[dramatic music]
2
00:00:15,429 --> 00:00:17,603
- [Narrator] Darcy Weir is
an independent researcher
3
00:00:17,638 --> 00:00:19,985
and filmmaker who has
traveled around the world
4
00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:22,125
to study the UFO phenomenon.
5
00:00:23,506 --> 00:00:25,749
- [Commentator] And with
a grin and a salute,
6
00:00:25,784 --> 00:00:27,820
before his flight, Major Cooper,
7
00:00:27,855 --> 00:00:30,996
along with other Air Force
astronauts and space pilots,
8
00:00:31,031 --> 00:00:33,757
attended a traditional
Air Force dining in
9
00:00:33,792 --> 00:00:37,623
at the Officers Club at Patrick
Air Force Base, Florida.
10
00:00:37,658 --> 00:00:39,832
Secretary of the Air
Force, Eugene M. Zuckert,
11
00:00:39,867 --> 00:00:42,387
stated the need for
our efforts in space.
12
00:00:43,871 --> 00:00:46,115
- [Eugene] We believe that
space can be free to all
13
00:00:46,149 --> 00:00:50,153
with peaceful activity only
if somebody keeps it free.
14
00:00:50,188 --> 00:00:51,327
We are that somebody.
15
00:00:51,361 --> 00:00:54,261
[crowd applauding]
16
00:01:02,510 --> 00:01:04,109
- [Narrator] What if there
was a Sinister threat
17
00:01:04,133 --> 00:01:05,755
lurking among the stars?
18
00:01:05,789 --> 00:01:08,206
A malevolent
extraterrestrial intelligence
19
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,864
daring to invade our
atmosphere without consent,
20
00:01:11,899 --> 00:01:14,522
poised to completely
change our existence
21
00:01:14,557 --> 00:01:17,387
by revealing themselves
to the public.
22
00:01:17,422 --> 00:01:20,114
Could their motives be
to exploit our world
23
00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:24,118
or have we already doomed
ourselves with our own greed?
24
00:01:24,153 --> 00:01:26,086
Is the United States
defense intelligence
25
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,742
aware of these possibilities
26
00:01:27,777 --> 00:01:29,399
and do they hold the answers
27
00:01:29,434 --> 00:01:31,608
to these mind-boggling
inquiries?
28
00:01:33,955 --> 00:01:36,855
NASA and various
National Defense agencies
29
00:01:36,889 --> 00:01:38,857
in the United States
have been aware
30
00:01:38,891 --> 00:01:43,275
of unidentified flying
objects, UFOs for many decades.
31
00:01:45,726 --> 00:01:48,177
With the terminology
used to classify them
32
00:01:48,211 --> 00:01:49,833
evolving over time.
33
00:01:52,940 --> 00:01:55,874
Since the late 1970s
the US Air Force
34
00:01:55,908 --> 00:01:58,532
and NASA have employed
different code names
35
00:01:58,566 --> 00:02:00,361
to refer to UFOs.
36
00:02:01,293 --> 00:02:03,606
One such codename Fastwalker
37
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,127
was used by the North American
Air Defense Command, NORAD,
38
00:02:07,161 --> 00:02:10,268
to designate UFO sightings
entering earth's atmosphere
39
00:02:10,302 --> 00:02:11,372
from outer space.
40
00:02:11,407 --> 00:02:14,410
[suspenseful music]
41
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,109
The NORAD facility which
previously was located
42
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:26,422
within Cheyenne
Mountain in Colorado
43
00:02:26,456 --> 00:02:29,252
tracked numerous such
bogeys, annually.
44
00:02:29,287 --> 00:02:32,290
[suspenseful music]
45
00:02:37,467 --> 00:02:40,090
[lively music]
46
00:02:50,722 --> 00:02:52,424
- [Astronaut] Houston,
everybody around here
47
00:02:52,448 --> 00:02:54,726
has looked at the bird
and it looks real good.
48
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,902
- Roger, roger.
- On May 14th 1973
49
00:02:58,937 --> 00:03:01,457
a Saturn INT-21 launch vehicle
50
00:03:01,491 --> 00:03:03,355
blasted off from Cape Kennedy,
51
00:03:03,390 --> 00:03:07,221
carrying NASA's first space
station into orbit above earth.
52
00:03:07,256 --> 00:03:09,844
[lively music]
53
00:03:13,054 --> 00:03:15,954
Skylab was a 100-ton
orbital research
54
00:03:15,988 --> 00:03:17,369
and observation platform
55
00:03:17,404 --> 00:03:19,613
consisting of an
air lock module,
56
00:03:19,647 --> 00:03:22,236
docking adapter,
orbital workshop,
57
00:03:22,271 --> 00:03:25,481
and a solar and terrestrial
telescopic advisory
58
00:03:25,515 --> 00:03:28,380
called the Apollo
telescope mount.
59
00:03:29,795 --> 00:03:33,523
Orbiting the earth at an
altitude of 440 kilometers,
60
00:03:33,558 --> 00:03:36,492
Skylab provided
10,000 cubic feet
61
00:03:36,526 --> 00:03:40,254
of habitable living space
pressurized to 5 PSI
62
00:03:40,289 --> 00:03:42,118
allowing three-man flight crews
63
00:03:42,152 --> 00:03:45,155
to conduct NASA's first
real in-depth studies
64
00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:48,262
into the effects of long
duration spaceflight
65
00:03:48,297 --> 00:03:49,608
on the human body.
66
00:03:49,643 --> 00:03:52,232
[lively music]
67
00:03:57,996 --> 00:04:00,723
In addition to microgravity
biomedical research,
68
00:04:00,757 --> 00:04:04,278
Skylab also served as an
orbital observation platform
69
00:04:04,313 --> 00:04:06,211
allowing the
astronauts to conduct
70
00:04:06,246 --> 00:04:09,594
a variety of exo-atmospheric
solar studies
71
00:04:09,628 --> 00:04:13,287
and Earth Science/resources
surveillance operations.
72
00:04:13,322 --> 00:04:15,876
[lively music]
73
00:04:23,470 --> 00:04:27,128
During 1973 three
separate NASA flight crews
74
00:04:27,163 --> 00:04:29,786
rode the Saturn 1B
booster into orbit
75
00:04:29,821 --> 00:04:33,169
rendezvousing with Skylab and
occupying the space station
76
00:04:33,203 --> 00:04:35,827
for a total of 171 days.
77
00:04:35,861 --> 00:04:38,450
[lively music]
78
00:04:45,388 --> 00:04:48,288
[lively music continues]
79
00:04:48,322 --> 00:04:52,775
On July 28th, 1973, Mission
Commander Alan Bean,
80
00:04:52,809 --> 00:04:56,330
pilot Jack Lousma, and
science pilot Owen Garriott,
81
00:04:56,365 --> 00:05:00,334
began their Skylab
3 SLM-2 mission
82
00:05:00,369 --> 00:05:02,267
becoming the second flight crew
83
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,132
to live and work aboard
the space station.
84
00:05:05,166 --> 00:05:09,585
During their 59 days in space,
Bean, Lousma, and Garriott
85
00:05:09,619 --> 00:05:12,588
orbited the earth 858 times,
86
00:05:12,622 --> 00:05:14,935
conducting a variety
of experiments
87
00:05:14,969 --> 00:05:17,696
and using Skylab's wide
array of instruments
88
00:05:17,731 --> 00:05:20,872
and cameras to study
our sun and earth
89
00:05:20,906 --> 00:05:23,150
in ways not possible before.
90
00:05:23,184 --> 00:05:25,739
[lively music]
91
00:05:32,332 --> 00:05:34,437
[lively music continues]
92
00:05:34,472 --> 00:05:37,509
At approximately 16:35 GMT
93
00:05:37,544 --> 00:05:40,443
on mission day 55
the Skylab crew
94
00:05:40,478 --> 00:05:43,239
congregated in the
wardroom to eat their lunch
95
00:05:43,273 --> 00:05:46,760
and discuss a procedures review
of the day's flight plan.
96
00:05:46,794 --> 00:05:49,418
[lively music]
97
00:05:49,452 --> 00:05:51,834
The lunch break also
afforded the astronauts
98
00:05:51,868 --> 00:05:54,733
the opportunity to gaze
out the wardroom window,
99
00:05:54,768 --> 00:05:58,254
which was the largest viewing
port in the Skylab station.
100
00:06:00,739 --> 00:06:03,259
As Skylab's orbital
track was passing over
101
00:06:03,293 --> 00:06:04,881
the continent of Africa.
102
00:06:06,089 --> 00:06:08,402
Jack Lousma known as
a bright red object
103
00:06:08,437 --> 00:06:12,648
outside the window, visible
well above the earth's horizon.
104
00:06:12,682 --> 00:06:14,995
For over 10 minutes
the crew observed
105
00:06:15,029 --> 00:06:17,894
and photographed
this bright red UFO.
106
00:06:17,929 --> 00:06:20,759
Noting that it's light
intensity was oscillating
107
00:06:20,794 --> 00:06:24,280
between bright and dim
in 10 second intervals.
108
00:06:24,314 --> 00:06:26,869
[lively music]
109
00:06:31,563 --> 00:06:34,773
Finally at 16:46 GMT
110
00:06:34,808 --> 00:06:37,535
as their orbit was
passing near Madagascar,
111
00:06:37,569 --> 00:06:41,642
both Skylab and the UFO
cross the sunset Terminator
112
00:06:41,677 --> 00:06:44,990
into darkness and
visual contact was lost.
113
00:06:45,025 --> 00:06:47,752
Throughout the duration
of this UFO sighting,
114
00:06:47,786 --> 00:06:50,479
Skylab was in a blackout period
115
00:06:50,513 --> 00:06:54,275
and thus no radio contact
with the MOCR in Houston
116
00:06:54,310 --> 00:06:56,795
via the STDN was possible.
117
00:06:56,830 --> 00:06:59,557
The first official report
of this UFO sighting
118
00:06:59,591 --> 00:07:02,007
over the public net
came from Skylab
119
00:07:02,042 --> 00:07:04,113
some four and a
half years later.
120
00:07:04,147 --> 00:07:07,012
- [Lousma] Did you tell him
about that satellite we saw?
121
00:07:07,047 --> 00:07:09,049
- [Bean] Yes, we saw
a great satellite.
122
00:07:09,083 --> 00:07:11,672
We didn't know if we
told you about it.
123
00:07:11,707 --> 00:07:14,330
- [Lousma] The closest and
brightest one we've seen.
124
00:07:15,469 --> 00:07:18,886
- Huge one.
- We've seen several.
125
00:07:18,921 --> 00:07:20,129
It was a red one.
126
00:07:20,163 --> 00:07:22,372
[CAPCOM] No, you may
have told somebody
127
00:07:22,407 --> 00:07:23,857
but it wasn't this team.
128
00:07:23,891 --> 00:07:25,479
I don't remember
hearing about it.
129
00:07:25,514 --> 00:07:27,757
- [Lousma] I guess
we didn't report it.
130
00:07:27,792 --> 00:07:31,243
It was reflecting in red
light and oscillating.
131
00:07:31,278 --> 00:07:34,039
[lively music]
132
00:07:34,074 --> 00:07:35,800
- [Narrator] In the
Skylab post mission,
133
00:07:35,834 --> 00:07:38,319
technical crew
debriefing documentation,
134
00:07:38,354 --> 00:07:41,495
astronauts Garriott and
Lousma commented further
135
00:07:41,530 --> 00:07:44,429
about the unidentified
satellite they saw.
136
00:07:44,464 --> 00:07:46,269
- [Garriott] Do you want to
talk about that satellite?
137
00:07:46,293 --> 00:07:47,743
- [Lousma] I saw one satellite
138
00:07:47,777 --> 00:07:50,366
that appeared like a
satellite would own earth.
139
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,301
I saw one that was not like one
that you would see on earth,
140
00:07:54,335 --> 00:07:55,716
so why don't you mention it?
141
00:07:55,751 --> 00:07:58,167
- [Garriott] Okay, about a
week or 10 days before recovery
142
00:07:58,201 --> 00:08:00,100
and we were still
waiting for information
143
00:08:00,134 --> 00:08:02,689
to be supplied to us
about the identification.
144
00:08:02,723 --> 00:08:05,830
Jack first notice this
rather large red star
145
00:08:05,864 --> 00:08:07,210
out the wardroom window.
146
00:08:07,245 --> 00:08:08,867
It was much brighter
than Jupiter
147
00:08:08,902 --> 00:08:10,662
or any of the other planets.
148
00:08:10,697 --> 00:08:12,215
It had a reddish hue to it,
149
00:08:12,250 --> 00:08:14,528
even though it was
well above the horizon.
150
00:08:14,563 --> 00:08:15,978
It was slowly rotating
151
00:08:16,012 --> 00:08:18,359
because it had a
variation in brightness
152
00:08:18,394 --> 00:08:19,809
with a 10 second period.
153
00:08:19,844 --> 00:08:22,812
As I was saying we observed
it for about 10 minutes
154
00:08:22,847 --> 00:08:24,469
until we went into darkness,
155
00:08:24,504 --> 00:08:26,540
and it also followed
us into darkness
156
00:08:26,575 --> 00:08:28,093
about five seconds later.
157
00:08:28,128 --> 00:08:30,095
From the five to
ten second delay
158
00:08:30,130 --> 00:08:32,132
in its disappearance we surmise
159
00:08:32,166 --> 00:08:35,100
that it was not more than
30 to 50 nautical miles
160
00:08:35,135 --> 00:08:36,585
from our location.
161
00:08:36,619 --> 00:08:38,897
From its original position
in the wardroom window,
162
00:08:38,932 --> 00:08:41,762
it did not move more
than 10 or 20 degrees
163
00:08:41,797 --> 00:08:44,213
over the 10 minutes or
so that we watched it.
164
00:08:44,247 --> 00:08:46,767
It's orbit was very
close to that of our own.
165
00:08:46,802 --> 00:08:50,530
We never saw it on any
earlier or succeeding orbits,
166
00:08:50,564 --> 00:08:52,324
and we would be quite interested
167
00:08:52,359 --> 00:08:54,844
in having its
identification established.
168
00:08:55,845 --> 00:08:57,098
- [Narrator] Commander Alan Bean
169
00:08:57,122 --> 00:08:59,504
also kept an in-flight
personal diary
170
00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:02,749
during his Skylab flight
where he briefly references
171
00:09:02,783 --> 00:09:04,405
this UFO encounter.
172
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,029
[lively music]
173
00:09:14,726 --> 00:09:19,075
According to NORAD SSN space
object catalog tracking data,
174
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:21,699
no known satellites
or orbital debris
175
00:09:21,733 --> 00:09:24,736
were anywhere near Skylab
during this encounter.
176
00:09:24,771 --> 00:09:28,360
There is no doubt that
the Skylab 3 SLM-2 crew
177
00:09:28,395 --> 00:09:31,916
observed and photographed
a UFO during their mission,
178
00:09:31,950 --> 00:09:34,021
but there were several
inconsistencies
179
00:09:34,056 --> 00:09:36,645
in the official evidence
related to this incident
180
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,198
that still should be noted.
181
00:09:38,232 --> 00:09:42,271
How long did the Skylab
crew observe this UFO?
182
00:09:42,305 --> 00:09:44,653
In the post-mission
technical crew debriefing,
183
00:09:44,687 --> 00:09:47,828
Lousma and Garriott both
agreed they observed the UFO
184
00:09:47,863 --> 00:09:50,797
for about 10 minutes
before it and Skylab
185
00:09:50,831 --> 00:09:52,246
passed into darkness.
186
00:09:52,281 --> 00:09:56,285
However, in CDR Alan Bean's
in-flight diary entry
187
00:09:56,319 --> 00:09:59,012
written just a few
hours after the sighting
188
00:09:59,046 --> 00:10:02,602
he directly States the
UFO drifted along with us
189
00:10:02,636 --> 00:10:04,258
for 20 minutes or more.
190
00:10:04,293 --> 00:10:07,054
Which crossed the
sunset terminator first,
191
00:10:07,089 --> 00:10:09,367
Skylab or the UFO?
192
00:10:09,401 --> 00:10:12,059
In the same technical
crew debriefing document
193
00:10:12,094 --> 00:10:15,028
Owen Garriott States the
Skylab cross the terminator
194
00:10:15,062 --> 00:10:17,547
into darkness first,
and then the UFO,
195
00:10:17,582 --> 00:10:21,931
"Followed us into darkness
about five seconds later."
196
00:10:21,966 --> 00:10:24,037
Jack Lousma told mission control
197
00:10:24,071 --> 00:10:27,350
that the UFO "Let
us into sunset."
198
00:10:27,385 --> 00:10:30,526
According to NASA, there were
a total of four photographs
199
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:33,425
of this UFO that were
shot by the Skylab crew
200
00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:37,257
during this encounter, taken
with a 35 millimeter camera
201
00:10:37,291 --> 00:10:39,708
using a 300 millimeter lens.
202
00:10:39,742 --> 00:10:42,780
NASA's official Skylab
photographic index
203
00:10:42,814 --> 00:10:44,885
and scene
identification catalog,
204
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,544
twice references these four
specific frames of film,
205
00:10:48,578 --> 00:10:52,479
frames 2138 through to 2141.
206
00:10:52,513 --> 00:10:56,690
On page 41, the four frames
were cataloged as showing
207
00:10:56,725 --> 00:10:58,899
"Satellite, unmanned."
208
00:10:58,934 --> 00:11:01,212
And what about the
Channel-A tapes?
209
00:11:01,246 --> 00:11:03,801
Aboard Skylab was a
voice recording system
210
00:11:03,835 --> 00:11:06,217
designed to tape
any conversations
211
00:11:06,251 --> 00:11:09,703
the astronauts had amongst
themselves inside the station,
212
00:11:09,738 --> 00:11:13,914
when they were out of direct
radio contact with Houston.
213
00:11:13,949 --> 00:11:17,055
According to NASA the
Channel-A taping system
214
00:11:17,090 --> 00:11:19,886
was not active during
the UFO encounter.
215
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,785
So we have no audio
or transcripts
216
00:11:22,820 --> 00:11:25,719
of the astronaut
conversations that took place
217
00:11:25,754 --> 00:11:27,134
during the sighting.
218
00:11:27,169 --> 00:11:30,413
However, during the post-mission
technical crew debriefing
219
00:11:30,448 --> 00:11:33,347
Owen Garriott says that
the Channel-A tape system
220
00:11:33,382 --> 00:11:35,660
was active during
the UFO encounter.
221
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:38,663
This UFO encounter
during Skylab 3 mission
222
00:11:38,698 --> 00:11:41,355
remains unexplained to this day.
223
00:11:41,390 --> 00:11:45,049
- We're at a disadvantage
here in studying this subject
224
00:11:45,083 --> 00:11:49,053
because we are dealing
with a structure of secrecy
225
00:11:49,087 --> 00:11:52,297
that has a lot of the
cards that we don't have.
226
00:11:52,332 --> 00:11:54,852
But we still do have the ability
227
00:11:54,886 --> 00:11:57,095
to learn some facts,
228
00:11:57,130 --> 00:12:00,305
and we have the ability
to make inferences
229
00:12:00,340 --> 00:12:03,170
based on the facts that we know.
230
00:12:03,205 --> 00:12:05,932
And we actually know
a fair number of facts
231
00:12:05,966 --> 00:12:09,625
about clandestine
activities in space,
232
00:12:09,659 --> 00:12:13,146
and anomalous events in
earth orbit and beyond.
233
00:12:14,872 --> 00:12:17,426
We do actually have good
information on that.
234
00:12:17,460 --> 00:12:19,911
So by working with
that information,
235
00:12:21,050 --> 00:12:22,914
the fact that you
might know that NORAD,
236
00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:25,468
for example, does
and has tracked
237
00:12:25,503 --> 00:12:28,955
objects coming in from
deep space to earth orbit.
238
00:12:30,680 --> 00:12:32,959
More than once
this has happened.
239
00:12:34,167 --> 00:12:37,618
I know of two specific
events during the 1980s
240
00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:39,759
when this absolutely happened.
241
00:12:39,793 --> 00:12:44,315
- We have thousands of
satellites orbiting the earth
242
00:12:44,349 --> 00:12:46,627
and some of them are aimed
outward like the telescopes
243
00:12:46,662 --> 00:12:48,388
in orbit, but many of them,
244
00:12:48,422 --> 00:12:50,873
the majority of them
are aiming down.
245
00:12:50,908 --> 00:12:54,808
It's weather, or it's
defense related, right?
246
00:12:54,843 --> 00:12:58,329
I want to know where those
tanks are, that kind of thing.
247
00:12:58,363 --> 00:12:59,848
And they're very good cameras.
248
00:12:59,882 --> 00:13:02,171
I mean, they can probably read
the license plate on my car,
249
00:13:02,195 --> 00:13:04,473
I don't know, but something
close to that resolution.
250
00:13:04,507 --> 00:13:05,795
In other words,
anything that's more
251
00:13:05,819 --> 00:13:08,304
than a couple of inches
in size, they can see.
252
00:13:09,719 --> 00:13:13,309
So if we were really being
visited by alien craft
253
00:13:13,344 --> 00:13:15,795
some of these satellites
would see them.
254
00:13:15,829 --> 00:13:19,315
- One, there was a woman
whose name is Simone Mendez,
255
00:13:19,350 --> 00:13:21,628
she's around, she was
active US Air Force
256
00:13:21,662 --> 00:13:25,494
in the early 1980s and
unfortunately for her
257
00:13:25,528 --> 00:13:28,048
she was presented
with information
258
00:13:28,083 --> 00:13:30,706
that was illegal for her to see.
259
00:13:30,740 --> 00:13:32,328
She gotten a lot of
trouble about it.
260
00:13:32,363 --> 00:13:34,365
But this information was NORAD,
261
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:35,884
that's North
American Air Defense,
262
00:13:35,918 --> 00:13:40,820
data describing an object,
and not a natural object,
263
00:13:42,476 --> 00:13:44,685
coming in from deep space,
264
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,860
and parking itself
in earth orbit.
265
00:13:46,895 --> 00:13:48,034
And she learned about this,
266
00:13:48,068 --> 00:13:49,494
and she wasn't supposed
to learn about it,
267
00:13:49,518 --> 00:13:53,591
and not only Air Force
Military Police, but the FBI
268
00:13:53,625 --> 00:13:55,110
was on her case for a long time,
269
00:13:55,144 --> 00:13:57,353
and they made her
life miserable.
