CHRIS: I've got something
over here you guys

- should take a look
at in the spoils.
- Man, look at this.

This looks just like
what we pulled out in the mesa.

Exactly the same.

CHRIS:
I'll look for more.

TRAVIS:
Oh, it's moving fast.

The rocket's completely
changed direction.

It's like
the bubble deflected it.

Every time I try to push through
the barrier, look what happens.

THOMAS (over radio):
He's trying to push the drone
through the bubble

- and it won't go.
- TRAVIS: That is crazy.

It's just stuck right there.

ERIK:
Okay, here we go.

- TRAVIS: There it is.
- KALEB: Oh, there it is.

- TRAVIS: Holy crap.
Look at that.
- KALEB: There's something

right next to the drone.

I don't know what else
to say about it other than

we need to keep studying

- this bubble.
- THOMAS: Right.

NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing occurrences on Earth.

For two decades,

the federal government

investigated the property.

Their findings
have never been made public.

TRAVIS:
Right there! We got something!

NARRATOR:
Now a new team

of independent scientists
and researchers

are taking over.

They are uncovering evidence

that the countless stories...

It came right out of the mesa.

...of unidentified
aerial phenomena...

- UAP right there!
- KALEB: Yep.

...bizarre energies...

It looks like there's
a heat source right above them.

...and portals that lead
to other dimensions...

We're maybe looking
at the anomaly

for the first time, guys.

...might actually be true.

They will stop at nothing
to reveal...

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

TRAVIS:
Morning, fellas.

- Good morning.
- Morning.

What's going on?

We're about 170 feet in.

TRAVIS:
Our team never knows

what to expect
on Skinwalker Ranch.

But this morning,
we were relieved to hear

that the guys
from Mark Construction Drilling

were making some good progress

on our second borehole
in the mesa.

So, did you just break through
some layer that was difficult?

We've been through a couple
different harder layers.

And, uh, whatever layer
we're in right now

is letting us move pretty good.

I'm encouraged
to hear you say that.

TRAVIS:
Previous drilling operations

and ground-penetrating
radar scans

have shown amazing evidence
that a 400-foot-long object

and several smaller anomalies
are buried inside there.

Recently,
we completed Borehole 1,

and now we're working
on Borehole 2,

so that both can be used
to insert scanning devices

that will help us figure out

what these buried objects
really are.

Last week, our first
new GPR scans in Borehole 1

revealed more data

that at least some of these
objects could be metallic.

And then, as the drillers

reached about 130 feet
into Borehole 2,

they hit something
much, much harder than rock.

I got something that you guys

would probably
be interested in right here.

TRAVIS:
This led to archaeologist
Chris Roberts

finding bits of metal
in the spoils

matching fragments
we found three years ago

that were similar

to what NASA and SpaceX use

to protect the exteriors
of spacecraft during reentry.

THOMAS:
The spoils trailer
is ready to dump.

ERIK:
Well, let's get those
inspected right away.

We're gonna let you
get back to work.

- Sounds like a plan.
- Sounds good.

All right. Good luck, guys.

So, after hearing
that the drillers

hit another very hard spot

about 170 feet into Borehole 2,

we couldn't wait to see
what Chris Roberts

might find in the spoils.

That's weird.

TRAVIS:
We figured it would take him
a while to look.

But then, almost immediately,
he called us.

CHRIS (over radio):
Hey, Thomas, you got a copy?

Yeah, I do. Go ahead.

I got something kind of curious
over here coming out,

and I thought you guys
might want to get a look at it.

Indeed, we do.
We'll be over soon.

TRAVIS:
Let's go load up
and get on over there.

ERIK:
I think it makes a lot of sense,

as we encounter
this hard material,

to expect to see something
coming back out

into the spoils
that would give us clues

as to what
the material composition is.

So, what's up?

CHRIS:
Well, they're coming up
with some, uh,

kind of green jelly
that we haven't seen

anywhere else through here.

And it just has
a green color to it.

- Look at this.
- That does look like
what we've seen before,

- don't it, Erik?
- This looks exactly
like what we've pulled out.

TRAVIS:
We were expecting
to hear about more metal,

but all this green jelly-like
stuff is just as curious.

Last year,
we found a small amount

of similar-looking material
in Borehole 1

and couldn't believe

what the scientific analysis
on it revealed.

The particles you see are pieces
of burnt plant material.

TRAVIS:
You mean like
something caused a fire

deep inside the mesa?

Absolutely. Yeah.

TRAVIS:
Wow.

If this green jelly matches

what we discovered last year,

then we've found
even more evidence that suggests

a fire or explosion
took place inside the mesa.

