Whoa, what was
that?! I saw something,

just boom, real
quick, across the sky.

We need a much larger
rocket that can go up through

the triangle and
multiple very large lasers.

You are proposing
something on a grand scale.

- There it goes.
- Oh. Let’s go.

Oh, my God.

Travis, you-you got to see this.

It disappeared.

What did it disappear into?

Are we seeing portals opening?

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.

- Hey, Pete.
- Hey, hey.

Yeah, it’s good
to have you back.

Can’t wait to see what
you’re packing this time.

How’s it going?

We’ve had the most
incredible year yet

investigating and stimulating

all kinds of strange phenomena
on Skinwalker Ranch.

But the weather is
about to turn really harsh,

as fall sets in, meaning
that we’re out of time

to conduct any more
large-scale experiments.

I brought some goodies.

- We can do photogrammetry.
- Now, that’s good.

So we invited technologist
Pete Kelsey back

to perform a final high-tech

3D photogrammetry drone
scan of the entire ranch.

Well, I’m excited to
have you out here.

- It’d be great to take you back to the mesa.
- Let’s go.

All right. Let’s do it.

Photogrammetry is a process

where thousands of
high-definition photographs

are taken of an area of interest

and combined to create a
detailed three-dimensional map,

potentially revealing features

that aren’t visible
to the naked eye.

- About right here is good.
- All right.

Before we have to
put our investigation

on hold until next year,

we want to get a 3D model

of every part of the ranch to
see if any anomalies appear.

If something shows up,

maybe it will help us determine

what is behind all the UAPs
and the other phenomena

that we’ve documented here.

- This looks great.
- Uh-huh.

Well, start, uh, getting set up

- and let’s do this thing.
- Okay.

Pete Kelsey has brought on
some of the most advanced

technology one
can get his hands on.

- Have a matching set, thank you.
- Okay, yeah, sure.

This drone is a
robotic flying platform

that has exquisite
spatial awareness.

That very precise
positional awareness

is essential for reconstructing

an accurate three-dimensional
model of the property.

We’re interested to find out

whether the results will
bear out anything anomalous.

Well, I’m ready
when you guys are.

Great. We need to get back

to the command center
to work on some stuff.

Maybe we’ll just
leave you to go at it.

Yeah, I’ve got all my stuff
here, so I’ll just have at it.

Okay, well, if it’s all right
with you I’ll stick around.

I don’t like leaving guests
out here by themselves.

So, if you’re okay with some
company, I’ll stay with you.

-I... I appreciate it. Thank you, sir.
-Okay, happy to.

All right. Well, we’ll
load up and head back.

So, once all the
data I’ve collected

is post-processed in a nice,
neat package, I hand that

to Erik, and he does the
heavy lifting, and that is

spending hours and hours

going through this data,
because it’s all visual.

All right, I’ve got
all green lights here.

Spinning up.

Literally it comes down to
putting eyes on the model

and looking for
anything interesting.

Have a look.

That’s so cool.

That’s amazing.

While Pete was conducting
his photogrammetry scan

of the ranch, I
went to my trailer

to have a videoconference with
author and renowned astronomer

Seth Shostak.

Hello, Seth. How you doing?

- Travis, good to see you.
- It’s been a while.

Uh, I wanted to catch
up with you and...

Now, Seth is the
senior astronomer

for the institute known as SETI.

Which stands for the Search

for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence.

I wanted to talk to him
about the mysterious

1.6 gigahertz signal

that we’ve been
detecting on the ranch,

which I believe could be some
kind of communication signal.

As you know, I’m
out here as part

of this investigation
of Skinwalker Ranch.

And we’re actually finding
some really weird stuff.

We’re finding optical phenomena

and all sorts of different
regimes of energy.

And even a strange RF
signal at 1.6 gigahertz.

And what I wanted to ask you

is, if I found a
signal that I thought

was an intelligent
communication,

what protocols

SETI would use

in a situation like that?

Uh, to start, you know,

verifying, validating
and reporting?

Well, there is a protocol.

In fact, I was the chair
of the, uh, committee

that revised those protocols

about five years ago.

First thing is, if you
pick up a signal that

you think might be ET,
you want to make sure it isn’t

a telecommunications satellite,

it isn’t the radar down

at a local airport
or anything like that.

