Original subtitles

LINDA MOULTON HOWE: This is the best document

that's been leaked.

What is in this book is, I'm going to say, shocking.

You have the illustrations of different craft.

I've seen this shape before, in India.

It's an upside down vimana shape.

I mean, this is sensational.

HOWE: There is a paragraph in here that implies some agreement

between the United States and the extraterrestrials.

"The encounters will take place

"at military installations

selected by mutual agreement."

This is solid confirmation that our government knew,

and was dealing with

extraterrestrial entities and technology.

This is solid.

NARRATOR: Burbank, California.

December 1984.

Movie producer and UFO researcher,

Jaime Shandera,

arrives home to find a manila envelope

has been dropped through the mail slot

of his front door.

The postmark indicates

that it was sent from Albuquerque, New Mexico,

but no return address is written on the envelope.

When he opens it, he finds only a roll of 35mm film.

And what he had received was this package right here.

This is the original package.

And inside the package, there was a roll of film

inside this canister.

And this is actually the roll of film that he received.

And this film, when copied properly,

produced these eight pages

of the Eisenhower Briefing Document.

NARRATOR: The Eisenhower Briefing Document is a memo

that was allegedly written in 1952

by the first director of the CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter,

to President-Elect Dwight Eisenhower.

In it, Hillenkoetter writes

that sitting president Harry Truman

has formed a secret group within the U.S. government,

called The Majestic-12,

to examine crashed extraterrestrial spacecraft.

WOOD: The document that he received basically reported

that we had had previous crashes,

including the one at Roswell.

The bottom line recommendation

to President Eisenhower was that this topic

continue to be kept secret.

NARRATOR: Aerospace engineer, Dr. Robert Wood,

was one of the men Shandera asked to examine this memo.

His 43-year career included work on aerodynamic heating,

ballistic missile defense,

radar, and the space station.

It is his opinion that this document is the smoking gun

to prove that the most famous alleged UFO crash of all time--

the Roswell incident--

really was an extraterrestrial event.

WOOD: For several years, I was looking

at the authenticity of this memo

and trying to relate to other sources.

In terms of the main ideas and the statements of fact

in the memo being correct, I'm-I'm confident that they are.

NARRATOR: The Roswell incident

that is detailed in the Eisenhower Briefing Document

occurred in 1947, during Truman's first term in office,

when Eisenhower was chief of staff of the Army.

On July 7,

an unidentified object crashed on a ranch

just outside the town of Roswell, New Mexico.

The next day, the local newspaper announced

that officials from the Army Air Field

had reported the capture of a "flying saucer."

But just a few hours later, the military revised that statement

to say the object was nothing more than a weather balloon.

Since that time, further details have emerged

from alleged insiders,

that not only one craft, but three,

and even alien bodies were retrieved that night.

Harry Truman is President of the United States.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, General Nathan Twining,

these people would be the very first

that would get these calls.

And there was some sort of a communication glitch.

That's how that headline made it out.

That one headline was telling the truth

that this government did not want

information about non-humans

out to what their perceived enemies were.

And Harry S. Truman-- a practical man, in every way--

looking at this whole situation,

he must have said, "I need help I can trust."

DOUGLAS CADDY: If you were President Truman in 1947,

and you were presented with credible evidence

that there was an alien presence

on planet Earth, what would you do?

You would create a commission to study what is going on,

and make recommendations and explore the subject.

What did President Harry Truman do?

He created Majestic-12.

He created the National Security Act.

He created the National Security Council,

and he created the CIA, all at the same time

in response to this threat.

MIKE BARA: The U.S. government decided it needed to have

a main central oversight committee

that would handle the so-called alien problem.

The mission of MJ-12

was to decide on what the United States government policy

should be towards aliens and extraterrestrials,

what it should be towards releasing the information

or keeping it secret.

And they were empowered to ultimately decide

everything regarding the presence of aliens

on the planet Earth.

