Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,067 --> 00:00:04,200
Sightings of unidentified
flying objects have become
2
00:00:04,233 --> 00:00:06,133
so frequent in recent years that
3
00:00:06,167 --> 00:00:09,067
the U.S. Government can
no longer dismiss them.
4
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:13,700
Days ago, the Pentagon delivered
this, their highly anticipated
5
00:00:13,733 --> 00:00:16,833
declassified report
on UFO activity.
6
00:00:16,867 --> 00:00:19,367
Tonight, we will
take a deep dive
7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,267
into the report and examine what
It revealed about the state of
8
00:00:23,300 --> 00:00:25,300
our national and
global security.
9
00:00:25,333 --> 00:00:28,467
And perhaps life beyond
our solar system.
10
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:32,400
This is UFOs Declassified Live.
11
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,633
Welcome to UFOs
Declassified Live.
12
00:00:48,667 --> 00:00:49,933
I'm Josh Gates.
13
00:00:49,967 --> 00:00:53,433
Normally I'm traveling to far
flung locations around the world.
14
00:00:53,467 --> 00:00:57,133
Investigating mysteries on
my series Expedition Unknown.
15
00:00:57,167 --> 00:01:00,043
This evening they've let me take a
shower and clean up a little bit.
16
00:01:00,067 --> 00:01:03,133
I'm here in Las Vegas, along
with fellow adventurer,
17
00:01:03,167 --> 00:01:04,733
the host of Expedition X,
18
00:01:04,767 --> 00:01:05,900
Jessica Chobot.
19
00:01:05,933 --> 00:01:08,267
Hi, thanks for having
me, happy to be here.
20
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:12,043
I am looking forward to
declassifying some UFOs.
21
00:01:12,067 --> 00:01:13,967
It's going to be a big night.
22
00:01:14,067 --> 00:01:18,300
Together we will be tackling the
mystery of UFOs, this report,
23
00:01:18,333 --> 00:01:20,567
the science of these
aerial anomalies
24
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,133
and who or what
could be behind them.
25
00:01:23,167 --> 00:01:28,133
We'll do it by deciphering the fresh
off the press Pentagon UFO report
26
00:01:28,167 --> 00:01:30,900
and the jaw dropping
footage that prompted it.
27
00:01:30,933 --> 00:01:34,633
We have got a rotating panel of
experts to analyze everything tonight
28
00:01:34,667 --> 00:01:38,333
and we want to hear from
you, tweet using the hashtag,
29
00:01:38,367 --> 00:01:43,100
"UFOs Declassified Live," and be
sure to follow Discovery on Twitter
30
00:01:43,133 --> 00:01:45,567
to participate in
our live polls,
31
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,767
starting us off this evening, our
panel, we have the award winning
32
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,833
investigative
journalist, George Knapp
33
00:01:50,867 --> 00:01:52,600
and investigative filmmaker,
34
00:01:52,633 --> 00:01:56,567
the man who kicked off this whole thing
with some of the most compelling images
35
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,233
of UFOs caught on tape.
36
00:01:58,267 --> 00:02:01,133
Jeremy Corbell, good
to see both of you.
37
00:02:01,167 --> 00:02:03,043
- Nice to see ya, Josh.
- Yeah, thanks for being here.
38
00:02:03,067 --> 00:02:05,800
All right, this Pentagon
report was initially requested
39
00:02:05,833 --> 00:02:08,433
by the US Select
Committee on Intelligence
40
00:02:08,467 --> 00:02:13,133
in December of 2020, but its
roots go far deeper than that.
41
00:02:13,167 --> 00:02:14,167
Take a look.
42
00:02:15,333 --> 00:02:17,333
[narrator] UFO sightings
have been tracked by
43
00:02:17,367 --> 00:02:20,133
the United States
government since the 1940s.
44
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,100
As claims have often been
dismissed by government officials,
45
00:02:25,133 --> 00:02:28,043
the public has no idea of
the extent of the activity
46
00:02:28,067 --> 00:02:30,467
or what it could mean
to national security,
47
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:35,267
however, reports of what has been
described as aggressive UFO activity
48
00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:36,767
has spiked in recent years,
49
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,267
especially over
military institutions,
50
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:42,400
putting the United States
Department of Defense on edge.
51
00:02:42,433 --> 00:02:43,967
[pilot] 50 knots.
52
00:02:44,067 --> 00:02:45,267
Closing in.
53
00:02:45,300 --> 00:02:48,500
These increased public
sightings, along with UFO footage
54
00:02:48,533 --> 00:02:51,433
leaked by military
personnel has forced the DOD
55
00:02:51,467 --> 00:02:53,333
to change their long
standing position.
56
00:02:53,367 --> 00:02:56,133
It is history changing,
it is without a doubt,
57
00:02:56,167 --> 00:02:57,667
the story of the millennia.
58
00:02:57,700 --> 00:03:00,600
[narrator] And for the first time,
they have authenticated videos
59
00:03:00,633 --> 00:03:02,800
of unidentified flying objects,
60
00:03:02,833 --> 00:03:06,333
they know that these crafts
feature highly advanced technology,
61
00:03:06,367 --> 00:03:08,600
and are not part
of the US military.
62
00:03:08,633 --> 00:03:11,367
This caught the attention of the
Senate Intelligence Committee
63
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,967
led by Senator Marco Rubio,
64
00:03:13,067 --> 00:03:17,267
they demanded a full report on UFOs
for the sake of national security.
65
00:03:17,300 --> 00:03:19,700
Anything that enters an
airspace, that's not supposed
66
00:03:19,733 --> 00:03:21,167
to be there is a threat.
67
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,709
[narrator] Coming off a flurry of
intense interest from the media,
68
00:03:23,733 --> 00:03:26,767
the report was delivered
to Congress just days ago.
69
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,933
Tonight, we identify key findings
and unanswered questions.
70
00:03:30,967 --> 00:03:32,833
Who do these craft belong to?
71
00:03:32,867 --> 00:03:35,100
Adversaries in Russia or China.
72
00:03:35,133 --> 00:03:38,867
Is there a possibility they
originated beyond our solar system?
73
00:03:38,900 --> 00:03:41,933
Or is there a peaceful
and earthly explanation?
74
00:03:41,967 --> 00:03:44,633
And what does the evidence
revealed in the report mean
75
00:03:44,667 --> 00:03:46,833
for the United
States and the world?
76
00:03:47,733 --> 00:03:50,367
All right, well, let's
get right into it,
77
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:55,267
George, let's start with you, you have been
investigating UFOs from ground zero here
78
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,700
in the desert for
more than 30 years.
79
00:03:57,733 --> 00:04:00,233
First blush reaction, what
do you make of this report?
80
00:04:00,267 --> 00:04:03,167
It's massively important,
it's such a radical departure
81
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,367
from what we've been spoon
fed, the lies and obfuscation
82
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,900
we've been spoon fed by our military
and our government for decades
83
00:04:09,933 --> 00:04:12,567
behind the scenes since 1947.
84
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,933
Our military is taking
this very seriously,
85
00:04:14,967 --> 00:04:16,809
while telling the public,
there's nothing to it.
86
00:04:16,833 --> 00:04:18,400
Don't worry about it, move on.
87
00:04:18,433 --> 00:04:20,600
This report is only nine pages,
88
00:04:20,633 --> 00:04:22,333
it doesn't have
a lot of details,
89
00:04:22,367 --> 00:04:24,600
but it at least is a
new policy direction
90
00:04:24,633 --> 00:04:26,533
and it screams out
two things to me.
91
00:04:26,567 --> 00:04:29,633
One, is that UFOs are real
and they are physical objects,
92
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:31,167
two, they're not ours.
93
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,367
All right, Jeremy, you have had
your eyes on most of the videos
94
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,500
that we're talking about
tonight, long before
95
00:04:36,533 --> 00:04:39,300
they ever went to Congress,
your thoughts on all of this?
96
00:04:39,333 --> 00:04:41,467
I'm highly encouraged
by this report,
97
00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:44,800
mainly I'm encouraged by the
disappointment from the public,
98
00:04:44,833 --> 00:04:47,267
people wanted more
substance, more information,
99
00:04:47,300 --> 00:04:49,367
they don't have any videos
in the public report,
100
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,533
but what that shows me is that pop
culture is grabbing on to this.
101
00:04:52,567 --> 00:04:53,600
UFO mystery,
102
00:04:53,633 --> 00:04:56,100
and they're agreeing and
the military is saying,
103
00:04:56,133 --> 00:04:58,967
"We should study this
phenomenon scientifically,"
104
00:04:59,067 --> 00:05:02,233
that's what the report
says. This requires study.
105
00:05:02,267 --> 00:05:04,276
George, I think you probably
know better than anyone
106
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:07,700
as an investigative journalist how
secretive the government can be
107
00:05:07,733 --> 00:05:09,567
on the topic of UFOs.
108
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,043
Why the sudden rush
to transparency here?
109
00:05:12,067 --> 00:05:15,067
It's a combination of events
that this overnight success
110
00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:18,167
actually started about 26
years ago here in Las Vegas.
111
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,633
Robert Bigelow, businessman created
his own independent UFO think tank
112
00:05:22,667 --> 00:05:24,900
that got the attention
of Senator Harry Reid,
113
00:05:24,933 --> 00:05:28,133
who a decade later got
$22 million to devote
114
00:05:28,167 --> 00:05:32,633
to a secret program that studied
UFOs and related phenomena,
115
00:05:32,667 --> 00:05:35,333
that there was a corollary
program that existed
116
00:05:35,367 --> 00:05:37,400
in the Pentagon that
collected information
117
00:05:37,433 --> 00:05:39,709
including some of the videos
that we're going to see tonight,
118
00:05:39,733 --> 00:05:43,233
and it came spilling out in The
New York Times in December 2017
119
00:05:43,267 --> 00:05:45,367
and it's rolled like
a snowball ever since.
120
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,867
I want to talk about technology
a little bit here at the top,
121
00:05:47,900 --> 00:05:51,800
you know, in this report,
there are 143 unidentified,
122
00:05:51,833 --> 00:05:56,933
you know, instances, a lot of those
were made with real high tech stuff.
123
00:05:56,967 --> 00:06:00,043
FLIR is one of them, a
forward looking infrared,
124
00:06:00,067 --> 00:06:03,967
how does this kind of technology
differ from other sensor systems?
125
00:06:04,067 --> 00:06:06,267
Right, so we're living
in a different world now
126
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:09,233
where we have corroborative
video and thermal evidence,
127
00:06:09,267 --> 00:06:11,043
so it's not just a pilot saying,
128
00:06:11,067 --> 00:06:14,100
"Hey, I saw a UFO, it did
some amazing maneuvers."
129
00:06:14,133 --> 00:06:16,467
Now you have, as you said,
forward looking infrared
130
00:06:16,500 --> 00:06:18,376
which is a thermal camera,
you have night vision
131
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:19,667
which amplifies light.
132
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:24,667
We also have radar and also
just corroborative sensor data
133
00:06:24,700 --> 00:06:26,267
that is not released
to the public,
134
00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:28,700
they all tell the
same tale about UFOs.
135
00:06:28,733 --> 00:06:31,333
Okay, can I play devil's
advocate here for a moment?
136
00:06:31,367 --> 00:06:33,100
Uh, let me put on
my skeptic hat,
137
00:06:33,133 --> 00:06:36,267
we've got 143
unidentified objects
138
00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:37,967
or instances here
in this report,
139
00:06:38,067 --> 00:06:40,867
a skeptic might say, "Well,
they're unidentified,"
140
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:43,100
you know, despite all
this high tech equipment
141
00:06:43,133 --> 00:06:44,600
in the FLIR and the radar.
142
00:06:44,633 --> 00:06:46,043
We don't know what
these things are,
143
00:06:46,067 --> 00:06:47,467
"they still look
blurry and fuzzy."
144
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:48,733
What do we say to that?
145
00:06:48,767 --> 00:06:51,167
Well, more than 80, more
than half of the cases
146
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,200
in that report are confirmed
by more than one sensor,
147
00:06:54,233 --> 00:06:57,433
so they've got a pretty strong
indication that these are
148
00:06:57,467 --> 00:07:00,733
physical objects, they appear
to be manufactured objects,
149
00:07:00,767 --> 00:07:03,900
they have some kind of propulsion
system that we do not understand.
150
00:07:03,933 --> 00:07:07,600
And what about the possibility
that these objects are,
151
00:07:07,633 --> 00:07:09,067
you know, from our own planet?
152
00:07:09,100 --> 00:07:11,800
Could these belong to a foreign
government and adversary?
153
00:07:11,833 --> 00:07:15,043
That's also addressed in here and
they have to leave those options open
154
00:07:15,067 --> 00:07:18,067
in the report, they say, could
be foreign made technology,
155
00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:19,933
although we have no
evidence of that.
156
00:07:19,967 --> 00:07:21,800
Could it be secret
American technology?
157
00:07:21,833 --> 00:07:24,043
Yeah, but there's no
evidence of that either.
158
00:07:24,067 --> 00:07:25,309
But that's a big
question, right?
159
00:07:25,333 --> 00:07:28,167
Could this be a technology
that comes from us, you know,
160
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,367
the US military, the most
advanced military in the world,
161
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,667
do we have the technology
to create objects like this?
162
00:07:34,700 --> 00:07:35,767
We do not.
163
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,643
[chuckles] - Not that
anyone I've ever talked to,
164
00:07:37,667 --> 00:07:40,043
I've been pretty far,
far up the food chain
165
00:07:40,067 --> 00:07:42,100
and no one says that
this is our technology.
166
00:07:42,133 --> 00:07:44,167
Okay, a lot more on
this tonight obviously,
167
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,700
one of the simplest takeaways
from the report so far
168
00:07:46,733 --> 00:07:48,443
that you're going to be
hearing a lot about tonight
169
00:07:48,467 --> 00:07:52,800
is the term of UAP, which stands
for unidentified aerial phenomena,
170
00:07:52,833 --> 00:07:56,900
it is the official somewhat
fancier government name for UFOs.
171
00:07:56,933 --> 00:08:00,043
But until that catches on, you're
going to be hearing both terms tonight,
172
00:08:00,067 --> 00:08:02,076
and right now, we are going
to hear from our co-host
173
00:08:02,100 --> 00:08:06,400
Jessica Chobot who has an
exclusive live interview. Jessica.
174
00:08:06,433 --> 00:08:09,833
Thanks, Josh. We have got a lot
of questions to address tonight
175
00:08:09,867 --> 00:08:12,533
and our first guest is here
to help get some answers.
176
00:08:12,567 --> 00:08:15,633
Joining us now remotely is
counterterrorism subcommittee chairman,
177
00:08:15,667 --> 00:08:18,867
André Carson, who led the
classified briefing on UAPs
178
00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:21,233
for members of the House
Intelligence Committee.
179
00:08:21,267 --> 00:08:23,600
Good to see you,
Congressman Carson.
180
00:08:23,633 --> 00:08:25,167
What a pleasure, thank you.
181
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,633
Thanks for being on the
show, so I'll jump right in,
182
00:08:27,667 --> 00:08:31,833
what, why do you feel that the report
was important enough to push through?
183
00:08:34,067 --> 00:08:36,633
Well, I think for me, you know,
184
00:08:36,667 --> 00:08:39,467
that this is a national
security priority.
185
00:08:39,500 --> 00:08:43,333
If there is technology out
there that we can't explain
186
00:08:43,367 --> 00:08:47,733
that has huge implications for the safety
and security of the American people,
187
00:08:47,767 --> 00:08:49,467
you know, for many years,
188
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:52,043
I've been urging our
intelligence community
189
00:08:52,067 --> 00:08:54,700
to take UAPs,
commonly known as UFOs
190
00:08:54,733 --> 00:08:56,433
more seriously for
this very reason,
191
00:08:56,467 --> 00:08:58,467
so, I'm very pleased
that we're moving in
192
00:08:58,500 --> 00:08:59,867
the right direction
on that goal.
193
00:08:59,900 --> 00:09:02,767
Awesome. So were you pleased
with the results of the report?
194
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,409
I mean, you mentioned you
were moving towards the goal,
195
00:09:04,433 --> 00:09:07,043
but are you pleased
with the report itself?
196
00:09:07,067 --> 00:09:12,967
Well, I was pleased that the DNI
issued a public report on this issue,
197
00:09:13,067 --> 00:09:16,367
obviously, the content
of the report shows
198
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,633
that we need to do a lot more
research and investigating.
199
00:09:19,667 --> 00:09:23,967
Even though this report didn't
give us all of the answers.
200
00:09:24,067 --> 00:09:27,800
It's very significant because
it represents a big shift
201
00:09:27,833 --> 00:09:31,333
in the way our intelligence
community handles information.
202
00:09:31,367 --> 00:09:34,867
So, what part of the report
stands out the most to you?
203
00:09:37,133 --> 00:09:41,133
You know, I think the size
and scale of the reporting
204
00:09:41,167 --> 00:09:43,867
on UAPs is the most significant.
205
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:48,100
- Mm-hmm.
- The DNI report clearly outlines an initial baseline
206
00:09:48,133 --> 00:09:50,400
for the sheer number
of UAP events.
207
00:09:50,433 --> 00:09:54,600
There were 144
reports of UAP events
208
00:09:54,633 --> 00:09:56,167
from government sources
209
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,200
and 80 of those reports
involve multiple sensors
210
00:10:00,233 --> 00:10:03,600
that detect the UAP, so that's
a fairly sizable number.
211
00:10:03,633 --> 00:10:06,867
Um, you know, it's
not a one off.
212
00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:09,567
So, once, you know,
it's not a, it's not
213
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,367
a once in a blue
moon phenomenon.
214
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,700
Something is going on here
215
00:10:13,733 --> 00:10:15,767
and we all know
how to explain it.
216
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,767
So with that being said, then what do
you personally believe the UAPs are?
217
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:23,567
Well, I'll say this,
218
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:28,200
I, I think we have a lot
more investigating to do
219
00:10:28,233 --> 00:10:31,367
before I can answer
that confidently.
220
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,267
Mmm-hmm. But I
think a lot of us,
221
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:39,833
a lot of folks like me, um,
would like to say that we
222
00:10:39,867 --> 00:10:41,867
we suspect if there's
extraterrestrial life,
223
00:10:41,900 --> 00:10:45,100
but, you know, the intelligence
community says we can't completely rule
224
00:10:45,133 --> 00:10:47,600
that out, but it's clear,
225
00:10:47,633 --> 00:10:49,533
we have to do a
lot more digging.
226
00:10:49,567 --> 00:10:52,067
All of the stakeholders
have to come together
227
00:10:52,100 --> 00:10:55,433
and put aside any preconceived
notions about UAPs
228
00:10:55,467 --> 00:10:59,000
and really engage in a
very good faith effort
229
00:10:59,033 --> 00:11:01,633
to study the potential
security threat, obviously,
230
00:11:01,667 --> 00:11:05,967
so we need teams of experts
across the national security space
231
00:11:06,067 --> 00:11:07,833
and across the intelligence
community as well
232
00:11:07,867 --> 00:11:10,867
as civilian reports really
studying this issue.
233
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:14,100
Taking input, and I think
making very sound conclusions
234
00:11:14,133 --> 00:11:17,700
about what this could be, whether it's
a threat to our national security.
235
00:11:17,733 --> 00:11:20,900
And where I believe I
can be the most helpful
236
00:11:20,933 --> 00:11:25,133
is by encouraging more research and
informing the public as much as we can
237
00:11:25,167 --> 00:11:26,500
about these findings.
238
00:11:26,533 --> 00:11:27,843
Well, it's been
great talking to you.
239
00:11:27,867 --> 00:11:30,100
Thank you so much
for your time, sir.
240
00:11:30,133 --> 00:11:32,767
- What an honor. Thank you.
- Thank you. Josh.
241
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,133
Thanks, Jessica. Well, we
have a packed show tonight,
242
00:11:36,167 --> 00:11:39,267
including an interview with
former White House Chief of Staff,
243
00:11:39,300 --> 00:11:43,167
John Podesta and stunning
just released video
244
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,567
from the deck of the
aircraft carrier USS Omaha,
245
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,367
It is just one piece of
the incredible footage
246
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,067
that we're going to
be reviewing tonight
247
00:11:51,100 --> 00:11:55,067
as we unravel the identity
of these unidentified objects
248
00:11:55,100 --> 00:11:58,043
and during the break,
hit us up on Twitter
249
00:11:58,067 --> 00:12:01,533
using the hashtag UFOs
Declassified Live,
250
00:12:01,567 --> 00:12:04,333
send in your questions,
your comments, your photos,
251
00:12:04,367 --> 00:12:07,043
heck, send in your UFO
footage if you've got it.
252
00:12:07,067 --> 00:12:10,333
It's a big night and we are just
getting started, so stay tuned.
253
00:12:36,533 --> 00:12:40,067
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified Live,
254
00:12:40,100 --> 00:12:41,333
I'm Josh Gates.
255
00:12:41,367 --> 00:12:44,367
In addition to being a former
White House Chief of Staff,
256
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,133
John Podesta has been
a longtime believer
257
00:12:47,167 --> 00:12:50,067
in the possibility of
extraterrestrial life,
258
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:53,367
to discuss the latest revelations
in the Pentagon UFO report
259
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:54,600
is John Podesta.
260
00:12:54,633 --> 00:12:56,100
Thanks for joining us, sir.
261
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,600
Good to be with you, Josh.
262
00:12:58,633 --> 00:13:01,667
Well, look I know that
you have been calling
263
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:04,500
for the release of this kind
of information for a long time,
264
00:13:04,533 --> 00:13:06,900
so you must be relieved that
this report has come out,
265
00:13:06,933 --> 00:13:09,200
having read it,
what's your takeaway?
266
00:13:10,700 --> 00:13:12,043
Well, I welcomed it.
267
00:13:12,067 --> 00:13:16,667
Uh, it answered a lot of, it
gave us a lot of information,
268
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:19,467
but it opened up more
questions than it answered.
269
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:22,633
Right. And I know you
have said for a long time
270
00:13:22,667 --> 00:13:25,833
that that really all of this
information should be declassified,
271
00:13:25,867 --> 00:13:28,100
there is a classified
version of this report,
272
00:13:28,133 --> 00:13:31,733
there's also video, we know that
the Pentagon has not released.
273
00:13:31,767 --> 00:13:34,800
Do you believe still that
all of that should come out?
274
00:13:34,833 --> 00:13:38,267
Yes, and I think the American
people would welcome that.
275
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:41,400
Uh, we know that the
United States government
276
00:13:41,433 --> 00:13:44,567
has had 144 encounters
277
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:49,567
with unidentified aerial
phenomenon since 2004,
278
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,467
and they can only
explain one of them.
279
00:13:51,500 --> 00:13:53,933
So, let the public
look at this data,
280
00:13:53,967 --> 00:13:57,600
look at the video, let
scientists chew on it
281
00:13:57,633 --> 00:13:59,833
and I think we'll
learn a lot more about
282
00:13:59,867 --> 00:14:04,433
what the, what these UAP
phenomena really is all about.
283
00:14:04,467 --> 00:14:07,567
You famously tweeted in
2014 that you felt that one
284
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,400
of your greatest failures
was not securing the release
285
00:14:10,433 --> 00:14:13,043
of this information during
the Obama administration,
286
00:14:13,067 --> 00:14:14,667
why do you think
it's so important
287
00:14:14,700 --> 00:14:17,133
that the public
get a look at this?
288
00:14:17,167 --> 00:14:22,043
I think the public really
is very intrigued by
289
00:14:22,067 --> 00:14:26,633
whether there is life
and whether these UAPs
290
00:14:26,667 --> 00:14:31,567
are examples of that and there's
just tremendous popular interest.
291
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,667
Uh, and I think that the,
the government really has
292
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:37,267
an obligation not to hide it,
293
00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:41,133
uh, not to, not to pretend
that it doesn't exist,
294
00:14:41,167 --> 00:14:46,043
not to be embarrassed by it, but just put
the information out, let people see it,
295
00:14:46,067 --> 00:14:48,167
understand it, debate it.
296
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,500
And considering we have now
in this report, 143 examples
297
00:14:52,533 --> 00:14:55,467
of what seemed to be
technologically advanced
298
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:57,867
something that
has been detected.
299
00:14:57,900 --> 00:15:00,533
Does this represent an
intelligence failure
300
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:03,567
on some level that we don't
know what these objects are?
301
00:15:04,867 --> 00:15:06,667
Well, look, I think
for a long time,
302
00:15:06,700 --> 00:15:10,833
there was just a stigma involved
in even discussing this phenomena.
303
00:15:10,867 --> 00:15:13,067
- Right.
- And so I think people look the other way.
304
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:18,633
And I'm glad now as a result of
efforts, really heroic efforts,
305
00:15:18,667 --> 00:15:21,933
particularly by former
Democratic Senator Harry Reid
306
00:15:21,967 --> 00:15:24,167
to push this out
into the public.
307
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,433
The Pentagon's taking it seriously,
they've created a UAP Task Force,
308
00:15:28,467 --> 00:15:31,067
the Navy and Air Force
both have programs,
309
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:34,433
but again, I'd like to see
this more on the civilian side,
310
00:15:34,467 --> 00:15:41,100
led by civilian scientists, so that we
don't have this cover of classification,
311
00:15:41,133 --> 00:15:44,433
uh, hiding a lot of information
from the American public.
312
00:15:44,467 --> 00:15:47,143
Well, I'm sure there is much more
information to come on this front.
313
00:15:47,167 --> 00:15:50,467
Thank you so much for your time
today. I really appreciate it, sir.
314
00:15:50,500 --> 00:15:52,200
Thanks for having me on.
315
00:15:52,233 --> 00:15:56,933
You know this latest round of UAP
sightings generates a lot of questions,
316
00:15:56,967 --> 00:16:00,067
none more important
than friend or foe,
317
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:04,800
are these UAPs friendly or could
they be set on doing us harm?
318
00:16:04,833 --> 00:16:07,833
And regardless of whether
they're an earthly adversary
319
00:16:07,867 --> 00:16:11,300
or extra-terrestrial, how
prepared is our military?
320
00:16:12,467 --> 00:16:14,200
[pilot] Oh, my gosh, dude.
321
00:16:14,233 --> 00:16:16,767
[Jim] Something is out there
and we don't know what it is,
322
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,433
people start seeing
unidentified flying objects
323
00:16:20,467 --> 00:16:22,733
and they're coming
over a military bases,
324
00:16:22,767 --> 00:16:24,633
and we don't know
what to do about it.
325
00:16:24,667 --> 00:16:29,600
I wonder if we are not in
some ways less prepared
326
00:16:29,633 --> 00:16:32,200
for this problem than
we were 70 years ago,
327
00:16:32,233 --> 00:16:36,567
the facts are that we have
unexplained aerial phenomena
328
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,600
that are penetrating
our airspace,
329
00:16:38,633 --> 00:16:40,233
we don't know what they are.
330
00:16:40,267 --> 00:16:42,433
We don't understand
their capabilities,
331
00:16:42,467 --> 00:16:45,043
they seem to defy the laws
of physics as we know it.
332
00:16:45,067 --> 00:16:46,133
[man] Lift off.
333
00:16:46,167 --> 00:16:50,833
The United States Navy has
admitted that there are
334
00:16:50,867 --> 00:16:53,267
objects which they do
not know what they are.
335
00:16:53,300 --> 00:16:56,800
So whether or not there's enough
data in all of these videos
336
00:16:56,833 --> 00:16:58,633
is not the key point.
337
00:16:58,667 --> 00:17:01,833
The key point is
the US Navy admits
338
00:17:01,867 --> 00:17:04,533
that they can't
identify the objects.
339
00:17:08,767 --> 00:17:12,800
[Jim] It is definitely
displaying technology in order
340
00:17:12,833 --> 00:17:16,167
of technology well, well
beyond we have here.