The second thing you
do is, you tell everybody.

You would want to do that
because you want people

at other facilities

to check out the signal, too.

I see.

So, let me ask you a question.

Say we have confirmed
an optical, uh... signal.

And it’s repeatable.

If you go through
the process and you...

rule out all of the...

potential, uh, logical culprits.

The microwave
oven, an airplane...

a-a satellite, you know,
those types of things.

What would be your next
step in, in, uh, verifying?

Well, as to say, uh, you
know, you’re really critically

dependent on
being able to verify

the signal at
some other facility.

So, you would insist on
finding it somewhere else.

Right.

All right, Erik.

She’s about to broadcast it.

Seth’s suggestion

that we would want
confirmation of the 1.6 gigahertz

communication signal at
another location struck me

because that’s exactly
what happened a month ago

at the Jack FM radio station

about 11 miles north
of Skinwalker Ranch.

After the station manager
and DJ, Jenn Rook,

told me and Erik that the
same kind of signal had

infiltrated their airwaves,
we decided to see what

would happen if she
broadcast it back out.

- There it is.
- Wow.

It really changed her
waveform big-time.

Well, the next day, Jim Morse

showed us some incredible

videos of UAPs
that were recorded

by people in the
area later that night.

Jim, When was this video taken?

Last night, about 8:00 p.m.

- Really?
- That’s just a few hours

after we played that
sound on the radio, Erik.

No kidding.

Well, it sounds

as if the signal
you’re picking up is

generated locally, right?

That there’s something
in your immediate area

that is producing this signal.

Is that kind of what
you’re suggesting here?

Yep.

So imagine,

you know, an
advanced civilization

wanted to communicate

in real time,

what type of phenomenology
or telltale signs

might SETI look for?

If it’s really coming
from another society,

it would be in one direction.

And that’s kind of the clue,

that you would see it coming
from that direction on the sky.

I think that’s exactly what
I wanted to hear, Seth.

It was interesting how Seth,
a highly accredited scientist

who researches the
potential for ET life,

believed the type of
communication signal

we’ve detected would come from

a specific direction,
because that’s

exactly what
happened on the ranch.

Go back the other way.

Five weeks ago, when we detected

the 1.6 gigahertz signal,

it came from a specific spot.

It’s coming back. Right
there, right there, stop.

Where we had just launched
a rocket near Homestead Two.

- So it’s very directional.
- Yeah.

Are you kidding me?

And then, later that night,

Erik recorded an incredible UAP

moving around the homestead.

We can’t be for sure if
that communication signal

we’ve detected was what
led to the UAP appearing,

or if it represents
more evidence

that portals could really exist

on Skinwalker Ranch,
but talking with Seth

just makes me more convinced

that we are getting
closer to some answers.

That helps me a lot.

I really appreciate it.

Well, any time, Travis. You
know, it’s always my pleasure

- to speak with you.
- Yeah, me, too, man.

If we do find something
and we need to get someone

out here to verify,
uh, I’ll give you a call.

- Thanks, Travis.
- Uh-huh.

Buh-bye.

Howdy, Erik.

- Hey.
- How’s it going, Erik?

That’s a pretty picture of the
mesa that you got there, Erik.

Oh, you, you are
gonna enjoy this.

The day after Pete
Kelsey conducted

his photogrammetry
scan of the ranch,

he sent Erik all of
his compiled data files

for us to review.

Well, I’ve got only about
a billion data points.

Of course this comes out of
Pete Kelsey’s recent survey work.

This is a
three-dimensional model.

It’s point-cloud data.

What it is, is
individual points that

have been located
through a complex algorithm

coming out of all
these thousands

of pictures that he’s taken.
So you take all those images,

you stitch them together and
you get a three-dimensional

- model. Oh, yeah.
- That’s incredible.

Yeah, so, I’ve
been diving into this.

And turns out there are some

very interesting
artifacts showing up.

- Whoa! I just saw one.
- You might. Did you see it?

- Yeah. In the sky.
- Okay.

- Oh. Right there.
- Yes!

- Oh, weird.
- Yes.

That looks like that’s a whole

- bunch of points right there.
- Oh, it is.

