-(bellowing)
-TRAVIS: Something's
got the cows going nuts.
and may contain
mature subject matter.

-KANDUS: Holy sh...
-THOMAS: What the hell?

-BRANDON: Whoa, this is crazy.
-KANDUS: Yeah.

TRAVIS:
Due west is due north right now.

So, your compass reading
is way off.

TRAVIS:
There is a phenomena
taking place right now.

We need to get instruments
above the ranch so we can get

more data on this phenomena.

There is something underneath us
according to the radar.

-CAMERON: Something
is tracking us.
-BRYANT: We have no visual

on anything
beneath the aircraft.

TRAVIS:
Dude, I'm getting chills.

Something is following us.

What the hell is under us?

NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years,
the federal government

tried to find answers
and failed.

Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts
has taken over.

They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

ERIK:
Brandon, Cameron.

BRANDON: Hey, greetings
gentlemen. How are you?

-TRAVIS: Doing well.
-ERIK: Doing quite well.

So, thanks for joining us,
Brandon.

We really appreciate you
letting us use

the helicopter
as a test platform.

We've talked a lot about
this 5,000-foot, uh, phenomenon

above the, uh, above the mesa.

TRAVIS:
We believe that we're

zeroing in on a spot that might
be a source

for all the bizarre phenomena

that happens
on Skinwalker Ranch.

It's a zone about 5,000 feet
above the ground,

which is actually 10,000 feet
above sea level,

and we know it as the triangle.

Right over there, you could see
something open up in the sky.

TRAVIS:
It's an area that we've
not only heard stories

from past residents like members
of the Sherman family...

There was a peach-colored object
up there.

And it went straight up
and that hole closed.

...but also where our own
experiments have repeatedly

measured high levels
of radiation

and stimulated the appearance

of unidentified
aerial phenomena, or UAP.

Ignition.

-Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.
-We got something,
we got something!

We go something right here.

So now, Erik and I
want to conduct

the riskiest and most focused
experiment yet

to figure out just
what could be up there

using Brandon's helicopter.

What we would like to do
is get some instrumentation

that we could attach
to the exterior, uh,

whether the skids
or somewhere on the helicopter,

and then approach this position
that's above the ranch

and-and take measurements.

And as far as your
instrumentation goes,

we need to make sure

that it doesn't interfere
with the helicopter.

Obviously as a pilot, uh,
safety is my number-one goal.

It's the asset we are trying
to protect,

but more importantly,
the people inside.

We're-we're really talking about
a minimal equipment set here.

We're talking about
spectrum analyzer, uh,

-perhaps the TriField meter...
-Uh, the gamma ray detection.

Definitely a gamma ray detector.
Nothing heavy.

Nothing that broadcasts
a signal that would interfere

with anything
aboard the aircraft.

How do you feel about that,
Brandon?

Uh, the only way that
we can really understand

what is happening
in the airspace

is by getting up in the air.

As long as we're utilizing
proper health

and safety protocols,
and as long as Cameron

is carefully monitoring
everything happening,

um, I'm cautiously supportive
of this measure.

TRAVIS:
The weather is about to turn
really cold and really harsh

here in Northern Utah.

So, this is our last opportunity
this year

to make any major breakthroughs.

And after everything
we've seen and done this year,

I think it's worth the effort

to help the team
get some answers.

If at any time
during the mission,

I feel uneasy or the team
feels uneasy

or we're seeing something
that we're not comfortable with,

we're going to shut that down.

-Oh, absolutely.
Cameron, at any point...
-Yeah. Yeah.

...you, being the-the captain
in charge of the vehicle,

uh, it's your--
it's always your call,

and a-- that's the only way
it could be.

If we're good with that,
we have that understanding

ahead of time, uh, I have,
I have no problem with this.

I think it's-it's
the next logical step

to finding out what's, uh,
going on up there.

That sounds great.
Thank you very much.

Uh, wh-- Erik and I will
get together

and get the instrument
package ready,

and as soon as you guys
are, uh, able

to fly out here and instrument
it, we'll do the test.

Excellent. I look forward to it.

I look forward
to working with you.

-Okay.
-Well, we'll get to work.

Let's make it count.

-THOMAS: Thanks, guys.
-ERIK: Thanks, guys.

ERIK:
I'm gonna sign off now.

-Well, he's here.
-Yeah.

BRYANT:
I don't know what to expect
from this helicopter experiment.

I'm all for furthering
the investigation here,

but it does make me nervous
when we have

these sorts of experiments
that can, ultimately,

if they go wrong,
cost someone their life.

And so, we need
to do things very carefully,

but also get the data
that we need

to hopefully get some answers.

So, we'll see what happens.

Hey, Captain.

-Hey, Dragon, how are you?
-How are you doing?

Good to see you.

-Dr. Taylor.
-Man, how you doing?

