1
00:00:01,543 --> 00:00:02,961
[Travis] We want to learn
more about the triangle,
2
00:00:03,086 --> 00:00:04,296
which is the center
of the bubble.
3
00:00:04,463 --> 00:00:05,756
So, we have 100 drones.
Is that right?
4
00:00:05,923 --> 00:00:07,132
It's gonna be 100 drones
and it's gonna stay
5
00:00:07,299 --> 00:00:08,592
in a horizontal plane.
6
00:00:08,759 --> 00:00:10,219
Drones are rolling.
7
00:00:10,427 --> 00:00:11,887
-Okay, taking off.
-[Kaleb] Drone swarm
8
00:00:12,054 --> 00:00:14,431
came over the center
of the triangle.
9
00:00:14,598 --> 00:00:16,642
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
I totally lost it. Shoot, shoot.
10
00:00:16,767 --> 00:00:18,602
[Thomas] The FPV drone
just hit the ground.
11
00:00:18,727 --> 00:00:21,522
-Oh, my god. -[Kaleb] We're
getting drones doing circular
12
00:00:21,647 --> 00:00:23,524
-patterns all over the triangle.
-[Thomas] They're 50 feet
13
00:00:23,690 --> 00:00:25,817
from hitting
that 1,000-foot mark.
14
00:00:26,026 --> 00:00:27,986
There's a huge
magnetic field that caused
15
00:00:28,153 --> 00:00:29,988
the drone to swirl around.
16
00:00:30,155 --> 00:00:31,698
-There's a structure to it.
-There is a structure to it.
17
00:00:31,907 --> 00:00:34,243
[Travis] There is a big
magnetic anomaly floating
18
00:00:34,368 --> 00:00:36,370
-right over the triangle.
-[Thomas] Wow.
19
00:00:36,537 --> 00:00:37,955
That's fantastic.
20
00:00:40,707 --> 00:00:44,127
[Narrator] There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.
21
00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:46,797
It is considered the epicenter
22
00:00:46,964 --> 00:00:51,927
of the strangest and most
disturbing occurrences on Earth.
23
00:00:52,094 --> 00:00:53,428
For two decades,
24
00:00:53,595 --> 00:00:55,097
the federal government
25
00:00:55,305 --> 00:00:57,266
investigated the property.
26
00:00:57,432 --> 00:01:00,769
Their findings
have never been made public.
27
00:01:00,936 --> 00:01:02,271
[Travis] Right there!
We got something!
28
00:01:02,437 --> 00:01:04,230
[Narrator] Now a new team
29
00:01:04,397 --> 00:01:08,193
of independent scientists
and researchers are taking over.
30
00:01:08,694 --> 00:01:10,112
They are uncovering evidence
31
00:01:10,279 --> 00:01:12,072
that the countless stories...
32
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:14,032
It came right out of the mesa.
33
00:01:14,199 --> 00:01:16,535
...of unidentified
aerial phenomena...
34
00:01:16,702 --> 00:01:18,078
-UAP right there!
-Yep.
35
00:01:18,245 --> 00:01:19,788
...bizarre energies...
36
00:01:19,955 --> 00:01:21,707
It looks like there's
a heat source right above 'em.
37
00:01:21,873 --> 00:01:24,459
...and portals that lead
to other dimensions...
38
00:01:24,668 --> 00:01:25,919
We're maybe looking
at the anomaly
39
00:01:26,044 --> 00:01:27,254
for the first time, guys.
40
00:01:27,421 --> 00:01:29,840
...might actually be true.
41
00:01:29,965 --> 00:01:32,634
They will stop at nothing
to reveal...
42
00:01:35,387 --> 00:01:38,807
...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.
43
00:01:44,021 --> 00:01:45,564
[Thomas] Uh, Travis,
44
00:01:45,731 --> 00:01:47,482
we got Matt and Brian
from Sky Elements here.
45
00:01:47,607 --> 00:01:49,109
-Hi.
-Hey.
46
00:01:49,276 --> 00:01:51,737
-Hey, guys.
-So excited to be back.
47
00:01:51,903 --> 00:01:54,573
[Travis] We planned a really
ambitious new experiment
48
00:01:54,740 --> 00:01:57,242
with the team
from Sky Elements Drone Shows.
49
00:01:57,367 --> 00:02:00,412
But unfortunately,
I was sick as a dog.
50
00:02:00,579 --> 00:02:02,873
-[coughs]
-How are you feeling?
51
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,791
[Travis] So, I had to stay here
in my trailer here on the ranch
52
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:06,710
while they got
everything set up.
53
00:02:06,877 --> 00:02:09,338
I appreciate you asking, Thomas.
I'm not feeling that good.
54
00:02:09,503 --> 00:02:11,465
I don't want to make
y'all sick, but I also,
55
00:02:11,632 --> 00:02:14,009
I didn't want to miss out
on this amazing experiment
56
00:02:14,176 --> 00:02:15,719
we got planned for tonight.
57
00:02:15,886 --> 00:02:17,054
Well, I don't think
we'd be doing it
58
00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:18,930
without your involvement,
Travis.
59
00:02:19,097 --> 00:02:20,599
You know, this is
one of those experiments
60
00:02:20,724 --> 00:02:22,142
that we've been anticipating
for quite some time,
61
00:02:22,351 --> 00:02:24,227
because more recently,
we've seen the potential
62
00:02:24,394 --> 00:02:27,064
for magnetic anomalies
high above the triangle.
63
00:02:27,230 --> 00:02:28,565
Yes. Yep, absolutely.
64
00:02:31,443 --> 00:02:33,779
-[Preston] Drones are up.
-[Travis] Several weeks ago,
65
00:02:33,987 --> 00:02:37,824
Sky Elements flew a swarm
of 100 drones at the triangle
66
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:41,036
up to the legal maximum altitude
of 1,000 feet.
67
00:02:42,079 --> 00:02:44,831
And between 750
and that 1,000-foot level,
68
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:48,293
a huge electromagnetic anomaly
of some kind
69
00:02:48,460 --> 00:02:51,672
made the drones go haywire
and spin out of control.
70
00:02:52,881 --> 00:02:55,592
What's even more strange
is that this thing is also
71
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:57,719
right at the center
of the bubble,
72
00:02:57,886 --> 00:03:01,431
which we believe has a maximum
height of about 2,000 feet.
73
00:03:02,474 --> 00:03:05,310
Now, we want to see
if this electromagnetic anomaly
74
00:03:05,477 --> 00:03:08,522
might extend even higher
than 1,000 feet.
75
00:03:08,647 --> 00:03:10,691
Other experiments
in the past suggested
76
00:03:10,857 --> 00:03:13,527
that there could be additional
electromagnetic anomalies
77
00:03:13,694 --> 00:03:15,946
as high as 3,500 feet.
78
00:03:16,113 --> 00:03:19,199
So, Sky Elements has gone out
of their way to help us scan
79
00:03:19,366 --> 00:03:22,869
not only inside the bubble
but much higher above it.
80
00:03:23,036 --> 00:03:26,665
Uh, could you go through
the launch plan?
81
00:03:26,832 --> 00:03:28,458
Yeah, so we got
a ten-by-ten grid: 100 drones,
82
00:03:28,667 --> 00:03:30,377
about five feet
in between each drone.
83
00:03:30,585 --> 00:03:31,837
They're all gonna
take off at once,
84
00:03:32,003 --> 00:03:34,131
kind of traverse
over to the triangle.
85
00:03:34,297 --> 00:03:35,882
We're hoping to go
much higher this time,
86
00:03:36,007 --> 00:03:37,634
go up to the 4,000-foot range.
87
00:03:37,801 --> 00:03:40,595
-That would be great.
-[Erik] Yeah, perfect, perfect.
88
00:03:40,762 --> 00:03:42,431
That's ideal.
89
00:03:42,597 --> 00:03:44,266
That's the highest
any drone swarm
90
00:03:44,433 --> 00:03:46,184
has ever had
legal clearance to fly.
91
00:03:46,351 --> 00:03:47,769
Not just on Skinwalker Ranch.
92
00:03:47,936 --> 00:03:50,230
We're talking
the entire United States.
93
00:03:50,397 --> 00:03:52,399
So, kudos to Sky Elements.
94
00:03:52,524 --> 00:03:55,026
[Erik] I understand
you're gonna take position
95
00:03:55,193 --> 00:03:57,571
over in the east field.
Uh, you'll be running two,
96
00:03:57,737 --> 00:04:00,240
uh, spectrum analyzers
o-out of the Jeep?
97
00:04:00,365 --> 00:04:03,118
Yeah, Erik,
I'll have, uh, two antennas
98
00:04:03,285 --> 00:04:04,494
looking directly
at the triangle.
99
00:04:04,661 --> 00:04:06,121
[Erik] Sounds good.
100
00:04:06,288 --> 00:04:08,498
I hate that I can't be
out there at the triangle
101
00:04:08,707 --> 00:04:10,959
with you guys, but you don't
want what I've got.
102
00:04:11,084 --> 00:04:13,003
-It's not any fun.
-[Royston] Mm-mm.
103
00:04:13,128 --> 00:04:15,046
-No.
-[Thomas] No, we don't.
104
00:04:15,213 --> 00:04:17,132
[Erik] There's a lot of setup
that we need to do, so, um,
105
00:04:17,298 --> 00:04:19,384
-I say we get started.
-Awesome.
106
00:04:19,551 --> 00:04:20,886
-Okay.
-Great.
107
00:04:26,266 --> 00:04:27,726
[Travis] It's not like
I'm bedridden,
108
00:04:27,893 --> 00:04:29,603
so I want to help
with the experiment
109
00:04:29,728 --> 00:04:31,688
from a safe distance.
110
00:04:31,855 --> 00:04:33,899
As the swarm flies up
through the 750-
111
00:04:34,107 --> 00:04:37,819
to 1,000-foot region and higher,
I'll be in the east field,
112
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:40,906
outside the bubble,
monitoring a spectrum analyzer
113
00:04:41,072 --> 00:04:43,074
with antennas pointed
toward the triangle.
114
00:04:43,241 --> 00:04:46,703
That way, I can look out for any
strange radio frequency signals
115
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:48,747
like we've detected in the past.
116
00:04:48,914 --> 00:04:50,957
This could be
a perfect opportunity
117
00:04:51,124 --> 00:04:53,668
to figure out where
these signals are coming from.
118
00:04:54,711 --> 00:04:57,255
-[Thomas] Hey, guys.
-[Ellis] What's up, gentlemen?
119
00:04:57,422 --> 00:04:59,132
[Travis] Erik and the others
will be watching their own
120
00:04:59,299 --> 00:05:01,301
radio antennas at the triangle.