270
00:13:57,388 --> 00:13:59,977
And her documentation is
available, I have seen it,
271
00:14:00,011 --> 00:14:01,737
I've held it in my hands.
272
00:14:01,771 --> 00:14:04,326
She's a slam dunk, that's real.
273
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,812
There's another case
that I actually,
274
00:14:07,847 --> 00:14:11,091
I have it, I have
this little study
275
00:14:11,126 --> 00:14:13,300
by a friend of mine
who worked at Aerojet
276
00:14:13,335 --> 00:14:14,726
which is a major
defense contractor
277
00:14:14,750 --> 00:14:17,649
that built the DSP system.
278
00:14:17,684 --> 00:14:20,307
That is the defense
satellite program.
279
00:14:20,342 --> 00:14:23,552
These are geosynchronous
satellites system,
280
00:14:23,586 --> 00:14:24,794
the defense satellite program
281
00:14:24,829 --> 00:14:27,418
that were designed to
detect missile launches
282
00:14:27,452 --> 00:14:29,247
and things like
that, but are also
283
00:14:29,282 --> 00:14:31,146
outstanding UFO detectors,
284
00:14:31,180 --> 00:14:32,423
just turns out that way.
285
00:14:32,457 --> 00:14:34,632
They've got all these
sensor arrays on them
286
00:14:34,666 --> 00:14:36,323
and optical equipment.
287
00:14:36,358 --> 00:14:39,430
And on one occasion
on May 5th 1984,
288
00:14:39,464 --> 00:14:42,088
the author of this
study is Ron Regehr
289
00:14:42,122 --> 00:14:45,367
he worked at Aerojet
for quite a few years.
290
00:14:45,401 --> 00:14:47,058
- [Announcer] Experts from DSP
291
00:14:47,093 --> 00:14:49,785
are revealing this information
for the first time.
292
00:14:49,819 --> 00:14:53,306
- We saw something.
- The DSP satellite
293
00:14:53,340 --> 00:14:55,411
is in fact a spy satellite.
294
00:14:55,446 --> 00:14:58,587
- [Ron] The confirmation
that an event of some type.
295
00:14:58,621 --> 00:15:01,452
- One of these DSP
satellites tracked,
296
00:15:03,109 --> 00:15:07,976
its sensors read an
object that came to it
297
00:15:08,010 --> 00:15:11,255
within three kilometer
distance in space.
298
00:15:11,289 --> 00:15:14,396
That's reach out and
touch someone distance.
299
00:15:14,430 --> 00:15:16,018
That's very close.
300
00:15:16,053 --> 00:15:18,676
It was a nine minute
long encounter.
301
00:15:18,710 --> 00:15:22,024
And it was a very puzzling
thing for the analysts
302
00:15:22,059 --> 00:15:26,477
who saw that because
they, what could that be?
303
00:15:27,685 --> 00:15:30,170
That's an amazingly
maneuverable object,
304
00:15:31,654 --> 00:15:33,173
got them at scratching
their heads.
305
00:15:33,208 --> 00:15:35,210
Knew that Ron is
also a very good
306
00:15:35,244 --> 00:15:39,179
and seasoned UFO investigator,
so he knows his field.
307
00:15:39,214 --> 00:15:43,701
And he gained,
legally, by the way,
308
00:15:43,735 --> 00:15:45,220
none of this is illegal,
309
00:15:45,254 --> 00:15:49,017
he gained access to some bits
of information here and there,
310
00:15:50,190 --> 00:15:52,227
relating to the DSPs tracking
311
00:15:52,261 --> 00:15:57,266
of what are known as Fastwalkers
that is space based UFOs.
312
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,004
And there's a database
that it derives from
313
00:16:00,028 --> 00:16:04,273
which is called the Individual
Target Event Database
314
00:16:04,308 --> 00:16:05,585
nicknamed Itty Bitty.
315
00:16:06,724 --> 00:16:08,691
Look at the acronym,
the Itty Bitty database.
316
00:16:08,726 --> 00:16:12,626
And what that is, is it's
a tracking of the DSP
317
00:16:14,421 --> 00:16:18,425
tracked fastwalkers, so
all the space based UFOs.
318
00:16:18,460 --> 00:16:22,636
And I think from 1970,
Ron got a printout
319
00:16:22,671 --> 00:16:26,261
of all of their trackings,
and I got them right here,
320
00:16:26,295 --> 00:16:28,988
I mean, this looks like
a lot of mumbo jumbo,
321
00:16:29,022 --> 00:16:33,993
but these are readouts of
fastwalker trackings by year,
322
00:16:34,752 --> 00:16:37,306
this is 1987, '88, '89.
323
00:16:37,341 --> 00:16:38,756
Basically about three per month.
324
00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:43,726
So from 1973 to 1991 was
something like 283 fastwalkers
325
00:16:44,796 --> 00:16:46,729
were tracked by the DSP system.
326
00:16:46,764 --> 00:16:49,215
Now, that means
uncorrelated targets,
327
00:16:49,249 --> 00:16:51,493
targets that they got
that they didn't know
328
00:16:51,527 --> 00:16:53,529
what these could be.
329
00:16:53,564 --> 00:16:55,566
They were not Russian or Soviet,
330
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,913
they were not any
other that they knew.
331
00:16:57,947 --> 00:17:02,573
But what Ron got
here was facts from,
332
00:17:02,607 --> 00:17:06,059
and this strikes me as
something that's unofficial
333
00:17:06,094 --> 00:17:09,304
but probably true.
334
00:17:10,684 --> 00:17:12,004
He has is gentleman
who actually,
335
00:17:12,031 --> 00:17:14,654
I knew him and he's
no longer alive,
336
00:17:14,688 --> 00:17:16,138
who says, "I have information
337
00:17:16,173 --> 00:17:19,866
that is such and such a
time, Zulu May 5th, 1984,
338
00:17:19,900 --> 00:17:23,076
a DSP platform detected
an object, with heat,
339
00:17:23,111 --> 00:17:26,286
in the 9000 kilowatt
sensor range
340
00:17:27,736 --> 00:17:30,739
coming out of deep space,
coming out of deep space
341
00:17:30,773 --> 00:17:33,707
and passing within three
kilometers of the DSP.
342
00:17:34,674 --> 00:17:37,435
The DSP star tracking telescope
343
00:17:37,470 --> 00:17:40,024
first detected the object."
344
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:42,613
And they use this, and
he points out here,
345
00:17:42,647 --> 00:17:44,718
the optical system
that he's referring to
346
00:17:44,753 --> 00:17:49,206
is used for the DSP to gauge
its position accurately
347
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,000
against known stars.
348
00:17:51,035 --> 00:17:52,519
So it has optical equipment,
349
00:17:52,554 --> 00:17:55,281
and this optical equipment
detected this thing.
350
00:17:56,696 --> 00:17:59,112
And he goes on to say, "The
observation lasted nine minutes
351
00:17:59,147 --> 00:18:01,321
a detailed investigation
failed to explain
352
00:18:01,356 --> 00:18:03,254
what caused the sensor reading,
353
00:18:03,289 --> 00:18:06,395
other than a real
object of some type."
354
00:18:07,534 --> 00:18:10,951
And this is a
drawing that came in,
355
00:18:10,986 --> 00:18:15,784
or a graphic that came
in with the facts.
356
00:18:15,818 --> 00:18:18,821
[suspenseful music]
357
00:18:21,824 --> 00:18:26,346
But some of them do correlate
with known UFO events.
358
00:18:26,381 --> 00:18:28,935
So for example one of
them on this database,
359
00:18:30,316 --> 00:18:34,320
is an exact correlation
with a very famous UFO event
360
00:18:34,354 --> 00:18:39,118
from the city of Tehran,
Iran in September 1976.
361
00:18:39,152 --> 00:18:40,843
It's known as a
Tehran UFO encounter,
362
00:18:40,878 --> 00:18:44,433
and it's amazing encounter,
363
00:18:44,468 --> 00:18:48,472
got a couple of F-4s
attempting to intercept
364
00:18:49,921 --> 00:18:52,545
an amazing object that just
bouncing all over the sky.
365
00:18:55,375 --> 00:18:57,101
And I mean, and more
and they couldn't.
366
00:18:57,136 --> 00:18:59,862
- [Announcer] A now retired
pilot is one of forty men
367
00:18:59,897 --> 00:19:02,175
mainly former government
and military officials
368
00:19:02,210 --> 00:19:03,763
from seven different countries
369
00:19:03,797 --> 00:19:06,214
talking about their
UFO experiences.
370
00:19:06,248 --> 00:19:08,077
This conference took
place in Washington
371
00:19:08,112 --> 00:19:10,701
and the cast of characters
was almost strangely,
372
00:19:10,735 --> 00:19:12,461
well, inventional.
373
00:19:12,496 --> 00:19:15,982
One of the believers, this
retired Iranian Air Force pilot
374
00:19:16,016 --> 00:19:18,157
said he saw UFO while flying.
375
00:19:18,191 --> 00:19:21,021
- It looked similar
to us from far,
376
00:19:21,056 --> 00:19:23,507
but bigger and brighter.
377
00:19:23,541 --> 00:19:24,794
- [Announcer]
General Parvis Jafari
378
00:19:24,818 --> 00:19:26,268
says he tried to fire a missile,
379
00:19:26,303 --> 00:19:27,959
but much of his plane
became inoperative.
380
00:19:27,994 --> 00:19:30,652
- All the instrument
was fluctuating,
381
00:19:30,686 --> 00:19:35,243
the radio had garble, even I
couldn't have communication
382
00:19:35,277 --> 00:19:37,762
with my pilot in my backseat
who was operating the radar.
383
00:19:37,797 --> 00:19:39,316
- So none of your
equipment worked?
384
00:19:39,350 --> 00:19:40,731
Your missiles didn't work,
385
00:19:40,765 --> 00:19:41,846
do you think it's
because this was an alien
386
00:19:41,870 --> 00:19:43,251
from another world?
- Oh yes.
387
00:19:43,285 --> 00:19:44,676
- You're sure of that?
- Yeah, I'm sure.
388
00:19:44,700 --> 00:19:49,636
At about 11:00 PM on the
evening of 18th September, 1976,
389
00:19:51,086 --> 00:19:53,468
citizens are frightened
390
00:19:53,502 --> 00:19:57,679
by circling of an unknown
object over Tehran,
391
00:19:57,713 --> 00:20:01,855
the capital city of
Iran at a low altitude.
392
00:20:01,890 --> 00:20:06,860
It looked similar to a star,
but bigger and brighter.
393
00:20:06,895 --> 00:20:09,967
- [Narrator] In 1976,
a massive UFO sighting
394
00:20:10,001 --> 00:20:11,934
took place in Iran.
395
00:20:11,969 --> 00:20:14,247
This UFO sighting
was also picked up
396
00:20:14,282 --> 00:20:17,975
by the DSP satellite
system as a fastwalker.
397
00:20:18,872 --> 00:20:21,875
- All of a sudden I
see this flying object
398
00:20:21,910 --> 00:20:24,050
just going round,
and round, and round,
399
00:20:24,084 --> 00:20:25,603
and going up, and up, and up.
400
00:20:25,638 --> 00:20:27,053
And I told my mom, I said,
401
00:20:27,087 --> 00:20:30,159
"Mom, I just saw a flying
saucer, I saw UFO."
402
00:20:30,194 --> 00:20:34,647
- I was going to prepare
myself to shoot it down.
403
00:20:34,681 --> 00:20:36,373
- [Narrator] This UFO
event was witnessed
404
00:20:36,407 --> 00:20:38,892
by hundreds of people
in the night sky.
405
00:20:38,927 --> 00:20:42,413
Civilians, pilots, generals,
and the unerring eye
406
00:20:42,448 --> 00:20:45,278
of the Iranian Air
Force Radar operators.
407
00:20:45,313 --> 00:20:48,385
- When I saw this object
is flying that fast,
408
00:20:48,419 --> 00:20:50,387
then I thought this
is not the helicopter,
409
00:20:50,421 --> 00:20:52,285
and this is not an aircraft.
410
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,115
By that time I said, "Should
be some kind of UFO."
411
00:20:55,150 --> 00:20:58,671
- Well, I picked up the phone
and it was a base commander,
412
00:20:58,705 --> 00:21:01,743
he wanted me to know they're
going to have the airplanes
413
00:21:01,777 --> 00:21:05,574
to take off from his base
for the scrambled mission.
414
00:21:05,609 --> 00:21:07,818
- He alerted the Air
Force Command Post
415
00:21:07,852 --> 00:21:12,029
and Deputy General Yousefi
decided to scramble
416
00:21:12,063 --> 00:21:14,618
an F-4 jet to investigate.
417
00:21:14,652 --> 00:21:18,898
- [Pilot] I saw a big star
among the other stars,
418
00:21:18,932 --> 00:21:21,107
which it was at
least twice as large
419
00:21:21,141 --> 00:21:22,764
as the normal stars.
420
00:21:22,798 --> 00:21:27,803
- The pilot in the first
jet lost instrumentation
421
00:21:28,942 --> 00:21:31,186
and communication
when he got too close
422
00:21:31,220 --> 00:21:33,222
to the brilliant object.
423
00:21:33,257 --> 00:21:35,052
So he headed back.
424
00:21:35,086 --> 00:21:36,743
- We lost communication
425
00:21:36,778 --> 00:21:38,607
and I heard nothing
from the pilots.
426
00:21:38,642 --> 00:21:41,886
So I was so scared,
what's going to happen,
427
00:21:41,921 --> 00:21:43,440
and what happened to the pilot?
428
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,789
- [Narrator] Suddenly major
Jafari nervously reported
429
00:21:47,823 --> 00:21:51,102
that a smaller UFO had
emerged from the larger object
430
00:21:51,137 --> 00:21:52,897
and was trying to engage him.
431
00:21:56,073 --> 00:21:57,868
- And it was coming toward them,
432
00:21:57,902 --> 00:21:59,663
they tried to shoot them down.
433
00:21:59,697 --> 00:22:02,735
When they squeeze the
trigger, it didn't work,
434
00:22:02,769 --> 00:22:05,703
and the trigger was inoperative.
435
00:22:05,738 --> 00:22:08,257
They couldn't
shoot the missiles.
436
00:22:08,292 --> 00:22:09,373
- [Narrator] Fearing
for their lives,
437
00:22:09,397 --> 00:22:11,122
the pilot tried to eject,
438
00:22:11,157 --> 00:22:13,262
but the ejection
did not work either.
439
00:22:13,297 --> 00:22:15,989
Every system was inoperable.
440
00:22:16,024 --> 00:22:19,717
- We understood that the
eject missile and arsenal
441
00:22:20,580 --> 00:22:22,168
didn't work.
442
00:22:22,202 --> 00:22:27,207
So in this case, I said to
God, "Oh God, save them."
443
00:22:28,416 --> 00:22:29,900
- [Narrator] The
pilot had no choice,
444
00:22:29,934 --> 00:22:31,971
but to go into negative G-Force
445
00:22:32,005 --> 00:22:35,354
to escape the seemingly
hostile UFO encounter.
446
00:22:35,388 --> 00:22:39,496
When the fighter jet evaded
the smaller UFO by 10 miles
447
00:22:39,530 --> 00:22:43,154
all onboard instruments and
communications were restored
448
00:22:43,189 --> 00:22:44,639
to their working order.
449
00:22:44,673 --> 00:22:46,744
The pilot then
reported that the UFO
450
00:22:46,779 --> 00:22:48,815
seemed to be landing
on a mountaintop
451
00:22:48,850 --> 00:22:50,645
just south east of Tehran.
452
00:22:50,679 --> 00:22:53,475
This Landing was confirmed
by the radar tower
453
00:22:53,510 --> 00:22:55,339
and Brigadier-General Yousefi
454
00:22:55,374 --> 00:22:58,480
witnessed it from his
balcony with his own eyes.
455
00:22:58,515 --> 00:23:02,622
- One of the separated
objects landed in an open area
456
00:23:02,657 --> 00:23:05,418
radiating a high bright light
457
00:23:05,453 --> 00:23:09,940
in which the sands on
the ground were visible.
458
00:23:09,974 --> 00:23:14,047
- He did it down and
landed on the ground.
459
00:23:14,082 --> 00:23:18,914
And now it is a communication
between the mothership
460
00:23:18,949 --> 00:23:21,745
and that small flying object.
461
00:23:23,194 --> 00:23:25,162
- [Narrator] Following
the smaller UFO landing
462
00:23:25,196 --> 00:23:26,991
the Air Force and many civilians
463
00:23:27,026 --> 00:23:30,236
reported power outages which
shocked military personnel
464
00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:32,894
in awe of these
events taking place.
465
00:23:34,620 --> 00:23:36,587
- That was strange for us.
466
00:23:36,622 --> 00:23:40,108
And we ask each other
why the power went out
467
00:23:40,142 --> 00:23:42,662
for some seconds.
- A top secret meeting
468
00:23:42,697 --> 00:23:44,940
between Imperial
Iranian Air Force
469
00:23:44,975 --> 00:23:47,115
and the United States
Air Force took place
470
00:23:47,149 --> 00:23:48,496
soon after this event.
471
00:23:48,530 --> 00:23:50,946
Hossein Pirouzi an
Air Force controller
472
00:23:50,981 --> 00:23:54,225
at Mehrabad Air Force Base
was present at this meeting.
473
00:23:54,260 --> 00:23:59,265
- They heard our report and
the report of the pilot,
474
00:24:00,162 --> 00:24:03,165
they concluded that no country
475
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,307
is able to have
such a technology.
476
00:24:07,342 --> 00:24:12,347
And all of them believe it
should be a strange object
477
00:24:13,624 --> 00:24:15,350
from other space.
478
00:24:17,732 --> 00:24:20,666
- Anyway, so the
DSP satellite system
479
00:24:20,700 --> 00:24:24,048
detected that
object, apparently.
480
00:24:24,083 --> 00:24:25,740
Yeah, on that day, it's amazing.
481
00:24:27,189 --> 00:24:31,815
- DSP as I explained before
is an infrared based detector
482
00:24:33,023 --> 00:24:35,681
of things launched
from the earth
483
00:24:35,715 --> 00:24:37,752
or entering into the
earth's atmosphere
484
00:24:37,786 --> 00:24:41,169
because we know it can detect,
what we call fastwalkers.
485
00:24:41,203 --> 00:24:46,070
So the DSP can be pointed,
486
00:24:46,105 --> 00:24:49,384
so it can be aimed at
a country like Iran
487
00:24:49,418 --> 00:24:51,282
and the city of Tehran.
488
00:24:51,317 --> 00:24:56,184
So if it's aimed in
that direction and
it produces a report
489
00:24:56,218 --> 00:25:00,982
of a infrared detection,
that's some large incident,
490
00:25:01,016 --> 00:25:05,504
and that happens at
exactly the same time
491
00:25:05,538 --> 00:25:08,437
contemporaneously
with the Iranian,
492
00:25:08,472 --> 00:25:11,924
Tehran based
fighter jet the F-4,
493
00:25:11,958 --> 00:25:14,754
ran into a UFO, tried
to shoot it down.
494
00:25:14,789 --> 00:25:18,655
So we don't have a hundred
percent proof there the same
495
00:25:18,689 --> 00:25:22,210
but it is really
hard to imagine.
496
00:25:22,244 --> 00:25:24,488
You can have an
infrared detection
497
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:28,457
that happens almost
simultaneously with
the UFO detection
498
00:25:28,492 --> 00:25:30,114
and the two not be related.
499
00:25:30,149 --> 00:25:35,154
So it's just, what this says
is those old, tiny spacecraft
500
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:39,572
that are no longer
produced, no longer made,
501
00:25:39,607 --> 00:25:42,782
can detect UFOs entering
the earth's atmosphere.
502
00:25:42,817 --> 00:25:45,613
Imagine what we could do
with the current technology.
503
00:25:45,647 --> 00:25:50,652
And so that goes back to
the essay Chris Mellon did
504
00:25:52,033 --> 00:25:54,183
which means if we could detect
them with old technology
505
00:25:54,207 --> 00:25:56,589
we could really do
a really good job
506
00:25:56,624 --> 00:25:58,936
with the current modern
spacecraft we have in orbit.
507
00:25:58,971 --> 00:26:00,362
- [Announcer] The
satellite was scanning
508
00:26:00,386 --> 00:26:01,836
the skies over Tehran.
509
00:26:01,870 --> 00:26:04,770
- Here is the event.
- My point is
510
00:26:04,804 --> 00:26:08,187
we have enough good information
511
00:26:09,326 --> 00:26:11,259
that we can work with.
512
00:26:13,572 --> 00:26:17,852
And yes, there's nothing wrong
with reasonable speculation.
513
00:26:19,060 --> 00:26:20,820
Sometimes you have
to do it, I do it.
514
00:26:20,855 --> 00:26:23,996
Because we don't have
every piece of the puzzle,
515
00:26:24,030 --> 00:26:25,732
and we want to know what
that picture looks like.
516
00:26:25,756 --> 00:26:28,207
So we do our best, and
we're probably wrong
517
00:26:28,241 --> 00:26:29,795
with some of our speculations,
518
00:26:29,829 --> 00:26:31,382
probably, that's life.
519
00:26:31,417 --> 00:26:33,315
But that's a responsible thing
520
00:26:33,350 --> 00:26:34,972
as long as you know
what you're doing.
521
00:26:35,007 --> 00:26:38,562
You're trying to figure
out this difficult puzzle.
522
00:26:38,597 --> 00:26:41,876
[gentle music]
523
00:26:41,910 --> 00:26:45,500
- [Narrator] Commencing on
April 12th 1981 with STS-1
524
00:26:45,534 --> 00:26:47,467
in a new reusable spacecraft,
525
00:26:47,502 --> 00:26:49,538
would lead the way in a new era
526
00:26:49,573 --> 00:26:52,541
for NASA's public
space missions.
527
00:26:52,576 --> 00:26:57,581
- [Mission Control] 3, 2, 1,
0 and liftoff on Endeavor,
528
00:26:58,893 --> 00:27:01,343
going where east
and west do meet,
529
00:27:01,378 --> 00:27:03,518
at the International
Space Station.
