Hey, I just saw
something zip by me.

MATTY:
Just when you thought

the mystery
of Skinwalker Ranch had

reached its peak...

There's a manufactured material
inside the mesa.

We got to get this thing tested.

MATTY:
...evidence of a much
deeper secret is revealed.

TRAVIS:
Are those holes getting bigger?

Now this stuff is fixing itself.

-BRANDON: What?
-TRAVIS: Holy crap.

MATTY:
After the stunning events
of the Season Six premiere...

TRAVIS:
That changes history

'cause it means somebody
put it in there somehow.

MATTY:
...I'm meeting with the team

for an exclusive
insider's take...

Are we dealing with something
truly physical out there?

MATTY:
...on what's to come...

I want to know
what the hell it is.

MATTY:
...and how it could
change the world

as we know it.

Could this be something to do
with a wormhole or a portal?

But it certainly
grabbed my attention.

♪ ♪

MATTY: Gentlemen...

what a way to kick off
Season Six.

Wow. I wanted to talk
about that piece of material

from inside the mesa

that might change the world,

and I want to get there,
and we will get there.

But, Brandon, I want to go to
you and get your general feeling

as to what this team has done.

This team has accomplished

what no other effort
has been able

to really see here
at Skinwalker Ranch, which is

leading us down paths that, uh,

that I think are going
to help us get some answers.

Amazing. The episode started off
with that mysterious object,

that piece of ceramic.

But then, you guys conducted
an incredible experiment

involving a helicopter.

What were you looking to find?

Well, all of our lidar
instruments are saying

there's something there

in this dome shape
around the ranch

centered at the triangle,
around 2,000 feet in radius.

ERIK: You know,
one interpretation, of course,

is that we're dealing
with something,

and it's out there, really,
uh, out in objective reality.

So we're exploring that.

This experiment, it's really
a mapping exercise. You know?

We're taking this aircraft
with instruments aboard

through the boundary
of whatever this thing is

that we're calling the dome.

We're collecting GPS data
from the helicopter...

...and we have different
forms of lidar,

which is a measurement technique

involving invisible laser light.

Also, as part of the experiment,
you know, we're monitoring

with our on-the-ground
spectrum analyzers.

And what happened?

ERIK:
We have evidence of that,

you know, 2,000 feet or so
radius structure in the data,

you know,
both in the space above,

and we're getting
anomalous returns below ground,

which should be impossible.

TRAVIS: When we put
the lidar points on a map,

they draw this bubble.

So, the lidar is not
designed to pick up things

underground and yet,
you're seeing data?

ERIK:
That's absolutely right.
It is not designed to do that.

TRAVIS:
You know, there's one
other piece that happened

during this experiment
that wasn't expected

or even part of the experiment.

And, Thomas, you saw it

with the hand communications,

walkies between the ground
and the helicopter.

Yeah.

Something is blocking
the radio signal.

Hey, guys. Be advised,

we have good strong comms
with him

until he gets directly
over the triangle

and then his transmission
becomes so garbled

we can't understand him.

We were watching
the helicopter's GPS location

as well as with our eyes

as it was flying back and forth.

And almost without exception,

when the helicopter would fly

through where we've identified
this boundary to be,

of this bubble, we would have
garbled communications

over the two-way radio.

Well, Cameron also
reported disruption

with the equipment
on the helicopter as well.

I think that's
important to know.

ERIK: We're still
at the stage of determining,

are we dealing with something
truly physical out there?

Or are we dealing with something

that is a structure in the data?

Both of those are
very interesting.

What could be putting that

into those instrument readings?

-Multiple instruments.
-Yes.

You know, I-I think that's
important you say that

'cause in my layman terms,

I'm thinking
of this dome or bubble,

and you think of,
you imagine things hitting it

like a force field or something.
You're saying that's not quite--

-We're not saying
it's not a force field.
-MATTY: Okay.

-We don't know
what the answer is.
-Fair enough. Yeah.

Right? All we know is
we have a bunch of data,

so there's something weird.

And we-we're trying

to narrow down the solution set
for whatever this is.

-Copy that.
-THOMAS: When I first saw

the-the dome or the bubble
as we're calling it,

uh, I was immediately
skeptical of it

but we're picking up
all kinds of anomalies,

both on the outside
as well as in the center.

I mean, Erik and Travis,
we've collected all kinds

of unbelievable data right there
in the center of the triangle.

You see the hole in the data

from the lidar scan
that OmniTeq did?

Not to mention

all the UAPs that we've captured
when we've been out there

doing work there
in the triangle.

It really makes me
start to wonder, you know,

could this be something to do
with a wormhole or a portal?