NARRATOR: President Eisenhower's

great-granddaughter, Laura Eisenhower,

claims that the Majestic-12 was a real organization,

and that her great-grandfather had no choice but to continue

what his predecessor, Harry Truman, had started.

President Eisenhower was definitely, uh,

in a very challenged position as far as

how to handle the exo-political issues going on.

Uh, he was actually the scapegoat or somebody, uh,

everybody could later blame for some of the things

that are happening, that is actually MJ-12.

This is the hidden shadow government.

He wasn't able to do anything about it.

But the ones that were close to him knew

that he was going to put out this information for the public.

And it got shut down.

They even had a planned date, and nothing ended up happening.

NARRATOR: March 1994.

Almost a decade after Jaime Shandera received

the Eisenhower Briefing Document,

Majestic-12 researchers

are shocked when a second roll of film surfaces.

This time it is sent anonymously to a UFO group in Maryland

from Quillin's drugstore in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Investigative journalist, Linda Moulton Howe,

was among the first to examine these documents,

and she has been conducting research on MJ-12

for more than two decades.

In April 2017,

editor and researcher, Giorgio Tsoukalos,

traveled to Albuquerque, New Mexico

to meet with Linda and find out what she knows

about these mysterious documents.

GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: So if I understand this correctly,

the first documentation of the MJ-12 files came in the form

of 35mm negatives,

that somebody, at some point, took photos

of a document that existed in paper form.

Do we know who did this?

Who took those photographs?

Throughout my experience as a reporter,

there are people who have served in the military

or CIA, DIA, NSA, NRO, and they are out there,

and they have grudges, they are angry,

they feel that this story should come out,

or that they have been infringed against.

And in this case,

this might have been somebody who had this manual

in their work,

photographed it,

maybe right there at the pharmacy,

and the rest is history.

Of all the documents that I've ever seen and studied,

it is this restricted SOM1-01,

Majestic-12 Group Special Operations Manual

that I think is really confirmation.

It goes beyond disclosure, because...

this is April 1954, Majestic-12 Group.

It's the War Office stamp; it is real.

And, the title:

"Extraterrestrial Entities

"and Technology Recovery and Disposal.

Top Secret. Majic Eyes Only."

And in here,

"majic" is defined as the top,

the highest national security clearance

in the United States.

TSOUKALOS: This is sensational.

NARRATOR: Did the United States government learn

about an alien presence on Earth in the 1940s,

and devise a top secret committee

to investigate this shocking revelation?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and suggest further examination of the MJ-12 documents reveals

that the government was not only aware of extraterrestrials,

but also interacted with them.

NARRATOR: Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos

is at the home of Linda Moulton Howe.

After examining all of the material

related to the Majestic-12,

she believes that the most compelling documents

are those that surfaced in Maryland in 1994.

This, to me,

this is the best document that's been leaked.

It's called "Restricted SOM1-01. Majestic-12 Group."

And all of us, when we first saw that title,

"Extraterrestrial Entities and Technology,

Recovery and Disposal,"

one of the first things that everybody wanted to do

was find out, okay, did they use

this stamp in 1954

from the War Office?

Turns out that they did all the way up into the '60s.

And one of the more important pieces,

I think, is as you go through here...

they found, in a government printing office...

Take a look at this.

This is from a blowup where they were doing a test,

and look at this "unauthorized"

and look at what happens to that "Z."

It raises slightly.

-Right. -So, Bob went

to the government printing office

and found a guy named McCarter

who was printing in the GPO

in Washington, D.C. in 1954.

And he took one look at this text

and he said, "This was done on a monotype.

"I used it.

"And the 'Z' would collect dust,

and that's why the Zs would print raised."

So different steps

have been taken to authenticate this document.

HOWE: Yes.

The fellow I spoke to, he, fortunately,

had been a long, longtime employee of the public printer

and had actually worked on the kind of presses

that he thought were appropriate for this document.