530
00:27:04,830 --> 00:27:07,487
- Houston now controlling.
- Houston Endeavor
531
00:27:07,522 --> 00:27:11,664
roll program.
- Roger roll, Endeavor.
532
00:27:11,699 --> 00:27:14,253
[upbeat music]
533
00:27:21,674 --> 00:27:25,057
[upbeat music continues]
534
00:27:25,091 --> 00:27:27,507
- [Narrator] NASA's Space
Shuttle STS missions
535
00:27:27,542 --> 00:27:29,509
were packed with
technical achievements
536
00:27:29,544 --> 00:27:33,168
as they transported people,
equipment, and supplies
537
00:27:33,203 --> 00:27:35,101
to and from low earth orbit,
538
00:27:35,136 --> 00:27:36,896
while supporting
the construction
539
00:27:36,931 --> 00:27:39,899
and maintenance of the
International Space Station.
540
00:27:40,969 --> 00:27:43,385
This reusable
spacecraft was designed
541
00:27:43,420 --> 00:27:46,250
to embark on a wide range
of thrilling missions
542
00:27:46,285 --> 00:27:50,082
including deploying
and retrieving
satellites, servicing,
543
00:27:50,116 --> 00:27:53,499
and conducting cutting-edge
scientific experiments.
544
00:27:53,533 --> 00:27:54,431
- Is at the very end.
545
00:27:54,465 --> 00:27:55,639
This is New Guinea.
546
00:27:59,401 --> 00:28:00,437
Doing a little tour.
547
00:28:06,132 --> 00:28:09,860
This is the FGB, and what's
cool about this module,
548
00:28:09,895 --> 00:28:12,276
it is actually the very first
piece of the space station
549
00:28:12,311 --> 00:28:13,899
that came up in 1998.
550
00:28:13,933 --> 00:28:17,316
The space station has
been around for about now,
551
00:28:18,524 --> 00:28:20,191
man for 12 years, but
it's been up in space
552
00:28:20,215 --> 00:28:21,700
for about 14 years.
553
00:28:22,839 --> 00:28:24,426
And this was the very first.
554
00:28:24,461 --> 00:28:28,292
It is like the Russian's
PMM, it has a lot of storage
555
00:28:28,327 --> 00:28:29,846
as you can see.
556
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,503
[gentle music]
557
00:28:39,510 --> 00:28:42,893
[gentle music continues]
558
00:28:42,928 --> 00:28:46,759
[speaking a foreign language]
559
00:28:50,625 --> 00:28:53,766
So here we are in the heart
of the space station really,
560
00:28:53,801 --> 00:28:56,148
this is the service module.
561
00:28:56,182 --> 00:28:58,391
This is the central post.
562
00:28:58,426 --> 00:28:59,910
In case we had any problems,
563
00:28:59,945 --> 00:29:01,439
I know when it's a
couple of the questions
564
00:29:01,463 --> 00:29:03,614
were about what type of things
do you have to worry about,
565
00:29:03,638 --> 00:29:05,547
and some of the things we
have to worry about in space
566
00:29:05,571 --> 00:29:07,504
are fire, if we had a fire,
567
00:29:07,538 --> 00:29:09,540
if we had a depressionization
like we're hit
568
00:29:09,575 --> 00:29:11,888
by a micrometeorite
and it made a hole,
569
00:29:11,922 --> 00:29:14,718
or if we had some type
of toxic atmosphere.
570
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,478
We use ammonia for our radiator,
571
00:29:16,513 --> 00:29:17,790
so there is a possibility
572
00:29:17,825 --> 00:29:20,689
that ammonia could
come into the vehicle
573
00:29:20,724 --> 00:29:22,830
and then it would be
bad for all of us.
574
00:29:22,864 --> 00:29:25,349
If we have any of those
problems we come right here,
575
00:29:25,384 --> 00:29:26,730
which we call the Central Post.
576
00:29:26,765 --> 00:29:29,802
It is the main heart
of the space station.
577
00:29:29,837 --> 00:29:33,357
It was also the first
computers that came up here
578
00:29:33,392 --> 00:29:34,980
that ran the space station.
579
00:29:35,014 --> 00:29:38,466
So behind this wall right
here are these main computers.
580
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:41,918
So we gather here as a
group of three or six,
581
00:29:41,952 --> 00:29:43,678
and then figure out
how we're going to
582
00:29:43,712 --> 00:29:46,405
either fight the
fire, patch the hole,
583
00:29:46,439 --> 00:29:48,890
or solve the toxic spill.
584
00:29:48,925 --> 00:29:50,547
And what's cool
about this module,
585
00:29:50,581 --> 00:29:52,652
of course, it's
the central post,
586
00:29:52,687 --> 00:29:57,450
it also has great windows
right down toward earth.
587
00:29:57,485 --> 00:30:02,490
It has controls to fly
in visiting spacecraft
588
00:30:03,629 --> 00:30:05,493
if they need some
assistance right here.
589
00:30:05,527 --> 00:30:08,668
It has Russian computers as
well as American computers
590
00:30:08,703 --> 00:30:12,949
to help us control anything we
need to on the space station.
591
00:30:14,467 --> 00:30:15,962
- [Narrator] This
program's ultimate goal
592
00:30:15,986 --> 00:30:19,058
was to ignite the imaginations
of future generations
593
00:30:19,093 --> 00:30:21,785
by achieving our knowledge
in exciting fields
594
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:25,720
like aerodynamics, material
science, and life science.
595
00:30:25,754 --> 00:30:28,343
[gentle music]
596
00:30:32,451 --> 00:30:35,040
The program ran
for a 135 missions,
597
00:30:35,074 --> 00:30:37,939
culminating in 2011
with a final flight
598
00:30:37,974 --> 00:30:39,492
by the shuttle Atlantis.
599
00:30:39,527 --> 00:30:42,081
[gentle music]
600
00:30:51,677 --> 00:30:53,299
- The stuff that
NASA has released,
601
00:30:53,334 --> 00:30:55,474
or talked about
astronauts have seen stuff
602
00:30:55,508 --> 00:30:58,684
following the Space Station,
or capsules, or whatever,
603
00:30:58,718 --> 00:31:00,272
I think they're observing us.
604
00:31:01,687 --> 00:31:06,243
There's some speculation
that aliens are responsible
605
00:31:07,693 --> 00:31:12,077
for us not getting into a
nuclear war with the Soviets
606
00:31:12,111 --> 00:31:13,595
or the Chinese.
607
00:31:13,630 --> 00:31:17,634
- NASA has had a number of
cases where they have dealt
608
00:31:17,668 --> 00:31:19,739
in some fashion with UFOs.
609
00:31:19,774 --> 00:31:23,191
And of course that is,
I'm sure classified
610
00:31:23,226 --> 00:31:25,538
and kept secret and
hidden from the public.
611
00:31:26,954 --> 00:31:29,646
- [Narrator] STS-29 was
off to a great start
612
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,751
in terms of making
space history.
613
00:31:33,857 --> 00:31:35,272
As the primary payload,
614
00:31:35,307 --> 00:31:39,587
the tracking and data
relay satellite 4, TDRS-4,
615
00:31:39,621 --> 00:31:43,211
was attached to an
inertial upper stage IUS.
616
00:31:43,246 --> 00:31:47,560
It was set to be the
third TDRS to be deployed.
617
00:31:47,595 --> 00:31:50,425
Once deployed, the
IUS shot the satellite
618
00:31:50,460 --> 00:31:52,324
into geosynchronous orbit,
619
00:31:52,358 --> 00:31:54,188
but what the crew witness next
620
00:31:54,222 --> 00:31:56,431
was far beyond
their imagination.
621
00:31:57,846 --> 00:32:00,504
As the crew conducted
various secondary payloads,
622
00:32:00,539 --> 00:32:03,300
including experiments like
protein crystal growth
623
00:32:03,335 --> 00:32:06,303
and chromosomes, and
plate cell division,
624
00:32:06,338 --> 00:32:08,754
they couldn't shake
off what they saw.
625
00:32:11,930 --> 00:32:15,416
John E. Blaha was overheard
saying something very odd
626
00:32:15,450 --> 00:32:17,590
in terms of UFO activity.
627
00:32:17,625 --> 00:32:20,455
While the debate surrounding
this statement's authenticity
628
00:32:20,490 --> 00:32:21,490
would ensue.
629
00:32:23,182 --> 00:32:25,874
- Check the risk
disconnects to open.
630
00:32:27,669 --> 00:32:29,706
Don the thumb loose.
631
00:32:29,740 --> 00:32:32,812
[suspenseful music]
632
00:32:37,334 --> 00:32:39,036
- [Narrator] It was
evident that this mission
633
00:32:39,060 --> 00:32:41,062
would go down in
history as the one
634
00:32:41,097 --> 00:32:43,237
that witnessed
something unexplainable.
635
00:32:43,271 --> 00:32:46,550
- There was an incident with
a space shuttle Discovery
636
00:32:46,585 --> 00:32:51,452
where Don Ratch, a UFO
researcher was listening.
637
00:32:51,486 --> 00:32:53,454
He liked to listen
to the shuttle
638
00:32:53,488 --> 00:32:55,283
talking back and
forth with Houston.
639
00:32:55,318 --> 00:32:56,802
After an hour and a half,
640
00:32:56,836 --> 00:33:00,219
he heard one of the
astronauts say we have a fire.
641
00:33:01,358 --> 00:33:02,542
Maybe they had a fire,
maybe they didn't,
642
00:33:02,566 --> 00:33:05,328
nobody seemed to
be getting excited.
643
00:33:05,362 --> 00:33:07,468
And UFO researchers
think that what happens
644
00:33:07,502 --> 00:33:11,058
in that situation is that
they have spotted a UFO,
645
00:33:11,092 --> 00:33:13,025
or some kind of
extraterrestrial spacecraft
646
00:33:13,060 --> 00:33:16,822
and that's a code that
they use to describe that.
647
00:33:16,856 --> 00:33:19,514
So he sat down right away
and started recording.
648
00:33:21,447 --> 00:33:23,011
- [Astronaut] Houston,
this is Discovery
649
00:33:23,035 --> 00:33:26,832
we still have a alien
spacecraft under observance.
650
00:33:26,866 --> 00:33:29,352
- And a couple minutes later,
651
00:33:29,386 --> 00:33:32,734
he heard that someone
on that same channel
652
00:33:32,769 --> 00:33:37,187
he'd been listening to, NASA
was presented with that,
653
00:33:37,222 --> 00:33:39,741
they denied that that
was an astronaut.
654
00:33:39,776 --> 00:33:42,330
Although it was on
that same channel.
655
00:33:42,365 --> 00:33:45,920
I guess you need about 20 words
for a voice print analysis
656
00:33:45,954 --> 00:33:49,648
and there are only a 13
words so we could not prove
657
00:33:49,682 --> 00:33:51,788
that it was somebody
at NASA saying that,
658
00:33:51,822 --> 00:33:55,654
but it's kind of fishy, because
it was on that same channel
659
00:33:55,688 --> 00:33:58,967
that Don Ratch had been
listening to for a couple hours.
660
00:33:59,002 --> 00:34:02,523
That would have to be a
very classified topic.
661
00:34:02,557 --> 00:34:06,354
- On the thumb loose.
- Houston, this is Discovery
662
00:34:10,634 --> 00:34:14,811
we still have a alien
spacecraft under observance.
663
00:34:16,330 --> 00:34:19,643
- I'm just driving back
from a little visit
664
00:34:19,678 --> 00:34:24,303
that I paid the JFK Space
Center, located in Florida.
665
00:34:24,338 --> 00:34:28,031
I had heard through
fellow UFO researchers
666
00:34:28,066 --> 00:34:31,207
about seeing the
shuttle Atlantis
667
00:34:31,241 --> 00:34:33,588
that's decommissioned
their Space Center.
668
00:34:35,107 --> 00:34:37,109
The incredible thing
about this craft,
669
00:34:37,144 --> 00:34:39,560
which very few
people actually know,
670
00:34:39,594 --> 00:34:42,735
is that it's completely covered
671
00:34:42,770 --> 00:34:45,117
with high-tech space cameras.
672
00:34:45,152 --> 00:34:46,532
When I say space cameras,
673
00:34:46,567 --> 00:34:49,777
I mean cameras that
are built to withstand
674
00:34:49,811 --> 00:34:54,575
the unfiltered light
and the harsh conditions
675
00:34:56,024 --> 00:35:00,132
of lunar space, outside
of the earth's atmosphere.
676
00:35:00,167 --> 00:35:04,309
Now few people are aware that
this remarkable spacecraft
677
00:35:06,897 --> 00:35:11,557
has cutting edge technology
for recording video.
678
00:35:13,180 --> 00:35:17,356
They actually outfit
the spacecraft with
679
00:35:18,737 --> 00:35:23,742
far ultraviolet light
spectrum space cameras.
680
00:35:24,881 --> 00:35:29,057
And what's also
very cool about this
681
00:35:29,092 --> 00:35:33,821
is that you can see the
cameras all over the craft.
682
00:35:33,855 --> 00:35:36,203
And we're not talking
about like four or five,
683
00:35:36,237 --> 00:35:41,242
there are cameras all over the
interior of the shuttle bay
684
00:35:42,692 --> 00:35:46,661
for deploying satellites,
and parts that were used
685
00:35:47,904 --> 00:35:51,563
to outfit the International
Space Station.
686
00:35:51,597 --> 00:35:55,877
They also have cameras on
the end of every robotic arm.
687
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:59,812
And there were
multiple robotic arms
688
00:35:59,847 --> 00:36:03,091
that were connected
to the shuttle.
689
00:36:04,472 --> 00:36:08,718
You also have the fact that
all of these astronauts
690
00:36:08,752 --> 00:36:10,996
that went up into space,
691
00:36:11,030 --> 00:36:14,241
to eventually join the ISS,
692
00:36:14,275 --> 00:36:18,314
or to just do a round
trip on the shuttle,
693
00:36:19,453 --> 00:36:21,386
were well equipped with cameras.
694
00:36:22,732 --> 00:36:26,011
Either on the ISS or
inside of the compartments,
695
00:36:27,461 --> 00:36:32,190
the pressurized compartment
for the shuttle spacecraft.
696
00:36:33,363 --> 00:36:38,368
And a lot of the videos
that people question,
697
00:36:42,165 --> 00:36:47,170
are these actual UFOs
flying around in space
698
00:36:48,102 --> 00:36:50,415
outside of earth
are being caught
699
00:36:50,449 --> 00:36:54,073
on these specialized
space cameras?
700
00:36:54,108 --> 00:36:59,113
So when people say, "Oh well,
I don't believe that video
701
00:37:00,218 --> 00:37:02,979
because it's probably
just 3D, or CGI,
702
00:37:03,013 --> 00:37:05,464
or somebody's
manipulated the image."
703
00:37:05,499 --> 00:37:08,226
No, that's not the case.
704
00:37:08,260 --> 00:37:10,573
These videos are being caught on
705
00:37:10,607 --> 00:37:15,336
government operated
NASA space cameras,
706
00:37:15,371 --> 00:37:16,993
which are untampered with.
707
00:37:18,339 --> 00:37:23,033
And they're incredibly important
videos most of the time
708
00:37:23,068 --> 00:37:27,037
because they're
just as important
709
00:37:27,072 --> 00:37:30,627
as let's say the videos you see
710
00:37:30,662 --> 00:37:34,390
being shot by the fighter craft
711
00:37:34,424 --> 00:37:38,290
in which we got the Tic Tac UFO,
712
00:37:39,636 --> 00:37:44,641
the Nimitz go fast,
Gimbal UFO videos from.
713
00:37:45,815 --> 00:37:51,683
So, I think what you'll
see when we go through
714
00:37:53,961 --> 00:37:58,241
all of this UFO video,
possible UFO activity video
715
00:37:58,276 --> 00:38:00,623
that comes from the
NASA space missions,
716
00:38:02,107 --> 00:38:07,112
you will see that we're
looking at cameras
717
00:38:08,251 --> 00:38:10,771
that are capturing
this in space.
718
00:38:10,805 --> 00:38:13,394
And astronauts
sometimes talking about
719
00:38:13,429 --> 00:38:15,776
what they saw on camera
720
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:22,645
before they cut the feed,
or obscure the image,
721
00:38:23,887 --> 00:38:28,892
or what they classically
do to cover up the UFO.
722
00:38:32,482 --> 00:38:35,071
[gentle music]
723
00:38:40,663 --> 00:38:41,709
- [Narrator] One type of camera
724
00:38:41,733 --> 00:38:43,148
that was continually capturing
725
00:38:43,182 --> 00:38:45,771
these objects interacting
with earth and space
726
00:38:45,806 --> 00:38:49,396
is called a far light
ultraviolet spectrum camera.
727
00:38:49,430 --> 00:38:53,227
During the 1990s NASA carried
out space shuttle missions
728
00:38:53,261 --> 00:38:55,781
and recorded footage like this.
729
00:38:55,816 --> 00:38:59,475
In this footage of what seems
to be a formation of objects
730
00:38:59,509 --> 00:39:00,717
moving over the earth,
731
00:39:00,752 --> 00:39:04,134
one object can be seen
escaping the atmosphere
732
00:39:04,169 --> 00:39:07,172
as we hear NASA
explaining the technology
733
00:39:07,206 --> 00:39:09,933
of what they use to
capture these images.
734
00:39:09,968 --> 00:39:11,728

735
00:39:13,005 --> 00:39:16,975
This view is being taken
with the Glow Camera.
736
00:39:18,356 --> 00:39:22,877
Housed in Endeavor's
payload bay is one of four
737
00:39:22,912 --> 00:39:26,398
different experiments
that are hitching a ride
738
00:39:26,433 --> 00:39:29,056

Hitchhiker payload
that is housed in
Endeavor's payload bay.
740
00:39:32,439 --> 00:39:34,544
- [Narrator] A Glow
Camera is a code name used
741
00:39:34,579 --> 00:39:36,512
for the technology
that can capture things
742
00:39:36,546 --> 00:39:38,755
which cannot be seen
by the human eye,
743
00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:41,896
but are visible in the
ultraviolet light spectrum.
744
00:39:41,931 --> 00:39:44,485
This special light
spectrum camera technology
745
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,936
was extremely
expensive at the time.
746
00:39:46,970 --> 00:39:49,801
It is also similar to
what civilian researchers
747
00:39:49,835 --> 00:39:53,114
and military personnel have
caught on infrared cameras
748
00:39:53,149 --> 00:39:55,254
around the world today.
749
00:39:55,289 --> 00:39:57,429
Martyn Stubbs, a
Canadian television
750
00:39:57,464 --> 00:40:00,570
broadcast station manager
took interest in UFOs
751
00:40:00,605 --> 00:40:03,815
back in the late
80s and early 90s.
752
00:40:03,849 --> 00:40:05,506
Martyn knew that he could use
753
00:40:05,541 --> 00:40:07,612
the television
station satellite dish
754
00:40:07,646 --> 00:40:11,650
to intercept NASA's STS
mission video downlink
755
00:40:11,685 --> 00:40:13,825
in order to observe
what they were seeing
756
00:40:13,859 --> 00:40:15,654
and doing in space.
757
00:40:16,759 --> 00:40:20,452
- Get a video tape
recorder an SVH machine.
758
00:40:20,487 --> 00:40:23,628
An older model funny enough,
not the digital model,
759
00:40:23,662 --> 00:40:26,251
that literally when
you roll the thing
760
00:40:26,285 --> 00:40:29,496
it would break the
frames into fields.
761
00:40:29,530 --> 00:40:33,741
And in reality, there are
60 individual pictures
762
00:40:33,776 --> 00:40:35,605
that make up one second of video
763
00:40:37,227 --> 00:40:38,746
And that's when I found.
764
00:40:38,781 --> 00:40:41,439
[phone ringing]
765
00:40:44,407 --> 00:40:46,582
- Hello.
- Hey Martyn.
766
00:40:48,307 --> 00:40:49,895
- Hello.
- How you doing?
767
00:40:49,930 --> 00:40:51,552
It's Darcy, can you hear me?
768
00:40:52,657 --> 00:40:54,106
- Yeah.
- No, perfect.
769
00:40:54,141 --> 00:40:57,938
This is sounding a hundred
percent way better.
770
00:40:57,972 --> 00:41:00,630
It's just, you were
cutting up a bit there.
771
00:41:00,665 --> 00:41:05,428
So.
- What I basically,
772
00:41:07,741 --> 00:41:12,746
because of the nature of my
work I had access to space
773
00:41:13,816 --> 00:41:15,369
and I couldn't
understand why nobody
774
00:41:15,403 --> 00:41:17,095
was interested in it.
775
00:41:17,129 --> 00:41:20,478
I was with MUFON
and they said, "Oh."
776
00:41:20,512 --> 00:41:23,308
I said, "Isn't
anybody doing this?"
777
00:41:23,342 --> 00:41:28,244
And they weren't,
so it just amazes me
778
00:41:28,278 --> 00:41:32,766
because it's very
rare you get access
779
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,733
to something like that
780
00:41:34,768 --> 00:41:36,735
and nobody else in
the world is doing it,
781
00:41:36,770 --> 00:41:39,497
and enough to pay
the attention I did.
782
00:41:39,531 --> 00:41:41,198
And then I ended up with
hours, and hours, and hours,
783
00:41:41,222 --> 00:41:46,227
and hours, every hour of
every flight I had on video.
784
00:41:47,470 --> 00:41:49,886
I set up recording
banks in my office
785
00:41:49,921 --> 00:41:51,957
and then just put them all on,
786
00:41:51,992 --> 00:41:54,339
record the the signals
because I couldn't watch them,
787
00:41:54,373 --> 00:41:56,548
I had a job to do full time.
788
00:41:56,583 --> 00:41:58,170
And so I took them home at night
789
00:41:58,205 --> 00:42:01,035
and looked at them and
realized what I had,
790
00:42:01,070 --> 00:42:03,728
and needed to learn
a lot about it,
791
00:42:03,762 --> 00:42:06,316
needed to to do more
than just react.
792
00:42:06,351 --> 00:42:09,941
So I sat on them and
contacted various people
793
00:42:09,975 --> 00:42:14,980
I needed to contact, and
everything went from there.