Well, what would cause it to
do that if that’s up in the air?

That’s the question.

Look at this structure.

This phantom structure
that’s sticking up in the sky.

This is odd. I got to
tell you... There it is.

Wow, that thing is really
prominent from here, it’s like,

- it’s a... some sort
of big feature. Yeah.

You know, it looks more
than a hundred feet in the air.

That’s nuts.

One way of
interpreting this is to say

that the drone did not,
uh, properly register

its correct GPS position
when it took the pictures.

- Were you thinking that?
- I was, I was about to suggest

that we’ve had such
trouble with those drones

and their GPS
coordinates being spoofed,

- hacked or jammed.
- Yes. Yes.

What if it thought it was

somewhere else when
it took those pictures?

- But you’ve got tens of positions.
- Correct.

That-that should
cancel itself out.

Well, you’d have to have

a lingering condition
in that space

that causes some
sort of displacement,

some phantom displacement
of the reckoned position,

the measured position
of the drone in the sky.

What’s so strange
here is, if the GPS

was being spoofed
for the whole survey,

the final photogrammetry
image would be a big blur.

That’s not what’s
happening at all.

This one specific spot
over the ranch is confusing

the photogrammetry data
and confusing it from a number

of different angles, which
makes me think there’s

something really strange
about this particular area.

Another interpretation might
be if you did have some kind

of translucent effect
or object in the sky,

then I suppose it
might also cause

the algorithm to
perceive those pixels,

whose color comes
from the ground, as being

you know, somewhere
else, up in the air.

Has Pete seen this
before? Did you ask him?

That’s the other important
point. I’ve connected with Pete

and I’ve also spoken with the,

the vendor of this software,

asking, "Is this common?"

And the answer that
I’ve gotten is, "No."

Really?

This is not a common thing

in the terrestrial
surveys like this.

Are there any other
areas in his survey

that have this sort
of artifact to them?

Yes.

I want to show you
something at another location

that we’ve visited that
is part of this survey.

- Okay.
- Okay?

This is right above the
petroglyph area, right?

- Yes.
- It is.

Just on the edge
of our property.

- Right.
- And you’ll recognize

- the stone circle here.
- Yeah.

And the feature that
I want to show you

is actually very close
to this stone circle.

- See what’s hap... there you go.
- Oh, there you go.

Right there.

So let me spin us around.

- I noticed a couple things here.
- Well, now look at this.

And-and you may observe
the same thing I have.

Yeah, so line those two up,

and where are they pointing?

This feature, this artifact,

the largest stone that was
part of the, of the stone circle

and that prominent
thing that’s jetting up,

you know, further to the south.

You have three points in a line.

Wow.

Interestingly and
somewhat mysteriously,

the anomalies to the
south and to the north

of the stone circle
align perfectly

with that large center
stone in the stone circle itself.

Could be a coincidence,
but it sure is suggestive.

- What are the odds of that?
- Right.

We’ve learned not to ignore
any anomalous features

in our data even if we have
no idea what to make of them.

So that, to me, seems
like you’ve almost

drawn a ray from
the other anomaly

- through this stone...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

To this, this anomaly.

If we’ve got a line
being drawn here,

then what is that
line pointing to?

What is the line there for?

We need to mark these spots

because, you
know, what if this is

somehow mapping an anomaly
that we need to investigate.

You remember last year
when we had that expert out,

he said that the petroglyph
was depicting a portal.

So, I mean, if we’re
getting way out there,

that pillar’s alignment
with it kind of looks like,

in the data points, a spiraling
thing, portal-type feature.

That’s interesting.

Last year we had
Dr. Alan Garfinkel

come out to examine some
petroglyphs we’d discovered

on the east side of the property

right by the location

of this strange aerial
anomaly that we’re seeing.

What I’m looking
at is these curves.

It’s a metaphor for
a serpent or a snake.

Snakes represents
two different worlds,

so it’s a guardian
to the portals.

The portal is a window
into the supernatural.

Dragon is right about the
petroglyphs near this area,

but this strange structure in
Pete’s photogrammetry data

is right above a mysterious
spiral of boulders on the mesa.

I’m thinking there’s
definitely something here.

