Summoning UFOs? Skywatcher Group Draws Pentagon’s Eye with Bold New Claims

A new wave of intrigue has surged through the UFO research community following recent revelations on NewsNation, where investigative journalist Ross Coulthart reported that a private group known as Skywatcher is claiming consistent, measurable contact with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) through unconventional means. Even more surprising is the acknowledgment that the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) has observed their operations in person.

Who Is Skywatcher?

Skywatcher is a private UAP research team led by Air Force veteran Jake Barber. The group has garnered attention by claiming they can summon UAPs using an “electromechanical whistle” — a signaling device similar in concept to a dog whistle, but presumably emitting frequencies or pulses detectable by unknown aerial objects. Barber asserts that their method yields a 100% success rate, meaning a UAP-like event occurs every time they use their system under the right conditions.

Pentagon’s Quiet Involvement

While the U.S. Department of Defense officially maintains that there is no conclusive evidence of extraterrestrial contact, Coulthart revealed that the Pentagon’s UFO investigation unit, AARO, has visited Skywatcher’s testing range. The range remains classified, but it’s described as a controlled site where repeated experiments take place.

Although not officially partnering with or endorsing Skywatcher, the Pentagon’s willingness to observe their operations marks a shift in how private initiatives are being acknowledged. Coulthart emphasized that this reflects a more open attitude within the defense establishment — potentially hinting at the inevitability of future disclosures.

Nine Types of UFOs on Video?

One of the most anticipated aspects of this development is a forthcoming video release by Skywatcher. According to Coulthart, the group claims to have captured footage of nine distinct shapes of UFOs, which include:

• The well-known “Tic Tac” and “Egg”-shaped crafts,
• And a bizarre “Jellyfish”-like object, reportedly with a metallic top and what appears to be fluid, tentacle-like extensions.

The footage has not yet been made public, but Coulthart expects it to surface soon. He notes that Skywatcher’s team is working to finalize the material, which could potentially shake up the ongoing debate around UAPs and their origins.

Implications for UFO Disclosure

Coulthart points out a growing discrepancy between the Pentagon’s public denials and private interest in such cases. He believes Skywatcher may be demonstrating what government and defense agencies have allegedly explored in secret for decades: the controlled engagement — or even summoning — of unknown aerial craft.

While skeptics may view these claims as speculative or fringe, the involvement of credible military personnel and the interest of a government office like AARO lend a surprising level of legitimacy to the story.

What Comes Next?

The coming weeks could be crucial. If Skywatcher releases their video as promised — and if the footage is verifiable — it might not just support their extraordinary claims but also force a broader public and institutional conversation about what we know (or don’t know) about UAPs.

In the meantime, Ross Coulthart continues to investigate the story further on his Reality Check podcast and through NewsNation. Whether this leads to mainstream acknowledgment or remains another mysterious chapter in the UAP saga depends heavily on the evidence Skywatcher delivers.