Yeah, and let me add to that
a little bit.

We're not saying that
there's a, uh, a wormhole

as we understand
from general relativity

out there at the triangle.

Everybody's seen
science fiction movies.

You know,
a gate opens up at one end

and then somewhere else
across the universe,

and you go in, it's a shortcut
to go extreme distances, right?

Well, if this were a wormhole
above the triangle, uh,

as we understand wormholes,

it takes huge amounts
of gravitational interactions,

it would be
destroying the planet.

-Right.
-TRAVIS: If it's that close.

This bubble is
something more exotic,

more-- or different,

or-or something
we don't understand yet.

ERIK:
Yeah, during this experiment,

we've got multiple datasets
from multiple equipment types

telling us that there's
just returns

and-and signals and things
that don't make sense,

they don't belong there.

What is the true secret
of Skinwalker Ranch?

Well, in the incredible
Season Six premiere,

the team may have come

one major step closer
to revealing the answer.

Gentlemen, when we last left,
we were talking about

this amazing experiment you did.

Erik, I wanted to talk about

some of these new anomalies

that you were seeing
in this experiment

and what that might have
told you in terms of a bubble.

ERIK:
Yeah. Yeah.

We're taking the aircraft
with instruments aboard,

traversing the space,
exploring the boundaries

and the region inside what we're
calling the dome or the bubble.

So, as we're painting
the space with data

from those GPS tracking devices

that are broadcasting
the location back to a receiver,

we're starting to see
a concentration

of these error points

right over the triangle.

CAMERON (over walkie):
Coming up over the triangle
at this time.

400 feet and nine knots.

ERIK:
Look, look.
It's happening again.

Yeah.

ERIK: Yet again,
it's like the data is

disappearing into a void.

The GPS data itself
is corrupted.

Especially in a region
right over the triangle,

forming, if you will,
a vertical structure,

but especially dense
at increasing altitude.

I would compare it
to an apple core.

Mm. You know what goes in
and out of apples, don't you?

Worms.

-(chuckles)
-Wormholes.

TRAVIS:
Well, if you look
at an eaten apple core,

you've got the tops of it,
it flares out, right?

It's like two funnels
stuck at the--

like an hourglass, for example.

And that's the way we draw
for illustration purposes

what an Einstein-Rosen Bridge,

or a wormhole would
actually look like.

Why is it that the GPS is
what's affected this way?

MATTY:
Erik, help me understand.

Are these gaps
or is this corrupted?

Is it disappearing?

ERIK:
That's a great question.

With some of the GPS readings,

we have the position itself
being misreported.

In other cases,
it is the corruption of the data

as it passes
through those regions.

And something is interfering
with the transmission

of that signal
back to the base station.

TRAVIS:
And so think about that.

There is this bubble
where data corruption occurs.

Why is it in that location,
why is it localized?

It's conglomerated,
it's consolidated

right in that one spot.

That gets my attention.

You know, Brandon,
I think of you

because you were watching this
kind of live-time happen,

-these anomalies happen
with the GPS.
-Right.

-What do you make of this?
-BRANDON: Well,
watching the data emerge,

real time,

as this entire experiment is
playing out, was exciting.

I mean, it was verification.

What we see is
true validation that there are

anomalies and there's
something focused

within that region
of the property.

And we're seeing it repeatedly.

And across multiple
scientific platforms.

If there's something messing
with GPS out here on the ranch,

I want to know
what the hell it is.

THOMAS:
You know, I have to think,
there's got to be

some type of intelligence
because it's affecting

an entire spectrum of,
of equipment and technologies.

TRAVIS:
And-and as far as I know,

humanity does not have
that capability yet.

To do what we're
describing here.

To-to manipulate all of these
different types of instruments.

And we even asked a,
uh, a super hacker

if he could reproduce
some of these things,

and-and he said that he--

that the technology
doesn't exist.

KALEB:
And that's what crazy.

Is it's multiple technologies
across the board.

BRANDON:
Typical jamming
and spoofing wouldn't

involve all of the other

-sensor equipment.
-TRAVIS: Oh, Lord, no.

ERIK:
Yeah, j-jamming
and spoofing is like

someone yelling, whereas
what we're seeing might be akin

to someone speaking.

-Right.
-MATTY: I wanted
you to say that.

And speaking multiple languages.

-There we go.
-MATTY: That's crazy.

Erik, you mentioned
jamming and spoofing.

-Yeah.
-MATTY: How about next level up,
mimicking?

Because with some of the signals

you were broadcasting
and then received,

it almost seemed like the ranch
was talking back to you.