121
00:05:01,510 --> 00:05:04,679
Also, several high-speed cameras
are set up around the ranch
122
00:05:04,805 --> 00:05:06,556
to record the drone swarm
123
00:05:06,723 --> 00:05:08,725
and look for
any unusual behavior
124
00:05:08,892 --> 00:05:12,479
or deviations in
its preprogrammed flight path.
125
00:05:12,604 --> 00:05:15,774
The drones have onboard
magnetometers and GPS devices
126
00:05:15,941 --> 00:05:18,610
to identify any more
electromagnetic energy
127
00:05:18,777 --> 00:05:21,196
which coordinate
from a Wi-Fi access point
128
00:05:21,363 --> 00:05:22,614
set up here on the ground.
129
00:05:22,781 --> 00:05:24,741
It not only controls the swarm
130
00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:28,829
but also allows us to monitor
flight data in real time.
131
00:05:30,789 --> 00:05:32,123
[Thomas] What are you gonna
do first?
132
00:05:32,290 --> 00:05:33,542
Yeah, we're gonna run
two or three tests here.
133
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:35,001
It's the first time
we've ever been
134
00:05:35,126 --> 00:05:36,378
to 4,000 feet in altitude,
135
00:05:36,586 --> 00:05:38,046
so we're gonna see
how everything
136
00:05:38,213 --> 00:05:39,714
is communicating well
and make sure we've got good
137
00:05:39,881 --> 00:05:41,883
-connectivity
with all the drones. -Okay.
138
00:05:42,008 --> 00:05:43,510
So, how many drones
are you gonna send up?
139
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:44,970
We're gonna send up
a pack of four
140
00:05:45,136 --> 00:05:46,638
really close to each other
up all the way
141
00:05:46,805 --> 00:05:48,640
-to the 4,000-foot mark.
-Cool. -All right.
142
00:05:48,765 --> 00:05:50,475
So, uh, there's no telling
what could happen
143
00:05:50,642 --> 00:05:52,269
when the drones go that high.
144
00:05:52,435 --> 00:05:54,688
We'll make sure that everybody
across the site is aware
145
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:56,356
that they're up in the air,
146
00:05:56,523 --> 00:05:58,108
so we can warn everybody
if we need to.
147
00:05:58,275 --> 00:06:00,277
-Absolutely. -All right,
well, we'll let you guys
148
00:06:00,402 --> 00:06:01,987
get to this test flight.
149
00:06:02,153 --> 00:06:03,905
-Okay, awesome.
-[Travis] Being able to run
150
00:06:04,072 --> 00:06:08,118
our drone swarm this high is
exciting, but it's also risky.
151
00:06:08,285 --> 00:06:11,454
Especially if all 100 drones
come crashing down
152
00:06:11,621 --> 00:06:13,957
on our heads like what
happened a few years ago.
153
00:06:14,124 --> 00:06:15,667
[Thomas] Heads up!
154
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:17,627
Heads up! They're coming down!
155
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,047
[Kaleb] Holy mackerel.
156
00:06:21,214 --> 00:06:23,425
[Thomas] It's raining drones
over here!
157
00:06:23,592 --> 00:06:26,636
So, tonight, this first
test flight is an important step
158
00:06:26,803 --> 00:06:29,055
to make sure
this experiment succeeds
159
00:06:29,222 --> 00:06:32,267
and that we don't have
an even more dangerous situation
160
00:06:32,434 --> 00:06:35,478
if these drones fall
from a much higher altitude.
161
00:06:39,649 --> 00:06:41,026
[Thomas] So, you guys
are good to go, then?
162
00:06:41,192 --> 00:06:42,444
-[Ellis] Yes, sir.
-Okay.
163
00:06:42,611 --> 00:06:44,321
[Thomas] Hey, guys,
uh, they're ready
164
00:06:44,446 --> 00:06:46,948
to go ahead
with this test of four.
165
00:06:47,115 --> 00:06:49,200
Are you guys to the point
that you're ready to go?
166
00:06:49,326 --> 00:06:50,869
-Yes.
-Erik?
167
00:06:51,036 --> 00:06:52,245
[Erik] Yeah. Ready to go.
168
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:53,997
Okay.
169
00:06:54,164 --> 00:06:55,749
Hey, Travis, you copy?
170
00:06:56,750 --> 00:06:59,002
[Travis] Yeah, Erik. Go ahead.
171
00:06:59,127 --> 00:07:00,712
The word on the ground is
we're gonna do a test,
172
00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:03,381
and, uh, we'll let you know, uh,
what's happening as we see it.
173
00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:05,425
I am in position.
174
00:07:05,592 --> 00:07:07,886
-Have at it. -All right, guys.
-[Thomas] Okay.
175
00:07:08,053 --> 00:07:09,596
-[Erik] Let's hit it.
-[Thomas] Let's get to work.
176
00:07:09,763 --> 00:07:11,056
You're good to go, guys.
177
00:07:11,222 --> 00:07:12,557
-All right.
-All right, let's do it.
178
00:07:12,724 --> 00:07:14,267
[Ellis] Ten seconds to launch.
179
00:07:16,394 --> 00:07:18,146
Four, three,
180
00:07:18,313 --> 00:07:20,023
two, one.
181
00:07:21,524 --> 00:07:23,652
Drones are up.
182
00:07:23,818 --> 00:07:25,236
Taking off.
183
00:07:27,489 --> 00:07:29,115
[Brian] FPV is up.
184
00:07:29,282 --> 00:07:31,117
[Travis] Brian Woodward
is also flying
185
00:07:31,284 --> 00:07:34,371
his camera-equipped FPV drone
with the swarm
186
00:07:34,537 --> 00:07:36,373
to closely monitor it
for anything strange
187
00:07:36,539 --> 00:07:38,917
all the way up to 4,000 feet.
188
00:07:39,918 --> 00:07:42,170
-[Ellis] Yep, that's 500 feet.
-[Matt] 500.
189
00:07:42,337 --> 00:07:44,047
[Travis] Now, this is
a good test for the FPV, too,
190
00:07:44,214 --> 00:07:46,675
because the last two times
that Sky Elements
191
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:48,134
has been out here this year,
192
00:07:48,301 --> 00:07:51,513
something made that drone
crash inside the bubble.
193
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,599
[Ellis] Should be
about 800 feet now.
194
00:07:54,724 --> 00:07:56,810
[Thomas] We're at 800 feet now.
195
00:07:58,978 --> 00:08:01,231
Well, now, what do we got here?
196
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:06,403
Right there,
I just got a huge spike
197
00:08:06,528 --> 00:08:10,156
at 1.6 gigahertz
bouncing up and down.
198
00:08:10,323 --> 00:08:11,825
[Erik over radio] Oh, really?
199
00:08:13,368 --> 00:08:14,953
[Ellis] We lost communication.
200
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,955
-Lost communications?
-Lost communication.
201
00:08:17,122 --> 00:08:19,499
[Thomas] So, at the same time
he calls out that 1.6,
202
00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:22,460
-you guys lose
your communication? -Yeah.
203
00:08:22,669 --> 00:08:24,671
[Thomas] This
1.6-gigahertz signal is exactly
204
00:08:24,838 --> 00:08:26,214
what I wanted to look for,
205
00:08:26,381 --> 00:08:28,675
because it could be
a communication signal.
206
00:08:28,842 --> 00:08:30,468
But it's interesting
that it showed up
207
00:08:30,635 --> 00:08:32,846
right as the drones were
losing communication
208
00:08:33,011 --> 00:08:35,432
and passing through
the 800-foot mark
209
00:08:35,597 --> 00:08:37,933
where we know
that magnetic field is.
210
00:08:38,101 --> 00:08:40,520
Could that mean
it's coming from that anomaly?
211
00:08:42,813 --> 00:08:44,399
1,000 feet.
212
00:08:47,819 --> 00:08:49,362
[Ellis] I'm reconnecting.
So, right when
213
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:51,906
they passed through 1,000,
they reconnected.
214
00:08:52,073 --> 00:08:53,992
[Erik] So, that put them
right in that 750
215
00:08:54,159 --> 00:08:56,494
to 1,000-foot magnetic zone.
216
00:08:56,661 --> 00:08:58,788
[Ellis] Correct. Which is where
we saw anomalies before
217
00:08:58,955 --> 00:09:00,206
-in the data.
-[Erik] Okay.
218
00:09:00,373 --> 00:09:02,042
[Travis] Well, how about that?
219
00:09:02,167 --> 00:09:03,877
This test flight
might have proven
220
00:09:04,044 --> 00:09:06,963
that the electromagnetic anomaly
occupies a defined space
221
00:09:07,130 --> 00:09:11,009
between 750 and 1,000 feet.
222
00:09:11,176 --> 00:09:14,429
So, what in the heck is it?
And are there more even higher?
223
00:09:14,596 --> 00:09:16,973
-All right, we're at 1,500 feet.
-Correct.
224
00:09:17,974 --> 00:09:19,893
[Travis] The uh, 1.6 signal,
225
00:09:20,060 --> 00:09:21,394
it went back down.
226
00:09:21,561 --> 00:09:23,521
[Erik] Yeah, copy that.
227
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:26,900
So, they're at 2,500.
228
00:09:29,819 --> 00:09:32,572
-[Ellis] Whoa, whoa.
-[Brian] Whoa, dude.
229
00:09:32,739 --> 00:09:34,157
What the heck?
230
00:09:35,116 --> 00:09:36,534
What is...
231
00:09:37,452 --> 00:09:41,289
[laughs] Dude. Dude. What?
232
00:09:41,456 --> 00:09:43,374
It's like something took
my drone and just, like,
233
00:09:43,541 --> 00:09:44,918
threw it back 100 feet.
234
00:09:45,085 --> 00:09:46,586
-Did you see that?
-Yep.
235
00:09:46,753 --> 00:09:48,797
That doesn't seem right.
236
00:09:48,963 --> 00:09:51,091
[Erik] Brian is reporting
some unusual behavior
237
00:09:51,257 --> 00:09:53,593
with the FPV drone.
238
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,180
It is as if the drone is being
physically interacted with.
239
00:09:57,388 --> 00:10:00,016
He's calling out
that the drone is being pushed.
240
00:10:00,183 --> 00:10:01,851
Whatever's going on
with the drone
241
00:10:02,018 --> 00:10:03,603
is not coming
from the controller.
242
00:10:03,728 --> 00:10:07,273
So, what could be going on
in that space over the triangle?
243
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,776
I'm gonna try to keep
pushing through it, though.
244
00:10:11,569 --> 00:10:15,031
-[Thomas] 3,000 feet.
-They're above 3,000 feet?
245
00:10:19,035 --> 00:10:20,328
[Brian] The drones look like
246
00:10:20,495 --> 00:10:22,872
they're going
at different elevations.
247
00:10:26,167 --> 00:10:28,503
Whoa. They fell.
248
00:10:28,711 --> 00:10:30,255
-What are they doing?
