All language subtitles for The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch S03E04 Scoped Out 1080p WEB-DL x264 An0mal1.ENG

This is something sacred here.

This area is used
to keep the evil on that side.

Hey, Travis, I'm seeing the
shadow of some other aircraft.

There's nothing within

50 miles of the ranch.

[static buzzing]

-What happened?
What the heck is that?
-BRYANT: Some thing

doesn't want us to collect data
from the triangle.

The Cessna flew
62 and a half miles

-below the mesa.
-What on earth?

NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years,
the federal government

tried to find answers
and failed.

Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts
has taken over.

They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

Oh, here they are.

Pull it right in here
somewhere, Dragon.

After last week's Cessna
experiment at the triangle,

our attempt to collect
usable data of the anomaly

once again left us

with more questions
than answers.

Guys, I appreciate
y'all coming out.

So, to help us get a better
look at the triangle anomaly,

we invited Richard Tenney,
Chuck Hards and David Moulton

from the Salt Lake Astronomical
Society out to the ranch.

They're going to help us

with tonight's experiment
at the triangle.

So, I have to ask you
what you know about the ranch.

What have you heard
about this place?

Uh, I'm a little familiar
with the history of it,

uh, just because, you know,
being a Utah native and...

and hearing the stories
over the years.

DAVID:
I have some family in the area,

some friends,

and they-they tell me stories
of things

they've seen on the road and-and

-weird stuff.
-Really?

So, you know something
of the phenomenology

that we've been studying here?

Yes, a little bit.

RICHARD:
And I'm gonna be candid.

This is all brand-new to me.

I have no prior knowledge
of what's going on.

Better yet.

So, guys, uh, we have an anomaly

in the sky, uh,
in that direction,

almost due west from right here.

It's in an area we call "the
triangle," and it's above that.

We've seen GPS anomalies
and a radio signal

actually coming from that area.

What we would like to do is look

through the anomaly
at an astronomical object

and see if they seem to look
the way they're supposed to,

or if they're obscured, moved,
or something along those lines.

So, here's the plan.

You guys start getting set up,

and what I would like to do is,

so you can see the area
that we're talking about

that has the anomaly in it,

Dragon and I are gonna take
a rocket out there

and set it up in-in this spot

and launch it right underneath
where we are.

You guys try and capture it
through the telescope.

-That make sense?
-Yeah.
-Yes, sir.

-Okay.
-All right, let's go!

TRAVIS:
The plan

is to have Richard,
Chuck and Dave

focus their
high-powered telescopes

up at that mile-high area

above the triangle while

we launch more rockets
in an attempt

to stimulate UAP activity.

That's very impressive.
How tall is that?

-Ten feet?
-Yeah.

It's a hundred inches
from the mirror down there

up to the IPC here, actually.

TRAVIS:
This was a big experiment

with a lot of moving parts.

CHUCK:
I'm up and running.

TRAVIS:
These guys have brought out
six different telescopes

that can capture
high-definition imagery

all the way out to outer space.

Each one also features
a computerized database

of planets and constellations

so it can lock
onto a known object

in the sky above the triangle

and track that object's
motion precisely.

Any change in the appearance
of that object's motion means

that there's a gravitational
anomaly above the triangle,

bending the starlight
in a way it shouldn't.

-Hey, Kaleb.
-KALEB: Hey, Erik.

You, uh, called us in?

Yeah, so, I've got
this tracking cam ready.

-Okay.
-This is the PTZ
that goes with the all-sky.

So, this is the one
that you're gonna pair

-with the sky-facing one?
-Yeah, yeah. So, we've got

that fish-eye camera's looking
basically horizon to horizon.

-It's that one
right there, right?
-Right here.

TRAVIS:
Meanwhile, Erik had Thomas

and Kaleb help install his new,

all-sky UAP tracking
camera system

so we could have even more eyes

on the anomalous area
above the triangle.

This is a smart system.
It will hopefully help us

to avoid missing anything
that comes in our airspace.

Well, this is...
this is amazing.

If you're ready to put that up,

-I'll work with you
in here on it.
-THOMAS: Okay.

-We'll go get her done.
-All right.

TRAVIS:
It's at the triangle

where we've repeatedly detected
dangerously high energy spikes

about 5,000 feet up...

Look at the sky, y'all!

-UAP right there!
-KALEB: Yup, I see it.

TRAVIS:
...and also launched rockets
that stimulated numerous UAPs

to suddenly appear.

You've got to be [bleep] me.

I'm really excited
to have these.

It'll just be nice to be able
to actually zoom in on stuff

and track it across the sky.

Hey, Erik?