He said, "Based on the printing, I'd say

"it clearly was printed on one of the presses,

"in this building or in this basement of the Pentagon

in 1954," which is what it says.

HOWE: And then when you start

getting into what is in this book,

you have the illustrations and sketches

of four different categories

of different craft, UFOs.

And on this page, here are the discs.

Here is a long cigar shape,

which is described in this document

as being up to a thousand feet in diameter.

And then, this one, the ice cream cone,

and this, the triangle.

And there is a paragraph in here that implies

that we are dealing with collaboration,

that there must be

some agreement between the United States

-and the extraterrestrials. -Really?

There is, on this page 17...

It's under chapter five,

and it goes into, "a. Encounters initiated

"by the extraterrestrial biological entities.

"Possible contact may take place

"as a result of overtures by the entities themselves.

"In these instances it is anticipated

"that encounters will take place

"at military installations

"or other obscure locations

selected by mutual agreement."

-TSOUKALOS: By mutual... -This is 19... Yeah.

-Wow. -1954.

NARRATOR: According to the Majestic-12 documents,

the men who made up this group

and were in communication with beings from other worlds

included top scientists, government officials

and high-ranking military personnel.

In 1954, President Eisenhower,

uh, supposedly met with, uh, extraterrestrials

in Palm Springs at Edwards Air Force Base,

otherwise known as Muroc.

And there's a lot of whistleblower testimony

about his presence, um, at this meeting.

He was just as probably alarmed or shocked as anybody,

you know, realizing the larger picture.

With all the whistleblower testimony

about these different encounters,

I pretty much side on the fact that he-he did make contact.

One of the interesting members of MJ-12

was Doctor-- Professor-- Donald Menzel...

...who actually had written three books

on the subject

that had the general flavor of-of debunking it.

And I read this book, and I said,

"Here's a guy who's allegedly a Ph.D. in physics,

but he's obviously ignoring the data."

I'm highly confident that Dr. Menzel

was working in a counterintelligence mode.

He was intentionally trying to deceive the public

that there was nothing to it.

So, I personally met him, shook hands with him

and carefully avoided any discussion of UFOs.

And he knew perfectly well

that we had recovered a number of crashed flying saucers.

Let's go to one of these

that is so important,

to July 4, 1947.

-Look, see those all cap letters, "IPU"? -Mm-hmm.

Date: 04 July '47.

What was happening that we know?

-Roswell. -Exactly.

IPU stands for Interplanetary Phenomena Unit?

That's it.

And this is, "Directive to Lieutenant General Twining

-from Dwight Eisenhower." -Eisenhower. Wow.

-In the general chain of command. -Uh-huh.

And what he's doing is, "You will proceed

"to the White Sands Proving Ground Command Center

"without delay for the purpose of making an appraisal

"of the reported unidentified objects

being kept there."

This is not only disclosure.

It's confirmation.

I mean, that's incredibly fascinating to me.

And in many ways, Giorgio,

this is one of the more astounding documents

because this is General Nathan Twining,

and what is he talking about?

"Upon examination of the interior of the craft,

"a compartment exhibiting a possible atomic engine

"was discovered.

At least, this is the opinion of Dr. Oppenheimer."

Robert Oppenheimer,

the one who made the bomb.

NARRATOR: Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer

is often credited

as being the father of the atomic bomb

for his work on the Manhattan Project.

"A possibility exists that part of the craft itself

"comprises the propulsion system,

"thus allowing the reactor to function as a heat exchanger

"and permitting the storage of energy

into a substance for later use."

And what they mean,

we all today have a bit of an idea

that you could have an entire craft

be both the propulsion system, the craft system.

It might even be a, uh, point to point,

go through dimensions and timelines in the UFO.

That's 21st century discussion.

This is back in the week of the discovery

of the bodies and the craft.

-I mean, that-- this is sensational. -It is.

NARRATOR: If the Majestic-12 documents provide proof

that the United States government

employed its top scientists

to examine and reverse-engineer extraterrestrial craft,

how have they been able to keep this hidden

from the public for all these years?

