Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,502 --> 00:00:02,836
Commencing first run.
2
00:00:03,003 --> 00:00:04,283
Today we're gonna get lidar data
3
00:00:04,338 --> 00:00:05,672
across the bubble boundary.
4
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:07,507
We've had a lot of instruments
5
00:00:07,674 --> 00:00:09,360
showing that there's a bubble
that's centered right there
6
00:00:09,384 --> 00:00:10,761
on those towers.
7
00:00:10,886 --> 00:00:13,222
- Fire the Tesla guns.
- All right.
8
00:00:13,430 --> 00:00:15,057
We're looking for interactivity between
9
00:00:15,265 --> 00:00:16,892
the blob and the bubble boundary.
10
00:00:17,059 --> 00:00:19,061
Dude, look at that. 33 megahertz.
11
00:00:19,269 --> 00:00:20,646
This is coming from the sky.
12
00:00:20,812 --> 00:00:22,731
- Fire.
- There it goes.
13
00:00:22,898 --> 00:00:24,483
Whoa, that one just changed direction.
14
00:00:24,650 --> 00:00:27,277
Something literally pushed
the tail of the rocket.
15
00:00:27,402 --> 00:00:28,695
Let's see what's going on here.
16
00:00:28,862 --> 00:00:30,155
Something pushed that rocket
17
00:00:30,322 --> 00:00:31,823
at the same height as the Tesla coil.
18
00:00:31,990 --> 00:00:33,242
Maybe it's the blob.
19
00:00:33,367 --> 00:00:35,410
Now, that's crazy.
20
00:00:36,537 --> 00:00:39,957
There is a ranch in Northern Utah.
21
00:00:40,123 --> 00:00:42,584
It is considered the epicenter
22
00:00:42,751 --> 00:00:47,756
of the strangest and most
disturbing occurrences on Earth.
23
00:00:47,923 --> 00:00:49,174
For two decades,
24
00:00:49,341 --> 00:00:50,884
the federal government
25
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:53,011
investigated the property.
26
00:00:53,178 --> 00:00:56,598
Their findings
have never been made public.
27
00:00:56,765 --> 00:00:58,016
Right there! We got something!
28
00:00:58,183 --> 00:00:59,977
Now a new team
29
00:01:00,185 --> 00:01:03,939
of independent scientists
and researchers are taking over.
30
00:01:04,522 --> 00:01:05,857
They are uncovering evidence
31
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:07,818
that the countless stories...
32
00:01:08,026 --> 00:01:09,778
It came right out of the mesa.
33
00:01:09,987 --> 00:01:12,281
Of unidentified aerial phenomena...
34
00:01:12,447 --> 00:01:13,865
UAP right there!
35
00:01:14,032 --> 00:01:15,534
Bizarre energies...
36
00:01:15,701 --> 00:01:17,595
It looks like there's
a heat source right above 'em.
37
00:01:17,619 --> 00:01:20,247
And portals that lead
to other dimensions...
38
00:01:20,414 --> 00:01:21,774
We're maybe looking at the anomaly
39
00:01:21,873 --> 00:01:23,041
for the first time, guys.
40
00:01:23,208 --> 00:01:25,627
Might actually be true.
41
00:01:25,794 --> 00:01:28,380
They will stop at nothing to reveal...
42
00:01:31,049 --> 00:01:34,636
The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.
43
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:41,643
Hey, Pete.
44
00:01:41,768 --> 00:01:42,978
Thanks for jumping on.
45
00:01:43,186 --> 00:01:44,688
Hey, guys.
46
00:01:44,855 --> 00:01:47,232
I've got some data to show you
from the lidar scans
47
00:01:47,399 --> 00:01:49,109
we took the other day during drilling.
48
00:01:49,276 --> 00:01:51,361
Can't wait to see it.
49
00:01:51,528 --> 00:01:53,405
A couple days ago, we had Pete Kelsey
50
00:01:53,572 --> 00:01:56,867
help us run a multi-device
lidar scanning experiment
51
00:01:57,034 --> 00:01:59,870
as we were drilling
a vertical borehole in the mesa.
52
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:02,998
We wanted to see
if the massive giant anomaly
53
00:02:03,165 --> 00:02:05,834
we call "the bubble"
would appear like it has before
54
00:02:06,001 --> 00:02:08,336
during our past drilling operations.
55
00:02:08,502 --> 00:02:12,049
Made us wonder if our efforts
to reach the huge,
56
00:02:12,215 --> 00:02:14,426
possibly metallic object
buried in the mesa
57
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:17,387
is triggering the bubble to appear.
58
00:02:17,554 --> 00:02:19,765
So, as we drilled in the mesa,
59
00:02:19,931 --> 00:02:21,731
Pete was flying
in Cameron Fugal's helicopter,
60
00:02:21,808 --> 00:02:23,560
performing a lidar scan
61
00:02:23,685 --> 00:02:26,605
at a constant elevation of about 200 feet.
62
00:02:26,772 --> 00:02:29,733
Meanwhile, Kaleb set up
a stationary lidar scanner
63
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:31,777
on the ground at the triangle.
64
00:02:32,819 --> 00:02:34,821
I want to show you
the scans from the ground first.
65
00:02:35,030 --> 00:02:36,365
Okay.
66
00:02:36,490 --> 00:02:38,283
I overlaid all of the scans
67
00:02:38,408 --> 00:02:41,286
that Kaleb took on the ground.
68
00:02:41,453 --> 00:02:44,164
So, here, we're looking
at four of the terrestrial
69
00:02:44,331 --> 00:02:48,043
laser scans at the triangle.
70
00:02:48,168 --> 00:02:50,087
The first thing you might notice is,
71
00:02:50,253 --> 00:02:51,797
there's no evidence of the bubble
72
00:02:51,963 --> 00:02:54,508
in any of these scans.
73
00:02:54,675 --> 00:02:57,260
Okay. Well, that could confirm
74
00:02:57,469 --> 00:02:59,096
that the bubble is not always there.
75
00:02:59,262 --> 00:03:00,764
That's interesting.
76
00:03:00,889 --> 00:03:02,432
The next thing you might notice
77
00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:05,936
is, these blue icons
show the scanner position
78
00:03:06,103 --> 00:03:09,523
according to the GPS in the scanner.
79
00:03:10,565 --> 00:03:12,943
Now, what this shows is, there's about...
80
00:03:14,111 --> 00:03:17,364
an 80-foot difference
81
00:03:17,531 --> 00:03:19,866
between the first scan and the last scan,
82
00:03:20,033 --> 00:03:21,702
which doesn't make any sense
83
00:03:21,910 --> 00:03:24,121
because we didn't move the scanner.
84
00:03:24,246 --> 00:03:25,956
Whoa.
85
00:03:26,081 --> 00:03:27,958
Wow.
86
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:31,294
The GPS systems
on these lidar scanners
87
00:03:31,461 --> 00:03:33,130
are programmed to be precise,
88
00:03:33,296 --> 00:03:35,424
so the huge discrepancy in Pete's data
89
00:03:35,590 --> 00:03:36,967
shouldn't be possible.
90
00:03:37,134 --> 00:03:39,010
Especially since he didn't
even see the bubble
91
00:03:39,177 --> 00:03:40,595
show up in his scans.
92
00:03:40,762 --> 00:03:42,848
So, the next bit I'll show you
93
00:03:43,014 --> 00:03:45,225
is the lidar that was mounted
on the helicopter.
94
00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:48,520
- Yep.
- Okay.
95
00:03:48,645 --> 00:03:50,355
So, what we're seeing is the GPS data
96
00:03:50,522 --> 00:03:53,066
that the scanner took from the helicopter,
97
00:03:53,233 --> 00:03:55,235
which was maintaining
a constant altitude
98
00:03:55,402 --> 00:03:58,321
of about 200 feet above the mesa.
99
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:02,784
But look here at this data
just east of the drill site.
100
00:04:02,951 --> 00:04:05,829
The GPS data says we rose in altitude,
101
00:04:05,996 --> 00:04:08,874
even though we never changed altitude.
102
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,419
Yeah, there's a hump
there in the flight path data
103
00:04:12,627 --> 00:04:16,214
that's probably 50 to 100 foot
higher in altitude.
104
00:04:16,380 --> 00:04:19,384
I know Cameron was trying
to stay at the same altitude,
105
00:04:19,551 --> 00:04:21,178
so I wonder what caused the hump
106
00:04:21,386 --> 00:04:23,346
towards the eastern side of the bubble.
107
00:04:23,513 --> 00:04:25,015
Exactly.
108
00:04:25,182 --> 00:04:26,767
That's two lidar instruments
109
00:04:26,933 --> 00:04:28,518
at different points in the bubble
110
00:04:28,685 --> 00:04:31,563
that all recorded completely warped data.
111
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:35,025
So, were they affected
by something in the bubble
112
00:04:35,192 --> 00:04:37,402
or by our drilling operation in the mesa,
113
00:04:37,569 --> 00:04:39,196
or was it both?
114
00:04:39,362 --> 00:04:42,282
As always, Pete, it's, good stuff.
115
00:04:42,407 --> 00:04:43,992
What do you say we go check in
116
00:04:44,159 --> 00:04:45,452
with the drillers out there?
117
00:04:45,619 --> 00:04:47,037
All right, let's get with it.
118
00:04:47,204 --> 00:04:48,497
All right. Take care, guys.
119
00:04:48,705 --> 00:04:50,874
I'll see you out there soon.
120
00:04:51,041 --> 00:04:54,085
- See you later, man.
- Yeah, thanks, Pete.
121
00:04:59,090 --> 00:05:01,676
- Hey, fellas.
- What's up?
122
00:05:02,761 --> 00:05:04,971
Later that afternoon,
we headed up to the mesa,
123
00:05:05,138 --> 00:05:07,682
where the Triple A Drilling team
was making good progress
124
00:05:07,849 --> 00:05:09,059
on our latest
125
00:05:09,267 --> 00:05:11,770
24-inch-diameter vertical borehole.