341
00:17:18,567 --> 00:17:20,533
Uh, how do we take that?
342
00:17:20,567 --> 00:17:23,700
Uh, I don't know, I mean,
do we see that as a threat?
343
00:17:23,733 --> 00:17:25,900
Are we ready, are the
world governments ready?
344
00:17:25,933 --> 00:17:28,567
Is the United States ready to
defend itself against this threat.
345
00:17:29,700 --> 00:17:31,367
We've never seen
anything like it.
346
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,233
The amount of G
forces they contain,
347
00:17:33,267 --> 00:17:34,867
we don't know whether
they're piloted
348
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:37,300
or remotely controlled
or their drones.
349
00:17:37,333 --> 00:17:39,267
- [pilot] What was... Splash.
- Splash.
350
00:17:39,300 --> 00:17:42,043
They seem to be
especially concentrated,
351
00:17:42,067 --> 00:17:44,533
where there are
nuclear facilities
352
00:17:44,567 --> 00:17:47,533
there are nuclear tests,
or there are nuclear
353
00:17:47,567 --> 00:17:50,067
propulsion systems
in the military.
354
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,967
It's been reported these things
accelerate through the sound barrier,
355
00:17:56,067 --> 00:17:58,233
but without a sonic boom.
356
00:17:58,267 --> 00:18:02,467
This implies almost
a new physics
357
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:05,700
in terms of defining a threat.
358
00:18:05,733 --> 00:18:09,733
The military sometimes
use the equation
359
00:18:09,767 --> 00:18:13,700
capability times
intent equals threat.
360
00:18:13,733 --> 00:18:16,167
We don't have one of the values,
361
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,833
the capability looks
really, really impressive.
362
00:18:20,867 --> 00:18:24,067
The intent remains
completely unknown.
363
00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:30,833
Well, joining veteran
investigative reporter George Knapp
364
00:18:30,867 --> 00:18:34,100
and documentarian and
UFO expert Jeremy Corbell
365
00:18:34,133 --> 00:18:35,433
on the panel,
366
00:18:35,467 --> 00:18:38,133
our former member of the British
Ministry of Defense Nick Pope
367
00:18:38,167 --> 00:18:41,043
and former CIA
officer Jim Semivan.
368
00:18:41,067 --> 00:18:42,409
Welcome to you both.
Thanks for being here.
369
00:18:42,433 --> 00:18:44,743
- You're welcome, Josh, thanks for having us here.
- Absolutely, I'm,
370
00:18:44,767 --> 00:18:47,233
I'm intimidated and
terrified of you both.
371
00:18:47,267 --> 00:18:49,567
All right, let's, let's get
into some questions here,
372
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,300
the report found that there was
clustering around military assets.
373
00:18:53,333 --> 00:18:57,733
So, Jim, do you see this as intentional
targeting of our ships and facilities?
374
00:18:57,767 --> 00:18:59,467
Oh, yes, absolutely.
375
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:02,100
You know, we had an
incident in 2019,
376
00:19:02,133 --> 00:19:06,133
where they were close to
what 50 to 100 UAP swarming
377
00:19:06,167 --> 00:19:09,233
and nine vessel, I mean,
nine vessel warships
378
00:19:09,267 --> 00:19:11,300
uh, you know, were they
interested in what?
379
00:19:11,333 --> 00:19:15,300
Surveillance or were they, be
interested in being threatening,
380
00:19:15,333 --> 00:19:16,609
uh, we don't know that for sure.
381
00:19:16,633 --> 00:19:18,943
[Josh] I've also heard reports
about this kind of clustering
382
00:19:18,967 --> 00:19:21,043
happening around nuclear
sites is that true?
383
00:19:21,067 --> 00:19:23,800
Absolutely and we have
them around nuclear sites,
384
00:19:23,833 --> 00:19:27,467
nuclear missile sites,
nuclear testing facilities,
385
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:30,867
and we also have them around our
intercontinental ballistic missile sites.
386
00:19:30,900 --> 00:19:34,433
And, you know, you look at this and you
say, well, you know, what is this about?
387
00:19:34,467 --> 00:19:36,467
I mean all this has
been well documented,
388
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:41,100
but they appear to be strongly interested
in our nuclear technology, that's for sure.
389
00:19:41,133 --> 00:19:42,500
Sort of terrifying to hear.
390
00:19:42,533 --> 00:19:43,743
- It is terrifying, yeah.
- Uh, Nick,
391
00:19:43,767 --> 00:19:45,643
you brought up something really
interesting in the package
392
00:19:45,667 --> 00:19:46,733
we just watched.
393
00:19:46,767 --> 00:19:48,043
I wanna make sure I get
this right, you brought up
394
00:19:48,067 --> 00:19:51,933
the equation capability
times intent equals threat.
395
00:19:51,967 --> 00:19:54,076
So, you know, one of the
alarming details in this report
396
00:19:54,100 --> 00:19:58,100
is that if the data is accurate, the
capabilities of these, of these objects
397
00:19:58,133 --> 00:20:00,367
seems kind of off the charts.
398
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,333
Can we really know their intent?
399
00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:03,700
No, we can't.
400
00:20:03,733 --> 00:20:05,367
If this was Russia or China,
401
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,000
intelligence officers
would have a fair idea,
402
00:20:08,033 --> 00:20:11,267
but if it's something unknown,
possibly extraterrestrial.
403
00:20:11,300 --> 00:20:12,300
We have no idea.
404
00:20:12,333 --> 00:20:14,900
Therefore, we can't
define the threat
405
00:20:14,933 --> 00:20:17,033
and if you can't
define or evaluate it,
406
00:20:17,067 --> 00:20:19,533
hope for the best,
prepare for the worst.
407
00:20:19,567 --> 00:20:21,933
So, okay, well, let's
say that they do have
408
00:20:21,967 --> 00:20:25,000
these tremendous capabilities and
that we don't know what they are,
409
00:20:25,033 --> 00:20:26,733
I mean, if that's,
if that's the case,
410
00:20:26,767 --> 00:20:29,700
shouldn't President Biden be
hiding in a bunker somewhere, Jim?
411
00:20:29,733 --> 00:20:31,600
I mean, I'm getting
nervous here.
412
00:20:31,633 --> 00:20:33,433
Well, not necessarily,
I mean, you know,
413
00:20:33,467 --> 00:20:36,433
in 1940, '47, the Air Force
came out and they said,
414
00:20:36,467 --> 00:20:39,300
"We don't deem UAPs a threat."
415
00:20:39,333 --> 00:20:41,600
And there's no evidence
to we have right now
416
00:20:41,633 --> 00:20:43,309
that they're an existential
threat to this country
417
00:20:43,333 --> 00:20:44,800
or and to anybody else.
418
00:20:44,833 --> 00:20:48,267
So, at the moment, they seem
to pose more of a hazard
419
00:20:48,300 --> 00:20:52,367
to aviation than they do a threat
to the military or to the country.
420
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,800
Let's talk about technology
here, Jim, do you,
421
00:20:54,833 --> 00:20:58,133
do you see these UAPs
as being more advanced
422
00:20:58,167 --> 00:21:01,043
than our top of the
line stealth arsenal?
423
00:21:01,067 --> 00:21:04,043
Oh, I think absolutely,
absolutely, you know,
424
00:21:04,067 --> 00:21:06,333
stealth technology is
all about low visibility,
425
00:21:06,367 --> 00:21:07,833
it's like not being seen.
426
00:21:07,867 --> 00:21:10,667
Well, these things
are UAPs on steroids.
427
00:21:10,700 --> 00:21:14,467
I mean, these are, I'm sorry stealth
fighters aircraft on steroids.
428
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:17,600
They seem to appear and
disappear instantaneously.
429
00:21:17,633 --> 00:21:19,467
So, you have to ask
yourself, I mean,
430
00:21:19,500 --> 00:21:23,533
are they using a cloaking device,
what are they doing to get this?
431
00:21:23,567 --> 00:21:27,200
I've even read, Nick, that
some people have theorized that
432
00:21:27,233 --> 00:21:30,600
our own stealth technology
is somehow based off
433
00:21:30,633 --> 00:21:33,467
of these UAPs, that feels
a little farfetched to me,
434
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:34,700
what do you make of that?
435
00:21:34,733 --> 00:21:38,967
Well, I don't know if we got
stealth technology from UFOs,
436
00:21:39,067 --> 00:21:42,600
but UFOs seem to be using it and
one of the really interesting things
437
00:21:42,633 --> 00:21:46,600
in the report to Congress is the
phrase, "signature management."
438
00:21:46,633 --> 00:21:51,267
These objects are taking
active measures to suppress
439
00:21:51,300 --> 00:21:54,567
their radar signature making it
more difficult for us to track them,
440
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,867
there's an intelligence
at play here.
441
00:21:56,900 --> 00:21:59,100
All of this is so fascinating.
442
00:21:59,133 --> 00:22:01,567
Uh, I was just informed that
we are trending on Twitter
443
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,433
which I think speaks
to the fascination
444
00:22:03,467 --> 00:22:05,467
that people have
with this topic,
445
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:08,400
I want to check in with
my co-host Jessica Chobot,
446
00:22:08,433 --> 00:22:10,367
she is an investigator
in her own right.
447
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,433
Tonight, she is digging in with a very
special guest to get some answers. Jess.
448
00:22:15,467 --> 00:22:19,167
Thank you, Josh, with me right
now is former F-16 fighter pilot,
449
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:24,043
Tracy Latourette, to give us her insight
on a pilot's eye view of these phenomena.
450
00:22:24,067 --> 00:22:27,500
So, Tracy, a common theme
when discussing these UAPs
451
00:22:27,533 --> 00:22:30,733
has been that they are more
advanced than our military's finest.
452
00:22:30,767 --> 00:22:33,100
Our US stealth aircraft
is highly regarded though
453
00:22:33,133 --> 00:22:36,867
and our foreign adversaries also
have stealth technology as well,
454
00:22:36,900 --> 00:22:40,633
So can you please give us the rundown
on these different types of craft?
455
00:22:40,667 --> 00:22:45,900
You bet, Jess, so the term stealth
refers to an aircraft's ability
456
00:22:45,933 --> 00:22:47,933
to avoid detection by radar,
457
00:22:47,967 --> 00:22:50,133
we typically hear stealth
and think of, well,
458
00:22:50,167 --> 00:22:55,167
most often the B-2 Spirit
or the F-117 Nighthawk,
459
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,133
this is the bomber,
this is our fighter.
460
00:22:57,167 --> 00:22:59,833
The great thing is we've been
able to take lessons we've learned
461
00:22:59,867 --> 00:23:02,833
from the employment of these
two aircraft and design
462
00:23:02,867 --> 00:23:06,043
the latest fifth generation
stealth technology
463
00:23:06,067 --> 00:23:07,733
which is at the end down there,
464
00:23:07,767 --> 00:23:10,167
the F-22 Raptor and not shown
465
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,133
our F-35 Lightning II.
466
00:23:12,167 --> 00:23:13,600
So, that's our
latest and greatest,
467
00:23:13,633 --> 00:23:14,933
but we're not alone.
468
00:23:14,967 --> 00:23:16,776
- Mm-hmm.
- We're not the only countries that have these,
469
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,233
the Chinese have
the Chengdu J-20,
470
00:23:19,267 --> 00:23:21,567
The Russians have the SU-57,
471
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,400
so it's important that we continue
to stay ahead of the competition,
472
00:23:25,433 --> 00:23:27,133
we're always looking
for emerging threats.
473
00:23:27,167 --> 00:23:31,043
Interesting, so what puts the stealth
heads and shoulders above the rest?
474
00:23:31,067 --> 00:23:33,027
Well, I think that's really
one of the best things
475
00:23:33,067 --> 00:23:38,043
about our nation, is not only are
we, do we have these great aircraft
476
00:23:38,067 --> 00:23:40,043
that have proven time and again
477
00:23:40,067 --> 00:23:41,700
that they're
incredibly effective.
478
00:23:41,733 --> 00:23:43,967
But, we never give
up, we never rest,
479
00:23:44,067 --> 00:23:45,667
we're always pushing
the envelope.
480
00:23:45,700 --> 00:23:50,500
In fact, this technologies, or, I'm
sorry, that F-22 and 35 technology
481
00:23:50,533 --> 00:23:51,867
- is 20 years old.
- Yeah.
482
00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:56,767
So I would love to know what is
classified, -What's going on?
483
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,767
- What's behind the curtain.
- [laughs]
484
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,567
- Something's happening.
- Oh, for sure.
485
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,043
Well, can any of these aircraft
actually move like the UAPs
486
00:24:04,067 --> 00:24:06,043
we've been capturing and seeing?
487
00:24:06,067 --> 00:24:08,700
I haven't seen any of them
move exactly like that,
488
00:24:08,733 --> 00:24:11,133
but we do have some that
have some thrust vectoring
489
00:24:11,167 --> 00:24:13,900
that does allow them to do
some interesting maneuvers,
490
00:24:13,933 --> 00:24:16,867
but it's still very different than,
than what we're seeing tonight.
491
00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:20,333
Interesting, all right, well, thank you
for your insight, Tracy. Josh, back to you.
492
00:24:20,367 --> 00:24:22,067
Thank you, Jessica and Tracy.
493
00:24:22,100 --> 00:24:25,867
Next up, we have got one of
the most incredible videos
494
00:24:25,900 --> 00:24:29,233
responsible for the compilation
of the Pentagon report,
495
00:24:29,267 --> 00:24:31,233
it is called the Tic Tac video,
496
00:24:31,267 --> 00:24:33,833
and you will not believe
how this thing moves.
497
00:24:33,867 --> 00:24:37,933
Plus, we've got that amazing, newly
released footage from the deck
498
00:24:37,967 --> 00:24:39,267
of the USS Omaha,
499
00:24:39,300 --> 00:24:41,043
when our broadcast continues
500
00:24:41,067 --> 00:24:46,200
and tweet us using the hashtag
UFOs Declassified Live on Twitter
501
00:24:46,233 --> 00:24:48,600
and share your close
encounter stories.
502
00:24:48,633 --> 00:24:49,867
We'll be right back.
503
00:25:11,167 --> 00:25:14,333
[Josh] Welcome back to
UFOs Declassified Live,
504
00:25:14,367 --> 00:25:19,043
well, based on our poll,
it looks like 66.7% of you
505
00:25:19,067 --> 00:25:21,900
do not believe there is
any evidence of hostility
506
00:25:21,933 --> 00:25:24,833
with recent UFO sightings.
507
00:25:24,867 --> 00:25:28,967
Peace loving aliens. The other
33% of you, Mars Attacks.
508
00:25:29,067 --> 00:25:32,633
Welcome back to the show, uh, I am
really excited that you're all here,
509
00:25:32,667 --> 00:25:38,533
we're having an amazing time going through
the recently submitted to the public,
510
00:25:38,567 --> 00:25:40,500
Pentagon UFO report.
511
00:25:40,533 --> 00:25:44,300
Uh, joining us now, we have a very
special guest here joining our panel,
512
00:25:44,333 --> 00:25:47,767
we have got our resident F-16
fighter pilot Tracy Latourrette,
513
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,233
welcome, thank you
for joining us.
514
00:25:49,267 --> 00:25:50,667
- Thanks for having me.
- Of course.
515
00:25:50,700 --> 00:25:54,300
So, as we just saw, the report
that was just delivered to Congress
516
00:25:54,333 --> 00:25:57,467
leans heavily on the accounts
of military aviators.
517
00:25:57,500 --> 00:25:58,767
Of course, that makes sense.
518
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,100
They are equipped with the best
surveillance technology around
519
00:26:02,133 --> 00:26:05,133
and footage captured
using this high end gear
520
00:26:05,167 --> 00:26:06,933
is difficult to dispute.
521
00:26:06,967 --> 00:26:09,900
Get ready for this, the following
was captured using FLIR,
522
00:26:09,933 --> 00:26:12,867
forward looking infrared in 2004
523
00:26:12,900 --> 00:26:16,100
on the USS Nimitz in
San Diego, check it out.
524
00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:20,600
All right, Jeremy, walk us through
what we are looking at here.
525
00:26:20,633 --> 00:26:23,733
[Jeremy] Right, so, this is FLIR
footage which is a thermal footage
526
00:26:23,767 --> 00:26:25,367
who was Commander Chad Underwood
527
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,043
who was tasked out towards
the tic tac object,
528
00:26:28,067 --> 00:26:30,600
remember there were a lot
of Tic Tacs dropping in
529
00:26:30,633 --> 00:26:32,300
from 80,000 feet
down to sea level
530
00:26:32,333 --> 00:26:34,500
in less than a
second and a half,
531
00:26:34,533 --> 00:26:37,167
incredible speeds, but
they caught one of them,
532
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,800
and this is footage of that, and
you'll see at towards the end
533
00:26:39,833 --> 00:26:42,700
of the footage, it does
shoot off to the left end
534
00:26:42,733 --> 00:26:45,867
that the tracking pot, it's
outside of the tolerance of it,
535
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:47,633
so it can't hold it at the end.
536
00:26:47,667 --> 00:26:50,900
Incredible speeds are demonstrated
at the end of this video.
537
00:26:50,933 --> 00:26:52,867
[Josh] Absolutely,
remarkable stuff,
538
00:26:52,900 --> 00:26:55,867
so I have to take this over
to Tracy at this point,
539
00:26:55,900 --> 00:26:59,109
you're the only one here at this table who
really knows what it's like to fly around
540
00:26:59,133 --> 00:27:02,300
in a fighter jet, let's say
you see one of these things,
541
00:27:02,333 --> 00:27:05,043
what do you do? What's
your, what's your response?
542
00:27:05,067 --> 00:27:06,800
Well, what you do,
it depends, right?
543
00:27:06,833 --> 00:27:07,933
That's always the answer.
544
00:27:07,967 --> 00:27:10,833
But the first thing is
always going to be inserting
545
00:27:10,867 --> 00:27:14,667
just a split second pause that
allows me that critical moment,
546
00:27:14,700 --> 00:27:17,733
to become aware of
the critical details
547
00:27:17,767 --> 00:27:19,733
in the surroundings,
assess the situation
548
00:27:19,767 --> 00:27:21,833
and then act in accordance
with my objective.
549
00:27:21,867 --> 00:27:25,043
So, in this case, that means
that I want to identify
550
00:27:25,067 --> 00:27:28,333
whether or not this
is a friendly target
551
00:27:28,367 --> 00:27:31,043
or a friendly or if
it's something else,
552
00:27:31,067 --> 00:27:33,800
and whether or not I'm
able to identify that,
553
00:27:33,833 --> 00:27:34,943
the next thing is going to be,
554
00:27:34,967 --> 00:27:37,067
"Do I see any kind
of hostile intent?"
555
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:40,567
- And luckily, I don't see any here so...
- All right, well, that's good.
556
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,800
As a pilot. Have you ever
seen anything like this?
557
00:27:43,833 --> 00:27:46,567
I have never seen anything like
this, so it's pretty exciting.
558
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,333
Okay. Wow. All right, George,
559
00:27:48,367 --> 00:27:49,843
I want to turn to you
for a moment here.
560
00:27:49,867 --> 00:27:54,233
I've heard people refer to a
kind of checklist of authenticity
561
00:27:54,267 --> 00:27:57,500
when it comes to UFOs, the
four main criteria being
562
00:27:57,533 --> 00:28:01,600
footage, eye witnesses,
radar, and propulsion.
563
00:28:01,633 --> 00:28:04,233
For you, how many boxes
does this footage check?
564
00:28:04,267 --> 00:28:06,133
All of them. I mean,
we've seen the footage.
565
00:28:06,167 --> 00:28:07,743
The whole world has
seen that footage is,
566
00:28:07,767 --> 00:28:09,043
and is impressed by it.
567
00:28:09,067 --> 00:28:11,600
The witnesses are the
most trustworthy people,
568
00:28:11,633 --> 00:28:15,833
they're naval aviators, best
fighter pilots in the world,
569
00:28:15,867 --> 00:28:18,700
all credible people with
top security clearances,
570
00:28:18,733 --> 00:28:20,767
the propulsion system
is the question mark.
571
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,567
All we know that it
is that it's not ours.
572
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,133
Jim, any chance that what
we're seeing in this video
573
00:28:26,167 --> 00:28:28,633
is a top secret US
military project?
574
00:28:28,667 --> 00:28:30,167
Yeah, it's highly unlikely,
575
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,400
it would be absolute folly
for one branch of the military
576
00:28:33,433 --> 00:28:39,267
to introduce a new technology
into a active military exercise,
577
00:28:39,300 --> 00:28:41,267
in this particular
case, a navy exercise,
578
00:28:41,300 --> 00:28:45,900
it'd be too much chance for
error and mistakes to be made
579
00:28:45,933 --> 00:28:49,233
and the Navy hierarchy in this
case would never have permitted it.
580
00:28:49,267 --> 00:28:52,433
Tracy, just to give
me some sense of this,
581
00:28:52,467 --> 00:28:55,767
how advanced would
this object have to be
582
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,400
to be up there
competing with our own,
583
00:28:58,433 --> 00:29:00,900
you know, stealth
aircraft and jet fighters,
584
00:29:00,933 --> 00:29:02,173
I mean, compare the two for me.
585
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,567
Well, I think, to be
able to move as abruptly
586
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,533
and as fast as this object does,
587
00:29:08,567 --> 00:29:10,500
it has to be significantly
more advanced
588
00:29:10,533 --> 00:29:12,233
than our fifth
generation technology,
589
00:29:12,267 --> 00:29:13,467
but as I mentioned before,
590
00:29:13,500 --> 00:29:15,500
that's been around for 20 years,
591
00:29:15,533 --> 00:29:18,333
so I'd have a hard time
believing that there's not
592
00:29:18,367 --> 00:29:22,533
a whole lot of advancement going on
at those highest classified levels
593
00:29:22,567 --> 00:29:25,600
and, remember, none of us are
allowed to know everything.
594
00:29:25,633 --> 00:29:26,900
So...
595
00:29:26,933 --> 00:29:28,876
But, does that mean that you
think this could be something
596
00:29:28,900 --> 00:29:30,967
that's US military or no?
597
00:29:31,067 --> 00:29:33,467
I think that the level
of classification
598
00:29:33,500 --> 00:29:35,467
that we have protects us.
599
00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:38,433
And, so I think
that it's possible.
600
00:29:38,467 --> 00:29:41,600
It is possible, George, one of the
things that really jumps out at me
601
00:29:41,633 --> 00:29:45,133
about the Tic Tac video is
that it comes from 2004.
602
00:29:45,167 --> 00:29:48,100
Why do you think it
took 17 years to catch
603
00:29:48,133 --> 00:29:49,733
the public's
attention like this?
604
00:29:49,767 --> 00:29:51,567
Well, it actually came
out, it was leaked,
605
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:55,300
somebody shot it off a screen and
it got put up on an obscure website
606
00:29:55,333 --> 00:29:58,500
then quickly taken down and
in a couple of years later,
607
00:29:58,533 --> 00:30:01,200
there was a behind the
scenes study that was done
608
00:30:01,233 --> 00:30:03,900
that interviewed all the pilots,
collected all that information.
609
00:30:03,933 --> 00:30:07,800
It wasn't until Jeremy and I started
talking about it in early 2017
610
00:30:07,833 --> 00:30:09,533
that the public was
starting to catch on.
611
00:30:09,567 --> 00:30:12,267
And then The New York Times
got the video and it exploded,
612
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:16,000
they put it on the front page, I think that
is why that story went all over the world.
613
00:30:16,033 --> 00:30:18,133
Amazing stuff. All
right. Coming up,
614
00:30:18,167 --> 00:30:20,833
an exclusive interview with
the airmen who captured
615
00:30:20,867 --> 00:30:23,600
the footage of the
Tic Tac and later,
616
00:30:23,633 --> 00:30:27,267
we will be sharing riveting
footage of a recent UAP sighting
617
00:30:27,300 --> 00:30:28,500
you do not want to miss.
618
00:30:28,533 --> 00:30:31,100
And we'll be speaking to
the man who released it,
619
00:30:31,133 --> 00:30:33,300
the guy sitting next
to me, Jeremy Corbell,
620
00:30:33,333 --> 00:30:36,133
as our experts continue
to examine the evidence
621
00:30:36,167 --> 00:30:38,033
and arrive at their verdict.
622
00:30:38,067 --> 00:30:40,900
Adversary, alien
or something else?
623
00:30:40,933 --> 00:30:43,000
And let us know what you think.
624
00:30:43,033 --> 00:30:45,800
We're trending on Twitter, so
please continue to hit us up
625
00:30:45,833 --> 00:30:49,667
using the hashtag UFOs
Declassified Live,
626
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:52,767
send us your UAP
pics and footage.
627
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,100
Be right back.
628
00:31:16,900 --> 00:31:21,333
[Josh] Welcome back to the show,
our live poll shows that folks
629
00:31:21,367 --> 00:31:25,400
are pretty divided on what the
tic tac video actually shows.
630
00:31:25,433 --> 00:31:27,600
We've got a real split
opinion on this front.
631
00:31:27,633 --> 00:31:31,043
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified Live.
632
00:31:31,067 --> 00:31:34,700
I'm Josh Gates and joining me
on my esteemed panel of experts.
633
00:31:34,733 --> 00:31:39,467
Our UFO aficionados Jeremy Corbell,
George Knapp, and Jim Samivan.
634
00:31:39,500 --> 00:31:42,400
Okay, so before the break,
we saw this Tic Tac video.
635
00:31:42,433 --> 00:31:45,767
It is a remarkable and
compelling piece of evidence
636
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,300
suggesting to some that there
could be extra-terrestrial life.
637
00:31:49,333 --> 00:31:54,900
The footage was captured back in 2004 by
former Navy airman commander Chad Underwood
638
00:31:54,933 --> 00:31:57,800
who actually coined
the term Tic Tac UFO.
639
00:31:57,833 --> 00:32:02,600
He has never spoken publicly
about this incident, until now.
640
00:32:02,633 --> 00:32:05,500
Now, Jeremy, I understand
that when Chad spotted this,
641
00:32:05,533 --> 00:32:09,467
whatever this was, the systems
on his aircraft actually jammed?
642
00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:12,667
Yeah, his optics and weapon
systems were actively jammed.
643
00:32:12,700 --> 00:32:15,067
Okay. This is amazing
stuff, let's take a look.
644
00:32:17,067 --> 00:32:20,500
Declassified videos and authentic
Department of Defense footage.
645
00:32:20,533 --> 00:32:22,967
[man] Splash.
646
00:32:23,067 --> 00:32:25,267
[man on radio] There's
a whole fleet...
647
00:32:25,300 --> 00:32:27,467
[Josh] You should have
been able to target it,
648
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:32,533
you weren't, that is a indication
of active jamming, is that correct?
649
00:32:32,567 --> 00:32:34,733
- Yes.
- Wow.
650
00:32:34,767 --> 00:32:38,500
Once I got the target
of interest on my radar.
651
00:32:38,533 --> 00:32:43,133
I took a lock, and that's when
all the kind of the funky things
652
00:32:43,167 --> 00:32:44,167
started happening.
653
00:32:45,267 --> 00:32:49,043
The erratic nature
of the Tic Tac,
654
00:32:49,067 --> 00:32:52,567
the airspeed was
very telling to me.
655
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,900
Then we started seeing what
we call jam strobe lines,
656
00:32:55,933 --> 00:32:58,200
strobe lines are vertical lines
657
00:32:58,233 --> 00:33:01,500
that show up on your radar that are
indications that you're being jammed.
658
00:33:07,067 --> 00:33:09,133
[indistinct radio chatter]
659
00:33:09,167 --> 00:33:12,500
Interview, uh, I got to
ask first, first off,
660
00:33:12,533 --> 00:33:14,767
how did you get Chad to
speak out about this?