Perhaps further clues can be found

by examining the death

of the first man allegedly appointed

to lead the Majestic-12,

as well as the assassination

of John F. Kennedy.

NARRATOR: Bethesda, Maryland.

May 22, 1949.

James Forrestal,

the first United States Secretary of Defense,

is found dead at the naval hospital.

He reportedly fell from a 16th floor window

after being committed for depression.

His death was ruled a suicide,

but many have challenged this conclusion

and believe Forrestal was assassinated

because he was threatening to go public

with information he had acquired

about an extraterrestrial presence on Earth.

James Forrestal was one of the most significant

military figures in the history of the United States.

He was Secretary of the Navy during and after World War II.

He was eventually appointed

the very first Secretary of Defense of the United States,

and he visited all of these

secret German technology facilities

after the war.

He went to Peenemunde,

he went to Mittelwerk,

he went to the different places

where they had developed the V-2.

And he also visited this really interesting

so-called "rubber plant" in Silesia,

which is where the Germans were supposedly developing

the very, very high technology, super hyperphysics weapons

and weapon systems, like flying saucers.

Some believe that during the Second World War,

James Forrestal discovered

that the Nazis had acquired extraterrestrial technology.

Perhaps not coincidentally,

they say that after the war,

President Truman put Forrestal in charge

of a secret investigation into all this,

heading up an organization

known as Majestic-12 or MJ-12.

CADDY: There's a lot of controversy

about Secretary Forrestal's final years.

He was on MJ-12.

He became familiar what was transpiring

with the alien presence.

And there's always been a question:

was this a suicide?

Was he pushed?

What really happened?

BARA: Some people say that Forrestal was determined

to tell the American public about what he had seen

regarding the alien presence,

the alien influence on Nazi technology,

and that when he wanted to go public with this,

that they created a fake backstory

of him being despondent

and murdered him by literally throwing him

out of the 16th floor window of the hospital facility

he had been imprisoned in.

NARRATOR: Is it possible

that James Forrestal was silenced

to keep him from revealing the truth

about an alien presence here on Earth?

There was a release of another--

I'm going to say shocking-- document.

NARRATOR: As extraordinary as the notion

of Forrestal's assassination may seem,

ancient astronaut theorists propose

that one of the Majestic-12 documents

points to the assassination

of an even higher-level government official.

HOWE: The story is that it was supposed to have been destroyed,

and somebody put it in a fireplace,

and that another person pulled it out.

So what does it say?

"Top Secret MJ-12, Central Intelligence Agency.

"From: Director of...

Central Intelligence Agency (MJ-1)."

Who was that? That was Allen Dulles.

'60 to '63, under Kennedy.

Okay. "You must know

"Lancer has made some inquiries

regarding our activities."

And Lancer, during the Kennedy administration,

was the secret service name for the president.

This is the head of the CIA, MJ-1...

Going against the president's wishes of finding out more.

HOWE: "Which we cannot allow.

"Please submit your views no later than October."

If that was in '63,

he was dead one month later in Dallas.

And, in fact, Bob Wood told me--

this was in a report I did--

"Linda, as far as I know, this burned memo is the only document

"that I've ever heard anyone claim could be the authorization

to kill President John F. Kennedy."

(Tsoukalos gasps)

I mean, that's an extraordinary claim.

It's, uh, absolutely fascinating,

and unlike anything I've ever heard before.

The inference of the scorched memo is that

if JFK keeps doing what he's doing,

that he, maybe, is a problem.

It identifies a number of actions that could be taken.

One of which, the last one,

implies that if Washington does not respond

to what they want done, it should be wet.

And that's the language I think the Soviets started to use

for-for assassination, because "wet" is associated with blood.

NARRATOR: If the Majestic-12 documents are indeed authentic,

are they proof that not only were members

of the United States government aware of--

and in contact with--

extraterrestrial beings,

but also that they would go to any length

to keep this information hidden from the public?