794
00:42:18,121 --> 00:42:21,262
- [Pilot] This is a view

- A man tonight has
his eyes on the skies
799
00:42:42,421 --> 00:42:44,562
looking for objects that
may be out of this world.
800
00:42:44,596 --> 00:42:45,977
- What he found so far
801
00:42:46,011 --> 00:42:48,566
will get you thinking about
life on other planets.
802
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,223
Tony Lopez in the newsroom
with incredible pictures.
803
00:42:51,258 --> 00:42:53,536
- They really are, we
see a big bright object
804
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:54,882
that lights up the night sky,
805
00:42:54,917 --> 00:42:57,298
chances are it's the
big bright moon, right?
806
00:42:57,333 --> 00:42:59,231
But what if that
object is moving?
807
00:42:59,266 --> 00:43:01,751
And what if that object
can't be explained?
808
00:43:01,786 --> 00:43:05,099
- Almost a blur under the
plane and pulled up front.
809
00:43:05,134 --> 00:43:07,170
- Don't call the guy
with a pack of cigs
810
00:43:07,205 --> 00:43:09,725
and a battery crazy or lazy.
811
00:43:09,759 --> 00:43:11,899
A spinal injury
means Jeff Challender
812
00:43:11,934 --> 00:43:13,763
spends most of this time in bed.
813
00:43:13,798 --> 00:43:17,111
What he sees from his
perch is out of this world.
814
00:43:17,146 --> 00:43:19,320
- Well that looks good.
- Jeff records
815
00:43:19,355 --> 00:43:22,461
and studies images from the
NASA Television channel.
816
00:43:22,496 --> 00:43:25,223
Most of it's been
uneventful, most of it.
817
00:43:25,257 --> 00:43:27,052
- We're gonna cross
that one that just,
818
00:43:27,087 --> 00:43:29,848
whoa, what was that?
- That was this.
819
00:43:29,883 --> 00:43:32,437
The bride object
ripping through space.
820
00:43:32,471 --> 00:43:36,130
- I ran the tape back a
little bit, watched it again,
821
00:43:36,165 --> 00:43:38,246
and I watched it again, and
I'm hollering down the hall,
822
00:43:38,270 --> 00:43:41,032
"Hey, honey, you
gotta come see this."
823
00:43:41,066 --> 00:43:42,550
- [Tony] The object
caught on tape
824
00:43:42,585 --> 00:43:45,933
did not come from, say, the
camcorder of a UFO enthusiast,
825
00:43:45,968 --> 00:43:48,833
but from NASA during the
shuttle Atlantis mission
826
00:43:48,867 --> 00:43:50,662
in September of 2000.
827
00:43:50,697 --> 00:43:54,355
Since 1999, Jeff figures
he's seen at least a hundred
828
00:43:54,390 --> 00:43:56,944
of what he calls
anomalous events,
829
00:43:56,979 --> 00:43:59,740
a fancy way of saying UFOs.
830
00:43:59,775 --> 00:44:01,500
Here's another one,
recorded during
831
00:44:01,535 --> 00:44:04,469
the recent Discovery
mission, and yet another.
832
00:44:04,503 --> 00:44:06,885
- They're not an ice chip,
they're not a piece of debris,
833
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,923
it's not the moon,
it's not a star,
834
00:44:09,957 --> 00:44:12,304
not another spacecraft,
not a satellite.
835
00:44:12,339 --> 00:44:13,685
- [Narrator] Jeffrey Challender
836
00:44:13,720 --> 00:44:16,205
was a NASA mission
researcher who stumbled upon
837
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:19,035
some strange behavior
being demonstrated on video
838
00:44:19,070 --> 00:44:21,451
during NASA's STS missions.
839
00:44:21,486 --> 00:44:23,039
Jeffrey pondered why the video
840
00:44:23,074 --> 00:44:26,077
which NASA beamed back to
earth from their space cameras
841
00:44:26,111 --> 00:44:28,666
was so noisy, and
filled with distortions.
842
00:44:28,700 --> 00:44:32,428
He thought, "Well if all our
TV and satellite programing
843
00:44:32,462 --> 00:44:34,361
comes from space clearly,
844
00:44:34,395 --> 00:44:37,122
why would NASA's come
through so horribly."
845
00:44:37,157 --> 00:44:39,021
Jeff witnessed several instances
846
00:44:39,055 --> 00:44:41,506
where NASA had clear
video broadcasts,
847
00:44:41,540 --> 00:44:45,406
but suddenly introduced noise
distortion and color banding
848
00:44:45,441 --> 00:44:48,444
that seemed to have been
intentionally added by NASA
849
00:44:48,478 --> 00:44:50,239
to obscure the picture.
850
00:44:50,273 --> 00:44:53,967
By watching NASA's STS
mission videos later,
851
00:44:54,001 --> 00:44:55,831
one may come across anomalies
852
00:44:55,865 --> 00:44:59,282
that could be labeled as
possible UFO sightings.
853
00:44:59,317 --> 00:45:02,113
It is observed that NASA
employs various methods
854
00:45:02,147 --> 00:45:04,943
to cover up such incidents
in the video feed.
855
00:45:04,978 --> 00:45:07,463
These protocols include
obfuscating the footage
856
00:45:07,497 --> 00:45:10,190
with digital noise or
changing the camera direction,
857
00:45:10,224 --> 00:45:12,019
switching to another camera,
858
00:45:12,054 --> 00:45:14,263
or completely cutting
off the video feed
859
00:45:14,297 --> 00:45:16,714
when an anomalous
object is detected.
860
00:45:16,748 --> 00:45:19,440
All these actions are carried
out by Mission Control
861
00:45:19,475 --> 00:45:22,340
through the CATO communication
and tracking officers
862
00:45:22,374 --> 00:45:23,721
stationed on earth.
863
00:45:25,377 --> 00:45:26,596
[NASA Narrator]
Different camera angle,
864
00:45:26,620 --> 00:45:30,831
we get a little view of
the Astro-2 telescopes
865
00:45:32,246 --> 00:45:36,354
moving off-screen now as
the camera is panned upward
866
00:45:36,388 --> 00:45:41,393
and gives us a look at
the sky above Endeavor.
867
00:45:43,154 --> 00:45:47,952
With stars visible on this
black and white camera,
868
00:45:49,850 --> 00:45:52,680
a low light sensitive camera.
869
00:45:58,583 --> 00:46:01,620
But we now have lost-
- I got a chance
870
00:46:01,655 --> 00:46:03,761
to sit down with James Fox,
871
00:46:03,795 --> 00:46:07,488
filmmaker and researcher
of the UFO phenomenon.
872
00:46:07,523 --> 00:46:10,491
He in his years spoke
to many astronauts
873
00:46:10,526 --> 00:46:13,356
some of which were in
support of the idea
874
00:46:13,391 --> 00:46:16,601
that extraterrestrials
may be visiting earth,
875
00:46:16,635 --> 00:46:18,568
others who were not.
876
00:46:18,603 --> 00:46:21,192
- I was told by very
close source of yours
877
00:46:21,226 --> 00:46:24,816
that you actually saw
something other than-
878
00:46:26,128 --> 00:46:30,132
- A lot of people have
said things that I saw,
879
00:46:30,166 --> 00:46:31,892
that doesn't mean that I saw it.
880
00:46:34,446 --> 00:46:36,310
- The last time I
called him he said,
881
00:46:36,345 --> 00:46:37,933
"Why don't you go talk to,"
882
00:46:37,967 --> 00:46:39,703
because I've got a telephone
number in my phone.
883
00:46:39,727 --> 00:46:41,729
He said, "why don't
you go talk to
884
00:46:41,764 --> 00:46:43,179
your buddy Edgar Mitchell?"
885
00:46:44,491 --> 00:46:48,012
He'll let him do the
talking, and very dismissive.
886
00:46:48,046 --> 00:46:51,567
And his sister said to me,
I was in the parking lot
887
00:46:51,601 --> 00:46:56,261
of College of Marin in
Kentfield, California,
888
00:46:56,296 --> 00:46:57,918
and I was just leaving
the parking lot
889
00:46:57,953 --> 00:47:00,748
and I talked to a
fan, and she goes,
890
00:47:02,095 --> 00:47:03,993
And I said to her,
"Can you believe
891
00:47:04,028 --> 00:47:04,925
what happened on CNN?"
892
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:06,513
She goes, "Somebody got to him."
893
00:47:06,547 --> 00:47:08,456
I said, "What do you mean?"
She goes, "Somebody got to him,
894
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,379
he won't even talk to
me anymore about it,
895
00:47:10,413 --> 00:47:12,415
he's denying it to me."
896
00:47:12,450 --> 00:47:14,176
That's what she told
me, I swear to God.
897
00:47:14,210 --> 00:47:15,418
I know it sounds crazy,
898
00:47:15,453 --> 00:47:16,740
but she said
somebody's gotten him
899
00:47:16,764 --> 00:47:19,112
because he won't even
share with me anymore.
900
00:47:19,146 --> 00:47:20,872
- Statistically it's a certainty
901
00:47:20,907 --> 00:47:24,462
there are hugely
advanced civilizations,
902
00:47:24,496 --> 00:47:26,464
intelligence
lifeforms out there.
903
00:47:26,498 --> 00:47:28,500
I believe they're so advanced
904
00:47:28,535 --> 00:47:30,744
that they're even doing
interstellar travel.
905
00:47:30,778 --> 00:47:33,195
I believe it's possible.
- Suddenly I look up
906
00:47:33,229 --> 00:47:35,714
and I see these five lights
and they seem to fly by.
907
00:47:35,749 --> 00:47:37,313
- [Dr. Brian] There
is abundant evidence
908
00:47:37,337 --> 00:47:39,235
that we are being contacted,
909
00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:42,376
that civilizations
have been visiting us
910
00:47:42,411 --> 00:47:43,791
for a very long time.
911
00:47:43,826 --> 00:47:47,312
And it was only later
when I began to embrace
912
00:47:47,347 --> 00:47:50,108
the UFO phenomenon,
the cover up,
913
00:47:50,143 --> 00:47:52,800
studying all these organizations
that are covering up,
914
00:47:52,835 --> 00:47:56,080
and having some direct
experience myself
915
00:47:56,114 --> 00:48:00,843
as a researcher, no longer
beholden to funding from NASA
916
00:48:00,878 --> 00:48:03,052
or the university environment,
917
00:48:03,087 --> 00:48:07,988
that I began to double
check some of Carl's work
918
00:48:08,023 --> 00:48:13,028
and I saw for example, the
famous face in Cydonia on Mars
919
00:48:13,925 --> 00:48:16,272
photographed by Viking in 1975,
920
00:48:16,307 --> 00:48:19,310
which shows this
gigantic human Mesa
921
00:48:19,344 --> 00:48:23,072
that resembles a human
face about a mile across.
922
00:48:23,107 --> 00:48:28,043
Carl was, and I debated this,
923
00:48:28,077 --> 00:48:31,460
and it was very, very
disappointing to me
924
00:48:31,494 --> 00:48:34,808
because not only was Carl wrong,
925
00:48:34,842 --> 00:48:36,568
he also fudged data.
926
00:48:36,603 --> 00:48:41,159
He he published a
picture of the face,
927
00:48:41,194 --> 00:48:43,851
and Parade Magazine a
popular article saying
928
00:48:43,886 --> 00:48:46,544
that the face is just
a natural formation,
929
00:48:46,578 --> 00:48:49,857
but he doctored the picture to
make it not look like a face
930
00:48:49,892 --> 00:48:52,826
and I began to
realize just directly,
931
00:48:52,860 --> 00:48:56,381
from a scientific point
of view, not only hearsay,
932
00:48:56,416 --> 00:48:59,833
that this man was
colluding with NASA,
933
00:48:59,867 --> 00:49:02,663
that there might be more
to this than before.
934
00:49:02,698 --> 00:49:06,874
- And of course eventually
I ran into Jesse Marcel Jr.
935
00:49:06,909 --> 00:49:11,914
The son of Jesse Marcel who
was the first military officer
936
00:49:13,019 --> 00:49:16,160
on the site, and
knew his story well,
937
00:49:16,194 --> 00:49:18,541
we became friends in later years
938
00:49:18,576 --> 00:49:20,095
in this disclosure movement.
939
00:49:21,268 --> 00:49:25,065
And at some point
about 10 years ago,
940
00:49:25,100 --> 00:49:28,068
and I can't remember what
date it was right now,
941
00:49:28,103 --> 00:49:33,108
When the disclosure movement
was under going strongly.
942
00:49:34,523 --> 00:49:36,663
I came here to Washington
with a Navy Commander
943
00:49:36,697 --> 00:49:41,702
with the name of Will
Miller, and Dr. Steven Greer.
944
00:49:43,118 --> 00:49:45,061
And we were able to get an
appointment at the Pentagon
945
00:49:45,085 --> 00:49:47,087
to talk about what we knew,
946
00:49:47,122 --> 00:49:50,608
or what we allegedly knew,
what we thought we knew.
947
00:49:50,642 --> 00:49:52,127
And went and told our story.
948
00:49:53,611 --> 00:49:58,305
And the powers would be at
the Intelligence Committee
949
00:49:58,340 --> 00:50:02,413
of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff listen to our story
950
00:50:03,828 --> 00:50:08,764
and said, the Admiral said,
"Well, I don't know that story,
951
00:50:10,145 --> 00:50:13,734
I don't know that that's
true, but I will find out."
952
00:50:13,769 --> 00:50:16,737
So we departed, went on our way.
953
00:50:16,772 --> 00:50:21,708
And subsequently learned
through Dr. Greer
954
00:50:22,709 --> 00:50:24,642
and through Will Miller
955
00:50:24,676 --> 00:50:28,542
that those stories
had been confirmed.
956
00:50:28,577 --> 00:50:32,753
And that the Admiral
had been denied access
957
00:50:32,788 --> 00:50:37,172
when he tried to get
into the inner workings
958
00:50:37,206 --> 00:50:38,207
of that process.
959
00:50:39,622 --> 00:50:44,110
And we had confirmation of that
960
00:50:44,144 --> 00:50:46,905
although that Admiral
now denies the fact
961
00:50:46,940 --> 00:50:49,701
that this is the fact.
962
00:50:49,736 --> 00:50:53,774
- And maybe Edgar-
- I don't believe
963
00:50:53,809 --> 00:50:57,330
that Edgar did, I
sat down in his home,
964
00:50:57,364 --> 00:51:00,505
and I was dying to
know what he knew.
965
00:51:00,540 --> 00:51:02,369
I was begging with him.
966
00:51:02,404 --> 00:51:03,888
And he said, "No,
as far as I know
967
00:51:03,922 --> 00:51:05,866
none of my friends have
had encounters in space."
968
00:51:05,890 --> 00:51:07,685
And I said, "What
about James McDivitt?"
969
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,515
He goes, "Well
actually, yeah there."
970
00:51:10,550 --> 00:51:12,793
But I interviewed
Gordon Cooper as well,
971
00:51:12,828 --> 00:51:14,761
and Gordon Cooper said
there's rumor circulating
972
00:51:14,795 --> 00:51:17,419
about me seeing UFOs
in space, but I didn't.
973
00:51:17,453 --> 00:51:20,629
He goes, "I did see UFO when I
was piloting a jet in Germany
974
00:51:20,663 --> 00:51:21,837
and tried to chase it.
975
00:51:21,871 --> 00:51:23,735
And we did have
the UFO that landed
976
00:51:23,770 --> 00:51:25,151
at Edwards Air Force Base."
977
00:51:25,185 --> 00:51:26,852
Which I saw the film footage
of, he didn't film it.
978
00:51:26,876 --> 00:51:29,396
- That was your interview.
- That was my interview, yes.
979
00:51:29,431 --> 00:51:31,674
- [Narrator] The
STS 51-A mission
980
00:51:31,709 --> 00:51:34,125
delivered the Canadian
communications satellite
981
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:39,165
TELESAT-H ANIK to geosynchronous
orbit, on flight day two,
982
00:51:40,338 --> 00:51:43,962
attached to the Payload
Assist Module-D PAM-D.
983
00:51:43,997 --> 00:51:46,689
On the third day, the defense
communications satellite
984
00:51:46,724 --> 00:51:51,694
SYNCOM IV-I, also known as
LEASAT-1 was also deployed.
985
00:51:55,146 --> 00:51:57,355
In a daring maneuver,
Allen and Gardner,
986
00:51:57,390 --> 00:52:00,393
equipped with jet-propelled
manned maneuvering units,
987
00:52:00,427 --> 00:52:02,809
retrieved two
malfunctioning satellites,
988
00:52:02,843 --> 00:52:06,019
PALAPA-B2 and WESTAR-VI,
989
00:52:06,053 --> 00:52:09,540
previously deployed
on Mission 41-B.
990
00:52:09,574 --> 00:52:12,750
Fisher expertly operated the
remote manipulator system,
991
00:52:12,784 --> 00:52:14,959
successfully grappling
the satellites
992
00:52:14,993 --> 00:52:17,410
and placing them
in the payload bay.
993
00:52:20,999 --> 00:52:23,278
During the maneuver
in which WESTAR-VI
994
00:52:23,312 --> 00:52:25,763
was being collected by
one of the astronauts,
995
00:52:25,797 --> 00:52:27,765
this peculiar metallic
looking sphere
996
00:52:27,799 --> 00:52:29,732
can be seen flying in behind
997
00:52:29,767 --> 00:52:31,941
as if it had dropped
in to take a look.
998
00:52:31,976 --> 00:52:34,979
[suspenseful music]
999
00:52:36,567 --> 00:52:38,465
UFOs like this
have been observed
1000
00:52:38,500 --> 00:52:40,881
on multiple occasions
throughout history.
1001
00:52:43,746 --> 00:52:47,509
Including this Cable
TV broadcast in
which a NASA downlink
1002
00:52:47,543 --> 00:52:50,167
is streaming live
space camera footage.

US military filmed UFO
over a conflict Zone.
1014
00:53:34,901 --> 00:53:39,285
It is officially

- [John] Hi, John Holliman
at CNN Center in Atlanta,
1018
00:53:47,327 --> 00:53:48,535
we're going to take you live
1019
00:53:48,570 --> 00:53:49,995
to the Kennedy Space
Center in Florida
1020
00:53:50,019 --> 00:53:52,263
where the countdown
clock is ticking off
1021
00:53:52,298 --> 00:53:55,093
the final two minutes and
12 seconds before launch
1022
00:53:55,128 --> 00:53:57,061
for Space Shuttle Discovery.
1023
00:53:57,095 --> 00:53:58,959
- [Narrator] STS 63 made history
1024
00:53:58,994 --> 00:54:00,754
with several groundbreaking
achievements,
1025
00:54:00,789 --> 00:54:03,170
including the first
female shuttle pilot,
1026
00:54:03,205 --> 00:54:06,035
the second Russian cosmonaut
flight on a shuttle,
1027
00:54:06,070 --> 00:54:08,624
and the first shuttle
approach and flyaround
1028
00:54:08,659 --> 00:54:10,695
of the Russian
Space Station Mir.
1029
00:54:12,904 --> 00:54:16,183
Starting on day one, thruster
burns were performed daily
1030
00:54:16,218 --> 00:54:18,565
to align Discovery with Mir.
1031
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,464
The plan was for the
orbiter to approach
1032
00:54:20,498 --> 00:54:22,949
no closer than 10
meters from Mir
1033
00:54:22,983 --> 00:54:24,640
and complete the flyaround.
1034
00:54:24,675 --> 00:54:26,608
[gentle music]
1035
00:54:26,642 --> 00:54:30,888
However, three of 44 Reaction
Control System thrusters
1036
00:54:30,922 --> 00:54:33,062
developed leaks
before the rendezvous.
1037
00:54:35,306 --> 00:54:37,515
Interestingly though,
the crew on this mission
1038
00:54:37,550 --> 00:54:39,586
would start naming
objects being seen
1039
00:54:39,621 --> 00:54:42,451
in the special UV
cameras as ice crystals.
1040
00:54:42,486 --> 00:54:45,558
[gentle music]
1041
00:54:45,592 --> 00:54:47,284
Perhaps though, they
were covering up
1042
00:54:47,318 --> 00:54:50,977
possible sightings of UFOs in
a different light spectrum.
1043
00:54:51,011 --> 00:54:53,600
[gentle music]
1044
00:54:55,464 --> 00:54:58,295
- [Astronaut] Houston, we're
looking at our payload camera
1045
00:54:58,329 --> 00:55:00,711
and looks like a lot
of moonlight glinting
off the ocean.
1046
00:55:00,745 --> 00:55:04,956
A whole sparkling bed
of diamonds out there.
1047
00:55:04,991 --> 00:55:06,268
Is that a real picture,
1048
00:55:06,303 --> 00:55:08,374
or are we just getting
some video fuzz?
1049
00:55:08,408 --> 00:55:10,341
- [Astronaut] We're
recording that.
1050
00:55:10,376 --> 00:55:11,963
That's some of the ice crystals
1051
00:55:11,998 --> 00:55:13,216
that we were
dumping out earlier,
1052
00:55:13,240 --> 00:55:15,864
and yeah it's a
beautiful picture.
1053
00:55:15,898 --> 00:55:17,866
- If there are code words
1054
00:55:17,900 --> 00:55:19,488
then I think it's pretty clear,
1055
00:55:19,523 --> 00:55:21,076
the astronauts would
have to know them
1056
00:55:21,110 --> 00:55:23,389
before they go up into orbit.
1057
00:55:23,423 --> 00:55:26,426
And then if they use them,
fine, if they see something.
1058
00:55:26,461 --> 00:55:27,921
- [Astronaut] We see
another light going by
1059
00:55:27,945 --> 00:55:29,256
on the ground there.
1060
00:55:29,291 --> 00:55:31,845
- That would have to
come, I would think,
1061
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,262
from some astronauts
being debriefed,
1062
00:55:35,297 --> 00:55:37,851
and mentioning that
they had seen something,
1063
00:55:37,886 --> 00:55:41,061
or else that NASA suspects
that it's possible
1064
00:55:41,096 --> 00:55:42,408
that they might see something,
1065
00:55:42,442 --> 00:55:45,169
and so they developed
some code words to use.