So, given the metal pieces
we've also found in the spoils

that might be related
to spacecraft,

what in the world could these
objects in the mesa actually be?

ERIK:
I'm glad to get our hands
on more of that stuff.

- We'll get it analyzed.
- TRAVIS: All right,

well, we got stuff to do.

TRAVIS:
Later that day,

while the drilling operation
continued at the mesa...

Man, y'all brought
a crew out this year, Tim.

Yeah, we-we got a crew
all right.

TRAVIS:
...we welcomed Tim Anderson

and his team from Nu-Salt Lasers

back out to help us
investigate something else

that's just as mind-boggling.

We discovered that there appears
to be a bubble over the ranch

that is invisible
to the naked eye

but is centered
at the triangle and is about

2,000 feet in radius.

So, we've got to get
more information about

what is going on right here,
and what's it connected to.

Using numerous
infrared technologies,

we've detected a gigantic bubble
with a 2,000-foot radius

that encompasses
a huge area of the property

both above and below ground.

Within this thing,

we've encountered tons of UAPs,

been unable to collect
accurate GPS data,

detected a bunch of strange
radio frequency signals,

and its boundaries
have even stopped rockets

and drones from entering it.

Well, you know
what we saw last year.

The laser stopped in midair.

We are hitting something
with the laser.

What are we hitting?

And last year, before we even
knew about the bubble,

during an experiment
at the triangle,

one of Nu-Salt's
high-powered lasers

was cut off 2,000 feet high,

right at the top boundary
of the bubble.

ERIK:
One of the really strong points

of the experiment
is that we are spanning

essentially the entire property.

You know, when we talk about
this bubble-like structure,

we're looking at points
on the outside,

right on that boundary,
on the inside.

And I think
those Laser Space Cannons

is a great way to go after it.

What's different about

what you're bringing out
this time, Tim?

Well, we do have
a brighter Laser Space Cannon,

so we're gonna be doing
a lot of red, green and blue

Laser Space Cannons
for the experiment.

ERIK:
All right, let's do it.

TRAVIS:
Our goal tonight is to confirm

if laser beams
really might be stopped

or strangely altered
by the bubble.

So, we're gonna use
multicolored laser beams

to see if all of them
will be affected in the same way

or if it only applies
to certain colors.

TIM: All right, guys, let's
start breaking out equipment.

TRAVIS:
To accomplish this,
the plan is

for Nu-Salt to set up
18 laser cannons

that are designed
to send multicolored beams

all the way up into outer space.

They'll be placed
in groups of three,

starting with one station
in the east field

and another near
the eastern bubble boundary,

then four more groups of three
strategically placed from there

all the way to Homestead Two,

which is close to the western
boundary of the bubble.

Inside the bubble, we'll have
a group of three lasers

placed at our data collection
facility, known as the ARC,

another group
right at the triangle

and the last group will be over
at the mesa drill site.

TIM:
That's pretty solid.

TRAVIS:
Once the laser cannons are on,

I'll be launching rockets both
outside and within the bubble

at Homestead Two,
the mesa drill site,

and in the east field.

We want to see if the rockets
are affected at all

or differently
depending on their proximity

to the bubble
or location inside it.

Meanwhile, from the south field,

Jim Royston will fly
his drone-based thermal camera

towards the bubble,
looking for anything strange

that might be invisible
to the naked eye.

We're getting there.

TRAVIS:
And as high-speed
and thermal cameras

around the ranch are recording
everything in the field...

...Erik will be monitoring
the experiment

from the control room
with his surveillance cameras

and spectrum analyzers.

I'm standing by, ready here
at the command center.

We are anxious
to energize the space

inside the bubble
as well as outside the bubble,

look for differences

in what happens
with the-the laser light,

including malfunctions
of the laser system itself.

We're also on the lookout
for any anomalous

equipment behavior and other
forms of unusual phenomena.

We're looking for
a unifying explanation

of whatever this bubble is.

TIM:
Nu-Salt laser crew,

we're gonna turn the lasers on
at the ARC.

Three, two, one.

Lasers on.

All right, guys.
Everybody's set up there.

We're getting ready to go.

- How you guys doing?
- Ah, we're good. How are you?

SAM:
Whoa. Right there.

ROYSTON:
Whoa, we got something moving.

KALEB:
We've got something right here
in the south over here.

ROYSTON:
Boy, that's bright.

KALEB: We got
a bright yellow light moving.

It's heading due east now.

No aviation lights, just
a solid bright yellow light.

Copy that, Kaleb.

I do not see any corresponding
air traffic on the ADS-B.

- I'll keep an eye out.
- 10-4.