Uh,

Tom's about
to put the camera up for you.

Perfect. I've got him in view.

ERIK:
Adding to our

surveillance program, we have
set up an all-sky camera.

This is a fish-eye lens that
sees from horizon to horizon

and straight overhead,

taking in the entire canopy
of the sky.

We're also adding
a directable telescopic camera

that is able to identify,
track and follow objects

that appear in the sky
over the ranch.

-Well, we just about
got it, Kaleb.
-Okay.

ERIK:
We're looking at the skies
over the triangle

and at the ranch
in a lot of different ways.

Hey, Erik, it's Kaleb.
We got the camera up.

Can you see on the network?

I've got it, guys.

It looks good. We can see
pretty much everything

we need to see
from that position.

Awesome.

That's one thing
off the checklist.

TRAVIS:
This new all-sky
camera system is really vital

to our experiment.

The telescopes will be
locked onto the anomaly

above the triangle with
a very narrow field of view,

so if UAP appear
anywhere else on the ranch,

we need to make sure
we can capture them on video.

[cattle mooing]

The camera system
will also be able

to monitor the ranch cattle.

Because of how the cows
have acted in the past

when UAP appeared, they will
make the perfect biosensors

during the experiment.

All right. That's all we got.

TRAVIS: I guess we'll just
set it up in the center.

BRYANT:
Yeah.

TRAVIS:
As we prepare for our
most advanced experiment yet,

Dragon and I went down
to the triangle

to set up for the first rocket.

-BRYANT: Put it down
so it's... There we go.
-Try to get it level.

You think that's far enough
away from the truck?

Uh, well,

that depends
on who you're asking.

[laughs]

-Whose truck is it?
-[laughs]

Since we only have
an approximate zone of interest,

this experiment
will have two goals.

First, we want to record
the best footage possible

of any UAP that might appear.

If you want
to lock it about right there

while we work on it,
that's fine.

-That's fine. I'll just lock it.
-Oh, see if you can

-get it about like that, Bryant.
-Yup.

All right, we got the motor.

And second, we want
to pinpoint the exact spot

that these things
could be originating from.

I'm thinking that right there

-is a pretty-pretty good angle.
-Okay.

-You locked in? All right.
-Yup, we're locked.

I'm gonna turn the lights on
and, uh, we'll get ready to go.

Oh, and there's...
there's a special light

we put in the nose cone, too.

For this rocket,

we have LED lights
blinking all over the thing

so the astronomers out here
can find the thing in the sky.

It's fine. All right.

And then we'll turn these on
right before we go.

Once we were done,
all we needed was the dark

and the telescopes ready to go.

You can call 'em and tell 'em

that we're gonna be good
to go whenever they are.

BRYANT:
Okay.

-JIM: Hey there, Tom and Kandus.
-KANDUS: Hi, Jim.

-Hello, neighbors.
-Hello.

-How you doing, kiddo?
-Hi.

-Good to see you.
-Good to see you.

-Nice to see you.
-TRAVIS: While we waited

for the sun to go down,

Jim Morse, Tom Lewis

and Kandus Linde were continuing

their effort to meet with
the members of the community

who have their own stories
about bizarre phenomenon.

It's nice to have Addy
come up here and visit with us

and compare notes as neighbors.

-Yeah. Thanks
for having me over.
-You're our closest,

closest neighbor. We run
into you every once in a while.

TOM:
Addy is part of the Ute tribe,

and she has a few things

she wants to share with us
that may help us

with the investigation
here on the ranch.

She just had witnessed something

that I thought
would be pretty profound.

Yeah, well, it was actually
a couple nights ago.

-Yeah.
-Oh, so what happened
the other night?

Well, me and a friend was
bringing in groceries,

and he called me out
to look up at the sky.

And there was
a big old bright light.

-Hear anything?
-It was so quiet.

Yeah, and it was heading
up north, and then it stops.

But usually, when you see
an anomaly out here,

they disappear because it's like
they know you see it.

But this one didn't do that.

And then it started
to go faster north.

And then it's gone.

Have you seen this type
of thing before?

Yeah, I've actually seen it
before a few times.

And my grandpa would talk about

different anomalies
he would see and things

that would happen
around the farm.

Like what, as an example?

One night, he was out
in the four-wheeler,

and, uh, he noticed the cows
were looking up at the sky,

and there was a big old bright
ball very low to the ground.

And it rose up,
and then it just disappeared.

Wow.

TOM:
Her story rings a bell because

we had this strange incident
with this cow

that just died all of sudden.

Still don't know
why it happened.

TRAVIS:
What in the world?

TOM:
There were some strange events

around the death of that cow.