-[Travis] They're falling.
249
00:10:30,421 --> 00:10:32,257
-[Travis] Look out.
-One falling, one falling!
250
00:10:32,465 --> 00:10:34,467
[Thomas] Drones coming down!
Drones coming down!
251
00:10:34,634 --> 00:10:36,386
-[Kaleb] Take cover.
-Get in the vehicles!
252
00:10:36,553 --> 00:10:39,639
-[Thomas] Get in the vehicles!
-Take cover.
253
00:10:43,476 --> 00:10:45,228
[Travis] Looks to me
like they're falling.
254
00:10:45,395 --> 00:10:47,355
[Thomas] Drones coming down!
Drones coming down!
255
00:10:47,522 --> 00:10:49,440
-[Kaleb] Take cover.
-Get in the vehicles!
256
00:10:49,607 --> 00:10:51,025
[Thomas] Take cover. Take cover.
257
00:10:51,192 --> 00:10:53,486
-Gary, come on.
-[Travis] Look out.
258
00:10:53,653 --> 00:10:56,030
-They are falling, guys.
-[Brian] Oh, my gosh.
259
00:10:56,197 --> 00:10:57,740
-[Erik] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
-[Matt] One falling,
260
00:10:57,949 --> 00:11:00,118
-one falling.
-[Erik] Holy crap.
261
00:11:01,077 --> 00:11:02,745
[Ellis] Do we know
how many are still up?
262
00:11:02,912 --> 00:11:04,122
-[Thomas] Can you see them?
-[Matt] Yep, right there,
263
00:11:04,247 --> 00:11:05,498
-right above us.
-Okay.
264
00:11:05,707 --> 00:11:07,125
All right, what's the status?
265
00:11:07,292 --> 00:11:09,377
[Matt] I see all four down.
266
00:11:09,586 --> 00:11:11,337
They're all down,
they're all down.
267
00:11:11,546 --> 00:11:13,464
Is everybody okay?
It looks like they hit
268
00:11:13,631 --> 00:11:15,258
right on top of you.
269
00:11:16,259 --> 00:11:19,846
Drones are on the ground,
Travis, everybody's okay.
270
00:11:20,889 --> 00:11:22,640
[Travis] It was strange enough
when the drones
271
00:11:22,765 --> 00:11:26,144
had communication issues
between 750 and 1,000 feet.
272
00:11:26,311 --> 00:11:28,646
But what in the heck
did they fly up into
273
00:11:28,813 --> 00:11:30,940
above 3,000 feet
that made them lose
274
00:11:31,149 --> 00:11:33,151
all power and drop dead
out of the sky?
275
00:11:33,318 --> 00:11:35,361
Was it an even
higher concentration
276
00:11:35,486 --> 00:11:36,988
of electromagnetic energy?
277
00:11:37,155 --> 00:11:39,532
And if so, what's causing it?
278
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:41,242
Do you still have control
of the FPV?
279
00:11:41,409 --> 00:11:43,328
[Brian] Yeah, FPV, I do.
280
00:11:43,494 --> 00:11:45,330
That was so scary.
281
00:11:45,496 --> 00:11:47,081
[Ellis] I see all four down.
282
00:11:47,207 --> 00:11:49,250
We need to find the drones.
283
00:11:49,417 --> 00:11:50,877
[Thomas] We need to go find them
and recover them.
284
00:11:51,044 --> 00:11:52,879
-[Matt] Yeah.
-[Travis] It's kind of odd
285
00:11:53,004 --> 00:11:54,505
that the FPV drone,
286
00:11:54,672 --> 00:11:56,716
which has dropped dead
at much lower altitudes
287
00:11:56,883 --> 00:11:58,218
in recent experiments,
288
00:11:58,426 --> 00:12:00,845
wasn't affected
like the other four drones.
289
00:12:01,012 --> 00:12:02,555
Found one of them!
290
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,474
[Travis] Maybe it was
just far enough away
291
00:12:04,641 --> 00:12:06,809
-from whatever hit them.
-[Ellis] One over there.
292
00:12:06,976 --> 00:12:08,353
[Travis] We had
our fingers crossed
293
00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:10,104
that the drones were intact
294
00:12:10,271 --> 00:12:11,689
and had retrievable data
295
00:12:11,856 --> 00:12:14,108
that might tell us more
about what affected them.
296
00:12:14,275 --> 00:12:16,527
Pulling up the logs here.
297
00:12:16,694 --> 00:12:18,321
[Ellis] The drones
we've checked so far disarmed
298
00:12:18,446 --> 00:12:19,948
-at the same altitude...
-Mm-hmm.
299
00:12:20,114 --> 00:12:22,033
...which was at 3,271 feet.
300
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,409
Okay.
301
00:12:23,576 --> 00:12:26,371
As if something
disarmed the drones.
302
00:12:26,537 --> 00:12:28,706
[Thomas] You mean, like,
they just shut themselves off?
303
00:12:28,873 --> 00:12:30,833
-Yes.
-Mm-hmm.
304
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,835
So, did something...
305
00:12:33,670 --> 00:12:35,171
...tamper with the flight?
306
00:12:35,338 --> 00:12:36,839
It appears that way.
307
00:12:36,965 --> 00:12:38,800
-Okay. Well, we'll let
these guys know. -Yeah.
308
00:12:38,925 --> 00:12:40,593
-Awesome. -Sounds good.
Thank you. -Thanks, guys.
309
00:12:42,804 --> 00:12:44,389
[Thomas] All right, guys,
310
00:12:44,555 --> 00:12:46,266
uh, they were able
to pull the logs.
311
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:49,269
It looks like something
told the drones
312
00:12:49,435 --> 00:12:51,646
to deactivate at 3,271 feet.
313
00:12:51,813 --> 00:12:53,147
Now, interestingly enough,
314
00:12:53,314 --> 00:12:54,691
that was not programmed
into the files.
315
00:12:54,857 --> 00:12:57,735
[Erik] Okay. If it wasn't part
of the program,
316
00:12:57,902 --> 00:12:59,988
then where did
that command come from?
317
00:13:01,030 --> 00:13:02,365
This is really, uh,
318
00:13:02,532 --> 00:13:04,200
an unexpected and, I think, uh,
319
00:13:04,325 --> 00:13:06,035
disturbing sequence of events.
320
00:13:06,202 --> 00:13:08,496
The guys are describing
what happened
321
00:13:08,663 --> 00:13:11,040
as if a kill command was sent
322
00:13:11,165 --> 00:13:14,335
to the four drones, causing them
to fall out of the sky.
323
00:13:14,502 --> 00:13:16,671
Maybe we need to try four more
324
00:13:16,838 --> 00:13:19,007
and see if we can get
above that 3,000-foot mark.
325
00:13:19,132 --> 00:13:21,384
-Let's go. -Okay.
-[Erik] So,
326
00:13:21,551 --> 00:13:23,761
that raises the question of
where such a command
327
00:13:23,886 --> 00:13:25,388
would have originated from
328
00:13:25,555 --> 00:13:30,268
some 3,200 feet in the airspace
above Skinwalker Ranch,
329
00:13:30,435 --> 00:13:31,936
if that is, in fact,
what happened.
330
00:13:32,103 --> 00:13:33,771
[Thomas] All right, guys,
uh, so, you guys
331
00:13:33,938 --> 00:13:37,108
are comfortable
doing another test of four?
332
00:13:37,275 --> 00:13:39,027
Yeah, I think we're willing
to send up four more drones...
333
00:13:39,193 --> 00:13:40,903
-Yeah. -...to the 4,000
to kind of see if we can
334
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:42,905
get better results this time,
but obviously,
335
00:13:43,072 --> 00:13:45,033
with what we just saw, we need
to make sure everybody's safe,
336
00:13:45,199 --> 00:13:46,784
so we'll need to make sure
that everybody just kind of has
337
00:13:46,951 --> 00:13:48,995
some cover over their head
and i-is in a safe position
338
00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:50,830
-to fly the drones again.
-Yeah.
339
00:13:50,997 --> 00:13:52,999
If those four go well,
we can kind of talk about
340
00:13:53,124 --> 00:13:55,334
-continuing with the
larger scale. -[Thomas] Okay.
341
00:13:55,501 --> 00:13:56,878
We'll make sure
that everybody's aware.
342
00:13:57,045 --> 00:13:59,130
-Awesome. Thanks, guys.
-Sounds good. Thank you.
343
00:13:59,297 --> 00:14:02,508
Hey, Travis, we're gonna be
sending another four drones up
344
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:05,470
to see if we can make it
to the 4,000 feet this time.
345
00:14:05,636 --> 00:14:07,764
Copy that.
I'm ready to go when y'all are.
346
00:14:07,930 --> 00:14:10,016
Good. We're ready.
347
00:14:10,183 --> 00:14:11,642
Ready to rock.
348
00:14:11,809 --> 00:14:13,978
-Okay. Uh, drones are going up.
-[Ellis] Five,
349
00:14:14,187 --> 00:14:16,189
four, three,
350
00:14:16,355 --> 00:14:17,982
two, one.
351
00:14:18,149 --> 00:14:19,525
Drones are hot.
352
00:14:22,403 --> 00:14:24,572
Okay, let's go.
353
00:14:24,739 --> 00:14:28,076
Taking off. FPV up.
354
00:14:28,242 --> 00:14:30,078
[Travis] After what we saw
on our first test,
355
00:14:30,244 --> 00:14:33,414
we were all on high alert
as the second swarm flew up
356
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:35,958
to that 3,200-foot level.
357
00:14:36,084 --> 00:14:37,585
If there really was
something up there
358
00:14:37,752 --> 00:14:39,629
dropping our drones dead
out of the sky,
359
00:14:39,796 --> 00:14:41,005
hopefully, this time,
360
00:14:41,172 --> 00:14:43,758
the FPV drone
would catch it on camera.
361
00:14:43,925 --> 00:14:46,135
All right,
they are approaching that 3,000.
362
00:14:46,302 --> 00:14:49,430
When it turns yellow, it will be
at that 3,000-foot mark.
363
00:14:53,601 --> 00:14:55,645
-3,000. -3,000.
-3,000.
364
00:15:00,108 --> 00:15:01,776
-[Thomas] Whoa! -[Matt] Oh,
shoot. -[Kaleb] Uh-oh.
365
00:15:01,943 --> 00:15:03,361
-[Thomas] Flashing. -[Erik] All
right, what's going on?
366
00:15:03,486 --> 00:15:05,530
Everything disconnected
at 3,000 feet.
367
00:15:05,696 --> 00:15:07,031
Coming down. Everybody in!
368
00:15:07,198 --> 00:15:08,616
[Thomas] All right,
they're coming down!
369
00:15:08,783 --> 00:15:10,201
[Travis] They just
started blinking.
370
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:12,328
-What was that about?