And earlier this year, Navajo
expert and historian John Dover

told us this feature may have
been constructed by ancient

Indigenous people to represent
a very specific phenomenon.

Looking at this
place in its entirety,

it struck me as a holy place.

We have basically
a spiral right here

that’s been put into
this ground here.

That spiral is indicative of...?

A portal, a dimensional
rift, an opening.

We have so much
data pointing that

there is something
up in the sky going on.

And I honestly,
I’m not so sure that

that petroglyph isn’t
telling us that there’s

- something in the sky over the ranch, you know?
- Right.

Because that’s
what it looks like.

Could Pete Kelsey have
actually captured visual evidence

that there really are portals
on Skinwalker Ranch?

And could it help explain
why we see UAPs appear

and then suddenly disappear?

Well, we owe it to
ourselves to follow up

on every data anomaly
that we come across,

particularly when
they’re as prominent

as the ones we’re
looking at here.

Erik, the data is
absolutely fascinating.

We need to meet with
Brandon and review this

and everything else
we’ve learned this year.

I think we’ve just got to do
that and follow up on this data.

- Yep.
- Let’s do it.

- Greetings, everyone.
- Hey.

I think everyone would
agree this past year has

been the most
productive year in history,

relative to the investigation
at Skinwalker Ranch.

We launched this
phase of the investigation

with former Governor Herbert.

Uh, his interest

and ongoing
engagement with this effort

has been an important
part of really elevating

the formality of this research
and how important it is.

We also have joining us today,

investigative journalist
George Knapp.

Best known as the
leading journalist

documenting the
reality of not only

the ranch, but this
type of phenomena.

I’d like to say, Governor,
by the way, you have

a really beautiful state, but
it’s an awfully weird state.

I think today will be a
very eye-opening day

and briefing for our guests.

Well, I’m so excited to hear
what you have to tell me,

and learn from
what’s taken place.

I think it’s not only
important for Utah

to find out what’s happening
within our borders, by the way,

but for America and the world.

And so what it leads
us to, who knows?

But I think it’s important
that we find out.

Yes, absolutely.

I think the best
thing to do would be,

uh, let’s just start.

We’ve done so many experiments,

captured so much video,
so much measurement data,

of unidentified
aerial phenomena.

We’ve seen so many this summer

with the various experiments
that we’ve done and so many

witnesses and
instruments capturing them

that it’s undeniable that
that’s what we have captured.

Um, I do have footage
that I can share.

I’m going to go ahead
and play it in real time.

We had just launched a rocket

over Homestead Two
and fortunately we did

have a camera
looking in that direction.

- Wow.
- It’s unbelievable.

We saw so many this summer,

I don’t know that
I could remember

accurately and go back and
count how many there’s been.

The experiments we
conducted this year led

to some of the most
compelling and confounding UAP

incidents ever documented
on Skinwalker Ranch.

Using rockets, and digging

to stimulate the activity...

Whoa! What was that?

UAPs appeared numerous
times at Homestead Two...

- Hey, look, UAP right there!
- Yep, I see it.

And above the triangle area.

Look in the sky, y’all!

We’ve seen a lot of
unidentified aerial phenomena.

Some that I would
say even qualify

as unidentified flying objects.

Erik, if you wanna show
them what it is that we saw.

You’ll notice this bright
object to the center moving

in a peculiar way and exhibiting
some peculiar characteristics.

This object, whatever it is,

appears brighter than Jupiter.

- It’s clearly moving.
- Yeah, and it is moving

in a different way than a
satellite would be moving.

There was no air
traffic in the area.

And you see no
navigation lights.

And it actually came toward us,

and then it made
a dogleg maneuver,

and then turned to the east.

We all saw with the
naked eye, this thing.

I mean, for lack
of a better term,

it looked almost
like a flying donut.

I mean, it was bright.

And then it had a
defined dark center to it.

This is a solid structure.

It was captured from
multiple camera viewpoints.

And had eyewitnesses
both on and off the ranch.

It looks like there’s
structure to it.

And large enough
and bright enough

that you could see
it with the naked eye.

- Yes. - Easily.
- Sure.

This one is the
one that I would say

is not a UAP, that it’s a UFO.