Former Washington, D.C. attorney Douglas Caddy

was a close friend of E. Howard Hunt,

who he represented when Hunt was found to be

at the center of the Watergate scandal in 1972.

Hunt was an officer in the CIA

when John F. Kennedy was president.

Caddy claims that he asked Howard Hunt

about the assassination one night

and received a shocking answer.

The last time I saw Howard Hunt was in 1975.

(phone rings)

He called me and said he'd like to have dinner.

So the dinner was finished, we went out to the sidewalk.

And I thought, "Well this may be the last time I'll see Howard.

He's going away and I'm moving from Washington."

And so, for my own curiosity, I said to Howard,

"Why was John Kennedy assassinated?

CADDY: And he said, "John Kennedy was assassinated

"because he was about to give our most vital secret

to the Soviet Union."

And I said, "Our most vital secret?"

I said, "What could that be?"

He leaned forward and-and looked me in the eyes

and he said, "The alien presence."

He shook my hand and walked away.

NARRATOR: If the stories about the Majestic-12 are true,

and those involved with the top-secret group

were ready to take such drastic measures

to keep its existence hidden,

was it ever discontinued?

Do you think that MJ-12

is still in existence today?

Well, what I've been told

is that they have changed the letters

and the numbers,

probably more than once.

So it's the same idea,

it's the same control, same files,

same archives, same power.

If you look at what has happened in the last 60 years,

it's really possible that more decisions have been made

in a side of our government because of this subject--

E.T.s and technology--

than any of us would ever know.

NARRATOR: July 20, 1969.

Six years after President Kennedy's assassination,

American astronauts Neil Armstrong

and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin

become the first humans to land on the Moon.

ARMSTRONG: That's one small step for man,

one giant leap for mankind.

NARRATOR: But there are some who believe

this was not the first moon landing,

and that other highly-classified missions preceded it.

In 2014, declassified documents

revealed that the United States had a secret project underway

in 1959

to not just reach the Moon,

but even establish military bases there

by 1965.

-We choose to go to the Moon... -BARA: When President Kennedy

said we're gonna go to the Moon,

there were many, many proposals on the table.

One of them was called Project Horizon.

And the idea behind Project Horizon

was that we would launch more than 140 rockets

up into low-Earth orbit,

assemble basically empty fuel containers--

large tubes-- send them to the Moon,

soft-land them on the Moon and assemble them together

into a permanent Moon base

that would start with about 20 astronauts,

and eventually be populated by hundreds.

The idea being that we would establish a permanent

military presence on the surface of the Moon.

NARRATOR: Project Horizon was the brainchild

of Wernher von Braun, the former Nazi rocket scientist

whose multi-stage rocket design

is still used today.

And who, according to the Majestic-12 documents,

was one of the men that worked on reverse engineering

the extraterrestrial craft

that crashed in Roswell, New Mexico.

In addition to establishing bases on the Moon,

Wernher von Braun had another goal:

to reach Mars.

He considered this to be achievable

even as far back the 1960s.

And there are those who claim that the United States,

and other nations,

have bases there right now.

One of the first alleged missions to Mars

was a project called Solar Warden.

At least one person, Corey Goode,

has come forward to say that he was recruited

for Project Solar Warden.

According to Corey, he was targeted

because his grandfather was involved

in another secret project that took place

around the same time MJ-12

was allegedly formed: Project Whitecoat.

GOODE: Project Whitecoat was set up during World War II.

Officially, they were taking soldiers

and experimenting on them with viruses.

Well, it turns out that

our government was working with genetics

far before we supposedly discovered them in the '50s.

Genetics were being manipulated,

and genetic changes

were being delivered to people through viruses.

My grandfather happened to be one of these participants.

They were keeping an eye on my lineage

because of this program.

And they brought me into this training program

that would last from the age of about six-years-old

to about 17-years-old,

when I was officially drafted into Solar Warden.