Great to see you, man.

-Good to see you.
-Yeah.

-Cameron, good to see you again.
-Erik. Thomas.

-Hey, Cameron.
-Good to see you, gentlemen.

So, uh, what we got--
what we want to do

is go to three altitudes.

Our big, big peak
that we want to get to

is 5,000 feet above the triangle
spot down here on the ranch.

So, in the measures
that you're comfortable with

and accustomed to using,
we're talking about

7,000 feet above sea level,
8,500 feet above sea level.

CAMERON:
With the top altitude being

-10,000 feet above sea level.
-Barely 10,000 feet

-above sea level, right?
-Okay.

ERIK:
Cameron Fugal has agreed
to take us

to the target altitude
incrementally.

We'll be flying
at different altitudes

and at different radii
from the center point

above the triangle.

On this flight path we will be
taking measurements

and data-logging using
the gamma ray detector

or Geiger counter, as well
as the RF spectrum analyzer.

What we're hoping to do
is to find

some support for the idea
that there's something going on,

a focal point or an energy
source above the mesa.

All right, well then, uh,
I'll grab the stuff.

Thomas, if you and, uh--
Cameron, you--

we'll walk out there
and you'll show us underneath

-the helicopter
where we can hook stuff up.
-Excellent.

-Perfect. All right.
-All right.

TRAVIS:
Three weeks ago,
while we were drilling

at the triangle,
looking for mysterious

underground structures
or objects...

Hey, guys. Look at that.

...we suddenly detected
massive energy spikes

on our spectrum analyzer.

So, the Bessie was right
over here, right? The cow?

And at the same time,
out in the east field

where the cow died last year,
we detected high levels

of gamma rays...

We just jumped up
above 20 millirem per hour.

...which are even more powerful
and possibly dangerous X-rays.

So, we mounted
a spectrum analyzer

and a gamma ray detector
to the helicopter

to see if
the 10,000-foot-high zone

might not only be the source
for all the UAP phenomena,

but also all these potentially
dangerous energy spikes.

Guys, we'll jump in

-and start the experiment.
-All right.

-Good luck, guys.
-All right.

-Thank you.
-See you in a few.

All right, are we ready?

Yep.

Let's see if we can get them
on the transponder, I guess.

The triangle is right
in front of us.

CAMERON:
Uh, just approaching 7,000 feet,

and we should be
approaching a point

for the first turn to the west.

BRYANT:
Copy you. We are standing by

watching you,
we have a visual on you

and we will watch
the flight transponder.

While Thomas and I are on
the ground, we are looking

at the flight transponder
data so we can see exactly

where the helicopter is,
and we can match that up

with a map that Erik
has given us

of these rings of height
and distance

that he wants to
take measurements with.

So, Cameron has outfitted us
with a transponder

that we can communicate directly
with the helicopter

while they're in flight.

So, they can be at
the exact spots on the map

that Erik's looking
to get the data from.

You guys are just approaching
the six o'clock location.

-Erik, uh, six o'clock position
right here.
-ERIK: All right.

-All right?
-CAMERON: Yeah.

-ERIK: No change, really.
We're at six.
-Okay.

At what altitude
do you show us at?

I am showing you
right about 7,000, varying

between 6,995
and just over 7,000,

so you're in a good spot.

We're at three o'clock position
now, Erik.

-Okay.
-CAMERON: Yeah, confirm,
three o'clock position's

what we show now: 7,000.

Three o'clock now.

ERIK:
Okay, So that's-that's
all the data points...

...on the outside ring.

At this altitude.

-Are we good?
-Yeah.

TRAVIS:
So, why don't we go now
to the next altitude?

-Okay.
-So we're going to 8,500 feet
above sea level.

Yeah, you m-- and then go back
out to the outer ring.

Approaching six o'clock

in three, two, six o'clock.

We are right at 2,500.
That's perfect.

All right, I've got
the six o'clock position

-at 2,500-foot radius.
-(high-pitched beep)

So, I'm showing radar altimeter.

Showing we're only 40 feet above
the ground right now.

That's not good.

Cameron, did I understand
you correctly,

that your altimeter was showing
40 feet above the ground?

That was what that beeping--
I don't know if you heard

-the beep.
-TRAVIS: Yeah, I did-- I-I did.

That was a...
that's a little bit disturbing.

So something could be under us?

We keep having this indication
that something is just below us.

Erik, we had a slight spike in
the gammas there for a second.

I don't know if I feel
so good about this.

I don't know what's going on.

TRAVIS:
Dude, I'm getting chills.

It's like it's getting
closer to us.

-S-Something is following us.
-What the hell is under us?

(high-pitched beep)

Whoa, weird.

CAMERON:
So something could be under us?

40-something feet under us.

It showed something under us,
40 feet below us.