661
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,500
He's been really
reluctant to do that.
662
00:33:16,533 --> 00:33:19,567
Right, so, Commander
David Fravor is the man
663
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,933
that chased the UFO to
United States military,
664
00:33:21,967 --> 00:33:24,600
this same UFO is when
that Commander Underwood
665
00:33:24,633 --> 00:33:26,109
was able to film and
he hasn't talked,
666
00:33:26,133 --> 00:33:28,509
- I like to believe I have a charming personality.
- [laughs]
667
00:33:28,533 --> 00:33:30,133
American can decide
for themselves,
668
00:33:30,167 --> 00:33:33,500
but, also just, you know, we became
friends, we became friends over time
669
00:33:33,533 --> 00:33:35,800
talking about this, I'm just
curious, I wanted to know.
670
00:33:35,833 --> 00:33:38,367
Look, his aircraft
was actively jammed.
671
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,433
What that means is the UFO was
sending a signal to actively jam,
672
00:33:42,467 --> 00:33:44,600
which are tied into
his weapons systems,
673
00:33:44,633 --> 00:33:48,700
that is an act of war
under normal circumstances,
674
00:33:48,733 --> 00:33:50,700
even though this
is highly abnormal.
675
00:33:50,733 --> 00:33:53,567
George, this is your first time
seeing this video, what do you think?
676
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,833
Game changer?
677
00:33:54,867 --> 00:33:57,900
Chad Underwood oozes
credibility, like David Favre,
678
00:33:57,933 --> 00:34:00,043
likes Alex Dietrich,
like Ryan Graves,
679
00:34:00,067 --> 00:34:03,767
these naval aviators are the best
pilots in the world, we trust them,
680
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,467
we trust them to fly these
multimillion dollar planes,
681
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:07,867
we trust their judgment.
682
00:34:07,900 --> 00:34:10,200
We give them top secret
security clearances,
683
00:34:10,233 --> 00:34:12,633
so when they tell us that
something is amiss up there,
684
00:34:12,667 --> 00:34:15,633
that this is a genuine UFO and
I've never seen anything like it.
685
00:34:15,667 --> 00:34:16,567
I believe them.
686
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,043
Jim, as our clandestine
expert here.
687
00:34:19,067 --> 00:34:21,200
Are you surprised that
Chad came forward?
688
00:34:21,233 --> 00:34:25,667
Yes, actually, I am, given the taboo
associated with reporting UAPs,
689
00:34:25,700 --> 00:34:28,167
he's very brave to do this,
very courageous to do this.
690
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:29,700
[Josh] Right, because
a lot of pilots,
691
00:34:29,733 --> 00:34:30,876
they see something like this.
692
00:34:30,900 --> 00:34:32,143
The last thing they're
going to do is.
693
00:34:32,167 --> 00:34:33,409
- Talk about it, right?
- Exactly.
694
00:34:33,433 --> 00:34:36,233
That could be damaging
for their career.
695
00:34:36,267 --> 00:34:37,567
It could be a career killer.
696
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,233
Even in this UAP report that was
697
00:34:40,267 --> 00:34:41,533
released last week, it notes
698
00:34:41,567 --> 00:34:43,800
there's still a stigma
attached to this.
699
00:34:43,833 --> 00:34:45,700
Even though the
navy two years ago
700
00:34:45,733 --> 00:34:47,933
changed its policies,
and tried to encourage
701
00:34:47,967 --> 00:34:49,233
pilots to go ahead,
702
00:34:49,267 --> 00:34:50,800
if you see something,
say something.
703
00:34:50,833 --> 00:34:51,843
A lot of them won't do it.
704
00:34:51,867 --> 00:34:53,367
All right. Lots to
think about here.
705
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,533
Let's go to Jessica and Tracy
706
00:34:55,567 --> 00:34:57,867
for a closer look at
the tic tac video.
707
00:34:58,533 --> 00:34:59,500
Thanks Josh.
708
00:34:59,533 --> 00:35:01,500
Tracy, as a former
fighter pilot,
709
00:35:01,533 --> 00:35:04,767
what makes the tic tack
video so compelling?
710
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:09,867
I think the tic tac video is
interesting because it's not
711
00:35:09,900 --> 00:35:13,133
like anything most
pilots have seen before.
712
00:35:13,167 --> 00:35:18,467
And when you look at
it, it's in one spot
713
00:35:18,500 --> 00:35:20,333
and then kind of pulls away.
714
00:35:20,367 --> 00:35:23,333
But you can see that
he's working really hard
715
00:35:23,367 --> 00:35:24,633
to maintain the lock.
716
00:35:24,667 --> 00:35:29,400
And that suggests that just as
we heard there may have been
717
00:35:29,433 --> 00:35:31,267
some active radar jamming.
718
00:35:31,300 --> 00:35:33,543
And that is definitely something
that's going to get my attention.
719
00:35:33,567 --> 00:35:34,433
Yeah, for sure.
720
00:35:34,467 --> 00:35:36,043
Well, at the end of
the tic tac video,
721
00:35:36,067 --> 00:35:39,067
like you said the
craft zooms off here
722
00:35:39,100 --> 00:35:40,433
kind of to the left.
723
00:35:40,467 --> 00:35:43,733
Is it possible that the
pilot banked to the right
724
00:35:43,767 --> 00:35:47,667
inadvertently and
created his own illusion?
725
00:35:47,700 --> 00:35:48,800
That's a great question.
726
00:35:48,833 --> 00:35:50,800
Actually, if you
look in the center
727
00:35:50,833 --> 00:35:52,400
of the blue line there,
728
00:35:52,433 --> 00:35:54,367
you can see what looks
like the little aircraft,
729
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,167
higher above it.
730
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,367
- Uh-huh.
- Up there, yeah.
731
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,400
We call that the
flight path marker.
732
00:35:59,433 --> 00:36:01,967
It's straight in line with
733
00:36:02,067 --> 00:36:03,333
what we call the horizon line
734
00:36:03,367 --> 00:36:05,733
on either side, and
that's not in a bank.
735
00:36:05,767 --> 00:36:08,100
So, what we're seeing
is that the aircraft
736
00:36:08,133 --> 00:36:10,567
is fairly straight and level,
737
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,333
and that suggests to me
that that object is actually
738
00:36:14,367 --> 00:36:18,043
doing exactly what we think,
it's zooming off on its own.
739
00:36:18,067 --> 00:36:19,533
That was a great explanation.
740
00:36:19,567 --> 00:36:21,200
Obviously I don't know
how to read radar.
741
00:36:21,233 --> 00:36:24,043
So, is there anything else on
this screen that we should be
742
00:36:24,067 --> 00:36:25,600
paying attention to?
What does it mean?
743
00:36:25,633 --> 00:36:27,876
I think an interesting thing
here, you know, we're looking at
744
00:36:27,900 --> 00:36:29,967
infrared technology.
745
00:36:30,067 --> 00:36:33,200
And down in the lower left,
you can see it says WHT.
746
00:36:33,233 --> 00:36:35,633
It's blurry and hard
to see, but that means
747
00:36:35,667 --> 00:36:39,167
we're operating at this moment
what's called a white hot.
748
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,900
If the object is white,
that means it's hot.
749
00:36:41,933 --> 00:36:44,900
That's what we expect to
see from an aircraft because
750
00:36:44,933 --> 00:36:48,100
the engine shows hot,
so it would show white.
751
00:36:48,133 --> 00:36:50,043
Very interesting.
Thanks again, Tracy.
752
00:36:50,067 --> 00:36:51,667
Josh, back to you.
753
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:53,043
Thanks, Jessica and Tracy.
754
00:36:53,067 --> 00:36:56,333
Coming up, we have got
more incredible information
755
00:36:56,367 --> 00:36:57,967
to share from the
pentagon report
756
00:36:58,067 --> 00:37:01,600
and breathtaking video that
checks all the big boxes.
757
00:37:01,633 --> 00:37:02,900
It is not to be missed.
758
00:37:02,933 --> 00:37:04,567
And stick around as our experts
759
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,767
are drawing ever closer
to their conclusion.
760
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,433
Adversaries, aliens or neither?
761
00:37:09,467 --> 00:37:11,027
And don't forget to
share your thoughts,
762
00:37:11,067 --> 00:37:12,600
your photos and footage with us
763
00:37:12,633 --> 00:37:16,867
on twitter using
#ufosdeclassifiedlive.
764
00:37:37,933 --> 00:37:41,567
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified Live.
765
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,367
Just five days ago, the
intelligence community
766
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,400
and the public at large received
767
00:37:46,433 --> 00:37:50,867
a long-awaited government
confirmation of UFO activity.
768
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:53,467
I'm joined by our
panel live in Las Vegas
769
00:37:53,500 --> 00:37:56,400
to discuss the headline
making pentagon report.
770
00:37:56,433 --> 00:37:58,667
Okay. Let's go back
in time, Jeremy,
771
00:37:58,700 --> 00:38:03,200
to Roswell, the grandaddy
of all American UFO stories
772
00:38:03,233 --> 00:38:04,800
in 1947.
773
00:38:04,833 --> 00:38:08,100
We've got a 57-year
gap between that
774
00:38:08,133 --> 00:38:10,300
and the accounts that we
see in this pentagon report.
775
00:38:10,333 --> 00:38:12,233
So, why this gap?
776
00:38:12,267 --> 00:38:15,333
I assume there must've been UFO
sightings in that intervening time.
777
00:38:15,367 --> 00:38:17,333
Yeah, that's interesting.
So, the report is going
778
00:38:17,367 --> 00:38:20,067
just from the tic tac
UFO case and then forward
779
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:21,943
because a lot of the
censored data that they have
780
00:38:21,967 --> 00:38:23,700
and they wanna work
with the military data
781
00:38:23,733 --> 00:38:24,800
is in those years.
782
00:38:24,833 --> 00:38:27,733
But UFOs have been consistent
all the way through.
783
00:38:27,767 --> 00:38:29,667
Why do you think Roswell
784
00:38:29,700 --> 00:38:31,867
continues to capture
our imagination?
785
00:38:31,900 --> 00:38:33,209
Because it did in
the first place.
786
00:38:33,233 --> 00:38:35,167
Because the United
States military admitted
787
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,267
they had a crashed
flying saucer.
788
00:38:37,300 --> 00:38:38,867
They turned it
around the next day.
789
00:38:38,900 --> 00:38:41,367
But there was a moment
they admitted it.
790
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,633
[Josh] George, can we
talk about Area 51?
791
00:38:43,667 --> 00:38:45,433
You were such a key player
792
00:38:45,467 --> 00:38:46,933
in breaking that
story wide open.
793
00:38:46,967 --> 00:38:50,267
What is the connection
between Area 51 and Roswell?
794
00:38:50,300 --> 00:38:52,767
The story of Roswell has
been muddied over the years
795
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:53,933
and I think on purpose.
796
00:38:53,967 --> 00:38:56,200
The first story came
from the U.S. military.
797
00:38:56,233 --> 00:38:58,133
They said a flying
saucer crashed out there.
798
00:38:58,167 --> 00:39:00,800
Then they changed it to,
it was a weather balloon.
799
00:39:00,833 --> 00:39:03,367
Then they changed it again
to a super-duper double
800
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,067
secret probation
weather balloon.
801
00:39:05,100 --> 00:39:08,633
It was hard to get a good
handle of what was out there.
802
00:39:08,667 --> 00:39:11,043
But if you had a
crashed flying saucer,
803
00:39:11,067 --> 00:39:12,467
if you're trying
to take it apart,
804
00:39:12,500 --> 00:39:14,833
reverse engineer it,
figure out how it works,
805
00:39:14,867 --> 00:39:15,800
where would you take it?
806
00:39:15,833 --> 00:39:16,800
I would say the top of the list
807
00:39:16,833 --> 00:39:19,067
would be area 51
because it has been
808
00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:20,633
the location of choice
809
00:39:20,667 --> 00:39:23,100
for testing all kinds
of top secret platforms.
810
00:39:23,133 --> 00:39:26,267
The U-2, the Black Bird,
the stealth fighter
811
00:39:26,300 --> 00:39:27,700
were all developed out there.
812
00:39:27,733 --> 00:39:30,633
I've interviewed two
dozen witnesses or more
813
00:39:30,667 --> 00:39:32,200
who over the years
worked out there
814
00:39:32,233 --> 00:39:34,233
and said they've seen
something that sure
815
00:39:34,267 --> 00:39:36,900
looks like a flying saucer
that we were taking apart,
816
00:39:36,933 --> 00:39:39,043
to figure out how it
worked, not building it.
817
00:39:39,067 --> 00:39:40,044
Incredible stuff.
818
00:39:40,068 --> 00:39:41,667
I want to pore over
some of the language
819
00:39:41,700 --> 00:39:43,067
in this report with you, Jim.
820
00:39:43,100 --> 00:39:44,833
It says, and I'm quoting,
821
00:39:44,867 --> 00:39:47,043
"Some UAP, maybe, technologies
822
00:39:47,067 --> 00:39:49,367
deployed by China, Russia,
823
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:50,500
another nation, a
824
00:39:50,533 --> 00:39:51,867
non-governmental entity perhaps.
825
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:54,633
So, what does a non-governmental
826
00:39:54,667 --> 00:39:55,967
entity constitute?
827
00:39:56,067 --> 00:39:58,467
I was not really sure
what they meant by that.
828
00:39:58,500 --> 00:40:00,333
There's a possibility
they meant either
829
00:40:00,367 --> 00:40:02,367
a terrorist
organization or perhaps
830
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,833
a rogue private corporation.
831
00:40:04,867 --> 00:40:07,000
But in my opinion, I think it's
832
00:40:07,033 --> 00:40:10,100
highly unlikely
that China, Russia,
833
00:40:10,133 --> 00:40:12,867
or a non-governmental
entity is behind UAPs.
834
00:40:12,900 --> 00:40:16,767
Could this be just the case
of an individual, Nick?
835
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:17,867
I guess I turn to you.
836
00:40:17,900 --> 00:40:20,167
How do we know
these UAPs aren't,
837
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:21,733
you know, some kid with a drone?
838
00:40:21,767 --> 00:40:23,567
Because I'm sure that's
what a lot of skeptics
839
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:24,967
would put forward, right?
840
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,376
All the drones we have out there
and we've seen problems with drones
841
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:28,733
at airports and other places.
842
00:40:28,767 --> 00:40:30,800
Could that be what
people are seeing?
843
00:40:30,833 --> 00:40:34,300
Well, I think drones might explain
some sightings, but not all.
844
00:40:34,333 --> 00:40:37,633
The report says there are
multiple explanations for UFOs.
845
00:40:37,667 --> 00:40:39,733
We know what drones look like.
846
00:40:39,767 --> 00:40:41,700
We know what kind
of heat signatures
847
00:40:41,733 --> 00:40:44,667
some of them give off,
what radar returns.
848
00:40:44,700 --> 00:40:47,533
And this is not drone.
849
00:40:47,567 --> 00:40:49,700
There's something
else at play here.
850
00:40:49,733 --> 00:40:51,533
Right. Drones are not
giving fighter jets
851
00:40:51,567 --> 00:40:53,000
a run for their money typically.
852
00:40:53,033 --> 00:40:56,333
Absolutely. Again, it's
the capability here.
853
00:40:56,367 --> 00:41:00,300
It's running rings around our
best cutting edge technology.
854
00:41:00,333 --> 00:41:03,267
So, if whatever these
are are extraterrestrial,
855
00:41:03,300 --> 00:41:05,500
if there are aliens
out there and they are,
856
00:41:05,533 --> 00:41:08,600
as they would have to be here a
technologically advanced species,
857
00:41:08,633 --> 00:41:11,233
then chances are they
come from what is known as
858
00:41:11,267 --> 00:41:13,467
a Goldilocks planet
where conditions
859
00:41:13,500 --> 00:41:15,300
for life are just right.
860
00:41:15,333 --> 00:41:16,700
With more, here's Jessica
861
00:41:16,733 --> 00:41:20,267
and renowned astrophysicist
and author of Quantum Life,
862
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:22,133
Dr. Hakeem Oluseyi.
863
00:41:23,367 --> 00:41:24,233
Thank you, Josh.
864
00:41:24,267 --> 00:41:26,533
Dr. O, we know our
universe is vast
865
00:41:26,567 --> 00:41:29,200
and there are more planets
beyond our solar system,
866
00:41:29,233 --> 00:41:32,933
so let's talk about
life on those planets.
867
00:41:32,967 --> 00:41:35,867
To say our universe is
vast is an understatement.
868
00:41:35,900 --> 00:41:39,200
This representation right
here shows galaxies.
869
00:41:39,233 --> 00:41:40,700
We think of galaxies as being
870
00:41:40,733 --> 00:41:42,733
the basic building
blocks of the universe
871
00:41:42,767 --> 00:41:44,867
and there's 2 trillion galaxies
872
00:41:44,900 --> 00:41:46,300
in the observable universe.
873
00:41:46,333 --> 00:41:51,043
Now, each galaxies has on
average 100 billion stars,
874
00:41:51,067 --> 00:41:55,043
so that's 100 billion
trillion stars
875
00:41:55,067 --> 00:41:56,044
that we're talking about.
876
00:41:56,068 --> 00:41:57,868
And what we learned from
the Kepler satellite,
877
00:41:57,900 --> 00:42:00,533
is that star, when they form,
878
00:42:00,567 --> 00:42:03,300
planet formation is a side
effect of star formation.
879
00:42:03,333 --> 00:42:05,933
So, just about every
star has planets.
880
00:42:05,967 --> 00:42:09,043
So, we're talking about
multiples of a hundred billion
881
00:42:09,067 --> 00:42:10,676
trillion when we're
talking about planets.
882
00:42:10,700 --> 00:42:13,300
So that's a lot of opportunity
for life in the universe
883
00:42:13,333 --> 00:42:15,633
and for technological life to
come about in the universe.
884
00:42:15,667 --> 00:42:17,376
That's amazing. Tons
of opportunities there.
885
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,043
So, I know there are different
types of goldilocks planets.
886
00:42:20,067 --> 00:42:21,767
So, let's talk about
the ice covered ones.
887
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,167
What makes it so special?
888
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,067
So, when we look for
life away from earth,
889
00:42:26,100 --> 00:42:28,043
we have a phrase,
and that phrase is,
890
00:42:28,067 --> 00:42:29,267
"Follow the water."
891
00:42:29,300 --> 00:42:31,367
What we see for
ice covered worlds,
892
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,533
like we have right here
893
00:42:32,567 --> 00:42:34,667
we have these in our
own solar system.
894
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:37,233
Enceladus and Europa, are moons,
895
00:42:37,267 --> 00:42:40,043
that have ice on the surface,
896
00:42:40,067 --> 00:42:41,300
and the ice is miles thick.
897
00:42:41,333 --> 00:42:43,667
But under underneath there's
a liquid water ocean.
898
00:42:43,700 --> 00:42:45,167
And what we know about life,
899
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,200
based on the work of
biologists and astrobiologists
900
00:42:48,233 --> 00:42:49,600
- of the last 20 years...
- Mmm-hmm
901
00:42:49,633 --> 00:42:54,167
is that life starts in the
absence of light and oxygen.
902
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,233
So, life could get started
on a place just like this.
903
00:42:57,267 --> 00:43:00,600
Okay, and so, then what
about earth-like exoplanets?
904
00:43:00,633 --> 00:43:02,767
Yeah. Now we're
getting to planets
905
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,476
- that are more like ourselves, right?
- Yeah.
906
00:43:04,500 --> 00:43:06,433
So we're talking
about rocky worlds.
907
00:43:06,467 --> 00:43:08,800
And these rocky
worlds have a surface.
908
00:43:08,833 --> 00:43:12,067
And on earth's surface, that's
where we have a lot of water.
909
00:43:12,100 --> 00:43:14,600
Now it turns out that one
of the most common type
910
00:43:14,633 --> 00:43:17,300
of earth-like planets is
what we call a super earth.
911
00:43:17,333 --> 00:43:20,933
They're more massive, bigger
and gravity is stronger.
912
00:43:20,967 --> 00:43:23,267
So, there is a life form that
913
00:43:23,300 --> 00:43:24,633
comes into existence there,
914
00:43:24,667 --> 00:43:28,333
it's going to be a lot
stronger and a lot shorter.
915
00:43:28,367 --> 00:43:30,433
So, think dwarf
Incredible Hulks.
916
00:43:30,467 --> 00:43:32,043
That's amazing.
917
00:43:32,067 --> 00:43:33,343
All right, so tell
us then about...
918
00:43:33,367 --> 00:43:34,733
What are habitable zones?
919
00:43:34,767 --> 00:43:36,367
Right, so the habitable zone,
920
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,833
is kind of an old idea.
921
00:43:37,867 --> 00:43:41,567
Because we thought about the
habitable zone as where life may form
922
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,267
and where life may be found.
923
00:43:43,300 --> 00:43:45,167
But like I said, we now know
924
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,933
that life is not formed.
925
00:43:46,967 --> 00:43:48,367
And what this has to do with is
926
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,800
how far away the
planet is from its star
927
00:43:50,833 --> 00:43:53,400
so it can have liquid
water on its surface.
928
00:43:53,433 --> 00:43:54,633
Now...
929
00:43:54,667 --> 00:43:56,907
What this doesn't tell you is
what's the light conditions
930
00:43:56,933 --> 00:43:58,200
on the surface of the star.
931
00:43:58,233 --> 00:44:00,600
So, here on earth something
really special happened.
932
00:44:00,633 --> 00:44:02,067
Whereas most planets
933
00:44:02,100 --> 00:44:03,143
where you're going
to find liquid,
934
00:44:03,167 --> 00:44:04,643
they're going to be
under thick atmospheres
935
00:44:04,667 --> 00:44:06,633
or miles of ice,
or miles of rock.
936
00:44:06,667 --> 00:44:09,167
On earth we have a
transparent atmosphere.
937
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,667
So, we have an ocean,
with early life in it,
938
00:44:11,700 --> 00:44:14,133
you mix it up and
shine energy on it
939
00:44:14,167 --> 00:44:16,933
- for four billion years, what do you get?
- Mmm-hmm.
940
00:44:16,967 --> 00:44:19,600
Eventually, that life
learns to use that light
941
00:44:19,633 --> 00:44:20,733
to create oxygen,
942
00:44:20,767 --> 00:44:22,500
which is deadly to early life,
943
00:44:22,533 --> 00:44:26,133
but it allows and sets the
stage for life like ourselves.
944
00:44:26,167 --> 00:44:28,567
So, a habitable zone
945
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,600
is where you can have
an explosion of life
946
00:44:31,633 --> 00:44:34,600
that can lead to intelligent and
technologically advanced life.
947
00:44:34,633 --> 00:44:36,967
So, someone flipped the
lights on and it's go time.
948
00:44:37,067 --> 00:44:38,833
That's right. After
a few billion years.
949
00:44:38,867 --> 00:44:40,533
After... Yeah.
Give or take, yeah.
950
00:44:40,567 --> 00:44:43,333
Thanks for your time,
Dr. O. Josh, back to you.
951
00:44:43,367 --> 00:44:44,733
Thanks, Jessica and Dr. O.
952
00:44:44,767 --> 00:44:47,567
Now turning from science
to science fiction.
953
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,233
One of the longest running
and popular tv shows
954
00:44:50,267 --> 00:44:53,067
in sci-fi history
was The X-files.
955
00:44:53,100 --> 00:44:55,500
The show's creator, Chris
Carter spoke candidly
956
00:44:55,533 --> 00:44:57,800
about the Pentagon report
and the possibility of
957
00:44:57,833 --> 00:44:59,667
life beyond earth.
958
00:45:02,700 --> 00:45:05,043
People asked me what I believe
959
00:45:05,067 --> 00:45:07,800
in the UFO phenomenon and
alien abduction phenomenon,
960
00:45:07,833 --> 00:45:10,133
and I'm kind of a hybrid
of Mulder and Scully.
961
00:45:10,167 --> 00:45:13,600
Like Mulder I want to believe
like that poster on his wall,
962
00:45:13,633 --> 00:45:16,043
and like Scully, I want
to see the science.
963
00:45:16,067 --> 00:45:18,167
Uh, I'm skeptical by nature.
964
00:45:19,733 --> 00:45:21,500
For me the videos are exciting.
965
00:45:21,533 --> 00:45:25,167
That on modern equipment
and with modern technology.
966
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,043
We are capturing something
967
00:45:27,067 --> 00:45:29,300
that is out there,
and it's behaving
968
00:45:29,333 --> 00:45:32,333
in a strange and
mysterious manner.
969
00:45:32,367 --> 00:45:34,300
This is a really exciting time.
970
00:45:34,333 --> 00:45:36,767
We may or may not learn
what these things are,
971
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,533
but I think it's... recent
studies and recent sightings
972
00:45:39,567 --> 00:45:40,647
have pushed things forward.
973
00:45:42,467 --> 00:45:45,833
I think our reactions to
the UFO videos are healthy.
974
00:45:45,867 --> 00:45:48,767
The pilots, for me,
seem unimpeachable.
975
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,300
What they gathered
from their avionics
976
00:45:51,333 --> 00:45:53,833
or radar seems beyond doubt
977
00:45:53,867 --> 00:45:54,967
that they saw those things.
978
00:45:55,067 --> 00:45:56,933
And that their reactions
to them are real.
979
00:45:56,967 --> 00:45:58,767
[man] Oh! Got him!
980
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,233
[Chris] So the X-Files, and
the subject matter and UFOs
981
00:46:02,267 --> 00:46:05,833
are being some credence that
they might not have had before.
982
00:46:05,867 --> 00:46:08,133
You know, I believe that
we don't have answers.
983
00:46:08,167 --> 00:46:10,067
I believe that we're
searching for answers.
984
00:46:10,100 --> 00:46:13,533
I believe that there are the
possibility of alien life out there.
985
00:46:13,567 --> 00:46:16,233
Like Carl Sagan
who actually said,
986
00:46:16,267 --> 00:46:18,043
you know, "There's
more chance than not."
987
00:46:18,067 --> 00:46:20,367
And now we've discovered
since the '90s
988
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,833
there are these exoplanets
revolving around their own suns.
989
00:46:23,867 --> 00:46:27,633
The chance is even greater now
there is life on these planets.
990
00:46:31,533 --> 00:46:34,467
The truth is out there.
We've asked for your tweets,
991
00:46:34,500 --> 00:46:37,867
photos and footage. Let's
see who answered the call.
992
00:46:39,533 --> 00:46:42,267
Artemis here says, "Do
you think we'll meet
993
00:46:42,300 --> 00:46:44,800
actual aliens in our lifetime?"
994
00:46:44,833 --> 00:46:47,200
Nick, what are your
thoughts on that?
995
00:46:47,233 --> 00:46:49,800
I hope so. I think ours
will be the generation
996
00:46:49,833 --> 00:46:51,633
that makes that discovery
whether it's through
997
00:46:51,667 --> 00:46:54,667
- science or UFOs or both.
- Fantastic.
998
00:46:54,700 --> 00:46:57,767
Asked and answered. Don't
be shy about sending us
999
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:01,567
your questions using the
#UFOsDeclassifiedLIVE.
1000
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,733
Josh, take it away.
1001
00:47:03,767 --> 00:47:07,900
Well, coming up, we will be
screening the entire footage
1002
00:47:07,933 --> 00:47:10,867
that got the entire
pentagon report rolling.
1003
00:47:10,900 --> 00:47:14,333
Plus our experts will debate
the origins of the UAPs
1004
00:47:14,367 --> 00:47:17,967
when UFOs Declassified:
LIVE returns.
1005
00:47:37,267 --> 00:47:40,867
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: LIVE.
1006
00:47:40,900 --> 00:47:43,467
I'm Josh Gates. Personally,
I have been blown away
1007
00:47:43,500 --> 00:47:45,043
by what we've seen so far.