1066
00:55:46,515 --> 00:55:49,069
- [Narrator] STS-69 made
history by retrieving
1067
00:55:49,104 --> 00:55:52,038
and deploying two different
payloads on the same mission,
1068
00:55:52,072 --> 00:55:55,006
while also conducting an
extravehicular activity
1069
00:55:55,041 --> 00:55:58,044
to practice for International
Space Station tasks
1070
00:55:58,078 --> 00:56:00,564
and assess space
suit modifications.
1071
00:56:00,598 --> 00:56:02,600
[lively music]
1072
00:56:02,635 --> 00:56:07,122
During the mission's
second day, Spartan 201-03,
1073
00:56:07,156 --> 00:56:10,194
the first of two primary
payloads, was deployed.
1074
00:56:10,228 --> 00:56:13,231
Its mission objective was to
study the outer atmosphere
1075
00:56:13,266 --> 00:56:16,476
of the sun and its transition
into the solar wind
1076
00:56:16,511 --> 00:56:17,684
that passes earth.
1077
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,342
[lively music]
1078
00:56:20,377 --> 00:56:23,207
During this deployment a
UFO was witnessed on camera
1079
00:56:23,241 --> 00:56:26,210
by ground control
flying in the background
1080
00:56:26,244 --> 00:56:27,901
and changing it's direction.
1081
00:56:27,936 --> 00:56:30,490
[lively music]
1082
00:56:37,601 --> 00:56:41,121
[lively music continues]
1083
00:56:42,019 --> 00:56:44,297
- [Darcy] Now, let me ask you.
1084
00:56:44,331 --> 00:56:48,577
When people mention
the B2 bomber
1085
00:56:50,476 --> 00:56:53,962
and then you hear about
the Phoenix Lights,
1086
00:56:53,996 --> 00:56:56,689
or people mention the Mac Air.
1087
00:56:59,243 --> 00:57:02,729
Do you think that there's,
we've got to a point,
1088
00:57:02,764 --> 00:57:06,768
I mean, I see the
interviews from Bob Lazar,
1089
00:57:06,802 --> 00:57:11,151
he says we're nowhere close
to reverse engineering,
1090
00:57:11,186 --> 00:57:13,395
back when he was
working on the project
1091
00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:14,948
and propulsion system.
1092
00:57:17,364 --> 00:57:19,677
But then Ben Rich
contradicts that
1093
00:57:19,712 --> 00:57:23,854
and says we're 50 years
beyond your comprehension.
1094
00:57:23,888 --> 00:57:28,514
Do you think there are some
triangular shaped craft
1095
00:57:28,548 --> 00:57:30,757
that we have developed
1096
00:57:30,792 --> 00:57:34,278
that follow the description
of what people describe
1097
00:57:34,312 --> 00:57:35,590
as like the TR-3B?
1098
00:57:36,591 --> 00:57:38,178
- I would have to say yes.
1099
00:57:39,801 --> 00:57:44,599
There isn't anything
out there flying
1100
00:57:44,633 --> 00:57:46,221
regardless of the shape
1101
00:57:46,255 --> 00:57:49,293
that we don't have the
capabilities of reproducing
1102
00:57:49,327 --> 00:57:52,192
using conventional
means for propulsion.
1103
00:57:53,331 --> 00:57:54,436
Now there's been reports,
1104
00:57:54,471 --> 00:57:57,197
you see a UFO
heading down this way
1105
00:57:57,232 --> 00:58:00,960
at 4,000 miles an hour and
it makes a 90 degree turn.
1106
00:58:00,994 --> 00:58:03,410
You're pulling 40
G's on that turn.
1107
00:58:04,757 --> 00:58:07,691
A buddy of mine from the
skunkwork said we can do that,
1108
00:58:07,725 --> 00:58:09,382
we can do that any
day of the week,
1109
00:58:09,416 --> 00:58:10,797
not with humans in it.
1110
00:58:12,143 --> 00:58:19,634
But we put control computers
in artillery rounds
1111
00:58:21,877 --> 00:58:23,430
where we can, once
they're fired,
1112
00:58:23,465 --> 00:58:26,019
and it's a tremendous explosion,
1113
00:58:26,054 --> 00:58:29,298
but push that thing
out the barrel,
1114
00:58:29,333 --> 00:58:32,232
and the fins come out
and this thing's guided
1115
00:58:32,267 --> 00:58:34,856
to precisely hit
where it wants to go,
1116
00:58:34,890 --> 00:58:39,757
and they're pulling 40
to 100 G's on detonation.
1117
00:58:40,896 --> 00:58:43,968
So we have the hardware
and the electronics
1118
00:58:44,003 --> 00:58:47,040
that can withstand
those extremes.
1119
00:58:47,075 --> 00:58:49,698
But they're not they're
not human rated,
1120
00:58:49,733 --> 00:58:52,183
nor could a human
withstand those
1121
00:58:52,218 --> 00:58:54,254
under normal circumstances.
1122
00:58:54,289 --> 00:58:57,292
- [Darcy] So you worked
on some aircraft,
1123
00:58:57,326 --> 00:58:59,121
I think it was 1972, you said,
1124
00:58:59,156 --> 00:59:02,469
that had a drone attached
to the top of it.
1125
00:59:02,504 --> 00:59:07,302
You think that some of
the Delta shapes crafts
1126
00:59:07,336 --> 00:59:09,580
that were seeing
and hearing about
1127
00:59:09,615 --> 00:59:12,376
might be drones to some degree?
1128
00:59:12,410 --> 00:59:13,826
- Absolutely.
1129
00:59:13,860 --> 00:59:17,415
I mean, some of the stuff
that people are seeing
1130
00:59:17,450 --> 00:59:20,039
AND airline pilots
and other people,
1131
00:59:20,073 --> 00:59:22,489
trained observers.
- NASA.
1132
00:59:22,524 --> 00:59:26,666
- Guys from NASA and Air
Force types, whatever,
1133
00:59:26,701 --> 00:59:31,706
the first time I saw
an F-117 at sunset,
1134
00:59:32,603 --> 00:59:34,191
as the sun was going down,
1135
00:59:34,225 --> 00:59:39,230
the light was changing
on the faceted surfaces,
1136
00:59:40,369 --> 00:59:42,958
it looked like the F-117
was changing shape.
1137
00:59:42,993 --> 00:59:46,168
And if you look at a
head-on view of an F-117
1138
00:59:46,203 --> 00:59:50,587
it goes, it's a flying saucer
if you look at it straight on.
1139
00:59:51,726 --> 00:59:53,935
Now if you just saw
a glimpse of it,
1140
00:59:53,969 --> 00:59:55,661
or you saw the backside of it,
1141
00:59:55,695 --> 00:59:57,904
it could be mistaken
for almost anything.
1142
00:59:59,285 --> 01:00:02,599
- [Narrator] STS-73 was a
mission of historic proportions,
1143
01:00:02,633 --> 01:00:04,117
marked by the second flight
1144
01:00:04,152 --> 01:00:07,880
of the U.S. Microgravity
Laboratory, USML.
1145
01:00:07,914 --> 01:00:10,434
Building on the foundation
laid by its predecessor,
1146
01:00:10,468 --> 01:00:14,956
which flew on Columbia during
Mission STS-50 in 1992,
1147
01:00:14,990 --> 01:00:16,647
this mission was critical
1148
01:00:16,682 --> 01:00:19,167
on the advancement
of space research.
1149
01:00:19,201 --> 01:00:21,272
The crew was divided
into two teams,
1150
01:00:21,307 --> 01:00:23,550
working around the
clock in the 23-foot,
1151
01:00:23,585 --> 01:00:25,552
seven-meter long Space module
1152
01:00:25,587 --> 01:00:27,658
located in Columbia's
payload bay.
1153
01:00:27,693 --> 01:00:29,833
The pressure was on
as the team prepared
1154
01:00:29,867 --> 01:00:32,559
to tackle research in
five crucial areas.
1155
01:00:32,594 --> 01:00:36,425
On October 21st 1995,
Catherine Coleman
1156
01:00:36,460 --> 01:00:38,773
is seen peering out
a capsule window
1157
01:00:38,807 --> 01:00:42,086
when she is overheard saying
this to the ground control.
1158
01:00:42,121 --> 01:00:44,779
- [Catherine] We have an
unidentified flying object.
1159
01:00:44,813 --> 01:00:46,573
- [Narrator] After
this, the communication
1160
01:00:46,608 --> 01:00:48,265
goes completely silent.
1161
01:00:48,299 --> 01:00:49,887
It is well known
that the astronauts
1162
01:00:49,922 --> 01:00:52,614
have two radio channels,
one that is public
1163
01:00:52,649 --> 01:00:55,272
and another for the
Department of Defense.
1164
01:00:55,306 --> 01:00:58,068
It remains a possibility that
the rest of the conversation
1165
01:00:58,102 --> 01:00:59,241
would have been carried on
1166
01:00:59,276 --> 01:01:01,381
through an encrypted
DOD channel.
1167
01:01:02,555 --> 01:01:07,111
- There were some
shuttle missions
1168
01:01:07,146 --> 01:01:09,320
that were highly classified
1169
01:01:09,355 --> 01:01:12,634
that supported the Strategic
Defense Initiative,
1170
01:01:12,669 --> 01:01:16,362
where we had launched
satellites into space
1171
01:01:16,396 --> 01:01:21,401
from the STS vehicles,
for particular purpose.
1172
01:01:22,575 --> 01:01:23,759
I don't know what
the purpose was,
1173
01:01:23,783 --> 01:01:25,519
I was never briefed in
why they were doing it,
1174
01:01:25,543 --> 01:01:27,994
but you can guess what
they were trying to do.
1175
01:01:29,202 --> 01:01:34,207
And that was a good
disguise or cover
1176
01:01:35,899 --> 01:01:38,039
for deep space probes,
1177
01:01:38,073 --> 01:01:41,663
that I knew we had and it's
been released to the public now,
1178
01:01:41,698 --> 01:01:44,114
over the years people
have figured it out,
1179
01:01:44,148 --> 01:01:46,875
where we were launching
deep space probes
1180
01:01:46,910 --> 01:01:51,708
where these probes would go
out near the orbit of Mars
1181
01:01:53,192 --> 01:01:57,714
or even as far as Neptune, to
safeguard the solar system.
1182
01:01:59,163 --> 01:02:02,719
And that was the secret space
program that I knew about.
1183
01:02:02,753 --> 01:02:05,756
I didn't know about any other
kind of secret space program,
1184
01:02:05,791 --> 01:02:10,243
but I knew that we were able
to manufacture the satellites
1185
01:02:10,278 --> 01:02:12,625
back in those days,
and launch these,
1186
01:02:12,659 --> 01:02:15,697
and they were highly
classified, out into space.
1187
01:02:15,732 --> 01:02:17,492
I don't know how
many were out there
1188
01:02:17,526 --> 01:02:19,908
but there's some people that,
1189
01:02:21,703 --> 01:02:23,912
there are other people
within the community
1190
01:02:23,947 --> 01:02:26,570
that knows a lot more
about this than I do.
1191
01:02:26,604 --> 01:02:29,228
That knows that there's
10 or 12 of them
1192
01:02:29,262 --> 01:02:34,267
that are still out there
looking for visitors coming in,
1193
01:02:35,130 --> 01:02:36,314
so to speak, from other planets.
1194
01:02:36,338 --> 01:02:38,824
- Fastwalkers?
- Fastwalkers, yes.
1195
01:02:41,550 --> 01:02:46,003
- [Commentator] To ride the
astronaut van out to Pad 39B.
1196
01:02:46,038 --> 01:02:50,180
- STS-80.
- Houston go ahead
1197
01:02:50,214 --> 01:02:54,184
throttle up.
- Throttle up.
1198
01:02:55,772 --> 01:02:57,981
- [Narrator] The final
shuttle flight of 1996
1199
01:02:58,015 --> 01:03:00,224
was full of
incredible sightings.
1200
01:03:00,259 --> 01:03:03,538
It was highlighted
by the successful
deployment, operation,
1201
01:03:03,572 --> 01:03:07,024
and retrieval of two
free-flying research spacecraft.
1202
01:03:07,059 --> 01:03:09,820
[lively music]
1203
01:03:09,855 --> 01:03:13,306
The two planned extravehicular
activities, EVAs
1204
01:03:13,341 --> 01:03:14,583
were canceled.
1205
01:03:14,618 --> 01:03:17,138
On flight day one, the
Orbiting and Retrievable
1206
01:03:17,172 --> 01:03:20,451
Far and Extreme Ultraviolet
Spectrometer-Shuttle
1207
01:03:20,486 --> 01:03:24,628
Pallet Satellite II,
ORFEUS-SPAS II was deployed,
1208
01:03:24,662 --> 01:03:27,010
ready to begin its
approximately two weeks
1209
01:03:27,044 --> 01:03:28,459
of data-gathering.
1210
01:03:28,494 --> 01:03:30,634
This was its second
flight aboard the shuttle
1211
01:03:30,668 --> 01:03:34,362
and it was packed with three
primary scientific instruments
1212
01:03:34,396 --> 01:03:35,708
the ORFEUS-Telescope
1213
01:03:35,742 --> 01:03:38,987
with the Far Ultraviolet
FUV Spectrograph.
1214
01:03:39,022 --> 01:03:43,233
November 1996, during
the STS-80 mission,
1215
01:03:43,267 --> 01:03:45,338
NASA captured
fascinating footage
1216
01:03:45,373 --> 01:03:47,651
of what appears to
be UFO sightings.
1217
01:03:47,685 --> 01:03:50,240
[lively music]
1218
01:03:57,454 --> 01:04:01,596
[lively music continues]
1219
01:04:01,630 --> 01:04:04,185
In the recording, peculiar
objects can be seen
1220
01:04:04,219 --> 01:04:05,807
moving over Africa,
1221
01:04:05,842 --> 01:04:08,430
[lively music]
1222
01:04:15,817 --> 01:04:19,303
[lively music continues]
1223
01:04:21,340 --> 01:04:23,618
with the most
notable visualization
1224
01:04:23,652 --> 01:04:26,103
being an object that
enters the camera's shot
1225
01:04:26,138 --> 01:04:29,106
in a transparent or
almost corporeal state,
1226
01:04:29,141 --> 01:04:31,212
only to shine into existence
1227
01:04:31,246 --> 01:04:34,215
once it finds its position
within the atmosphere.
1228
01:04:34,249 --> 01:04:36,907
[lively music]
1229
01:04:40,773 --> 01:04:43,534
Additionally, there seem
to be multiple objects
1230
01:04:43,569 --> 01:04:46,192
that appear to hold
a circular formation,
1231
01:04:46,227 --> 01:04:48,919
with the final object
moving into the center
1232
01:04:48,954 --> 01:04:50,231
and lighting up.
1233
01:04:50,265 --> 01:04:52,992
The illuminated objects
seem to stay cohesively
1234
01:04:53,027 --> 01:04:56,099
in this formation, blinking
with the few along the top
1235
01:04:56,133 --> 01:04:58,101
ascending back into orbit.
1236
01:04:58,135 --> 01:05:01,173
Could space junk or ice perform
these kinds of maneuvers?
1237
01:05:01,207 --> 01:05:03,900
[lively music]
1238
01:05:04,831 --> 01:05:06,523
The seemingly deliberate nature
1239
01:05:06,557 --> 01:05:09,664
of the movement of these
objects seems near impossible
1240
01:05:09,698 --> 01:05:12,909
to explain away as naturally
occurring phenomena.
1241
01:05:14,358 --> 01:05:16,947
Former NASA employee Jim Oberg
1242
01:05:16,982 --> 01:05:19,467
has determined the
objects to be just ice,
1243
01:05:19,501 --> 01:05:23,126
which can be illuminated based
on near-earth conditions.
1244
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,370
However, other scientists
like Dr. Jack Kasher
1245
01:05:26,405 --> 01:05:28,614
say that this explanation
is impossible.
1246
01:05:28,648 --> 01:05:30,374
[lively music]
1247
01:05:30,409 --> 01:05:34,137
Also, during STS-80
this UFO activity
1248
01:05:34,171 --> 01:05:37,899
was captured while a storm
was taking place on earth.
1249
01:05:37,934 --> 01:05:39,487
At the beginning
of this sequence
1250
01:05:39,521 --> 01:05:42,007
we see a UFO fly into view
1251
01:05:42,041 --> 01:05:45,286
until it finds its place over
the electrical storm below.
1252
01:05:46,701 --> 01:05:49,152
The first object literally
descends, slows down,
1253
01:05:49,186 --> 01:05:51,568
and then finally
holds its position.
1254
01:05:53,846 --> 01:05:56,124
Would space ice be
able to move like this
1255
01:05:56,159 --> 01:05:58,713
and then maintain its
place so gracefully?
1256
01:05:58,747 --> 01:06:01,336
[lively music]
1257
01:06:07,170 --> 01:06:10,483
Later on we see that three
objects have congregated
1258
01:06:10,518 --> 01:06:12,002
over this same location
1259
01:06:12,037 --> 01:06:15,419
that we originally saw this
electrical storm taking place.
1260
01:06:15,454 --> 01:06:18,008
[lively music]
1261
01:06:25,671 --> 01:06:29,088
[lively music continues]
1262
01:06:35,681 --> 01:06:39,167
[lively music continues]
1263
01:06:46,278 --> 01:06:49,419
Even more peculiar is that
the NASA camera operator
1264
01:06:49,453 --> 01:06:52,042
seems to take interest
in these objects,
1265
01:06:52,077 --> 01:06:55,218
exemplified by their zooming
in to get a better shot
1266
01:06:55,252 --> 01:06:56,736
of the objects.
1267
01:06:56,771 --> 01:06:59,532
In which we can see the
original object ascending
1268
01:06:59,567 --> 01:07:02,190
while another descends
into the atmosphere.
1269
01:07:02,225 --> 01:07:04,744
[lively music]
1270
01:07:04,779 --> 01:07:06,815
Is this not evidence that NASA
1271
01:07:06,850 --> 01:07:08,369
at least holds some interest
1272
01:07:08,403 --> 01:07:10,923
in tracking
unidentified objects?
1273
01:07:10,957 --> 01:07:13,512
[lively music]
1274
01:07:25,420 --> 01:07:27,422
[lively music continues]
1275
01:07:27,457 --> 01:07:28,251
- [Astronaut] The satellite.
1276
01:07:28,285 --> 01:07:30,253
[lively music]
1277
01:07:30,287 --> 01:07:32,427
Again, just moving into sunrise.
1278
01:07:32,462 --> 01:07:35,706
[lively music]
1279
01:07:35,741 --> 01:07:38,985
81 nautical miles
now from Columbia.
1280
01:07:40,401 --> 01:07:41,654
- [Astronaut] Columbia,
Houston could you tell us
1281
01:07:41,678 --> 01:07:43,197
what your TV view is showing?
1282
01:07:44,405 --> 01:07:46,890
- [Houston] Well, the
sun has actually risen
1283
01:07:46,924 --> 01:07:48,581
on the belly side of the orbiter
1284
01:07:48,616 --> 01:07:51,619
so we're getting some
light scattered down
1285
01:07:51,653 --> 01:07:54,656
from a very bright pale
onto the camera lens.
1286
01:07:54,691 --> 01:07:58,108
And then those little
white dots moving around
1287
01:07:58,143 --> 01:08:00,490
are little ice crystals
surrounding the orbiter.
1288
01:08:00,524 --> 01:08:05,460
So as we come into
across the terminator,
1289
01:08:08,153 --> 01:08:10,569
guess we'll turn on one
of the color cameras.
1290
01:08:10,603 --> 01:08:13,261
[lively music]
1291
01:08:13,296 --> 01:08:14,445
- [Astronaut] Copy
that, I was waiting
1292
01:08:14,469 --> 01:08:16,782
for the opening
credits of "Star Trek"
1293
01:08:16,816 --> 01:08:18,784
to go down the screen there.
1294
01:08:18,818 --> 01:08:21,752
- So how do you know if
a signal is due to ET
1295
01:08:21,787 --> 01:08:24,100
or just due to other humans?
1296
01:08:25,308 --> 01:08:26,699
That's a problem that's
existed for a long time.
1297
01:08:26,723 --> 01:08:29,588
So the answer these days
is fairly sophisticated
1298
01:08:29,622 --> 01:08:32,453
in this sense, that
it's a good filter
1299
01:08:32,487 --> 01:08:33,902
to be able to
throw out the stuff
1300
01:08:33,937 --> 01:08:35,697
that you really
not interested in.
1301
01:08:35,732 --> 01:08:38,010
To begin with, there's
this big database
1302
01:08:38,044 --> 01:08:40,219
that's kept by all the
radio observatories
1303
01:08:40,254 --> 01:08:41,703
that are looking for ET
1304
01:08:41,738 --> 01:08:44,534
of known interference causers,
1305
01:08:44,568 --> 01:08:48,952
which some, for example
GPS transmitters, right?
1306
01:08:48,986 --> 01:08:51,541
The GPS satellites, they're
sending down signals to earth
1307
01:08:51,575 --> 01:08:53,784
all the time, and you
occasionally pick those up,
1308
01:08:53,819 --> 01:08:55,303
if not from our system,
1309
01:08:55,338 --> 01:08:58,582
but from the ones used by
the Russians, for example.
1310
01:08:58,617 --> 01:09:02,345
So these are, they're just
known interferes if you will,
1311
01:09:02,379 --> 01:09:03,829
and known noise makers,
1312
01:09:03,863 --> 01:09:06,176
and if you pick up a signal
that's at the frequency
1313
01:09:06,211 --> 01:09:08,903
of a known noise maker,
you can ignore it.
1314
01:09:08,937 --> 01:09:12,527
That's one thing you do,
but the the really acid test
1315
01:09:12,562 --> 01:09:15,116
for deciding whether this
signal is really it, Bob,
1316
01:09:15,151 --> 01:09:17,774
or is this just another
a bit of interference?
1317
01:09:17,808 --> 01:09:19,016
Is if you pick up suddenly,
1318
01:09:19,051 --> 01:09:20,708
you're looking at a
particular direction,
1319
01:09:20,742 --> 01:09:22,203
you just move the
antenna a little bit
1320
01:09:22,227 --> 01:09:23,687
so you're not looking
in that direction,
1321
01:09:23,711 --> 01:09:24,964
you're looking at
another direction.