What the hell is 40 feet
under us? I don't get it.

-Air.
-Right.

Holy crap.

CAMERON:
Hey, uh,
while you're down there,

we've got the radar altimeter
show that something

was below us--
Here it goes again.

Something showing
50 feet underneath us,

and then it comes and goes.

Uh, do you see anything?

Nothing beneath you
transponding at this time.

Thomas is currently looking
with binoculars

for anything beneath you.

They're talking about seeing
something tracking them

on the radar below
the helicopter.

I don't know exactly
what that means,

but we're not seeing anything.

So, why don't we go now
to the next altitude?

So, we are going to 8,500 feet
above sea level.

Looks like we're just tight
around the triangle now.

(high-pitched beep)

We keep having this indication
that something's just below us.

Okay. Copy that.

We will keep our eyes open.
We're watching.

We have no visual on anything
beneath the aircraft.

Erik, we had a slight spike in
the gammas there for a second.

-On your dosimeter?
-Yep.

TRAVIS:
It's back to normal now
but it was a slight spike.

Wow. Okay.

CAMERON:
Should be on point now
for just exactly north, so...

-Got it. 12 o'clock.
-12 o'clock?

ERIK:
Got it.

I've got all the data points
now for the radius.

CAMERON:
All right, uh, Dragon.

We're all done here at 8,500.

We're moving on up to ten.

Okay. Copy that.

Keep an eye out for whatever
that was underneath you.

I'll be curious to see
if it shows up

when you're at
10,000 feet as well.

CAMERON:
So, we're now climbing
up to 10,000 feet.

(high-pitched beep)

TRAVIS:
Yep, there it goes again,
right there.

All right,
so this is a video diary.

Uh, I'm seeing the radar
on the helicopter.

-We're at 9,500 feet GPS.
-CAMERON: Oh, there's 40 feet.

And there's something
underneath us,

according to the radar
at 40 feet.

-Showing right underneath..
-39-- it's like it's getting
closer to us.

-TRAVIS: That's some...
-(high-pitched beep)

CAMERON:
It's picking up frequency
as we are climbing too,

as we are approaching
10,000 feet.

Guys, I... I don't know
if I feel so good about this.

-I don't know what's going on.
-Yeah, there's
something that's...

I don't feel good about
something being under us,

39, 40 feet underneath us.

CAMERON:
It's like it's following us,
whatever it is.

That is weird, Cameron.

Have you ever seen something...

-No.
-...chasing you like that?

-No.
-And I'm again on the high end

-of the gamma readings.
-TRAVIS: You are?

-Yeah.
-You're getting
gamma ray readings?

-(high-pitched beep)
-Here it is again.

Guys, I feel like there's
something underneath us,

something is tracking us.

TRAVIS:
That's freaking me out
a little bit.

-Yeah, and it's constant.
-I mean, seriously,
freaking me out.

(high-pitched beep)

-It's staying with us
the whole time.
-TRAVIS: It's following us.

Yeah, it's following us.
I do a heading change,

and it's staying with us.

We're going 60 knots
ground speed,

and it has not left us.

-Dude, I'm getting, like,
chills from this.
-Yeah, I...

Yeah, I mean, we're moving
and something is following us.

I-I don't know that I feel
that comfortable with this.

-I'd like to call an abort.
-Yeah.

-Yeah, I-- Listen, I say we,
I say we-we go to the ground.
-Call it.

-Yeah.
-Yeah. That's-that's insane.

CAMERON:
Dragon, I'm not comfortable
with having something

showing up right
underneath the aircraft

and not knowing what it was.

Uh, we're going to abort
this mission and come back

for safety's sake before we can
get the rest of the readings

at 10,000 feet.

BRYANT:
Copy that, yes.
Please, come back safely.

We will wait to hear your report
when you get on the ground.

Thanks, Cameron.

Uh-- Roger.

I don't have any indications
that there's a source

of radiofrequency energy

at 5,000 feet above the ranch.

I don't have any support for
the idea of a gamma ray source.

What I do have are
unsettling indications

that we may not have been
alone up there.

I don't know
what to do with that.

I don't think any of us
know what to do with that.

-Uh, interesting flight.
-Oh, my goodness.

H-Have you ever seen
anything like that

in all the time you've flown?

-No.
-That's-- Me, either.

And I've flown as a payload
scientist on Gulfstreams

and other aircraft, you know,
looking at radar returns

and optical returns,
things like that.

I have never seen
anything follow

a vehicle like that,
that were...

So, I feel like one of the first
things I want to do

is I want to reach out
to Brandon and inform him

-of these events.
-Yeah.

ERIK:
Cameron, I-I love
to fly with you,

but I got to tell you,
this is one of those times

when I was relieved
to get back down on the ground.

CAMERON:
Yeah. Yeah, me, too.

TRAVIS:
Hey, Brandon. Are you there?