1008
00:47:45,067 --> 00:47:47,467
And man, we are just warming
up. There is so much more.
1009
00:47:47,500 --> 00:47:49,867
Earlier this year,
the pentagon confirmed
1010
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:53,667
that one of the most intriguing
UFO videos on record,
1011
00:47:53,700 --> 00:47:57,133
footage of a mysterious
triangular airborne craft,
1012
00:47:57,167 --> 00:48:00,367
sourced by our own Jeremy
Corbell here back in 2019
1013
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,533
is indeed authentic.
1014
00:48:02,567 --> 00:48:06,100
Check this out. This is
the pyramid-shaped UFO.
1015
00:48:07,233 --> 00:48:09,267
All right. Walk me
through this, Jeremy.
1016
00:48:09,300 --> 00:48:10,776
- What are we looking at?
- [Jeremy] Sure.
1017
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,800
So, George and I
obtained and released,
1018
00:48:12,833 --> 00:48:17,267
this is night vision through a night vision
binocular on board of the USS Russell.
1019
00:48:17,300 --> 00:48:21,100
There are pyramid-shaped
UFOs, numerous of them.
1020
00:48:21,133 --> 00:48:23,300
Three of them were
about 700 feet.
1021
00:48:23,333 --> 00:48:25,043
They are slow and
go with the ship.
1022
00:48:25,067 --> 00:48:27,709
[Josh] Oh, look at that. It's not just
one object. It's multiple objects there.
1023
00:48:27,733 --> 00:48:29,543
[Jeremy] Right. One is
blinking and there's been
1024
00:48:29,567 --> 00:48:32,633
a lot of thought about that,
is this just the UFO blinking
1025
00:48:32,667 --> 00:48:34,433
or is this reflection
from a surface
1026
00:48:34,467 --> 00:48:36,633
and the blinking is
something from the ship.
1027
00:48:36,667 --> 00:48:39,633
We don't know. But these
are pyramid-shaped UFOs,
1028
00:48:39,667 --> 00:48:42,467
swarming a Navy
warship, USS Russell.
1029
00:48:42,500 --> 00:48:45,200
[Josh] Absolutely
incredible footage.
1030
00:48:45,233 --> 00:48:49,133
It's just mind bending because
you look at it and you think,
1031
00:48:49,167 --> 00:48:50,800
"What am I looking at here?"
1032
00:48:50,833 --> 00:48:55,167
[Jeremy] Confirmed by the pentagon
not, only filmed by our military,
1033
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,500
but also to be included as
an unknown unidentified.
1034
00:48:58,533 --> 00:49:00,267
They're UFOs and
they're admitting it.
1035
00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:02,533
Okay, so this footage
gets even crazier
1036
00:49:02,567 --> 00:49:04,900
because as amazing as this is,
1037
00:49:04,933 --> 00:49:09,043
this footage was taken by the USS
Russell off the coast of San Diego
1038
00:49:09,067 --> 00:49:13,133
at the same exact same
time, nearby the USS Omaha
1039
00:49:13,167 --> 00:49:16,967
detected its own swarm
of unidentified objects.
1040
00:49:17,067 --> 00:49:20,467
Take a look at their radar and
give a listen to the reaction
1041
00:49:20,500 --> 00:49:23,333
of the military personnel.
This is amazing.
1042
00:49:23,367 --> 00:49:26,833
[man 1] If you can ride a
general that long where we're at.
1043
00:49:27,900 --> 00:49:32,367
The number of contacts
you got, speed meters off.
1044
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,200
- Yeah.
- Roll that position to us.
1045
00:49:36,067 --> 00:49:40,233
Eyes up, eyes up.
1046
00:49:41,333 --> 00:49:44,600
[indistinct radio chatter]
1047
00:49:46,767 --> 00:49:51,433
781 just sped up to
46 knots, 50 knots,
1048
00:49:51,467 --> 00:49:54,067
closing in.
1049
00:49:56,967 --> 00:49:59,100
38 knots, what the
[bleep] is that?
1050
00:49:59,133 --> 00:50:02,800
- That one's pretty much perfectly 000 relative, right?
- Yeah.
1051
00:50:03,433 --> 00:50:05,267
263 in three miles.
1052
00:50:05,300 --> 00:50:08,300
55 knots speed.
1053
00:50:08,333 --> 00:50:11,400
All right. This just makes my head
hurt because, you know, I have to say
1054
00:50:11,433 --> 00:50:15,900
I am a skeptically minded person,
but I look at the pyramid footage
1055
00:50:15,933 --> 00:50:17,467
and I think, okay,
that's intriguing.
1056
00:50:17,500 --> 00:50:19,800
Then I look at the radar
from the Omaha nearby.
1057
00:50:19,833 --> 00:50:21,243
Now I really don't
know what to think.
1058
00:50:21,267 --> 00:50:23,300
And it gets even crazier.
1059
00:50:23,333 --> 00:50:26,633
I'm going to show you now flair
footage taken from the Omaha.
1060
00:50:26,667 --> 00:50:31,100
It's a different view of one of the
UAP involved in the radar swarm.
1061
00:50:31,133 --> 00:50:34,633
Give a listen to this.
It is really exciting.
1062
00:50:34,667 --> 00:50:40,833
Omaha, across the possibility
to launch kilo ASAP.
1063
00:50:41,733 --> 00:50:45,467
We're splashing apparently.
1064
00:50:45,500 --> 00:50:47,967
- Keep going, bro.
- [indistinct chatter]
1065
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,933
We're making that [bleep].
1066
00:50:52,267 --> 00:50:54,267
Yeah, it's coming down.
1067
00:50:54,300 --> 00:50:56,967
We got some water up
there, six foot twelves.
1068
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:58,500
Well, it's getting close.
1069
00:51:02,533 --> 00:51:08,967
Damn, we have uh, 31 knots
sustained, wind topside, gusts of 40.
1070
00:51:09,067 --> 00:51:13,043
- It splashed.
- Splashed. Bearing a range.
1071
00:51:13,067 --> 00:51:15,700
- So, it goes in the water.
- Yeah.
1072
00:51:15,733 --> 00:51:18,767
It's suspected that it goes into the
water like a transmedian vehicle.
1073
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:20,933
They're not exactly sure,
but they did send out
1074
00:51:20,967 --> 00:51:23,176
- a submarine to look for it.
- So walk me through this term
1075
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:25,467
'cause I've heard this
before, a transmedia vehicle.
1076
00:51:25,500 --> 00:51:27,500
This means it can be in
the air and underwater.
1077
00:51:27,533 --> 00:51:29,600
Right. So something that
can penetrate the space
1078
00:51:29,633 --> 00:51:32,967
between air and sea
without disturbance,
1079
00:51:33,067 --> 00:51:34,400
without destruction.
1080
00:51:34,433 --> 00:51:37,167
It's just remarkable
to see it do that.
1081
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:41,767
Nick, is it possible that what appears
to be an object going into the water here
1082
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:46,267
is some sort of, I don't know,
stealth technology, optical illusion?
1083
00:51:46,300 --> 00:51:49,043
Well, I wonder if it isn't
like the old magician's trick,
1084
00:51:49,067 --> 00:51:51,043
if doing something
with one hand,
1085
00:51:51,067 --> 00:51:53,733
but the real action is
going on in the other.
1086
00:51:53,767 --> 00:51:56,043
And, I mean, this
is extraordinary.
1087
00:51:56,067 --> 00:52:00,833
But in 2018, the defense
intelligence agency wrote to Congress
1088
00:52:00,867 --> 00:52:05,067
about a number of studies being undertaken
under the Pentagon's A-tip program.
1089
00:52:05,100 --> 00:52:08,367
And in there were all this advanced
theoretical physical concepts
1090
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,967
such as warp drives, worm
holes and invisibility.
1091
00:52:12,067 --> 00:52:14,867
And we mentioned this submarine,
they did send a submarine
1092
00:52:14,900 --> 00:52:17,133
- down to look for this thing?
- Yes, 'cause understand.
1093
00:52:17,167 --> 00:52:21,067
This was a swarm. There were
multiple UFOs across many ships.
1094
00:52:21,100 --> 00:52:24,367
And so when they see this one that
goes or appears to go into the water,
1095
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,109
they wanted to find the
wreckage of the craft.
1096
00:52:26,133 --> 00:52:28,767
I have to say, as
compelling as the report is,
1097
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:33,043
this sequence of this flair
footage, the radar footage,
1098
00:52:33,067 --> 00:52:35,767
the night vision, it's
just so interesting.
1099
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,767
Okay. And also,
unidentified objects,
1100
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,533
they are not just something that
are appearing in the United States.
1101
00:52:42,567 --> 00:52:46,900
Up next, we're going to investigate
UAP sightings from around the globe.
1102
00:52:46,933 --> 00:52:49,533
Plus, we have got some
phenomenal new footage
1103
00:52:49,567 --> 00:52:52,733
from the deck of the Omaha
which checks all the boxes.
1104
00:52:52,767 --> 00:52:55,933
And maybe the final piece
of evidence our experts need
1105
00:52:55,967 --> 00:52:59,433
to nail down whether
these UAPs are adversary,
1106
00:52:59,467 --> 00:53:02,767
extraterrestrial or
something else entirely.
1107
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:06,500
And later, we'll be joined by
none other than the head of NASA.
1108
00:53:31,667 --> 00:53:34,233
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: LIVE.
1109
00:53:34,267 --> 00:53:35,733
I'm your host Josh Gates.
1110
00:53:35,767 --> 00:53:40,167
The footage of pyramid-shaped UFOs
may be relatively new to many of us,
1111
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,167
but actually pyramid videos have
been around for quite a while.
1112
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,100
In fact, our own George Knapp
1113
00:53:46,133 --> 00:53:50,800
smuggled some pyramid UFO footage
out of Russia several few years ago.
1114
00:53:50,833 --> 00:53:54,400
Let's go to Jessica and the man
himself to talk about it. Jess?
1115
00:53:54,433 --> 00:53:57,167
Thanks, Josh. George, let's talk
a look at your pyramid video
1116
00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,500
- and you can tell me about it.
- Okay.
1117
00:53:59,533 --> 00:54:01,233
So what have we got here?
1118
00:54:01,267 --> 00:54:04,167
This is a huge pyramid-shaped
object, not triangle,
1119
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:08,367
but pyramid that was shot over
the skies of Latvia in 1968.
1120
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,467
It ended up in the
ministry of defense.
1121
00:54:10,500 --> 00:54:13,600
Russia's ministry of defense
had giant files on UFOs
1122
00:54:13,633 --> 00:54:16,567
that I tried to access
in the early '90s.
1123
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:18,567
You might recall
during the early '90s,
1124
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:22,167
Glasnost, Perestroika, that country
was undergoing a lot of changes
1125
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:24,467
and I thought maybe there's
a window of opportunity
1126
00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:26,767
to find out what the
Russians know about UFOs
1127
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,043
and also, what the Americans know
about UFOs from the Russians.
1128
00:54:30,067 --> 00:54:33,300
And we went over there with
the help of a Russian physicist
1129
00:54:33,333 --> 00:54:35,267
who had government contacts.
1130
00:54:35,300 --> 00:54:38,967
He put us in touch with ministry of defense
officials and intelligence officials
1131
00:54:39,067 --> 00:54:41,867
and they told us about the
biggest UFO study in history.
1132
00:54:41,900 --> 00:54:43,633
It was ten-year long study.
1133
00:54:43,667 --> 00:54:45,700
The whole Russian
military was part of it.
1134
00:54:45,733 --> 00:54:49,267
They had collected tens of thousands
of reports, including videos,
1135
00:54:49,300 --> 00:54:51,367
and I was able to get
some of that material,
1136
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,200
- classified as it was, and bring it back.
- Very interesting.
1137
00:54:54,233 --> 00:54:57,867
I wanted to zoom in on this a little
bit so we can get a better view.
1138
00:54:57,900 --> 00:55:00,467
Oh, I need that to go. Ooh.
1139
00:55:00,500 --> 00:55:01,600
No, my zoom is not working.
1140
00:55:01,633 --> 00:55:04,367
So, how did you manage to
smuggle this out of Russia?
1141
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:05,867
I think I'm gonna
be vague about that
1142
00:55:05,900 --> 00:55:08,633
- because someday I might want to go back to Russia.
- [laughs] Nice.
1143
00:55:08,667 --> 00:55:12,043
Yeah, but it was a very tense
moment, I'll just put it that way.
1144
00:55:12,067 --> 00:55:14,433
But they consider this
to be a genuine UFO
1145
00:55:14,467 --> 00:55:17,267
because of some of the
characteristics of how it flew,
1146
00:55:17,300 --> 00:55:19,433
even though we don't see
it in this film clip.
1147
00:55:19,467 --> 00:55:22,267
But it was part of a
gigantic cache of information
1148
00:55:22,300 --> 00:55:25,043
that the ministry of defense
collected over a ten-year period.
1149
00:55:25,067 --> 00:55:28,467
- How long ago was this particular footage taken?
- That's 1968.
1150
00:55:28,500 --> 00:55:31,167
Latvia which was sort of
part of the USSR back then.
1151
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,867
The USSR crumbled and
the Russians took over,
1152
00:55:34,900 --> 00:55:36,100
but that was in their files.
1153
00:55:36,133 --> 00:55:38,700
So obviously there's
been video documentation
1154
00:55:38,733 --> 00:55:41,900
of pyramid-shaped UFOs
for over 50 years.
1155
00:55:41,933 --> 00:55:46,267
Why do you think people are only talking
and paying attention about it now?
1156
00:55:46,300 --> 00:55:47,967
It's kind of a
combination of events.
1157
00:55:48,067 --> 00:55:50,143
You know, there's always something
more important in your life,
1158
00:55:50,167 --> 00:55:53,667
the economy, your family,
whatever, you know, politics.
1159
00:55:53,700 --> 00:55:58,367
And now we've had such an avalanche
of UFO coverage by main stream media
1160
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,533
that it's caught the attention
of the public in a way
1161
00:56:01,567 --> 00:56:03,300
that I never thought I
would see in my life.
1162
00:56:03,333 --> 00:56:06,209
That's great. Well, right now we're
going to do a side-by-side comparison
1163
00:56:06,233 --> 00:56:09,567
of your footage and
the footage from 2019.
1164
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,567
So let's pull that up.
1165
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:13,633
So what I think is really
interesting about this
1166
00:56:13,667 --> 00:56:16,767
is over here from Latvia, you
kind of have a beveled edge.
1167
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:19,167
It's all by itself and it's
kind of staying perfectly still.
1168
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:21,900
Over here, you've got
multiple shaped UFOs
1169
00:56:21,933 --> 00:56:24,800
or multiple triangle-shaped UFOs
1170
00:56:24,833 --> 00:56:26,933
as well as the fact
that it's pulsing.
1171
00:56:26,967 --> 00:56:29,333
Yeah, this guy, the
pyramid over here
1172
00:56:29,367 --> 00:56:31,043
brought his buddies
along with him.
1173
00:56:31,067 --> 00:56:33,200
If you notice, if you watch
the footage close enough,
1174
00:56:33,233 --> 00:56:34,700
they're not traveling
all at once.
1175
00:56:34,733 --> 00:56:37,100
It's not a reflection,
those two different objects
1176
00:56:37,133 --> 00:56:42,100
are paced at a different pace than the
main object that we see that's flashing.
1177
00:56:42,133 --> 00:56:43,900
This guy came by himself.
1178
00:56:43,933 --> 00:56:45,900
Would you say just off
the top of your head,
1179
00:56:45,933 --> 00:56:47,367
could they
potentially be related
1180
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,743
and this is just a more advanced
version of whatever this was?
1181
00:56:49,767 --> 00:56:51,300
Yeah, that's a good thought.
1182
00:56:51,333 --> 00:56:54,600
I mean, it was 30 years in between,
so it's possible, 40 years in between,
1183
00:56:54,633 --> 00:56:59,043
so it's possible that the same kind of
technology is reflected in those film clips.
1184
00:56:59,067 --> 00:57:01,533
Interesting. I'd
say yours holds up.
1185
00:57:01,567 --> 00:57:04,400
Thank you very much,
George. Back to you, Josh.
1186
00:57:04,433 --> 00:57:07,600
Absolutely incredible stuff.
For the kids watching at home,
1187
00:57:07,633 --> 00:57:10,043
don't smuggle UFO
videos out of Russia.
1188
00:57:10,067 --> 00:57:11,667
It's a bold move, George.
1189
00:57:11,700 --> 00:57:15,233
Look, the fact he was able to smuggle
this footage out proves this next point.
1190
00:57:15,267 --> 00:57:18,833
These UAPs, they are
a worldwide concern.
1191
00:57:18,867 --> 00:57:20,633
So far we have
focused on sightings
1192
00:57:20,667 --> 00:57:24,043
off the Florida and California
coast here in the United States,
1193
00:57:24,067 --> 00:57:26,967
but the phenomena extends
all around the globe.
1194
00:57:27,067 --> 00:57:28,300
Let's take a look.
1195
00:57:31,100 --> 00:57:33,267
[Nick] UFOs are a
global phenomenon.
1196
00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:37,600
While the current spotlight
is on the United States,
1197
00:57:37,633 --> 00:57:41,633
there is more to this than just
those three U.S. Navy videos.
1198
00:57:41,667 --> 00:57:43,043
[man] My gosh.
1199
00:57:43,067 --> 00:57:44,933
[man speaking other language]
1200
00:57:50,933 --> 00:57:53,733
[Tom] I think when it comes
to UFOs, it's a global issue.
1201
00:57:53,767 --> 00:57:56,433
It's a humanity issue. What
I've seen with other countries
1202
00:57:56,467 --> 00:58:00,633
is pretty interesting. Every
country for the most part
1203
00:58:00,667 --> 00:58:04,300
has their own UFO program.
They're much more open
1204
00:58:04,333 --> 00:58:07,400
with their population on
these things than we are.
1205
00:58:07,433 --> 00:58:10,267
But we're really kind of
waiting for us to take the lead.
1206
00:58:12,700 --> 00:58:16,433
I think it would be safe to
say that most world governments
1207
00:58:16,467 --> 00:58:19,933
have encountered this UAP
phenomenon without a doubt.
1208
00:58:19,967 --> 00:58:21,200
It appears everywhere.
1209
00:58:22,067 --> 00:58:24,133
[Jim] But we can't predict
1210
00:58:24,167 --> 00:58:25,600
when they're going to appear,
1211
00:58:25,633 --> 00:58:26,833
why they're going to appear
1212
00:58:26,867 --> 00:58:28,600
and where they're
going to appear.
1213
00:58:28,633 --> 00:58:30,967
But we do know that there
are some governments,
1214
00:58:31,067 --> 00:58:34,700
particularly in Brazil,
Argentina, Chile, Peru,
1215
00:58:34,733 --> 00:58:38,233
France, the UK, Australia,
1216
00:58:38,267 --> 00:58:40,043
all of these countries
1217
00:58:40,067 --> 00:58:42,667
have information
on these sightings.
1218
00:58:42,700 --> 00:58:44,333
[Keith] It seems
very simple to say.
1219
00:58:44,367 --> 00:58:47,400
"Why don't all the countries
of the world cooperate,
1220
00:58:47,433 --> 00:58:48,400
be friends,"
1221
00:58:48,433 --> 00:58:50,800
and until there is a global
1222
00:58:50,833 --> 00:58:53,500
acknowledgment of the threat,
1223
00:58:53,533 --> 00:58:57,300
it seems unlikely that there
will be significant cooperation.
1224
00:59:01,567 --> 00:59:02,967
Incredibly enlightening stuff.
1225
00:59:03,067 --> 00:59:04,633
I think it begs
the question also,
1226
00:59:04,667 --> 00:59:07,933
if these UAPs are being
spotted around the world,
1227
00:59:07,967 --> 00:59:09,567
does that bolster
the theory that
1228
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:11,700
perhaps they're
extraterrestrials.
1229
00:59:11,733 --> 00:59:13,800
Joining us is Nick Pope.
1230
00:59:13,833 --> 00:59:15,776
Nick, let me ask you this,
these global sightings,
1231
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,100
are they largely similar?
1232
00:59:18,133 --> 00:59:19,733
There are similarities, yes.
1233
00:59:19,767 --> 00:59:23,333
Um, in shape, in
sudden accelerations,
1234
00:59:23,367 --> 00:59:26,167
in the ability to go
through the sound barrier
1235
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:27,233
with no sonic boom.
1236
00:59:27,267 --> 00:59:28,900
I mean, this is a
global phenomenon.
1237
00:59:28,933 --> 00:59:30,567
Everything I know from
my government work
1238
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,900
tells me there are
sightings around the world,
1239
00:59:32,933 --> 00:59:37,100
programs usually embedded
in DODs and air forces,
1240
00:59:37,133 --> 00:59:39,067
and if anyone says, as
skeptics occasionally do
1241
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:40,833
why aren't there any sightings
1242
00:59:40,867 --> 00:59:42,467
in this country or that country,
1243
00:59:42,500 --> 00:59:44,500
it's usually because
the politics,
1244
00:59:44,533 --> 00:59:45,933
the language, the culture.
1245
00:59:45,967 --> 00:59:48,533
The sightings are there, we're
just not hearing about them.
1246
00:59:48,567 --> 00:59:51,300
You know, one of the
most mind boggling
1247
00:59:51,333 --> 00:59:53,600
international sightings
that I've ever seen
1248
00:59:53,633 --> 00:59:55,667
is this sighting from...
from Puerto Rico.
1249
00:59:55,700 --> 00:59:56,700
Take a look at this.
1250
00:59:58,867 --> 01:00:02,000
We have this incident where we
have this object is being tracked
1251
01:00:02,033 --> 01:00:03,500
and it is flying along.
1252
01:00:03,533 --> 01:00:06,833
Jeremy, tell us a little bit
about what's going to happen here.
1253
01:00:06,867 --> 01:00:09,700
[Jeremy] Well, what you see is
like a trans medium vehicle.
1254
01:00:09,733 --> 01:00:12,833
It's a vehicle that goes from
the air through the water
1255
01:00:12,867 --> 01:00:15,067
without decelerating at all.
1256
01:00:15,100 --> 01:00:16,933
It also at one
point splits in two.
1257
01:00:16,967 --> 01:00:18,967
And this was filmed
by the, uh...
1258
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,600
Homeland Security was the
original place it was filmed from.
1259
01:00:21,633 --> 01:00:24,600
So, it's a pretty astounding
piece of clear footage.
1260
01:00:24,633 --> 01:00:28,500
[Josh] This moment where it appears
to beak in two, though right here,
1261
01:00:28,533 --> 01:00:29,900
this is really astounding.
1262
01:00:29,933 --> 01:00:32,533
The object literally...
It's like a magic trick.
1263
01:00:32,567 --> 01:00:34,833
We have this one object
that suddenly becomes
1264
01:00:34,867 --> 01:00:37,667
two objects just in
the blink of an eye.
1265
01:00:37,700 --> 01:00:39,000
[Jeremy] It was highly studied
1266
01:00:39,033 --> 01:00:40,743
and the fact that it
moves through the water
1267
01:00:40,767 --> 01:00:43,000
without deceleration
that again shows that
1268
01:00:43,033 --> 01:00:46,067
trans medium characteristic
that UFOs are known for.
1269
01:00:46,100 --> 01:00:48,143
Because most objects that are
travelling at a high speed,
1270
01:00:48,167 --> 01:00:50,567
that are aerial, they hit
the water, it over right?
1271
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,133
They slow down, they stop.
1272
01:00:52,167 --> 01:00:53,900
There's a huge amount
of drag and friction.
1273
01:00:53,933 --> 01:00:55,433
This thing keeps going.
1274
01:00:55,467 --> 01:00:58,700
That's right. And that's due most
likely to the propulsion system itself.
1275
01:00:58,733 --> 01:01:02,300
Any evidence this footage
could be doctored?
1276
01:01:02,333 --> 01:01:04,233
This footage? No.
1277
01:01:04,267 --> 01:01:06,143
- [Josh] Do you see any evidence of that George?
- [George] No.
1278
01:01:06,167 --> 01:01:08,833
The STU, a really
reputable organization,
1279
01:01:08,867 --> 01:01:10,800
they did an analysis of
this over several months,
1280
01:01:10,833 --> 01:01:12,533
they studied every frame of it,
1281
01:01:12,567 --> 01:01:14,043
they believe it to be legitimate
1282
01:01:14,067 --> 01:01:15,767
and they don't
have an explanation
1283
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,933
for how one object
splits into two,
1284
01:01:17,967 --> 01:01:21,633
and they're both still flying under
some controlled circumstances.
1285
01:01:21,667 --> 01:01:23,376
You know, one of the things
here in the Unites States,
1286
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:24,909
historically has been
that our government
1287
01:01:24,933 --> 01:01:28,200
has been tight lipped
about UFO activity.
1288
01:01:28,233 --> 01:01:30,733
I'm curious, as we talk
about these global sightings,
1289
01:01:30,767 --> 01:01:33,200
how is this handled in other
countries around the world?
1290
01:01:33,233 --> 01:01:35,800
Most of them seem to follow
the United States model.
1291
01:01:35,833 --> 01:01:37,167
Our allies certainly
follow that.
1292
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:39,467
I think the UK takes
its cues from the US.
1293
01:01:39,500 --> 01:01:41,833
That they say one
thing behind the scenes
1294
01:01:41,867 --> 01:01:43,733
scenes and something
else to the public.
1295
01:01:43,767 --> 01:01:45,109
That certainly was
true for Russia.
1296
01:01:45,133 --> 01:01:47,600
They told their
people for decades,
1297
01:01:47,633 --> 01:01:49,167
that this was a capitalist plot.
1298
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,133
Pay no attention to these UFOs.
1299
01:01:51,167 --> 01:01:52,867
Behind the scenes
they were studying it,
1300
01:01:52,900 --> 01:01:54,176
- for very practical reasons...
- [Josh] Right.
1301
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,043
Trying to figure out
how to make their own.
1302
01:01:56,067 --> 01:01:58,367
One of the things I saw, I
went to Chile a few years ago,
1303
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,567
and they had a program there that was
actually quite open to the public.
1304
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:03,433
They were encouraging
people to come forward,
1305
01:02:03,467 --> 01:02:05,067
encouraging pilots
to come forward.
1306
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:07,900
I think whether you're
a believer or skeptic,
1307
01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:10,800
just for the sake
of national security
1308
01:02:10,833 --> 01:02:12,833
or the sake of anybody
who gets in an airplane,
1309
01:02:12,867 --> 01:02:15,600
surely there's got to be real
value to encouraging people
1310
01:02:15,633 --> 01:02:16,567
to report these things.
1311
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:17,433
Here's the thing,
1312
01:02:17,467 --> 01:02:19,233
we're in a race for
this technology.
1313
01:02:19,267 --> 01:02:21,333
United States wants
it. UK wants it.
1314
01:02:21,367 --> 01:02:22,933
Russia wants it. China wants it.
1315
01:02:22,967 --> 01:02:26,567
And the first nation to
figure this stuff out wins.
1316
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:28,609
All right, well, thank you
everybody, very informative.
1317
01:02:28,633 --> 01:02:30,167
Coming up, our panel of experts
1318
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:32,467
will be breaking
down more key videos
1319
01:02:32,500 --> 01:02:34,767
as we debate whether
these UAPs are
1320
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:36,933
adversaries, extraterrestrials
1321
01:02:36,967 --> 01:02:38,467
or something else entirely.
1322
01:02:38,500 --> 01:02:40,700
And later in the show, we
are going to learn about
1323
01:02:40,733 --> 01:02:43,600
arguably the most
groundbreaking cosmic discovery
1324
01:02:43,633 --> 01:02:44,967
of the century.