126
00:05:15,315 --> 00:05:17,776
We're at 53 feet deep.
127
00:05:17,943 --> 00:05:19,861
In the next 30 feet here,
128
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:22,072
we've got the best shot of intersecting
129
00:05:22,239 --> 00:05:23,615
- with Borehole 2.
- Right.
130
00:05:23,782 --> 00:05:25,909
We are estimating it to be anywhere
131
00:05:26,076 --> 00:05:28,078
from 55 to 85 feet depth.
132
00:05:28,245 --> 00:05:29,746
That means we've got a great shot
133
00:05:29,913 --> 00:05:32,707
at bringing up more
of that ceramic-like material.
134
00:05:32,874 --> 00:05:35,168
That would be very valuable.
135
00:05:36,211 --> 00:05:37,963
The hole is several feet south
136
00:05:38,088 --> 00:05:39,756
of where our lateral drill was destroyed
137
00:05:39,923 --> 00:05:42,175
last year in Borehole 2
138
00:05:42,342 --> 00:05:44,636
when it hit something really hard.
139
00:05:46,054 --> 00:05:47,514
What the hell is this?
140
00:05:47,681 --> 00:05:49,266
This is ceramics.
141
00:05:49,432 --> 00:05:50,868
And that's right where we discovered
142
00:05:50,892 --> 00:05:53,186
those interesting ceramic materials.
143
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:54,793
We already drilled one vertical hole
144
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:57,858
in that area this year
and didn't find anything,
145
00:05:58,066 --> 00:06:00,569
so we're hoping
we have better luck here.
146
00:06:00,735 --> 00:06:03,989
We can reach a maximum depth
of 90 feet with this rig,
147
00:06:04,155 --> 00:06:06,324
so, fingers crossed,
we'll find more ceramics
148
00:06:06,491 --> 00:06:08,243
along with irrefutable evidence
149
00:06:08,410 --> 00:06:10,787
of whatever this massive buried object is.
150
00:06:11,788 --> 00:06:13,428
I'm gonna bring my screen
right over here,
151
00:06:13,582 --> 00:06:15,041
and I'm gonna start taking samples
152
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,769
- out of everything that comes out.
- All right.
153
00:06:16,793 --> 00:06:20,046
And if we hit anything
that's manufactured,
154
00:06:20,213 --> 00:06:21,607
that's not natural, we're gonna stop
155
00:06:21,631 --> 00:06:23,071
- and we'll assess that.
- All right.
156
00:06:23,174 --> 00:06:24,593
I'd say we get back to work.
157
00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:26,136
All right.
158
00:06:31,933 --> 00:06:33,977
As the drilling continued deeper
159
00:06:34,185 --> 00:06:37,731
and new core samples
came up to the surface...
160
00:06:40,442 --> 00:06:42,986
Chris and Kaleb
were carefully searching them
161
00:06:43,153 --> 00:06:44,613
- for clues.
- So, look for metal,
162
00:06:44,779 --> 00:06:46,573
look for the ceramic-like material.
163
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:49,242
- Yeah.
- Look for anything that is not natural
164
00:06:49,409 --> 00:06:50,827
within this stuff.
165
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:10,597
What?
166
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:18,897
Hey, Kaleb, look at this, we got metal.
167
00:07:20,982 --> 00:07:22,400
Whoa.
168
00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:27,947
Tom. Tom.
169
00:07:28,114 --> 00:07:29,474
- Have them stop.
- Kill the drill?
170
00:07:29,532 --> 00:07:30,950
Yeah.
171
00:07:32,786 --> 00:07:34,221
- What? -Come look at this.
- We got something
172
00:07:34,245 --> 00:07:36,456
you got to get a look at.
173
00:07:36,623 --> 00:07:38,041
We got metal.
174
00:07:38,208 --> 00:07:39,793
Completely flat.
175
00:07:39,959 --> 00:07:41,169
That looks like it's...
176
00:07:41,336 --> 00:07:43,171
I mean, that's a flake.
177
00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:46,716
Thomas to the science tent.
178
00:07:46,883 --> 00:07:48,319
We've got something pretty interesting
179
00:07:48,343 --> 00:07:50,720
that is coming out
of the spoils down here.
180
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:52,657
You guys want to come down here
and check this out?
181
00:07:52,681 --> 00:07:53,848
Heck yeah, we do.
182
00:07:54,015 --> 00:07:55,475
Absolutely. We'll be right down.
183
00:07:57,769 --> 00:07:59,729
What are we looking at?
184
00:07:59,896 --> 00:08:02,065
We got metal
that matches our thin metal.
185
00:08:02,232 --> 00:08:04,442
- Hey.
- Okay.
186
00:08:04,567 --> 00:08:08,154
This was just sitting
right on top of our last level.
187
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:10,115
60 to 70 feet.
188
00:08:11,074 --> 00:08:12,492
Wow.
189
00:08:12,659 --> 00:08:14,259
Take a look at that. Does that look like
190
00:08:14,285 --> 00:08:16,162
anything that would be
coming off the machine,
191
00:08:16,287 --> 00:08:17,831
through the wear?
192
00:08:17,997 --> 00:08:19,916
Completely different stuff.
193
00:08:20,083 --> 00:08:21,523
The stuff that we see that comes off
194
00:08:21,626 --> 00:08:23,670
from the drill is usually shiny,
195
00:08:23,837 --> 00:08:25,588
'cause it's just getting ripped off.
196
00:08:25,755 --> 00:08:28,466
And you can see that this has rust on it,
197
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:31,052
which means it's not the newer
metal we see on the drill.
198
00:08:31,219 --> 00:08:32,636
All right, gotcha.
199
00:08:34,847 --> 00:08:36,725
Well, you know,
this looks an awful lot like
200
00:08:36,890 --> 00:08:39,227
the material we pulled out down below.
201
00:08:39,394 --> 00:08:41,229
The only caveat is,
this looks a lot thinner.
202
00:08:41,395 --> 00:08:43,106
It's-it's like one layer of it.
203
00:08:43,273 --> 00:08:46,192
As thin as it is,
you can still see, it's layered.
204
00:08:46,359 --> 00:08:47,712
- There's two layers stacked on.
- I... That's what
205
00:08:47,736 --> 00:08:49,654
I'm noticing. It looks just like
206
00:08:49,821 --> 00:08:51,381
the layered materials we found already.
207
00:08:51,489 --> 00:08:53,658
That's fantastic, guys.
208
00:08:55,452 --> 00:08:57,328
What is that?
209
00:08:57,495 --> 00:08:59,306
The metal flakes
Chris just found in the spoils
210
00:08:59,330 --> 00:09:02,042
look very similar to what
we pulled out of the mesa
211
00:09:02,167 --> 00:09:04,127
back in 2021.
212
00:09:04,294 --> 00:09:06,337
Yeah, we definitely want to analyze that.
213
00:09:06,504 --> 00:09:08,173
When we got the metal tested
214
00:09:08,339 --> 00:09:11,176
at the University of Utah,
we were all shocked to learn
215
00:09:11,342 --> 00:09:13,470
these materials appeared manufactured
216
00:09:13,636 --> 00:09:15,930
and contained elements like iron,
217
00:09:16,097 --> 00:09:18,767
aluminum, europium and tellurium.
218
00:09:18,933 --> 00:09:21,269
Believe it or not,
the same kinds of elements
219
00:09:21,436 --> 00:09:23,396
are used to make modern spacecraft.
220
00:09:23,563 --> 00:09:27,692
So, are these metal flakes
more of the same material?
221
00:09:27,859 --> 00:09:30,111
And if so, could we be close
to figuring out
222
00:09:30,278 --> 00:09:31,988
what's actually buried in there?
223
00:09:33,031 --> 00:09:36,242
I've got to get that XRF
instrument on this material.
224
00:09:36,367 --> 00:09:38,661
That could tell us what elements
these are made of.
225
00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:40,705
- Fantastic.
- You guys put the core bit
226
00:09:40,872 --> 00:09:43,750
back on and see if we can get
any kind of chunks out of there.
227
00:09:43,917 --> 00:09:45,126
- Okay.
- Yeah. I want to see
228
00:09:45,293 --> 00:09:46,878
- more of it, so...
- Yes.
229
00:09:47,045 --> 00:09:48,254
Let's get to work.
230
00:09:48,421 --> 00:09:50,090
Absolutely fantastic, guys.
231
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:51,591
Hell yeah.
232
00:09:54,469 --> 00:09:56,888
- So let's, dump this.
- Okay.
233
00:10:04,312 --> 00:10:06,773
- I got the metal. It's just in a baggie.
- Okay. Okay.
234
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:08,751
- Two pieces in there.
- And this is all we've got so far, right?
235
00:10:08,775 --> 00:10:10,235
This is all we got so far.
236
00:10:10,401 --> 00:10:11,694
While drilling continued below
237
00:10:11,861 --> 00:10:13,404
the 70-foot level in the borehole
238
00:10:13,571 --> 00:10:15,031
and new core samples were brought
239
00:10:15,198 --> 00:10:16,699
- to the surface...
- There we go.
240
00:10:16,908 --> 00:10:18,302
Erik and Chris scanned the metal flakes
241
00:10:18,326 --> 00:10:20,286
with a portable XRF machine.
242
00:10:20,453 --> 00:10:22,705
It uses X-rays to determine
243
00:10:22,872 --> 00:10:24,415
the elemental composition of objects.
244
00:10:24,582 --> 00:10:26,042
Let's give it a shot.
245
00:10:26,167 --> 00:10:28,086
It's nice to have the XRF instrument.
246
00:10:28,253 --> 00:10:30,588
It's really convenient to have a device
247
00:10:30,755 --> 00:10:33,007
for analyzing samples on the spot.
248
00:10:33,174 --> 00:10:34,843
This is interesting.