- ROYSTON: Boy, that was bright.
- KALEB: Yeah.

TRAVIS:
Just after turning on the three
laser cannons at the ARC,

which is inside the bubble,

a stunning UAP
appeared in the sky

for several seconds
and then just vanished.

Did it come from
or was it somehow

connected to the bubble?

VADIM (over radio):
Hey, Tim.

I just lost the, uh,
hardwired lasers at the ARC.

Uh, I'm gonna try
to troubleshoot them

and figure out what's going on.

TIM:
Roger that.

Hey, so, are-- they're on now

- and they're staying on?
- VADIM: Yeah. Yeah.

Tim, do we have
an assignable cause

for the systems going down?

We do not.

I-I don't, I don't believe
it was overheating,

so I'm not sure
why they went down.

But we're gonna keep
our eye on it.

Copy that. Thanks.

TRAVIS:
Correlation is not
necessarily causation.

But this was another weird case
of something unexplainable

appearing in the sky right
before some of our equipment

suddenly malfunctioned.

Was this connected to the UAP?

THOMAS:
Hey, it's Thomas.
Uh, just letting you know

that we're just getting ready
to leave right now.

ERIK:
Copy that, and over.

TRAVIS:
Thomas, Chris and I
grabbed all of the rockets

and headed out to Homestead Two

near the western boundary
of the bubble

just after the UAP appeared

and the lasers
by the ARC malfunctioned.

What an interesting start, huh?

THOMAS:
Yes.

- TRAVIS: Thomas, you want
to grab the rocket, man?
- Yep.

TRAVIS:
So, I wanted to get
as many laser cannons fired up

as we could and then launch
our first rocket

just outside the bubble barrier

to see if something
even stranger might happen.

Hey, Erik, we've got, uh,
one rocket on the pad.

Let's go ahead and, uh,

bring all the lasers up.

Okay. Copy that. Thanks, man.

TIM:
All right,
Nu-Salt laser technicians,

I'm gonna do a countdown.

Three, two,

one, lasers.

THOMAS:
Lasers are up.

- Look at that.
- TRAVIS: Look at that. Wow.

TRAVIS:
The lasers look amazing.

With all
the laser cannons working,

I was ready to fire off a rocket

just outside of the bubble
from Homestead Two.

Meanwhile, Jim launched
his drone in the south field

so he could fly it
into the bubble

and look for any
invisible phenomena

that might be triggered
by the lasers or the rocket.

And from the command center,

Erik was monitoring
the drone's GPS position.

Uh, I show him in the air,

and I'm carefully
monitoring for,

uh, data corruption errors.

KALEB:
10-4.

Yeah, copy that.

ERIK:
Whoa.

I do see some
at his current position.

ROYSTON:
Correct.

I lost complete control
of the drone.

KALEB:
What the heck?

Hey, Travis and Erik?

Just for your guys' information,

Jim's drone had an error.

Copy that. Thank you, Kaleb.

We're seeing loss
of navigation lights,

loss in-in the connectivity

between the drone
and the controller.

Why are we seeing
the data corruption

around the periphery
of the bubble?

TRAVIS:
Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, Travis. Go ahead.

We are picking up,
at the 1.2 gigahertz,

what looks like an oscillating
communication signal.

I've also got that,

uh, just north
of, uh, 1.2 gigahertz.

Copy that, Erik.

We're also seeing three peaks
at 1.6 gigahertz as well.

Copy that.

I, uh, should keep an eye
on that as well.

TRAVIS:
There was too much happening
to just be coincidence.

Right after Jim Royston's drone
started glitching

when it approached the southern
boundary of the bubble,

we detected two very bizarre
radio frequency signals.

First, the 1.2 gigahertz.

This is a signal
that Erik himself

broadcast a few weeks ago

just to monitor for interference

while we investigated
the bubble.

It's one that we had never
detected before on the ranch.

But then, something
seemed to have cloned it

and transmitted it back at us.

So, was that happening again?

And then,
the 1.6 gigahertz signal.

We see 1.6 on the ranch a lot
during UAP events.

But that's a signal
that the military reserves

for Earth-to-space
communications.

So, what is sending that
on Skinwalker Ranch?

All right,
the rocket is going hot

at the west end of the ranch.

With all this going on,

I really wanted
to get a rocket launched

just outside the bubble
to see if something would happen

that might give us a clue.

Rocket is launching in five,

four, three,

two, one.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I just hit all the errors.

ERIK:
Unbelievable.

KALEB:
Hey, Erik? Jim just got

all sorts of errors, and having
a lot of interference

- going on with the drone.
- SAM: All right, Erik,
be advised,

the, uh, drone
is aborting the flight

and returning to home.