1325
01:02:45,067 --> 01:02:48,100
Plus we'll hear more from the
producer and creator of The X-Files.

[Josh] Welcome back to
UFOs Declassified Live.
1329
01:03:21,700 --> 01:03:23,043
Looking at our twitter poll,
1330
01:03:23,067 --> 01:03:26,433
a whopping 89.4% of you
1331
01:03:26,467 --> 01:03:30,067
believe that there is life
outside our solar system.
1332
01:03:30,100 --> 01:03:32,043
We're winning over
hearts and minds tonight.
1333
01:03:32,067 --> 01:03:34,043
Uh, welcome back to the
show. I'm Josh Gates.
1334
01:03:34,067 --> 01:03:36,043
We are getting closer
to the final verdict
1335
01:03:36,067 --> 01:03:38,500
on the Pentagon's
groundbreaking report.
1336
01:03:38,533 --> 01:03:41,567
Bow this next piece of
footage checks a lot of boxes.
1337
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,533
In 2015, on the USS
Theodore Roosevelt,
1338
01:03:44,567 --> 01:03:47,167
the navy captured what's
come to be known as.
1339
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,333
"Go fast" video, off
the coast of Florida.
1340
01:03:50,367 --> 01:03:51,433
Check this out.[
1341
01:04:02,733 --> 01:04:04,043
[indistinct radio chatter]
1342
01:04:04,067 --> 01:04:06,667
[man] Whoa! Got him. [Laughing]
1343
01:04:06,700 --> 01:04:08,800
- Whoo-hoo.
- [man 2] Roger...
1344
01:04:08,833 --> 01:04:11,133
Are you [bleep] see in this?
1345
01:04:11,167 --> 01:04:12,700
What is that?
1346
01:04:12,733 --> 01:04:14,133
Can you track? It's
a moving target.
1347
01:04:15,067 --> 01:04:16,243
[man 2] No, I took an autotrack.
1348
01:04:16,267 --> 01:04:17,900
[man 2] Oh, okay.
1349
01:04:17,933 --> 01:04:20,200
Oh, my gosh, dude. Wow.
1350
01:04:20,233 --> 01:04:22,333
- [man 2] What is that?
- Look at it fly!
1351
01:04:22,367 --> 01:04:23,633
[laughing]
1352
01:04:26,167 --> 01:04:27,967
All right. Well, joining
us on the panel now
1353
01:04:28,067 --> 01:04:31,043
is former director of the CIA
office of technical service.
1354
01:04:31,067 --> 01:04:32,900
Please welcome, Bob
Wallace. How are you, sir?
1355
01:04:32,933 --> 01:04:34,173
It's an honor to be here, Josh.
1356
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:35,767
Well, it's an honor
to have you here.
1357
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:37,233
Uh, you know, let's
start with this.
1358
01:04:37,267 --> 01:04:38,567
What... what is the likelihood
1359
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,967
that a foreign adversary
would be developing
1360
01:04:41,067 --> 01:04:43,933
technology like this
without the US knowing it.
1361
01:04:43,967 --> 01:04:47,233
Josh, if we were doing our
job, we would know it. Right?
1362
01:04:47,267 --> 01:04:49,933
That's... That's the whole
purpose of intelligence.
1363
01:04:49,967 --> 01:04:52,533
It's, uh, find out what
the adversary is doing,
1364
01:04:52,567 --> 01:04:55,533
find it out soon
and get it to people
1365
01:04:55,567 --> 01:04:56,767
who can make the decision.
1366
01:04:56,800 --> 01:05:00,900
Now, with respect to
UAPs specifically,
1367
01:05:00,933 --> 01:05:03,900
if I could use this
illustration...
1368
01:05:03,933 --> 01:05:08,833
Uh, this piece of paper
represents all possible
1369
01:05:08,867 --> 01:05:11,800
information about UAPs.
1370
01:05:11,833 --> 01:05:16,043
Okay. This dot
represents what we know.
1371
01:05:16,067 --> 01:05:20,043
So, I caution us against
being too arrogant.
1372
01:05:20,067 --> 01:05:21,200
Wow, amazing.
1373
01:05:21,233 --> 01:05:23,467
We really blew our budget on
that visual aid there too.
1374
01:05:23,500 --> 01:05:25,833
But I take your point. We
don't know much at this point.
1375
01:05:25,867 --> 01:05:27,367
There's a lot we don't know.
1376
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,043
Uh, so, okay, we've got
eyewitness testimony.
1377
01:05:30,067 --> 01:05:31,800
We've got video.
We've got radar.
1378
01:05:31,833 --> 01:05:34,267
We've got movement. We've got
propulsion in this last video.
1379
01:05:34,300 --> 01:05:36,933
I mean, this one seems
to check all the boxes.
1380
01:05:36,967 --> 01:05:40,567
I turn now to Tracy, our
resident fighter pilot here.
1381
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,967
What do you make of
the "Go fast" video?
1382
01:05:43,067 --> 01:05:44,233
What jumps out at you?
1383
01:05:44,267 --> 01:05:46,500
I think the video is incredible.
1384
01:05:46,533 --> 01:05:48,633
As fighter pilots we
think that we're fast,
1385
01:05:48,667 --> 01:05:51,900
but this object looks like
it is going super-fast.
1386
01:05:51,933 --> 01:05:53,733
So, that's what I
wanna talk about here.
1387
01:05:53,767 --> 01:05:56,333
Compare it for me
to a fighter jet,
1388
01:05:56,367 --> 01:05:59,667
you know, how difficult is it to
even track an object like this?
1389
01:05:59,700 --> 01:06:01,809
Well, you can see it looks like
they're working pretty hard
1390
01:06:01,833 --> 01:06:03,043
to get a lock.
1391
01:06:03,067 --> 01:06:07,133
And at first glance we might
think that it's many objects
1392
01:06:07,167 --> 01:06:09,267
going across that
particular screen.
1393
01:06:09,300 --> 01:06:12,967
But when I look closer, it looks
like they're trying to grab it
1394
01:06:13,067 --> 01:06:14,233
and then it breaks lock,
1395
01:06:14,267 --> 01:06:15,967
and then the radar slews black,
1396
01:06:16,067 --> 01:06:18,267
and they try again, breaks
lock and slews back.
1397
01:06:18,300 --> 01:06:22,433
And then eventually,
it's able to bind
1398
01:06:22,467 --> 01:06:24,700
around the object and you can
hear the Wizzo saying that
1399
01:06:24,733 --> 01:06:27,800
he went to auto...
auto track mode
1400
01:06:27,833 --> 01:06:29,233
to auto slew onto it.
1401
01:06:29,267 --> 01:06:31,400
Right. And I love asking
you this question.
1402
01:06:31,433 --> 01:06:33,133
Have you ever seen
anything like this?
1403
01:06:33,167 --> 01:06:35,433
I have never seen
anything like this.
1404
01:06:35,467 --> 01:06:38,833
I love hearing that, you know,
because you know, you are the one
1405
01:06:38,867 --> 01:06:41,043
up there that should be
able to identify this stuff.
1406
01:06:41,067 --> 01:06:44,500
And it's so mind bending when we
hear that we don't know what this is.
1407
01:06:44,533 --> 01:06:47,043
George, how important
was this video,
1408
01:06:47,067 --> 01:06:48,900
to the compiling of
the Pentagon report?
1409
01:06:48,933 --> 01:06:50,533
Well, it's another
brick in the wall.
1410
01:06:50,567 --> 01:06:52,400
You'll recall the "Tic
Tac" was the first one
1411
01:06:52,433 --> 01:06:53,576
that was officially released,
1412
01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,567
and that the New York
times reported on,
1413
01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:57,167
then Gimbal, then Go fast.
1414
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,533
And uh, taken altogether,
1415
01:06:59,567 --> 01:07:03,300
it certainly paints a picture that
someone out there has got some technology
1416
01:07:03,333 --> 01:07:04,900
far beyond what we've got.
1417
01:07:04,933 --> 01:07:06,509
All right, I want to
understand this video
1418
01:07:06,533 --> 01:07:07,433
a little bit more.
1419
01:07:07,467 --> 01:07:09,167
So, let's check in
with Jessica and Dr. O
1420
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:12,800
to bring us up to speed on
propulsion and movement. Jess.
1421
01:07:12,833 --> 01:07:15,800
Thanks, Josh. Dr. O, we're
throwing around a lot of words
1422
01:07:15,833 --> 01:07:16,933
that aren't everyday terms.
1423
01:07:16,967 --> 01:07:19,500
So, let's start with g-force.
1424
01:07:19,533 --> 01:07:23,133
For example, traditional
known vehicles versus the UAPs
1425
01:07:23,167 --> 01:07:25,043
that we've been seeing,
a la the "Tic Tac."
1426
01:07:25,067 --> 01:07:27,300
What is g-force, exactly?
1427
01:07:27,333 --> 01:07:30,333
So, when a body... If
you're in a vehicle,
1428
01:07:30,367 --> 01:07:32,067
- and it changes direction...
- Yeah.
1429
01:07:32,100 --> 01:07:34,043
If it speeds up or slows down,
1430
01:07:34,067 --> 01:07:36,400
you will feel what
is like a force.
1431
01:07:36,433 --> 01:07:40,133
And that is due to a change
in your state of motion,
1432
01:07:40,167 --> 01:07:41,633
and we call that acceleration.
1433
01:07:41,667 --> 01:07:43,567
So, we look at a race car.
1434
01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:47,133
It has a top speed of
246-miles-per-hour.
1435
01:07:47,167 --> 01:07:49,067
But if the car is going
at a constant speed,
1436
01:07:49,100 --> 01:07:50,500
it's not accelerating.
1437
01:07:50,533 --> 01:07:53,267
So, it doesn't matter how fast
you're going, you don't feel forces.
1438
01:07:53,300 --> 01:07:54,600
But if it accelerates,
1439
01:07:54,633 --> 01:07:58,100
- and this accelerates 6gs, you feel the force.
- I see.
1440
01:07:58,133 --> 01:08:01,433
So, a g is a gravity equivalent.
1441
01:08:01,467 --> 01:08:05,233
So a person in this vehicle will
feel six times their own weight
1442
01:08:05,267 --> 01:08:06,533
pressing on them.
1443
01:08:06,567 --> 01:08:08,600
If you're in a F-117,
1444
01:08:08,633 --> 01:08:12,043
it's top speed is
684 miles per hour.
1445
01:08:12,067 --> 01:08:15,367
But it's top
acceleration is 9gs.
1446
01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:19,200
That means the pilot will feel
nine times their own body weight.
1447
01:08:19,233 --> 01:08:21,833
And you can only survive
that a short time.
1448
01:08:21,867 --> 01:08:25,267
Really? So, zero to nine,
that's what's gonna hit you.
1449
01:08:25,300 --> 01:08:26,543
- That's what you're gonna feel.
- Oh, yeah.
1450
01:08:26,567 --> 01:08:28,043
When you're in a car
that goes really fast
1451
01:08:28,067 --> 01:08:29,176
you get pushed back
in your seat...
1452
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:30,533
- Yeah.
- That's a g-force.
1453
01:08:30,567 --> 01:08:33,233
That's an acceleration
creating a force on your body.
1454
01:08:33,267 --> 01:08:35,633
Now we talk about an F-16.
1455
01:08:35,667 --> 01:08:37,043
- Mmm-hmm.
- Look at that top speed.
1456
01:08:37,067 --> 01:08:39,043
1,500-miles-per-hour.
1457
01:08:39,067 --> 01:08:43,233
Much faster than the F-17 but
the same maximum acceleration.
1458
01:08:43,267 --> 01:08:44,044
- Okay.
- Right?
1459
01:08:44,068 --> 01:08:45,467
So inside your body
1460
01:08:45,500 --> 01:08:48,933
your body is designed to
be upright in gravity.
1461
01:08:48,967 --> 01:08:51,433
So, that determines
where blood goes.
1462
01:08:51,467 --> 01:08:53,043
And so, if you
accelerate too fast
1463
01:08:53,067 --> 01:08:54,543
it's going to go where
it's not supposed to.
1464
01:08:54,567 --> 01:08:56,833
So, then, how many
gs can the human body
1465
01:08:56,867 --> 01:09:00,267
withstand before it can't
withstand it anymore?
1466
01:09:00,300 --> 01:09:03,300
It depends. It's a
matter of the g-force
1467
01:09:03,333 --> 01:09:06,467
and the amount of time you
experience that g-force.
1468
01:09:06,500 --> 01:09:07,400
Mmm-hmm.
1469
01:09:07,433 --> 01:09:09,043
So... And it also
depends on your training.
1470
01:09:09,067 --> 01:09:10,833
So, a fighter
pilot, for example,
1471
01:09:10,867 --> 01:09:13,400
may hit 9 gs over the
course of their career
1472
01:09:13,433 --> 01:09:14,733
over and over and over again.
1473
01:09:14,767 --> 01:09:16,967
But, you know, regular
people like you and me,
1474
01:09:17,067 --> 01:09:18,767
who are untrained...
1475
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,100
Well, I could survive it but
the average person couldn't.
1476
01:09:21,133 --> 01:09:23,633
Well, I almost passed out
on The Mummy ride at...
1477
01:09:23,667 --> 01:09:25,643
- You know, it's fine. I wouldn't make it.
- Might've been fear.
1478
01:09:25,667 --> 01:09:27,533
It... it was
definitely that too.
1479
01:09:27,567 --> 01:09:29,400
So how does this all
compare with the Tic Tac?
1480
01:09:29,433 --> 01:09:30,967
Now, what we have...
1481
01:09:31,067 --> 01:09:33,500
If we take these
videos at face value,
1482
01:09:33,533 --> 01:09:35,667
and say this is a vehicle,
1483
01:09:35,700 --> 01:09:38,043
that's changing
speed this rapidly,
1484
01:09:38,067 --> 01:09:39,300
that gives us data.
1485
01:09:39,333 --> 01:09:40,667
'Cause look at those g-forces.
1486
01:09:40,700 --> 01:09:42,433
- Yeah.
- Five thousand.
1487
01:09:42,467 --> 01:09:44,267
No living creature, that we know
1488
01:09:44,300 --> 01:09:47,433
that's macroscopic like
ourselves could survive that.
1489
01:09:47,467 --> 01:09:50,433
So, that would say that if
we take it at face value,
1490
01:09:50,467 --> 01:09:52,400
is there a being inside there,
1491
01:09:52,433 --> 01:09:54,467
and if there is, what
is the trick that
1492
01:09:54,500 --> 01:09:55,576
- allows them to survive.
- Yeah.
1493
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:57,767
Or maybe it's their drone,
or maybe it's a droid,
1494
01:09:57,800 --> 01:09:59,533
- a robot, who know.
- Exactly.
1495
01:09:59,567 --> 01:10:01,667
- Interesting. Excellent.
- Thank you.
1496
01:10:01,700 --> 01:10:03,733
- So much fun to talk with you Dr. O.
- Yes.
1497
01:10:03,767 --> 01:10:04,967
Josh.
1498
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:06,900
Well, thanks very much,
Jessica and Dr. O.
1499
01:10:06,933 --> 01:10:11,167
Let's see what our followers on
Twitter have to say at this point.
1500
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:12,767
Uh, HOOV says,
1501
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:15,433
the public deserves
to know the truth.
1502
01:10:15,467 --> 01:10:17,100
UFOsDeclassifiedLIVE.
1503
01:10:17,133 --> 01:10:18,767
I agree. That's what
we're doing here.
1504
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:20,333
Talking about this report.
1505
01:10:20,367 --> 01:10:23,309
And important to know there is actually
a classified version of this report
1506
01:10:23,333 --> 01:10:25,843
and I agree with you. The public
does deserve to know what's in it.
1507
01:10:25,867 --> 01:10:27,800
Uh, Jenner2112 writes,
1508
01:10:27,833 --> 01:10:31,667
"The fact that so many UFOs
are witnessed around military,
1509
01:10:31,700 --> 01:10:34,433
maybe they're trying to get
them to stop doing something."
1510
01:10:34,467 --> 01:10:35,867
Interesting idea.
1511
01:10:35,900 --> 01:10:37,567
That maybe they're
not here to hurt us,
1512
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:39,267
they're here to protect us.
1513
01:10:39,300 --> 01:10:41,733
Kind of a Day The Earth
Stood Still point of view.
1514
01:10:41,767 --> 01:10:43,400
And then Random Bits says,
1515
01:10:43,433 --> 01:10:45,833
"UFOsdeclassifiedlive.
Josh is wearing a suit?
1516
01:10:45,867 --> 01:10:47,233
Is he the alien?"
1517
01:10:47,267 --> 01:10:49,543
- That's, that's right. You found me out. It's me.
- [crew laugh]
1518
01:10:49,567 --> 01:10:51,667
Listen, I wish I could wear
this suit all the time,
1519
01:10:51,700 --> 01:10:54,076
uh, but you try crawling through
an Egyptian tomb wearing this.
1520
01:10:54,100 --> 01:10:55,567
It's not pretty.
1521
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,333
Uh, anyway, be sure to
rocket your tweets our way
1522
01:10:58,367 --> 01:11:02,367
using the hashtag
ufosdeclassifiedlive.
1523
01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:06,200
Coming up we have got more
authenticated UAP video
1524
01:11:06,233 --> 01:11:07,776
and I will be speaking,
this is a big one,
1525
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:10,267
with the head of
NASA, Bill Nelson.
1526
01:11:10,300 --> 01:11:12,167
Then we'll look at the discovery
1527
01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:13,867
that may answer the question,
1528
01:11:13,900 --> 01:11:16,500
is there life outside
our solar system?
1529
01:11:16,533 --> 01:11:19,233
When UFOs Declassified:
Live continues.
1530
01:11:35,667 --> 01:11:39,667
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: Live.
1531
01:11:39,700 --> 01:11:42,400
I'm Josh Gates. I just found
out we are the number three
1532
01:11:42,433 --> 01:11:44,533
trending topic on Twitter.
1533
01:11:44,567 --> 01:11:46,133
Please keep those tweets coming.
1534
01:11:46,167 --> 01:11:48,567
If we get to number one, they're
gonna let me keep the suit.
1535
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:51,700
Uh, before the break we're
discussing the mind altering
1536
01:11:51,733 --> 01:11:54,500
go fast UFO footage taken aboard
1537
01:11:54,533 --> 01:11:58,043
a navy jet fighter from
the USS Theodore Roosevelt
1538
01:11:58,067 --> 01:12:00,300
off the Florida coast in 2015.
1539
01:12:00,333 --> 01:12:03,633
Now, this next UAP
was caught on camera
1540
01:12:03,667 --> 01:12:06,567
in the same year from
near the same location.
1541
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:08,467
Check out the motion
of this craft.
1542
01:12:08,500 --> 01:12:10,600
This is the Gimbal UFO.
1543
01:12:12,667 --> 01:12:14,900
[pilot 1] It is a
[bleep] drone, bro.
1544
01:12:16,333 --> 01:12:18,573
[pilot 2] There's a whole
fleet of them. Look on the ASA.
1545
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,067
[pilot 1] My gosh!
1546
01:12:22,500 --> 01:12:24,043
They're all going
against the wind.
1547
01:12:24,067 --> 01:12:26,043
The wind's 120 knots
out of the west.
1548
01:12:26,067 --> 01:12:27,633
Look at that thing, dude.
1549
01:12:36,567 --> 01:12:38,076
That's not an [inaudible]
though, is it?
1550
01:12:38,100 --> 01:12:40,167
[pilot 2] That's not
one of ours, is it?
1551
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,309
[pilot 1] Well, if there's a...
[pilot 2] Look at that thing!
1552
01:12:42,333 --> 01:12:44,067
It's rotating.
1553
01:12:45,767 --> 01:12:49,067
Well, joining Jeremy, George
and Bob on the panel is
1554
01:12:49,100 --> 01:12:52,400
- our resident astrophysicist, Dr. O. Good to see you.
- Thank you, sir.
1555
01:12:52,433 --> 01:12:54,209
- Bringing some science to the desk.
- That's right.
1556
01:12:54,233 --> 01:12:55,633
Okay, let's talk about this,
1557
01:12:55,667 --> 01:12:58,633
What's your first thought
upon seeing this Gimbal video?
1558
01:12:58,667 --> 01:13:00,600
Well, I'm trained
as a physicist.
1559
01:13:00,633 --> 01:13:03,967
So when I see any data, my first
thought is, "I don't believe it."
1560
01:13:04,067 --> 01:13:06,209
- [Josh laughs] Skeptical.
- Right. I don't take it at face value.
1561
01:13:06,233 --> 01:13:08,333
We have to take the data
1562
01:13:08,367 --> 01:13:10,900
and validate it and
then make scientific
1563
01:13:10,933 --> 01:13:12,900
measurements that are
actually rigorous.
1564
01:13:12,933 --> 01:13:15,967
So I don't have this
data in my possession
1565
01:13:16,067 --> 01:13:17,867
and so I can't really
say anything about it
1566
01:13:17,900 --> 01:13:19,900
'cause I haven't taken
it through that process.
1567
01:13:19,933 --> 01:13:21,300
Do you think we can explain
1568
01:13:21,333 --> 01:13:24,567
just looking at it, how this
craft moves and rotates?
1569
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:27,600
You know, it's difficult
to do to disentangle
1570
01:13:27,633 --> 01:13:29,767
because you have many
moving things at one time.
1571
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:31,267
You have the moving object.
1572
01:13:31,300 --> 01:13:34,867
You have the moving plane or
whatever platform is taking the data.
1573
01:13:34,900 --> 01:13:36,533
And quite often if
you're locking on
1574
01:13:36,567 --> 01:13:39,043
that means that you have
something else moving separate
1575
01:13:39,067 --> 01:13:42,067
from the actual vehicle
that it's mounted on.
1576
01:13:42,100 --> 01:13:45,300
So, you have to disentangle all
this stuff and it's complicated.
1577
01:13:45,333 --> 01:13:47,267
But if you take it at face value
1578
01:13:47,300 --> 01:13:48,700
as I said before,
1579
01:13:48,733 --> 01:13:50,700
you see some interesting
aerodynamics.
1580
01:13:50,733 --> 01:13:53,533
Absolutely. Now, Jeremy, on
the clip we hear a voice say,
1581
01:13:53,567 --> 01:13:55,700
"There's a whole fleet of them."
1582
01:13:55,733 --> 01:13:58,043
Now is that just
eyewitness saying that?
1583
01:13:58,067 --> 01:13:59,633
Do we have data to back that up?
1584
01:13:59,667 --> 01:14:02,409
Yeah, absolutely. But a lot of it is
gonna be classified and not gonna come up.
1585
01:14:02,433 --> 01:14:04,533
But I can tell you
with 100% certainty,
1586
01:14:04,567 --> 01:14:05,943
and some people have
been exposed to it.
1587
01:14:05,967 --> 01:14:07,400
There was a fleet
in front of this.
1588
01:14:07,433 --> 01:14:09,476
And, by the way, this
object... Listen to the pilots.
1589
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:11,233
They have got some
of our best sensors.
1590
01:14:11,267 --> 01:14:12,800
It's moving against the wind.
1591
01:14:12,833 --> 01:14:14,800
It's rotating. You can
hear what they say.
1592
01:14:14,833 --> 01:14:16,300
But there were
other objects that
1593
01:14:16,333 --> 01:14:18,833
were with the Gimbal and the
Gimbal has unique propulsion
1594
01:14:18,867 --> 01:14:20,467
as it goes forward, changes
1595
01:14:20,500 --> 01:14:22,433
and starts to reverse
direction in the end.
1596
01:14:22,467 --> 01:14:25,567
Bob, any chance what we're
looking at here could be fake,
1597
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:26,800
do you think?
1598
01:14:26,833 --> 01:14:29,500
Absolutely, there's a chance.
I think it's a small chance.
1599
01:14:29,533 --> 01:14:33,700
Now, this comes from credible
sources, credible sensors.
1600
01:14:33,733 --> 01:14:37,200
So, the video itself, I think,
1601
01:14:37,233 --> 01:14:39,043
authentic, absolutely.
1602
01:14:39,067 --> 01:14:42,667
Now what it means is
a different question.
1603
01:14:42,700 --> 01:14:44,043
I'd like to say
1604
01:14:44,067 --> 01:14:47,300
I've seen the rabbit come
out of the hat many times.
1605
01:14:47,333 --> 01:14:49,367
And is the rabbit in the hat?
1606
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:52,300
It depends where you're
sitting in the audience
1607
01:14:52,333 --> 01:14:54,500
to know whether the
rabbit's in the hat or not.
1608
01:14:54,533 --> 01:14:57,433
George, how important
was this Gimbal footage
1609
01:14:57,467 --> 01:15:00,167
- to the Pentagon report?
- Oh, it was hugely important.
1610
01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:02,267
I mean, you know,
like Dr. O said
1611
01:15:02,300 --> 01:15:03,800
we don't have a lot of the data.
1612
01:15:03,833 --> 01:15:05,700
We don't have the object
itself to examine.
1613
01:15:05,733 --> 01:15:08,200
There is signals data
and sensor data that
1614
01:15:08,233 --> 01:15:11,043
as Jeremey said we're probably
never gonna get to see.
1615
01:15:11,067 --> 01:15:13,367
But what we don't
see in that is wings
1616
01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:15,733
or rotors or any kind of
known propulsion system.
1617
01:15:15,767 --> 01:15:18,833
We don't see any chemical kind of a
trail coming out of the back of it.
1618
01:15:18,867 --> 01:15:21,043
How does that thing stay
up? How does it fly?
1619
01:15:21,067 --> 01:15:23,200
All right. Also I think, for me,
1620
01:15:23,233 --> 01:15:26,833
just the enthusiasm that you
hear in the pilots' voices.
1621
01:15:26,867 --> 01:15:29,333
I mean, they are just agog
looking at this thing.
1622
01:15:29,367 --> 01:15:31,200
To me that is really
compelling here as well.
1623
01:15:31,233 --> 01:15:33,667
You've just got... You know,
these guys are freaking out.
1624
01:15:33,700 --> 01:15:35,533
This is something they
had not seen before.
1625
01:15:35,567 --> 01:15:39,067
They were starting to see UFOs on
a daily basis on the east coast.
1626
01:15:39,100 --> 01:15:41,767
Cubes. Cubes with
spheres around them.
1627
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:44,067
Things are completely
non-aerodynamic.
1628
01:15:44,100 --> 01:15:47,200
This is one representation of
many sightings and encounters.
1629
01:15:47,233 --> 01:15:49,900
All right. So speaking of pilots
like we hear in this video,
1630
01:15:49,933 --> 01:15:52,900
let's check in with Jessica
and our resident fighter pilot
1631
01:15:52,933 --> 01:15:57,043
Tracy LaTourrette for a closer
look at the Gimbal UFO. Jessica?
1632
01:15:57,067 --> 01:15:59,567
Thank you, Josh. Tracy,
on the Gimbal footage
1633
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:02,567
there is so much going on with
the numbers and the initials
1634
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,433
that it's hard to know
what to actually focus on.
1635
01:16:05,467 --> 01:16:08,633
So, what are the most important
elements of this video?
1636
01:16:08,667 --> 01:16:10,767
Well, there's... We
could talk all day on
1637
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:12,176
- what we're looking at here.
- Mmm-hmm.
1638
01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,967
But if you look at
the image itself,
1639
01:16:16,067 --> 01:16:18,600
the fact that we're able to
actually lock onto something
1640
01:16:18,633 --> 01:16:21,900
tells me that it's not just a
light phenomenon or something.
1641
01:16:21,933 --> 01:16:24,533
So, obviously there is
something very interesting there
1642
01:16:24,567 --> 01:16:27,533
and obviously it's hot because
we're in black hot mode.
1643
01:16:27,567 --> 01:16:30,733
Uh, if you look at the
aspect of the object
1644
01:16:30,767 --> 01:16:35,600
it could suggest a tail
aspect of an aircraft.
