WEAPONIZED with Jeremy Corbell & George Knapp
Massive Mystery Cubes Invade Vandenberg Space Force Base : Military Cops Give Chase - Guest : Jeff Nuccetelli
Tue, 01 Apr 2025
Vandenberg Space Force Base has a long and storied history of spectacular missile and rocket launches and has been essential to some of the most advanced defense technologies ever tested and developed by the U.S. military and its contractors. Vandenberg has also been the site of many of the most dramatic UFO incursions in history. In this episode of Weaponized, Jeremy and George are joined by an Air Force veteran, Jeff Nuccetelli, who spent years at Vandenberg as a military police officer and who witnessed and investigated spectacular but chilling incursions by gigantic craft of unknown origin, including the sudden appearance of an enormous cube or rectangle that glowed red as it slowly crept over the top-secret Vandenberg range. The story told by this witness is included in a soon-to-be-released documentary film, The Age of Disclosure, by director Dan Farah. In this conversation, he shares previously unknown details about the Red Square UFO and about a similar incursion by another gigantic object that appeared over the base and caused perplexed security personnel to ask some tough questions.

Chapter 1: What event occurred at Vandenberg Air Force Base?
A large group of Boeing contractors were operating near one of the launch facilities at Vandenberg Air Force Base when they observed a very large 100-yard-sided wreck. Square approach the base from the ocean.
I got there in 1999. I left Vandenberg in 2006. So I walked over and all at once they all start to tell me that at 0845 that morning we had a real world UFO event at Launch Facility 21 on the north end of the base. And these contractors were working on site One of them walked outside and noticed there was this gigantic red glowing square shaped object hovering at low altitude over the launch pad.
Was there also a landing?
yeah we had in that same time period this is the you call it the blotter right security forces blotter people can see this right they can see the account as recorded yeah it's actually not uh like publicly available anywhere i've shared it with congress and arrow and the fbi and can we can we put it out for this episode make sure people see it yeah you can absolutely i would like uh people i want the public to be aware this is happening and it's real so yeah
This is Weaponized. I'm George Knapp, coming to you from Las Vegas, joined by my friend and colleague, Jeremy Korbel. How's it going, Jeremy? Really good, man. We've got good stuff today. You know, a couple of weeks ago, we mentioned to our audience that we had been in Austin, Texas. We got to see this premiere at South by Southwest of a new UFO documentary called The Age of Disclosure.
This thing by Dan Farah directed it. not yet released to the general public, but it's coming soon. And it is jam-packed with so many statements from government people, former and current government officials, intelligence officials, former military scientists who've all done deep dives of their own into the UFO topic. And included in that film
is a very brief discussion of an absolutely fantastic UFO incident that occurred at Vandenberg Air Force Base, which has been the scene of a lot of activity over the years. And I wanted to know more about that. It was incredible. I had heard little bits and pieces before, but I thought that thing is definitely worth exploring in greater detail, and you're making it happen here today.
Yeah, the red cube.
It's so exciting. That is something that was testified to by Ryan Graves in Congress, but that's not how it got there. How it got there was a friend that we're going to have on, and he's 16 years Air Force, and essentially is not just a witness to some of these events, but also is an investigator.

Chapter 2: What details are known about the Red Square UFO?
So this was taken extremely seriously. Yeah.
this is 2003 it's a year before the famous tic-tac case at the time had you were you up on ufo history of vandenberg the kinds of things that happened to bob jacobs and mr launches uh decades earlier yeah i was aware of that case um i used to listen to like coast to coast am radio and things like that so you know because you're working all night and there's nothing so i would listen to that and a lot of people in the military did so we i knew a little bit about that but um
But I hadn't seen anything at Vandenberg up until that day in October. Yeah.
And you brought, I mean, I'm sure you put this public already. This is the, you call it the blotter, right? Security forces blotter. People can see this, right? They can see the account as recorded.
Yeah. It's actually not like publicly available anywhere. I've shared it with Congress and Arrow and the FBI.
Can we put it out for this episode?
Make sure people see it. Yeah, you can. Absolutely. I would like people, I want the public to be aware this is happening and it's real. So yeah.
So it turns out the gigantic red square is not the only gigantic square. There was another one.
Yeah. So we came on duty that evening and I, me and some of my friends were like, you know, in, in quite a state, like excited. So I was going out UFO hunting that night. So I went up to the armory. I got some NVGs. I got a thermal portable thermal imager, some binocs and me and my buddies went out hunting UFOs. So, um, I was out some period. We think this happened around midnight.