I'm with you. Hey, gentlemen.

-How are things going?
-So we, uh,

had some really
interesting events

just happen while we were
in the helicopter.

I'm gonna let the pilot
explain it first.

Well, we flew several circuits
around the-the spot of interest,

changing altitudes
and radius distances

away from-from the triangle,
as we call it.

And as we gained in altitude,
we had an anomaly

that I have no explanation for.

Uh, we had, uh,
indications on our,

what's called
the radar altimeter,

showing that there's
something underneath us.

And it stayed with us
to the point

that I wasn't comfortable
with the mission anymore

and we aborted the flight.

So, an object was tracking with
the helicopter right below you?

Well, the guys down
on the ground were watching us

with binoculars and they never
saw a physical object.

And we couldn't see it,
you know, out the windows

in the bottom of the helicopter.

So, whatever it was

was invisible
at least to the eye,

but apparently not to the radar.

That's crazy.

We changed headings,
we changed altitudes,

but as we got higher and closer
to the point of interest

at that altitude of 5,000 feet
above the surface,

uh, which we never got to,
it stayed constantly with us.

TRAVIS:
It's like something
was trying to tell us

don't go to that spot 5,000 feet
above the ranch.

It-it really was like something
was sc-- trying to scare us off.

That's nothing short
of disturbing.

Again, yet another
incredible experience

at Skinwalker Ranch.

I appreciate your efforts,
appreciate your focus.

And, uh, I need to get
out to the site.

I think it's important to pull
everyone together,

to really talk about next steps

and how do we process
all of this?

Right. Yep.

-Thank you, gentlemen.
-CAMERON: Talk to you later.

TRAVIS:
See you later.

TRAVIS: The cows, something's
got the cows going nuts.

THOMAS:
What the hell?

-Wow.
-KANDUS: Is there
something out there?

THOMAS:
Something spooked them.

TRAVIS:
The magnetic field
is about twice

what it normally is.

Oh, it's increasing
dramatically.

BRANDON: As I was
flying into the ranch today,

I knew that Erik and Dragon
had pulled together the team,

really, for the purpose
of reflecting

and reporting on all of the
events of the past few months.

Hey, good to see you, Tom.

What they have experienced,

what has been reported
and, frankly, the data

points to some really
extraordinary activity

that has never been seen before
not only at Skinwalker Ranch,

but also anywhere else
in the world.

Thank you for pulling
everyone together,

and it's good to see
our team assembled

for us to not only compare notes
but to-to really talk about

next steps and how
do we process all of this,

so we can focus
on what we've been seeing

and how to best proceed.

-Right.
-Yeah. Well,

you know, I'd like to hear
more about what happened

with the helicopter,
which has really disturbed me.

I'll bring up the first
of your videos.

-TRAVIS: Okay. Yep.
-And you can talk us through it.

So, yeah, here we go.
Now if you'll--

-Pause it first, Erik.
-Okay.

So, this is the bottom

left corner
of the instrument panel.

This is the radar altitude
to, uh, the ground.

This is to keep you
from flying into a mountain

or to, uh, think you're too, uh,

you're higher than you are
and to keep you from slamming

into the ground
when you're landing.

So, your lives depend on
the accuracy

-of this instrumentation.
-Absolutely.

Absolutely.
Especially if you're flying

and it's getting close
to dark or if it's cloudy.

You've got to have
this instrument working.

And I asked Cameron
about it and he said

he's never had it malfunction.

Okay? So, now play the video.

Now this is showing us
when it's working.

When you're under 2,000 feet,
this thing

is supposed to kick on
and say there's ground

2,000 feet below you
or whatever it is.

And it's working right there.

Yeah, what I find useful
about that is that, you know,

here we have a controlled case
in which we see

that the instrument is not
malfunctioning in general.

-It's doing its job.
-Yeah.

So now play the video.

Now stop it.

At this point, we were at about

3,500 feet above the surface.

You see this number,
we're getting 42 feet.

42 feet from a,
from the surface.

-Wow.
-The closest thing to us

was supposed to be
3,000 feet away,

and this is telling us
there's something

underneath the helicopter

42 feet away.

Go ahead and play it
the rest of the way, Erik.

And if you'll look,
it's moving-- whatever it is,

it's between 45 and 50 feet,
and then all--

and then it, then it goes away.

-BRANDON: Wow.
-Where'd it go?

And then, as we moved
closer to 5,000 feet,

at one point, it got
to, uh, 39 feet from us.

And that's when Cameron
finally said,

"All right, enough is enough,
we're getting out of here."

So, we were watching
the-the flight transponder data

because we were trying to map
things out for you,

so it showed your altitude
as well as anything

in the area and there was
absolutely nothing there.

THOMAS:
You know, we have seen a lot

of things-- uh,
aerial phenomena-- this year.