Is that black object the cow?

ERIK:
Yeah, the cow is right here.

I'm gonna do this, uh,
very slowly, frame by frame.

So here, I can't help
but also notice

that there's
something happening here.

-TRAVIS: Oh, whoa! Look at that!
-Yeah, there it is right there.

TOM:
I mean, having correlated
stories, very similar--

that was very interesting.

So we have the lights
with the cow.

Anything else come to mind?

My grandpa's seen some, uh,

I guess you'd say
it was a skinwalker.

[sighs] I don't know if I want
to talk about this one, though.

JIM:
People out here
that have lived in the area--

they've grown up with these...

this-this phenomenon
called "the skinwalker."

This is when the Navajo

and the Utes got
into more than a skirmish.

Back in the mid-1800s,

the Navajos ended up
cursing the Utes.

The skinwalker is
a shape-shifter.

So there's a fear associated
with talking about these things.

-It is scary to talk about.
-Yeah.

On the flip side, though,
what we're trying to do is

we're trying to get
as many stories as we can get.

-Yeah.
-You know, because it...

it helps paint a picture
of what's maybe going on

in, you know,
in this particular area

on Skinwalker Ranch,

-but the Uinta Basin in general.
-Yeah.

-Yeah.
-KANDUS: Mm-hmm.

And the more people talk
about that, the easier it gets

-for other people
to talk about it.
-ADDY: Okay.

Um, my grandpa went out

in the field,
and he noticed a tall,

dark, you know, figure
watching him cut hay.

And each time he would go
around the... the field,

it would get closer and closer.

-Mm-hmm.
-And he said it looked like
it had, like, a long cloak.

And then, when he got closer
to it, it just vanished.

Disappeared. I don't know why.

There is some scary things
that have gone on

-over the years on this ranch.
-ADDY: Yeah.

BRANDON:
To have witness testimony

to the reality of what
we're experiencing at the ranch

is both thrilling,
and it's also terrifying.

I mean, what we're
dealing with here is

something not
to be taken lightly.

Well, thank you for coming up.
You are our closest neighbor.

-Yeah.
-You know?

Really appreciate it.
It's always good to see you.

-It's good to see you guys.
-Thanks for being so receptive.

-I'm gonna walk Addy home.
-Thanks, Jim.

BRANDON:
What lies ahead?

I think we have before us
a great challenge

to understand
the origin and the agenda

associated with the phenomena,

with what we are
interacting with

on Skinwalker Ranch.

ERIK:
Hey, Bryant, go ahead.

BRYANT: We're gonna say
another two-minute

time frame starting

-here shortly.
-TRAVIS: As soon as it was

dark enough to see the stars,

it was time
to start the experiment.

I want to fire rockets
straight up

from the inside of the triangle

while the astronomers
view and capture

incredibly close images
of the anomaly.

And hopefully, they can record
something we can analyze later.

And you've got a good view
of their position?

-Yeah, I think.
-Great.

Whenever they're ready.

All right, so let's lock it
about-about right there.

-Like that? Yeah.
-Yup, the wind's picking up

a little bit more.

Hey, Bryant, Travis,

you guys ready for launch?

We're waiting on him.

Yeah, we are, Erik.
Anytime you're ready,

we can start the timer,
go radio silence,

and we will launch.

Please stand by.
Give me a moment.

I'm having trouble getting my,
uh, computerized mount aligned.

Hey, Bryant, please hold.
We're not ready.

-Holding the count.
-No problem.

We'll hold. Just let us know.

Don't let me distract you,
but if you can describe briefly,

what is the function
that you're trying to do

-that it's not doing?
-Uh, when we...

When I first set up the mount,

-I have to aim it
at a couple of stars.
-Uh-huh.

And that builds the model
of the sky in the computer.

It's not letting me do that.

I've had this particular
telescope over ten years now,

and I have never had
a problem like this.

[musical chime]

-Okay, now it's moving.
-It's not the light

-that's throwing it off, is it?
-No.

ERIK:
It becomes clear

that things are getting
really strange, really fast.

And we're having difficulty
performing even the most basic

calibration exercises
with the telescopes in order

to locate themselves in space.

For some reason,
this doesn't surprise me.

BRYANT:
Hey, we're all set up here
to launch this rocket

whenever you guys are ready
with your equipment.

ERIK:
We're not ready.

The object I just slewed to
a little while ago

is now no longer
in the database.

This is junk right now.

This is just thousands of
dollars' worth of junk.

So, what do you mean
that it's not in there?

This has thousands of objects
in the database.

-Stars, planets,
galaxies, everything.
-Yeah.