1322
01:09:24,988 --> 01:09:26,990
Do you still see the signal?
1323
01:09:27,024 --> 01:09:29,682
If it's terrestrial
interference, it's
something man-made,
1324
01:09:29,717 --> 01:09:32,306
You'll find the signal almost
anywhere you look, okay?
1325
01:09:32,340 --> 01:09:33,524
But if you don't see
it, then you say,
1326
01:09:33,548 --> 01:09:35,654
"Well, okay, I'll
move the antenna back
1327
01:09:35,688 --> 01:09:37,518
and point at that
star system again
1328
01:09:37,552 --> 01:09:39,692
and see if I pick up
the signal again."
1329
01:09:39,727 --> 01:09:41,177
So nodding back and forth,
1330
01:09:41,211 --> 01:09:44,352
nodding the telescope around
the sky near the source
1331
01:09:44,387 --> 01:09:46,803
is a very, very solid indicator
1332
01:09:46,837 --> 01:09:48,114
of whether this is something
1333
01:09:48,149 --> 01:09:49,806
you should spend more time on.
1334
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,222
- [Darcy] We live in
fascinating times.
1335
01:09:52,257 --> 01:09:55,225
Avi Loeb a prominent
astrophysicist
1336
01:09:55,260 --> 01:09:57,572
and professor at
Harvard University
1337
01:09:57,607 --> 01:09:59,781
has gained attention
in recent years
1338
01:09:59,816 --> 01:10:02,922
for his controversial
claims about a possibility
1339
01:10:02,957 --> 01:10:04,924
of an alien technology
1340
01:10:04,959 --> 01:10:09,066
that might have visited
our solar system in 2017,
1341
01:10:09,101 --> 01:10:12,587
Oumuamua, a large
Interstellar object.
1342
01:10:12,622 --> 01:10:16,660
Now, since then Avi
Loeb's project Galileo
1343
01:10:16,695 --> 01:10:20,595
has been launched, a
not-for-profit organization
1344
01:10:20,630 --> 01:10:24,081
that aims to search
for and study
1345
01:10:24,116 --> 01:10:27,188
potential technological
artifacts,
1346
01:10:27,223 --> 01:10:31,157
or evidence of extraterrestrial
life in our solar system.
1347
01:10:31,192 --> 01:10:36,197
I got to talk to HawkEye
360s founder, Bob McGuire.
1348
01:10:37,578 --> 01:10:41,167
Bob McGuire makes a living
by building satellites
1349
01:10:41,202 --> 01:10:43,273
that go into low earth orbit.
1350
01:10:43,308 --> 01:10:46,552
He knows full well
that there are UAP
1351
01:10:46,587 --> 01:10:50,798
floating around in
space, but he is dubious
1352
01:10:50,832 --> 01:10:55,803
about this project that
Avi Loeb is launching.
1353
01:10:57,011 --> 01:10:59,393
- Avi Loeb is at
Harvard University
1354
01:10:59,427 --> 01:11:01,049
which is a private university.
1355
01:11:01,084 --> 01:11:05,191
And he has secured
funding to do the work
1356
01:11:05,226 --> 01:11:07,677
on Project Galileo
to some extent.
1357
01:11:07,711 --> 01:11:09,955
Seth implies that
he has enough money
1358
01:11:09,989 --> 01:11:12,751
to put a few observatories out.
1359
01:11:12,785 --> 01:11:15,685
So a few observatories are
not going to blank at the sky
1360
01:11:15,719 --> 01:11:17,859
with coverage, we
won't find everything
1361
01:11:17,894 --> 01:11:20,724
that's in low earth orbit,
or in air atmosphere
1362
01:11:20,759 --> 01:11:24,866
because the capabilities
of these observatories
1363
01:11:24,901 --> 01:11:28,284
will be only a handful of
square miles on the surface.
1364
01:11:28,318 --> 01:11:29,699
There's just, the probability
1365
01:11:29,733 --> 01:11:32,667
of a significant
detection is low.
1366
01:11:32,702 --> 01:11:37,707
So Avi needs lots, and
lots, and lots of money
1367
01:11:38,570 --> 01:11:39,916
to build enough observatories
1368
01:11:39,950 --> 01:11:42,988
to cover a significant
fraction of the earth.
1369
01:11:43,022 --> 01:11:44,955
So the probability of detection
1370
01:11:44,990 --> 01:11:48,373
of UFOs or UAP's goes way up.
1371
01:11:48,407 --> 01:11:51,824
If in fact they're visiting,
then the probability goes up
1372
01:11:51,859 --> 01:11:53,723
as you increase
the coverage more.
1373
01:11:53,757 --> 01:11:56,829
And Avi right now is trying
to find funding to do that.
1374
01:11:56,864 --> 01:11:59,591
Seth is on his advisory group,
1375
01:11:59,625 --> 01:12:01,696
and I do believe that
we should figure out
1376
01:12:01,731 --> 01:12:03,319
what these UAP's are,
1377
01:12:03,353 --> 01:12:08,324
but I think it's going to, I
have a hard time understanding
1378
01:12:09,704 --> 01:12:11,879
how we're ever going to build
enough sensors privately
1379
01:12:11,913 --> 01:12:16,055
to look up all the way
to low earth orbit.
1380
01:12:16,090 --> 01:12:17,885
Yeah, I really, I support SETI,
1381
01:12:17,919 --> 01:12:21,647
I support SETI's use
of highly advanced
1382
01:12:21,682 --> 01:12:25,410
scientific instruments to
look at other star systems,
1383
01:12:25,444 --> 01:12:27,550
to see if we can detect signals
1384
01:12:27,584 --> 01:12:29,310
that are produced
by intelligent life.
1385
01:12:29,345 --> 01:12:32,037
Because the Earth is rotating
where the antenna is,
1386
01:12:32,071 --> 01:12:33,935
so the signal goes
up in strength,
1387
01:12:33,970 --> 01:12:35,420
and then down in strength.
1388
01:12:35,454 --> 01:12:37,732
So that's how you know,
it's outside of the earth.
1389
01:12:37,767 --> 01:12:41,529
If you determine these
Newtonian physics,
1390
01:12:41,564 --> 01:12:43,531
Einstein and Newtonian together,
1391
01:12:43,566 --> 01:12:45,775
which says speed of
light is the limit,
1392
01:12:45,809 --> 01:12:48,536
they can't figure out we're
here to aim a signal at us
1393
01:12:48,571 --> 01:12:51,332
and then wait 50,000 years
for the signal to get here,
1394
01:12:51,367 --> 01:12:54,887
and 50,000 years for us to
respond, what's the point?
1395
01:12:54,922 --> 01:12:58,097
Okay so, either they travel
faster than the speed of light
1396
01:12:58,132 --> 01:12:59,409
and they're visiting us,
1397
01:12:59,444 --> 01:13:02,101
or there's no point in
them sending a signal
1398
01:13:02,136 --> 01:13:03,586
that we can detect.
1399
01:13:03,620 --> 01:13:06,416
And you only see it once so
what do you gain by that?
1400
01:13:06,451 --> 01:13:07,866
You don't gain much.
1401
01:13:07,900 --> 01:13:10,558
I'm happy for private
dollars to be spent on SETI.
1402
01:13:10,593 --> 01:13:12,111
Why do I support that?
1403
01:13:12,146 --> 01:13:15,908
I'll tell you why, my tax
dollars don't pay for it.
1404
01:13:15,943 --> 01:13:18,808
Because that's such a
low probability event
1405
01:13:18,842 --> 01:13:21,466
that I don't want my tax
dollars being spent for that.
1406
01:13:21,500 --> 01:13:24,158
- [Darcy] Can you tell me
a bit about your experience
1407
01:13:24,192 --> 01:13:27,333
finding out that maybe the NRO
1408
01:13:27,368 --> 01:13:32,373
was putting up satellite
systems or space probes
1409
01:13:33,443 --> 01:13:36,619
that had the
ability to see UFOs,
1410
01:13:36,653 --> 01:13:40,864
but they had switched
off that tracking
1411
01:13:42,383 --> 01:13:43,522
from the system.
1412
01:13:43,557 --> 01:13:45,731
- Okay, so I can explain that.
1413
01:13:45,766 --> 01:13:50,771
So the government knows that
it is trying to detect activity
1414
01:13:52,566 --> 01:13:57,191
by our earth bound
potential adversaries,
1415
01:13:57,225 --> 01:14:01,471
so they have a sensor,
they point it at the earth,
1416
01:14:01,506 --> 01:14:05,544
and what they do is
from all the events,
1417
01:14:05,579 --> 01:14:08,029
one of these
spacecrafts it detects,
1418
01:14:08,064 --> 01:14:11,895
they filter what's coming
from the spacecraft
1419
01:14:11,930 --> 01:14:16,382
to identify the objects
that they are interested in.
1420
01:14:16,417 --> 01:14:20,283
They are literally throwing
away in many cases,
1421
01:14:20,317 --> 01:14:24,252
things like UFOs entering
the earth's atmosphere
1422
01:14:24,287 --> 01:14:26,358
because they're not
interested in that
1423
01:14:26,392 --> 01:14:29,016
because the Soviet Union,
or Russia, or China,
1424
01:14:29,050 --> 01:14:32,088
or North Korea is not
going to send a UFO at us
1425
01:14:32,122 --> 01:14:33,583
they're going to send
an intercontinental
1426
01:14:33,607 --> 01:14:35,091
ballistic missile to us.
1427
01:14:35,125 --> 01:14:40,027
So their job is to detect
activity by our adversaries
1428
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:42,557
that can harm our
national interests,
1429
01:14:42,581 --> 01:14:45,135
are national security
threat to us.
1430
01:14:45,170 --> 01:14:49,623
And so we, they necessarily
filter out everything
1431
01:14:49,657 --> 01:14:53,109
that is not one of these
things that they care about
1432
01:14:53,143 --> 01:14:55,318
because they're going to
treat it like it's noise.
1433
01:14:55,352 --> 01:14:57,216
And so they want to
filter out all the noise,
1434
01:14:57,251 --> 01:14:59,425
so they get really
high quality detects
1435
01:14:59,460 --> 01:15:01,117
of say missile launches.
1436
01:15:01,151 --> 01:15:03,706
[gentle music]
1437
01:15:10,333 --> 01:15:13,819
[gentle music continues]
1438
01:15:18,444 --> 01:15:20,205
- [Narrator] STS-114.
1439
01:15:22,587 --> 01:15:24,387
STS-114 was the first
Return to Flight mission
1440
01:15:26,142 --> 01:15:30,422
since the tragic loss of
Columbia February 1st, 2003.
1441
01:15:31,596 --> 01:15:33,563
Two and a half years
were spent researching
1442
01:15:33,598 --> 01:15:35,531
and implementing
safety improvements
1443
01:15:35,565 --> 01:15:38,050
for orbiters and external tanks.
1444
01:15:40,743 --> 01:15:43,573
They included greater
in-depth examination
1445
01:15:43,608 --> 01:15:45,299
of reinforced carbon panels
1446
01:15:45,333 --> 01:15:47,888
that are used on the
wing leading edges,
1447
01:15:49,924 --> 01:15:54,170
plus replacing bolts and new
foam applications on the tanks.
1448
01:15:57,276 --> 01:16:00,452
Discovery's climb to orbit
was extensively documented
1449
01:16:00,486 --> 01:16:04,145
through a system of new and
upgraded ground-based cameras,
1450
01:16:04,180 --> 01:16:06,562
radar systems, and
airborne cameras
1451
01:16:06,596 --> 01:16:08,805
aboard high altitude aircraft.
1452
01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,532
[gentle music]
1453
01:16:12,982 --> 01:16:15,640
The imagery captured
of Discovery's launch,
1454
01:16:15,674 --> 01:16:18,228
and additional imagery
from laser systems
1455
01:16:18,263 --> 01:16:22,405
on Discovery's new Orbiter Boom
Sensor System laser-scanner
1456
01:16:23,579 --> 01:16:25,857
as well as data from
sensors embedded
1457
01:16:25,891 --> 01:16:27,341
in the shuttle's wings,
1458
01:16:27,375 --> 01:16:29,619
helped mission managers
determine the health
1459
01:16:29,654 --> 01:16:32,104
of Discovery's thermal
protection system.
1460
01:16:32,139 --> 01:16:34,797
[gentle music]
1461
01:16:36,108 --> 01:16:38,283
During the mission,
while the UV Camera
1462
01:16:38,317 --> 01:16:40,941
peered out into space
with the planet's horizon
1463
01:16:40,975 --> 01:16:44,876
in the background,
an object can be seen
1464
01:16:44,910 --> 01:16:46,878
flying with intelligent control.
1465
01:16:46,912 --> 01:16:49,605
[gentle music]
1466
01:16:51,261 --> 01:16:54,126
It changes it's direction
as it speeds off camera.
1467
01:16:54,161 --> 01:16:56,750
[gentle music]
1468
01:16:58,510 --> 01:17:01,099
[lively music]
1469
01:17:02,169 --> 01:17:04,205
STS-115.
1470
01:17:05,621 --> 01:17:10,349
The STS-115 crew was on a
mission of utmost importance,
1471
01:17:10,384 --> 01:17:12,317
tasked with delivering
and installing
1472
01:17:12,351 --> 01:17:15,216
the crucial P3/P4
truss structure
1473
01:17:15,251 --> 01:17:17,425
on the International
Space Station.
1474
01:17:17,460 --> 01:17:19,738
With the success of
the entire mission
1475
01:17:19,773 --> 01:17:22,776
resting on their shoulders,
the crew began their work,
1476
01:17:22,810 --> 01:17:26,365
prepared to face any
challenge that may lay ahead.
1477
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,782
Three perilous
spacewalks were planned
1478
01:17:28,816 --> 01:17:31,198
each one more challenging
than the previous,
1479
01:17:31,232 --> 01:17:35,685
as space walkers Joe Tanner,
Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper,
1480
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:39,585
Dan Burbank, and Steve
MacLean worked tirelessly
1481
01:17:39,620 --> 01:17:44,004
to connect power cables and
activate the new P3/P4 truss.
1482
01:17:46,109 --> 01:17:49,665
However, this mission was
not without surprises.
1483
01:17:49,699 --> 01:17:52,046
Three separate UFO incidents
1484
01:17:52,081 --> 01:17:54,359
were reported
during the mission.
1485
01:17:54,393 --> 01:17:56,948
In one incident, the
crew tracked an object
1486
01:17:56,982 --> 01:18:00,089
with a triangular formation
of lights flying nearby.
1487
01:18:04,541 --> 01:18:05,508
- [Astronaut] The
best view we got
1488
01:18:05,542 --> 01:18:07,130
was through the binoculars,
1489
01:18:07,165 --> 01:18:09,615
and the best way
I can describe it
1490
01:18:09,650 --> 01:18:13,689
is there's some kind
of reflective cloak,
1491
01:18:15,414 --> 01:18:20,419
or metallic looking
type of cloak
1492
01:18:21,593 --> 01:18:23,871
of a structure that
definitely not rigid,
1493
01:18:23,906 --> 01:18:28,600
or it's not a solid
metal structure.
1494
01:18:30,671 --> 01:18:32,708
- [Astronaut] It
Started it over Window 8
1495
01:18:33,916 --> 01:18:37,229
then quickly moved
towards the nose,
1496
01:18:40,267 --> 01:18:43,063
and we tracked it
through windows one, two,
1497
01:18:45,375 --> 01:18:50,380
three, four, and now it's
at about windows five.
1498
01:18:55,075 --> 01:18:56,248
It's moving away.
1499
01:19:00,701 --> 01:19:01,978
Pans off, we're losing it.
1500
01:19:05,775 --> 01:19:07,432
Right now it's about 12:30
1501
01:19:07,466 --> 01:19:09,710
and it's passing out in
front of the vehicle.
1502
01:19:12,126 --> 01:19:14,888
- [Ground Control] Copy that,
can you get a still imagery
1503
01:19:14,922 --> 01:19:17,442
if you can, and any
estimate on size or range?
1504
01:19:18,650 --> 01:19:23,137
- Visual on that?
- We do see that.
1505
01:19:24,518 --> 01:19:26,520
- [Astronaut] Okay,
that's looking out
1506
01:19:26,554 --> 01:19:27,763
in front of the Orbiter.
1507
01:19:30,282 --> 01:19:32,398
- [Ground Control] Okay, we're
seeing three or four objects,
1508
01:19:32,422 --> 01:19:34,286
can you confirm that
it's just the one
1509
01:19:34,321 --> 01:19:37,324
that's actually moving, the
other ones are just reflections.
1510
01:19:39,429 --> 01:19:41,915
- [Astronaut] There
are three objects,
1511
01:19:41,949 --> 01:19:44,262
The one you see, you see
two rings right there,
1512
01:19:44,296 --> 01:19:47,196
they're the ones we had
the late tally ho on,
1513
01:19:47,230 --> 01:19:51,372
the one down the bottom, that
was the one we initially saw.
1514
01:19:51,407 --> 01:19:54,134
- Crazy alert, aliens
after Atlantis?
1515
01:19:54,168 --> 01:19:56,722
Official video from the latest
NASA space shuttle mission
1516
01:19:56,757 --> 01:20:00,278
appears to show what
might be UFOs in space.
1517
01:20:00,312 --> 01:20:02,142
A segment from
the live NASA feed
1518
01:20:02,176 --> 01:20:05,248
shows the cargo bay of
the Space Shuttle Atlantis
1519
01:20:05,283 --> 01:20:07,664
and what appears to be
three flying objects
1520
01:20:07,699 --> 01:20:09,563
directly above the shuttle.
1521
01:20:09,597 --> 01:20:12,669
The objects are in motion
in a triangular formation
1522
01:20:12,704 --> 01:20:15,362
how we often imagine
UFOs might move.
1523
01:20:15,396 --> 01:20:16,673
The narrator of the live feed
1524
01:20:16,708 --> 01:20:19,090
tries to explain
the objects away
1525
01:20:19,124 --> 01:20:21,955
with a less than convincing
story, take a listen.
1526
01:20:23,094 --> 01:20:24,312
- [Houston] This is
Mission Control Houston
1527
01:20:24,336 --> 01:20:26,925
with Atlantis Commander
Brent, talking with us
1528
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:28,385
are on high alert here
in Mission Control
1529
01:20:28,409 --> 01:20:33,414
about an object the crew members
noted outside the windows
1530
01:20:34,277 --> 01:20:35,461
of this Space Shuttle Atlantis,
1531
01:20:35,485 --> 01:20:38,523
describing it as some
kind of reflective
1532
01:20:38,557 --> 01:20:41,388
or metallic looking cloth,
1533
01:20:41,422 --> 01:20:44,460
but definitely not a
rigid or metal object.
1534
01:20:44,494 --> 01:20:48,050
- Yeah right, there just happen
to be three identical pieces
1535
01:20:48,084 --> 01:20:50,190
of massive metallic
cloth moving around
1536
01:20:50,224 --> 01:20:52,261
in a constant
formation in space.
1537
01:20:52,295 --> 01:20:54,746
So one of the most
convincing UFO videos yet,
1538
01:20:54,780 --> 01:20:56,782
it appears more likely than ever
1539
01:20:56,817 --> 01:20:58,888
that we might have
company in our universe.
1540
01:21:00,303 --> 01:21:02,005
- [Narrator] As the end of
NASA's Atlantis shuttle mission
1541
01:21:02,029 --> 01:21:05,722
STS-115 approached,
the crew prepared
1542
01:21:05,757 --> 01:21:08,760
for the crucial moment of
making a controlled re-entry
1543
01:21:08,794 --> 01:21:10,624
into the earth's atmosphere.
1544
01:21:10,658 --> 01:21:12,108
But as they descended,
1545
01:21:12,143 --> 01:21:14,939
their instruments suddenly
detected a mysterious object
1546
01:21:14,973 --> 01:21:18,149
hovering nearby, blocking
their intended entryway.
1547
01:21:18,183 --> 01:21:20,841
Tension filled the cabin
as the crew realized
1548
01:21:20,876 --> 01:21:22,947
the danger of the
potential collision.
1549
01:21:22,981 --> 01:21:25,121
NASA's explanation to the press,
1550
01:21:25,156 --> 01:21:28,469
upon the crew's safe
arrival, after a long delay,
1551
01:21:28,504 --> 01:21:32,439
was that this large object
was simply a piece of plastic.
1552
01:21:32,473 --> 01:21:35,131
[lively music]
1553
01:21:40,033 --> 01:21:44,520
- But a piece of plastic
very much like this
1554
01:21:44,554 --> 01:21:46,867
that's used to install tiles,
1555
01:21:48,179 --> 01:21:51,423
was there before, is
most likely what we saw
1556
01:21:51,458 --> 01:21:53,391
in that camera
view floating away.
1557
01:21:53,425 --> 01:21:57,084
- So this Tehran pilot
that almost crashed his F-4
1558
01:21:57,119 --> 01:21:59,190
back in the 70s in Tehran.
1559
01:21:59,224 --> 01:22:02,400
That was an incident their
government should care about it.
1560
01:22:02,434 --> 01:22:05,782
So these interactions
off the east coast
1561
01:22:05,817 --> 01:22:09,096
with the flight crews from
the USS Teddy Roosevelt.
1562
01:22:09,131 --> 01:22:13,376
They almost crashed into a
UAP that flew between them
1563
01:22:13,411 --> 01:22:15,689
and missed their
wingtips by 50 feet.
1564
01:22:15,723 --> 01:22:18,623
So what he called
an energy sphere,
1565
01:22:18,657 --> 01:22:21,143
a cube inside of an
energy looking sphere.
1566
01:22:21,177 --> 01:22:25,250
And it passed within
50 feet between Graves
1567
01:22:25,285 --> 01:22:29,806
and his wing man, and that
is a safety to flight hazard.
1568
01:22:29,841 --> 01:22:33,327
They are being exhibiting
hazardous behavior.
1569
01:22:33,362 --> 01:22:35,812
It's their job to determine
1570
01:22:35,847 --> 01:22:38,022
what these things are
and whether or not
1571
01:22:38,056 --> 01:22:39,540
they are actually a threat,
1572
01:22:39,575 --> 01:22:41,611
that is the job of
the defense department
1573
01:22:41,646 --> 01:22:43,475
and the intelligence community.
