Lee Adams, who once served aboard the USS Nimitz, recalls witnessing a huge object over a base in Virginia.
The former US Navy officer, who served aboard the vessel from 2012-2015, was not present during the famous 'Tic-Tac' UFO incident but does have a fascinating UFO story of his own to tell.

Speaking during an interview with Mike and Maurice's Mind Escape podcast, Adams recalled encountering a mysterious object while stationed at Virginia Beach.

"I look up and it's like a giant trash bag floating over the base," he said. "If you could imagine a trash bag that's two miles in diameter floating, translucent."

"It was doing that - I could see parts of it but at the same time parts of it were gone."
"It was shimmering in the sky, two miles in diameter."

Describing the anomalous object as a "sky jellyfish", Adams noted that he and his fellow pilots had also witnessed another aircraft that had appeared over the base just moments before.

"I think that the government knows about it - why would it be right next to a military base?" he said. "The military would know - there's something there, it landed outside the base behind the trees."

"You can't disprove it, credible people have seen that."