249
00:10:34,968 --> 00:10:36,487
I'm really looking for
any of the trace elements
250
00:10:36,511 --> 00:10:39,931
that showed up in, previous work,
251
00:10:40,098 --> 00:10:42,475
because if it is similar
material, it could mean
252
00:10:42,642 --> 00:10:45,562
it's part of a larger object
inside the mesa.
253
00:10:45,687 --> 00:10:47,772
Okay, we are seeing
a lot of light element.
254
00:10:47,939 --> 00:10:49,899
We've got the iron and aluminum.
255
00:10:50,108 --> 00:10:53,570
The relatively high abundance
of, iron and aluminum
256
00:10:53,736 --> 00:10:55,464
- lines up with what we've seen before.
- Right.
257
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:58,032
But, look, what
I'm not seeing in this analysis
258
00:10:58,199 --> 00:11:00,618
is the europium,
259
00:11:00,827 --> 00:11:02,328
I don't see tellurium,
260
00:11:02,495 --> 00:11:05,331
- like we've seen in those past metal samples.
- Yeah.
261
00:11:05,498 --> 00:11:07,268
But I think the right
thing for us to do is to get
262
00:11:07,292 --> 00:11:08,892
this material and any more that you find
263
00:11:09,043 --> 00:11:11,880
into a more powerful microscope
in the lab
264
00:11:12,005 --> 00:11:14,215
where we have that elemental, analysis
265
00:11:14,382 --> 00:11:16,509
and mapping capability.
266
00:11:16,676 --> 00:11:18,178
We need to get more of this material
267
00:11:18,386 --> 00:11:21,055
and whatever else we can
bring up from this hole.
268
00:11:21,222 --> 00:11:22,782
Well, I think I need to head down there
269
00:11:22,932 --> 00:11:24,267
and see what else we find, too.
270
00:11:24,434 --> 00:11:26,144
- There could be more.
- Yeah.
271
00:11:26,311 --> 00:11:27,663
- It's pretty impressive.
- All right.
272
00:11:27,687 --> 00:11:29,439
- I'll be back.
- All right.
273
00:11:29,606 --> 00:11:31,524
We need to get these samples
274
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:34,402
to the university for analysis
because we may be able
275
00:11:34,569 --> 00:11:37,822
to determine the origins of these metals
276
00:11:37,989 --> 00:11:39,782
inside the mesa.
277
00:11:41,659 --> 00:11:43,036
Anything?
278
00:11:43,203 --> 00:11:45,288
- No, not that I'm seeing, but...
- Okay.
279
00:11:45,455 --> 00:11:47,248
I don't have an eye like you, Chris.
280
00:11:47,415 --> 00:11:49,334
At 70 feet, we found metal pieces
281
00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:52,754
that clearly didn't belong
in the sandstone mesa.
282
00:11:52,921 --> 00:11:56,007
But as Chris searched the next
15 feet of drilling cores,
283
00:11:56,174 --> 00:11:58,676
he couldn't find any more signs of metal,
284
00:11:58,843 --> 00:12:00,970
ceramics or anything strange.
285
00:12:01,137 --> 00:12:04,390
All right, just finish off the last few feet?
286
00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:06,684
Yeah, sounds good.
287
00:12:06,809 --> 00:12:08,978
The drill could only reach 90 feet,
288
00:12:09,187 --> 00:12:12,649
so it was do-or-die time
for this hole at that point.
289
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,748
What the heck just happened?
290
00:12:29,749 --> 00:12:31,292
- We just broke a hose?
- Yep.
291
00:12:31,459 --> 00:12:33,670
That thing was spraying like crazy.
292
00:12:34,671 --> 00:12:36,256
It's spraying.
293
00:12:45,556 --> 00:12:47,267
Blew a hydraulic line.
294
00:12:47,433 --> 00:12:48,753
Right-right from that neck there?
295
00:12:48,851 --> 00:12:50,270
- It looks like it.
- Yeah, yeah.
296
00:12:52,605 --> 00:12:56,276
So, you saw where it was leaking.
297
00:12:58,319 --> 00:13:01,614
- Think you'll be able to fix it, on-site?
- No.
298
00:13:02,824 --> 00:13:04,575
No drilling, right?
299
00:13:04,742 --> 00:13:06,160
- I don't see it turning.
- No.
300
00:13:08,830 --> 00:13:10,415
Hey, Thomas, you copy?
301
00:13:12,834 --> 00:13:14,210
Go ahead, Erik.
302
00:13:14,377 --> 00:13:15,795
What's going on down there?
303
00:13:15,962 --> 00:13:17,422
The drill broke a hydraulic line,
304
00:13:17,630 --> 00:13:18,840
and they're not gonna be able
305
00:13:18,965 --> 00:13:20,216
to fix it today.
306
00:13:20,425 --> 00:13:21,843
Do you know the,
307
00:13:22,010 --> 00:13:23,428
the depth we're at right now?
308
00:13:23,594 --> 00:13:25,596
We're about at 86 feet.
309
00:13:25,763 --> 00:13:27,890
Four feet from, being at the bottom.
310
00:13:28,057 --> 00:13:29,350
Yeah, copy that.
311
00:13:29,517 --> 00:13:31,269
I say we get down there.
312
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:34,897
Is it messed up?
313
00:13:35,106 --> 00:13:37,400
Yeah. It's messed up.
314
00:13:37,525 --> 00:13:39,986
Yeah, the drill only goes down to 90 feet,
315
00:13:40,153 --> 00:13:43,489
so I think pretty much shoots
that third hole in the foot.
316
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:45,408
- Yeah.
- Yeah. Right?
317
00:13:45,575 --> 00:13:48,453
The drill breaking
down is a minor setback.
318
00:13:48,619 --> 00:13:50,329
The real problem here is
319
00:13:50,496 --> 00:13:52,040
understanding why we found
320
00:13:52,165 --> 00:13:54,500
a couple of small pieces of rusted metal
321
00:13:54,709 --> 00:13:57,211
that may be some kind
of manufactured material,
322
00:13:57,378 --> 00:14:00,506
and in the same general area
that we found the ceramics.
323
00:14:00,673 --> 00:14:03,885
Is it possible that we just nicked
324
00:14:04,052 --> 00:14:06,721
one of the smaller anomalies
that our GPR data showed
325
00:14:06,846 --> 00:14:08,973
surrounding the main object?
326
00:14:09,140 --> 00:14:11,267
I'm happy with the fact that we found
327
00:14:11,434 --> 00:14:13,394
something in this hole, so...
328
00:14:13,561 --> 00:14:16,481
- Absolutely, metal came out of this hole.
- Yep.
329
00:14:16,647 --> 00:14:18,858
All we can be sure of at this point
330
00:14:19,067 --> 00:14:21,861
is that these metal samples
need to be tested in a lab
331
00:14:22,070 --> 00:14:24,572
and we have to drill another
hole as soon as possible.
332
00:14:24,739 --> 00:14:26,282
So the corrective action
333
00:14:26,407 --> 00:14:28,167
is you-you got to get
some replacement parts?
334
00:14:28,201 --> 00:14:30,369
Yeah, so we'll, we'll hustle,
try to get this into town
335
00:14:30,536 --> 00:14:32,205
before anybody closes.
336
00:14:32,371 --> 00:14:33,766
Sounds like we're done for the day.
337
00:14:33,790 --> 00:14:35,833
Yeah.
338
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,752
That's frustrating.
339
00:14:44,509 --> 00:14:46,636
- How's it going, fellas?
- Lovely.
340
00:14:46,803 --> 00:14:48,638
How are you?
341
00:14:48,805 --> 00:14:50,515
- Good to have you back.
- It was gonna be
342
00:14:50,681 --> 00:14:52,642
a few days before the drill was repaired,
343
00:14:52,767 --> 00:14:55,019
so the next day we invited Allen Isdell
344
00:14:55,228 --> 00:14:58,564
and the team from LOC Precision
rockets back to the ranch
345
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:01,734
for a new, specialized rocket
experiment at the triangle.
346
00:15:02,819 --> 00:15:04,779
You know, there's
an ongoing discussion about why
347
00:15:04,987 --> 00:15:06,307
we love to launch so many rockets
348
00:15:06,364 --> 00:15:08,032
out here at the triangle,
349
00:15:08,199 --> 00:15:09,639
and I would say it's because rockets
350
00:15:09,826 --> 00:15:11,494
are one of the simplest and best tools
351
00:15:11,661 --> 00:15:13,830
- to investigate this airspace.
- Yep.
352
00:15:13,996 --> 00:15:15,748
We did an experiment with drones,
353
00:15:15,915 --> 00:15:17,500
and the data suggests
354
00:15:17,708 --> 00:15:19,710
that there's some kind
of weird magnetic anomaly
355
00:15:19,877 --> 00:15:23,631
at about 750 to at least 1,000 feet high,
356
00:15:23,798 --> 00:15:26,050
directly above the launch tower.
357
00:15:26,217 --> 00:15:28,386
Drones are rolling.
358
00:15:28,553 --> 00:15:29,793
During a drone swarm experiment
359
00:15:29,846 --> 00:15:31,180
a couple of weeks ago...
360
00:15:31,389 --> 00:15:33,391
Looks like the swarm
is getting movement
361
00:15:33,558 --> 00:15:35,393
all throughout the formation.
362
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,770
Whoa! It almost hit it.
363
00:15:37,937 --> 00:15:40,773
The drones went haywire
when they encountered
364
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:44,318
something giving off a massive
amount of electromagnetic energy
365
00:15:44,443 --> 00:15:47,572
between 750 and 1,000 feet.
366
00:15:47,738 --> 00:15:49,657
In addition, several of our experiments
367
00:15:49,866 --> 00:15:51,826
have helped us gather more evidence
368
00:15:51,993 --> 00:15:56,247
of some kind of invisible blob
31 feet high above the triangle
369
00:15:56,414 --> 00:16:00,209
that seems to physically divert
small rockets, electricity,
370
00:16:00,376 --> 00:16:02,128
and even smoke away from the area.