Very soon after joining the space program,

I was assigned to a research vessel.

I was doing communications.

A subprogram that I was a part of in the beginning was called

the Intruder Intercept and Interrogation Program.

Different beings were living on our planet amongst us,

and the mandate was to capture these beings,

interrogate them, and find out why they were here.

The United States secret space program--

its roots actually go back to Nazi Germany.

A lot of the scientists that we obtained

in Operation Paperclip

were in contact with the breakaway society

that had already developed spacecraft.

Currently, there are at least three dozen nations involved.

Some of the countries involved right now

are countries like Estonia,

the Ukraine, and, uh, of course, we have the larger players:

the United States, China, Germany, Russia.

Britain is also a large player in the secret space program.

DAVID WILCOCK: If this seems impossible to believe,

remember that the Manhattan Project

was an operation for almost ten years

in the development of the nuclear bomb.

It employed over 130,000 people.

Not one person came forward

with information about what they were working on.

That proves that the government can keep a secret.

NARRATOR: Could there really be over 30 different countries

with secret operations in outer space...

...working at bases on both the Moon and Mars?

According to Corey Goode,

not only is this true,

but the first members of these secret space programs

found that when they reached these celestial bodies,

they were not the first visitors.

GOODE: When the secret space program began to travel

to other bodies in our solar system,

they were finding ancient structures.

They quickly dubbed the people

that built these structures "the ancient builder race."

GOODE: What our astronauts were mainly finding

were structures that had been destroyed a long time ago,

and they were very interesting structures.

Some of them were floating off of the ground

and were mostly complete.

Others were completely shattered.

BARA: You can find all the proof you want

that there are ancient

extraterrestrial inhabitations of the planet Mars

and our own Moon just by looking at the NASA pictures.

You'll see pyramids, you'll see bridges.

And you see all kinds of so-called rocks

that do not appear to be rocks.

I have seen numerous images of what appear to be structures

that may or may not be active, and may or may not be inhabited.

CHILDRESS: Perhaps we are now on both the Moon

and Mars with brand-new

space installations that are using

ancient structures that were built thousands

and even millions of years ago.

NARRATOR: Could Corey Goode's incredible claims be true?

Is Project Solar Warden

the product of plans put in motion by the Majestic-12

decades ago to deal with an extraterrestrial presence

in our solar system?

Nearly 20 years after the first Majestic-12 documents surfaced,

a computer hacker named Gary McKinnon

claimed to have discovered the strongest evidence yet

to support their authenticity

within the secret files of NASA.

NARRATOR: London, England.

March 19, 2002.

At 8:00 a.m.,

the National High Tech Crime Unit

arrives at the home of 34-year-old

Scottish systems administrator Gary McKinnon.

They are there to arrest him

on behalf of the United States Justice Department and NASA.

For the past year,

McKinnon has been hacking into top secret Pentagon

and NASA computers.

What he uncovered were files that he claims

could provide undeniable proof that the Majestic-12,

and the secret space program it gave rise to,

truly exist.

Among the things I found,

there was an Excel spreadsheet entitled

"Non-Terrestrial Officers,"

which I took to be

a space-going fleet made of human personnel, not aliens.

It did list their names, and I couldn't find them

on the Internet at the time.

There was also a list of ships.

I googled the ship names and there were no matches,

so I knew they weren't oceangoing vessels.

Interestingly, some of the names of these ships

were people allegedly involved in Majestic-12.

If there was a secret space program,

and if it has anything to do with back engineering

crashed alien spacecraft,

then those MJ-12 people are exactly the ones

you would expect to find name-checked in this way.

NARRATOR: According to McKinnon,

the most shocking file he came across was on a computer

at NASA's Johnson Space Center.

Within a folder labeled "unfiltered," he spotted

a thumbnail image of a high-res NASA satellite photo,

which appeared to depict an unusual spacecraft.