-Yeah.
-ERIK: Oh, yeah.

I'm still looking at some
of the footage

and finding additional artifacts

in that, in the, in the video.

-Mm-hmm.
-I see objects

a-appearing in the sky
or glinting in the sky,

and there are more events
of that kind

from the very same day.

-There are also...
-Is this a rocket day?

-Is that what
you're talking about?
-That's correct.

-Okay.
-So, we're talking about

things that appear in the sky

either to the south
or to the west.

ALLEN:
Ignition.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wait, what's this, right here?

-What's this? What's this?
-What's this?

TRAVIS:
We got something,
we got something!

Guys, we just had a UAP
appear and vanish.

I'm just gonna
let it play through.

I'm going to zoom in on it.

-BRANDON: Wow.
-We've been revisiting
some of our footage,

particularly from the day
we launched the rockets,

and indeed we are seeing
more than meets the eye.

Could I see some of the footage
that you collected?

I-I think that's what Erik's
pulling up now.

ERIK:
Right, so,

I'm gonna take us to, uh,
a time stamp

of 18:51:24 in this
particular sequence,

and you're going to see
a bright object that appears.

This is not one that we've,
uh, talked about before.

-So...
-BRYANT: I see it.

-KANDUS: Mm-hmm.
-The object,

-the object is right here.
-Yeah.

-TOM: Oh, yeah.
-BRYANT: That's crazy.

-KANDUS: Wow.
-ERIK: All right?

This is another one of those
that appears and disappears.

There is no contrail.

Wow.

ERIK:
And I think we found
as many as 13

from the very same day

in this relatively
small region of the sky.

-What?
-We have at any time

as many as six
persistent objects

and we have several other,
you know, flashing,

fleeting events
that are taking place.

These things that we're seeing
just appear and then go away.

And we don't see them
come in or go out.

They're just kind of there.

The fact that Erik
has identified

these additional UAP
that occurred

above the ranch
when we launched the rockets,

shows just how important
our experiments are out here.

We've now documented
three different types of UAP:

these glowing orb-like ones...

...the one that streaked
across the sky

earlier this year
after we dug at Homestead Two

and then the darker
flying objects.

One happened this year
after we conducted

our Tesla coil experiment
at the triangle area,

and the other appeared
last year when the cow died.

Now, we don't know
what these things are yet,

but clearly poking the nest has
continued to yield great data.

ERIK:
You know, we talk about things
like craft, you know,

flying in at incredible speeds.

So, you know,
the question I want to ask is,

is this evidence
of that sort of thing?

-I don't know
that I can answer that.
-(cows bellowing)

BRYANT:
Well, look at the cows.

TRAVIS:
Hey, look, the cows. Something's
got the cows going nuts.

Oh, my.

-Hey-- Look at that.
-THOMAS: Oh, wow.
-KANDUS: Holy sh...

TRAVIS:
That's right where
we dug that hole, too.

BRANDON:
Whoa.

-This is crazy.
-KANDUS: Yeah.

TRAVIS:
Due west is due north right now.

That should be where north
is pointing.

My compass is pointing that way.

Yeah, look at my north.

-Is yours off?
-190 degrees.

So your compass reading
is way off?

TRAVIS:
There is a phenomena taking
place right now.

-(cows bellowing)
-TRAVIS: Look at the cows.

-Something's
got the cows going nuts.
-THOMAS: What the hell?

ERIK:
We don't see that very often.

Wow. What the hell is going on?

THOMAS:
Something spooked them.

What in the world is going on?

Do you have instrumentation
with you?

BRYANT:
Kaleb's got a TriField meter.

Okay.

When the cows suddenly stampeded
away from the east field,

we couldn't tell
what spooked them.

But it was at the same area
where we detected

harmful gamma rays this year,

and also where the calf died
last year, at the same time

we captured a UAP
on our surveillance cameras.

-KALEB: What's going on there?
-BRYANT: I don't know.

TRAVIS:
That's really interesting.

The average magnetic field

is about twice
what it normally is.

ERIK:
What happens if you step
right off the porch?

That's a good-good question.

I'm gonna walk
towards the fence.

It increases.

Oh, it's increasing
dramatically.

All right.

The magnetic field on the ranch
was suddenly double

what it should be.

I-I just have no way,

scientifically, to explain
what in nature could cause that.

BRYANT:
That's crazy.

They were all piled up
right in the corner,

then suddenly, boom,
they took off running.

BRANDON: Are you picking up
anything, Kaleb?

-Nothing.
-Wow.

To kick up some dust,
it was something.

-BRYANT: Yeah.
-JIM: Oh, yeah.

So, Tom, Kandus,

you've been here 24-7,
seven days a week...

-Right.
-...here living in the ranch
house and monitoring the cattle.

Have you seen them
react that way?

