The account
Graves flew with the USS Theodore Roosevelt group, whose pilots detected objects they could not identify during the period when the Gimbal and GoFast videos were recorded. He testified to the House Oversight Committee in July 2023 alongside David Fravor and David Grusch, and founded Americans for Safe Aerospace to give pilots a trusted way to report UAP.
The sceptical view
Sceptics suggest that drones, balloons and sensor artefacts explain many of the tracks; Graves himself frames UAP mainly as a flight-safety issue.
