A new whistleblower, Jake Barber, is coming forward with claims of seeing an egg-shaped UFO while working for a secret UAP retrieval program. According to reports, footage proving the UFO retrieval program is going to be released on Saturday.
Jake Barber Said He Saw an Egg-Shaped Non-Human Craft
Barber, a U.S. Air Force veteran, has recently come forward to NewsNation with claims of encountering an egg-shaped non-human craft during his tenure in a covert government UFO retrieval program. Barber detailed his experiences piloting helicopters to sites of downed UFOs, some of which he believed were non-human.
“I saw an egg, a white egg…” he told NewsNation. “It’s inconsistent with anything I’d ever seen before. I can also tell you that the reaction by my team, we all knew we were dealing with something extraordinary.”
He added: “Just visually looking at the object on the ground, you could tell that it was extraordinary and anomalous. It was not human.”
Barber said that over the last couple years, he learned from ranking members of a UAP task force that the object he and his colleagues worked with “was, in fact, NHI and it was not a unique experience.”
Beyond his military service, Barber might maintain a presence on social media. On Threads and Instagram, there is are accounts owned by a Jake Barber with a bio that notes he was a pilot, former USAF member, and Gracie Survival Tactics Instructor with a Gracie Black Belt. The Instagram account is private and has more than 1,800 followers, and the photo appears to be the same Barber. However, the account is not verified.
Footage of a UFO Retrieval Is Being Released Saturday Night
NewsNation also reported that exclusive video that proves the alleged UFO retrieval is going to be shared on Saturday night, along with more interviews about UFO retrievals. The program, “Hunting UFOs: The Crash Retrieval Whistleblower,” is airing on NewsNation at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central on Saturday, January 18.
When someone on X wrote, “Wait, so are they actually going to show the retrieval footage? 😮” Coulthart replied: “Yes. They Are.”
In a sneak peek of the special report, journalist Ross Coulthart says that Barber’s credentials were verified to him by three other people, and two of his colleagues backed up his claims about the UFO retrieval program.
Barber told Coulthart at 5:46 into the video below that he got “within 150 feet of this object” while piloting a helicopter for the program at night. He said the “white egg” shaped craft had no visible engine or thermal signature.
He said that his and his team’s reactions all lined up with believing it was an NHI craft, because it resembled nothing made by humans.
Coulthart added that they have confirmed that evidence about this craft has been given to AARO and to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence by a firsthand whistleblower.
“Congress already has this information,” he said, adding that the proper authorities have all been notified.
Barber’s revelations contribute to a broader discourse initiated by other military personnel and intelligence officers, such as former intelligence officer David Grusch, who testified before Congress about the U.S. government’s alleged concealment of a longstanding program dedicated to retrieving and reverse-engineering UFOs.
These disclosures have intensified calls for greater transparency and accountability from government agencies, including two hearings in Congress with witnesses testifying about UAPs.
Egg-Shaped UFOs Have Been Reported in Several Notable UAP Incidents
Egg-shaped UFOs have appeared in several historical UAP incidents.
New Mexico in 1964
On April 24, 1964, in Socorro, New Mexico, police officer Lonnie Zamora observed a shiny, egg-shaped object on the ground, accompanied by two individuals. The object emitted a roaring blue and orange flame before ascending into the sky. This event was investigated by the U.S. Air Force’s Project Blue Book and remains unexplained.
Levelland, Texas in 1957
On November 2, 1957, in Levelland, Texas, multiple witnesses reported encounters with a brilliantly lit, egg-shaped object. Motorists described their vehicle engines and headlights failing in the presence of the UFO, which would then take off, allowing their cars to function normally again.
Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, in 1957
On November 4, 1957, air traffic controllers at Kirtland AFB in Albuquerque, New Mexico, observed a vertically elongated, egg-shaped object with a single white light at its base. The object maneuvered over the airfield before ascending rapidly into the overcast sky.
Roswell in 1947
According to some reports, a second object found about 27 miles from the Roswell wreckage site was egg-shaped, People reported. (One Reddit thread addresses the disparity of some reports noting a delta-wing-shaped object crashing near Roswell, and other reports noting an egg-shaped craft. The book “Witness to Roswell” claims the egg-shaped craft was likely an escape pod from the main craft.)
On July 2, 1947, the infamous disc-shaped crash happened 75 miles outside of Roswell, New Mexico. Rancher W.W. Mack Brazel discovered debris in a field near his home the next day and delivered it to the Air Force. Major Jesse Marcel then delivered them to Brigadier General Roger Ramey. Ramey held a press conference claiming the wreckage was from a weather balloon. But about 30 years later, when he was terminally ill, Marcel said the material was “not anything of this earth.”
The egg-shaped craft comes into play after Ramey’s press conference, People reported. The day after the press conference, archeologists from Western Texas Tech allegedly came across an egg-shaped craft the size of a Volkswagen Beetle about 27 miles away from the wreckage site, along with non-human bodies. Capt. Oliver Pappy Henderson flew the alleged bodies to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, according to his wife, Sappho, in an interview with “Unsolved Mysteries,” People reported. (SBS.com reported that Walter Haut, a public information officer at the Air Force base at the time, also shared similar information with his daughter.)