-Never.
-Nope.

-Never.
-Not-not a single time.

You know, that area
is interesting

because they congregate there,

and that's also where, you know,

there was some reported
cattle mutilations.

And so we've been
studying that area

and we have cameras down there.

Well, the cow
that died suspiciously,

and that we're still studying,

-was not too far from here,
just steps.
-Yeah.

It was just up the fence line
from there.

TRAVIS:
That's right where we dug
that hole, too, guys.

-KANDUS: Yes.
-TOM: Mm-hmm.

Something's going on
on this area of the ranch.

It's a site where people
have witnessed orbs

and craft, and this is where
Kris Porritt pointed out

a cattle mutilation and told us
the really strange story.

All the female organs
were removed out of both cows.

I can't explain it.

And there was matted grass
where something heavy

had sat in these weeds
and made an impression.

I presume

that it was a-a spaceship.

We all thought Sheriff Porritt's
story was crazy,

but then, we took
a closer look at the area

and it led
to a really bizarre discovery.

-Y'all see it?
-KANDUS: I do.

It is a perfect circle
right here.

-Well, let's dig through
the middle of it.
-All right.

So, let's start digging.

So we brought on
a mini-excavator.

-I'd say that's good enough.
-And we started to dig

into the spot where Kris
pointed out in the ground.

-Look at that.
-Yeah.

TRAVIS:
It's literally pushing it away.

The ground is really magnetic
right there.

THOMAS:
It seems to be something

about the ground here
at Skinwalker Ranch,

that is at least
in contributing to part

to some of the strange things
that we're witnessing.

-TOM: Now they're going back.
-TRAVIS: Yeah, look at that.

Hey, hey, guys,
this is important right here.

Look at that.

Due west is-is due north
right now.

So, I mean, that should be
where north is pointing.

My compass is pointing that way.

BRANDON:
So your compass reading
is way off.

-TRAVIS: 90 degrees off.
-BRYANT: Yeah. Look at my north.

-Is yours off?
-190 degrees.

This is an old-school compass.

TRAVIS:
There is a phenomena
taking place right now.

So, it's not just affecting
your smartphone

and the electronics,
but it's affecting

-the analog instrument as well.
-Yeah, see, look.

So, north is that way

and it's pointing south.

-BRANDON: This is crazy.
-KANDUS: Yeah.

Three weeks ago,

the same kind of strange
magnetic shift happened

when we drilled
at the triangle area.

That is odd right there, dude.

There is an extraneous
magnetic field right here

messing my compass up.

Magnetic north has been shifted
by about five degrees.

It's showing north is that way.

It's pointing toward
where they're drilling.

KALEB:
Holy crap.

TRAVIS:
This kind of interference
is becoming

more and more common
on the ranch,

so I wonder if there could
be something connected

to the triangle area
that keeps causing

this magnetic phenomenon
to occur.

BRANDON:
What are you picking up, Erik?

So, I've got eyes on the herd.

I've been scanning the area
along the fence lines

and I don't see anything.

-You know, this...
-So, nothing visually showed up

-that would create
that disturbance?
-No.

-BRANDON: Okay. This is crazy.
-BRYANT: Well, Brandon,

we're anxious to get back
to showing you the rest of it.

Well, let's go back
and reconvene.

-Yeah.
-JIM: Okay.

BRANDON:
We saw strange

electromagnetic anomalies

coupled with camera surveillance
and instruments

that are taking readings
and recording with hard data

the reality of the anomalies
that are occurring on

the property, really all
combine to tell us

that what we are dealing with
at Skinwalker Ranch

is absolute reality.

It seems like the deeper we dig,

both figuratively and literally,
the more we scratch our heads,

and the more we seem to be
baffled by what we're observing.

-Yeah.
-For example,

I don't think that the rabbi

had any idea
what he was dealing with...

-No. No.
-...before he came
onto the property.

(reciting prayer in Hebrew)

TRAVIS:
In a bold attempt to stimulate

the legendary portal phenomena
at Homestead Two,

I invited Rabbi Ariel Tzadok
to come perform

an ancient
Hebrew ceremony.

What happened next
was incredible.

Suddenly the treetops
are super warm

and everything
underneath it got super cool.

Look right here.

It's creating this cold vortex
in the middle.

We measured a temperature vortex

that dropped by more
than 20 degrees.

That's usually indicative
of a presence.

These entities are always
described as being very cold.

Why does this location

continue to exhibit
phenomena and activity

that, frankly, you don't see
anywhere else on the planet?

At least in such
concentrated form.

Right.

You know, perhaps our
investigation is a testament

that we are seeing, truly,
something extraordinary

both above and below the ranch.

TRAVIS:
Well, I've been thinking about

the Uinta Basin here,
the ranch, what it looks like,

and why weird stuff
is happening here.