ERIK:
Okay, listen to this...

...that data corruption error

happened literally right
at the edge of that bubble.

- (laughter)
- That's freakin' nuts.

TRAVIS:
The rocket appeared
to be unaffected.

But right after I launched it,

Jim's drone
completely malfunctioned

and couldn't penetrate
the southern barrier

of the bubble.

Did the rocket
somehow activate the bubble

to stop the drone
from flying inside it?

That just makes no sense.

THOMAS:
I don't see green
from the drill site.

TRAVIS:
Oh, yeah.

We're seeing a phenomena here
where we do not see the green

at the drill site

from Homestead Two.

ERIK:
Guys, be advised,
it is not at all clear

that the green laser is working.

I can say that we have
only the green laser beam,

uh, at the edge of the bubble
on the east side.

Okay, now I've got
a red beam only.

The green laser is off.

At the edge of the bubble
on the east side,

we have only the red laser now.

We're losing lasers.

They're having
all kind of trouble.

The laser cannons
were all emitting

multicolored beams.

But at several locations,

only certain colors
stopped working.

Like something was
selectively shutting them off.

What could do that?

TIM (over radio):
All right, we have lasers up.

Copy that, Tim.
Thanks for the update.

All right,
let's head on to the next site.

Was it something
related to the bubble

that was also broadcasting

the 1.2 and 1.6 gigahertz
signals?

Everyone be advised that, uh,

we are on the move
to the drill site.

ERIK:
Copy that.

At that point, I wanted
to launch another rocket,

but this time,
from inside the bubble

at the mesa drill site

to see if that
might get us an answer.

(device beeping)

- What's beeping?
- Whoa.

- What's beeping?
- Look at-- oh, my God,
look at that.

We're getting huge gamma rays.

Everybody in their cars
and out of here.

- THOMAS: Out, out, out, out.
- We're evacuating now.

- TRAVIS: Everybody, out now.
- Hey, guys, it's going off!

TRAVIS:
It's going nut--
everybody out, now!

- TRAVIS: This is no joke.
- THOMAS: No, it's not.

- THOMAS: Erik...
- Erik, we are getting over

700 counts per minute,

and at some points, it was 800.

That's getting into
the dangerous zone there,

uh, Travis.

TRAVIS:
Things went from weird

to really freakin' scary
at the mesa drill site

right as we were preparing
to launch a rocket

up through the bubble.

Out of nowhere,

our gamma ray detector
started spiking,

which indicated
we were suddenly exposed

to an extremely dangerous level
of radiation.

Anybody at Homestead Two,
anybody west,

has to come back towards
the command center.

ERIK:
I have real concerns about these
elevated radiation readings.

There's really nothing in nature
that would produce

spikes like this.

We can't help but speculate
as to what

could have done that?

But perhaps this is related
to this bubble.

TRAVIS:
We're now approaching
the triangle,

but it seems to be following us.

We're still getting slammed.

KALEB:
Travis, you guys literally
just got to the triangle,

and right
when you guys got there,

the-- all the lasers
just went out.

TRAVIS:
That doesn't make any sense.

When Kaleb alerted us
that the laser cannons

at the triangle quit working,
it was right

as we were passing by on our way
back to the command center.

Now, we were also driving
inside the bubble.

So, was something inside of it
shutting down our equipment

while also emitting this spike
of gamma rays at us?

What the heck was going on?

ROYSTON:
Look at this, guys.

- Look at this. Look at this.
- KALEB: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

- ROYSTON: It's heading right
towards the command center.
- Yeah.

KALEB:
Hey, guys, we just had

a massive...
(chuckles)

...bright green yellowish light

directly east
of the south tower.

It looked like
it was heading right towards

the command center.

TRAVIS:
Copy that, Kaleb.

There's something going on here.

Holy crap.

A UAP flying toward
the command center,

and right where we were heading.

I mean, it was
absolute chaos out there,

but could that UAP
have been the source

of all those gamma rays
following us across the ranch?

And all of this was
happening inside the bubble.

So is this where it came from?

That was low, low.

Yeah, that went frickin' crazy.

Right?

You've got two different
Geiger counters.

TRAVIS:
Yeah.

Just kind of watch
and see what happens.

(device clicking)

THOMAS:
What was that?

(clicking continues)

- TRAVIS: It jumped.
- Oh, it's jumping. Look.

TRAVIS:
Look at that.

Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, Travis, go ahead.

TRAVIS:
Erik, we checked
a second gamma ray detector.

If I hold one,
it's up over 1,900,

but if I'm not touching it,
it reads normal levels.