Chapter 3: How did the military respond to the UFO sightings?
But I mean, the Red Square happened when compared to the Dark Square?
The Red Square was 8.45 in the morning. This was around midnight or...
So within the same 12 or 14 hour period. Squares over Vandenberg. I mean, non-aerodynamic. Do you think that they saw what they're calling the black, the matte black square-ish UAP that seems huge as well? Do you think that they saw that as a light when its propulsion was active and it was coming towards it? When did it go from a light to a black matte square? As it was approaching.
They described it as... it looked like it was getting bigger and the light was getting brighter as it came in. So it would kind of almost look like an aircraft on approach with like really bright approach lights on. But then as it got closer, the lights just went out. Wow. Was there also a landing? Yeah.
In that same time period, we know that the landing occurred sometime between October 14th and October 31st. because the direct eyewitness deployed to Iraq on Halloween night. And he's another close friend of mine. We worked together. I was his supervisor. And that particular night, he was on a security patrol located near the flight line. And him and his partner, same thing.
They observe a strange, weird light over the Western Ocean. They know this was weird because the flight line at the time was shut down. No aircraft inbound or outbound. And as police, we know that. We track aircraft coming in and where they're parked and things like that. So they knew the flight line was shut down and not active. All the runway lights were off.
And they see a light, again, like just kind of out there over the ocean, very bright, kind of moving strangely. They observed it for some period of time. And eventually they called it in over the net. They're like, we've got another weird light. It doesn't look like an aircraft. It's just kind of out there. And this kind of unfolded very rapidly, too.
So it looked like it was getting closer and it looked like it was dropping in altitude and looked like it was an aircraft on approach. Now, we have incidents like that happen. in the Air Force, and it's called an unannounced aircraft arrival. And it's one of the most serious security events we can have in the Air Force. You cannot have unknowns approaching and landing on your base, right?
So it looks like it's approaching. So they called in, be advised we have a possible unannounced aircraft arrival. So this triggers a massive response. People start to respond. And I was not on duty for this because my guy was actually assigned to another flight. That's why he was on security. He was typically a law enforcement troop.

Chapter 4: What evidence exists for the UFO encounters?
I'm in charge of the law enforcement program on the base. So we think it was around my birthday because I had a party. You know, all the flight, all my, you know, my buddies I work with were over at my house barbecuing. Party wound down. And then around like midnight again, me and two of my good friends, Brandon and Phoenix, they were dating at the time. Now they're married.
They've been married for like 20-something years. We're sitting in my backyard on the base in base housing. My wife at the time was asleep in the house. And we were just sitting around the campfire, you know, drinking beer. And we were talking about all the UFO stuff.
Because Brandon's father had been in the Navy and had witnessed another insane event up in the Seattle area that was all over the papers and things. So we were having this deep conversation about the phenomenon and everything. And Phoenix was distracted. She kept looking over her shoulder. And finally, you know, we're like, what are you doing? She's like, do you guys see that light?
We're like, what? We all stand up, and I get away from the fire, and I look, and it looks like a satellite at extreme altitude. And it looked just like a satellite. You know, it's tracking from west to east, very high altitude. But it was weird because it was pulsating in this very, like, sort of slow, rhythmic rhythm.
way and the light was strange it was kind of scintillating and it was this whitish blue this beautiful whitish blue color so we watched it for a while and we're going through like oh that's satellite brands like dude i don't know why is it good so we're going through the whole thing like what is it why is it acting like that and then it starts to maneuver strangely It starts to drop in altitude.
And at one point, it looked like it was fluttering around like a leaf. And we're all like, whoa, what is going on? And eventually, it gets lower and lower. And there were points of time where it would kind of wink out. We'd lose it. And right after one of those times, the sky was clear. We could see the stars. And eventually, like, it winked back in, and it was right over the house.
I estimated at the time it was, like, 500 feet up. Phoenix said about 200, 250 feet. I estimated it at about 50 feet in diameter. She said about 30. But it was this huge, glowing, bluish-white, liquidy orb. And it was just sitting there. And we were just in complete awe, complete shock. And then it like vanished. It just was gone. And I blinked a couple times. I looked at my friends.
And then I'm like, okay, just keep your eyes on the spot. And I did that. And for some reason, my eyes were tracking this way and my body turned. And then when it reappeared, my eyes were right on it. It had tracked, I don't know, like maybe 100 yards. And I was looking directly at it and it had gone up. And it just sat there for a little bit.
It wasn't pulsing anymore like it had been at high altitude. And then I had this moment of like sheer primal terror. And this thought popped into my head. I'm like, oh, my God, like did that did it just abduct my my wife? Is it going to abduct us? Like what is going on? And I just took a breath. I calmed down and I just I'm like, don't look away. And we just watched it. And then it sort of gently.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of the Red Cube incident?
I'm like, hey, man, you know, I know this sounds like, fucking crazy, but here's what just happened. And this is probably like midnight, one in the morning. And I'm like, I know you don't want to do this, but I'm like, you need to wake some people up. You need to call the command post. You need to call the commander. You need to call, make all the notifications. I call me back.
I want to know whether I want to know balloons. I want to know radar on and off. So probably 15 or 20 minutes went by, you know, the guy's like, dude, like really, you want me to call the commander, right? I'm like, wake him up. They did all that. They called back and they're like, dude, nothing on radar, nothing. We made all the notifications.
I told them, cool, put in the blotter, put all the info, me, Brandon, Phoenix, type it up. When I come in in the morning, I'll write up a statement and I'll write up a report and we'll log it. And I did all that the next day. And then I was in your house. It was right over my house. It was right over there.
So it's one thing to, as a military police officer, to be responding to reports from other people. You see this yourself. You and your friends see this thing. Does it change how you view the topic in general?
It changed every aspect of my life. It was a life-changing experience on every fundamental level, man. I've never stopped looking up. And that's when I really I was always interested in UFOs and stuff because my grandmother's case. And I didn't mention my dad actually saw the Kecksburg fireball from Kecksburg, Pennsylvania. I grew up in a coal mining town about 30 or 40 miles from Kecksburg.
My dad was a coal miner. And when he was young, he saw that fireball come in and he heard the boom, you know, the crash or the sonic boom or whatever happened. But he, you know, and that turned into like, that's the Roswell of Pennsylvania.
So you're a third generation UFO witness.
Yeah. And so I was always interested, but then it happened and I'm like, you know, then I got really interested. That's when I really started, you know, digging into old cases and trying to piece together. Like what the, what is it? Why did it come? Was it a coincidence that we were talking about it? and all that. And over the years, I'm like, there, there are no coincidences, man. I don't know.
But, uh, it, it came and said, hello.

