🚨 BOOM: David Grusch may have seen proof of an extra-terrestrial mothership commanding a tic-tac UAP.

It sounds crazy, but it's spelled out in declassified documents.

Buckle up.🧵1/N

In 2021, it appears Mr. Grusch was the Acting Chief of the Operations Center for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO).

He led a team of 30, and he was responsible for the President's Daily Brief.

Any intel at NRO went through Mr. Grusch.

It's important to understand that NRO has the largest budget of any intelligence agency.

It has more resources than the NSA. More than the CIA.

It's the agency that creates and controls U.S. spy satellites and other top-secret sensor platforms.

One of the programs that NRO has been developing is "SENTIENT." It works sort of like the Precogs from Minority Report.

They predicted crime before it happened.

SENTIENT predicts where surveillance targets will appear, so it can have a satellite watching in advance.

We know about SENTIENT and how it works from declassified NRO briefings.

They indicate that sentient uses machine learning to integrate data from numerous platforms.

It can perform three-dimensional processing of moving targets, including UAVs, missiles, and WMDs.

What else can SENTIENT identify?

UAPs.

It has an entire machine-learning model devoted to spotting them. It just has to be turned on.

On May 6, 2021 SENTIENT detected a UAP over an unidentified ocean.

It did not match the visual signature of a normal aircraft.

It was less than 30-feet long.

It looked like the "tic tac."

We know from internal NRO documents that:

1. This "tic tac" was likely NOT a sensor artifact or focal-plane anomaly

2. It appeared in *multiple* satellite images, not merely one capture

Here's where things get really interesting.

During the original "tic tac" sighting near the Nimitz in 2004, F-18 pilots observed a 747-sized disturbance just beneath the water.

The "tic tac" was moving in the vicinity of that larger, unidentified object.

It's long been speculated that the larger object may have been controlling the "tic tac."

In this interpretation, the larger object was a sort of "command-and-control" vessel.

Is there anything from SENTIENT to corroborate that theory? YES!

NRO documented that the "tic tac" was accompanied by another object 25 km to the West.

The description of the object is redacted.

However, the NRO concluded it was a "high-interest vessel" whose simultaneous presence was "notable."

There are two ways to interpret this reference to a "vessel." It's either:

A) A human-ship operated by a foreign Navy

or

B) An NHI UAP operating in the area of the "tic tac."

I believe the evidence favors the second interpretation.

First, in order to analyze the vessel, the NRO resorts to "recent reporting" – i.e., recent satellite imagery and analysis.

This means they don't understand exactly what it is.

They're inferring its characteristics from sensors alone, with details redacted.

Second, the capabilities described do not quite sound like a human vessel.

It is a vessel that traditionally has had "space" functions.

More recently, it been "associated with command and control (C2) activities."

If this a human vessel, why don't they know what it is?

And what ships is it exercising command-and-control over?

The NRO reports don't mention any other ships in the area.

The only obvious candidate for what is being commanded + controlled is the "tic tac" UAP itself.

These captures by SENTIENT may be part of the smoking-gun UAP evidence we've been hearing so much about.

They sound consistent with the description provided by former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, @ChrisKMellon.

At the time of this incident in May 2021, David Grusch was one of the NRO's senior leaders.

He would have been intimately involved in analyzing the data.

Congress must ask him about SENTIENT, the "tic tac," and the mystery C2 vessel.

Redacted copies of the declassified NRO presentations are available at The Black Vault.

Thank you to John Greenwald (@blackvaultcom) and Kyle Warfel (@InfiniteFTL) for their excellent FOIA work.

We have the documents. Now we need the truth.