Yeah, yeah, there did seem to be
a Polo to our Marco.

Uh, recall, we have this

1.2 gigahertz transmitter
on the aircraft.

And I'm tracking the position
of this, of this signal

coming from the transmitter,
and another signal shows up.

TRAVIS:
So check this out.

There is a signal
that is not Erik

right there by the signal
that Erik is sending.

That-- I don't know,
it don't make any sense.

KALEB:
No.

Erik and I specifically had
the conversation

on what frequency we needed
to set our transmitter up

to follow, and we wanted it
to be outside of anything

we'd ever seen happen
on the ranch before.

And we looked and we said,
"Well, 1.2 gigahertz,

"we've never seen
any signals coming from there.

"That's a wide-open spot.

Let's use that."

-So broadcast that.
-And-and so we did.

And on the-the first day
we do that,

it's like
something said, "Oh, hi."

And-and-and yelled hi
back at us, right?

We were pinging
and we got a ping back.

-Interesting.
-TRAVIS: So there was a signal--

-So, it wasn't you?
-It wasn't us.

We looked around for it.

And it seemed to be
moving in position.

That-That's about as, uh, good
as we could, we could say.

Well, this is
a little frightening.

That's next level.

The ranch or somebody or
something talking back to you.

Is it possible that someone
or something is

actually trying
to communicate with this team

while they're
conducting experiments?

Well, what we saw

in the incredible
Season Six premiere

just might justify
that question.

Gentlemen, we were
talking about this mysterious

1.2 gigahertz signal.

Not coming from you--

you've eliminated
that it's coming from you--

and during that time,
another anomaly happens.

You're talking about

what Pete Kelsey reported
having seen

-with the naked eye...
-MATTY: Yes.

...as he's flying,
uh, you know, with Cameron.

CAMERON (over walkie): Be
advised we are proceeding east.

We are at the west side
of the dome.

Copy that.

Hey, I just saw
something zip by me.

Whoa!

They were over
the Homestead Two area

and he reports seeing something

going across his field of view

west to east,
brighter than the surroundings.

No one else saw it at the time.
However,

on review of the video record,

we do see bright objects moving.

So we may actually have
a recording of what Pete saw.

And the video shows it
coming from about treetop high

over Homestead Two,

and in the direction
toward, uh, the triangle.

And that's pretty fascinating,
especially since,

you know, when Kaleb
and I were following

that 1.2 gigahertz signal,

it appeared to be coming
from that direction.

Now that's interesting.

So, this happened
during the time you're getting

that 1.2 gigahertz signal.

Could that be your source,
that UAP?

Or has been
any corroborative data

that every time you're
getting a signal like that,

you're seeing a UAP
at the same time,

could they be connected?

We have an abundance
of data showing

that electromagnetic effects

and signal effects occur,
oftentimes,

in tandem with UAP
or UFO activity registered

and documented
above the property.

Now that you've had
this 1.2 gigahertz signal,

that's-- I think it's something
interesting in the data

that shows that there's
something really going on.

MATTY:
Well, let's go back
to the bubble.

I mean, could this UAP have
gone through the bubble,

or come from the bubble,
for example,

because it's so anomalous there?

And this makes me think,
too, Travis,

of, again, that ring

or that donut-shaped anomaly

right in the center
of this bubble.

That could be the point,
the entry-exit point.

TRAVIS:
You know, and one of the things
we've often discussed,

are they coming or going, right?

And what is the mechanism?

Is it an interplay
between whatever is

at the triangle,
the anomaly in the middle?

Is this bubble, uh, maybe

protecting or working
as the transition area

for whatever
this doorway might be?

-Like in Stargate.
-Yeah.

-Remember the movie Stargate?
-Yeah, just like,
just like that.

-Yes, yes, yes.
-ERIK: But, you know,

think about why we're
conducting the experiment.

We're passing through this,
this boundary layer.

We're passing
through the apple core

that we've been talking about.

I'm wondering
whether what we've seen

in the 1.2 gigahertz as well

as this potential orb,
could be a response

to the helicopter, which is
producing quite a bit of,

of energy as it passes
through those regions.

-Amazing.
-ERIK: Very interesting
thoughts.

TRAVIS:
Well, and-and we know
that we get

responses from experiments,

or at least things
that appear to be responses,

like when we launched the rocket
and hit whatever the blob is.

Hey, check this out,
there's something on the camera.

KALEB:
Yeah, look at that.
Look at the light.

TRAVIS:
There is literally something.

We may be looking at the anomaly
for the first time, guys.

Burdette, could you play it
one more time?

I want to make sure I saw
what I think I just saw.

Right, now the rocket
is almost there.