371
00:16:03,171 --> 00:16:06,507
So, since the triangle is at
the dead center of the bubble,
372
00:16:06,674 --> 00:16:08,426
tonight we want to gather more data
373
00:16:08,593 --> 00:16:11,554
on whatever is lingering there
in both of those areas.
374
00:16:11,721 --> 00:16:14,765
We'll also be able to gather
more data in the zone
375
00:16:14,932 --> 00:16:17,852
where Pete's lidar scanner
showed all those GPS errors
376
00:16:18,019 --> 00:16:19,478
at the triangle.
377
00:16:20,688 --> 00:16:22,690
So that's why today
our hopes are to launch
378
00:16:22,857 --> 00:16:25,568
as many rockets as we can get up
through our areas of interest
379
00:16:25,735 --> 00:16:27,987
with all the high-speed assets
recording it.
380
00:16:28,154 --> 00:16:29,572
Yeah, we've got you covered.
381
00:16:29,739 --> 00:16:31,282
We've got a couple motors ready.
382
00:16:31,407 --> 00:16:33,701
We can push it up above
the 3,200 mark.
383
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:35,328
That's gonna be fantastic.
384
00:16:35,494 --> 00:16:38,122
The plan is to launch
different-sized rockets
385
00:16:38,247 --> 00:16:40,583
right through our two target zones:
386
00:16:40,750 --> 00:16:45,588
the 31-foot mark of the blob
and the 750-to-1,000-foot zone
387
00:16:45,755 --> 00:16:49,008
where we've detected
that electromagnetic anomaly.
388
00:16:49,175 --> 00:16:51,719
Some of these rockets
will be able to go even higher,
389
00:16:51,844 --> 00:16:55,389
up to a max altitude of about 3,500 feet,
390
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:58,476
which we believe
is above the top of the bubble.
391
00:16:58,643 --> 00:17:00,311
They'll be outfitted with instruments
392
00:17:00,478 --> 00:17:03,898
to measure things like
their airspeed, GPS position,
393
00:17:04,065 --> 00:17:06,776
and even if they encounter
electromagnetic charges.
394
00:17:06,943 --> 00:17:08,694
This will help us record data
395
00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:12,573
that we can compare both inside
and outside of the bubble.
396
00:17:12,740 --> 00:17:15,367
All right, well, we still
got a lot of setup to do.
397
00:17:15,534 --> 00:17:17,619
- Let's just go do it.
- Let's get after it.
398
00:17:17,828 --> 00:17:19,955
I got to set my stuff up
back at the command center.
399
00:17:20,122 --> 00:17:21,749
- Let's get moving.
- Okay.
400
00:17:23,166 --> 00:17:25,044
- This one looks good.
- In addition
401
00:17:25,211 --> 00:17:27,964
to that rocket data, we'll also be using
402
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:29,590
several high-speed cameras
403
00:17:29,757 --> 00:17:31,259
positioned all around the triangle.
404
00:17:31,467 --> 00:17:32,802
Yeah, I think we're good, guys.
405
00:17:32,969 --> 00:17:34,595
Some of these will be feeding directly
406
00:17:34,762 --> 00:17:37,098
into Erik's Meta-Frame video software,
407
00:17:37,306 --> 00:17:39,976
which will allow us to catch
things in the processed data
408
00:17:40,142 --> 00:17:42,895
we might not notice
with the naked eye in real time.
409
00:17:44,272 --> 00:17:46,399
- These should be ready to go.
- Fantastic.
410
00:17:46,524 --> 00:17:47,900
You know, what we should do is...
411
00:17:48,109 --> 00:17:49,753
let's start with one of the smaller rockets
412
00:17:49,777 --> 00:17:52,405
like the ones we usually use
during our experiments.
413
00:17:52,572 --> 00:17:54,198
Let's get 'em loaded, let's launch.
414
00:17:54,365 --> 00:17:55,992
All right, let's go.
415
00:18:02,206 --> 00:18:04,208
All right, we're
getting ready to launch, guys.
416
00:18:04,375 --> 00:18:07,003
- Call Erik.
- Rockets are hot, Erik.
417
00:18:07,128 --> 00:18:08,588
Copy that, Thomas.
418
00:18:08,754 --> 00:18:10,298
For the first launch,
419
00:18:10,506 --> 00:18:12,675
we're using a smaller rocket
without instruments
420
00:18:12,842 --> 00:18:14,760
that can go 1,500 feet high.
421
00:18:14,885 --> 00:18:16,345
- All right.
- That one's hot.
422
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:18,192
Let's clear out. We're hot. Everybody out.
423
00:18:18,347 --> 00:18:20,600
We just want to test if it can
actually make it through
424
00:18:20,725 --> 00:18:22,476
the 31-foot blob area
425
00:18:22,643 --> 00:18:25,104
and the 750-to-1,000-foot area
426
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:27,106
without getting damaged or diverted.
427
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:29,400
All right, five, four,
428
00:18:29,525 --> 00:18:32,486
three, two, one.
429
00:18:34,905 --> 00:18:36,324
It wiggled.
430
00:18:36,490 --> 00:18:37,742
It wiggled. Did you see that?
431
00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:39,285
Big-time.
432
00:18:40,911 --> 00:18:43,706
It appeared that the rocket
wiggled going up.
433
00:18:44,665 --> 00:18:45,958
Yeah, what I saw,
434
00:18:46,125 --> 00:18:48,002
looked like something was pushing on it.
435
00:18:52,715 --> 00:18:54,133
Yep.
436
00:18:55,176 --> 00:18:57,345
All right, so, we need
to get someone up there
437
00:18:57,511 --> 00:18:58,763
and get the rocket.
438
00:18:58,888 --> 00:19:00,681
Yeah, I'll go grab it.
439
00:19:00,806 --> 00:19:02,016
Right after launching,
440
00:19:02,224 --> 00:19:03,768
the rocket started shaking
441
00:19:03,934 --> 00:19:05,728
like something stunted its thrust,
442
00:19:05,895 --> 00:19:07,730
and then it veered off from the triangle
443
00:19:07,897 --> 00:19:10,399
and broke apart like
it collided with another object.
444
00:19:12,693 --> 00:19:14,487
Wow. Look at that.
445
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:16,989
The parachute actually
just ripped right out.
446
00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:20,034
It actually broke the plywood.
447
00:19:20,201 --> 00:19:22,012
- Well, that's interesting.
- Would that be more
448
00:19:22,036 --> 00:19:23,555
- of the chute charge?
- I wonder if we got too much power.
449
00:19:23,579 --> 00:19:25,623
I don't know. Let's talk
to those guys and see.
450
00:19:27,208 --> 00:19:30,419
Check this out. Ripped the bulkhead out.
451
00:19:30,628 --> 00:19:31,879
- Okay.
- Why?
452
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:33,673
- I don't...
- Here.
453
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:36,425
- Here you go. Look.
- Doesn't happen that often, but yeah.
454
00:19:37,885 --> 00:19:40,805
See how it just
ripped it right out down there?
455
00:19:40,971 --> 00:19:43,224
- That takes a lot of force.
- Whoa.
456
00:19:43,391 --> 00:19:45,559
- Isn't that weird?
- Wow. -Yeah.
457
00:19:46,644 --> 00:19:48,562
- That's...
- That is weird.
458
00:19:48,688 --> 00:19:50,624
The last time you were here,
we had that one blow apart.
459
00:19:50,648 --> 00:19:52,168
- Right.
- We've had a bunch do that...
460
00:19:52,316 --> 00:19:54,527
- And that cord ripped apart.
- Yeah.
461
00:19:54,694 --> 00:19:57,113
Yeah. Which happened
about the same spot
462
00:19:57,279 --> 00:19:59,156
we saw this rocket wiggle.
463
00:19:59,323 --> 00:20:00,908
Right.
464
00:20:01,075 --> 00:20:02,868
That's the third rocket this year
465
00:20:03,035 --> 00:20:04,495
that not only got pushed away
466
00:20:04,662 --> 00:20:06,789
from the 31-foot mark above the triangle
467
00:20:06,956 --> 00:20:09,875
but also had its interior
parachute cord severed.
468
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:12,670
Those things can take
up to 500 pounds of force.
469
00:20:12,837 --> 00:20:15,131
So, given that
the rocket broke apart, too,
470
00:20:15,297 --> 00:20:17,800
could it have been destroyed
by the blob?
471
00:20:17,925 --> 00:20:20,469
What do you want us
to prepare for next?
472
00:20:20,636 --> 00:20:22,722
Well, I think it's time
473
00:20:22,847 --> 00:20:26,058
to try one of the larger rockets
with instruments on it.
474
00:20:26,267 --> 00:20:28,436
- Let's get some hard data.
- Okay.
475
00:20:28,602 --> 00:20:30,438
- We'll get that ready.
- Okay.
476
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,774
This six-foot-tall
rocket has telemetry instruments
477
00:20:33,941 --> 00:20:36,068
that will allow us to track its speed,
478
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:39,864
altitude and GPS location in real time,
479
00:20:40,030 --> 00:20:42,783
and it'll reach an altitude of 3,500 feet
480
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:44,535
with a lot more thrust.
481
00:20:45,578 --> 00:20:47,458
- All right. Need an igniter? Got it?
- Igniter.
482
00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:49,039
It should be able to pass
483
00:20:49,165 --> 00:20:51,167
straight up through both zones of interest
484
00:20:51,333 --> 00:20:53,794
unless something physically stops it.
485
00:20:53,961 --> 00:20:56,589
And if that happens,
we should be able to confirm
486
00:20:56,756 --> 00:20:58,215
where it actually occurred.
487
00:20:58,382 --> 00:21:00,092
Erik, we're ready to go
488
00:21:00,259 --> 00:21:01,594
with the second rocket launch.
489
00:21:01,761 --> 00:21:03,929
- Are you ready?
- Copy that.