And, Erik has captured an odd
sound emanating from the ranch.

And we see it almost every time
one of these phenomena occur.

Hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey, it’s here!

We got that 1.6 thing.

Erik, are you doing
something at 1.6?

I’m not broadcasting.

I swear that sounds like
a communication signal.

We see this

1.6 or so gigahertz signal

at times when we don’t have
eyes on any kind of UAP, there’s just

some other activity as part
of our investigation going on.

For example, drilling, digging.

Could this be a fingerprint?

Or at least the trace evidence

of the technology
that is being utilized?

That-that is a, uh, possible
speculation, Brandon,

but I would say it’s one
of those correlations that

we haven’t proved that
they’re definitively tied

to each other, but
the statistics are really

getting hard to, uh, ignore.

I’ve heard these stories
about people that pick up

radio stations on the fillings
in their teeth over the years.

Uh, coming back to
the idea of frequencies,

Lue Elizondo, who
headed the AATIP program,

has indicated that there is a
frequency that they have studied

that pops up again and
again in these military

encounters with what
we’d call UAP or UFOs.

I can tell you, uh, definitively
that the UAPx guys,

they told us specifically
that they were

looking for microwaves,
so I told them,

"Just look between
one and three gigahertz,"

and they came
back to us and said,

"We had a sighting the
other night and you were right.

We picked up something
at 1.6 gigahertz."

- And this was in California.
- Wow.

So, it seems that this
1.6 gigahertz is somehow

- connected to these sightings.
- Yeah.

Well, uh, there’s some kind
of electromagnetic effects.

It’s always been
associated with the ranch.

Uh, when you think
you’re ready to document it,

it goes somewhere
else. It plays tricks on you.

Compasses spin, batteries die,

vehicles crap out,
cameras go off-line.

And whatever this force is,

whatever the source
of the intelligence,

it shows you
that it’s in charge.

It reminds me of this
recent experience...

with Dragon and Tom Lewis.

I think it’s important for...

Governor Herbert to hear

of your most recent experience,

that literally brought
you to your knees.

Yeah, it was probably,

well, probably the
scariest moment,

you know, personally... I know

- it was for you obviously, Tom.
- Definitely.

Yeah, so this day
we were drilling.

Dragon had this idea,
maybe we should go check out

Homestead Two,
see if there’s any weird

readings happening there.

We go down to Homestead Two.

Everything seems normal.
We took instruments.

We’ll see if anything
strange pops up and...

- keep in touch with them.
- Yeah.

This doggone thing
is broadcasting.

This thing shouldn’t be
broadcasting anything.

Hey, Bryant? Tom?

Do you copy?

Yeah, I got you. Go ahead, Erik.

Erik came on the
walkie and said,

"Listen to this sound."

We’ve got an RF
spectrum analyzer,

which is a receiver

that seems to be broadcasting,

instead of just receiving.

Well, just have
a listen at this.

That sound that
was broadcast over

the radio was a set of beeps.

I heard static and,
like, a roaring train.

Are you okay?

No.

My eyes went black.

I couldn’t see.

- And...
- Like you went blind?

Uh, yeah, I was a
little bit conscious still

and so I dropped to the ground

and my whole left arm was numb.

And so, at this
point, I’m scared.

I’m thinking I’m
having a heart attack.

It was, I could,
I could feel him

physically shaking.
I mean, it was...

He’s in distress.

It was all I could do
to get him to my truck.

You want to go?

Yeah. Let’s go.

I can’t feel my hand.

You, like, you can’t...
you can’t feel your hand?

I can’t feel my hand.

Do you have any chest pains?

No, but it’s hard to keep...

keep my breath, it’s...

And my vision really
didn’t come back

until I was off the ranch.

Luckily, Bryant was there,
you know, to help me.

And, uh, what had happened

is my heart, uh,
was skipping beats.

And I had had EKGs before this

and I’ve never had
this issue before.

And the doctor explained to me

that it, you know, there’s
nothing wrong with my heart,

but it was an
electrical problem.

- Really?
- And, yeah.