1645
01:16:35,633 --> 01:16:38,967
Although, you know,
that's debatable as well
1646
01:16:39,067 --> 01:16:41,967
because it might be shaped a little
bit differently looking at the back.
1647
01:16:42,067 --> 01:16:44,067
Okay, so as if it was
traveling away from us.
1648
01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:45,767
- Mmm-hmm.
- Understood.
1649
01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:48,733
Right, and then, finally, you hear
them talking about the fact that
1650
01:16:48,767 --> 01:16:51,100
- it appears to actually rotate.
- Mmm-hmm.
1651
01:16:51,133 --> 01:16:53,300
That suggests not only awareness
1652
01:16:53,333 --> 01:16:56,667
but gives some indication
of potential intent
1653
01:16:56,700 --> 01:16:59,067
because it looks like
it's just observing
1654
01:16:59,100 --> 01:17:02,733
and luckily not showing us
any kind of hostile intent.
1655
01:17:02,767 --> 01:17:05,433
- So, that's a good thing.
- That's scary.
1656
01:17:05,467 --> 01:17:07,467
Well, you always have
to think about that.
1657
01:17:07,500 --> 01:17:09,800
- Is this thing trying to kill me?
- Yeah. Well, yeah.
1658
01:17:09,833 --> 01:17:11,667
- [Tracy chuckles]
- Yeah. Okay.
1659
01:17:11,700 --> 01:17:13,700
Uh, awesome. [Laughs]
1660
01:17:13,733 --> 01:17:15,233
That was a good
talk. Awesome, Tracy.
1661
01:17:15,267 --> 01:17:17,043
Back to you, Josh.
1662
01:17:17,067 --> 01:17:18,743
All right, well, thank
you, Jessica and Tracy.
1663
01:17:18,767 --> 01:17:21,467
When we come back, I'll be
speaking with former astronaut,
1664
01:17:21,500 --> 01:17:24,533
senators and NASA
administrator, Bill Nelson.
1665
01:17:24,567 --> 01:17:27,267
We'll also learn
what 'Oumuamua means.
1666
01:17:27,300 --> 01:17:28,700
I'm glad I can pronounce it.
1667
01:17:28,733 --> 01:17:31,067
And later, we've
got rare UAP footage
1668
01:17:31,100 --> 01:17:33,267
from the deck of the USS Omaha
1669
01:17:33,300 --> 01:17:35,933
that may help our panel of
experts reach their verdict.
1670
01:17:35,967 --> 01:17:38,267
Adversary, alien or neither?
1671
01:17:38,300 --> 01:17:40,500
During the break be sure
to hit us up on Twitter
1672
01:17:40,533 --> 01:17:44,267
using the hashtag
ufosdeclassifiedlive.
1673
01:18:00,533 --> 01:18:03,967
We are continuing to pour
over the Pentagon report
1674
01:18:04,067 --> 01:18:06,200
on unidentified
aerial phenomena.
1675
01:18:06,233 --> 01:18:09,867
As the report indicates, there
is not one blanket explanation
1676
01:18:09,900 --> 01:18:11,133
for all of them.
1677
01:18:11,167 --> 01:18:14,467
And that's why you are watching
UFOs Declassified: Live.
1678
01:18:14,500 --> 01:18:15,600
I'm Josh Gates.
1679
01:18:15,633 --> 01:18:17,700
At this time we are
honored to be joined by
1680
01:18:17,733 --> 01:18:19,167
the current head of NASA.
1681
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:22,933
He has flown in space and previously
served Florida in the senate.
1682
01:18:22,967 --> 01:18:24,767
Bill Nelson. Good
to see you, sir.
1683
01:18:25,900 --> 01:18:27,043
Hey.
1684
01:18:27,067 --> 01:18:28,733
It's great to see you
1685
01:18:28,767 --> 01:18:32,233
and I'm always ready
to talk about space.
1686
01:18:32,267 --> 01:18:33,700
Well, that's good. I'm glad.
1687
01:18:33,733 --> 01:18:36,233
We have a lot to talk about
with the release of this report.
1688
01:18:36,267 --> 01:18:38,467
Uh, obviously you've read it.
1689
01:18:38,500 --> 01:18:41,267
What do you think is the most
eye-opening aspect of this?
1690
01:18:43,100 --> 01:18:46,767
Well, I was briefed on this a
couple years ago in the senate
1691
01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:48,633
- armed services committee.
- Mmm-hmm.
1692
01:18:48,667 --> 01:18:53,100
And I had a chance to
talk to the navy pilots.
1693
01:18:53,133 --> 01:18:58,043
You've seen the video now
a number of times on TV.
1694
01:18:58,067 --> 01:19:01,333
They know that
they saw something.
1695
01:19:01,367 --> 01:19:04,700
They tracked it. They chased it.
1696
01:19:04,733 --> 01:19:08,100
And then all of a sudden it
would move from one location
1697
01:19:08,133 --> 01:19:11,767
to another in a split second.
1698
01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:16,900
Uh, now we know from
the unclassified report
1699
01:19:16,933 --> 01:19:21,200
that there have been over
140 of these sightings
1700
01:19:21,233 --> 01:19:23,567
around the globe.
1701
01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:27,267
And so from the
pilot's standpoint
1702
01:19:27,300 --> 01:19:30,267
they know they saw
something real.
1703
01:19:30,300 --> 01:19:33,533
- Right.
- Now we need to find out what It is.
1704
01:19:33,567 --> 01:19:36,167
So, that's why I've asked
the NASA scientists,
1705
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:40,043
look at it from a
scientific point of view
1706
01:19:40,067 --> 01:19:42,633
and let's see if you
come up with any answers.
1707
01:19:42,667 --> 01:19:44,133
And I think that's a good point.
1708
01:19:44,167 --> 01:19:47,067
There's an enormous amount of
credibility here in terms of
1709
01:19:47,100 --> 01:19:49,633
these pilots. In terms of
the people that witnessed
1710
01:19:49,667 --> 01:19:51,600
whatever these objects were.
1711
01:19:51,633 --> 01:19:53,967
If you take the
report at face value,
1712
01:19:54,067 --> 01:19:56,333
what do you think it says
about national security?
1713
01:19:58,233 --> 01:20:00,500
Well, we don't know.
1714
01:20:00,533 --> 01:20:03,700
Uh, we don't know
if it's something
1715
01:20:03,733 --> 01:20:07,433
out of this world
or if it is, uh,
1716
01:20:07,467 --> 01:20:10,033
a person that could... An entity
1717
01:20:10,067 --> 01:20:12,833
that could be a potential
adversary here on Earth.
1718
01:20:12,867 --> 01:20:15,800
- Right.
- Now, our government is saying
1719
01:20:15,833 --> 01:20:19,967
this is not any technology
that we are testing,
1720
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:23,300
uh, therefore we
ought to be concerned.
1721
01:20:23,333 --> 01:20:26,067
That's why we need to get
to the bottom of this.
1722
01:20:26,100 --> 01:20:30,000
Right. Now a lot of people are
speculating that these UAPs
1723
01:20:30,033 --> 01:20:31,533
could be extraterrestrial.
1724
01:20:31,567 --> 01:20:33,433
You yourself have
flown into space.
1725
01:20:33,467 --> 01:20:36,200
You were a payload specialist
during the shuttle program.
1726
01:20:36,233 --> 01:20:40,233
Do you personally believe that there
is extraterrestrial life out there?
1727
01:20:41,667 --> 01:20:43,467
Well, let's separate
the question.
1728
01:20:43,500 --> 01:20:47,700
Do I believe that
these objects are ETs?
1729
01:20:47,733 --> 01:20:50,600
Uh, the answer is I don't know.
1730
01:20:50,633 --> 01:20:53,567
- That's why we're asking the questions.
- Right.
1731
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:57,133
Your second question is
1732
01:20:57,167 --> 01:21:00,043
do I think that there's life
out there in the universe?
1733
01:21:00,067 --> 01:21:03,600
This is a universe that is
1734
01:21:03,633 --> 01:21:08,133
13.5 billion years old.
1735
01:21:09,267 --> 01:21:13,800
Uh, it is so vast we
cannot even imagine...
1736
01:21:13,833 --> 01:21:17,500
Our minds cannot
grasp the size of it.
1737
01:21:17,533 --> 01:21:19,667
Do I think that there's
1738
01:21:19,700 --> 01:21:23,567
another solar system
in another galaxy
1739
01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:26,133
with another sun with planets
1740
01:21:26,167 --> 01:21:28,133
revolving around it
1741
01:21:28,167 --> 01:21:32,043
that might have a planet
with a habitable atmosphere?
1742
01:21:32,067 --> 01:21:33,500
Of course, I do.
1743
01:21:33,533 --> 01:21:36,733
Do you think that this
particular report,
1744
01:21:36,767 --> 01:21:38,333
which was generated
by the Pentagon,
1745
01:21:38,367 --> 01:21:40,567
do you think that it
should be shifted to NASA?
1746
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,167
Should NASA have a
permanent responsibility to,
1747
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:46,043
you think, look into these
sightings and to continue
1748
01:21:46,067 --> 01:21:47,433
pursuing this question?
1749
01:21:48,733 --> 01:21:52,800
No. The Pentagon needs to
continue its defense function.
1750
01:21:52,833 --> 01:21:56,800
NASA needs to continue
its scientific function.
1751
01:21:56,833 --> 01:21:58,867
And that's exactly
what we're doing.
1752
01:21:58,900 --> 01:22:02,043
Terrific. Well, I can't wait
to see what the Webb Telescope
1753
01:22:02,067 --> 01:22:04,100
and what NASA has in store next.
1754
01:22:04,133 --> 01:22:06,043
Thank you so much for
your time with us today.
1755
01:22:06,067 --> 01:22:07,267
I really appreciate it, sir.
1756
01:22:08,233 --> 01:22:11,133
- Have a great day.
- All the best.
1757
01:22:11,167 --> 01:22:15,367
Well, so far tonight we have focused
on unidentified aerial phenomena.
1758
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:18,467
Right now, though, we're going to
shift our gaze to an identified
1759
01:22:18,500 --> 01:22:21,767
interstellar object that
may be an indicator of life
1760
01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:23,400
in other solar systems.
1761
01:22:23,433 --> 01:22:25,400
This startling
discovery was spotted
1762
01:22:25,433 --> 01:22:28,043
by Canadian astronomer
Robert Weryk
1763
01:22:28,067 --> 01:22:30,733
from the Haleakala
Observatory on Maui.
1764
01:22:30,767 --> 01:22:33,267
And since the object is
the first of its type,
1765
01:22:33,300 --> 01:22:36,467
it was named after the
Hawaiian word for scout.
1766
01:22:36,500 --> 01:22:38,567
This is 'Oumuamua.
1767
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:51,433
Some of us have actually been
predicting that interstellar objects
1768
01:22:51,467 --> 01:22:53,200
would come into
our solar system.
1769
01:22:53,233 --> 01:22:56,100
We've kind of been waiting
to see something like this.
1770
01:22:56,133 --> 01:22:58,100
[Robert Weryk]
The year was 2017.
1771
01:22:58,133 --> 01:23:01,067
I was reviewing detections
from the Pan-STARRS1 telescope
1772
01:23:01,100 --> 01:23:03,133
and I found what's now
known as 'Oumuamua.
1773
01:23:03,167 --> 01:23:04,700
This comet is very different
1774
01:23:04,733 --> 01:23:07,043
than all the comets that
we see on our solar system.
1775
01:23:07,067 --> 01:23:10,467
[Sarah Barker] We really expected if
we were to see an interstellar object
1776
01:23:10,500 --> 01:23:12,367
that it would look like a comet.
1777
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,767
'Oumuamua is at least
five, maybe even ten times
1778
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:18,043
longer than it is wide.
1779
01:23:18,067 --> 01:23:21,400
After 'Oumuamua was no longer
visible from ground based telescopes,
1780
01:23:21,433 --> 01:23:24,333
we got very accurate positional
information from Hubble.
1781
01:23:24,367 --> 01:23:28,933
And that allowed us to discover
this non-gravitational deviation.
1782
01:23:28,967 --> 01:23:31,933
'Oumuamua came in
at this crazy angle
1783
01:23:31,967 --> 01:23:35,233
and it was moving so fast.
1784
01:23:35,267 --> 01:23:37,867
Fifty-five miles per second.
1785
01:23:40,267 --> 01:23:42,800
[Robert] 'Oumuamua is some
kind of comet or asteroid.
1786
01:23:42,833 --> 01:23:45,833
No one can tell for
sure what 'Oumuamua was.
1787
01:23:45,867 --> 01:23:48,633
[Nick Pope] This
could be a probe.
1788
01:23:48,667 --> 01:23:53,400
A civilization with millions and
millions of years head start on us
1789
01:23:53,433 --> 01:23:57,500
could have built
hundreds of these probes
1790
01:23:57,533 --> 01:24:00,533
and just let them loose
throughout the galaxy.
1791
01:24:00,567 --> 01:24:03,600
And every now and then one would
drift through a solar system.
1792
01:24:03,633 --> 01:24:09,267
And if they spotted an active
transmitting civilization,
1793
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:14,567
then the ship activates.
Something wakes up.
1794
01:24:15,667 --> 01:24:18,100
Maybe a message is beamed back
1795
01:24:18,133 --> 01:24:20,533
to the aliens' home world.
1796
01:24:20,567 --> 01:24:24,833
It says we've discovered
another emerging civilization.
1797
01:24:24,867 --> 01:24:27,367
Once that message is received,
1798
01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:29,633
then they're going
to come in force.
1799
01:24:29,667 --> 01:24:32,200
Hopefully in peace,
but maybe not.
1800
01:24:33,567 --> 01:24:37,067
[Sarah] There are plans to
launch a mission into space,
1801
01:24:37,100 --> 01:24:40,467
have it just in a stable
orbit just waiting
1802
01:24:40,500 --> 01:24:42,867
for the next
interstellar object.
1803
01:24:42,900 --> 01:24:46,067
And once they spot it, they'll
just be ready to get there.
1804
01:24:47,100 --> 01:24:50,043
[Nick] 'Oumuamua, it's
a little disconcerting
1805
01:24:50,067 --> 01:24:53,400
that it got as close as it did
without anyone seeing it coming.
1806
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:58,967
What if we were facing
hostile extraterrestrials?
1807
01:24:59,067 --> 01:25:01,667
Or what if this had
just been a rock
1808
01:25:01,700 --> 01:25:05,043
but headed directly
for planet Earth?
1809
01:25:05,067 --> 01:25:07,533
I mean, 'Oumuamua
should be a wakeup call.
1810
01:25:07,567 --> 01:25:09,667
We missed the last one.
1811
01:25:10,533 --> 01:25:12,067
Let's not miss the next one.
1812
01:25:14,467 --> 01:25:16,867
All right, guys,
I'm here With Dr. O.
1813
01:25:16,900 --> 01:25:21,043
So, Dr. O, in your opinion why is
'Oumuamua such an important discovery?
1814
01:25:21,067 --> 01:25:23,900
Well, there are certain things
that we figure out in science
1815
01:25:23,933 --> 01:25:27,100
but we can't accept as true
until we actually observe it.
1816
01:25:27,133 --> 01:25:30,043
For example, we figured out
early in the 20th century
1817
01:25:30,067 --> 01:25:32,967
that planet formation is a
side effect of star formation.
1818
01:25:33,067 --> 01:25:34,433
But it wasn't until the '90s
1819
01:25:34,467 --> 01:25:37,233
that we first saw a planet
outside of our solar system.
1820
01:25:37,267 --> 01:25:39,967
Such that we can say,
"Yes, there they are."
1821
01:25:40,067 --> 01:25:42,067
So, we have a good
understanding now
1822
01:25:42,100 --> 01:25:43,733
of how a solar system is formed.
1823
01:25:43,767 --> 01:25:47,333
And what happens is it's
a very chaotic situation.
1824
01:25:47,367 --> 01:25:50,133
So where we have four
terrestrial planets today,
1825
01:25:50,167 --> 01:25:51,967
there were dozens
of proto planets.
1826
01:25:52,067 --> 01:25:54,067
And as they interacted
and collided,
1827
01:25:54,100 --> 01:25:55,967
some objects were
thrown into the Sun,
1828
01:25:56,067 --> 01:25:58,467
some objects were incorporated
in the planetary bodies.
1829
01:25:58,500 --> 01:26:00,933
And some were sent flying
out of our solar system.
1830
01:26:00,967 --> 01:26:02,367
How... How?
1831
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:03,600
Like, how do they get...
1832
01:26:03,633 --> 01:26:05,500
How are they circling around
1833
01:26:05,533 --> 01:26:07,967
and all of a sudden one
decides to just take off?
1834
01:26:08,067 --> 01:26:11,167
Yeah, so it has to do with
gravitational interaction.
1835
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:13,733
So, close calls will
change a trajectory.
1836
01:26:13,767 --> 01:26:16,667
And if it swings around the
Sun or, say, Jupiter, right?
1837
01:26:16,700 --> 01:26:19,933
And under the right circumstances
it can gain enough momentum
1838
01:26:19,967 --> 01:26:22,467
to just slingshot right
out of the solar system.
1839
01:26:22,500 --> 01:26:25,600
So, we expect that objects
from our solar system
1840
01:26:25,633 --> 01:26:27,367
are flying throughout the galaxy
1841
01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:30,900
and objects from other solar systems
are also flying throughout the galaxy
1842
01:26:30,933 --> 01:26:33,833
and on occasion they may
enter our solar system.
1843
01:26:33,867 --> 01:26:36,600
- And that's what 'Oumuamua represents.
- Okay.
1844
01:26:36,633 --> 01:26:39,233
Okay, the 'Oumuamua
was actually discovered
1845
01:26:39,267 --> 01:26:41,333
using the telescope
that's shown behind us.
1846
01:26:41,367 --> 01:26:42,500
That's right.
1847
01:26:42,533 --> 01:26:45,767
So, we found 'Oumuamua with
the telescope on Haleakala
1848
01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:47,600
- in the Hawaiian island.
- Very well done.
1849
01:26:47,633 --> 01:26:50,100
- Yes. Yes, I've been there. It's a cool spot.
- Yeah.
1850
01:26:50,133 --> 01:26:52,933
Yeah, and so, the thing
about an object like this
1851
01:26:52,967 --> 01:26:54,333
is similar to an asteroid.
1852
01:26:54,367 --> 01:26:58,300
So when we look at interstellar
or interplanetary interlopers,
1853
01:26:58,333 --> 01:26:59,876
- they come in two main types.
- Mmm-hmm.
1854
01:26:59,900 --> 01:27:03,167
Stuff that was once a
part of a planetary body,
1855
01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,600
so it will be made up of
metal or stone or rocky.
1856
01:27:06,633 --> 01:27:08,200
And stuff that never was.
1857
01:27:08,233 --> 01:27:12,833
So that's like comets or what we call
carbonaceous chondrite, um, asteroids.
1858
01:27:12,867 --> 01:27:17,200
And so 'Oumuamua appeared
to be a rocky body.
1859
01:27:17,233 --> 01:27:20,900
Most of the astronomers thought
that perhaps it would be an icy body
1860
01:27:20,933 --> 01:27:22,433
but there was no
evidence of that.
1861
01:27:22,467 --> 01:27:25,333
But you can... You see it has a
shape here. It's long and thin.
1862
01:27:25,367 --> 01:27:27,376
- Mmm-hmm.
- So what we do, we observe these things.
1863
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:29,767
Now remember, the
way physics works,
1864
01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:33,433
if this object comes into our
solar system from a long distance,
1865
01:27:33,467 --> 01:27:36,933
it's like it fell toward the Sun
from an interstellar distance.
1866
01:27:36,967 --> 01:27:38,900
- Yeah.
- So it's moving so fast
1867
01:27:38,933 --> 01:27:41,167
that you can only
get so much data.
1868
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:44,667
And one of the important pieces
of data we call a light curve.
1869
01:27:44,700 --> 01:27:46,700
Let's just look at its
brightness over time.
1870
01:27:46,733 --> 01:27:49,367
So if you imagine a
bowling ball, a bowling pin
1871
01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:51,700
flying through space
and tumbling, right?
1872
01:27:51,733 --> 01:27:54,533
When you're seeing the
long side, it looks bright.
1873
01:27:54,567 --> 01:27:56,633
When you're seeing the
short end, it looks dim.
1874
01:27:56,667 --> 01:27:59,767
So, you can reconstruct
the shape of objects
1875
01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:02,043
based on how they reflect light.
1876
01:28:02,067 --> 01:28:04,933
And also, based on the
colors that they reflect,
1877
01:28:04,967 --> 01:28:07,633
you can figure out what
it's made of to some degree.
1878
01:28:08,467 --> 01:28:10,500
You're so smart, oh, my gosh.
1879
01:28:10,533 --> 01:28:11,867
- Okay. Um...
- [laughs]
1880
01:28:11,900 --> 01:28:13,900
What other discoveries
1881
01:28:13,933 --> 01:28:16,567
point to the possibility
of life on other planets?
1882
01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:19,233
Well, so, here is the big
1883
01:28:19,267 --> 01:28:22,133
- controversial analysis that was done.
- Uh-huh.
1884
01:28:22,167 --> 01:28:24,933
So, as different astronomers
try to figure out
1885
01:28:24,967 --> 01:28:26,433
what is this made of,
1886
01:28:26,467 --> 01:28:28,233
an astronomer from Harvard,
1887
01:28:28,267 --> 01:28:31,100
uh, and his collaborators
performed a study
1888
01:28:31,133 --> 01:28:34,767
where they claimed
that it was way thinner
1889
01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:38,800
than what most of us
read from the data.
1890
01:28:38,833 --> 01:28:42,433
And so, the conclusion was, "Oh,
it looks something like a sail."
1891
01:28:42,467 --> 01:28:44,933
Now, what would that be?
1892
01:28:44,967 --> 01:28:47,533
And so, this astronomer
just speculated
1893
01:28:47,567 --> 01:28:52,500
that perhaps it is a light sail
from some alien civilization.
1894
01:28:52,533 --> 01:28:55,400
Now, most astronomers do not
accept that interpretation.
1895
01:28:55,433 --> 01:28:57,333
I mean, that is
a... That is a...
1896
01:28:57,367 --> 01:28:59,500
- That is a leap.
- That is a leap.
1897
01:28:59,533 --> 01:29:01,967
- That is a leap. Okay.
- It is a giant leap, yes, yes.
1898
01:29:02,067 --> 01:29:04,833
But continuing with
what your comment was,
1899
01:29:04,867 --> 01:29:07,067
so most don't accept
necessarily that.
1900
01:29:07,100 --> 01:29:09,833
That's right. So, you know,
there are some phrase that like,
1901
01:29:09,867 --> 01:29:13,133
you know, great claims require great
evidence or something like that.
1902
01:29:13,167 --> 01:29:14,867
The evidence just isn't there.
1903
01:29:14,900 --> 01:29:17,043
'Oumuamua remains a mystery.
1904
01:29:17,067 --> 01:29:20,400
Interesting. Okay, so what is
about 'Oumuamua's trajectory
1905
01:29:20,433 --> 01:29:22,100
that made people
raise their eyebrows?
1906
01:29:22,133 --> 01:29:24,300
Oh, that is everything.
1907
01:29:24,333 --> 01:29:26,200
So you look, for
example, at the planets,
1908
01:29:26,233 --> 01:29:29,567
there are these nice elliptical
orbits that are almost circular,
1909
01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:31,667
but 'Oumuamua did
something different.
1910
01:29:31,700 --> 01:29:34,833
It traced out a geometric figure
that we called a hyperbola.
1911
01:29:34,867 --> 01:29:37,043
And that is like
an unbound orbit.
1912
01:29:37,067 --> 01:29:40,533
And that told us it is not from
our solar system necessarily.
1913
01:29:40,567 --> 01:29:42,700
Right? But the other thing
that was really interesting
1914
01:29:42,733 --> 01:29:45,300
- is the laws of physics work really, really well.
- Mmm-hmm.
1915
01:29:45,333 --> 01:29:48,500
So, we can predict the
trajectories, right?
1916
01:29:48,533 --> 01:29:51,467
And so, if it was a rock, this
is the expected trajectory.
1917
01:29:51,500 --> 01:29:53,233
But it did something different.
1918
01:29:53,267 --> 01:29:55,767
- Yeah. It shocked you guys.
- Now that's not unusual.
1919
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:56,909
- Yeah.
- It shocked us, right?
1920
01:29:56,933 --> 01:29:58,867
It's not as weird
as it may sound.
1921
01:29:58,900 --> 01:30:03,467
'Cause two things will change
the motion of an object.
1922
01:30:03,500 --> 01:30:06,733
One is, sunlight actually
applies a pressure
1923
01:30:06,767 --> 01:30:08,400
and air what's called
the solar winds.
1924
01:30:08,433 --> 01:30:09,967
So that could change
the trajectory.
1925
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:11,933
And also when objects
get near the Sun,
1926
01:30:11,967 --> 01:30:13,467
if they have any ices,
1927
01:30:13,500 --> 01:30:15,833
those ices would do
what we call outgassing.
1928
01:30:15,867 --> 01:30:18,000
And that creates a
force on the body
1929
01:30:18,033 --> 01:30:21,567
and changes its trajectory from
a purely ballistic trajectory.
1930
01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:24,200
Awesome. All right. Well,
speaking of outgassing,
1931
01:30:24,233 --> 01:30:25,667
back to you, Josh.
1932
01:30:25,700 --> 01:30:27,667
- Oh, unbelievable, Jess.
- [Jessica laughs]
1933
01:30:27,700 --> 01:30:29,476
Jess, I could have you back
in the jungles tomorrow.
1934
01:30:29,500 --> 01:30:30,800
[Jessica] Oh, no! I'm sorry.
1935
01:30:30,833 --> 01:30:32,733
When we come back,
our panel of experts
1936
01:30:32,767 --> 01:30:35,567
rate their top UAP sightings.
1937
01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:38,467
Which footage checks all
of the boxes for them?
1938
01:30:38,500 --> 01:30:41,567
And later, we'll hear from
some Hollywood heavy hitters
1939
01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:44,367
about whether they believe
in extraterrestrials,
1940
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:47,367
When UFOs Declassified:
Live returns.
1941
01:31:04,067 --> 01:31:07,233
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: Live.
1942
01:31:07,267 --> 01:31:09,433
I'm Josh Gates, and I
am thrilled to be joined
1943
01:31:09,467 --> 01:31:11,700
by our panel of
experts, Jeremy Corbell,
1944
01:31:11,733 --> 01:31:13,567
George Knapp and Nick Pope.
1945
01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:15,533
And we are all here
because of this.
1946
01:31:15,567 --> 01:31:17,467
We are discussing
the Pentagon report
1947
01:31:17,500 --> 01:31:19,367
that just dropped five days ago.
1948
01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:21,800
And one of the really
interesting take aways
1949
01:31:21,833 --> 01:31:24,633
for me in this report are these
different buckets they use
1950
01:31:24,667 --> 01:31:27,600
to categorize the UAPs or UFOs.
1951
01:31:27,633 --> 01:31:30,043
So those categories
are airborne clutter,
1952
01:31:30,067 --> 01:31:33,633
natural atmospheric phenomena, stuff
that's just naturally occurring,
1953
01:31:33,667 --> 01:31:36,333
uh, USG or U.S. government, uh,
1954
01:31:36,367 --> 01:31:39,333
foreign adversary
systems and other.
1955
01:31:39,367 --> 01:31:42,433
So let's talk about other
or natural occurrences.
1956
01:31:42,467 --> 01:31:45,700
Jeremy, have you ever looked
at a video or seen a UAP
1957
01:31:45,733 --> 01:31:48,500
and then later realized you'd
misidentified something.