And then the rocket
blows up right when it hits it!

Look at that.

So you can see it right there,

there's something in the sky.

KALEB: Its already
illuminated by the light.

TRAVIS:
Yeah. Oh, my God.

And that's right there
in the middle of the triangle,

right in the center
of this apple core.

And so, is the bubble
protecting whatever this is?

One thing is for sure,
we're seeing so many UAPs here,

and they're correlated
with the things

that we're doing
in our experiment.

So, you know,
it does lead you to believe

that there is
some type of connection.

TRAVIS:
And could the connection also be

to what that was
that we found that we showed

at the very beginning of that,
of this episode.

I'm very glad
you just brought that up,

because it's where this
season premiere kicked off.

It's what grabbed
the world's attention.

It's what certainly
grabbed my attention.

The revelations
in the Season Six premiere

of The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch suggest

there are many more
shocking things to come.

Gentlemen, you know,
I watched that footage.

If you've been following
this type of thing,

like I have since I was
about ten years old, ufology,

UAPs, all this, you hear
about strange materials.

What do we make of this ceramic?

Wow.

When I purchased the ranch,

I believed that there was
a natural explanation,

most likely, behind everything

that had been reported
for decades, if not millennia.

And what we have recovered
from the mesa is

definitely not natural.

ERIK:
So, so at this point, Matty,
we're looking at material

that is out
of its geologic context.

As you said, Brandon,
not natural.

What the hell is it doing there?

How did it get potentially

hundreds of feet into,
into the mesa?

It could be anything,

from the mundane to the exotic.

But here's the thing.

Even if it turns out
to be mundane,

it's still
a manufactured material.

-In the mesa.
-TRAVIS: And it was
so far into the mesa

that where we found it
suggested it was there

by natural soil deposition,

would have been
50 million years ago.

-(chuckles)
-TRAVIS: Right?
And so that changes history

one way or the other
'cause it means

somebody put it
in there somehow.

How did it get in there

and why does our history record
not show that?

Travis, you are as careful
as anyone I've ever met

to be very judicious

as far as what you say
'cause, you know,

you want to be scientific
about it, and I respect that.

But I want to ask you this, too.

Have you ever seen
a material act like that

under any sort of microscope?

I have not. And I've seen
many, uh, materials

under an electron microscope
like that,

and I haven't seen it do
that specific thing that we saw.

Look at
that surface right there.

-BRIAN: Zoomed in a little bit.
-ERIK: There we go.

I can see some
clearly defined holes.

Oh, yeah.

TRAVIS:
Are those holes getting bigger?

-ERIK: Yes, I think so.
-What?

-TRAVIS: It is, it's opening up.
-BRANDON: Yeah, yeah.

TRAVIS:
Holy crap, look at that.

Travis and I both are
familiar with the way

materials like ceramics behave
under electron microscopy

when we hit it with that beam.

You know, we do see
certain kinds of changes.

The changes we saw
with this material are not

like the changes
I've seen in other materials.

That's what got my interest.

-They're very unique.
-BRANDON: Yes.

I think it's important to note
that we are doing this

in coordination
with third-party experts,

not only relative
to the analysis of the material

but also the extraction
and the examination

with our archaeologists
and our drilling experts.

And they're all
scratching their heads.

But with this,
we have something physical

that we know for sure is
not natural.

No matter what else happens
across the entire ranch,

we have something
truly spectacular, a mystery

that is waiting to be solved,
and it's inside the mesa.

We know where it's at,
and now we've just got to

figure out the best
and safest method to get it.

So that's exciting for me.

You know,
you have to think about

this anomaly
that's inside the mesa.

Did it come right off of that?

Is this a piece
of that technology?

All right. Well,
let me put it this way, Matty.

Stay tuned.

We will. And thank you,
gentlemen, so much

for this unique opportunity.
It's just awesome.

To take a step back
and to look at it overall,

I think really helps the team,
and it certainly helps us fans

understand what's happening,
so thank you so much.

Well, where else can you go
on the planet and see UFOs,

unexplained material extracted
from an unlikely place,

and all of the equipment
malfunctions and, really,

the verification that there is
some type of anomaly,

whether it be a bubble, a dome,
something within this region

where everything seems
to be converging.

You've got to take note.

And we have, and we will
continue to follow your journey.

Thank you, gentlemen.
We'll do it again.

THOMAS:
Looking forward to it.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Something tells me
that Season Six

of The Secret of Skinwalker
Ranch is gonna be loaded

with earth-shaking events
and this is just the beginning.

Join me here next week,

right here
at the command center,

we'll do it all again.

Until then, have a good night.
