Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, had an unexpected encounter with an unidentified flying object (UFO) while returning to Arizona from a Wisconsin Badgers football game against Penn State.
The incident, which left the pilots of the aircraft puzzled, was shared by Kirk on social media.
As reported by Gateway Pundit, Kirk detailed the unusual experience in his post, stating, I was flying back from Wisconsin on a friends plane tonight and got called up to the cockpit. The pilots were very confused at what they were seeing. He further added, Something was above them and not showing on the radar. Im sure there is a logical explanation here. Watch this video and tell me what I am missing.
The video shared by Kirk features a conversation with the pilot, who can be heard saying, We are at 40,000 feet. So, whatever that is has to be at 80,000 or 100,000 feet. I mean way up there. Kirk, intrigued by the situation, questioned, What kind of thing wouldnt be picked up by radar? Could it be military? To which the pilot suggested that it could be something akin to stealth.
Kirk's post sparked a flurry of comments from social media users attempting to explain the unidentified flying object. John Dawson, a user on the platform, responded to Kirks post, stating, SSR radar (especially run-of-the-mill) generally only goes to 60K feet, so if it is at least 80 K feet, that is why it is not showing up on the radar. Another user suggested that the mysterious objects could be Starlink satellites.
While Kirk's encounter with the UFO certainly raises questions about what could be lurking in our skies, it also underscores the importance of maintaining an open mind and seeking logical explanations. As Kirk himself noted, there is likely a rational explanation for the sighting, even if it remains unidentified for now. As the debate continues, one thing is clear: the skies above us hold many mysteries yet to be unraveled.