-In here. In-in here.
371
00:15:12,495 --> 00:15:14,122
They're blacked out, Travis.
They're coming down.
372
00:15:14,288 --> 00:15:15,581
Where'd they go? I've lost them.
373
00:15:15,790 --> 00:15:17,375
[Ellis] All four
are coming down.
374
00:15:17,542 --> 00:15:18,918
-[Thomas] Can you see them?
-[Kaleb] Yeah, we got them.
375
00:15:19,085 --> 00:15:19,961
[Ellis] Yeah, right there,
right above us.
376
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:21,337
[Kaleb] Are they controlled?
377
00:15:21,546 --> 00:15:23,131
[Thomas] They're close,
they're close.
378
00:15:23,297 --> 00:15:24,465
[Kaleb] They're all right here.
They're all right here.
379
00:15:24,632 --> 00:15:26,092
[Ellis] Okay.
Tight bunch, tight bunch.
380
00:15:27,176 --> 00:15:29,011
[Royston] They're flying
that way.
381
00:15:29,178 --> 00:15:30,680
And one's hovering.
382
00:15:30,805 --> 00:15:31,806
[Thomas] They're coming down
towards you, Travis.
383
00:15:31,973 --> 00:15:33,766
[Kaleb] East field. East field.
384
00:15:35,268 --> 00:15:36,769
[Royston] Three,
I got three of them.
385
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:38,521
-We have eyes on...
-[Ellis] All four are down.
386
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,066
They are all on the ground.
387
00:15:43,067 --> 00:15:45,111
[Brian] Dang. That was crazy.
388
00:15:45,278 --> 00:15:47,905
-[whoops]
-Frickin' unbelievable.
389
00:15:48,072 --> 00:15:51,659
Again, it's as if
a kill command was issued
390
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:54,495
to those four drones, causing
them to plummet from the sky.
391
00:15:54,662 --> 00:15:56,998
That doesn't really
make sense to me.
392
00:15:57,165 --> 00:15:59,834
What this tells me
is that we found
393
00:16:00,001 --> 00:16:01,878
another phenomenon
high above the triangle.
394
00:16:02,003 --> 00:16:04,172
We have drones.
395
00:16:05,256 --> 00:16:06,883
[Thomas] Obviously, we're gonna
have to pull the logs
396
00:16:07,008 --> 00:16:08,551
to know what happened, right?
397
00:16:08,718 --> 00:16:10,219
-Yeah.
-[Matt] Yeah, absolutely.
398
00:16:10,428 --> 00:16:11,929
From my perspective,
looking at the console,
399
00:16:12,096 --> 00:16:13,389
it seemed to be right around
the same altitude
400
00:16:13,556 --> 00:16:15,057
that they disarmed again.
401
00:16:15,266 --> 00:16:17,393
I mean, for lack of
a better term, it's almost like
402
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,437
somebody slapped the drones
out of the sky,
403
00:16:19,604 --> 00:16:22,690
right when they crossed
the 3,271 feet.
404
00:16:22,857 --> 00:16:25,318
Yeah. We don't know
what we're dealing with here.
405
00:16:25,484 --> 00:16:26,944
[Thomas] There's no way
we're getting a hundred drones
406
00:16:27,111 --> 00:16:29,572
-up tonight.
-For sure.
407
00:16:29,739 --> 00:16:31,157
I say we just, uh, we call it.
408
00:16:31,282 --> 00:16:33,075
Travis, I hate to make the call,
409
00:16:33,242 --> 00:16:35,912
-but we're gonna pull
the plug on this. -Copy.
410
00:16:36,078 --> 00:16:38,122
[Travis] We hate to table
an experiment like this,
411
00:16:38,247 --> 00:16:41,000
but after what we saw happen
with just eight drones,
412
00:16:41,125 --> 00:16:44,212
we didn't want to push our luck
with 100 all at once.
413
00:16:44,378 --> 00:16:46,672
But hopefully, we got
something in the data
414
00:16:46,839 --> 00:16:49,842
from these test flights
and our high-speed cameras
415
00:16:49,967 --> 00:16:52,720
that can help us figure out
what the heck happened tonight.
416
00:16:52,845 --> 00:16:54,847
Okay. Well,
let's call it a night.
417
00:16:55,848 --> 00:16:57,350
[Pete] What a night.
418
00:17:02,813 --> 00:17:04,732
[Travis] Hey, how you all doing?
419
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:06,525
Better than
some of the drones...
420
00:17:06,692 --> 00:17:08,444
-from this... -[Kaleb] Yeah.
-Oh, yeah, man.
421
00:17:08,569 --> 00:17:10,070
[Travis] After taking
a couple of days to recover,
422
00:17:10,238 --> 00:17:12,156
I was finally feeling
back to normal,
423
00:17:12,323 --> 00:17:15,201
and it gave Erik the time
he needed to process
424
00:17:15,326 --> 00:17:17,619
and analyze all the video
we captured
425
00:17:17,828 --> 00:17:19,372
during our drone test flights.
426
00:17:20,539 --> 00:17:22,208
I'll start with high-speed video
427
00:17:22,375 --> 00:17:25,877
captured when we sort of see
drones fall out of the sky.
428
00:17:26,045 --> 00:17:28,798
[Royston] If you remember, just
moments before the drones fell,
429
00:17:28,965 --> 00:17:31,842
there were problems
with that FPV drone.
430
00:17:31,968 --> 00:17:35,137
Brian yelled, "Hey,
something just pushed my drone,"
431
00:17:35,346 --> 00:17:36,597
and you, you remember that?
432
00:17:36,764 --> 00:17:38,766
-Yeah.
-And it looked like his drone,
433
00:17:38,933 --> 00:17:40,393
like, moved.
434
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,520
I mean, it literally
looked like something
435
00:17:42,645 --> 00:17:44,188
grabbed it and threw it.
436
00:17:45,147 --> 00:17:46,607
Now, I caught that moment
in Meta-Frame.
437
00:17:46,774 --> 00:17:48,818
Uh, let me bring that up.
438
00:17:49,026 --> 00:17:52,405
So, what we're looking at here
is a sky-facing camera.
439
00:17:52,572 --> 00:17:54,282
We're actually looking up
through one of our antennas
440
00:17:54,407 --> 00:17:55,700
at the triangle.
441
00:17:55,908 --> 00:17:57,159
We're looking at these lights.
442
00:17:57,285 --> 00:17:58,536
We're looking at
the four drones.
443
00:17:58,703 --> 00:18:00,329
And this is the FPV drone
444
00:18:00,496 --> 00:18:02,957
just before that push
that you described.
445
00:18:03,124 --> 00:18:04,667
So, we're looking up
at the apex.
446
00:18:04,834 --> 00:18:07,336
And here's the push.
447
00:18:07,503 --> 00:18:09,964
-[Royston chuckles] Oh.
-[Travis] Wow.
448
00:18:10,131 --> 00:18:11,549
What did that?
449
00:18:17,430 --> 00:18:19,724
[Thomas] What the heck could
affect the drone like that?
450
00:18:20,641 --> 00:18:22,768
It literally looked like
something just grabbed
451
00:18:22,935 --> 00:18:24,854
the FPV drone and threw it.
452
00:18:25,021 --> 00:18:26,856
-[Travis] Right.
-[Kaleb] It was within seconds
453
00:18:27,023 --> 00:18:30,860
-that they fell out of the sky
after that. -[Thomas] Right?
454
00:18:31,027 --> 00:18:32,612
[Travis] The enhanced
surveillance video
455
00:18:32,778 --> 00:18:35,239
clearly shows
the FPV drone moving
456
00:18:35,364 --> 00:18:38,576
like it's been pushed by
something invisible in midair.
457
00:18:38,784 --> 00:18:41,704
But what the heck could have
done that over 3,000 feet high
458
00:18:41,871 --> 00:18:43,164
above the triangle?
459
00:18:43,331 --> 00:18:44,999
Could it be connected
to whatever caused
460
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:48,377
the other drones to fall
out of the sky right after that?
461
00:18:48,586 --> 00:18:50,671
-Now that's crazy.
-[Kaleb] Yeah.
462
00:18:50,838 --> 00:18:53,924
[Erik] Let's look at the moment
the drones fell out of the sky.
463
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:55,593
I want to show you
a different video
464
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,804
looking straight up
from near the command center.
465
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:00,848
This is really zoomed in.
466
00:19:01,015 --> 00:19:05,061
This is a great view of the four
drones and the FPV drone
467
00:19:05,269 --> 00:19:06,687
-there in the upper right.
-[Travis] Mm-hmm.
468
00:19:06,854 --> 00:19:08,648
[Erik] I'll just
play through it.
469
00:19:12,526 --> 00:19:14,904
-Look at the flash. -[Travis]
Now, look. Did you see them?
470
00:19:15,071 --> 00:19:16,614
-Look. Look at that.
-[Thomas] What the...?
471
00:19:16,781 --> 00:19:19,075
[Travis] It looks like
they're moving sideways first.
472
00:19:19,241 --> 00:19:21,202
Then they take off superfast.
473
00:19:21,369 --> 00:19:22,912
-[Kaleb] And then they just
slow down. -Oh, look.
474
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:24,080
-[Thomas] Now they're
coming down. -[Travis] Look,
475
00:19:24,205 --> 00:19:25,623
it's tumbling. One's tumbling.
476
00:19:27,041 --> 00:19:29,001
What the heck?
477
00:19:29,126 --> 00:19:30,753
[Travis] Kind of matches
what Brian said
478
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,798
about the FPV drone
suddenly going, like, 100 feet.
479
00:19:33,964 --> 00:19:35,800
-[Kaleb] Like they got pushed.
-Like something pushed him
480
00:19:35,925 --> 00:19:37,677
o-out of the way,
like 100 foot in one direction.
481
00:19:37,843 --> 00:19:39,428
[Royston] Did they
all get pushed
482
00:19:39,595 --> 00:19:41,180
-just the same way as his?
-[Travis] The same...
483
00:19:41,389 --> 00:19:42,306
-whatever that phenomenon is.
-We'll have to factor that
484
00:19:42,473 --> 00:19:44,850
-and see.
-Yeah.
485
00:19:45,017 --> 00:19:46,268
[Travis] If these drones
were just turned off
486
00:19:46,435 --> 00:19:48,104
by some kill command,
487
00:19:48,270 --> 00:19:50,398
we'd have expected to see them
fall straight down.
488
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:52,358
But instead, they look like
489
00:19:52,525 --> 00:19:55,611
they veer off to the south
and then drop straight down.
490
00:19:55,778 --> 00:19:58,197
What's really curious
is how the FPV drone,
491
00:19:58,322 --> 00:20:00,157
which only has a camera,
492
00:20:00,324 --> 00:20:03,202
was pushed away from that area,
but the other drones,
493
00:20:03,369 --> 00:20:05,371
which have magnetometers
for identifying
494
00:20:05,538 --> 00:20:08,874
electromagnetic energy,
were overridden by something.