490
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:06,098
I'm ready at the command center.
491
00:21:06,307 --> 00:21:09,518
- Here we go.
- Going hot.
492
00:21:09,685 --> 00:21:13,230
Going in five, four, three,
493
00:21:13,397 --> 00:21:15,649
two, one.
494
00:21:17,651 --> 00:21:19,612
My god.
495
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:22,072
- That one went, dude.
- Holy smokes.
496
00:21:23,115 --> 00:21:25,034
- How high?
- 22...
497
00:21:25,201 --> 00:21:26,702
Last altitude: 2,284 feet.
498
00:21:26,869 --> 00:21:28,537
Chute. We got a chute.
499
00:21:28,746 --> 00:21:31,540
So that's about
200 feet above the bubble.
500
00:21:31,749 --> 00:21:34,460
Now, that rocket
cruised up there with ease,
501
00:21:34,668 --> 00:21:38,881
but it was strange
how it maxed out at 2,200 feet.
502
00:21:39,006 --> 00:21:42,218
It should have gone
more than 1,000 feet higher.
503
00:21:42,426 --> 00:21:45,429
I've got my eyes on it. It has not moved.
504
00:21:45,596 --> 00:21:48,432
Look, it's stalled right there. It's stalled.
505
00:21:48,599 --> 00:21:51,477
It's like it's stuck at the top of the bubble.
506
00:21:51,644 --> 00:21:53,979
Right as our rocket
was descending back down
507
00:21:54,188 --> 00:21:55,898
to the triangle, it suddenly looked like
508
00:21:56,106 --> 00:21:57,817
it was being held still
509
00:21:57,983 --> 00:22:00,402
by something about 2,000 feet in the air.
510
00:22:00,528 --> 00:22:03,280
That's the exact height
we've determined for the bubble
511
00:22:03,405 --> 00:22:05,032
in our past experiments.
512
00:22:05,199 --> 00:22:08,744
So is that what stopped it
from reaching max altitude
513
00:22:08,911 --> 00:22:12,081
and then grabbed ahold of it
as it started to descend?
514
00:22:12,206 --> 00:22:14,959
Ooh. It's coming down now.
515
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,878
23 feet per second fall rate.
516
00:22:18,045 --> 00:22:20,005
Okay.
517
00:22:20,130 --> 00:22:23,634
The rocket is now
northwest at 39 degrees.
518
00:22:23,801 --> 00:22:25,761
Holy crap, look at that.
519
00:22:25,886 --> 00:22:28,180
It's falling away from the triangle.
520
00:22:28,389 --> 00:22:29,723
That's a heavy rocket.
521
00:22:29,890 --> 00:22:31,767
It should be coming straight down.
522
00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:36,272
2,000 feet.
523
00:22:37,273 --> 00:22:39,817
Just, it land... it landed 2,000 feet away.
524
00:22:40,025 --> 00:22:43,696
- No way.
- It landed 2,000 feet.
525
00:22:43,904 --> 00:22:45,340
- It's right at the edge of the bubble.
- It landed
526
00:22:45,364 --> 00:22:47,867
on the edge... north edge of the bubble.
527
00:22:48,033 --> 00:22:50,995
Erik, that rocket just landed
528
00:22:51,161 --> 00:22:53,372
2,000 feet away from where it launched.
529
00:22:53,539 --> 00:22:55,374
Now, that's suggestive, isn't it?
530
00:22:55,541 --> 00:22:56,834
Yeah.
531
00:22:57,001 --> 00:22:58,335
If you watched it fall,
532
00:22:58,502 --> 00:22:59,938
it looked like it was just sliding down
533
00:22:59,962 --> 00:23:01,422
the edge of the bubble.
534
00:23:01,589 --> 00:23:03,007
Okay, copy that.
535
00:23:03,173 --> 00:23:04,508
That rocket launched
536
00:23:04,675 --> 00:23:05,902
from the dead center of the bubble,
537
00:23:05,926 --> 00:23:07,469
but when it came back down,
538
00:23:07,636 --> 00:23:09,763
it fell like it was sliding down something
539
00:23:09,930 --> 00:23:13,434
until it landed on the ground
2,000 feet away.
540
00:23:13,601 --> 00:23:16,353
That's the exact distance
from the center of the triangle
541
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,272
to the edge of the bubble.
542
00:23:18,439 --> 00:23:20,649
That's too crazy to be a coincidence.
543
00:23:20,816 --> 00:23:22,401
You know what? Let's go launch
544
00:23:22,526 --> 00:23:24,403
another one of the big rockets.
545
00:23:24,570 --> 00:23:26,030
This time let's use the one
546
00:23:26,196 --> 00:23:28,657
- with the high-speed cameras on it.
- Okay.
547
00:23:30,034 --> 00:23:31,535
Erik, be advised, they're walking out
548
00:23:31,702 --> 00:23:33,245
to the launchpad right now.
549
00:23:33,412 --> 00:23:35,247
Okay, we're gonna launch the rocket
550
00:23:35,414 --> 00:23:37,708
- with the cameras on it.
- Yeah, copy that.
551
00:23:38,792 --> 00:23:40,878
For the next rocket launch, we have
552
00:23:41,045 --> 00:23:42,504
a rocket with an upward-facing
553
00:23:42,671 --> 00:23:44,465
and downward-facing action camera
554
00:23:44,632 --> 00:23:46,675
that allows us to see from both
555
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:48,445
in the direction that the rocket is traveling
556
00:23:48,469 --> 00:23:50,363
as well as looking back down
towards the triangle.
557
00:23:50,387 --> 00:23:52,765
You can come forward. Got it.
558
00:23:52,932 --> 00:23:54,516
We're hoping to document
559
00:23:54,683 --> 00:23:57,227
those weird effects
from the bubble again,
560
00:23:57,394 --> 00:24:00,564
as well as our primary targets
we've called "the blob"
561
00:24:00,731 --> 00:24:04,568
and that magnetic anomaly
from 750 to 1,000 feet.
562
00:24:04,735 --> 00:24:06,403
All right.
563
00:24:06,528 --> 00:24:07,988
Erik, be advised,
564
00:24:08,155 --> 00:24:10,699
the rockets are on the pad,
we're ready to go.
565
00:24:10,908 --> 00:24:12,910
Are you ready for a launch?
566
00:24:13,077 --> 00:24:14,828
Yeah, Thomas, I'm standing by, ready.
567
00:24:14,995 --> 00:24:16,330
Everything's running.
568
00:24:17,915 --> 00:24:19,625
Pads armed. In five,
569
00:24:19,792 --> 00:24:22,753
four, three, two, one.
570
00:24:26,632 --> 00:24:30,678
Wow. Golly, that dude is up there, man.
571
00:24:34,473 --> 00:24:36,100
Hang on a minute.
572
00:24:37,643 --> 00:24:40,270
It ain't gonna open.
573
00:24:40,437 --> 00:24:42,398
Something's happened
to the chute again.
574
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,027
Shoot.
575
00:24:50,155 --> 00:24:51,949
Something's happening
to the chute again.
576
00:24:52,116 --> 00:24:54,618
She's flapping. Hang on a minute.
577
00:24:57,454 --> 00:25:01,000
That sounded...
That did not sound good at all.
578
00:25:01,125 --> 00:25:02,519
You want to try and find it, Thomas?
579
00:25:02,543 --> 00:25:03,979
- Yeah, I'll go grab it.
- We need that
580
00:25:04,003 --> 00:25:06,088
'cause that has camera footage on it.
581
00:25:06,255 --> 00:25:08,173
Dang.
582
00:25:08,340 --> 00:25:09,883
After a five-foot rocket
583
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:11,929
flew straight up through
the center of the bubble
584
00:25:11,969 --> 00:25:14,763
and reached more than
3,000 feet in the air,
585
00:25:14,930 --> 00:25:16,490
something made
its parachute get tangled
586
00:25:16,598 --> 00:25:18,642
and it crashed to the ground.
587
00:25:18,767 --> 00:25:20,060
Hey, Travis.
588
00:25:20,269 --> 00:25:22,563
Cameras from the rocket are good to go.
589
00:25:22,730 --> 00:25:24,064
Copy that.
590
00:25:24,231 --> 00:25:26,400
I can't wait to check that video.
591
00:25:26,525 --> 00:25:29,069
Luckily, the cameras
seemed to be intact.
592
00:25:29,236 --> 00:25:31,613
So maybe we captured
something that might
593
00:25:31,780 --> 00:25:33,323
help us figure out what happened.
594
00:25:33,490 --> 00:25:36,368
Hey, guys, we're burning
daylight pretty quick,
595
00:25:36,535 --> 00:25:38,746
so let's reset everything
for night launches.
596
00:25:38,912 --> 00:25:40,539
- Okay.
- Let's do it.
597
00:25:41,498 --> 00:25:43,959
Now we got pad three.
598
00:25:44,126 --> 00:25:45,836
After those crazy daylight launches,
599
00:25:46,003 --> 00:25:47,880
we're gonna wait for the sun to go down
600
00:25:48,005 --> 00:25:49,631
before we launch any more.
601
00:25:49,798 --> 00:25:51,884
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
602
00:25:52,051 --> 00:25:54,762
If things like the blob or UAPs above it
603
00:25:54,887 --> 00:25:56,638
are physically affecting these rockets,
604
00:25:56,764 --> 00:25:58,140
we might have a better chance
605
00:25:58,348 --> 00:26:00,642
of seeing them against the night sky.
606
00:26:00,768 --> 00:26:02,853
All right, I think we're ready.
607
00:26:03,020 --> 00:26:04,438
Before it gets too dark,
608
00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:06,815
everybody just meet
back here at the tent.
609
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:13,322
All right, next up
is the rocket with the coil.
610
00:26:13,447 --> 00:26:16,075
The coil rocket. Let's go.