1574
01:22:43,510 --> 01:22:46,237
Is to analyze and assess
1575
01:22:46,271 --> 01:22:48,032
whether or not these
things are a threat.
1576
01:22:48,066 --> 01:22:50,827
- [Narrator] Seth Shostak
is an American astronomer
1577
01:22:50,862 --> 01:22:54,659
and author, currently serving
as the senior astronomer
1578
01:22:54,693 --> 01:22:56,178
for The SETI Institute.
1579
01:22:56,212 --> 01:22:59,077
He appears to hold a
belief that sets him apart
1580
01:22:59,112 --> 01:23:00,941
from many in his field.
1581
01:23:00,976 --> 01:23:02,978
Despite the vast
amount of evidence
1582
01:23:03,012 --> 01:23:06,153
and numerous eyewitness
accounts surrounding UFOs,
1583
01:23:06,188 --> 01:23:09,329
he remains convinced that the
government has nothing to hide
1584
01:23:09,363 --> 01:23:11,089
from the public regarding them.
1585
01:23:11,124 --> 01:23:13,850
- I think that when it
comes to suggestions
1586
01:23:13,885 --> 01:23:15,449
that maybe the government
is covering up,
1587
01:23:15,473 --> 01:23:18,303
that's a very popular
idea in the United States.
1588
01:23:18,338 --> 01:23:20,996
I've lived in Europe, it's
not such a popular idea there
1589
01:23:21,030 --> 01:23:22,249
people don't figure
that their government
1590
01:23:22,273 --> 01:23:24,068
is covering up important info.
1591
01:23:24,102 --> 01:23:27,416
But clearly in the US,
if it's defense related
1592
01:23:27,450 --> 01:23:29,004
there may be secrecy.
1593
01:23:29,038 --> 01:23:31,213
People ask me all the
time about Area 51.
1594
01:23:31,247 --> 01:23:35,320
Well, Area 51 is a test range
for new military aircraft.
1595
01:23:35,355 --> 01:23:37,574
And of course, you're going to
keep that secret if you can,
1596
01:23:37,598 --> 01:23:39,980
otherwise, you get pictures
of your latest fighter
1597
01:23:40,015 --> 01:23:41,188
and going to the enemy.
1598
01:23:41,223 --> 01:23:44,053
So, there's always some
secrecy in government,
1599
01:23:44,088 --> 01:23:46,918
but it isn't secrecy
that pertains to science.
1600
01:23:46,952 --> 01:23:48,575
Never, I've never
come across that
1601
01:23:48,609 --> 01:23:52,682
and I was supported by NASA
actually in grad school,
1602
01:23:52,717 --> 01:23:54,650
and you read on the web
1603
01:23:54,684 --> 01:23:57,066
about how NASA's
covering up again,
1604
01:23:57,101 --> 01:24:00,897
as if NASA's made up of people
who are conspiracy-minded,
1605
01:24:00,932 --> 01:24:02,244
"We've got to keep this in the."
1606
01:24:02,278 --> 01:24:05,281
Well in the United
States space exploration
1607
01:24:05,316 --> 01:24:09,044
is divorce from military
uses of space, right?
1608
01:24:09,078 --> 01:24:13,600
NASA is not building equipment
to spy on other countries.
1609
01:24:13,634 --> 01:24:15,084
The Defense
Department does that,
1610
01:24:15,119 --> 01:24:16,706
they do with their
own satellites?
1611
01:24:16,741 --> 01:24:20,434
So NASA is just, it's
all about research.
1612
01:24:20,469 --> 01:24:22,091
And it's all public.
1613
01:24:22,126 --> 01:24:25,060
I mean you paid for
it, the taxpayer.
1614
01:24:25,094 --> 01:24:26,923
So it's all eventually
available to you.
1615
01:24:26,958 --> 01:24:30,237
You want to use the Hubble
Space Telescope, sure,
1616
01:24:30,272 --> 01:24:33,309
you can, you can because
your dollars paid for it
1617
01:24:33,344 --> 01:24:36,105
and that's just the way the
federal government works.
1618
01:24:36,140 --> 01:24:38,452
I worked, I mean, I had
a top secret clearance
1619
01:24:38,487 --> 01:24:40,937
when I was working for the
Office and Naval Research,
1620
01:24:40,972 --> 01:24:43,319
actually, and what
they were doing there,
1621
01:24:43,354 --> 01:24:47,427
well, yeah, it was secret
but it wasn't malevolent
1622
01:24:47,461 --> 01:24:48,669
in any sense.
1623
01:24:48,704 --> 01:24:51,327
The idea was how do
we protect our pilots,
1624
01:24:51,362 --> 01:24:54,123
Navy pilots coming in
for landings on aircraft,
1625
01:24:54,158 --> 01:24:56,021
and stuff, on flat tops.
1626
01:24:56,056 --> 01:24:57,954
- [Narrator] People
have heard of SETI,
1627
01:24:57,989 --> 01:25:01,820
and they know that SETI he
has not produced any results
1628
01:25:01,855 --> 01:25:05,100
in terms of actually confirming
1629
01:25:05,134 --> 01:25:07,171
we're not alone in the universe.
1630
01:25:07,205 --> 01:25:11,761
But what if there was
civilian scientists out there
1631
01:25:11,796 --> 01:25:16,421
that take this question
and actually probe space
1632
01:25:16,456 --> 01:25:19,700
with their own
conventional technology.
1633
01:25:19,735 --> 01:25:22,807
To find out the
answer this question,
1634
01:25:22,841 --> 01:25:27,570
I traveled to meet a
friend, Jimmy Blanchette,
1635
01:25:27,605 --> 01:25:29,158
in the middle of the desert,
1636
01:25:29,193 --> 01:25:34,025
where he had set up his
own radio telescope array
1637
01:25:34,059 --> 01:25:36,924
designed to send out messages
1638
01:25:36,959 --> 01:25:39,962
in hopes for an
intelligent response
1639
01:25:39,996 --> 01:25:44,415
coming from
extraterrestrials locally.
1640
01:25:44,449 --> 01:25:47,590
- I set up for the
Moonbounce Communication.
1641
01:25:47,625 --> 01:25:49,247
- [Darcy] Very cool, very cool.
1642
01:25:49,282 --> 01:25:51,836
So you've been sending messages
1643
01:25:53,389 --> 01:25:56,841
through radio telescope
that you've built
1644
01:25:56,875 --> 01:25:58,187
in your own backyard.
1645
01:25:59,430 --> 01:26:03,054
And those messages
reach the moon
1646
01:26:03,088 --> 01:26:05,090
and you've been getting replies.
1647
01:26:05,125 --> 01:26:07,300
- Yeah, that's right, exactly.
1648
01:26:08,577 --> 01:26:09,888
Through different interactions
1649
01:26:09,923 --> 01:26:13,651
which are literally
define a lot of physics,
1650
01:26:15,825 --> 01:26:18,173
from my experience all
the test that I've done.
1651
01:26:19,346 --> 01:26:22,246
And also not only
replies through radios
1652
01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:23,661
but also sightings, right?
1653
01:26:23,695 --> 01:26:26,181
So there's been a
lot of sightings
1654
01:26:27,941 --> 01:26:31,013
that were produced as a
result of this transmission,
1655
01:26:31,047 --> 01:26:34,292
I can show you the antenna,
let me show you the antenna.
1656
01:26:34,327 --> 01:26:38,296
So see this one has 208, has
limited 39 degrees elevation
1657
01:26:38,331 --> 01:26:41,230
so I can turn the
antenna direction,
1658
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:46,649
and you can see them outside.
1659
01:26:51,654 --> 01:26:55,244
- It's like a canon,
radio frequency canon.
1660
01:26:55,279 --> 01:26:58,351
[suspenseful music]
1661
01:27:13,780 --> 01:27:16,679
You see here, that
it is now directed
1662
01:27:16,714 --> 01:27:18,440
towards sun right now.
1663
01:27:23,514 --> 01:27:25,101
And it's like a laser beam,
1664
01:27:25,136 --> 01:27:28,415
you determine direction,
so the broadcast
1665
01:27:30,037 --> 01:27:31,556
in the direction of the target.
1666
01:27:33,869 --> 01:27:35,156
And so we're going to
make a transmission
1667
01:27:35,180 --> 01:27:36,458
towards the sun right now.
1668
01:27:37,907 --> 01:27:40,462
Using about a quarter of
a million watts of power.
1669
01:27:41,739 --> 01:27:45,190
And that's how I've
been doing the work
1670
01:27:45,225 --> 01:27:46,813
for the last few years really.
1671
01:27:48,263 --> 01:27:50,383
And you'll see some cameras
also that are set up here
1672
01:27:51,335 --> 01:27:53,820
to record the action in the sky.
1673
01:27:53,854 --> 01:27:58,618
They are covered with a material
to prevent the radiation
1674
01:27:58,652 --> 01:28:00,482
from affecting them, right?
1675
01:28:00,516 --> 01:28:04,071
Faraday bag if you will,
it's a faraday material
1676
01:28:04,106 --> 01:28:07,385
to keep the camera
from being damaged
1677
01:28:07,420 --> 01:28:10,733
by the intense radiation
that comes out of it,
1678
01:28:10,768 --> 01:28:14,289
but I do have many
recordings of sightings
1679
01:28:14,323 --> 01:28:17,464
and manifestations
taking place in the sky.
1680
01:28:17,499 --> 01:28:19,535
- UFOs.
- Yeah, yeah.
1681
01:28:19,570 --> 01:28:22,435
Doing transmissions,
and what we find
1682
01:28:22,469 --> 01:28:25,541
is that these interactions
contains information
1683
01:28:25,576 --> 01:28:29,027
that's been why
demonstrated that
1684
01:28:29,062 --> 01:28:31,858
in the several of my
latest presentations,
1685
01:28:31,892 --> 01:28:34,550
but the sightings
are pretty amazing
1686
01:28:34,585 --> 01:28:39,590
and cannot be explained
by conventional means
1687
01:28:41,005 --> 01:28:43,456
and I have many of them, have
hours of material of that.
1688
01:28:44,491 --> 01:28:47,114
[lively music]
1689
01:28:54,536 --> 01:28:57,953
[lively music continues]
1690
01:29:04,304 --> 01:29:07,687
[lively music continues]
1691
01:29:14,832 --> 01:29:18,249
[lively music continues]
1692
01:29:27,465 --> 01:29:32,228
So towards the sun now,
so we can go back inside
1693
01:29:32,263 --> 01:29:33,851
and make a transmission and see.
1694
01:29:35,197 --> 01:29:39,822
- If the sun replies.
- Well, the sun does not reply
1695
01:29:39,857 --> 01:29:41,421
but there's sometimes
they are sightings
1696
01:29:41,445 --> 01:29:43,619
during daytime as well.
- Really, okay.
1697
01:29:45,103 --> 01:29:46,874
And we've got some wolves
that have come to say hi.
1698
01:29:46,898 --> 01:29:50,246
- Yeah.
- Were these wolves?
1699
01:29:50,281 --> 01:29:53,249
Hey guys, one shot
of the camera.
1700
01:29:53,284 --> 01:29:56,287
- The different planets
might get Venus, Mars,
1701
01:29:56,321 --> 01:30:00,671
Jupiter, Saturn, we're gonna
target Jupiter right now.
1702
01:30:00,705 --> 01:30:05,365
It's 243.7 degrees 36 elevation,
1703
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:09,680
244 degrees actually, hasn't it?
1704
01:30:09,714 --> 01:30:10,714
I'm gonna.
1705
01:30:14,063 --> 01:30:16,825
- [Darcy] What message
are we picking here?
1706
01:30:16,859 --> 01:30:21,864
- We'll pick a general
message, a greeting message,
1707
01:30:23,210 --> 01:30:24,626
gratitude messages of gratitude,
1708
01:30:24,660 --> 01:30:28,906
and message to invite this
civilizations to help us out.
1709
01:30:33,393 --> 01:30:35,671
243 so that's about here.
1710
01:30:37,432 --> 01:30:38,432
There we go.
1711
01:30:42,540 --> 01:30:45,198
And you see here,
the antenna moving.
1712
01:30:45,232 --> 01:30:46,624
- [Darcy] I'll go check
it out real quick.
1713
01:30:46,648 --> 01:30:48,128
[ducks quacking]
- I can move it back
1714
01:30:50,341 --> 01:30:52,308
if you want.
- No, it's fine.
1715
01:30:52,343 --> 01:30:55,035
[ducks quacking]
1716
01:31:02,664 --> 01:31:05,667
[antenna vibrating]
1717
01:31:12,950 --> 01:31:16,781
[antenna vibrating continues]
1718
01:31:22,891 --> 01:31:26,722
[antenna vibrating continues]
1719
01:31:38,113 --> 01:31:40,771
[lively music]
1720
01:31:44,568 --> 01:31:46,915
This big antenna sits
over top of our head
1721
01:31:46,949 --> 01:31:50,988
and you've been using it
some form of this antenna
1722
01:31:51,022 --> 01:31:52,955
for many years now, right?
1723
01:31:52,990 --> 01:31:57,339
- Yes.
- When did you get into this?
1724
01:31:57,373 --> 01:32:01,239
- Well, I started, I have
been an amateur radio operator
1725
01:32:01,274 --> 01:32:04,001
since childhood for
many, many years.
1726
01:32:04,035 --> 01:32:05,658
One of my passion was
to build antennas,
1727
01:32:05,692 --> 01:32:09,593
so fast forward, I've
done essentially,
1728
01:32:09,627 --> 01:32:14,632
or practice this hobby
for many years until 2013
1729
01:32:15,599 --> 01:32:17,566
when I heard about a modality
1730
01:32:17,601 --> 01:32:19,257
called Moonbounce Communication.
1731
01:32:20,465 --> 01:32:22,502
And I had never
heard about it before
1732
01:32:22,537 --> 01:32:25,056
and that modality
consists in literally
1733
01:32:26,506 --> 01:32:28,612
using huge International
System with a lot of power
1734
01:32:28,646 --> 01:32:33,030
to bounce radio wave of
the surface of the moon.
1735
01:32:34,376 --> 01:32:37,068
And use the moon as a
passive reflector essentially
1736
01:32:37,103 --> 01:32:40,382
to establish contact
here on earth.
1737
01:32:40,416 --> 01:32:42,108
I said, this is a
great challenge.
1738
01:32:42,142 --> 01:32:45,249
So I wanted to, technically,
I love technical stuff.
1739
01:32:45,283 --> 01:32:48,079
So I wanted to get into it.
1740
01:32:48,114 --> 01:32:50,737
So I started building
my own antenna system
1741
01:32:50,772 --> 01:32:53,360
and getting the whole equipment
that was needed to do this.
1742
01:32:53,395 --> 01:32:57,848
I did that, and I built an
antenna, and a radio station.
1743
01:32:57,882 --> 01:33:00,609
And in 2013, I had
my first contact
1744
01:33:00,644 --> 01:33:03,819
with essentially via
Moonbounce Communication.
1745
01:33:03,854 --> 01:33:06,201
So from there, I kept
improving the system
1746
01:33:06,235 --> 01:33:08,721
and kept building bigger,
and bigger antenna
1747
01:33:08,755 --> 01:33:12,000
with more power, up until 2016
1748
01:33:12,034 --> 01:33:17,039
when I got a myriad
of three antennas
1749
01:33:17,764 --> 01:33:19,317
that was pretty big.
1750
01:33:19,352 --> 01:33:21,078
It was very unique
and it's not this one,
1751
01:33:21,112 --> 01:33:24,253
but it was using some of
the same antenna system.
1752
01:33:24,288 --> 01:33:29,293
And I wrote articles about
it, scientific article
1753
01:33:30,432 --> 01:33:31,191
about the system
which was published
1754
01:33:31,226 --> 01:33:32,641
in a magazine in Europe.
1755
01:33:32,676 --> 01:33:36,231
It was a unique triangular
configuration of antenna system.
1756
01:33:36,265 --> 01:33:38,336
And so I kept going
doing Moonbounce,
1757
01:33:38,371 --> 01:33:41,616
but then I had a really
powerful radio station by then.
1758
01:33:41,650 --> 01:33:44,619
So 2017 I fast forward,
1759
01:33:46,068 --> 01:33:50,659
I heard about what people call
C5 or human initiated contact
1760
01:33:52,627 --> 01:33:55,457
and I was always
felt attracted by.
1761
01:33:55,491 --> 01:33:59,599
- Which involves meditation?
- Which involves meditation
1762
01:33:59,634 --> 01:34:01,946
of different modalities really,
1763
01:34:01,981 --> 01:34:03,879
but a lot of it is
about meditation
1764
01:34:03,914 --> 01:34:07,538
and people use consciousness
to connect with civilizations.
1765
01:34:07,572 --> 01:34:10,817
But there's also, some
people use also small radios
1766
01:34:10,852 --> 01:34:13,682
and there's some technology
that's out there.
1767
01:34:13,717 --> 01:34:17,582
Anyway, I had seen many,
or watch some videos
1768
01:34:17,617 --> 01:34:19,964
on the internet about
people making contact
1769
01:34:19,999 --> 01:34:21,483
and it was pretty impressive.
1770
01:34:21,517 --> 01:34:24,900
So I was intrigued, since I
had all this large equipment,
1771
01:34:24,935 --> 01:34:26,108
this radio station.
1772
01:34:26,143 --> 01:34:28,559
I said, "Why not using
this radio station
1773
01:34:28,593 --> 01:34:32,494
to send a message out there,
to try to make contact?"
1774
01:34:32,528 --> 01:34:34,634
And so that's what I
did, I created my own
1775
01:34:36,532 --> 01:34:37,948
very cool message, yes.
- With this?
1776
01:34:37,982 --> 01:34:40,191
Yeah.
- You getting radio chatter
1777
01:34:40,226 --> 01:34:43,574
there because you sent a
message earlier and it.
1778
01:34:43,608 --> 01:34:47,336
- Yes, before we had this,
minutes ago Darcy and I,
1779
01:34:47,371 --> 01:34:49,994
we broadcasted the
message towards the sun
1780
01:34:50,029 --> 01:34:53,480
using a quarter of a million
watts, with a message.
1781
01:34:53,515 --> 01:34:55,793
And so, we'll talk
about it in a minute.
1782
01:34:55,828 --> 01:34:58,900
But yeah, there's often
interaction charters
1783
01:34:58,934 --> 01:34:59,934
that comes back.
1784
01:35:03,905 --> 01:35:06,839
[radios vibrating]
1785
01:35:13,466 --> 01:35:17,228
[radios vibrating continues]
1786
01:35:23,269 --> 01:35:27,031
[radios vibrating continues]
1787
01:35:34,383 --> 01:35:36,282
- What you're doing,
how does that differ
1788
01:35:36,316 --> 01:35:40,320
from what SETI
does, for example?
1789
01:35:40,355 --> 01:35:44,014
- From what I know from SETI,
not an expert with SETI,
1790
01:35:44,048 --> 01:35:46,361
what I know is that they owe
more in the receiving mode,
1791
01:35:46,395 --> 01:35:51,400
they have giant radio telescopes
or dishes, if you will.
1792
01:35:52,263 --> 01:35:53,506
And the reason, by the way,
1793
01:35:53,540 --> 01:35:55,542
why I'm not using these
kind of satellite dishes
1794
01:35:55,577 --> 01:35:58,545
the dishes right,
the parabolic dishes,
1795
01:35:58,580 --> 01:35:59,995
it's all about frequencies.
1796
01:36:00,030 --> 01:36:03,343
When you go in the gigahertz,
in a frequency gigahertz,
1797
01:36:03,378 --> 01:36:07,382
it's more desirable to
have this parabolic dishes.
1798
01:36:07,416 --> 01:36:09,694
When you go and
lower frequencies,
1799
01:36:09,729 --> 01:36:11,869
then you use these kind
of we call Yagi-Uda,
1800
01:36:11,904 --> 01:36:14,113
directional Yagi antennas.
1801
01:36:14,147 --> 01:36:15,435
But they all more
in a receiving mode,
1802
01:36:15,459 --> 01:36:17,195
form what I understand,
so they pick the target,
1803
01:36:17,219 --> 01:36:21,465
and they listen, and they
look for an intelligent reply,
1804
01:36:21,499 --> 01:36:24,330
or intelligence response,
or something that-
1805
01:36:24,364 --> 01:36:26,884
- Light years away.
- Light years away.
1806
01:36:26,919 --> 01:36:28,437
What I'm doing is different.
1807
01:36:28,472 --> 01:36:32,994
I am actually broadcasting
messages of various kind,
1808
01:36:35,306 --> 01:36:36,825
where I'm inviting
the intelligence
1809
01:36:36,860 --> 01:36:38,275
to manifest their presence.
1810
01:36:40,311 --> 01:36:45,006
And essentially, and
I'm targeting planets
1811
01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:48,147
in our solar system, targeting
the sun, targeting the moon.
1812
01:36:48,181 --> 01:36:51,944
And from, I mean, the
evidence is overwhelming now
1813
01:36:51,978 --> 01:36:53,842
that there's a
presence out there
1814
01:36:53,877 --> 01:36:55,844
that's been interacting
with humanity.
1815
01:36:55,879 --> 01:36:57,846
And now it's even
the government admits
1816
01:36:57,881 --> 01:37:02,126
that you look at the TikTok
video and Nimitz, right?
1817
01:37:02,161 --> 01:37:03,852
I mean, they're all here,
1818
01:37:03,887 --> 01:37:05,233
they're not very far, right?
1819
01:37:05,267 --> 01:37:08,408
And so the power I have
here is more than enough
1820
01:37:08,443 --> 01:37:11,135
to cover the solar
system, and far beyond,
1821
01:37:11,170 --> 01:37:13,344
but certainly the
intelligence out there,
1822
01:37:13,379 --> 01:37:14,898
they're gonna pick
up that signal.
1823
01:37:14,932 --> 01:37:16,082
So they're here,
they're not very far.
1824
01:37:16,106 --> 01:37:19,247
We don't need to
have large equipment,
1825
01:37:20,282 --> 01:37:22,698
very powerful equipment
to reach them.
1826
01:37:24,010 --> 01:37:27,151
Even a simple and
handheld radio like this.