So I think we're having
an electromagnetic

interference issue here,

not gamma rays.

Yeah, Travis, I'm...

fairly confident we're
looking at an E.M.I. issue.

TRAVIS:
Okay. It was time
to take a deep breath.

The Geiger counters detected

normal and safe levels
of radiation

when I wasn't touching them,

but spiked
when I picked them up.

That meant
we were not getting hit

by dangerous levels
of gamma rays,

but instead, something
had caused major E.M.I.,

or electromagnetic interference,
here on the ranch,

which can make
electronics go haywire

like what we were seeing.

So, since this all took place
inside the bubble,

was that-- or the UAPs we saw--
behind all this chaos?

All right, well,

let's get another instrument
in your hands.

Let's get a third witness.

TRAVIS:
Good idea, Erik.

Let's get a third
gamma ray detector out here.

Chris, I'm gonna give you one
of these gamma ray detectors.

So, what I want you to do
is follow behind us.

You keep an eye on that,
and if we don't see

any crazy things happening,

- then we're gonna
go back to the experiment.
- Okay.

THOMAS:
Thomas to Erik.

Yeah, go ahead for Erik.

We're gonna take
these, uh, detectors

and go back towards
the drill site slowly

and see if, uh, we pick up
any unusual readings.

Copy that, Thomas.

Let's do it.

(engine starts)

We wanted to get back out
to the mesa drill site

and continue our laser
and rocket experiment,

but we had to make certain
it was safe.

So Erik suggested
that Thomas and I

take two Geiger counters
in my jeep,

while Chris follows behind
with a third one.

That way, we can compare
what our readings were

on the way out there.

Hey, Chris, you copy?
What you reading?

Uh, I am, uh,
sitting at 20 right now.

Copy that, Chris.

That's right in line
with what yours is reading.

- TRAVIS: Yeah.
- 19.

TRAVIS:
Wow.

Everybody ranch-wide,

I wanted to make
the announcement.

The gamma ray levels are normal.

We think whatever the event was

that just occurred is over,
and that the ranch is safe.

I copy that, Travis.
Thanks for that update.

TRAVIS:
And all the lasers
appear to be working.

I guess we need
to get that rocket ready.

The lasers
at the mesa drill site

were functioning as planned,

so I was eager to get
another rocket launched

from inside
the bubble's western boundary

to see if anything stranger

than what we had already seen
would happen.

- CHRIS: It's hot.
- All right. We are launching

the rocket in five...

four, three, two,

one.

Dude, that went straight up.

- We got a chute.
- Oh, yeah, good chute.

TRAVIS:
Looks like the rocket did well.

It's coming straight down on us.

KALEB:
Hey, guys, the ARC lasers
just went out.

TRAVIS:
Yeah, the lasers did go off.

I'm gonna go up higher.

KALEB:
The drill site lasers
just went out also.

Yeah, I don't see them at all.

TRAVIS:
Yeah, Erik, we can confirm

that the drill site lasers
are out.

Hey, Tim, we're at
the drill site right now.

Are you guys turning lasers off
without us knowing it?

TIM:
We're not turning
any lasers off or on.

TRAVIS:
Uhp, laser just came on.

TIM:
We have lasers on at the ARC.

I-I don't understand it.

TRAVIS: Right after
I launched the rocket,

laser cannons across
the ranch suddenly started

shutting off
and then coming back on.

Was it just a mechanical error?

Or was something else
messing with them?

Hey, Adam, dude, from right
over there, across the road,

it looked like all three
of the lasers were out.

ADAM:
It went completely out and then
came right back on, like--

- it was weird, I was sitting
here staring right at it.
- That's crazy.

And then, when the lasers
first came on,

I took this picture...

...and caught that at the top.

- TRAVIS: Oh. Wait.
- THOMAS: What is that?

Something flying
horizontally through

the dad-gummed laser beam.

THOMAS:
What the hell is that?

THOMAS:
What the hell is that?

Something flying
horizontally through

the dad-gummed laser beam.

It's not the rocket,

because the rocket
was going the other way.

- And it's through the green.
- Yeah.

Holy crap.

Did firing a rocket from inside

the western boundary
of the bubble

trigger another UAP to appear
and fly through the laser beam?

And was that what caused
the laser malfunctions

across the ranch?

That's pretty crazy.
That's a great picture.

- Make sure we get a copy
of that picture.
- I will.

- All right,
let's get out of here.
- Okay.

- TRAVIS: Let's load up...
- Yep.

...and meet at the east canyon

to launch a rocket
by those laser cannons.

- THOMAS: Sounds good.
- All right.