495
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:10,918
It's almost like
they were shut off
496
00:20:11,085 --> 00:20:14,505
to stop them from collecting
data at that 3,200-foot mark.
497
00:20:14,672 --> 00:20:16,340
It sounds nuts,
498
00:20:16,549 --> 00:20:18,384
but could that be
what really happened?
499
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:20,678
And if so, what's up there?
500
00:20:20,845 --> 00:20:22,513
Do we have a different angle
of the same moment
501
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,557
-that we can that compare it to?
-Sure.
502
00:20:24,724 --> 00:20:28,102
[Erik] I have one more view
from a Meta-Frame time-lapse.
503
00:20:28,269 --> 00:20:29,645
Now, what we're looking at here,
504
00:20:29,812 --> 00:20:32,273
this camera is positioned
south of the triangle,
505
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,692
angled up at that airspace.
506
00:20:34,859 --> 00:20:36,235
Four drones go up.
507
00:20:36,402 --> 00:20:38,237
It only looks like one
508
00:20:38,404 --> 00:20:40,865
because they're
so close together.
509
00:20:41,991 --> 00:20:43,951
-[Travis] Oh, wow, look at that.
-[Thomas] Oh...
510
00:20:44,118 --> 00:20:46,162
[chuckles]
511
00:20:46,287 --> 00:20:47,538
[Erik] Let's take a look
at that again.
512
00:20:47,747 --> 00:20:49,206
We'll frame-advance this.
513
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:51,500
-Now, did you, did you notice--
-[Travis] Hey, whoa, whoa,
514
00:20:51,709 --> 00:20:53,335
yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
515
00:20:53,502 --> 00:20:55,087
-[Erik] Look up there.
-Look at that.
516
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:56,922
[Erik] Right here.
517
00:20:57,089 --> 00:20:58,007
-[Thomas] Flash, possibly?
-[Travis] Yeah, there's a flash
518
00:20:58,174 --> 00:20:59,592
right by them.
519
00:20:59,759 --> 00:21:01,719
What was that flash?
520
00:21:01,844 --> 00:21:03,387
[Erik] Let's dive in on this.
521
00:21:06,515 --> 00:21:09,143
-What is this?
-[Kaleb] Yeah.
522
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:12,396
[Erik] Let's see here.
523
00:21:12,563 --> 00:21:14,440
[Travis] It's only there
for one frame?
524
00:21:14,607 --> 00:21:16,567
-[Erik] Yeah. Now keep in mind,
this is... -[Travis] Time-lapse.
525
00:21:16,734 --> 00:21:18,277
-[Erik]...a time-lapse.
-[Kaleb] Mm-hmm.
526
00:21:18,444 --> 00:21:20,404
[Travis] But what
the hell is it?
527
00:21:20,571 --> 00:21:23,032
We get this blink,
the drones get to the spot...
528
00:21:23,199 --> 00:21:24,408
then the drones fall.
529
00:21:24,575 --> 00:21:26,577
-Wow.
-[Thomas] Mm-hmm.
530
00:21:26,786 --> 00:21:29,330
That's so odd, man.
531
00:21:29,497 --> 00:21:31,040
Could this flash of light
532
00:21:31,165 --> 00:21:33,209
Erik captured
on the enhanced video
533
00:21:33,375 --> 00:21:36,128
be what caused the drones
to drop out of the sky?
534
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:38,672
If so, what the heck is it?
535
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:40,341
And where did it come from?
536
00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:42,760
You know, this is
another case of an experiment
537
00:21:42,885 --> 00:21:46,180
that did not go at all the way
we had hoped and planned,
538
00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:48,140
but we did get
539
00:21:48,349 --> 00:21:49,809
-important insights here.
-[Travis] Yeah.
540
00:21:49,975 --> 00:21:51,769
Yeah, that's amazing.
W-We've got a lot to look at
541
00:21:51,936 --> 00:21:53,521
and figure out what it is.
542
00:21:53,646 --> 00:21:55,481
[Erik] Look, we've been
talking about a lot of ways
543
00:21:55,606 --> 00:21:58,526
to study the space, you know,
right there above the triangle.
544
00:21:58,692 --> 00:22:00,194
One of the discussions
we've been having
545
00:22:00,361 --> 00:22:01,779
for-for years now
546
00:22:01,987 --> 00:22:04,949
is how could we bring
Doppler radar
547
00:22:05,115 --> 00:22:07,284
to scan these high altitudes.
548
00:22:07,451 --> 00:22:09,203
That'd be interesting
to look at.
549
00:22:09,328 --> 00:22:11,372
Would it pick up objects
that we're not seeing
550
00:22:11,539 --> 00:22:14,667
-with our, uh, naked eye, right?
-Yeah.
551
00:22:14,834 --> 00:22:16,836
[Thomas] So, it might
help us figure out
552
00:22:17,002 --> 00:22:19,046
what's up there
where those drones fell?
553
00:22:19,213 --> 00:22:20,673
That's exactly right.
554
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,258
[Travis] I say we find a way
to make it happen.
555
00:22:22,424 --> 00:22:24,051
Yeah.
556
00:22:24,218 --> 00:22:25,761
[Travis] Let's get after it.
557
00:22:34,645 --> 00:22:37,106
[Kaleb] You can go ahead
and park here.
558
00:22:38,774 --> 00:22:40,860
-[Josh] Hello!
-Nice to have you guys out.
559
00:22:41,068 --> 00:22:42,945
-Hey. Nice to meet you.
-Yeah, we'll just...
560
00:22:43,112 --> 00:22:45,698
take you in to the rest
of the guys and we'll get going.
561
00:22:46,740 --> 00:22:49,785
A couple days later, we arranged
for Doppler radar experts
562
00:22:49,952 --> 00:22:52,788
Dr. Karen Kosiba
and Dr. Josh Wurman
563
00:22:52,955 --> 00:22:54,331
to come out to the ranch.
564
00:22:55,332 --> 00:22:57,960
[Kaleb] We've got Josh
and Karen with DOW radar.
565
00:22:59,003 --> 00:23:00,754
-Come on in. Hi.
Good to meet you. -[Karen] Hi.
566
00:23:00,921 --> 00:23:02,172
-Yeah. -[Kaleb] I'll leave
you guys to it,
567
00:23:02,339 --> 00:23:04,300
-I'm gonna go...
-[Travis] Travis.
568
00:23:06,260 --> 00:23:08,012
Glad to get you
and your equipment out here.
569
00:23:08,178 --> 00:23:09,513
Really exciting for us.
570
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,390
And I'd like to
have you walk us through
571
00:23:11,557 --> 00:23:13,726
you know, what you guys do
and, uh, what kind of equipment
572
00:23:13,893 --> 00:23:15,311
you're using
and how it all works.
573
00:23:15,477 --> 00:23:17,605
We're all
meteorology researchers.
574
00:23:17,771 --> 00:23:22,401
We operate a fleet
of mobile weather radars.
575
00:23:22,526 --> 00:23:24,820
That's why they're
called "Doppler on Wheels."
576
00:23:25,029 --> 00:23:26,405
[Karen] I mean, I always think
radars are, you know,
577
00:23:26,572 --> 00:23:27,907
like flashlights
going through the atmosphere.
578
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,283
You know,
you're sending out pulses
579
00:23:29,450 --> 00:23:31,201
of electromagnetic energy,
580
00:23:31,327 --> 00:23:33,162
and you're looking
at the return, the power
581
00:23:33,329 --> 00:23:35,039
-that's coming back to you.
-Okay.
582
00:23:35,164 --> 00:23:36,874
So, it's-it's a weather radar.
583
00:23:37,041 --> 00:23:38,709
Um, we're usually
using it for weather.
584
00:23:38,876 --> 00:23:41,503
We built these
for tornadoes, hurricanes,
585
00:23:41,670 --> 00:23:43,505
other types of phenomena.
586
00:23:43,672 --> 00:23:45,090
-To detect water, right?
-Yes.
587
00:23:45,257 --> 00:23:46,842
We're making maps, basically.
588
00:23:47,009 --> 00:23:48,886
[Erik] I think it'd be
a good idea to sort of
589
00:23:49,053 --> 00:23:51,889
back up and give some context
to what we want to do here.
590
00:23:52,056 --> 00:23:55,100
We are interested
in imaging a region of space
591
00:23:55,309 --> 00:23:57,937
that sits right over
this feature here
592
00:23:58,103 --> 00:23:59,813
that we've been
calling the "triangle."
593
00:23:59,980 --> 00:24:02,441
[Travis] Right, but instead
of using water droplets to see,
594
00:24:02,566 --> 00:24:04,652
we'll be using aluminum bottles.
595
00:24:04,818 --> 00:24:06,737
To study weather systems,
596
00:24:06,946 --> 00:24:09,740
Doppler radar works
by sending out microwaves
597
00:24:09,949 --> 00:24:12,159
that bounce off
raindrops in the air
598
00:24:12,284 --> 00:24:13,827
and then return to a radar dish.
599
00:24:13,994 --> 00:24:16,413
This helps to spot
and track storm clouds,
600
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:18,958
tornadoes, you name it,
in the environment.
601
00:24:19,124 --> 00:24:20,751
So, tonight,
we're going to adapt
602
00:24:20,918 --> 00:24:22,962
this tech for our investigation
603
00:24:23,087 --> 00:24:26,632
to hopefully see strange things
inside and above the bubble.
604
00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:28,842
Since there's no rain
in the forecast
605
00:24:29,009 --> 00:24:30,844
for the next couple of days,
we're gonna drop
606
00:24:31,011 --> 00:24:33,722
hundreds of GPS-equipped
aluminum bottles
607
00:24:33,847 --> 00:24:36,100
with parachutes
from the helicopter.
608
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:37,893
As those bottles descend down,
609
00:24:38,060 --> 00:24:39,853
we'll be able to track
their movements on radar
610
00:24:40,020 --> 00:24:42,439
and also look for anything else
around them
611
00:24:42,564 --> 00:24:44,858
that might be invisible
to the naked eye,
612
00:24:45,067 --> 00:24:46,652
like whatever shut off
those drones
613
00:24:46,819 --> 00:24:49,113
over 3,000 feet in the air.
614
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:51,323
We want to do this experiment
during daylight hours
615
00:24:51,448 --> 00:24:53,158
for best visibility.
616
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:55,369
So, since the team
wasn't able to get here
617
00:24:55,536 --> 00:24:57,037
until the late afternoon,
618
00:24:57,204 --> 00:24:59,039
we'll run
the main experiment tomorrow.
619
00:24:59,164 --> 00:25:01,125
But we still have time
to run a test.