And if you enter it and hit it,
it will slew to that object.

I had it on one earlier,

and that object is no longer
in the database.

-They're listed alphabetically.
-The one that you started with?

Right. It had to be in there
for me to slew to it.

-Does this operate off GPS?
-No, no.

We're doing it all manual
so that we don't have

to rely on GPS.

The one I'm looking for
is called "Rasalgethi."

The one we want is not there.

-Has it ever done this before?
-The one that's right...

No, but that's the star
that's where the anomaly is.

So, the star above the anomaly
is not showing up there?

Not in the database.

-And it was a little while ago.
-[laughing]

Are you hearing this, Erik?

ERIK:
I find it really mysterious that

as soon as we attempt
to lock on to stars

that are above the triangle,

they are being deleted one at
a time from the star catalog

on the internal memory
of his telescope computer.

I don't even know
how that's possible.

What is gaining access
to the memory of this system?

It doesn't want me
to slew to the anomaly.

See, that's the one we want.

-And that's the one
not showing up?
-It's not there.

Hey, Erik, we are ready

to roll
when you guys tell us to.

Another star just disappeared
from the database.

You have got to be kidding me.

There's nothing
in the anomaly area

that is in the database anymore.

Now, you're not connected
to network?

You're not pulling anything
from the cloud,

-or anything
that would be updating?
-Nothing.

As soon as I try to point it
to the anomaly area, uh,

any-any object...
And that's a big piece of sky.

There are a lot of things
in the catalog

in that part of the sky,

and I can find things
all around the perimeter of it,

but nothing in the middle.

THOMAS:
We're dealing
with an issue over here.

As these stars are tracking
into the anomaly, they are

disappearing off the menu
of the telescope.

We're not even able

to train the telescope
on the stars because

as the stars enter that area,

they are disappearing
off the menu of the telescope.

That's actually crazy.
So, let me get this straight.

Ask them if they mean
it's disappearing from the menu

in the computer
from the telescopes

of potential stars
they can look at,

or if they're literally
disappearing?

They are disappearing
from the menu,

disappearing
from the internal catalog

in the computer
that's running the scope.

TRAVIS:
It was baffling that telescopes

of this caliber, design
and from different manufacturers

would all glitch like that.

In fact, we've had so many
sophisticated equipment failures

take place
during our experiments

that it's almost become a sign
that something strange is about

to happen on the ranch.

We really need
to launch this rocket.

Come on, Dragon.
Let's get this rocket ready.

Be advised, guys.

We're about to shoot the rocket
and shoot it right through

-whatever this is!
-No.

Hurry up.
What if something happens?

We need to launch
this rocket now.

We need to launch
this rocket now.

I want to go!

When the professional grade

astronomical telescopes failed,
I knew this could be

one of those times

where ranch activity
really starts to kick up.

Tell them to get ready
for a countdown.

We're gonna launch
in two minutes.

Okay, we're gonna launch
this rocket in two minutes.

TRAVIS:
So I wanted to start
launching rockets

as fast as we could

and see if we can get a response

from the anomaly
above the triangle.

Five, four,

three,

two, one.

TRAVIS:
See, that one shot up there.

There it is.

KALEB:
All right.

Are you capturing stuff?

-This scope is pretty dead.
I mean...
-Dead?

I aimed it manually
in the, in the anomaly area,

and then
the camera wouldn't work.

I-I couldn't get a,
I couldn't get a feed

from the camera to the laptop.

RICHARD: And this camera
is suddenly not working

-when I'm pointing it
over there.
-CHUCK: Really?

-Yeah.
-Your camera's not working?

RICHARD:
This one's not
working on the... over...

So, when you point this
towards the triangle,

-it's not working?
-Nothing's showing up
on the camera.

RICHARD:
It's hard to explain
why so many things go wrong

anytime we tried
to swing the telescopes

in the direction of the anomaly.

You know, we were able
to image fine outside of that,

but the minute
we get inside there,

a number of
mechanical problems, uh,

seemed to occur,
which is i-inexplicable.

All three of you
have had glitches here

that you don't see other places?

-Never had them before.
-Yeah.

ERIK:
I can't get any of the cameras

at the bait pen to come up.

You're not getting a response

from any of our cameras
out there?

No. No.

Everything's dead out there.

I can't get through to anything.

So, when he pointed
that big telescope

-towards the triangle...
-Mm-hmm.

...the screen went black.

Now, that is really spooky.

Makes you feel crazy.

Hey, Travis, uh, we're not even
able to train the telescope

on the stars.

So what's going
into the computer

and telling the computer
and the telescope

that the star isn't there?

I've never heard
of such a thing.