TRAVIS:
Since we had encountered
some of the wildest UAPs ever

after launching rockets
near the western boundary

of the bubble and inside it
by the drill site,

we wanted to see
what would happen

when we launched a rocket
from just outside

of the eastern bubble barrier.

ROYSTON:
Kaleb.

- KALEB: Yeah.
- Right where I am,
I'm just hitting

the bubble barrier to the south.

I'm just starting
to get some errors.

- Sam, you'll be watching that?
- SAM: Yeah.

KALEB:
Every time you hit
the bubble boundary,

- you're getting an error.
- I'm looking at it visually,

- Kaleb's got it on FLIR.
- Yeah.

KALEB:
Dude.

You...

It looks like you just flew
through something.

- What?
- Right when you hit the bubble,

- it looked like a...
like a sphere or something...
- No way.

- ...just surrounded your drone.
- No way.

SAM: You were a very tight
bright spot,

and then all of a sudden,
you went to, like,

a big blurry spot.

- Really?
- (laughs): Yeah.

Yeah.

ERIK (over radio):
Erik for Kaleb.

KALEB:
Yeah, go ahead, Erik.

At the moment that the drone
passed through

uh, the bubble,

uh, I did get
a data corruption error.

- There you go, that's the spot.
- 10-4, Erik.

ROYSTON:
As soon as I start moving
into that barrier,

sure enough, I start getting
all these errors on the drone.

And now we're seeing
something around the drone

on the FLIR camera.

It's like there's almost
a flare or it could be

some energy or something.

Come on, man.

All right, I'm coming back.

What is going on out here

around this boundary
of the bubble?

TRAVIS (over radio):
Hey, Erik.

We're in motion
to, uh, the next site,

the east canyon.

ERIK:
Copy that, Travis.

Go out here and see what we got.

- Grab that rocket, Thomas.
- THOMAS: Yep.

ERIK:
So, guys, I think
we're getting really close.

You know, once we get all
of our personnel cleared out,

uh, we can start prepping
for that raster scan.

TRAVIS:
Copy that, Erik.

For the final step
of our experiment,

we'll launch a rocket
near the eastern bubble barrier

while the Nu-Salt team will aim
a specialized laser projector

horizontally from the south tower.

It'll shoot laser beams

in various raster patterns
side to side,

scanning through
much more of the area

inside the bubble
and across the mesa.

We'll be looking for breaks,
bends, deviations

or anything strange
in the laser beams

as they pass through the bubble.

Given what we've already seen,

we didn't know
what to expect next.

KALEB:
Okay, so while they're getting

this last rocket set up

and moving into position,
let's get this going.

Okay, perfect.

KALEB: Hey, guys,
lasers coming up in five,

four, three,

two, one.

SAM:
Oh, wow.

That's great.

THOMAS:
Oh, I can see the laser
over there on the hill.

Oh, yeah, you can see it
coming across. You sure can.

ERIK:
Mm-hmm.

That's a great way to detect
interruptions in the beam.

I like that.

TRAVIS:
We ready?

- We're hot.
- All right.

Here we go, in five,

four, three,

two, one.

- Oh, beautiful launch.
- CHRIS: Beautiful.

TRAVIS:
The rastering
laser beams produced

one of the most visually
stimulating things

we had ever seen on the ranch.

Hey, guys, we're gonna
give it 30 more seconds

on these green beams,
and then we'll bring them down.

Copy that, Kaleb.

TRAVIS:
But after several minutes,

no more strange phenomena
seemed to appear

in front of our eyes
or on our detection devices.

It was like whatever
we were dealing with earlier

was now gone.

But who knows?

We'll have to process
all of our data

to really know for sure.

ERIK: Yeah, hey, guys,
it looks like we've got

a really good data payload here.

Um, I say we, uh,
we call it a night.

- It's time to wrap things up.
- Copy that, Erik.

We're loading up,
we're headed that way.

Yeah, 10-4, Erik.
Lasers coming down.

ERIK:
All right, guys,
thank you for your work tonight.

TRAVIS:
I can't wait to see this data.

TRAVIS:
Greetings, earthlings.

ERIK:
Come on in and have a seat.

What are we doing today, Erik?

So, we're looking at the review

of all the data we got
last night with Nu-Salt Lasers.

Mm-hmm.

TRAVIS:
The next day, while drilling

in our second borehole
continued out at the mesa,

Erik called all of us
into the command center

after he and Jim had crunched
all of their data.

I was just talking with Jim
about the drone work.

You guys probably recall,
he ran into

some issues right there
at the bubble boundary.

- Oh, yeah.
- ERIK: And we'll compare that

- with the GPS data.
- Yup.