611
00:26:16,241 --> 00:26:18,011
One of the customized
rockets for this experiment
612
00:26:18,035 --> 00:26:22,206
has been equipped
with a coil of copper wire
613
00:26:22,372 --> 00:26:25,709
to assist in the measurement of
any unusual magnetic conditions.
614
00:26:25,876 --> 00:26:29,755
So, as the rocket passes through
that magnetic anomaly
615
00:26:29,922 --> 00:26:32,716
between 750 and 1,000 feet,
616
00:26:32,883 --> 00:26:34,760
we'll see if any voltages
are being generated
617
00:26:34,885 --> 00:26:37,888
that we can record
and try to better understand
618
00:26:38,055 --> 00:26:39,932
what could be causing them.
619
00:26:40,974 --> 00:26:42,786
All right. Are the other
instruments ready to go?
620
00:26:42,810 --> 00:26:44,436
Yep, we're good.
621
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:47,106
In addition to the copper coil,
622
00:26:47,272 --> 00:26:50,526
this rocket will also have the
same data-tracking instruments
623
00:26:50,692 --> 00:26:53,570
like altitude, speed and GPS.
624
00:26:53,737 --> 00:26:55,657
That way, we can compare
the rocket's flight data
625
00:26:55,823 --> 00:26:57,699
to any magnetic anomalies
626
00:26:57,908 --> 00:26:59,785
it encounters above the triangle.
627
00:26:59,952 --> 00:27:01,620
We are hot.
628
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:05,666
All right, Erik, we are ready
to launch in, ten seconds.
629
00:27:05,833 --> 00:27:09,211
- Copy that, Travis.
- Going in five,
630
00:27:09,378 --> 00:27:11,588
four, three,
631
00:27:11,755 --> 00:27:14,299
two, one.
632
00:27:18,512 --> 00:27:19,930
Wow.
633
00:27:20,931 --> 00:27:22,808
3,400 feet.
634
00:27:26,812 --> 00:27:28,522
It's dropping fast.
635
00:27:28,689 --> 00:27:31,024
It's dropping fast.
The chute is not deploying.
636
00:27:31,984 --> 00:27:34,361
Guys, she's coming in hot.
637
00:27:37,322 --> 00:27:38,866
That's crazy.
638
00:27:39,032 --> 00:27:41,368
- That's a heavy-duty lawn dart.
- Yep.
639
00:27:41,535 --> 00:27:43,036
My god.
640
00:27:43,203 --> 00:27:44,997
Dang.
641
00:27:45,163 --> 00:27:47,141
All right, I'm gonna go get
in my jeep and go get it.
642
00:27:47,165 --> 00:27:49,376
- Kaleb, you want to go with me?
- Yes.
643
00:27:49,543 --> 00:27:51,837
I think it's on the other side of the canal.
644
00:27:52,004 --> 00:27:54,798
This is the third time today
that the parachute
645
00:27:54,965 --> 00:27:56,842
on one of the rockets we launched
646
00:27:56,967 --> 00:27:58,468
didn't deploy like it should have.
647
00:27:58,635 --> 00:28:00,512
We couldn't see anything in the moment
648
00:28:00,679 --> 00:28:01,889
that might explain it.
649
00:28:02,055 --> 00:28:04,099
So what the heck happened?
650
00:28:05,142 --> 00:28:06,476
My gosh.
651
00:28:06,643 --> 00:28:08,896
Thing's, like, three feet in the ground.
652
00:28:09,062 --> 00:28:11,022
Look, that's... they didn't...
the chute didn't...
653
00:28:11,106 --> 00:28:13,400
It didn't even unfurl.
654
00:28:15,027 --> 00:28:17,029
All right, let's see.
655
00:28:19,615 --> 00:28:22,034
Goddang, it's in there, dude.
656
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,453
You got it.
657
00:28:24,620 --> 00:28:27,122
God, look at the dirt in that, too, though.
658
00:28:27,289 --> 00:28:30,042
- Dang.
- That's nuts.
659
00:28:30,167 --> 00:28:32,377
At least the cone is in one piece.
660
00:28:32,586 --> 00:28:34,212
Hopefully, that means we should be able
661
00:28:34,379 --> 00:28:35,923
to get good data out of it.
662
00:28:36,089 --> 00:28:40,886
I wonder why that,
that failed the way it did.
663
00:28:41,887 --> 00:28:43,805
Unlike the last rocket
664
00:28:43,972 --> 00:28:46,391
that seemed to have a tangled
parachute after it deployed,
665
00:28:46,558 --> 00:28:47,935
this one's didn't deploy at all.
666
00:28:48,101 --> 00:28:49,686
Could that mean something up there,
667
00:28:49,853 --> 00:28:52,064
maybe in the electromagnetic zone,
668
00:28:52,230 --> 00:28:54,441
shorted out the rocket's systems?
669
00:28:54,566 --> 00:28:57,152
Hopefully, we can recover data
to help us figure out
670
00:28:57,319 --> 00:29:00,656
if this was a malfunction
or something much stranger.
671
00:29:01,740 --> 00:29:04,076
Thomas, why don't you guys
get the final rocket ready
672
00:29:04,242 --> 00:29:05,577
with the LED lights?
673
00:29:05,786 --> 00:29:07,829
That'll be our last launch for the evening.
674
00:29:07,996 --> 00:29:10,499
Copy that. We'll get going on it now.
675
00:29:10,707 --> 00:29:12,751
Yeah, copy. I'll be standing by.
676
00:29:12,918 --> 00:29:16,630
The final rocket has been
outfitted with external,
677
00:29:16,797 --> 00:29:18,882
very bright LED illumination.
678
00:29:19,007 --> 00:29:22,010
This illumination enables us to really see
679
00:29:22,177 --> 00:29:23,971
the full trajectory of the rockets
680
00:29:24,137 --> 00:29:27,641
on our cameras much better
than earlier in the day
681
00:29:27,766 --> 00:29:30,435
and see if there are
any anomalous changes
682
00:29:30,602 --> 00:29:32,437
on the way up or the way down.
683
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:34,690
All right, on goes the light.
684
00:29:34,856 --> 00:29:36,358
Nice.
685
00:29:36,525 --> 00:29:37,776
We will be able to compare that
686
00:29:37,985 --> 00:29:39,705
to the flight path data
from the instruments
687
00:29:39,820 --> 00:29:41,113
on the rocket itself.
688
00:29:41,279 --> 00:29:42,781
That's awesome, dude.
689
00:29:42,990 --> 00:29:45,659
- How we doing, fellas?
- We're, we're good.
690
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:47,744
All right. Heck yeah.
691
00:29:47,911 --> 00:29:50,372
The rocket is hot on the launch tower.
692
00:29:50,539 --> 00:29:52,749
We're gonna launch this thing
in less than ten seconds.
693
00:29:52,916 --> 00:29:54,626
Copy that. Standing by for launch.
694
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:56,336
On you, Allen.
695
00:29:56,503 --> 00:29:58,005
Systems armed,
696
00:29:58,171 --> 00:30:00,215
going in five,
697
00:30:00,382 --> 00:30:04,928
four, three, two, one.
698
00:30:08,265 --> 00:30:10,684
- Wow. - Now, that's a rocket.
- Wow.
699
00:30:10,851 --> 00:30:12,394
That was freakin' awesome.
700
00:30:12,561 --> 00:30:14,187
Holy crap, look at that.
701
00:30:15,188 --> 00:30:17,149
That thing's still going.
702
00:30:17,315 --> 00:30:19,985
- Chute. We got a chute.
- Chute. Yeah.
703
00:30:21,653 --> 00:30:23,822
It's straight overhead right now.
704
00:30:23,989 --> 00:30:25,657
What elevation's it at?
705
00:30:25,824 --> 00:30:27,242
2,200.
706
00:30:27,409 --> 00:30:29,077
- 22?
- Yeah.
707
00:30:29,244 --> 00:30:30,972
So it's just about
to hit the bubble boundary.
708
00:30:30,996 --> 00:30:33,248
It's at 2,200 feet right now, Erik.
709
00:30:33,415 --> 00:30:35,792
Copy that. 2,200.
710
00:30:39,796 --> 00:30:41,673
- Look at that, hey.
- Look at that.
711
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,258
What's going on here?
712
00:30:43,467 --> 00:30:44,718
Look at that.
713
00:30:44,885 --> 00:30:46,428
It looks like it's suddenly veered off
714
00:30:46,595 --> 00:30:47,804
in a different direction.
715
00:30:47,971 --> 00:30:49,264
- Yeah.
- Yep.
716
00:30:49,431 --> 00:30:51,308
Dude, that thing's way over there.
717
00:30:52,309 --> 00:30:53,935
Where is it going?
718
00:30:56,938 --> 00:30:58,315
Damn, you see that?
719
00:30:58,482 --> 00:31:00,817
Yeah, look at that.
720
00:31:01,026 --> 00:31:02,420
It looks like it's suddenly veered off
721
00:31:02,444 --> 00:31:04,529
in a different direction.
722
00:31:04,696 --> 00:31:08,033
Yeah. It looked like
it jetted the wrong direction.
723
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,993
Now it looks like it's drifting away
724
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,913
- outside the bubble boundary.
- Yeah.
725
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,332
Dude, that thing's way over there.
726
00:31:15,499 --> 00:31:17,226
Yeah, Travis, at the current rate of travel,
727
00:31:17,250 --> 00:31:19,628
looks like it might end up
over here close to my location
728
00:31:19,795 --> 00:31:22,339
- at the command center.
- Wow.
729
00:31:22,547 --> 00:31:24,174
Once again,
730
00:31:24,341 --> 00:31:25,901
we had a rocket fly straight up through
731
00:31:26,051 --> 00:31:28,011
our zones of interest just fine.
732
00:31:28,178 --> 00:31:29,554
But then, on descent,
733
00:31:29,721 --> 00:31:31,473
it started falling away from the triangle
734
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,976
like it was sliding down
along the bubble boundary.
735
00:31:35,143 --> 00:31:37,104
Yep, it landed before the trees.