620
00:25:01,291 --> 00:25:03,210
So, we're gonna
fire rockets to make sure
621
00:25:03,377 --> 00:25:05,254
the Doppler radar can image them
622
00:25:05,421 --> 00:25:07,464
and potentially reveal
any possible anomalies
623
00:25:07,631 --> 00:25:08,882
above the ranch.
624
00:25:09,049 --> 00:25:10,759
This is right up our alley,
625
00:25:10,884 --> 00:25:13,137
trying to observe something new
and-and different like this.
626
00:25:13,345 --> 00:25:15,514
[Erik] That's very encouraging.
627
00:25:15,681 --> 00:25:17,641
You know, phase one
of this effort is really...
628
00:25:17,766 --> 00:25:21,145
we want to see if our Doppler
radar can pick up a rocket.
629
00:25:21,311 --> 00:25:24,523
That way, we can test to see
how well the radar works
630
00:25:24,648 --> 00:25:26,316
before we drop
all these bottles.
631
00:25:26,483 --> 00:25:28,110
That will kind of
give us a baseline.
632
00:25:28,277 --> 00:25:29,737
-Okay.
-So, instead of us
633
00:25:29,903 --> 00:25:31,447
talking about the experiment
we're gonna do, I say
634
00:25:31,613 --> 00:25:34,241
-we get out there and let's do
the experiment. -Yeah.
635
00:25:40,873 --> 00:25:42,374
[Josh] Uh, we can park here.
636
00:25:42,541 --> 00:25:44,543
Dude, I think right there
is perfect.
637
00:25:45,794 --> 00:25:47,546
To begin the test phase
of our experiment,
638
00:25:47,713 --> 00:25:49,381
I set up in the east field
639
00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:51,341
with the mobile
Doppler radar team
640
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:54,428
so they could run scans
back toward the triangle.
641
00:25:54,595 --> 00:25:55,763
We want to make sure
we'll be able
642
00:25:55,929 --> 00:25:57,890
to capture images of the rockets
643
00:25:58,057 --> 00:25:59,683
and maybe see
if the Doppler can reveal
644
00:25:59,808 --> 00:26:02,019
anything else in that area
above the ranch.
645
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:04,396
All right,
we'll get this started.
646
00:26:04,563 --> 00:26:05,773
All right.
647
00:26:05,939 --> 00:26:07,566
Sideways...
648
00:26:07,733 --> 00:26:09,193
[Josh] Okay.
649
00:26:12,821 --> 00:26:14,948
-There you go.
-They're level.
650
00:26:15,115 --> 00:26:16,658
[Josh] Let's put up the masts.
651
00:26:16,867 --> 00:26:18,744
[Travis] While Kaleb and Thomas
652
00:26:18,911 --> 00:26:21,288
prepare to launch a rocket
from the triangle,
653
00:26:21,455 --> 00:26:25,292
Erik will be watching everything
from back at the command center.
654
00:26:26,627 --> 00:26:27,961
Hey, guys.
655
00:26:28,087 --> 00:26:29,922
-Hi.
-Hi. Come on in.
656
00:26:30,047 --> 00:26:32,216
-So, we're up and running?
-We are.
657
00:26:34,343 --> 00:26:35,803
[Travis] So, the triangle
is probably about right here.
658
00:26:35,969 --> 00:26:37,471
-[Karen] Yeah.
-[Josh] So, right there.
659
00:26:37,638 --> 00:26:39,056
[Josh] Yeah, so, this is sort of
where your triangle is.
660
00:26:39,223 --> 00:26:40,516
[Travis] Yeah, I see that.
661
00:26:40,682 --> 00:26:43,227
Okay, I'm gonna have them
launch a rocket now.
662
00:26:43,393 --> 00:26:45,395
Let's see if the radar
picks it up.
663
00:26:45,562 --> 00:26:47,481
Hey, Kaleb.
664
00:26:47,606 --> 00:26:50,359
Would y'all launch a rocket
down there at the triangle?
665
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:54,071
-10-4.
-[Thomas] Going hot.
666
00:26:55,739 --> 00:26:57,116
[Kaleb] Going in five,
667
00:26:57,282 --> 00:26:59,576
four, three,
668
00:26:59,743 --> 00:27:01,161
two...
669
00:27:05,582 --> 00:27:08,043
-That right... Oh.
-Oh, oh, oh...
670
00:27:08,210 --> 00:27:09,753
[Travis] Look here.
671
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,755
This red and yellow
streak indicates
672
00:27:11,922 --> 00:27:13,924
an object moving
at a high rate of speed.
673
00:27:14,091 --> 00:27:15,884
-That may be the rocket.
-[Josh] That might be your guy.
674
00:27:16,051 --> 00:27:17,511
-[Travis] Yeah.
-[Karen] Yeah.
675
00:27:17,678 --> 00:27:20,430
[Travis] Yeah, we saw
the rocket on the radar.
676
00:27:20,597 --> 00:27:21,932
Copy that. Perfect.
677
00:27:23,934 --> 00:27:25,269
Wow. Look at that.
678
00:27:25,435 --> 00:27:27,437
That yellow streak shows
there's something else
679
00:27:27,563 --> 00:27:29,189
moving at a high rate of speed.
680
00:27:29,356 --> 00:27:30,816
What is that?
681
00:27:32,526 --> 00:27:34,278
-[Josh] Can you click on that?
-[Karen] Yeah.
682
00:27:35,821 --> 00:27:38,323
[Travis] Yeah,
it's definitely moving.
683
00:27:38,448 --> 00:27:40,909
That's not the rocket.
What the crap?
684
00:27:41,076 --> 00:27:44,413
Not five seconds after
the rocket was launched,
685
00:27:44,580 --> 00:27:46,373
some kind of big,
elongated object
686
00:27:46,540 --> 00:27:48,166
appeared on the radar screen
687
00:27:48,333 --> 00:27:49,626
that looked like it was flying
688
00:27:49,793 --> 00:27:51,545
through the air
and toward the triangle.
689
00:27:51,712 --> 00:27:54,548
That's what,
about 600 feet high?
690
00:27:54,715 --> 00:27:56,258
[Josh] Yeah.
691
00:27:56,466 --> 00:27:57,843
[Travis] It looked to be
inside the bubble.
692
00:27:58,010 --> 00:27:59,803
But where did it come from?
693
00:27:59,970 --> 00:28:01,805
Was it related
to the electromagnetic zone
694
00:28:01,972 --> 00:28:05,976
we've recently detected
between 750 and 1,000 feet?
695
00:28:06,143 --> 00:28:08,937
That's-that's steadily moving,
whatever that is.
696
00:28:09,146 --> 00:28:11,315
-[Josh] It's going that way.
-[Karen] Yeah. -[Travis] Yeah.
697
00:28:11,481 --> 00:28:13,483
[Travis] Kaleb, look up.
698
00:28:13,650 --> 00:28:17,529
We have a large object
at about 600 feet high
699
00:28:17,696 --> 00:28:20,616
from the west
moving to the east.
700
00:28:20,782 --> 00:28:22,242
What?
701
00:28:22,409 --> 00:28:24,369
[Thomas] There's nothing there.
702
00:28:24,536 --> 00:28:27,331
[Travis] Now it's getting
closer to the triangle.
703
00:28:27,497 --> 00:28:29,791
There's some kind of object
over the triangle
704
00:28:29,958 --> 00:28:32,044
that's pretty large
in the radar.
705
00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:34,796
-You guys seeing anything?
-[Pete] No. -No.
706
00:28:36,214 --> 00:28:38,967
We are not seeing anything
707
00:28:39,134 --> 00:28:40,636
from our location.
708
00:28:40,802 --> 00:28:42,804
-Boy, it's there, clearly.
Look at that. -Yeah.
709
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,396
Well, it looks to be
potentially gone now.
710
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,900
[Thomas] Travis,
are you still seeing it there?
711
00:28:55,108 --> 00:28:56,944
'Cause we're not
seeing anything.
712
00:28:57,945 --> 00:28:59,821
We're not seeing it now, guys.
713
00:29:00,030 --> 00:29:01,990
We're gonna change
the angle of the radar
714
00:29:02,157 --> 00:29:04,159
to try to see
if it's still there.
715
00:29:04,326 --> 00:29:05,744
[Thomas] Pete, Kaleb and I
couldn't see
716
00:29:05,911 --> 00:29:07,329
anything with the naked eye
717
00:29:07,496 --> 00:29:09,331
that could account
for this object
718
00:29:09,498 --> 00:29:11,667
that they're seeing
in the Doppler radar.
719
00:29:11,833 --> 00:29:13,877
Travis reports that the object
they were seeing
720
00:29:14,044 --> 00:29:16,463
in the Doppler radar
was no longer appearing.
721
00:29:17,547 --> 00:29:19,091
So, they're going
to move the radar angle
722
00:29:19,257 --> 00:29:21,718
to see if the object
maybe moved upwards.
723
00:29:21,843 --> 00:29:24,304
This was in hopes
that the radar truck
724
00:29:24,471 --> 00:29:27,307
could catch that object again
and hopefully
725
00:29:27,474 --> 00:29:30,477
help us verify the accuracy
of the data that we are getting.
726
00:29:33,605 --> 00:29:35,315
-[chuckles] Look at that guy.
-Yeah.
727
00:29:35,482 --> 00:29:36,692
-There.
-There it is.
728
00:29:36,858 --> 00:29:38,151
[Travis] Yeah,
that is something.
729
00:29:38,318 --> 00:29:40,570
That is right
on the bubble boundary.
730
00:29:40,737 --> 00:29:42,531
Still there.
731
00:29:42,698 --> 00:29:44,491
Look towards the posts we have
marking the western side
732
00:29:44,658 --> 00:29:49,329
of the bubble boundary,
around post number nine or ten.
733
00:29:49,496 --> 00:29:53,083
Right now, there's some sort
of anomaly right over that post,
734
00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:55,293
at 500 feet high.
735
00:29:56,503 --> 00:29:59,089
-There's nothing there.
-No.
736
00:29:59,256 --> 00:30:01,049
[Thomas] There's not even birds.
737
00:30:02,050 --> 00:30:04,720
We're just not seeing
anything, Travis.
738
00:30:04,845 --> 00:30:06,471
[Travis] That's crazy.
739
00:30:07,681 --> 00:30:09,683
There it... Look.
740
00:30:09,850 --> 00:30:12,019
That's right over the triangle.
Now we're seeing
741
00:30:12,227 --> 00:30:14,271
an anomaly
right over the triangle, guys.
742
00:30:14,438 --> 00:30:15,689
What?
743
00:30:15,856 --> 00:30:18,191
[Thomas] Right over
the triangle?
744
00:30:18,358 --> 00:30:20,610
There's-there's nothing there.