Since the telescope computers

wouldn't align with the stars,

the astronomers
had to align them manually,

but when they moved
the telescopes

to look at the anomaly,
the telescopes failed.

Their cameras
wouldn't get an image

through the triangle anomaly.

Before it was the computers
that weren't working,

and now it's the actual cameras
connected to the telescopes.

Hey, Bryant, Travis,
do you copy?

BRYANT [over radio]:
Oh, we got you. Go ahead.

ERIK:
We can fixate on stars
elsewhere,

but not the ones
over the anomaly.

-No kidding?
-So, I think
it'd be a good idea

just to shine
the laser straight up

to provide a reference
that we can fixate on.

-That's what we're gonna do.
-Okay.

If you're ready,
we will shine it right now.

Uh, go right...
Go right up to launch rail.

Since the telescope's
computer wasn't working,

Erik got the idea
to have Kaleb aim

a military-grade laser pointer
up through the triangle

so that Chuck could
manually focus on it

to see if anything strange
could be identified

in the anomalous zone.

-There you go.
-Okay. Kaleb is shining

the laser straight up.

Can you see it?

Have you got it in there now?

-Yeah, that's it.
-Okay, good.

Yes, we can see the green laser.

Hey, Travis?

What-- Yeah. Yeah, Kaleb?

KALEB:
There's points
where it looks like the,

the beam, like,
disconnects from itself.

What? Where you are now?

KALEB:
Yeah.

TRAVIS:
What?

KALEB:
I-I don't know.

It's just weird.

Like, right there. You see that?

TRAVIS:
Yeah, I did see that.
It's like it jumps.

Yeah, right there.
It did it again.

Ah, right there, looking like
it suddenly got shorter.

See, how--
looks like it's cutting off?

KALEB:
Yeah, it's like
there's something there.

TRAVIS:
There's something there.

When Kaleb pointed the laser
up through the triangle,

we expected it
to just go straight up.

But as he's moving it around,

it looks like
it actually gets shorter,

like it's being cut off
at a certain point

by an object or something
that we can't see,

and it's right there,
in the anomalous zone

above the triangle.

Hey, guys. Y'all are not
gonna believe this.

Chances are we're gonna believe
anything you say, Travis.

TRAVIS:
Kaleb is pointing

the laser pointer
up into the sky,

and it's like it hits something
and it only goes

a certain distance, and then
he moves it and it goes further.

Uh, dude, did you see it bend?!

Dude, did you see that?!

Then the end of the laser bends.

Did you see that? [laughs]

[over radio]:
We're hitting something,

and the laser beam
is literally bending.

What in the hell is that?

-BRYANT: I can see it,
like, bending.
-Oh...

I'm watching two beams.

I am literally watching
two beams from right here.

It makes a "Y" out of the beam.

And then the laser
actually splits into a Y.

[over radio]:
We can see two beams happening

when it hits something up there.

God, I wish I could
see that from here.

That's insane, dude.

ERIK:
Travis.

Any sense of how high up
this object is?

TRAVIS:
Somewhere about 2,000 feet up.

We really need to launch
this rocket through that.

Come on. Dragon,
let's get this rocket ready.

Let's shoot it right through
where that is.

All I could think was that
maybe we finally pinpointed

the anomaly above the triangle

where the laser beam
was splitting.

So, it was definitely time
to fire a rocket

up there and see
what would happen.

I want to go.

Keep that laser beam
up there, Kaleb.

I'm gonna try to point
this rocket there.

This is not going anything like
what I would have expected.

Well, I'll tell you right now,
I got chills everywhere.

I need to tilt it just a little.

Probably right there.

-All right, Kaleb. Yeah.
-Right there, Travis.
Right there.

TRAVIS:
All right,
that's where I'm pointing.

-I'm pointing
right at that. Yep.
-Right there.

Okay. Everybody, clear back.

We've seen a lot of weird stuff,

and I'm hoping the rockets
will go right through that spot

and they can see
if something weird happens

to its trajectory through
the telescopes while it's going.

Five, four,

three, two, one.

When Kaleb pointed
the laser up into the triangle,

the beam bent, split
and appeared to hit something.

-Which should be impossible.
-That looked like
a beautiful flight.

ERIK:
That was straight up.

So we decided
to quickly launch a rocket

and see if we couldn't hit
whatever it was causing that.

-ERIK: Oh.
-THOMAS: There we go. Here.

ERIK:
Yeah.

KALEB:
I'll go grab that.

All right,
I'll tell you what, Kaleb.

Just get it and just meet us
back at the helipad.

Dragon and I will break down...

-Okay.
-...load everything up
and head back.