ERIK:
So, Jim, I have the video clips

that you've sent me
from your controller.

I want you to walk me
through what's going on here.

Absolutely, so the first one

I'll bring up is
the first flight.

ERIK:
Okay.

All right, I'm looking
at the thermographic image.

ROYSTON:
And I was really focusing more

on getting through
the bubble boundary.

All right,
so I'm already seeing some

messages popping up on your...
on your display.

As you're seeing, we start
losing signal to the controller.

ERIK:
Mm-hmm. Okay.

THOMAS:
I'm watching your FPV camera,
your first-person view

that's mounted there
on the drone.

It looks like that drone was
just really taking a beating.

ERIK:
Yeah, you can see that

in the lower right--
Thomas was referring to it--

you'll see it bob up and down.

TRAVIS:
Oh, wow, look at that.

Well, if it jumps that much,
what in the world? Look at that!

- How are you controlling that?
- Yeah, what's going on there?

TRAVIS:
Oh, but look where you are.

Looks like you're right
at the barrier wall.

You're right about
at that point.

You're exactly right.
It looked like...

- TRAVIS: Look at that!
- I mean, it was shaking.

TRAVIS: The drone is shaking
as it tries to enter the bubble.

- That right there
is fascinating.
- Yeah.

ERIK:
We have the corresponding GPS

- tracking data
that we can look at...
- TRAVIS: Oh, yeah.

- ...that goes with all of this.
- ROYSTON: Perfect.

Um, what you'll see

is that in many instances,

when you are reporting errors,

I'm getting
these data corruption errors.

So, let's see here.

TRAVIS: So, look right there
at the barrier,

you see-- start seeing
loss of data.

And look right at the corner

where you're getting closer
to the bubble wall.

Yeah, look at that,
right at the corner.

ROYSTON: Yeah, you can see
that we were touching it.

TRAVIS: And look.
Right as it gets at the corner,

it turns red.

Like the data's corrupted
right there.

ROYSTON:
Talk about poking the bubble.

We literally touched it
right there.

And that's where
it all happened.

You know, I-I wouldn't put
a lot of stock in it

if it weren't for the fact that
this was happening again...

- and again and again.
- Yes. Right.
- I know.

- All of our error points
are painting this picture.
- Yeah.

- TRAVIS:
That is just unbelievable.
- Wow.

TRAVIS: Once again,
when Jim Royston's drone tried

to enter
the bubble's southern wall,

its GPS data was corrupted,

and the drone
got physically stopped

from crossing
through the barrier.

Now, we don't know yet if
the UAPs we saw last night came

from something
inside the bubble.

But it makes you wonder.

Could the bubble be stopping
the drone from entering it,

and preventing us

from discovering the source
of the UAPs?

Well, the data are
coming together

in such a way
that it's becoming natural

for us to talk about the bubble
wall as if it is a thing.

You beat me to it.

ROYSTON:
Yeah, definitely.

So, what else you got, Erik?

ERIK:
So, we are simultaneously
tracking,

in real time, the GPS position
of the drone and the Jeep.

- KALEB: Okay.
- ERIK: This is
when you were heading out

to Homestead Two just
as we started the experiment.

The yellow is the data
from the drone,

and the blue is the data
from the Jeep.

Look at the missing

GPS data from the Jeep
over by Homestead Two.

Look at that huge gap
right there.

ERIK:
Let's take a look.

Something was driving
the data down

below ground, you know,
hundreds of feet.

THOMAS:
Whoa.

That is interesting.

ERIK:
Yeah, and going back to the data

that we collected
with Jay Stratton in 2022.

You recall,
as we were driving the Jeep...

- Oh, yeah.
- ...in this very same area,

something was driving
the GPS data down below ground

- hundreds of feet.
- TRAVIS: Mm-hmm.

That's exactly right.

Two years ago,

Jay Stratton, who investigated
the ranch in the early 2000s

for the federal government,
came out to show us where

his team experienced phenomena
near Homestead Two.

Later, as we reviewed the data

from the GPS tracker
on our Jeep...

The data went way underground.

Wow.

TRAVIS:
...we were stunned to see

that the data
dove deep underground.

And now it happened again
during our experiment last night

in the same spot at the
western boundary of the bubble.

How in the world can
this barrier stop us

from collecting data?

Do we have anything else, Erik?

So, I have
some still-frame images

that are built
from long exposure.

These show the laser cannons
that were in the east field.

You know, obviously,
given what we saw last night,

we're all very interested
in whether we see any kinds

of unusual effects
in the beams themselves.

- Mm-hmm.
- Can you zoom in on that?