1958
01:31:48,533 --> 01:31:50,667
Well, all the time people
misidentify things.
1959
01:31:50,700 --> 01:31:53,800
And the whole point is something is
unidentified until it's identified.
1960
01:31:53,833 --> 01:31:55,533
Don't jump to conclusions.
1961
01:31:55,567 --> 01:31:59,043
Right. George, where do you
think that your Pyramid UFO video
1962
01:31:59,067 --> 01:32:00,700
would fall in these buckets?
1963
01:32:00,733 --> 01:32:03,043
They would fall into the
place where I get my mail,
1964
01:32:03,067 --> 01:32:04,709
- into other. That's where I live.
- [Josh laughs]
1965
01:32:04,733 --> 01:32:06,667
I mean, do they look aerodynamic
1966
01:32:06,700 --> 01:32:08,333
to you if you're
gonna build something?
1967
01:32:08,367 --> 01:32:10,367
Some kind of a drone,
an earthly drone.
1968
01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:12,433
Would you make it Pyramid
shaped? I wouldn't.
1969
01:32:12,467 --> 01:32:15,067
[Josh] Exactly. Now, Nick, looking
at these different categories
1970
01:32:15,100 --> 01:32:17,333
which is more, you
know, concerning?
1971
01:32:17,367 --> 01:32:20,600
- Foreign adversary systems or other?
- Other.
1972
01:32:20,633 --> 01:32:23,800
It's a little word but it's
a scary word in this context.
1973
01:32:23,833 --> 01:32:27,233
You can pick up the phone and talk
to your adversary through diplomacy.
1974
01:32:27,267 --> 01:32:29,833
We can't talk to
these people if...
1975
01:32:29,867 --> 01:32:32,043
Who are whatever they
are. We don't know.
1976
01:32:32,067 --> 01:32:34,100
Personally, I would go
with airborne clutter,
1977
01:32:34,133 --> 01:32:35,667
but I'm afraid of birds.
1978
01:32:35,700 --> 01:32:39,833
Uh, okay, listen, based on these
incredible videos that we saw tonight,
1979
01:32:39,867 --> 01:32:43,043
let's talk about your top
UAP sightings and why.
1980
01:32:43,067 --> 01:32:45,100
Let's just go rapid
fire down the line here.
1981
01:32:45,133 --> 01:32:46,467
What about for you, Jeremy?
1982
01:32:46,500 --> 01:32:49,933
My favorite is 1989 Bob Lazar
right here in Las Vegas, Nevada.
1983
01:32:49,967 --> 01:32:51,767
But after what
we've seen tonight,
1984
01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:53,143
it's the cases that
I've worked on.
1985
01:32:53,167 --> 01:32:56,867
So the USS Omaha and all the
corroborative sensor data
1986
01:32:56,900 --> 01:32:58,433
and information
and visual evidence
1987
01:32:58,467 --> 01:33:00,476
that George and I have been
able to provide to the public
1988
01:33:00,500 --> 01:33:03,467
makes it one of the most robust
cases we've ever had with UFOs.
1989
01:33:03,500 --> 01:33:05,700
Right. 'Cause it's not
just one piece of footage.
1990
01:33:05,733 --> 01:33:07,400
You've got night vision,
you've got radar,
1991
01:33:07,433 --> 01:33:09,400
you've got FLIR, it's
kind of the whole package.
1992
01:33:09,433 --> 01:33:11,867
And you have now footage
from the deck of the Omaha.
1993
01:33:11,900 --> 01:33:14,533
Exactly, okay. So,
George, what about you?
1994
01:33:14,567 --> 01:33:15,767
For me it's the Tic Tac.
1995
01:33:15,800 --> 01:33:17,967
I think it's the most
important UFO in history.
1996
01:33:18,067 --> 01:33:20,333
Because of what it is
meant to where we are now.
1997
01:33:20,367 --> 01:33:22,967
I mean, the credibility
of those witnesses,
1998
01:33:23,067 --> 01:33:24,767
the pilots, Dave
Fravor and others,
1999
01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:28,500
they've gone before congress with the
help of two former intelligence officials
2000
01:33:28,533 --> 01:33:30,233
Luis Elizondo and Chris Mellon.
2001
01:33:30,267 --> 01:33:33,200
Who gave up government service
to push this ball down the field.
2002
01:33:33,233 --> 01:33:35,400
That video is what
sold that story.
2003
01:33:35,433 --> 01:33:37,067
It got The New York
Times to cover it,
2004
01:33:37,100 --> 01:33:38,500
60 Minutes to cover it,
2005
01:33:38,533 --> 01:33:41,300
and it was the reason that
we have a UAP task force.
2006
01:33:41,333 --> 01:33:42,567
Certainly changed the game.
2007
01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:44,800
Absolutely. And, Nick
Pope, what about you?
2008
01:33:44,833 --> 01:33:46,043
I'm gearing for Gimbal.
2009
01:33:46,067 --> 01:33:49,767
When these normally
unflappable pilots get excited,
2010
01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:51,333
I get excited, too.
2011
01:33:51,367 --> 01:33:54,400
But look, there are a lot of
UFO videos on the Internet.
2012
01:33:54,433 --> 01:33:57,833
But what makes these really stand
out, and Gimbal's part of this,
2013
01:33:57,867 --> 01:34:01,500
is that the Department of Defense
have put it on their own website
2014
01:34:01,533 --> 01:34:04,100
and issued a press release
to say it's genuine.
2015
01:34:04,133 --> 01:34:06,233
So, we've got the
provenance of it.
2016
01:34:06,267 --> 01:34:09,500
I'm with you. The Gimbal video
for me is really the most
2017
01:34:09,533 --> 01:34:13,667
the most intriguing just because
of how these unflappable pilots,
2018
01:34:13,700 --> 01:34:16,733
these guys that normally have
this right stuff attitude,
2019
01:34:16,767 --> 01:34:19,133
they are just freaking out
for lack of a better term
2020
01:34:19,167 --> 01:34:20,633
about they're
encountering up there.
2021
01:34:20,667 --> 01:34:23,333
There's something about that
that just makes it so compelling.
2022
01:34:23,367 --> 01:34:25,233
All right, so let's
check in with Jessica
2023
01:34:25,267 --> 01:34:27,533
and our ever expanding
Twitter feed.
2024
01:34:27,567 --> 01:34:30,667
Thank you, Josh. Here's what's
happening over on social.
2025
01:34:30,700 --> 01:34:32,767
Bring it up. All right.
Joseph writes, [reading].
2026
01:34:37,233 --> 01:34:39,067
Jeremy, you want
to take that one?
2027
01:34:39,100 --> 01:34:41,200
Yeah, I think we can handle.
We know we can handle.
2028
01:34:41,233 --> 01:34:42,643
We have a right to
know, a need to know
2029
01:34:42,667 --> 01:34:45,967
and I feel a duty to find
out the truth about UFOs.
2030
01:34:46,067 --> 01:34:47,967
All right, thanks, Jeremy
and thanks, Joseph.
2031
01:34:48,067 --> 01:34:53,500
Keep sending your clips and comments
in using the #UFOsDeclassifedLIVE.
2032
01:34:53,533 --> 01:34:56,300
All right. Well, next up,
we're going to dig deep
2033
01:34:56,333 --> 01:34:58,900
into our controversial
history with UFOs.
2034
01:34:58,933 --> 01:35:02,867
Plus, we have that gripping footage
from the deck of the USS Omaha
2035
01:35:02,900 --> 01:35:06,100
when UFOs Declassified:
LIVE returns.
2036
01:35:28,067 --> 01:35:31,367
You're watching UFOs Declassified:
LIVE. I'm Josh Gates.
2037
01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:34,933
As the pentagon report
indicates, the public in general
2038
01:35:34,967 --> 01:35:39,267
has been hesitant to disclose UAP
sightings because of the stigma
2039
01:35:39,300 --> 01:35:41,400
associated with
UFO eye witnesses.
2040
01:35:41,433 --> 01:35:45,600
But research shows that these
UAP sightings have been going on
2041
01:35:45,633 --> 01:35:48,167
for years and
years. Take a look.
2042
01:35:49,633 --> 01:35:53,933
[Nick Pope] People think that
with these US navy sightings,
2043
01:35:53,967 --> 01:35:56,600
some people think this
is new, it's not new.
2044
01:35:56,633 --> 01:35:58,967
It's been going on
since the dawn of time.
2045
01:36:02,467 --> 01:36:06,167
Myths, legends, these
things, whatever they are,
2046
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:08,100
have been seen
throughout history.
2047
01:36:10,500 --> 01:36:13,567
[Jim Semivan] After World War
II, the world was very different,
2048
01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:18,043
and we had exploded a nuclear
bomb over Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
2049
01:36:18,067 --> 01:36:20,500
That changed everything.
2050
01:36:20,533 --> 01:36:24,200
Now, people start seeing
unidentified flying objects
2051
01:36:24,233 --> 01:36:26,167
and they're coming
over military bases
2052
01:36:26,200 --> 01:36:27,800
and we don't know
what to do about it.
2053
01:36:30,067 --> 01:36:35,733
[Nick] One of the central pieces
to the UFO back story is Roswell.
2054
01:36:35,767 --> 01:36:38,867
Something crashed in
the New Mexico Desert.
2055
01:36:38,900 --> 01:36:41,800
From that moment on,
two things happened.
2056
01:36:41,833 --> 01:36:45,400
Firstly the U.S. government
knew that we're not alone,
2057
01:36:45,433 --> 01:36:50,133
and secondly, a vast
conspiracy emerged
2058
01:36:50,167 --> 01:36:52,133
to cover this truth up.
2059
01:36:52,167 --> 01:36:54,400
Believers say alien spacecraft.
2060
01:36:54,433 --> 01:36:57,667
Skeptics say weather balloon.
2061
01:37:00,067 --> 01:37:02,043
Whatever happened at Roswell,
2062
01:37:02,067 --> 01:37:07,733
it's now so embedded in people's
awareness as part of pop culture
2063
01:37:07,767 --> 01:37:12,800
and continues to fire people's
interest and imagination.
2064
01:37:12,833 --> 01:37:17,133
And maybe what happened at
Roswell was the start of all this,
2065
01:37:17,167 --> 01:37:19,533
at least the start
in the modern era.
2066
01:37:22,133 --> 01:37:25,833
[Keith Melton] In 1953, the CIA
created the Robertson panel.
2067
01:37:25,867 --> 01:37:30,533
It said that there was no
direct threat from UFOs.
2068
01:37:30,567 --> 01:37:35,900
But most important, they said
the real danger wasn't from UFOs,
2069
01:37:35,933 --> 01:37:39,300
but it was from thousands
of UFO sightings
2070
01:37:39,333 --> 01:37:42,900
would overwhelm our
reporting capabilities
2071
01:37:42,933 --> 01:37:45,867
and mask a soviet air attack.
2072
01:37:45,900 --> 01:37:50,467
And as a result, they made
a concerted effort to debunk
2073
01:37:50,500 --> 01:37:53,467
and demystify UFOs
2074
01:37:53,500 --> 01:37:56,400
and any people
associated with it.
2075
01:37:56,433 --> 01:38:00,533
If people watch closely,
they'll notice we tend to use
2076
01:38:00,567 --> 01:38:03,900
the phrase UAP and not UFO.
2077
01:38:03,933 --> 01:38:07,167
It's just a way of
getting rid of the stigma
2078
01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:10,367
that comes with the term
UFO, and it's just a way,
2079
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:14,733
this is really important, to get
the senior stakeholder engagement
2080
01:38:14,767 --> 01:38:19,600
from within government, the military
and the intelligence community.
2081
01:38:21,500 --> 01:38:23,533
Well, joining Nick
Pope on our panel,
2082
01:38:23,567 --> 01:38:26,233
our former CIA
officer, Jim Semivan
2083
01:38:26,267 --> 01:38:28,900
and intelligence
historian, Keith Melton.
2084
01:38:28,933 --> 01:38:30,676
- Welcome to both of you.
- [both] Thank you.
2085
01:38:30,700 --> 01:38:36,100
Okay, so, you know, when we talk
about the history of UFO sightings,
2086
01:38:36,133 --> 01:38:39,800
they may well go back
into pre-history.
2087
01:38:39,833 --> 01:38:43,800
But I think most Americans think of
Roswell as the beginning of it all.
2088
01:38:43,833 --> 01:38:45,333
Why?
2089
01:38:45,367 --> 01:38:50,200
Well, actually the first major UFO
incident took place one month earlier.
2090
01:38:50,233 --> 01:38:51,900
- Before Roswell?
- Before.
2091
01:38:51,933 --> 01:38:55,267
When a private pilot flying
near Mount Raniere, Washington,
2092
01:38:55,300 --> 01:39:00,300
observed nine flying discs
in formation traveling
2093
01:39:00,333 --> 01:39:02,533
at speeds between
Mach 2 and Mach 3.
2094
01:39:02,567 --> 01:39:05,267
The next day, it made
nationwide headlines.
2095
01:39:05,300 --> 01:39:09,200
And one newspaper coined
the term "flying saucers."
2096
01:39:09,233 --> 01:39:10,909
- That's where it all started.
- It started there.
2097
01:39:10,933 --> 01:39:12,176
At least in our popular culture.
2098
01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:16,233
Why do you think Roswell
gets the glory as it were?
2099
01:39:16,267 --> 01:39:20,043
It has become popularized
certainly after 1970.
2100
01:39:20,067 --> 01:39:25,433
But from 1947 to 1970, very
little was written about it.
2101
01:39:25,467 --> 01:39:29,467
Let's talk about area 51 and how
that fits into the Roswell story.
2102
01:39:29,500 --> 01:39:32,600
There is no direct connection
2103
01:39:32,633 --> 01:39:38,367
between Roswell in 1947
and area 51 in 1955.
2104
01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:42,967
It didn't even begin construction
until August of 1955.
2105
01:39:43,067 --> 01:39:45,900
And yet, they're always
thought of in the same breath.
2106
01:39:45,933 --> 01:39:49,867
In the context that if
there were technology,
2107
01:39:49,900 --> 01:39:54,133
foreign adversarial technology that
would likely have been the place.
2108
01:39:54,167 --> 01:39:58,567
But actually at the time, it would have
probably gone to Patterson air force base.
2109
01:39:58,600 --> 01:40:02,567
It would have been a much more
likely scenario in that theory.
2110
01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:05,133
One of the things I found,
Jim, interesting in the package
2111
01:40:05,167 --> 01:40:09,967
is you mentioned that the bombings in
World War II of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
2112
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:13,533
really coincide with the beginnings
of a lot of these UFO reports.
2113
01:40:13,567 --> 01:40:16,533
Do you think there is an actual
connection between these events?
2114
01:40:16,567 --> 01:40:22,767
Yeah, I think so. In 1945, a
squadron of Hellcat Fighters
2115
01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:26,867
were trying to intercept
a UFO that was hovering
2116
01:40:26,900 --> 01:40:32,167
over a han ford plutonium production
facility in Washington state.
2117
01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:33,900
Now, they did this
over three nights.
2118
01:40:33,933 --> 01:40:35,933
They went after these
UFOs over three nights.
2119
01:40:35,967 --> 01:40:38,000
And obviously didn't catch them.
2120
01:40:38,033 --> 01:40:42,600
But this occurred seven months
before the bombs went off,
2121
01:40:42,633 --> 01:40:45,800
before the atomic bombs went
off in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
2122
01:40:45,833 --> 01:40:48,367
And what this indicates to me is
2123
01:40:48,400 --> 01:40:52,333
that these UAPs were interested
in our nuclear technology
2124
01:40:52,367 --> 01:40:54,433
at the very beginning
of the nuclear age.
2125
01:40:54,467 --> 01:40:59,367
One of the things I read that sounded
either outlandish or terrifying or both,
2126
01:40:59,400 --> 01:41:02,900
I don't know, is that some
former air force personnel
2127
01:41:02,933 --> 01:41:05,967
testified not just
that UAPs exist,
2128
01:41:06,067 --> 01:41:10,133
but that they have the capability
to neutralize nuclear weapons.
2129
01:41:10,167 --> 01:41:12,200
Is there any evidence
of that really?
2130
01:41:12,233 --> 01:41:15,833
Yes. And allegedly.
2131
01:41:15,867 --> 01:41:21,133
But there are a few instances
where UAPs were seen
2132
01:41:21,167 --> 01:41:27,433
over ICBM sites and that they
were allegedly interfering
2133
01:41:27,467 --> 01:41:28,800
with their launch activity.
2134
01:41:28,833 --> 01:41:30,567
Now this happened in Russia too,
2135
01:41:30,600 --> 01:41:34,267
it happened numerous times in Russia
actually, so we have seen this before.
2136
01:41:34,300 --> 01:41:37,167
Nick, one of the things
that is curious here is
2137
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,900
we have talked in this
country about UFOs,
2138
01:41:39,933 --> 01:41:42,067
certainly in popular
culture for a long time.
2139
01:41:42,100 --> 01:41:43,367
But look at what we have now.
2140
01:41:43,400 --> 01:41:46,400
We've got this official
pentagon report.
2141
01:41:46,433 --> 01:41:50,467
Do you think the release
of this report changes
2142
01:41:50,500 --> 01:41:54,167
the perception in the
culture around UFOs?
2143
01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:57,500
Completely. I think it
was regarded as fringe.
2144
01:41:57,533 --> 01:42:00,767
It's now main stream. People
thought about it in terms
2145
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,967
of science fiction
and conspiracy theory.
2146
01:42:03,067 --> 01:42:07,067
They're now framing it correctly as
defense and national security issue.
2147
01:42:07,100 --> 01:42:09,900
So it's completely changed
the narrative, yes.
2148
01:42:09,933 --> 01:42:12,300
Do you think that when
people read in this report
2149
01:42:12,333 --> 01:42:18,300
that 143 out of 144 of these
sightings are unexplained,
2150
01:42:18,333 --> 01:42:19,767
that they should be worried?
2151
01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:22,800
Yeah, I think it's like if you
can't explain that many of them,
2152
01:42:22,833 --> 01:42:26,043
well, go back and take
another look. Could do better.
2153
01:42:26,067 --> 01:42:28,643
Yeah, so you think people should
be nervous by this to some extent?
2154
01:42:28,667 --> 01:42:30,800
They should. If there's
anything in our skies,
2155
01:42:30,833 --> 01:42:32,800
particularly with
these technologies,
2156
01:42:32,833 --> 01:42:35,233
then absolutely, we
must be concerned.
2157
01:42:35,267 --> 01:42:39,300
And Congress is concerned. Hence
the interest, continuing interest.
2158
01:42:39,333 --> 01:42:41,567
- This report is just the beginning.
- All right.
2159
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:43,309
Thank you very much. We're
gonna take a break here.
2160
01:42:43,333 --> 01:42:47,500
When we return, we have got that must-see
footage from the deck of the USS Omaha
2161
01:42:47,533 --> 01:42:50,043
and it is almost time
to bang the gavel
2162
01:42:50,067 --> 01:42:53,400
and find out what the verdict is
from our experts, adversaries,
2163
01:42:53,433 --> 01:42:54,933
aliens, neither.
2164
01:42:54,967 --> 01:42:58,500
And don't forget to share your
thoughts on UAPs on Twitter
2165
01:42:58,533 --> 01:43:01,633
using the #UFOsDeclassifiedLIVE.
2166
01:43:01,667 --> 01:43:02,667
We'll be right back.
2167
01:43:25,867 --> 01:43:29,767
[Josh] Looking at our poll, when
asked, "What's inside area 51?"
2168
01:43:29,800 --> 01:43:31,167
Looks like a pretty tight race
2169
01:43:31,200 --> 01:43:35,067
between an ET spaceship
and military equipment.
2170
01:43:35,100 --> 01:43:38,467
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: LIVE.
2171
01:43:38,500 --> 01:43:42,400
I'm Josh Gates along
with UAP/UFO experts,
2172
01:43:42,433 --> 01:43:46,267
Jeremy Corbell, Jim
Semivan and Nick Pope.
2173
01:43:46,300 --> 01:43:49,600
Now, as promised, we
have brand-new footage
2174
01:43:49,633 --> 01:43:53,200
from the swarming event
above the USS Omaha.
2175
01:43:53,233 --> 01:43:57,767
Get ready for this. We've already seen
incredible radar and flir imagery.
2176
01:43:57,800 --> 01:44:02,100
Now, we have a brand-new angle
on this same historic event.
2177
01:44:02,133 --> 01:44:03,133
Take a look.
2178
01:44:05,167 --> 01:44:06,933
All right, Jeremy,
let's talk about this.
2179
01:44:06,967 --> 01:44:09,300
What are we seeing
in this footage?
2180
01:44:09,333 --> 01:44:12,043
[Jeremy] Right, so you're seeing
corroborative video evidence.
2181
01:44:12,067 --> 01:44:14,667
All the other videos that
George Knapp and I have put out,
2182
01:44:14,700 --> 01:44:15,767
they've been confirmed
2183
01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:18,567
by the pentagon as being
true unidentified UFOs.
2184
01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:20,867
Part of a study, what
you're seeing here
2185
01:44:20,900 --> 01:44:22,833
is video footage
from the USS Omaha.
2186
01:44:22,867 --> 01:44:25,667
You see the lights, they're lit
up. That's really important.
2187
01:44:25,700 --> 01:44:27,609
It's the first time you're
seeing footage of this.
2188
01:44:27,633 --> 01:44:30,900
[Josh] And so, how long
did this event go on for?
2189
01:44:30,933 --> 01:44:32,900
[Jeremy] This is actually
over a number of days
2190
01:44:32,933 --> 01:44:37,633
where it came to a highlight
on the 15th of July, 2019.
2191
01:44:37,667 --> 01:44:39,133
[Josh] So, we see these lights.
2192
01:44:39,167 --> 01:44:42,800
We can see some blinking here. I know
we have this flair and radar also,
2193
01:44:42,833 --> 01:44:45,267
but now we do know
this isn't an aircraft?
2194
01:44:45,300 --> 01:44:47,176
How do we know we're not
seeing a helicopter hovering?
2195
01:44:47,200 --> 01:44:50,233
Right, so this is well studied
by our United States military.
2196
01:44:50,267 --> 01:44:54,267
It's part of the UAPTF task force,
like, investigation into this.
2197
01:44:54,300 --> 01:44:56,633
This is a confirmed
UFO sighting.
2198
01:44:56,667 --> 01:44:59,409
They don't know where they landed. They
don't know where they took off from.
2199
01:44:59,433 --> 01:45:02,767
This is a true UFO
case with great data.
2200
01:45:02,800 --> 01:45:04,733
There were 14 of these
things at one point
2201
01:45:04,767 --> 01:45:07,167
around the USS Omaha,
completely surrounding it.
2202
01:45:07,200 --> 01:45:10,200
They pop on and off radar over
a period of several hours.
2203
01:45:10,233 --> 01:45:12,633
That one was recorded
on the thermal images
2204
01:45:12,667 --> 01:45:15,043
that travel along with
the ship for an hour.
2205
01:45:15,067 --> 01:45:18,200
Earlier I asked you what your
favorite video from tonight is,
2206
01:45:18,233 --> 01:45:19,576
anybody want to
change their answers?
2207
01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:22,133
I mean, how much of a game changer
do you think this video is?
2208
01:45:22,167 --> 01:45:24,533
Altogether, this
video is so important
2209
01:45:24,567 --> 01:45:27,567
because again, it supports
an entire event series
2210
01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:31,667
as one of the most well-documented
UFO cases of all time now.
2211
01:45:31,700 --> 01:45:35,043
And so, you know, taking
all that evidence together,
2212
01:45:35,067 --> 01:45:36,833
it does seem really
compelling, doesn't it?
2213
01:45:36,867 --> 01:45:39,667
- It is absolutely compelling.
- So, okay.
2214
01:45:39,700 --> 01:45:43,533
You know, George, you've been at the
forefront of this field for years,
2215
01:45:43,567 --> 01:45:45,300
what's your reaction
to this video?
2216
01:45:45,333 --> 01:45:49,067
Well, it's important because you have three
different forms of evidence to document it.
2217
01:45:49,100 --> 01:45:51,967
And I presume there are
other cases like that,
2218
01:45:52,067 --> 01:45:54,933
that they are censored
information that the pentagon has
2219
01:45:54,967 --> 01:45:57,600
that is too sensitive to
release to us, to the public.
2220
01:45:57,633 --> 01:45:59,700
It is classified
for a good reason.
2221
01:45:59,733 --> 01:46:02,267
As it was told to me by
an intelligence official,
2222
01:46:02,300 --> 01:46:04,476
you can't tell your friends
without telling your enemies.
2223
01:46:04,500 --> 01:46:07,043
So, there are good reasons for
keeping some of this secret.
2224
01:46:07,067 --> 01:46:09,500
But this clearly is
a pretty solid case.
2225
01:46:09,533 --> 01:46:12,800
Nick, how seriously should
this incident be taken?
2226
01:46:12,833 --> 01:46:15,600
Very seriously. Something
is toying with us.
2227
01:46:15,633 --> 01:46:17,367
It's like playing cat
and mouse with us.
2228
01:46:17,400 --> 01:46:20,167
And I know some of us with
governmental backgrounds
2229
01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:22,767
get accused of pushing
the threat narrative here.
2230
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:25,667
But come on, you've got to
say when these sorts of things
2231
01:46:25,700 --> 01:46:28,100
get close to our
U.S. military assets,
2232
01:46:28,133 --> 01:46:31,500
whether they're aircraft carrier,
destroyers, maybe jets, whatever they are.
2233
01:46:31,533 --> 01:46:34,533
That has got to be seen
as a potential threat.
2234
01:46:34,567 --> 01:46:36,267
Okay. We're going to
take a break here,
2235
01:46:36,300 --> 01:46:39,267
but you're not going to want
to miss what's coming up.
2236
01:46:39,300 --> 01:46:42,367
Our panelists will be
delivering their final verdict,
2237
01:46:42,400 --> 01:46:44,967
adversary, extraterrestrial
or neither.
2238
01:46:45,067 --> 01:46:50,333
Please keep launching your tweets
our way with #UFOsDeclassifiedLIVE.
2239
01:46:50,367 --> 01:46:51,733
More to come after this.
2240
01:47:10,267 --> 01:47:14,043
We are back with more
UFOs Declassified: LIVE.
2241
01:47:14,067 --> 01:47:17,043
I'm Josh Gates. For most
of us, our only exposure
2242
01:47:17,067 --> 01:47:20,767
to the idea of extraterrestrial
life has come from television
2243
01:47:20,800 --> 01:47:24,067
and movies from The Twilight
Zone to Independence Day.
2244
01:47:24,100 --> 01:47:27,067
So, how does Hollywood
compare to the real deal?
2245
01:47:28,733 --> 01:47:32,833
Hollywood has always been
a teller of sci-fi stories.
2246
01:47:32,867 --> 01:47:36,900
I think for entertaining
the audience about UFOs
2247
01:47:36,933 --> 01:47:42,667
and I think UFO movies play into our
great ignorance of the world around us.
2248
01:47:44,167 --> 01:47:47,367
[Barry] One of the things
that's always been out there,
2249
01:47:47,400 --> 01:47:53,533
did we create interest in
UFOs or the fact that people
2250
01:47:53,567 --> 01:47:55,867
were interested in those things,
2251
01:47:55,900 --> 01:47:59,900
did we take advantage and
create what our vision
2252
01:48:00,067 --> 01:48:01,667
of what those images
would look like?
2253
01:48:03,133 --> 01:48:06,833
[Nick] There is an
interesting conspiracy theory
2254
01:48:06,867 --> 01:48:10,267
that some Hollywood
movies are actually part
2255
01:48:10,300 --> 01:48:13,367
of a government campaign
to acclimatize people
2256
01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:15,100
to an extraterrestrial reality.