After our rocket launch
up into the triangle,

I was eager to go join
the others at the helipad

and see if we could get
a look through the telescopes

at what might have
caused the laser

to bend and split like that.

We're gonna head back
and then, uh,

just go back to basic

astronomical observation.

Copy that. See you soon.

All right, let's do it.

[cattle mooing]

Uh... the cattle
are acting very abnormal.

We're sitting on the helipad,

and the cows start
to really act up.

They're mooing a lot.
They're making a lot of noise.

[chuckles]: Erik,
the cows have pushed in on us.

Is it all of them
or is it just a few?

The whole herd is scattered
through the entire field.

Something has definitely
scared them

and-and stirred them up.

What the heck? They pushed
all the way around the helipad.

I'm getting something
on the 1.6.

Hey, guys,
so Thomas is out in the field.

TRAVIS:
We often talk about
these cows being biosensors.

And after what's happened
in the past with animals

on this ranch,
we always keep a keen eye

on the cattle
for any strange activity.

Suddenly, they're acting weird

while we're conducting
this experiment at the triangle,

and there's also
massive equipment failures.

My first thought was,
"We should be looking up."

Everybody, scan the skies,
scan the skies.

[mooing continues]

Look at this one right here.

I don't know what that is.

TRAVIS:
What the hell is that
in the sky?

CHUCK:
To the south.

TRAVIS:
There it is!

RICHARD:
It's moving real slow.

TRAVIS:
Well, I'm looking at it.

There's no red or green
or white lights on it.

CHUCK:
That thing is big and spherical.

TRAVIS:
Yes, it is.

It's got a black dot
in the center of it.

What in the crap?

I am seeing a double peak
near 1.6 with some side bands.

I noticed that the spectrum
analyzer is giving us once again

this mysterious
1.6 gigahertz signal.

The 1.6 is often seen in
conjunction with UAP activity.

TRAVIS:
There's no red or green
or white lights on it.

THOMAS:
It doesn't look like
it's that far away, either.

Richard spots this object
up in the sky,

and it's not blinking
like an aircraft.

It's not like anything
I've ever seen before.

And it starts to track
towards the east

and then it started
to turn towards the north.

It's definitely one of
the more incredible sightings

that I've seen here
on Skinwalker Ranch.

CHUCK:
And it's coming up
on Jupiter right now.

TRAVIS:
Yes, it is.
It's going right under Jupiter.

CHUCK:
And it's almost
as big as Jupiter.

TRAVIS:
That is bright.
That ain't an airplane.

CHUCK:
Airplanes at night have
to have navigational lights,

red and green.

And these lights will blink.

And, uh, this object that I saw,

it didn't have that deliberate
direction that an airplane has.

It-it seemed to be kind of
lazy and slow-moving,

taking its time.

It had no navigation lights,
no landing lights.

The entire object was glowing.

I still see it,
but it's getting dim.

It just disappeared.

Wow.

DAVID:
It didn't move like

anything that I've seen before,

and it-it certainly,
when-when we zeroed in on it,

it didn't look like anything
that I've seen before.

And after all this, I-I'm gonna
have to just sit down and think

-for a few minutes.
-Yeah, I don't know
how to process this.

Yeah. This is the kind of thing

that makes us feel
like it's targeted.

You know. The fact that you can
pick up a star anywhere,

but once you go to the spot
that we're trying to observe,

-it... doesn't work.
-Yeah.

How can something know
that you are pointing

that Dobsonian telescope
in that direction?

There's no electronic
setting circles,

no encoders.

There's nothing. No GP--

-There's nothing on that.
-CHUCK: Nope.

You get away from the anomaly

-and everything's normal again.
-Wow.

TRAVIS:
We were all mentally exhausted

by whatever that was

that appeared after
our final rocket launch.

It was the biggest UAP
we've seen so far,

and it appeared
to have come closer

than any of the others as well.

And with the cows
reacting the way they did,

it makes me think
that we're getting closer

to answers
here on Skinwalker Ranch.

When I first, uh,
contacted you guys

and I told you that there might
be a weird anomaly in the sky,

what-what was your thought then
versus what you think now?

I was really skeptical.

And now we're just
kind of freaked out.

Oh, it's beyond bizarre.

I don't know how to explain
something like that.

I was hoping to see things
I'd never seen before,

and I wasn't disappointed.

Until you come out here
and experience this,

you think it's, like,
all made-- you can't--

It's-it's too crazy.

You can't make this up.

I have no explanations
for anything going on out here.

All right, appreciate it, guys.
This was good stuff.

-Crazy but good.
-Crazy but good.

Yes, crazy but good.