Fortunately, you
know, he’s okay but,

I mean, that’s, that’s
the strange thing is

it affects people so
differently and people

are tuned to whatever
energy or frequency, but...

what I find, you know,
interesting and also disturbing

is it occurred, like,
literally right when...

we were hitting the
base of the mesa where

we were trying to see what in
the world is inside that mesa.

And that’s when
all hell broke loose.

Which leads me to
think about this material

that we pulled
out of one hole...

while we were drilling
into the side of the mesa.

Boy, that thing sounds
like it’s hitting something.

Oh, what the heck is...?

In an effort to explore
a possible tunnel

or cave system beneath the mesa,

we brought in drilling
expert Aaron Blunt,

who attempted to drill
horizontally into the mesa.

That’s when his
drill bit encountered

something hard and
seemingly impenetrable.

We’re coming up about
11 inches every ten feet.

So, it sounds like you’re
describing kind of a V.

It could even be...
maybe a dome.

Not only was this hard
object dome-shaped...

What is that?

It also appeared
to be 400 feet wide

- and made out of metal.
- Oh, my.

What did you think it
was when you first saw it?

I wondered if it was like
metal flakes or something.

That’s exactly the
same impression I got.

But the biggest surprise
came when we had

a piece of the metal analyzed.

There are material
findings coming out of that

lateral drilling
exercise, surprising.

Completely unexpected.

I have to show you this.

I want to put them
on the table so...

I’m going to pass around

a few of the samples
of which we have

many, uh, into the hundreds

that have been
taken out of that what,

five or six-inch diameter hole?

We’re talking about a
six-inch hole into the mesa.

We made it back about 420 feet.

These started coming
out as we were well into

the hundreds of
feet into the mesa.

But who knows how much of it

never came back
out of the mountain.

Erik, uh, reached out, uh,

to the local university
here and had them do

an analysis with a scanning
electron microscope and do...

precise elemental analysis
makeup of this material.

The interesting thing about
the analysis that we got:

tellurium is only on one side

and europium, which
is on the other side.

Now, tellurium and
europium are two

of the most rare
materials on the planet.

And it was fused.

Can that happen naturally?

If it were going to
be made on Earth,

it would have to be done
deep under the crust,

miles deep in a
geological process.

There’s no volcanic
processes happening there

on the ranch or
in the Uinta Basin

that, uh, that we know of.

The only other natural,

uh, way to create this
would be an asteroid impact.

But what we’re missing
from this asteroid is,

uh, we’re missing nickel,
we’re missing iridium,

we’re missing some other things

that would be there
if it were an asteroid.

This bears a lot of resemblance

to things that were
made in a furnace.

As if this is

perhaps an engineered material.

You remember the
space shuttle tiles

that protected it
from heat on reentry?

This material makeup is
very similar to that ceramic.

- Wow.
- So, Governor Herbert, let me tell you,

we did another,
probably the biggest,

most complicated, most
expensive experiment

that, uh, has ever
been done at the ranch.

We had three laser systems,

and we placed them
in a triangular position

pointed up at the anomaly
in the sky over the ranch.

And then we also had

a very large rocket system

uh, so that we
could put a payload

into the anomaly
and have it linger

as the recovery system
brought it back down

with multiple
instruments. Now...

we get ready to
do the launch and...

Brandon, tell them what
happened when we counted down

- and you pushed the button.
- The second that I pushed

the button, it literally
went up and exploded.

Push and hold.

Oh!

How high did it
get... off the ground?

Maybe 30 feet?

- So it immediately blew up?
- Yeah.

Has this ever happened
before? Any of those rockets?

They’ve never had
one fail like that before.

So, it’s like somebody was
trying to keep us from getting

the instruments into the
place we want to put it.

So thank heavens we were
ready with other rockets.

- Yes.
- To continue the experiment.

Do you have that second launch?

So this is, in fact, the
footage of that launch,

as seen by one of our
surveillance cameras.

This takes place
at exactly the place

where we’ve had so many
unusual things happen.

- Is that the triangle?
- That is the triangle.

Yes.

Erik was in the command center

and saw something.

Hey, Travis, you copy?

Yeah, Erik, go ahead.

If Brandon is nearby, can
you bring him in real quick?

We’ll be right there.

Travis, you’ve got to see this.

- Okay.
- Well, there’s the lasers.

