Virginia sightings detailed in UFO hearings

What they're saying: Graves recounted a 2014 encounter 10 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach in which he and his squadron "saw a clear sphere with a gray cube inside hovering 'motionless against the wind,'" per the Mercury.

• The pilots reported the sighting but said there was no further investigation by the military, he said.

👽 Of note: Another witness, former intelligence official David Grusch, told members the government is in possession of "nonhuman biologics" from a crashed UFO.

The big picture: The hearings underscored a bipartisan push for more government transparency around unidentified objects in space, per Axios' April Rubin.