Chapter 6: How do UFO sightings affect military contractors?
Any of that?
I don't know. But if it is, they need to stop and they need to share it. Because that's beyond next generation technology. That is world-changing, history-changing technology. And if they've got that, it's time to stop with the military application of it. and let civilian scientists in the public know what, whatever it is they've developed.
But I, it could be, but the thing I saw, it never entered my mind that that might be human technology. Never. Now, some of the other things I'm totally open to that. Like I've heard lots of credible people that have told me that they, that we do have technology like that. And so it could be, but if the government is flying that type of technology, 200 feet over my children,
They need to they need to quit. You know, I don't know why they think that's OK.
Right. And so that's the big question. Have we reverse engineered any of this technology? But even if we have, these experiences seem so personal, like this huge sphere over your house, like the, you know, cube thing. or cubes that came over Vandenberg Air Force Base. Those are uncontrolled flights. I mean, they're not told, people aren't told that that's happening.
So no matter who is operating these units or these vehicles, even if we've reverse engineered stuff, these are, this is a dangerous game that's being played. And as you said, it could also change the world.
It's so dangerous. It's unbelievable. None of my friends fired on it. But we're trained to do that. You don't allow an unknown helicopter to come over a restricted area. We will shoot it down. Back in the day when I was in, my friends were Stinger missile qualified. We had Stinger missiles, man. So it's dangerous.
If the government is doing this, if they're flying over Langley and Lake and Heath and Vandenberg and the ranges and they're almost hitting F-18s off the coast of San Diego and They need to quit. Like, what are they doing? They're going to get somebody killed.
One of the theories that was shared with me by some people who work for intelligence agencies. Oh, yeah. These are security tests like plant 42 in the Mojave Desert near Palmdale. Very sensitive technology being developed there, including our advanced drone technology, B-21. They had these incursions last year.

Chapter 7: What similarities exist between the Red Square and Dark Square incidents?
Because, fine, what if something goes wrong and it crashes into a nuclear facility, onto a flight line, into a church? So when we do, and like Dave Fravor said, we have ranges for that. They own Nevada, do it there. And the other thing, and I conducted exercises on my people to prepare them and train, and people would do that to me. We would initiate the exercise online.
Be advised, an alarm has been triggered on the fence line of this restricted area. We would immediately initiate the exercise because I'm out there shaking the fence. I don't want my guys to shoot me and kill me because they don't know. So this whole narrative is nonsense. And if that is true, somebody needs to be held accountable because it's outrageous. It's dangerous.
And and I mean, they're freaking everybody out. Some of my neighbors here in Jersey were freaked out like they were like affected. Because I said, like, over the neighborhood, these things were flying 200, 300 feet or hovering over our homes. And they were making absolutely no noise. And they're flashing these weird. And they have kids. And they're like, what is going on?
You know, I was born in New Jersey and there are some similarities from Jersey, parts of Jersey to Nevada, where I live now. I'm amazed that somebody in New Jersey didn't get out a gun and shoot at these things, at these drones. I mean, maybe they did and they just didn't have any effect.
Yeah, could be. And eventually that will happen. Eventually that if that's what's going on, somebody is going to take a pop shot.
Yeah. Well, I want to thank you, Jeff, for talking with us. Maybe this is the first of a couple of times we'll talk with you. I appreciate you kind of putting yourself out there. And I really appreciate you providing the evidence and letting us put it out. I mean, this security forces blotter.
Everybody asks for a video and we've done that recently and we're going to do it again, but also just having this documentation that you obtained and are putting out. So thanks for making that part of the public record and not just to Congress and ERA. I appreciate the effort that you've put into this. You're welcome.
By the way, Jeff, I know what our viewers are going to say. Where's the photos? Do you think there's any video of what you saw over Vandenberg or what was seen over Vandenberg? And if so, where would it be?
Back then, you know, cell phones were not what they are. We have flip phones. And so and when we worked in restricted areas, like we're not allowed to like video anything like that. The base had incredible capabilities in multiple domains.