2257
01:48:16,300 --> 01:48:18,767
Hollywood has had a
huge impact in terms
2258
01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:22,267
of how we conceptualize
extraterrestrial life forms
2259
01:48:22,300 --> 01:48:25,433
intermingling with
life on earth.
2260
01:48:25,467 --> 01:48:31,833
I have met people that I
truly believe could be aliens.
2261
01:48:31,867 --> 01:48:33,600
When we would
scout Men in Black,
2262
01:48:33,633 --> 01:48:37,100
we would drive around New
York and look out the window
2263
01:48:37,133 --> 01:48:43,043
and go, alien, alien. It's
possible they're here.
2264
01:48:43,067 --> 01:48:49,267
[Jonathan] Hollywood created the look
and the sound of UFOs and flying saucers.
2265
01:48:49,300 --> 01:48:52,467
But it's really the movies of
Hollywood starting in the 1950s
2266
01:48:52,500 --> 01:48:57,043
that give us the definitive
image of those flying saucers.
2267
01:48:57,067 --> 01:49:00,043
And it's impact on
our perception of UFOs
2268
01:49:00,067 --> 01:49:04,167
has been tremendous, probably
bigger than any other media.
2269
01:49:04,200 --> 01:49:07,800
If used correctly, Hollywood
is an incredible platform
2270
01:49:07,833 --> 01:49:09,800
to enlighten people.
2271
01:49:09,833 --> 01:49:12,043
I think it will make people want
2272
01:49:12,067 --> 01:49:14,933
to work on it, study
it, understand it,
2273
01:49:14,967 --> 01:49:17,767
get people really
interested and excited
2274
01:49:17,800 --> 01:49:21,400
about dealing with UFOs that are
more than just a craft in the sky.
2275
01:49:23,067 --> 01:49:26,600
Hollywood has actually
produced much better CGI video
2276
01:49:26,633 --> 01:49:29,433
than the Navy pilots have.
2277
01:49:29,467 --> 01:49:33,043
That's cause for some
question in itself is that,
2278
01:49:33,067 --> 01:49:38,467
are we too now saturated
with video CGI images
2279
01:49:38,500 --> 01:49:42,867
and has this now made us less
likely to believe what we see?
2280
01:49:47,067 --> 01:49:50,867
Joining Nick Pope and I on the
panel is our own Jessica Chobot.
2281
01:49:50,900 --> 01:49:54,767
- Welcome to the big desk, Jess.
- I'm so stoked to be here.
2282
01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:56,300
Good to have you here.
2283
01:49:56,333 --> 01:50:02,133
Okay, let's talk movies. I know you
are a major pop culture and movie buff,
2284
01:50:02,167 --> 01:50:03,467
by which I mean a huge nerd.
2285
01:50:03,500 --> 01:50:06,133
- Yes.
- What is the best
2286
01:50:06,167 --> 01:50:09,400
extraterrestrial alien movie
ever made in your opinion?
2287
01:50:09,433 --> 01:50:12,667
Ever made. Well, I've got
a lot that I like a lot,
2288
01:50:12,700 --> 01:50:15,000
but I would have
to say They Live.
2289
01:50:15,033 --> 01:50:16,833
- Oh, They Live?
- Yeah, yeah.
2290
01:50:16,867 --> 01:50:19,333
John Carpenter. Amazing
special effects.
2291
01:50:19,367 --> 01:50:22,567
- Questionable acting.
- I don't think so.
2292
01:50:22,600 --> 01:50:24,567
- Come on.
- It's a classic.
2293
01:50:24,600 --> 01:50:26,033
It is a classic.
It is a classic.
2294
01:50:26,067 --> 01:50:28,033
Nick Pope, what about for you?
2295
01:50:28,067 --> 01:50:29,333
- Arrival.
- Yeah.
2296
01:50:29,367 --> 01:50:31,209
Because I think it speaks
to a lot of the issues
2297
01:50:31,233 --> 01:50:34,267
people are thinking about right
now with this report to Congress.
2298
01:50:34,300 --> 01:50:39,533
I mean, it's not just about aliens.
It's about us and our response.
2299
01:50:39,567 --> 01:50:43,167
Do we respond with hope or fear,
with the hand of friendship
2300
01:50:43,200 --> 01:50:45,300
- or guns and bombs?
- That's right.
2301
01:50:45,333 --> 01:50:47,209
I have to say it's kind
of an impossible question.
2302
01:50:47,233 --> 01:50:49,467
There are so many
great alien movies.
2303
01:50:49,500 --> 01:50:52,733
How about Alien or the greatest
sequel of all time, Aliens.
2304
01:50:52,767 --> 01:50:54,109
I thought you were
going to say Prometheus.
2305
01:50:54,133 --> 01:50:55,576
And I was gonna be
like, "You gotta leave!"
2306
01:50:55,600 --> 01:50:58,500
- Not Prometheus, but the other ones.
- [laughs]
2307
01:50:58,533 --> 01:51:02,400
I mean for me personally,
when I was a kid,
2308
01:51:02,433 --> 01:51:07,043
I used to love really old sci-fi, I used
to love The Day the Earth Stood Still,
2309
01:51:07,067 --> 01:51:09,067
Forbidden Planet,
2310
01:51:09,100 --> 01:51:12,043
I was a huge fan of
Twilight Zone, the TV series
2311
01:51:12,067 --> 01:51:13,500
the reruns of that
when I was a kid.
2312
01:51:13,533 --> 01:51:16,900
And I have to say, you know, The
Monsters Are Due on Maple Street
2313
01:51:16,933 --> 01:51:20,500
and Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, Will
the Real Martian Please Stand Up?
2314
01:51:20,533 --> 01:51:23,833
Those old, kind of, you
know, Cold War era stories
2315
01:51:23,867 --> 01:51:26,800
that were also, again,
speaking to people's fears.
2316
01:51:26,833 --> 01:51:30,700
That was the stuff that got me into
science fiction and into this topic.
2317
01:51:30,733 --> 01:51:33,700
Because there is something
about extraterrestrials
2318
01:51:33,733 --> 01:51:36,600
that's also very human.
Does that make sense, Nick?
2319
01:51:36,633 --> 01:51:40,043
Yes, it does. We look out but
at the same time, we look in.
2320
01:51:40,067 --> 01:51:46,043
It's not just about aliens but it's
about us, who are we as a species?
2321
01:51:46,067 --> 01:51:49,333
How would we respond if we
find out that we're not alone?
2322
01:51:49,367 --> 01:51:51,667
You know, one of the things
that you mention in the piece,
2323
01:51:51,700 --> 01:51:55,200
Nick, is that some people
believe that Hollywood,
2324
01:51:55,233 --> 01:51:59,043
you know, is part of a kind
of conspiracy to acclimate us
2325
01:51:59,067 --> 01:52:02,400
to the possibility of an
extraterrestrial arrival.
2326
01:52:02,433 --> 01:52:04,200
I'm not sure I put
much stock in that.
2327
01:52:04,233 --> 01:52:05,900
- Do you think that's true?
- No.
2328
01:52:05,933 --> 01:52:09,233
Not really to
acclimate us to that
2329
01:52:09,267 --> 01:52:12,833
or even indoctrinate us
to say they're a threat.
2330
01:52:12,867 --> 01:52:15,467
Bur look, I think that
there are so many movies.
2331
01:52:15,500 --> 01:52:18,133
Some with good aliens,
some with bad aliens
2332
01:52:18,167 --> 01:52:20,833
that it's a funny
indoctrination campaign
2333
01:52:20,867 --> 01:52:22,667
if we're getting all
these mixed messages.
2334
01:52:22,700 --> 01:52:25,167
Can I jump in really
quick though and say
2335
01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:27,933
it's not the first time Hollywood
worked with the government
2336
01:52:27,967 --> 01:52:30,367
to pull the wool over
people's eyes. So who knows?
2337
01:52:30,400 --> 01:52:31,843
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
2338
01:52:31,867 --> 01:52:33,800
- Argo.
- Oh, Argo.
2339
01:52:33,833 --> 01:52:36,800
I thought you were going moon
landing. I was getting very worried.
2340
01:52:36,833 --> 01:52:39,833
- No, no, no.
- Don't go crazy on me here.
2341
01:52:39,867 --> 01:52:42,767
I'm talking about other
times they made deals
2342
01:52:42,800 --> 01:52:45,967
with the U.S. to try
to accomplish things.
2343
01:52:46,067 --> 01:52:47,833
- But not that.
- Not that.
2344
01:52:47,867 --> 01:52:50,967
If this was a
Hollywood conspiracy,
2345
01:52:51,067 --> 01:52:54,567
all movies would be E.T. right,
they would all be warm and fuzzy.
2346
01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:56,233
We wouldn't have Species.
2347
01:52:56,267 --> 01:52:58,667
Or all the other
way to ourselves.
2348
01:52:58,700 --> 01:53:01,043
That's right. That's exactly
right. We'd be terrified by that.
2349
01:53:01,067 --> 01:53:04,433
We're going to take a break. A pleasure
as always talking to both of you.
2350
01:53:04,467 --> 01:53:08,500
Okay, so what television show,
movie, pop culture moment
2351
01:53:08,533 --> 01:53:11,043
do you think is the
most accurate depiction
2352
01:53:11,067 --> 01:53:12,833
of what's really out
there? Tell us now
2353
01:53:12,867 --> 01:53:16,633
using #UFOsDeclassifiedLIVE
on Twitter.
2354
01:53:16,667 --> 01:53:19,043
And after the break, I'll
be speaking with the man
2355
01:53:19,067 --> 01:53:23,133
who is largely responsible for
initiating the pentagon report,
2356
01:53:23,167 --> 01:53:26,900
former senate majority leader
Harry Reid will be joining us.
2357
01:53:26,933 --> 01:53:29,233
And you won't believe
what he has to say.
2358
01:53:29,267 --> 01:53:31,167
And our panel will
reach their verdict
2359
01:53:31,200 --> 01:53:34,567
when UFOs Declassified:
LIVE returns.
2360
01:54:05,067 --> 01:54:08,400
Welcome back to UFOs
Declassified: LIVE.
2361
01:54:08,433 --> 01:54:10,533
I'm Josh Gates. As
you know by now,
2362
01:54:10,567 --> 01:54:14,267
information on UAPs became
declassified this week
2363
01:54:14,300 --> 01:54:17,133
when the pentagon UFO
report became public.
2364
01:54:17,167 --> 01:54:19,043
Right now, we're going
to speak to the man
2365
01:54:19,067 --> 01:54:21,233
who many call the man the
god father of this report,
2366
01:54:21,267 --> 01:54:24,333
former governor and senate
majority leader Harry Reid.
2367
01:54:24,367 --> 01:54:26,467
Thank you for
joining us, Senator.
2368
01:54:26,500 --> 01:54:28,043
Really my pleasure.
2369
01:54:28,067 --> 01:54:30,076
Look, I think a lot of
Americans were pretty surprised
2370
01:54:30,100 --> 01:54:35,867
to wake up a few days ago to see the
pentagon put out an official report on UFOs.
2371
01:54:35,900 --> 01:54:39,100
When you got the ball
rolling on this in 2007,
2372
01:54:39,133 --> 01:54:41,533
did you think it would lead
to a public report like this?
2373
01:54:42,533 --> 01:54:47,100
I didn't give it
much thought frankly.
2374
01:54:47,133 --> 01:54:53,433
I was just trying to show that
the occurrences of these UFOs
2375
01:54:53,467 --> 01:54:56,700
was not something that was a
figment of someone's imagination.
2376
01:54:56,733 --> 01:54:59,043
They actually took place.
2377
01:54:59,067 --> 01:55:04,500
And as we know now, we spent $22
million of the government's money
2378
01:55:04,533 --> 01:55:08,067
and we proved that these
are actual sightings
2379
01:55:08,100 --> 01:55:10,600
that people had for
a long, long time.
2380
01:55:10,633 --> 01:55:13,867
So, I didn't know if they
had cut out the report
2381
01:55:13,900 --> 01:55:19,400
the report frankly that they came out
with is pretty sparse, pretty slim.
2382
01:55:19,433 --> 01:55:23,400
And I would hope that
it is not one and done.
2383
01:55:23,433 --> 01:55:26,067
I think if we're going
to do a good job on this,
2384
01:55:26,100 --> 01:55:29,800
we need to make sure the government is
involved on it on a continuous basis.
2385
01:55:29,833 --> 01:55:33,933
And this slim, slim
report is not good enough.
2386
01:55:33,967 --> 01:55:37,300
What do you think American
should take away from this report
2387
01:55:37,333 --> 01:55:39,667
or what do you find
most interesting in it?
2388
01:55:39,700 --> 01:55:43,100
Well, I'm glad the
government is acknowledging
2389
01:55:43,133 --> 01:55:47,333
that there's something that
needs to be looked into.
2390
01:55:47,367 --> 01:55:52,800
My concern is it was
just so weak in facts.
2391
01:55:52,833 --> 01:55:58,233
If anybody reads this,
they won't know much more
2392
01:55:58,267 --> 01:56:00,667
after reading it than
before they started.
2393
01:56:00,700 --> 01:56:04,043
And look, the report
doesn't specifically point
2394
01:56:04,067 --> 01:56:07,367
to an extraterrestrial
origin for these sightings.
2395
01:56:07,400 --> 01:56:12,367
Do you think it exonerates foreign
players though, China or Russia?
2396
01:56:12,400 --> 01:56:16,833
Could these be, you know, high-tech
objects from other countries?
2397
01:56:16,867 --> 01:56:19,667
- I don't think we can eliminate anything.
- Right.
2398
01:56:19,700 --> 01:56:21,467
I think we should
have an open mind.
2399
01:56:21,500 --> 01:56:26,300
My personal feeling is I doubt that
it is China or Russia or France.
2400
01:56:26,333 --> 01:56:29,233
But if it is, that's
the way it is.
2401
01:56:29,267 --> 01:56:33,700
I just think technologically
they're not that far ahead of us.
2402
01:56:33,733 --> 01:56:36,167
In fact, I don't think
they're ahead of us at all.
2403
01:56:36,200 --> 01:56:39,467
And so, where do you think
we go from here, senator?
2404
01:56:39,500 --> 01:56:42,733
I believe that we must
continue working on this.
2405
01:56:43,233 --> 01:56:44,767
We, uh...
2406
01:56:46,800 --> 01:56:48,900
We don't know what they are.
2407
01:56:48,933 --> 01:56:52,733
But for us, now we have to walk
away from with this slim report.
2408
01:56:52,767 --> 01:56:55,167
It would not be in keeping with,
2409
01:56:55,200 --> 01:56:57,433
what I believe is good
scientific evidence.
2410
01:56:57,467 --> 01:56:58,800
We need to continue
2411
01:56:59,800 --> 01:57:01,600
not worried about
2412
01:57:01,633 --> 01:57:04,043
conspiracy theories
and little green men.
2413
01:57:04,067 --> 01:57:06,067
We have to worry
about... science.
2414
01:57:06,100 --> 01:57:08,333
What are they? We
know they exist.
2415
01:57:08,367 --> 01:57:10,167
So, let's continue working
2416
01:57:10,200 --> 01:57:12,240
scientifically to figure
out what the hell they are.
2417
01:57:12,733 --> 01:57:13,600
Absolutely.
2418
01:57:13,633 --> 01:57:15,233
Senator, a pleasure
speaking with you.
2419
01:57:15,267 --> 01:57:16,633
Thanks very much for your time.
2420
01:57:17,133 --> 01:57:18,133
My pleasure.
2421
01:57:19,433 --> 01:57:21,900
Well, great to get
Senator Reid's input,
2422
01:57:21,933 --> 01:57:23,600
and if nothing else,
the Pentagon report
2423
01:57:23,633 --> 01:57:25,833
has formalized a number of goals
2424
01:57:25,867 --> 01:57:28,467
for future UAP Research.
2425
01:57:28,500 --> 01:57:31,043
The Pentagon says they plan
to standardize the reporting,
2426
01:57:31,067 --> 01:57:33,900
consolidate the data
and deepen the analysis.
2427
01:57:33,933 --> 01:57:36,600
They intend to expand
their collection of data,
2428
01:57:36,633 --> 01:57:40,043
and increase the investments
in Research and Development.
2429
01:57:40,067 --> 01:57:41,967
Okay. So, Jim, let
me start with you.
2430
01:57:42,067 --> 01:57:42,900
Do you think that's true?
2431
01:57:42,933 --> 01:57:44,933
Do you think that
Congress will continue
2432
01:57:44,967 --> 01:57:47,433
funding UAP Research
like the report says?
2433
01:57:47,467 --> 01:57:49,500
Oh, yeah. I think the
cat's out of the bag.
2434
01:57:49,533 --> 01:57:52,833
And as long as UAPs are
buzzing nuclear sites,
2435
01:57:52,867 --> 01:57:57,067
military installations
and carrier strike groups,
2436
01:57:57,100 --> 01:57:59,367
you're going to have
money for research.
2437
01:57:59,400 --> 01:58:00,709
So you think this is just
the beginning of this?
2438
01:58:00,733 --> 01:58:02,300
I think this is just
the beginning, yes.
2439
01:58:02,333 --> 01:58:03,567
Okay, so...
2440
01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:04,840
Time has come, moment of truth,
2441
01:58:04,867 --> 01:58:06,667
everybody here on the panel,
2442
01:58:06,700 --> 01:58:07,967
one of you is an alien.
2443
01:58:08,067 --> 01:58:09,967
No, that's not what
we're talking about.
2444
01:58:10,067 --> 01:58:11,633
Given what we have
learned tonight.
2445
01:58:11,667 --> 01:58:15,100
Experts, I can't wait to hear
your take in all of this.
2446
01:58:15,133 --> 01:58:20,200
Do you believe that these
UAPs are extraterrestrials?
2447
01:58:20,233 --> 01:58:21,933
Do you believe that
they're adversaries,
2448
01:58:21,967 --> 01:58:24,767
foreign players of some kind
or something else entirely?
2449
01:58:24,800 --> 01:58:26,176
We'll start with my
good friend, Nick Pope.
2450
01:58:26,200 --> 01:58:27,133
What do you think man?
2451
01:58:27,167 --> 01:58:28,833
I'd love it to be aliens,
2452
01:58:28,867 --> 01:58:30,100
But I occasionally wonder,
2453
01:58:30,133 --> 01:58:31,567
if it isn't something
more bizarre,
2454
01:58:31,600 --> 01:58:34,833
something for which we have
neither the words nor concept.
2455
01:58:34,867 --> 01:58:37,733
So, uh, you think it could
be something else entirely?
2456
01:58:37,767 --> 01:58:38,667
Absolutely.
2457
01:58:38,700 --> 01:58:39,967
Alright. Jim, what about you?
2458
01:58:40,933 --> 01:58:43,567
I believe it's a
non-human technology.
2459
01:58:43,600 --> 01:58:46,233
- Really?
- And I wish I knew who owns it.
2460
01:58:46,267 --> 01:58:48,933
Wow, that's incredible
to hear from you.
2461
01:58:48,967 --> 01:58:51,700
You know, our intelligence
clandestine guy here.
2462
01:58:51,733 --> 01:58:53,900
I mean, that's
kind of remarkable,
2463
01:58:53,933 --> 01:58:55,043
shocking for me to hear,
2464
01:58:55,067 --> 01:58:56,800
- but that's what you believe.
- Yes.
2465
01:58:56,833 --> 01:58:57,700
That it's something other?
2466
01:58:57,733 --> 01:58:59,500
It's something
other, no question.
2467
01:58:59,533 --> 01:59:01,833
And you, my good man,
what do you think, George?
2468
01:59:01,867 --> 01:59:03,143
Well, given that
their technology,
2469
01:59:03,167 --> 01:59:05,833
that advanced technology
that is still far beyond,
2470
01:59:05,867 --> 01:59:08,567
what we can do for, has been
around at least 74 years,
2471
01:59:08,600 --> 01:59:10,167
I believe that it is non-human,
2472
01:59:10,200 --> 01:59:11,409
that could be non-human source.
2473
01:59:11,433 --> 01:59:13,100
That could mean
extra-terrestrial,
2474
01:59:13,133 --> 01:59:14,733
it could mean inter-dimensional
2475
01:59:14,767 --> 01:59:16,200
it could mean
something more exotic.
2476
01:59:16,233 --> 01:59:18,600
Ultra-terrestrial,
something as Nick said,
2477
01:59:18,633 --> 01:59:20,300
we don't know how to explain
2478
01:59:20,333 --> 01:59:22,400
but something lived
here for a long time.
2479
01:59:22,433 --> 01:59:24,167
We need to investigate
the unexplained,
2480
01:59:24,200 --> 01:59:25,567
not explain the uninvestigated,
2481
01:59:25,600 --> 01:59:27,667
and that's gonna take
a permanent program.
2482
01:59:27,700 --> 01:59:29,209
Alright, we're going
to need another special
2483
01:59:29,233 --> 01:59:31,333
to talk about
ultra-terrestrials.
2484
01:59:31,367 --> 01:59:33,100
Im... I'm... Okay, good.
2485
01:59:33,133 --> 01:59:34,933
And that brings
me to you, Jeremy.
2486
01:59:34,967 --> 01:59:36,043
What do you think
about all this?
2487
01:59:36,067 --> 01:59:37,433
What's your final analysis here?
2488
01:59:37,467 --> 01:59:39,900
Some UFOs represents
a technology
2489
01:59:39,933 --> 01:59:45,167
that outperform, outmaneuver, and outpace
our greatest war planes and weaponry.
2490
01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:48,900
Some UFOs are not
made by modern humans.
2491
01:59:48,933 --> 01:59:50,833
And the United
States Government,
2492
01:59:50,867 --> 01:59:52,600
has in their possession
2493
01:59:52,633 --> 01:59:53,667
some of these craft.
2494
01:59:54,633 --> 01:59:55,933
You believe that for sure?
2495
01:59:55,967 --> 01:59:57,133
I am certain of it.
2496
01:59:57,167 --> 01:59:59,367
Okay, let's go over
.to the big wall.
2497
01:59:59,400 --> 02:00:01,700
Jessica Chobot, what do
you make of all this?
2498
02:00:01,733 --> 02:00:04,200
Well, I'm not a scientist
so I have no problem,
2499
02:00:04,233 --> 02:00:06,000
just going into the
deep end of the pool.
2500
02:00:06,033 --> 02:00:06,800
Full alien.
2501
02:00:06,833 --> 02:00:08,400
I know it, Jess.
You're a believer.
2502
02:00:08,433 --> 02:00:09,876
- You're a true believer.
- Let's do this.
2503
02:00:09,900 --> 02:00:11,067
Let's do this, people.
2504
02:00:11,100 --> 02:00:13,100
Alright and standing next
to the true believer,
2505
02:00:13,133 --> 02:00:15,167
the voice of science,
Dr. O, what do you think?
2506
02:00:15,200 --> 02:00:16,843
Are you going to bring
us down to Earth here?
2507
02:00:16,867 --> 02:00:18,867
Oh, I think it's
all in the name.
2508
02:00:18,900 --> 02:00:21,333
Whether you call
it a UAP or a UFO,
2509
02:00:21,367 --> 02:00:23,967
it starts with U, which
stands for Unknown,
2510
02:00:24,000 --> 02:00:25,367
and that's where I stand.
2511
02:00:25,400 --> 02:00:27,200
And, so I think
we need more data.
2512
02:00:27,233 --> 02:00:29,067
Do you think there
is a possibility that
2513
02:00:29,100 --> 02:00:32,000
there is an extra-terrestrial
explanation for this?
2514
02:00:32,033 --> 02:00:35,900
I don't lean that direction
for this phenomenon,
2515
02:00:35,933 --> 02:00:39,367
but there are astrophysicists
who think there may be life
2516
02:00:39,400 --> 02:00:41,767
on our planet that we don't
even recognize as life
2517
02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:43,933
because we don't have a
broad enough definition.
2518
02:00:43,967 --> 02:00:46,533
So, I do think that the evidence
2519
02:00:46,567 --> 02:00:48,400
tells us that life is ubiquitous
2520
02:00:48,433 --> 02:00:49,700
throughout our universe,
2521
02:00:49,733 --> 02:00:53,067
but I think that intelligent,
technologically advanced life
2522
02:00:53,100 --> 02:00:54,900
is exceedingly rare.
2523
02:00:54,933 --> 02:00:57,567
Alright so, one of the
things we have about
2524
02:00:57,600 --> 02:00:59,800
in this report is
what's not in it.
2525
02:00:59,833 --> 02:01:02,533
Right? There is a classified
version of this report.
2526
02:01:05,500 --> 02:01:08,043
Do you think we're going
to see more of this?
2527
02:01:08,067 --> 02:01:10,907
Do you think there's going to be
additional material? Declassified here?
2528
02:01:13,067 --> 02:01:14,044
Oh, there's certainly
going to be more material.
2529
02:01:14,068 --> 02:01:15,109
George and I are going
to make sure of that.
2530
02:01:15,133 --> 02:01:16,809
Oh, there's certainly
going to be more material.
2531
02:01:16,833 --> 02:01:18,543
George and I are going
to make sure of that.
2532
02:01:18,567 --> 02:01:21,043
Whether It's released officially
or not, we don't know.
2533
02:01:21,067 --> 02:01:22,433
But it's coming.
2534
02:01:22,467 --> 02:01:26,133
And do you think that what wasn't
included in this public report is,
2535
02:01:26,167 --> 02:01:28,833
for lack of a better
word, juicy, Nick?
2536
02:01:28,867 --> 02:01:32,200
I'm sure. I believe there will be
a lot of technological information.
2537
02:01:32,233 --> 02:01:36,967
For example, about the satellite imagery
from DNI John Radcliffe mentioned.
2538
02:01:37,067 --> 02:01:38,467
So, that's something
to look for.
2539
02:01:38,500 --> 02:01:41,633
But for sure this is the beginning
of a journey here, this report.
2540
02:01:41,667 --> 02:01:43,867
This is not then end
of the conversation.
2541
02:01:43,900 --> 02:01:47,043
We've been told UFOs are
real and they require study.
2542
02:01:47,067 --> 02:01:48,367
That's what that report says.
2543
02:01:48,400 --> 02:01:50,467
All right, so much more to come.
2544
02:01:50,500 --> 02:01:51,933
Yes.
2545
02:01:51,967 --> 02:01:55,867
I have to thAnk all of you. What an
absolutely amazing journey tonight.
2546
02:01:55,900 --> 02:02:00,633
What a panel. To some, this
report represents an awakening,
2547
02:02:00,667 --> 02:02:05,800
The government finally addressing these
UAPs that have been around for years.
2548
02:02:05,833 --> 02:02:10,500
And this represents a commitment to more
research and investigation, a new day.
2549
02:02:10,533 --> 02:02:14,067
To others the report is a good
first step, let's call it,
2550
02:02:14,100 --> 02:02:17,867
but that more transparency is
needed to understand the truth.
2551
02:02:17,900 --> 02:02:21,800
And I'm sure that others still
will remain firmly skeptical.
2552
02:02:21,833 --> 02:02:25,167
I know we've got some skeptics
tonight who are probably unmoved
2553
02:02:25,200 --> 02:02:28,467
by these 143 unexplained events.
2554
02:02:28,500 --> 02:02:31,667
As for me personally, I
just wish we had more time
2555
02:02:31,700 --> 02:02:33,700
because I have a
lot more questions.
2556
02:02:33,733 --> 02:02:36,933
I want to thank Jessica Chobot
and all of our esteemed guests
2557
02:02:36,967 --> 02:02:39,567
this evening for what has
been an amazing conversation.
2558
02:02:39,600 --> 02:02:42,667
For UFOs Declassified:
LIVE, I'm Josh Gates.
2559
02:02:42,700 --> 02:02:44,433
Good night from Las Vegas.218523