- Yeah, I’m doing instant playback. You see this?
- Oh! Yeah.

- Wow.
- What the crap is that?

This is through the lens
of a camera that is tasked

with surveying the skies.

And I’ll draw your attention
to this part of the screen.

Clearly we have an object.
Something luminous moving

towards the apex of that
configuration of lasers being

broadcast upward
from the triangle.

And it just, I mean,
it just goes away.

- Yeah.
- Wow.

It’s important to note
that during this day,

the entire airspace

not only above the ranch,
but in the general area

within the Uinta
Basin was restricted.

Clearly, there’s
no strobe on this,

but beyond that, the aircraft
transponder data receiver

that we have at the
ranch indicated no aircraft

at that location.

It’s unexplained.
What is the theory

of what the
explanation could be?

Well, what if
some of the stories

that we keep hearing about,
uh, from the ancient Native tribes,

in petroglyphs that...
From all different kinds of

folks that have been
to the ranch, that there’s

a portal access on the ranch.

What if that’s true? It
could be what we just saw!

This may be a
particular point of interest

for a wormhole or a
stargate, some type

of interstellar interaction?

One of the stories that’s
been told from the Sherman

and Bigelow era that caught
the attention of the DIA...

The Defense
Intelligence Agency...

Was about a hole in the sky.

Call it a portal.

The rancher would see
these things open up,

it’s dusk here, it’s
afternoon over there.

It’s like you’re looking in

through a hole in the
sky to another place.

And he would report
things coming in and out.

Uh, craft coming in and out
from that reality to this reality.

Well, you just referenced
an anecdotal experience,

one from a credible scientist,

but no visual evidence
to accompany that.

Here we have
potential visual evidence

of some type of
interstellar activity

focused on the ranch,
some type of interaction

that is not explained by
any conventional means.

Never seen it before.

I-I’ve never seen
anything like it before.

And, Brandon, this next
one, you have yet to see

because it just happened to us.

- Really?
- Yeah, it is so bizarre.

I think it would be a good idea
to get everyone’s eyes on this.

- Absolutely.
- Please, let’s do.

This is a
three-dimensional model

of Pete Kelsey’s
recent survey work.

Pete scanned the entire
mesa, and look at this structure.

Wow. Incredible.

Wow!

This looks like a solid
structure in the sky.

Yes.

This object, whatever it is,

uh, it’s really fascinating.

What are we looking at?
We don’t know at this point.

Well, we need to
talk about the reality

of what we’re dealing
with in this investigation.

Based on all of these
combined events,

how do we move forward?

Based on all of these
combined events,

all of this data, if we are
truly being led by the data,

and what we have documented,
how do we move forward?

What are our next steps as a
team here at Skinwalker Ranch?

Well, what we can say is
perhaps one of the most

amazing treasures
might be under that mesa,

but it might also
be amazingly fragile.

And we don’t want to
destroy whatever it is,

by willy-nilly
going in and-and...

- and stomping our feet around.
- Yeah, and exactly

as Travis has explained,
we should probably take

a forensic approach to
look at this as a biopsy.

Uh, you know, we
conduct the research, uh...

very carefully, because
we don’t want to destroy

the very thing we are
attempting to get eyes on.

So obviously we can’t come in

recklessly and blast the side

- of the mesa.
- Absolutely. - Yeah.

Whatever we do must be

surgical, well-planned
and precise.

Is there any way

to discover what’s
inside the mesa,

short of excavation?

Is there some kind of sonar,

microimaging that we can,

you can actually
X-ray the mountain?

We have used, uh,
ground-penetrating radar

to the best of our
ability right now.

Uh, we are pursuing some,
uh, space capabilities that

are just now, new
technologies coming online.

Maybe in the next year or so.

You know, there’s another
thing that we need to follow up on.

We have discovered there
is some sort of anomaly

over the ranch in
a certain location

that is between
3,000 and 5,000 feet

in altitude above the triangle.

If this is a...
atmospheric anomaly

or a gravitational anomaly,

- I think we just got to follow up on this data.
- Absolutely.

I think everyone would
agree that we move forward

having a multidisciplinary,
diverse approach

to really tackling this
problem set and taking the data

that drives us in
the right direction

to uncover the secret
of what lies on this ranch,

both above and below.

