Here’s the video interviewer scene from Reality Check with Ross Coulthart featuring former U.S. Army Senior Intelligence Officer Caison Best:
Imagine you're—quite literally—on top of the world, or at least the Cheyenne Mountain Complex, with sky-high expectations… and then an object that seems to pause time appears before your very eyes. That was the extraordinary experience shared by former Army Senior Intelligence Officer Caison Best in the latest episode of Reality Check with Ross Coulthart.
1. The Sighting That Stopped Them Cold
It’s early 2022. Best and his four fellow intelligence officers are en route to a meeting when a UAP emerges—massive, motionless, and eerily precise. Described as elliptical, comprising irregular yet uniform pentagonal panels with a “mother-of-pearl” sheen, it hovered calmly as if tethered to the sky itself. The Colorado bluebird day made it all the more surreal. All five men were stunned, and despite having only seconds to view it—perhaps around 30—they were all observing the same baffling object simultaneously. And no, they didn't film it. In their secure environment, phones weren't even allowed, and they simply couldn’t process it in time to react.(Reddit)
2. New Whistleblower Reporting with Resistance
Within 24 hours, Best had assembled a detailed PowerPoint report. But the reaction from AARO (the government’s UAP office) was, to put it mildly, disappointing—unprofessional and dismissive. That frustration pushed Best to collaborate with Ryan Graves’ Americans for Safe Aerospace (ASA), whose advocacy and support helped bring his experience into the light.(Reddit, safeaerospace.org)
3. What (or Who) Is Americans for Safe Aerospace?
Founded in 2023 and run by military aviator Ryan Graves, ASA is a pilot-led nonprofit aimed at reducing the stigma of reporting UAP sightings. It’s reportedly the world’s largest UAP advocacy group, with over 30,000 members worldwide.
The group helps pilots and veterans report UAPs in a safe, confidential way, collaborating closely with agencies such as the FBI, and pushing for more transparent systems within aviation and national security sectors.(safeaerospace.org, HorizonMass, theverticalspace.net)
4. A Community Speaks
The Reddit community at r/UFOs echoed the gravity of Best's new whistleblower testimony. One user captured his reaction in vivid detail:
“It was unlike anything I frankly could have made up... a massive, perfectly still, elliptical object... mother of pearl... panels glistened in the sun.”And: “We had five sets of eyes… then in one instance, it was there. The next, it was completely gone.”(Reddit)
These reflections paint a powerful picture of disbelief, unity, and fleeting presence—three ingredients of a story that demands attention.