736
00:31:37,270 --> 00:31:38,950
That's really close
to the bubble boundary.
737
00:31:39,106 --> 00:31:40,524
Yeah, that is awesome.
738
00:31:40,690 --> 00:31:44,194
Erik, that was our final launch
and another crazy one.
739
00:31:44,361 --> 00:31:45,987
All right, guys, I'm gonna head out.
740
00:31:46,154 --> 00:31:49,074
We'll, meet up out at the science tent.
741
00:31:49,241 --> 00:31:51,081
Yeah, Erik, we'll see you
out here in a minute.
742
00:31:52,410 --> 00:31:55,539
After every rocket we launched
tonight was coming back down,
743
00:31:55,747 --> 00:31:57,791
it seemed like the top of the bubble...
744
00:31:57,958 --> 00:32:00,460
or something up there
at the 2,000-foot level...
745
00:32:00,669 --> 00:32:02,462
stopped us from collecting more data.
746
00:32:02,629 --> 00:32:05,090
What an unusual evening.
747
00:32:05,257 --> 00:32:06,776
I'm ex... really excited to go look at
748
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,027
the high-speed data
on all these launches.
749
00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:09,594
Can't wait to see that.
750
00:32:09,761 --> 00:32:11,761
Yeah, well, I, you know,
I... I got to get the data
751
00:32:11,847 --> 00:32:13,473
off the rocket systems.
752
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,767
I want to get back over
to the command center
753
00:32:15,934 --> 00:32:17,394
and, start analyzing data.
754
00:32:17,561 --> 00:32:19,229
- Perfect.
- All right. Well, let's,
755
00:32:19,396 --> 00:32:20,814
start packing some of this stuff up
756
00:32:20,981 --> 00:32:22,440
and let's call it a night.
757
00:32:22,566 --> 00:32:24,192
- What do you say?
- I'm ready.
758
00:32:24,359 --> 00:32:25,735
- Let's get it.
- All right.
759
00:32:25,944 --> 00:32:27,320
Been a long day.
760
00:32:34,828 --> 00:32:37,080
You guys ready to look
at some rocket data?
761
00:32:37,205 --> 00:32:39,374
- Yeah.
- I want to take us back
762
00:32:39,541 --> 00:32:41,918
to the second rocket
that we launched during the day
763
00:32:42,043 --> 00:32:44,713
- with the cameras mounted on it.
- Okay.
764
00:32:45,755 --> 00:32:48,341
This is the camera
mounted to the rocket.
765
00:32:48,550 --> 00:32:50,093
We're looking back down at the ground.
766
00:32:50,260 --> 00:32:51,761
- Awesome.
- Nice.
767
00:32:51,887 --> 00:32:53,346
Now, as you recall, this is the one
768
00:32:53,513 --> 00:32:55,032
where the chute didn't deploy correctly.
769
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:56,683
- Yeah.
- Right.
770
00:32:56,808 --> 00:32:59,269
So I'm gonna play
it through at normal speed.
771
00:33:01,188 --> 00:33:03,815
- Man, look at that.
- That's cool.
772
00:33:04,816 --> 00:33:07,235
- It's up there, too. Look at that.
- Wow.
773
00:33:10,614 --> 00:33:12,175
Okay, so we should
hit the chute charge...
774
00:33:12,199 --> 00:33:14,159
there it is.
775
00:33:14,284 --> 00:33:16,369
And then we get
the 3D pendulum motion
776
00:33:16,536 --> 00:33:18,097
- until it hits the ground.
- Yeah, so...
777
00:33:18,121 --> 00:33:19,761
so I-I would, I would say that's as close
778
00:33:19,789 --> 00:33:22,125
to our textbook version
of how things should go.
779
00:33:22,292 --> 00:33:25,253
Nothing obvious to explain why
a chute wouldn't deploy.
780
00:33:25,420 --> 00:33:27,255
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Well, let's watch
781
00:33:27,422 --> 00:33:29,841
this thing as it goes up frame by frame.
782
00:33:30,842 --> 00:33:32,719
Okay, so we've got an ignition.
783
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:34,554
Yeah, that's amazing.
784
00:33:35,597 --> 00:33:39,351
Okay, and now I'm just
moving one frame at a time here.
785
00:33:39,517 --> 00:33:42,229
Now, see how... we're still only about
786
00:33:42,395 --> 00:33:44,147
ten or 15 feet up right here,
787
00:33:44,314 --> 00:33:46,483
maybe getting close to the 30-foot mark.
788
00:33:46,650 --> 00:33:48,818
Yeah, things are changing.
789
00:33:55,033 --> 00:33:56,368
Wait, what is that?
790
00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:58,078
Back it up and let's see
791
00:33:58,245 --> 00:34:00,747
- where... how that... where... okay.
- Okay.
792
00:34:00,914 --> 00:34:02,434
- That's one frame back...
- One frame.
793
00:34:02,582 --> 00:34:04,417
- One forward.
- Look at part
794
00:34:04,626 --> 00:34:07,504
of the rocket exhaust. That's horizontal.
795
00:34:07,671 --> 00:34:10,090
That's in the wrong direction.
796
00:34:10,257 --> 00:34:12,175
Okay, so let's keep going,
frame at a time.
797
00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:16,846
- Look at that.
- And it separates.
798
00:34:17,013 --> 00:34:18,889
It sure does. In one frame.
799
00:34:19,056 --> 00:34:21,226
Whatever it is, it's fast, too.
800
00:34:21,393 --> 00:34:23,561
- Look, there's nothing else doing this.
- Wow.
801
00:34:23,687 --> 00:34:27,774
Like something went through
the plume from underneath it.
802
00:34:27,940 --> 00:34:29,400
Yeah, and pushed it out.
803
00:34:29,525 --> 00:34:31,110
That's exactly what it looks like.
804
00:34:32,152 --> 00:34:34,656
It looks like something
went through the plume, yeah.
805
00:34:34,822 --> 00:34:36,241
Like you shot an arrow or a bullet
806
00:34:36,366 --> 00:34:37,826
through it or something.
807
00:34:38,827 --> 00:34:42,496
That's an odd event right there.
808
00:34:44,373 --> 00:34:46,835
The slow-motion video
clearly shows something
809
00:34:47,002 --> 00:34:49,379
moving rapidly through
the rocket's exhaust flames
810
00:34:49,587 --> 00:34:51,547
shortly after it launched.
811
00:34:51,715 --> 00:34:54,509
And it's directly over the area
where Pete's lidar scanner
812
00:34:54,676 --> 00:34:57,470
was showing
those strange GPS readings.
813
00:34:57,637 --> 00:35:00,515
So, could we have caught
whatever was affecting
814
00:35:00,682 --> 00:35:02,517
our lidar scanner at the triangle?
815
00:35:02,684 --> 00:35:05,353
And could this also be connected
to whatever prevented
816
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,397
the parachute from deploying?
817
00:35:08,398 --> 00:35:09,899
Now I have, another
818
00:35:10,108 --> 00:35:11,776
launch here that I want to share with us.
819
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:14,840
- Great.
- This is gonna be Meta-Frame.
820
00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:17,699
So this is one of our
night launches, of course.
821
00:35:17,907 --> 00:35:20,493
This is the rocket we had with the coils
822
00:35:20,660 --> 00:35:22,579
to detect magnetic anomalies.
823
00:35:22,787 --> 00:35:27,083
We had the camera mounted
on the inside of the rocket...
824
00:35:28,460 --> 00:35:30,795
looking at that sensor to record changes
825
00:35:30,962 --> 00:35:33,298
in the magnetic field.
826
00:35:33,506 --> 00:35:36,134
So, you typically just expect to see zero?
827
00:35:36,301 --> 00:35:38,221
No, you'd-you'd expect
to see some small changes,
828
00:35:38,303 --> 00:35:40,013
like the two digits, probably.
829
00:35:40,180 --> 00:35:42,390
If it starts getting
really big numbers, then...
830
00:35:42,557 --> 00:35:44,910
then it means it went through
a really strong magnetic field.
831
00:35:44,934 --> 00:35:46,519
I'll just let it play through at,
832
00:35:46,645 --> 00:35:48,104
normal speed.
833
00:35:49,272 --> 00:35:50,732
So we are in flight.
834
00:35:51,733 --> 00:35:53,127
Did you see it jump
right there? Look at that.
835
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:54,431
There were some big, big spikes.
836
00:35:54,569 --> 00:35:55,987
There was a spike.
837
00:35:59,324 --> 00:36:02,160
- Ooh, look at that. 270-something.
- I saw it. 273.
838
00:36:02,285 --> 00:36:03,870
273 right there.
839
00:36:04,037 --> 00:36:08,667
We are clearly seeing a voltage...
840
00:36:08,833 --> 00:36:11,878
which means that,
that coil is cutting through
841
00:36:12,045 --> 00:36:13,797
- a magnetic field.
- That's exactly right.
842
00:36:15,048 --> 00:36:17,342
What have we found up there?
843
00:36:21,137 --> 00:36:23,098
What have we found up there?
844
00:36:23,306 --> 00:36:25,684
That's a really good question.
845
00:36:25,809 --> 00:36:27,689
The rocket with
the copper coil that we launched
846
00:36:27,727 --> 00:36:29,854
above the triangle
detected an electric field
847
00:36:30,021 --> 00:36:32,816
that was several times higher
than what you would normally see
848
00:36:33,024 --> 00:36:34,484
in the natural environment.
849
00:36:34,651 --> 00:36:37,237
So, even though the bubble stopped us
850
00:36:37,404 --> 00:36:39,114
from collecting as much data
as we wanted,
851
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,908
we did get enough
to confirm that there is
852
00:36:42,075 --> 00:36:46,162
some kind of electromagnetic
anomaly high above the triangle.
853
00:36:46,287 --> 00:36:47,789
The experiment worked.
854
00:36:47,956 --> 00:36:50,041
Now we just need to map it
to the altitude.