Well, I mean, here’s
the significance for me.

You guys set up an experiment

where you have
witnesses there gathered

to conduct this experiment

and hopefully
generate a response.

You don’t know what
the response is gonna be.

You don’t know if
there will be a response.

And you get a response
and you document it.

It appears we are
triggering contact...

in some way,
shape or form and...

it is manifesting itself

above the ranch in
a very profound way.

We’re dealing with forces.

We’re dealing with phenomena

that redefines not only

our vision of reality but
potentially even history itself.

Is Skinwalker Ranch really

at the center of a lot
of interesting things

- that are now being brought forward?
- Yes, but...

it doesn’t seem to be
restricted just to Utah.

- This is country-wide, worldwide?
- Yeah.

Well, for the last four years,

the whole world has
been on a UFO binge.

We’ve had major media
coverage taking it seriously

for the first time maybe ever.

Congress has dug in.

They want to fund a
permanent investigation.

A program that would
look into these things.

And all of this stuff
is traced directly

back to Skinwalker Ranch.

If not for a DIA scientist

visiting the property back

in 2007 and having
an experience,

there would not have
been an AAWSAP program,

there would not have
been an AATIP program,

and the whole world would
not be on this UFO binge

that it’s on right now. We don’t
know where it’s gonna lead,

but at least we’ve dragged
it out of the dark ages

and made this topic a
little more respectable

for Congress, for media,
for scientists to investigate.

It all stems back to the ranch.

Well, Brandon, let me just
say, you know, I was here

at the beginning 12
weeks ago, and now I’m...

I’ve returned and
you’re reporting.

And all I can say is

the phenomena is
just overwhelming.

I’m very excited
about the next chapter.

Uh, I think you’ve got momentum,

uh, I again like Dr. Taylor

talking about this should
be a scalpeled approach.

Erik, you’ve mentioned
how we’ve got to be careful

about what we’re doing
here so we don’t damage

- the information we’ll find.
- Very much so.

You guys have made breakthroughs
on so many different, uh, bases,

and, uh, I can’t wait to
see what comes next.

Well, thank you, Governor,
for your time and attention.

- And thank you, George, for joining us.
- Glad to be here.

I want to thank everyone at
this table for your sacrifice,

for your professionalism,

for your talents,
your expertise.

We are, uh, opening new
doors, new paths to explore.

I look forward to
the path ahead.

And, uh, we’ll be in touch

with you regarding next steps.

- Thank you.
- All right.

- Thanks, Brandon.
- Thank you.

Thank you, Governor.

- George. Yeah, yeah.
- Good to meet you.

We’ve learned a lot of things
through our work this year.

Piece by piece,

we are continuing to
assemble this puzzle,

showing us that not only is
the ranch phenomenology real,

but we seem to be
interactively engaging it.

I’m way past the
point of no return.

I’ve had too many
things happen to me

on the ranch not to continue.

It seems like the
stakes have risen,

so at this point we
have to push forward.

We have to get answers.

I’ve seen things today that
I never thought I would see

and haven’t seen
before, but I’d like to think

that we can figure
it out, I hope we can.

Here’s the thing for sure:

you aren’t going to
figure it out if you don’t try.

As we wrap up this
year’s investigation

at Skinwalker Ranch,

we all feel like we’re getting

much closer to finding some
real answers about this place.

I mean, when I first
came to the ranch,

I had never even seen a UAP.

We got something, hold on.

- Look, look, look.
- What is that?

Holy!

But we’ve witnessed
and documented

phenomena up in the sky...

What the hell is
that in the sky?

That thing is big and spherical!

That has changed
my entire outlook

on what I thought was possible.

And now...

after encountering a
dome-shaped metal object

deep inside the mesa,

who knows what it
could ultimately reveal.

Oh, my.

We owe it to ourselves

and the entire world to figure
out the truth behind this ranch.

It takes courage to
confront these topics.

I believe as we
brave that territory,

as we have the
courage to delve deeper,

both literally and figuratively
into Skinwalker Ranch,

we’re going to
find that not only

will we come to an understanding

of the dark forces that
we’re interacting with,

but also the nature of
our world, and our reality.
