Lawmakers heard a claim about an alien base in the deep ocean. Here is what is actually on the record
Eric Burlison said that he and Anna Paulina Luna met a whistleblower who alleged activity beneath the ocean and a structure in the deep sea. No public evidence accompanies that claim. Separately, a September 9, 2025 House hearing included sworn testimony from a Navy chief about an object emerging from the water near USS Jackson in 2023. The two accounts are distinct and should not be merged.
Burlison publicly described the meeting and the claim he heard. Separately, the House Oversight Committee published a hearing record with Chief Alexandro Wiggins, who testified about an event near USS Jackson. Neither publication confirms an alien base or an underwater structure.
The whistleblower's identity, meeting record, coordinates, imagery or sonar of the alleged structure, and original sensor files are not public. The USS Jackson account also lacks a public, complete sensor case file that would let outside investigators identify the objects independently.
What Burlison said, and what he did not
In the clip, Burlison said that he and Luna heard from a UAP whistleblower about activity under the ocean and a structure in the deep ocean. He did not identify the source, country, depth, coordinates, date or document. Alien base is therefore a headline shorthand for an allegation, not a conclusion confirmed by Congress or the Navy.
Separate sworn testimony: USS Jackson
At the House Oversight hearing on September 9, 2025, Senior Chief Alexandro Wiggins testified about a 2023 event while serving aboard USS Jackson. He said he saw a self-luminous Tic Tac-like object emerge from the water, join three similar objects and then disappear with unusual acceleration. The testimony matters because it was public and sworn. It did not allege an underwater structure and did not identify the objects as extraterrestrial.
First is the meeting Burlison described, with no open evidence. Second is Wiggins's account of a maritime observation, which has an official hearing record but not a complete public data package. Third is the larger proposition that a non-human installation exists under the sea. The first two do not establish the third, even though they explain why the subject draws attention.
The hearing was titled Restoring Public Trust Through UAP Transparency and Whistleblower Protection. Witnesses and members discussed whistleblower safeguards, interagency records and releasable information. A hearing does not endorse every claim made by every witness. It does create a public record of who said what, when and in what forum.
A serious inquiry needs time and location, chain of custody, original radar and sonar, vessel and sensor logs, raw deep-water imagery and testimony that can be cross-checked. Without those elements, a dramatic description of a structure remains hearsay. The ocean leaves wide room for misidentification, classified activity and sensing gaps, which is exactly why the evidentiary bar should be especially high.
This is interesting material, not a proven disclosure. Burlison and Luna heard a claim about a deep-ocean structure. Wiggins gave separate public testimony about a water-related event. No public material connects the two, and no open evidence establishes an alien base. This report will be updated if documents, coordinates or sensor data emerge.
