36:12–36:29]

Hold on...what did you just say?

Here is a top government official, speaking at NASA headquarters, describing something that defied our understanding of physics: metallic spheres — as he clearly said in an example — “moving at Mach 2 against the wind with no apparent propulsion.” [1:03:41–1:03:55]

  • That’s twice the speed of sound.
  • Into the wind.
  • With no visible engines.

Dr. Kirkpatrick noted that they now have over 800 cases, [54:51–55:06] and that of these cases.- “The numbers I would say that we see are possibly really anomalous are less than single digit percentages… maybe two to five-ish percent.

While it may seem like a limited figure, there are still approximately 20 to 40 unusual instances involving metallic spheres, many comparable in size to small cars, capable of moving at impressive speeds without any visible method of propulsion.

Investigating the Spheres

This image was included in a presentation that was shared during the public briefing.

  • Size: About as big as a small car (3–13 feet across)
  • Altitude: Flying in the same airspace as commercial planes (10,000–30,000 feet)
  • Appearance: Metallic, spherical, solid
  • Movement: Could hover motionless, then accelerate to incredible speeds
  • Technology: No visible engines, no heat signature, no exhaust

Here’s what makes this truly strange. They are admitting that these objects, which by all laws of physics known to humans, shouldn’t be able to fly…are able to hover, and then accelerate to speeds up to Mach 2.

Picture a fighter jet from Top Gun, suspended quietly in the air, before it suddenly bursts into action, soaring to its maximum velocity.

Devoid of any engines.

Again — “We see these all over the world,” Kirkpatrick said. Notice his choice of words: “We see these.” Present tense. Not “We saw these once” or “Someone reported seeing these.” [36:16–36:29]

He’s talking about an occurrence that takes place regularly and consistently across the entire world.

The Rational Quandary
Are we possibly observing technology that is not of human origin?

Occam's Razor suggests that the most straightforward and elegant explanation is often the one that aligns most closely with reality.

When unusual phenomena show up in our skies, it's only logical to seek straightforward explanations. Let's take a cue from NASA's experts and analyze each potential cause with a balanced yet discerning perspective.

Could these be conventional aircraft? No. They need huge engines to fly.

Natural phenomena? No. NASA’s Dr. Fox emphasized, they’re dealing with solid objects showing “signatures that could be anomalous.” That’s scientist-speak for “things that shouldn’t be able to do what they’re doing.”

Secret military technology? This is what some people hope it could be. But no country would test their most advanced tech over other nations’ sensitive facilities. And, even more important, these orbs have been appearing for decades. No one had anything close to this kind of technology 40 years ago.

The Topic Everyone Avoids Talking About

This leads us to a topic that many scientists find challenging to address: technology created by non-human entities. This is where the discussion becomes captivating. This hypothesis aligns perfectly with all the available evidence:

  • Advanced technology beyond our current capabilities? Check.
  • Global presence? Check.
  • Consistent characteristics over decades? Check.
  • Ability to operate without conventional propulsion? Check.

Is this a satisfying conclusion? No. Does the technological evidence support it? Yes.

A Concise Historical Overview

What makes NASA's ongoing research particularly intriguing is that these metallic spheres are not a recent discovery. They align with a series of observations that have been recorded over many years:

  • WWII pilots called them “foo fighters”
  • Navy crews tracked them underwater in the 1950s
  • Commercial pilots have quietly reported them for years

The same traits continue to emerge:

  • Metallic spheres
  • Impossible maneuvers
  • No visible propulsion
  • Strategic locations
  • Apparent intelligence

Reaching this conclusion isn't easy. As I examine the facts, I can't help but feel, “This isn't as enjoyable as I anticipated. The possibility of non-human technology existing is somewhat…alarming.”

I have always been fascinated by the concept of "non-human technology." If it turns out to be real, it could fundamentally alter our perception of reality.

It's as though all those hypothetical "what if" discussions have suddenly transformed into reality. This is no longer just a fringe rumor or a conspiracy theory; it has now become verified information regarding objects performing the unimaginable in our atmosphere.

When NASA verifies the presence of anomalies such as these metallic orbs worldwide, it leads to significant changes.

What are our next steps from this point?

So what are NASA's next steps? Dr. Spergel, former head of Princeton’s astrophysics department, emphasized the necessity for improved data. He highlighted the need for additional sensors and more stringent data collection techniques if we are to find the answers we seek.

In the meantime, Dr. Nicola Fox acknowledged that researchers investigating these phenomena encounter significant harassment, which exacerbates the existing stigma. It’s disheartening, especially when leading experts are candidly stating, “We observe anomalies that elude explanation,” yet the public discourse continues to be mired in outdated skepticism.

To me, this presents a chance to investigate these observations with a new perspective, unburdened by the typical mockery.

Should NASA's findings indicate that advanced technologies beyond our current capabilities could have existed in the past, it suggests that some of the ancient technological enigmas may not be as puzzling as the various contradicting theories suggest. While it may seem like a bold conclusion, it's worth noting that NASA's revelations regarding extraordinary flight maneuvers were similarly groundbreaking.

The Design

I’ve spent the past few months investigating this connection between NASA’s modern metallic orbs and historical technological anomalies. The pattern that emerged was so compelling that I’ve documented it in my upcoming book “The Design: from ‘Drones’ to NASA’s Orbs to Ancient History.” [Link if interested in checking it out]

From the meticulous construction of Puma Punku in Bolivia to the enigmatic wisdom found in ancient locations, we are uncovering signs of technological disparities that appeared in the past...similar to the mysterious metallic orbs we encounter today.

By leveraging NASA's latest observations as a basis, we can now explore these historical enigmas from a fresh perspective.

If these insights have struck you as enlightening (or even unsettling) like they did for me, there are multiple ways you can stay updated on this investigation:

  • Check out the book to explore the full pattern [link]
  • Follow me here on Medium for regular updates
  • Share this article if you think others should know about NASA’s overlooked briefing

At this stage, I prefer to remain open-minded rather than overlook what might turn out to be the most significant narrative of our era.