-Okay.
-Well, I do have a theory.

I want to make sure that we're
all prepared to face the risks.

Maybe we should take a step
back, or do we forge ahead?

Well, it does feel like
we've reached a crossroads.

-Right.
-I do think there's
some decisions to make.

TRAIVS: I've been thinking
about the Uinta Basin

and why weird stuff
is happening here.

Now, this is a heat map

of asteroid impacts on the
planet over millions of years.

My goal on Skinwalker Ranch
has always been to apply

the scientific method to study
the phenomena that happens here.

Well, what occurred during
Rabbi Tzadok's visit this year

led me to an intriguing
hypothesis.

Scientists have documented
numerous times

when massive asteroids
have struck the Earth...

...such as the one
that's believed to have

wiped out the dinosaurs

about 66 million years ago.

And if you'll look at this
ginormous asteroid impact,

the epicenter
is right on top of us,

right where we're sitting.

And that happened
ten million years ago.

-KANDUS: Hmm. Wow.
-I find that interesting.

TRAVIS:
All right, now,
go to the next slide, Erik.

So, this is a-a view
if you're looking

at the Uinta Basin from the
south and looking due north.

Now, this bottom graph
shows the topography,

and if you measure across
the bowl,

you get a very parabolic shape
that we noticed before

at other big sites
around the world.

So, this, if you look at
these sites around the world,

the geology, it looks like

the exact same kind
of bowl structure.

And guess what happened
at these sites?

Asteroid impacts.

-Wow.
-Now, what really intrigues me

as a scientist

is that some of these
asteroid impact events,

as they're known,
not only happened here

where Skinwalker Ranch is,

but also in other locations
around the world

where strange things
are believed by some

to have taken place.

Well, Erik, go to
the next slide.

Look at this spot.

Now, this is in, uh,
what we would call

modern-day Iraq,

uh, and right there
in the center,

a couple thousand years ago
was called Babylon.

And, uh, guess what happened
right about there,

according to the stories
in the Book of Ezekiel?

According to the Old Testament
of the Bible,

the prophet Ezekiel claimed to
have witnessed the sky open up

and clouds with flashes of light
appear before him.

And then it's written
that he saw a ball of fire,

glowing like bronze.

Well, that sounds very much
like the phenomena

we've seen and documented

on multiple occasions
right here on Skinwalker Ranch

over the last two years.

So, Ezekiel is there,
and suddenly, he sees

this thing coming in

on a pillar of smoke
and flame, uh, toward him.

And he describes it as having
four wheels within wheels

around it and-and each of them
had the likeness of an angel

that moved so fast he couldn't
tell if-- which angel was which.

Oh, wow.

TRAVIS:
I find that really interesting
that we have locations

that look almost identical
in geological

and physical structure,

and they had these unusual
things occurring there.

Many people believe that
what is written in the Bible

are merely just stories
that were passed down

through the generations.

But what if we are actually
documenting evidence

here on Skinwalker Ranch
that gives possible credence

to some of these stories?

No matter what the case is,
we still have to figure out,

utilizing the scientific method,
just what it is

that we're actually
encountering here.

-That's good stuff, Travis.
-KANDUS: Yeah.

-That's-that's
really interesting.
-It's incredible.

BRYANT:
And I can't help but think,

you know, you described
what you just did

about this dome-shaped thing
and how he said

it was God and these
were angels and things.

Well, that was what they had
in their knowledge base

to interpret things as, right?

-Yep.
-It's not, it's not unlike
what we've heard

with the Native Americans
in this area.

They didn't have the whole
modern-day technology narrative

that we do, so, you know,
could he be describing something

that, in this day and age,
we would call a craft or a UFO?

-Right.
-So I-I find that
really interesting.

KALEB:
Obviously, the question is,

what-what are we
really looking for?

'Cause I think we--
it's fair to say

that we've proven that
there is some kind of entity

or spirit or intelligence
out here

that we've had more and more
interactions with.

BRANDON:
Yes,

and I-I would love to continue

the next phase
of the investigation.

But I want to make sure
that we're all prepared

to face the risks.

Well, it does feel like
we've reached a crossroads.

I mean, we've-we've hit a point

that I-I do think there are
some decisions to make

as to how we move forward or...

you know, what that looks like.

BRANDON:
We have to ask ourselves...

...what can of worms,

what portal are we opening?

Maybe we should
take a step back,

or do we forge ahead?

BRANDON: Maybe we should
take a step back,

or do we forge ahead?

My personal, uh, opinion

is that fortune favors the bold.

-That's right.
-Yeah, absolutely.

TRAVIS:
We might have
an opportunity here

to learn something that humanity
hasn't been shown before,

and it seems to be
responding to things

we're doing more now than ever.

Maybe we're getting close to,
if not finding an answer,

at least finding a pathway
to the answer.