Look at that.

- There is a gap
in the green laser beam.
- KALEB: Whoa.

- What the hell?
- Exactly.

TRAVIS:
Look at that.

There is a gap
in the green laser beam.

- What the hell?
- Exactly.

TRAVIS:
These lasers are right
by each other.

I mean, literally inches
from each other.

ERIK:
Yeah.

And it didn't stop the blue

- or the red, only the green.
- KALEB: Yeah.

And it's the same thing
we saw last year.

TRAVIS:
That's outside
the bubble boundary.

Wow.

Kaleb's exactly right.

During an experiment last year

using the Nu-Salt lasers
at the triangle,

something blocked out
a small section

only in their green laser beam.

But that was inside the bubble.

- Whoa.
- ROYSTON: Whoa.
- KALEB: No.

What could be doing that?

And now, the exact same thing
happened last night

just outside the bubble's
eastern barrier.

This is why we used
different colored laser beams.

To see if they would be affected
differently.

But now the question is why?

- Well, that's repeatable.
- ERIK: And I have even more

to show you from the laser
cannons in the east field.

- So, here's another...
- TRAVIS: What is that

- in the blue beam there?
- Mm-hmm.

ERIK:
I'm going to zoom in.

Okay.

TRAVIS:
Something moved

and created that distortion

in the beam right there.

KALEB:
So that beam that's being
interrupted right there--

- that's the same beam
in the east field canyons.
- Yes.

- That we just saw
with the other break in it?
- Oh.

That's a good point.

Look at the shape.

TRAVIS:
There's a cube right there.

KALEB:
Like a cube or a square object.

- This is fascinating.
- Wow.

TRAVIS: To now see a break
in the blue beam,

is it possible
that it was an object,

a craft, or something else,

that we got snapshots of

as it went through
both the green and blue beams?

If so, what was it?

And where did it come from?

- ERIK: But wait.
- TRAVIS: But wait.

There's more.

Okay, what is this one?

ERIK:
Yeah, this is
surveillance footage

of something moving in
that general region of the sky.

KALEB:
There's two of 'em.

ERIK:
You see what's going on here?

How about I dive in on it?

- Yeah.
- Zoom in.

KALEB:
Yeah.

THOMAS: And then,
one of them disappeared.

- Yeah.
- Let's just keep
watching this one.

TRAVIS:
Okay.

- TRAVIS: Wow.
- KALEB: Whoa.

TRAVIS:
And it vanished right there.

Let's play that again.

TRAVIS:
Whatever these two things
are here,

they don't seem to look

like your typical
low-earth orbiting satellites.

It's moving too slow and
with a different kind of motion.

Well, it certainly isn't
in lower orbit because

the rate of travel here
is far too slow,

- and there are
no aviation lights.
- No aviation lights.

TRAVIS:
Was one or both of these UAPs

- what flew
through the laser beams?
- Yeah.

So, go back
to three minutes, Erik.

There's a lot of stuff
going on here, and I just saw

a really bright flash,
too, so...

TRAVIS: Oh, there was a flash.
There was a flash.

- Back up, Erik.
- Okay.

TRAVIS: And then there's
that flash. What is that?

Where is that light coming from?
What?

Holy crap.
I don't know what the flash

in the east field
could have been,

but it seemed to appear right
at the same time as the UAPs.

Could that have been
where they came from?

And if so, how might it
be related to the bubble?

As always,
I'm in a state of bewilderment.

In awe.

You know, we see things inside
and outside the bubble.

ERIK:
Listen, I want to bring Bryan

and Preston from Sky Elements

back out here, and I think
this is an area of interest.

I think it would make sense for
us to just conduct an experiment

with drones on either side

- of that boundary
of the bubble.
- ROYSTON: Yup.

TRAVIS:
And we want
to watch what they do

when they are
in these locations

inside and outside
of the bubble, all right?

All right, guys, this was
a fantastic review. Fantastic.

- Yeah.
- Wow.
- All right.

TRAVIS:
Great stuff.

- ERIK: Thank you.
- TRAVIS: Yup.

ERIK: As we continue
to expand the scope and scale

of this investigation
of the bubble

and its response to energetic
events, much more often,

we're seeing with frequency
and with repetition,

electromagnetic interference.

Could this bubble be responsible

for all of the strange things

that are happening
on the property?

BRANDON: The bubble anomaly
above the property

may be the mechanism
or that which is responsible

for the strange
electromagnetic anomalies

and the equipment malfunctions
we continue to see.

My hope is to find answers,

to be able to understand
the nature of the bubble

and why it exists
on Skinwalker Ranch.