ERIK: Come on in. I want
to get your eyes on this.

Dude, I got to tell you
what's going on

over at my trailer.

I was sleeping pretty good,
and it's like something pounded

into my trailer so hard,
the trailer actually moved.

It wasn't the sound itself
that woke you up?

-The sound woke me up.
I mean, I...
-[fingers snap]

I, like, just stood--
I mean, straight up from--

'cause it was such a bang.

It's like, uh,
something, like...

It's like I backed my Jeep into
the-the trailer or something.

I mean, the trailer
literally did that.

What time did you say it was?

It was right at 5:13 a.m.

Well, you're not
gonna believe it,

but that's about
the same time I woke up.

I had nightmares.

-Really?
-It was, like, chill bumps.

Couldn't go back to sleep,
so I've been looking around

in the,
in the sky-facing cameras,

looking at-at the stars.

And there's something
really interesting

that I haven't seen before

-that I'd like
to get your eyes on.
-Okay.

-Um, it...
-Well, I see
you're looking at Orion.

-ERIK [chuckles]: Yeah.
-Okay.

-There, there. All right.
-TRAVIS: Ho!

-What was that?
-Okay, that's what
I'm trying to figure out.

Yeah, look how bright-- that's
the brightest thing in the sky.

So, if I go through
frame by frame.

TRAVIS:
Wow.

Look at-- I mean, that's a
greater magnitude than Jupiter.

The flash of light that Erik
captured above the ranch

on his new surveillance
camera system was not only

one of the most
incredible anomalies

that we've documented so far,

but the time it appeared
was at the exact moment

in the morning
when something hit my trailer.

What could be that bright

and still just be setting
in one spot in the sky?

We don't have spacecraft
that can do an orbit like that.

-ERIK: Mm-hmm.
-Right?

Where's it coming from?

This phenomena was
even more intense

than the UAP we saw
just hours earlier

with the rest of the team.

Could it really be connected
to Erik's nightmares

or the force
that shook me awake?

I don't know.

But it made
this night of experiments

even more compelling,
and is pretty convincing

that when we poke this ranch,
it responds.

Travis, every time
we get something new like this,

-I-I put it in front of Brandon,
in front of everybody.
-Oh...

-We got to get
everybody's eyes on this.
-Yeah. [stammers]

You know, we got to show
Dragon and Tom.

ERIK:
This is a first of its kind.

All right, appreciate it, Erik.
That's amazing, Erik.

That's an amazing find
right there.

[helicopter whirring]

TRAVIS:
Later that afternoon,
we asked Brandon

to drop everything,
come to the ranch

to see the data we collected.

Welcome back.

These were things that we knew

he would want to see for himself
as soon as possible.

BRANDON:
Hey, guys.

I understand that you have
a few things to show me.

As always. [laughs]

BRANDON:
Uh, let's dive in.

TRAVIS:
Uh, we invited, uh,

some astronomers
in a, in the local

Utah astronomy organization

to bring some very high-tech
telescopes

-with camera platforms.
-And these are big telescopes.

We set up to launch some rockets
up through the anomaly

at the triangle,
and they would see this

with these very calibrated
and expensive, uh, telescopes.

And something erased
the information

from a computer that's not
connected to any network.

Really?

It appears that something

is deliberately meddling
with our systems,

with the third-party experts
and their systems,

every time they're brought
on the damn ranch.

And with all
the craziness going on,

we caught on camera a UAP,

but this is something
that I saw with my own eyes,

and it's probably
the most significant UAP

that I have seen
in my entire time on the ranch.

-So, I've got it cued up.
-You've captured the footage?

-It's right here.
-BRYANT: We have it.

Great. Show me.

BRANDON:
Wow.

You have got to be kidding.

THOMAS:
It-it was so bright,
and it looked so close.

TRAVIS:
This is a spherical-shaped
object with structure.

-I-I can, I can zoom in
on this if you'd like.
-Yeah, zoom in on it.

TRAVIS:
And look at-- there's a dot
in the middle of it

that everybody could see
with their own eyes.

-You see right there?
-BRYANT: You see where...

TRAVIS:
You can definitely see that dot

in the middle of it right there.

If I had not seen it
with my own eyes,

I might would be tempted to say,

"Okay, this is an optical
phenomena in the camera lens

that is out-- slightly
out of focus or something."

But it looked like that
to your own naked eye.

It was so bright,
it had subtense.

Look at that.

-THOMAS: Well, and...
-That is extraordinary.

THOMAS:
And caught on multiple cameras.

I'm telling you, watching it
with my eyes, standing there,

not trying to hold a camera,

the strange erratic movement
i-is what really cemented to me

that there is something
extremely strange about this.