855
00:36:50,166 --> 00:36:52,210
- Exactly.
- So, what altitude is it?
856
00:36:52,377 --> 00:36:53,628
Right, so I've got
857
00:36:53,795 --> 00:36:55,755
what I need to do that.
858
00:36:55,922 --> 00:36:57,882
Let's take a look at that flight data.
859
00:36:58,883 --> 00:37:01,636
That's the data
from the rocket's flight path?
860
00:37:01,803 --> 00:37:03,596
Yeah. So, what we're looking at here
861
00:37:03,763 --> 00:37:06,933
is the altitude data from the Kate system.
862
00:37:07,100 --> 00:37:10,019
What we had was
the boost phase here in red.
863
00:37:10,228 --> 00:37:13,189
In purple, this is the rocket
continuing upward.
864
00:37:13,356 --> 00:37:15,984
The green is tracking the descent.
865
00:37:16,151 --> 00:37:17,402
- Okay.
- Okay, so keep in mind,
866
00:37:17,527 --> 00:37:19,654
this one did not do
867
00:37:19,821 --> 00:37:21,990
- a successful chute deploy.
- That's right.
868
00:37:22,157 --> 00:37:24,659
So, if you match the voltages
869
00:37:24,868 --> 00:37:26,119
- to these dots...
- I can.
870
00:37:26,244 --> 00:37:27,871
Okay.
871
00:37:28,037 --> 00:37:31,291
We can see at what height
we got the voltage spike.
872
00:37:31,458 --> 00:37:34,961
And I already calculated it,
and the spike in the voltage
873
00:37:35,086 --> 00:37:38,673
started at this dot which is at 750 feet,
874
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,177
right where the drones went
wonky a couple of weeks ago.
875
00:37:42,385 --> 00:37:45,388
- Interesting.
- Okay. -Wow.
876
00:37:45,555 --> 00:37:47,682
So, not only did this experiment produce
877
00:37:47,849 --> 00:37:49,893
more evidence
of an electromagnetic anomaly
878
00:37:50,059 --> 00:37:51,644
above the triangle,
879
00:37:51,770 --> 00:37:55,190
but also it's located about 750 feet high
880
00:37:55,356 --> 00:37:57,442
and might go as high as 1,000 feet.
881
00:37:57,609 --> 00:38:00,695
That's pretty much
dead center of the bubble.
882
00:38:00,862 --> 00:38:02,822
That area might be
883
00:38:02,989 --> 00:38:04,949
interfering with the equipment.
884
00:38:05,116 --> 00:38:06,284
Yeah.
885
00:38:06,451 --> 00:38:07,851
It might have messed up the rockets
886
00:38:07,911 --> 00:38:11,331
during this experiment
and the drones last week.
887
00:38:11,498 --> 00:38:13,792
Yeah, and is that
because it's passing through
888
00:38:13,958 --> 00:38:17,545
that zone there
and that's a possible effect?
889
00:38:17,712 --> 00:38:19,589
Could be.
890
00:38:19,756 --> 00:38:21,174
I'm intrigued about that.
891
00:38:21,341 --> 00:38:23,551
- For sure.
- Well, before we wrap up
892
00:38:23,718 --> 00:38:26,429
our review, there's something
I want to show you
893
00:38:26,596 --> 00:38:28,139
from the last launch we did.
894
00:38:29,098 --> 00:38:30,683
This is some video that was taken
895
00:38:30,850 --> 00:38:32,977
with the night vision camera.
896
00:38:35,063 --> 00:38:36,898
Yeah, so there's our launch.
897
00:38:39,776 --> 00:38:43,530
And then we have
the chute deploy right here.
898
00:38:44,656 --> 00:38:46,157
Chute. We got a chute.
899
00:38:53,331 --> 00:38:54,958
- Whoa.
- Yeah, I saw something...
900
00:38:55,124 --> 00:38:56,960
- Right there. -Yep.
- Back that up.
901
00:38:57,085 --> 00:38:58,419
What, what was that?
902
00:38:58,628 --> 00:39:00,505
Okay.
903
00:39:00,672 --> 00:39:03,049
- There it is.
- Yes.
904
00:39:03,216 --> 00:39:05,468
We'll go frame by frame.
905
00:39:06,886 --> 00:39:08,221
I don't know what that is.
906
00:39:08,429 --> 00:39:10,723
- That's weird.
- That's not a bug.
907
00:39:10,849 --> 00:39:12,267
Okay.
908
00:39:13,893 --> 00:39:15,270
So what do you make of it?
909
00:39:15,436 --> 00:39:16,796
I don't know what to make of that.
910
00:39:16,855 --> 00:39:18,273
I don't know what to make of that.
911
00:39:18,439 --> 00:39:19,799
We may have caught something here,
912
00:39:19,941 --> 00:39:21,734
and I-I can't tell you what I think that is.
913
00:39:21,901 --> 00:39:23,361
I don't know what that is.
914
00:39:23,528 --> 00:39:25,405
I don't know if that light
915
00:39:25,572 --> 00:39:28,324
was some sort of UAP or what it was.
916
00:39:28,491 --> 00:39:30,827
But the fact that it showed up
just after the rocket chute
917
00:39:30,994 --> 00:39:33,037
was deployed is interesting.
918
00:39:33,204 --> 00:39:35,206
Because that's when we saw the rocket
919
00:39:35,373 --> 00:39:37,625
suddenly veer off in a different direction.
920
00:39:37,792 --> 00:39:39,961
We thought it might be
from making contact
921
00:39:40,086 --> 00:39:42,297
with the bubble's top boundary.
922
00:39:42,505 --> 00:39:45,174
But could it have been from
a collision with this thing?
923
00:39:45,341 --> 00:39:47,010
If so, what was it?
924
00:39:47,176 --> 00:39:48,845
And where in the heck did it come from?
925
00:39:49,012 --> 00:39:51,723
Well, look, you know, we've reviewed
926
00:39:51,848 --> 00:39:53,766
quite a few launches and,
927
00:39:53,933 --> 00:39:56,019
quite a few different kinds of data here.
928
00:39:56,227 --> 00:39:57,520
It's always been interesting.
929
00:39:57,645 --> 00:39:59,355
It just keeps getting more interesting.
930
00:39:59,522 --> 00:40:01,691
Lot of ways to, to study
931
00:40:01,858 --> 00:40:04,694
the space, you know,
right there above the triangle.
932
00:40:04,861 --> 00:40:07,488
I think we should conduct
a lot more experiments
933
00:40:07,655 --> 00:40:09,282
- in that space.
- Yeah.
934
00:40:09,449 --> 00:40:11,451
Certainly, it would be
interesting to figure out
935
00:40:11,618 --> 00:40:14,203
- what some of these anomalies really are.
- Yeah.
936
00:40:14,370 --> 00:40:15,848
- Yeah.
- I'm sure we'll come up with something.
937
00:40:15,872 --> 00:40:17,332
- Great.
- Good.
938
00:40:17,498 --> 00:40:19,417
- All right.
- All right. That's a great review.
939
00:40:19,584 --> 00:40:21,544
Yeah, it was a great review.
940
00:40:24,380 --> 00:40:26,466
We've done so much in that space
941
00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:28,509
just above the triangle,
942
00:40:28,676 --> 00:40:31,346
and, you know,
sometimes we see things,
943
00:40:31,512 --> 00:40:33,640
Unexpected things, play out
944
00:40:33,765 --> 00:40:36,851
whenever we energize that space
with rockets.
945
00:40:37,018 --> 00:40:39,520
We're allowing ourselves
to be led by the data
946
00:40:39,646 --> 00:40:43,066
because it has a lot to teach us
about what we're dealing with.
947
00:40:43,232 --> 00:40:47,278
This effort can be
both exciting and frightening.
948
00:40:47,445 --> 00:40:51,407
Do our experiments trigger or activate
949
00:40:51,574 --> 00:40:55,203
this energetic force
that lies above the triangle?
950
00:40:55,328 --> 00:40:59,874
And the way that our equipment
continues to be manipulated
951
00:41:00,041 --> 00:41:02,543
by unknown, unseen forces
952
00:41:02,710 --> 00:41:06,506
is something that demands answers.
953
00:41:06,673 --> 00:41:09,384
The evidence is
mounting with each experiment
954
00:41:09,550 --> 00:41:11,427
that the bubble may be the center
955
00:41:11,594 --> 00:41:14,263
of all the phenomena
we're investigating out here.
956
00:41:14,430 --> 00:41:18,518
From the blob to all the UAPs
and even whatever's in the mesa,
957
00:41:18,685 --> 00:41:21,521
the bubble just might be
the common thread.
958
00:41:21,688 --> 00:41:23,564
So, one way or another,
959
00:41:23,731 --> 00:41:26,526
we're not stopping until we figure it out.
960
00:41:28,987 --> 00:41:30,405
We got down to 40 foot?
961
00:41:30,571 --> 00:41:32,573
We should hit that anomaly
we were looking for.
962
00:41:32,740 --> 00:41:34,158
Whoa, look here.
963
00:41:34,283 --> 00:41:35,576
That's a piece of metal.
964
00:41:35,743 --> 00:41:37,412
It's been in the mesa for a while.
965
00:41:37,578 --> 00:41:39,080
I've got some movement
966
00:41:39,205 --> 00:41:40,765
on a light source near Homestead Three.
967
00:41:40,915 --> 00:41:43,084
Approaching Homestead Three
with a drone.
968
00:41:43,251 --> 00:41:44,895
- Have you seen this?
- What are those lines?
969
00:41:44,919 --> 00:41:46,129
That's heat.
970
00:41:46,295 --> 00:41:48,089
It's like somebody's got a furnace on.
971
00:41:48,256 --> 00:41:49,692
There's something
moving around in there.
972
00:41:49,716 --> 00:41:51,092
Is anybody in there?
973
00:41:51,259 --> 00:41:53,761
- We're gonna go check it out.
- All right, go.