745
00:30:20,777 --> 00:30:22,654
We're not seeing anything
746
00:30:22,821 --> 00:30:26,074
that would account
for that anomaly right now.
747
00:30:27,325 --> 00:30:28,869
Travis,
I have got eyes straight out
748
00:30:29,036 --> 00:30:30,996
into that space,
and I am seeing nothing.
749
00:30:31,163 --> 00:30:32,414
This is really interesting.
750
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:33,874
You're picking up on things
751
00:30:34,041 --> 00:30:36,001
that none
of our other assets can see.
752
00:30:38,628 --> 00:30:41,048
-There was nothing over there.
-It doesn't make any sense.
753
00:30:42,883 --> 00:30:44,801
[Travis] What did we just see
on the radar?
754
00:30:44,926 --> 00:30:47,179
It was cigar-shaped
and fairly large.
755
00:30:47,387 --> 00:30:50,807
I would guess the size
of a jet plane or a blimp.
756
00:30:53,852 --> 00:30:56,021
[Josh] Now I don't see it.
757
00:30:56,229 --> 00:30:58,774
[Travis] We're not
seeing it now, but there was
758
00:30:58,940 --> 00:31:01,735
a clear object
that came from the west,
759
00:31:01,902 --> 00:31:04,863
flew over the triangle,
and it was large.
760
00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,531
But where did it go?
761
00:31:06,698 --> 00:31:08,700
Again, could the answer
be connected
762
00:31:08,909 --> 00:31:11,244
to that electromagnetic zone
above the triangle
763
00:31:11,411 --> 00:31:12,871
and in the heart of the bubble?
764
00:31:13,038 --> 00:31:16,124
Especially since
it disappeared in the same area.
765
00:31:16,291 --> 00:31:19,461
All I can say
is that was a hell of a test.
766
00:31:19,669 --> 00:31:21,546
Everybody be advised,
767
00:31:21,713 --> 00:31:23,256
whatever that was,
we're not seeing
768
00:31:23,423 --> 00:31:25,842
anything anymore on the radar.
769
00:31:26,009 --> 00:31:28,178
We're shutting the radar
down now, and they're gonna
770
00:31:28,386 --> 00:31:30,472
get it ready
for, uh, tomorrow's use.
771
00:31:30,639 --> 00:31:32,474
That sounds like a great plan.
772
00:31:32,641 --> 00:31:34,309
We're gonna clean
everything up here
773
00:31:34,476 --> 00:31:37,104
-and we're gonna wrap it up.
-[Travis] Sounds good.
774
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:42,400
[Cameron] Command center,
this is Cameron.
775
00:31:43,318 --> 00:31:45,695
We're just coming over
the drill site now.
776
00:31:45,862 --> 00:31:48,490
Copy you, Cameron.
Got eyes on you.
777
00:31:49,574 --> 00:31:51,827
[Travis] After yesterday's
amazing test
778
00:31:51,993 --> 00:31:54,454
with the Doppler radar,
we can't wait to see
779
00:31:54,621 --> 00:31:56,998
what dropping the metal bottles
from Cameron Fugal's helicopter
780
00:31:57,124 --> 00:31:58,625
might reveal.
781
00:31:58,792 --> 00:32:00,335
How's it going, guys?
782
00:32:00,502 --> 00:32:02,129
Oh, hey, Cameron. How's it
going, man? Good to see you.
783
00:32:02,295 --> 00:32:04,589
I want to introduce you
to Jereme Manhart,
784
00:32:04,756 --> 00:32:07,884
our director for maintenance
for Aero Dynamic Jets.
785
00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:09,803
Uh, we're bringing him
out here today to help
786
00:32:09,928 --> 00:32:12,139
-with some of these experiments.
-Excellent.
787
00:32:12,347 --> 00:32:13,723
I'm excited to get started.
788
00:32:13,890 --> 00:32:15,475
-[Travis] We got work to do,
let's do it. -Yes.
789
00:32:15,642 --> 00:32:17,519
-Let's get back at it.
-[Erik] All right, guys.
790
00:32:17,686 --> 00:32:19,062
[Travis] Cameron will make
several passes
791
00:32:19,229 --> 00:32:21,481
with his helicopter
over the triangle area
792
00:32:21,606 --> 00:32:24,109
at various altitudes
above the bubble.
793
00:32:24,276 --> 00:32:27,112
Meanwhile,
his colleague Jereme Manhart
794
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:30,323
and Pete Kelsey will drop
100 aluminum bottles
795
00:32:30,448 --> 00:32:34,286
containing GPS devices
down through that same airspace.
796
00:32:34,452 --> 00:32:35,912
-[Cameron] That's a lot
in there. -The bottles
797
00:32:36,079 --> 00:32:39,040
will be deployed with parachutes
so the Doppler radar
798
00:32:39,166 --> 00:32:41,501
can easily track them
as they descend.
799
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:43,670
[Cameron] Everything is secure,
we've done the preflight.
800
00:32:43,837 --> 00:32:45,088
Everything's great
on the helicopter.
801
00:32:45,255 --> 00:32:46,798
I think we're ready
to do this, guys.
802
00:32:46,965 --> 00:32:48,842
[Travis] Hopefully,
all these bottles
803
00:32:49,009 --> 00:32:50,468
will not only collect data
804
00:32:50,635 --> 00:32:52,470
but help us get
an even better look
805
00:32:52,637 --> 00:32:55,056
at any UAPs
like we saw yesterday
806
00:32:55,223 --> 00:32:58,894
as they pass through
that 750 to 1,000-foot-high
807
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:01,354
electromagnetic anomaly zone.
808
00:33:02,355 --> 00:33:03,857
-How are y'all doing?
-[Josh] We're good.
809
00:33:04,065 --> 00:33:06,109
We're scanning directly
over the triangle now.
810
00:33:06,276 --> 00:33:07,819
[Travis] All right.
811
00:33:08,028 --> 00:33:10,363
[Thomas] That should be good.
812
00:33:10,488 --> 00:33:11,907
[Travis] Since a rocket launch
at the triangle
813
00:33:12,073 --> 00:33:14,534
correlated with
that thing appearing yesterday,
814
00:33:14,701 --> 00:33:17,162
what better way
to kick things off today?
815
00:33:17,329 --> 00:33:20,790
All right, the rocket's
on the launchpad.
816
00:33:20,957 --> 00:33:22,792
Okay, Erik, be advised,
we are ready
817
00:33:22,959 --> 00:33:24,961
to do our first, uh,
test launch.
818
00:33:25,086 --> 00:33:27,172
We got the radar running
and there's a rocket on the pad.
819
00:33:27,339 --> 00:33:28,798
-Are you good to go?
-I'm good to go
820
00:33:28,924 --> 00:33:30,300
at the command center.
821
00:33:30,508 --> 00:33:32,010
Five, four,
822
00:33:32,177 --> 00:33:34,554
three, two, one.
823
00:33:39,476 --> 00:33:41,603
Good launch.
824
00:33:41,728 --> 00:33:43,396
[Karen] Ooh.
825
00:33:43,563 --> 00:33:45,732
-Here. -[Travis] That was
a great launch, fellas.
826
00:33:45,899 --> 00:33:47,275
Good job, good job.
827
00:33:47,442 --> 00:33:49,319
[Josh] Yeah, I think we got it.
828
00:33:49,486 --> 00:33:50,904
-Awesome.
-Yeah.
829
00:33:51,071 --> 00:33:52,489
I mean, it sweeps through,
but Karen got it
830
00:33:52,656 --> 00:33:55,242
-on a screen there.
-Oh, yeah, look at that.
831
00:33:55,367 --> 00:33:57,035
[Travis] Be advised,
they did catch
832
00:33:57,202 --> 00:33:59,329
that rocket launch on the radar.
833
00:33:59,496 --> 00:34:00,914
No sign yet
834
00:34:01,081 --> 00:34:02,499
of those anomalies
we saw yesterday.
835
00:34:02,707 --> 00:34:04,251
Copy at the command center.
836
00:34:04,417 --> 00:34:06,378
Yeah, Cameron, we're ready
for you to get in the air
837
00:34:06,586 --> 00:34:08,922
and go over and, uh, do an orbit
838
00:34:09,047 --> 00:34:12,467
at 2,500 feet,
drop bottles above the bubble.
839
00:34:12,634 --> 00:34:15,011
Okay, we'll lift off here
immediately.
840
00:34:15,178 --> 00:34:16,638
-Okay, ready, guys?
-[Jereme] Ready.
841
00:34:16,804 --> 00:34:18,348
Send it.
842
00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:29,025
[Travis] We chose 2,500 feet
for this first pass
843
00:34:29,192 --> 00:34:30,819
because we want to see
what happens
844
00:34:31,027 --> 00:34:34,197
as the bottles descend through
the top boundary of the bubble.
845
00:34:34,364 --> 00:34:37,242
On a day like today,
with practically no wind,
846
00:34:37,367 --> 00:34:39,202
we're expecting
these bottles to drop
847
00:34:39,327 --> 00:34:40,996
more or less straight down.
848
00:34:41,161 --> 00:34:43,290
That is, unless
they're being pushed away
849
00:34:43,456 --> 00:34:45,166
by the bubble boundary,
850
00:34:45,333 --> 00:34:46,835
which is something
that keeps happening
851
00:34:47,002 --> 00:34:48,837
to our instruments
during the experiments.
852
00:34:51,422 --> 00:34:53,550
[Cameron] All right,
we're at 2,500 feet.
853
00:34:53,717 --> 00:34:56,719
We're about to turn back
to the east.
854
00:34:56,844 --> 00:34:59,180
Everybody be advised,
we are literally seconds away
855
00:34:59,389 --> 00:35:01,600
from the bottles being
tossed out of the helicopter
856
00:35:01,725 --> 00:35:03,351
from 2,500 feet.
857
00:35:03,518 --> 00:35:06,104
Copy. We're ready
to start scanning.
858
00:35:09,482 --> 00:35:10,817
Bombs away, Cameron.
859
00:35:11,026 --> 00:35:13,111
-Bombs away.
-Okay, uh...
860
00:35:13,278 --> 00:35:15,822
Five, four, three, two, one,
861
00:35:15,989 --> 00:35:18,033
we're dropping.
862
00:35:22,954 --> 00:35:24,831
[Travis] Oh, yeah,
I see them now.
863
00:35:24,998 --> 00:35:26,207
[Thomas] I can see them.
864
00:35:26,374 --> 00:35:27,667
Yeah, guys,
I can see the bottles
865
00:35:27,834 --> 00:35:29,044
coming out of the helicopter.
866
00:35:29,210 --> 00:35:30,629
They're pretty shiny.
867
00:35:30,795 --> 00:35:32,339
[Thomas] We got
good eyes on them.
868
00:35:33,298 --> 00:35:34,841
Hey, look, look, look, look.
Get in here.