So, if we are to continue,
I'd like to hear,

you know, what you'd propose
the best course or path may be.

TRAVIS: It would be great
to get an aerostat

or-or a blimp
that we could station

above the triangle spot
with lots of instruments,

and leave it in that location

for a considerable
amount of time.

And I don't mean seconds.
I-I mean,

hours or days, maybe even,
uh, you know, weeks.

And-and if it's a-a vehicle that
can come up and down

and we can actually
physically go up with it

and do some experimentation
for over periods of time,

-we need to think about that.
-Well, I'd like to also engage

the intelligence community,
or-or people

that really have been
involved with monitoring

not only the airspace over our
country, but over our planet.

Because I-I don't believe
for one second

that a lot of what
we're observing here

has gone unnoticed.

-Mm.
-I think we truly are,

sitting at this table, pioneers,

at a time when we see

the emerging private space race

reaching for the next frontier.

You know, planetary exploration.

I think there's a good chance

that there are areas
right here in our own backyard

that are worthy of
investigation,

and they could probably
provide even more insight

into the nature of our universe

and whether we're alone or not.

Brandon's right about
all the new exploration

being conducted in space,

but it's even more than that.

Look at all the videos of UAP
that our own government

-has acknowledged.
-PILOT: Look at that thing.

TRAVIS:
There's new disclosures
on these phenomena

coming out all the time now.

And when you compare them
to what we've seen ourselves

on Skinwalker Ranch,

it's made me convinced

that we have the perfect
laboratory

for studying these phenomena

and figuring out
what they really are.

I am talking to some folks
that have a small satellite

that can use
a ground-penetrating technology

and look as far
as two kilometers

underneath the surface here,

and I'm hoping that they will
be willing to take data

over the ranch
as it passes over,

'cause they did tell me

that they will have flyovers
of the ranch.

Wow. That's-that's next level...

-That's exciting, yeah.
-...stuff.

But that's something
we can't do on a whim.

That's gonna take preparation.

At the end of the day, we all
have a personal choice to make.

This isn't gonna be
something that we figure out

in six months or a year.

This is something
that is gonna take time.

We've done so much,
in just the two years

that we've been here,
but you-- as we can see,

we have so much more to do.

-You want to know.
-I want to know.

I want to know.

And I feel that
we're gonna find that out.

Well, with that,
I want to thank everyone

for your sacrifice,

the time, all of the attention,

the dedication that you've had
to this project

and this investigation,

in service to the truth

-and really understanding...
-Thanks for trusting us.

Yeah, thanks
for inviting us to do it.

-It's amazing.
-BRANDON: Well,

thank you all and, uh,
we'll, uh...

we'll make that a wrap for now.

-KANDUS: Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Thanks, Brandon.

Brandon, appreciate it.

-Thank you.
-Thank you very much.

Thanks, guys.
Dragon, love you, buddy.

Love you, too.

ERIK:
I've got a lot of questions
that have yet to be answered.

-Pleasure and honor.
-Yeah, man.

ERIK:
Not only would I say that

we don't have all the answers,
not by a long shot,

but I'm not even sure that
we have all the methodologies

for getting those answers yet
in place here.

So, I'm nowhere near being
finished with my work here.

Tom, Godspeed, brother.

THOMAS:
When we reconvene
this investigation next summer,

we got to figure out
what's above us.

We got to figure out
what's at that 5,000-foot mark,

and somehow, we have got
to start better understanding

what's going on below us,
below ground.

KANDUS:
We're putting a puzzle
together here.

It's been a puzzle,
it's still a puzzle,

and it's an ongoing process.

TOM:
This really could be
just the tip of the iceberg.

There could be a lot
of information that could

blow the doors
off our investigation.

Y'all stay safe,
tell your families I said hey.

-All right. Safe travels.
-All right, man.

BRYANT:
It has been a long
and exhausting summer,

but it's also been amazing.

This place is dangerous
and it's special.

We have things
that we're looking into

that could give us
answers to questions

that have been asked
for eternity,

and we are all dedicated
to do whatever it takes

to further this investigation.

And I'm looking forward to what
the future brings for us.

TRAVIS:
As I'm driving off the ranch
and I'm watching it fade away

in the rearview mirror,
I'm looking back

on all the amazing things
we uncovered,

but I'm also looking forward
to the next cycle

of this investigation.

What else are we gonna find
in the future?

What crazy things,
what exciting things

are still left to be uncovered
here at Skinwalker Ranch?

It might change the world.

BRANDON: As we contemplate the
future at Skinwalker Ranch,

we all carefully consider
the gravity

of what lies ahead
and what we may yet reveal.

I think having the courage
to not only

take that step
into the darkness,

but also having the willingness
to reveal that which we discover

is something very special
and unprecedented,

and we look forward
to helping the public

take that journey along with us.