TRAVIS:
I-I would tell you
that I think there's enough data

in the video footage that-that
this is more than a UAP,

that this is a UFO.

This is an unidentified
flying object.

It's not just
some aerial phenomena.

Wow.

It continues
to shock me to this day

that we saw,
yet again, another UAP.

And that's not
the only thing that happened.

It gets better.

You know, the strangeness
just continues.

We have something to show you

that I've personally
never seen before.

In fact, I didn't even think

something like this
was possible.

So, this is a little complex,
but, boy, is it a story.

Yeah, so I'll start
from my perspective.

-Okay.
-Uh, while I was asleep
in my trailer,

something immediately
made me raise

straight up out of bed,
fight-or-flight reflex.

And let me tell you,
as soon something--

anything like this ever happens
to me, I always say,

"Hey, telephone,
what time is it?"

And it tells me 5:13 a.m.

ERIK:
At about

ten minutes after
5:00 in the morning,

I was asleep just outside
of the main control room,

and I startled awake

from what you might
consider a night terror.

I decided I would go and, uh,

look at
the surveillance cameras.

As I was looking,
something caught my eye,

and it was a flash.

TRAVIS:
And he said, "Let me show you

what I saw in the cameras."

ERIK:
I will show you
the actual footage.

I want to get your eyes on it.

I'm going to frame-advance
into this so you can see

exactly what I saw.

BRANDON:
Whoa.

-Yeah, holy cow.
-Oh, my gosh.

It is such an intense burst

that surpasses anything else
in the sky.

-Can you play that again?
-Yeah.

It's unexplainable, isn't it?
It's-it's...

This is crazy.

From everything you are saying,

there is absolutely
no conventional explanation

for this.

Uh, well, let me explain this.

Uh, so, as part of the search

for extraterrestrial
intelligence protocol,

one of the first things you do
if you think you've picked up

a radio signal from the stars

or an optical signal
from the stars

is you carefully track
its motion.

And we've got the video here
now tracking its motion

at stellar motion.

Meaning it's following
sidereal motion.

That's the motion of the stars.

We cannot build a spacecraft
that can do that.

We've been talking
about the area

over the triangle being
some sort of anomaly,

potentially a portal, uh,

one end of a wormhole,
something.

-What if that's the, uh...
-An interdimensional gateway.

-It could be an-- Yeah.
-What if-- Yeah.

What if that's
the other end of the wormhole?

There's been so much lore
around the idea

that a portal or a wormhole
between deep space

and Skinwalker Ranch
is the gateway

for all the strange phenomena
that happens here.

Could this anomaly
that Erik captured

on his Skycam be evidence
that it's true?

I don't know, but I wonder

if we're getting closer
to an answer.

This escalates the importance
of what we're doing

and the need
to bring in individuals

that can help
shine a light on this

and at least pull in
a more collaborative approach.

Yeah, let me reach out
to some folks about

some other instruments
that might be useful.

ERIK:
We've got logistics
to take care of.

-I think we need to get moving
in that direction.
-Yeah.

I know you are
on a schedule, so, uh,

I think this is
a good place for us to end.

-Yeah, let's go.
-Thanks.

-TRAVIS: Was this compelling?
-BRANDON: Yeah.

-[laughter]
-Hell yes.

ERIK:
As mysterious events continue,

I think it's absolutely true
that what we've discovered here

and what we're
doing here ongoing

could contribute to our
understanding of the universe.

TRAVIS:
We're seeing more strange
phenomena over Skinwalker Ranch,

over the triangle,
and now we're seeing

a strange flash of light

occurring over
the ranch to the south.

Are they connected?

It seems awfully likely
that they are.

We're gonna have
to find some answers

and solve this mystery
about what's going on out here.

BRANDON:
All the adversity,
the equipment malfunctions

and the great difficulties,
we still captured on camera

stunning UFO activity,

with astronomers present,
witnessing it.

Why are these things appearing?

What is the origin
and the agenda

associated with the phenomena

that we are witnessing
at Skinwalker Ranch?

I think we've just barely
scratched the surface

of exploring what secrets
the ranch holds.

[wind whistling]

THOMAS:
If we were to come in
and dig again,

would we get any response?

Where you dig
makes a difference.

It died.

BRYANT:
We're getting
a spike in radiation.

There was a spike at 3,400.

Everybody out of here now.

Erik, are you doing
something at 1.6?

I'm not broadcasting.

TRAVIS:
That's a communication signal

or something.

This is out at
the Carriage House.

What the hell is that?

You've captured a UAP on camera.