869
00:35:37,260 --> 00:35:40,430
[Travis] Josh, are you seeing
any of the bottles on the radar?
870
00:35:40,597 --> 00:35:42,140
[Josh] Yes, I think we see
871
00:35:42,349 --> 00:35:43,683
what's probably them.
872
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:45,935
[Karen] Oh, there's another one.
873
00:35:52,859 --> 00:35:54,861
Looks like they got
some more coming out.
874
00:35:55,070 --> 00:35:56,655
Look at that.
875
00:35:56,821 --> 00:35:59,282
Those look like they're
getting pushed to the south...
876
00:35:59,449 --> 00:36:00,784
while those ones look like
they're getting pushed
877
00:36:00,950 --> 00:36:02,285
to the north.
878
00:36:05,205 --> 00:36:07,165
-I'm out.
-[Cameron] How you doing, Pete?
879
00:36:07,332 --> 00:36:08,958
Last bottle. That was it.
880
00:36:09,084 --> 00:36:11,711
Okay, all bottles are away.
We've emptied all bottles.
881
00:36:11,878 --> 00:36:13,963
-We're heading back.
-[Travis] Copy that.
882
00:36:14,089 --> 00:36:16,132
[Travis] They're approaching
the bubble now.
883
00:36:16,299 --> 00:36:19,886
[Thomas] Wait a minute.
That's weird.
884
00:36:20,053 --> 00:36:21,846
These ones being
dropped out right here
885
00:36:22,013 --> 00:36:23,932
are directly above the triangle.
886
00:36:25,975 --> 00:36:28,395
-I'm gonna follow
these ones down. -[Kaleb] Yeah.
887
00:36:29,896 --> 00:36:31,272
[Thomas] Those look like
they're gonna be right on
888
00:36:31,439 --> 00:36:32,774
-the bubble boundary.
-[chuckles]
889
00:36:35,402 --> 00:36:37,362
-What the...
-[Travis] Pretty crazy.
890
00:36:37,529 --> 00:36:39,572
Do you still see them
falling, visually,
891
00:36:39,739 --> 00:36:41,032
or do you think
they're already on the ground?
892
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:43,201
I think they're on the ground.
893
00:36:43,326 --> 00:36:45,662
-Yeah, they're on the ground.
-[Josh] Copy.
894
00:36:45,870 --> 00:36:48,498
[Thomas] Let it be noted that,
of all those 100 bottles,
895
00:36:48,707 --> 00:36:51,167
not a single one
landed in the triangle.
896
00:36:52,711 --> 00:36:54,212
That's crazy.
897
00:36:56,965 --> 00:36:59,259
[Thomas] Let it be noted that,
of all those 100 bottles,
898
00:36:59,467 --> 00:37:02,512
not a single one
landed in the triangle.
899
00:37:02,679 --> 00:37:04,222
That's crazy.
900
00:37:04,431 --> 00:37:06,850
[Thomas] We have nothing
in the triangle. Like, nothing.
901
00:37:07,016 --> 00:37:08,935
[Travis] I mean,
it's clearly more evidence
902
00:37:09,144 --> 00:37:10,562
that something keeps interfering
903
00:37:10,729 --> 00:37:12,731
whenever we try to collect data
904
00:37:12,897 --> 00:37:14,774
in the bubble
above the triangle.
905
00:37:14,941 --> 00:37:17,318
It just defies
all nature and logic.
906
00:37:17,444 --> 00:37:18,987
Nobody pick the bottles up.
907
00:37:19,154 --> 00:37:21,406
We want GPS points
of every bottle.
908
00:37:21,573 --> 00:37:23,032
So, we'll wait
to collect the data
909
00:37:23,199 --> 00:37:25,118
until after the experiment.
910
00:37:25,285 --> 00:37:27,787
-Copy that. -[Travis] We'll
track each bottle down later
911
00:37:27,954 --> 00:37:30,373
and see if their GPS data
will verify
912
00:37:30,540 --> 00:37:32,876
that they were stopped
2,000 feet high at the top
913
00:37:33,042 --> 00:37:36,880
of the bubble barrier and
then slid down it to the ground.
914
00:37:37,005 --> 00:37:40,049
But now, we want to go higher
and get radar data
915
00:37:40,216 --> 00:37:43,344
where the drones fell out
of the sky earlier this week.
916
00:37:43,511 --> 00:37:47,932
Okay, uh, Cameron, we're gonna
do the next, uh, bottle drop.
917
00:37:48,099 --> 00:37:51,269
Go to 3,500 feet
and drop the bottles.
918
00:37:51,436 --> 00:37:55,815
Meanwhile, we're gonna have
the radar pointed at 3,200 feet.
919
00:37:55,982 --> 00:37:57,734
You got it. Uh, 3,500 feet.
920
00:37:57,901 --> 00:37:59,360
[Travis] Just stay clear
of the triangle
921
00:37:59,486 --> 00:38:00,987
until we give you the go-ahead.
922
00:38:01,154 --> 00:38:03,114
We're gonna launch
another rocket first.
923
00:38:03,281 --> 00:38:05,200
All right, guys. Here we go.
924
00:38:26,054 --> 00:38:29,224
Travis, we got the rocket
on the launchpad, uh,
925
00:38:29,390 --> 00:38:31,559
and are ready to go.
926
00:38:31,684 --> 00:38:33,228
Erik, are you ready?
927
00:38:33,394 --> 00:38:36,105
Standing by for launch
here at the command center.
928
00:38:36,272 --> 00:38:37,732
Copy that. All right, Thomas.
929
00:38:37,899 --> 00:38:41,361
Five, four, three,
930
00:38:41,486 --> 00:38:43,696
two, one, go.
931
00:38:45,782 --> 00:38:47,116
Wow.
932
00:38:47,283 --> 00:38:49,494
Dude, look at that thing.
Oh, my goodness,
933
00:38:49,661 --> 00:38:52,831
that's got to be
5,000 feet, it looks like.
934
00:38:52,997 --> 00:38:54,374
Good chute.
935
00:38:55,416 --> 00:38:57,043
Josh, are you good to go?
936
00:38:57,168 --> 00:38:59,254
-Yeah, we're scanning.
-Copy that.
937
00:38:59,420 --> 00:39:01,756
All right, Cameron,
you can go ahead and start
938
00:39:01,923 --> 00:39:04,175
-dropping the bottles.
-[Cameron] You got it.
939
00:39:04,342 --> 00:39:05,760
Uh, we'll start dropping
in five,
940
00:39:05,927 --> 00:39:07,470
four, three,
941
00:39:07,637 --> 00:39:09,013
two, one.
942
00:39:16,688 --> 00:39:20,191
Bottles are coming out, guys.
Bottles are coming out.
943
00:39:20,358 --> 00:39:22,277
[Karen] Oh, I see them.
I see them.
944
00:39:22,443 --> 00:39:24,153
I totally see them.
945
00:39:28,616 --> 00:39:30,243
Those look like
they're all falling
946
00:39:30,368 --> 00:39:31,744
-on the edge of the bubble.
-That one is hauling.
947
00:39:31,911 --> 00:39:34,330
[Kaleb] Look at that one.
948
00:39:34,497 --> 00:39:37,709
A bunch of those bottles
are falling to the south of us.
949
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:40,712
Are they falling
to the south of the triangle?
950
00:39:41,713 --> 00:39:43,089
[Kaleb] Yeah. 10-4.
951
00:39:45,300 --> 00:39:47,510
-Pete, you still dropping?
-[Pete] Last bottle.
952
00:39:48,761 --> 00:39:50,471
All out.
953
00:39:50,638 --> 00:39:52,432
[Cameron] All the bottles
have now left the helicopter.
954
00:39:52,599 --> 00:39:54,893
[Travis] After what
we saw yesterday,
955
00:39:55,059 --> 00:39:56,895
we were so pumped
to get a much better look
956
00:39:57,061 --> 00:39:59,188
in the bubble today
with these bottles.
957
00:39:59,355 --> 00:40:00,815
It's like there's
something in there
958
00:40:00,982 --> 00:40:03,026
that the ranch
doesn't want us to see.
959
00:40:03,192 --> 00:40:04,527
But what?
960
00:40:05,528 --> 00:40:06,905
Well, I think it's fascinating,
961
00:40:07,071 --> 00:40:09,198
we have yet to get
a single bottle
962
00:40:09,365 --> 00:40:11,034
that has come down
in the triangle.
963
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,286
The only ones
that we've even seen
964
00:40:13,453 --> 00:40:16,331
-landed up over there
near the bubble boundary. -Yeah.
965
00:40:16,497 --> 00:40:18,249
Different altitudes
and everything.
966
00:40:19,250 --> 00:40:21,044
-I'm-I'm a little surprised
at it. -[laughs]
967
00:40:21,210 --> 00:40:24,088
-I would have expected to get at
least one. -At least something.
968
00:40:24,255 --> 00:40:26,299
Kaleb, Thomas,
as far as I can tell,
969
00:40:26,507 --> 00:40:28,468
all the bottles are probably
on the ground by now.
970
00:40:29,510 --> 00:40:32,138
That's what Thomas and I were
just talking about is,
971
00:40:32,347 --> 00:40:35,767
they dropped about 200 bottles
out of that helicopter,
972
00:40:35,934 --> 00:40:39,562
and not one of them has landed
anywhere near the triangle.
973
00:40:39,729 --> 00:40:41,481
That's crazy.
974
00:40:41,648 --> 00:40:42,982
[Cameron] Travis,
this is Cameron.
975
00:40:43,149 --> 00:40:45,985
We're proceeding to head
back down to the ranch.
976
00:40:46,152 --> 00:40:47,862
That's awesome.
Thank you, Cameron.
977
00:40:50,448 --> 00:40:52,325
Everybody note that the bottles
978
00:40:52,492 --> 00:40:55,370
all have been released
and the helicopter's returning.
979
00:40:59,457 --> 00:41:01,376
[Cameron] Do you see that, Pete?
980
00:41:01,542 --> 00:41:03,711
[Pete] Something back there.
981
00:41:03,878 --> 00:41:05,964
I just saw something
by the mesa.
982
00:41:06,130 --> 00:41:07,757
-It's right there behind us.
-Where-where? Give us
983
00:41:07,924 --> 00:41:09,717
a direction, Cameron.
984
00:41:09,884 --> 00:41:11,511
[Cameron] We got it just
off to our left. There's a,
985
00:41:11,678 --> 00:41:13,513
a unidentified flying object
986
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,598
flying around
just above the treetops.
987
00:41:19,852 --> 00:41:22,271
Is that a drone?
988
00:41:22,438 --> 00:41:24,732
[Travis] No drone.
Negative on drone.
989
00:41:25,775 --> 00:41:27,568
Holy crap.
990
00:41:28,152 --> 00:41:28,236
I mean, this is nuts.