I double-clicked on this image,

and it was coming down very slowly.

But I could see this, um, tubular--

a classic cigar-shaped UFO, uh, with these kind of

geodesic domes, like half a golf ball

stuck on top and underneath.

And, um, I'm just amazed, because I've found real evidence

of what I thought was a UFO,

although it could have been a secret spaceship; who knows?

Uh, but there it was in front of me, coming down the screen.

And then, suddenly I saw the mouse move across the screen,

right-click the "LAN" icon, and choose "disconnect,"

and lost the chance to fully transfer the photo

to my machine.

So it was a eureka moment, but also, "Ah, they got me."

NARRATOR: Did Gary McKinnon discover

a NASA image of an alien craft, or something else?

WOOD: The secrecy associated with MJ-12, in my judgment,

has permitted us to spend a huge amount of money--

trillions of dollars.

My more recent conclusion is that some of

the trillions of dollars of money

have been used to take the technology we have discovered

and build gravity-control devices that we would see

sometimes as UFOs.

So, if you look in the sky now,

in my opinion, it's a 50-50 chance

that it's ours, versus theirs.

NARRATOR: According to Corey Goode,

what Gary McKinnon discovered in the top secret Pentagon

and NASA files is in line with his own experiences.

Gary ended up being the first person

to uncover tangible proof of these programs

through his hacking.

Interestingly enough, the information he obtained

on the different types of spacecraft,

the non-terrestrial officers,

the fleet-to-fleet transfers--

all of this perfectly coincided with Project Solar Warden.

NARRATOR: Corey claims that the Majestic-12 documents

from the 1950s, which reveal that interactions

were taking place between government officials

and numerous alien species are accurate as well.

Currently, in the secret space programs,

we've been dealing with approximately 60 different

non-terrestrial groups that have come here,

and some of those groups are interacting with the governments

of the world right now.

NARRATOR: If there really are both alien

and human factions operating throughout our solar system,

how much longer can it be kept hidden from the public?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

recent government statements reveal

that the truth will soon be disclosed.

NARRATOR: New Delhi, India.

January 2010.

The India space program announces plans

for their first manned trip to the Moon.

China, Russia and the United States

all have similar plans in the works.

There are also numerous planned missions to Mars

currently in development

by both private and public organizations.

In the midst of this new fervor for space exploration,

on April 7, 2015,

NASA chief scientist, Ellen Stofan,

makes a bold statement concerning the discovery

of extraterrestrial life.

I think we're gonna have strong indications

of life beyond Earth within a decade.

And I think we're gonna have definitive evidence

within 20 to 30 years.

When we look at that statement,

and we compare it with the new lunar

and Martian missions that are coming up...

...we have reason to believe that we may be getting prepared,

drip by drip, for an open public acknowledgement

of the reality of a secret space program

that has been in existence

throughout much of the 20th century,

and only now is going to be revealed to us.

WOOD: I don't think MJ-12 is the only thing

that's been kept secret.

And I think the disclosure process needs to go

way beyond MJ-12,

because it's just a tiny portion

of the secrets that this country lives in and with.

And my goal is to find the truth.

I don't care what the truth is, I want to find the truth.

Once this knowledge is revealed to us,

it will fundamentally propel us into a Star Trek age.

Almost overnight, we will have the ability to travel

throughout our solar system,

perhaps travel outside our solar system.

We will learn that we are not alone in the universe.

I can understand that many will have a problem

believing me, and all I can say is that

I've had these experiences, I know them to be true,

and one of these days, this information will be revealed,

and you will know it to be true.

NARRATOR: Could there really be a government agency

known as the Majestic-12?

And if so,

is it helping the United States,

in league with other nations, to pave the way

for future communications between mankind

and its extraterrestrial counterparts?

According to numerous top secret documents,

the answer is a profound "yes."

And the ultimate proof may very well be waiting for us

when we venture back to the stars

and begin the next phase in human evolution--

the colonization of other planets.