1827
01:37:27,186 --> 01:37:30,603
I mean, if you look
just a satellite at all,
1828
01:37:30,637 --> 01:37:34,296
around the earth, they broadcast
with milliwatts of power,
1829
01:37:34,331 --> 01:37:37,679
fractions of watts.
- To deliver you TV.
1830
01:37:37,713 --> 01:37:40,371
- Deliver TV, and
communication, and GPS,
1831
01:37:40,406 --> 01:37:42,718
and all that in the
fractions of watts.
1832
01:37:42,753 --> 01:37:45,687
Even a handheld radio with
4 to 8 watts like this,
1833
01:37:45,721 --> 01:37:47,965
the signal will go far beyond
1834
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,830
the International Space Station
will actually reach the moon
1835
01:37:50,865 --> 01:37:53,453
and I can demonstrate
that technically.
1836
01:37:53,488 --> 01:37:56,180
So they are here, we don't
need a lot of equipment,
1837
01:37:56,215 --> 01:37:58,389
it doesn't take a lot for humans
1838
01:37:58,424 --> 01:38:00,667
to get their voice
heard in space.
1839
01:38:00,702 --> 01:38:03,187
- Do you have any
suspicions that maybe
1840
01:38:04,257 --> 01:38:05,914
some of these messages
might be human
1841
01:38:05,949 --> 01:38:07,398
that are coming back to you,
1842
01:38:07,433 --> 01:38:09,884
like people that are just
messing with you at all,
1843
01:38:09,918 --> 01:38:11,678
or something like that?
1844
01:38:11,713 --> 01:38:13,577
- Well, I want to mention here
1845
01:38:13,611 --> 01:38:18,306
that in 2017 after
I started this work,
1846
01:38:19,445 --> 01:38:21,343
I shared this work with
other experiencers.
1847
01:38:21,378 --> 01:38:24,415
And so this contact modality
if we want to call it this way,
1848
01:38:24,450 --> 01:38:29,455
has been now utilized
worldwide by dozens of people.
1849
01:38:30,318 --> 01:38:31,767
People were doing contact work,
1850
01:38:31,802 --> 01:38:33,469
and they've had all the very
successful experiences,
1851
01:38:33,493 --> 01:38:34,954
and they've shared
their footage with me
1852
01:38:34,978 --> 01:38:37,808
of sightings in the sky and
directions for the radios.
1853
01:38:39,741 --> 01:38:41,743
And so these, again,
these interactions
1854
01:38:41,777 --> 01:38:44,608
that are happening now after
our broadcaster with the sun.
1855
01:38:45,540 --> 01:38:48,784
And so it's not only me now,
1856
01:38:48,819 --> 01:38:50,959
it's been done now
by many other folks
1857
01:38:50,994 --> 01:38:53,065
who were using this
contact modality worldwide.
1858
01:38:53,099 --> 01:38:55,550
So if somebody is
messing with me,
1859
01:38:55,584 --> 01:38:57,793
well, they're messing with
people in Australia too,
1860
01:38:57,828 --> 01:38:58,967
and New Zealand, right?
1861
01:38:59,002 --> 01:39:00,417
It's it's all over the place.
1862
01:39:01,797 --> 01:39:04,524
And again, I have done
many tests, technical tests
1863
01:39:04,559 --> 01:39:06,250
to demonstrate that
these interactions,
1864
01:39:06,285 --> 01:39:08,977
or if we look at
the radio as well,
1865
01:39:09,012 --> 01:39:10,634
it's a different
type of interaction.
1866
01:39:10,668 --> 01:39:14,189
It's not regular radio waves
that they're sending back away.
1867
01:39:14,224 --> 01:39:15,673
It's some other form of energy.
1868
01:39:15,708 --> 01:39:19,367
- You said you put a radio
inside of a microwave,
1869
01:39:19,401 --> 01:39:23,267
which is a perfect Faraday cage.
1870
01:39:23,302 --> 01:39:24,820
- Yes, that's right.
1871
01:39:24,855 --> 01:39:28,617
So, if we have let's say,
and I have videos of that,
1872
01:39:28,652 --> 01:39:31,241
you put three
radios for instance,
1873
01:39:31,275 --> 01:39:32,828
set to the same frequency,
1874
01:39:32,863 --> 01:39:36,211
one next to which are identical
radios, like we have here.
1875
01:39:36,246 --> 01:39:38,765
And the intelligence
would be able to trigger
1876
01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:41,837
only one of them, and
typically they will trigger
1877
01:39:41,872 --> 01:39:45,358
the one that you've used
to transmit the message,
1878
01:39:45,393 --> 01:39:47,026
which is impossible
because if it will be
1879
01:39:47,050 --> 01:39:49,569
a regular radio
waves all the radios
1880
01:39:49,604 --> 01:39:51,399
should be going off at
the same time, right?
1881
01:39:51,433 --> 01:39:53,332
If you on a FM radio
- On that channel.
1882
01:39:53,366 --> 01:39:54,574
- On that channel, yeah.
1883
01:39:55,679 --> 01:39:57,577
Again putting the
radios in Faraday cage,
1884
01:39:57,612 --> 01:39:59,614
the interactions still happens.
1885
01:40:01,029 --> 01:40:03,756
So putting the radio
in a faraday cage.
1886
01:40:05,620 --> 01:40:06,897
This is a microwave.
1887
01:40:08,071 --> 01:40:10,832
And the interaction
is still ongoing.
1888
01:40:10,866 --> 01:40:13,145
Despite the fact that
the radio is contained
1889
01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:18,529
in a faraday cage which
does not let any radio waves
1890
01:40:18,564 --> 01:40:20,186
going in or out.
1891
01:40:21,774 --> 01:40:24,328
Even though it's
contained in these cage,
1892
01:40:24,363 --> 01:40:27,435
or not letting radio
wave in or out.
1893
01:40:27,469 --> 01:40:29,540
So there are many
signs like that,
1894
01:40:29,575 --> 01:40:33,165
that it's not natural,
and that's beyond
1895
01:40:33,199 --> 01:40:35,581
all of technology that
we can't really explain,
1896
01:40:35,615 --> 01:40:37,962
but it's clearly there.
1897
01:40:37,997 --> 01:40:41,173
And these interactions, if
we get on the radio also,
1898
01:40:41,207 --> 01:40:44,590
or often combined with
sightings in the sky,
1899
01:40:45,867 --> 01:40:46,982
amazing sightings in the sky.
1900
01:40:47,006 --> 01:40:50,630
So that's all
experience really that,
1901
01:40:50,665 --> 01:40:53,840
and while I advice people
who are interested,
1902
01:40:55,083 --> 01:40:56,809
serious people, is
to just go try it.
1903
01:40:56,843 --> 01:40:58,224
It's available to anyone,
1904
01:40:58,259 --> 01:41:01,814
it's not unique to me or
a few other experiences.
1905
01:41:01,848 --> 01:41:03,298
It's available to anyone.
1906
01:41:03,333 --> 01:41:06,267
I believe, truly believe it's
part of the great awakening.
1907
01:41:06,301 --> 01:41:09,615
It's happening, if awakening
of what's out there,
1908
01:41:09,649 --> 01:41:11,789
and what's possible to do.
1909
01:41:11,824 --> 01:41:14,654
Clearly I'm convinced they
know way, way, way, way more
1910
01:41:14,689 --> 01:41:17,830
than what they tell us.
- NASA.
1911
01:41:17,864 --> 01:41:18,658
- NASA, yeah.
1912
01:41:18,693 --> 01:41:19,693
They know way more.
1913
01:41:22,455 --> 01:41:25,493
I tend to try not even to get
1914
01:41:25,527 --> 01:41:29,566
too much into this politics
of what these things,
1915
01:41:29,600 --> 01:41:32,672
clearly they've known
this for decades,
1916
01:41:32,707 --> 01:41:34,467
government knows
this, NASA knows this
1917
01:41:34,502 --> 01:41:39,127
and the public has been
driven in the wrong direction
1918
01:41:39,162 --> 01:41:41,612
and to look in the
wrong direction on this.
1919
01:41:41,647 --> 01:41:44,719
Again, just what I mentioned
earlier is very simple,
1920
01:41:44,753 --> 01:41:48,999
a simple principle that
a few watts of power
1921
01:41:49,033 --> 01:41:51,001
will go very far in space,
1922
01:41:51,035 --> 01:41:54,073
far deeper than the
International Space Stations.
1923
01:41:54,108 --> 01:41:56,869
Meaning that we can get our
voice heard in space easily.
1924
01:41:58,595 --> 01:42:00,114
I don't think people know that.
1925
01:42:02,116 --> 01:42:04,048
- [Darcy] There are
many competing theories
1926
01:42:04,083 --> 01:42:07,224
in regards to what
is happening lately
1927
01:42:07,259 --> 01:42:09,295
within Congress legally,
1928
01:42:09,330 --> 01:42:14,335
to address UAP or UFO
phenomenon in our skies.
1929
01:42:15,543 --> 01:42:18,442
One person comes to
mind, above others,
1930
01:42:18,477 --> 01:42:22,205
that can decipher laws
and actions in Congress
1931
01:42:22,239 --> 01:42:24,172
regarding this issue.
1932
01:42:24,207 --> 01:42:27,037
So in my quest to
uncover the truth,
1933
01:42:27,071 --> 01:42:30,005
I embarked on a mystical journey
1934
01:42:30,040 --> 01:42:34,562
to the land of crystals and
alternative health remedies,
1935
01:42:34,596 --> 01:42:39,014
to find my friend Steven
Bassett, a political activist
1936
01:42:39,049 --> 01:42:43,433
and official lobbyist on
Capitol Hill for disclosure,
1937
01:42:43,467 --> 01:42:46,850
calling for the end
of the truth embargo.
1938
01:42:46,884 --> 01:42:49,542
[lively music]
1939
01:42:51,786 --> 01:42:54,616
- We've seen an explosion
of media coverage,
1940
01:42:54,651 --> 01:42:57,343
I've logged in over 5000
articles for mainstream media,
1941
01:42:57,378 --> 01:43:02,279
scores, and scores of briefings
were conducted on private
1942
01:43:03,798 --> 01:43:05,396
of members of Congress
orchestrated by
Christopher Melon,
1943
01:43:05,420 --> 01:43:06,663
bringing witnesses up,
1944
01:43:06,697 --> 01:43:09,493
and allowing some of the
members to talk to them
1945
01:43:09,528 --> 01:43:12,427
and getting them up to
speed as it were, all right?
1946
01:43:12,462 --> 01:43:15,085
This went on for
probably two years.
1947
01:43:15,119 --> 01:43:18,019
And the result of that,
meaning these members
1948
01:43:18,053 --> 01:43:20,021
of key committees like
the Intel committees,
1949
01:43:20,055 --> 01:43:21,643
The Armed Services committees,
1950
01:43:21,678 --> 01:43:24,267
was that they became
comfortable with the idea
1951
01:43:24,301 --> 01:43:26,061
of let's do some legislation.
1952
01:43:26,096 --> 01:43:29,410
And the first legislation
which was initiated in 2021,
1953
01:43:29,444 --> 01:43:34,449
past in 2022, in the National
Defense Authorization Act 2022
1954
01:43:35,312 --> 01:43:37,349
was put in by Senator Warner.
1955
01:43:37,383 --> 01:43:39,558
That legislation was
very significant.
1956
01:43:39,592 --> 01:43:41,076
It's set up some initial things
1957
01:43:41,111 --> 01:43:44,148
over at the DOD, ask for
certain things to happen,
1958
01:43:44,183 --> 01:43:46,023
people were a little
skeptical, but nevertheless,
1959
01:43:46,047 --> 01:43:47,600
it was a major milestone.
1960
01:43:49,084 --> 01:43:52,018
You had an enormous amount
of press coverage of that.
1961
01:43:52,053 --> 01:43:54,193
And then the House stepped in,
1962
01:43:54,228 --> 01:43:57,921
you had Ruben Gallego put some
language in the next bill,
1963
01:43:57,955 --> 01:44:01,027
Andre Carson called
for a hearing
1964
01:44:01,062 --> 01:44:02,443
for the DOD to come forward,
1965
01:44:02,477 --> 01:44:03,996
at least tell what's going on.
1966
01:44:04,030 --> 01:44:07,620
It was very basic, but the
first hearing since 1968.
1967
01:44:09,346 --> 01:44:11,969
I think more private
briefings took place
1968
01:44:12,004 --> 01:44:17,009
and resulting in a new
round of legislation,
1969
01:44:18,148 --> 01:44:21,738
which was put in the
2023 Bill House Senate.
1970
01:44:21,772 --> 01:44:24,016
And we watched that evolve,
we watched the two Bills
1971
01:44:24,050 --> 01:44:25,338
working through the
House in the Senate,
1972
01:44:25,362 --> 01:44:27,088
was extraordinary language,
1973
01:44:27,122 --> 01:44:28,883
wondering how it would come out,
1974
01:44:28,917 --> 01:44:32,162
ultimately was reconciled
and that Bill was passed
1975
01:44:32,196 --> 01:44:33,577
on December 23.
1976
01:44:33,612 --> 01:44:36,062
As far as I'm
concerned that Bill,
1977
01:44:36,097 --> 01:44:38,099
which you can
easily find online,
1978
01:44:38,133 --> 01:44:42,103
it's the FY23 NDAA Bill.
1979
01:44:42,137 --> 01:44:45,037
I think it's Bill number 7776,
1980
01:44:45,071 --> 01:44:46,970
the language in it,
which you can easily find
1981
01:44:47,004 --> 01:44:52,009
by word searching
unidentified, is astounding.
1982
01:44:52,872 --> 01:44:54,218
There's a cross agency committee
1983
01:44:54,253 --> 01:44:57,291
being created as instructed
by the legislation
1984
01:44:57,325 --> 01:44:58,740
in the Department of Defense
1985
01:44:58,775 --> 01:45:02,261
across 16 or 17
different entities.
1986
01:45:02,296 --> 01:45:04,919
Cross agency meaning there
will be people assigned
1987
01:45:04,953 --> 01:45:08,716
to this across these agencies,
not their full-time job,
1988
01:45:08,750 --> 01:45:11,995
they have a job, but then this
will be part of their duties.
1989
01:45:12,029 --> 01:45:15,067
That's how you bring lots of
people together across agency.
1990
01:45:15,101 --> 01:45:17,794
It could end up with several
thousand people involved.
1991
01:45:17,828 --> 01:45:20,762
Here are some of the
most extraordinary
things in the Bill,
1992
01:45:20,797 --> 01:45:23,696
one of the most extraordinary
is that this legislation
1993
01:45:23,731 --> 01:45:28,736
calls for the now finally
named office, or this program.
1994
01:45:30,945 --> 01:45:35,950
It is the All-Domain
Anomaly Resolution Office,
1995
01:45:37,400 --> 01:45:41,818
which is not bad, but then
acronym AARO, that's good.
1996
01:45:41,852 --> 01:45:44,165
The other ones they came
up with were ridiculous.
1997
01:45:44,199 --> 01:45:47,202
And so AARO, all
right, that's set up.
1998
01:45:47,237 --> 01:45:52,242
We know that recently
several of the key witnesses
1999
01:45:53,381 --> 01:45:54,831
some of the most
important witnesses
2000
01:45:54,865 --> 01:45:58,075
we will see testify before
the Senate Intel committee,
2001
01:45:58,110 --> 01:46:02,114
by that I mean the nuclear
weapons tampering witnesses.
2002
01:46:02,148 --> 01:46:05,289
These are fact-base
command captains
2003
01:46:05,324 --> 01:46:08,258
who were present
when craft came down,
2004
01:46:08,292 --> 01:46:09,856
hovered over the base,
turned off the weapons,
2005
01:46:09,880 --> 01:46:11,192
this happened many times.
2006
01:46:11,226 --> 01:46:12,435
Something that The Pentagon
2007
01:46:12,469 --> 01:46:14,471
and the president
stayed away from,
2008
01:46:14,506 --> 01:46:17,819
they can't undermine it,
so they just ignore it.
2009
01:46:17,854 --> 01:46:19,994
But now they're
getting attention.
2010
01:46:20,028 --> 01:46:21,927
They have been
contacted to come in
2011
01:46:21,961 --> 01:46:24,067
and be interviewed by AARO.
2012
01:46:24,101 --> 01:46:25,413
Why is this important?
2013
01:46:25,448 --> 01:46:27,691
The only reason you
interview witnesses like that
2014
01:46:27,726 --> 01:46:30,729
is to prepare them for
Congressional briefing.
2015
01:46:30,763 --> 01:46:32,593
One of the things that's
really significant
2016
01:46:32,627 --> 01:46:35,492
in this legislation, again,
this is unprecedented stuff,
2017
01:46:35,527 --> 01:46:37,667
nothing like it even
remotely has happened,
2018
01:46:37,701 --> 01:46:41,325
is requiring that
all of the entities
2019
01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:44,087
that could have intersected
with this issue, right?
2020
01:46:44,121 --> 01:46:45,813
Which is basically
all the entities
2021
01:46:45,847 --> 01:46:47,504
in the cross agency committee.
2022
01:46:47,539 --> 01:46:51,577
Need to supply copies of all
the non-disclosure agreements
2023
01:46:51,612 --> 01:46:55,236
that are in their files
relating to this issue.
2024
01:46:55,270 --> 01:46:57,963
If somebody was put under
a non-disclosure agreement
2025
01:46:57,997 --> 01:47:00,068
either current or expired,
2026
01:47:00,103 --> 01:47:03,589
they want to copy of that
agreement to be sent to AARO.
2027
01:47:04,487 --> 01:47:05,936
So what does that mean?
2028
01:47:05,971 --> 01:47:07,776
It means they're going to get
a huge amount of information
2029
01:47:07,800 --> 01:47:09,871
about things that
were people were asked
2030
01:47:09,906 --> 01:47:11,597
to go under non-disclosure,
2031
01:47:11,632 --> 01:47:14,635
not all of these non-disclosure
agreements are specific
2032
01:47:14,669 --> 01:47:15,912
but a lot of them are,
2033
01:47:15,946 --> 01:47:17,879
and they also find
out who was asked
2034
01:47:17,914 --> 01:47:19,398
to be under non-disclosure.
2035
01:47:19,433 --> 01:47:22,470
Now, this is to AARO, it's
still classified in a sense,
2036
01:47:22,505 --> 01:47:23,471
it's not to the public.
2037
01:47:23,506 --> 01:47:25,473
But the Bill also states
2038
01:47:25,508 --> 01:47:28,303
that once AARO has these
non-disclosure agreements,
2039
01:47:28,338 --> 01:47:30,823
or as they get them, and
there's a lot of them,
2040
01:47:30,858 --> 01:47:33,688
they will provide them
to the appropriate
2041
01:47:33,723 --> 01:47:34,931
congressional committees.
2042
01:47:34,965 --> 01:47:38,900
Now they have them,
this is extraordinary,
2043
01:47:38,935 --> 01:47:41,593
as the congressional
committees try to decide
2044
01:47:41,627 --> 01:47:43,077
how to move forward
with hearings.
2045
01:47:43,111 --> 01:47:45,286
In other words,
everything is going
2046
01:47:45,320 --> 01:47:48,392
exactly as you would expect
if we're heading for hearings
2047
01:47:48,427 --> 01:47:50,464
and that's an
extraordinary thing.
2048
01:47:50,498 --> 01:47:53,294
Another extraordinary thing
that they put in this Bill,
2049
01:47:53,328 --> 01:47:55,158
which just blew my mind.
2050
01:47:55,192 --> 01:47:57,919
And then it goes on to say,
okay, but if it is authorized
2051
01:47:57,954 --> 01:48:00,094
meaning it doesn't violate that,
2052
01:48:00,128 --> 01:48:02,406
and so you're preventing
authorized information,
2053
01:48:02,441 --> 01:48:03,856
could be to your commander,
2054
01:48:03,891 --> 01:48:05,237
it could be a
member of Congress,
2055
01:48:05,271 --> 01:48:08,102
whoever within the government,
within the program.
2056
01:48:09,483 --> 01:48:14,488
And anyone in Congress,
or in your department,
2057
01:48:15,558 --> 01:48:17,078
or agency, or a boss,
or anybody else,
2058
01:48:18,353 --> 01:48:21,184
pushes back with any
kind of retribution,
2059
01:48:21,218 --> 01:48:24,256
or threats, or anything
else, classic example
2060
01:48:24,290 --> 01:48:27,121
is you say anything more
about that commander
2061
01:48:27,155 --> 01:48:29,641
and you'll lose your
flight privileges.
2062
01:48:29,675 --> 01:48:31,988
That is no longer permitted.
2063
01:48:32,022 --> 01:48:33,852
It is-
- The threat is off the table.
2064
01:48:33,886 --> 01:48:35,819
- Essentially, that's
what they're saying, Okay?
2065
01:48:35,854 --> 01:48:39,651
And what that does, why are
they doing it, by the way,
2066
01:48:39,685 --> 01:48:41,549
they're only referring
to statements
2067
01:48:41,584 --> 01:48:43,240
that are going to be internal,
2068
01:48:43,275 --> 01:48:45,553
not to the media,
or to whatever.
2069
01:48:45,588 --> 01:48:48,314
No, no, you can't do that
anyway, at least not now,
2070
01:48:48,349 --> 01:48:51,663
but internally, they're freeing
up the communication lines
2071
01:48:51,697 --> 01:48:54,942
to make it easier for
witnesses not whistle blowers,
2072
01:48:54,976 --> 01:48:57,703
that's not what they are,
and some people disagree,
2073
01:48:57,738 --> 01:48:59,947
to come forward,
say, "Okay, look
2074
01:48:59,981 --> 01:49:01,880
I know about this,
I know about that,
2075
01:49:01,914 --> 01:49:04,365
I understand that you're
gathering this information
2076
01:49:04,399 --> 01:49:06,574
and I like to
provide this, okay?"
2077
01:49:06,609 --> 01:49:08,058
They're freeing it up, why?
2078
01:49:08,093 --> 01:49:12,131
Because if you're going to
have really important hearings
2079
01:49:12,166 --> 01:49:15,618
you can't have a very
significant witness
2080
01:49:15,652 --> 01:49:18,344
unless you know who they are,
unless they come forward,
2081
01:49:18,379 --> 01:49:19,598
they're never going to
be in the committee.
2082
01:49:19,622 --> 01:49:21,865
So that's preparation
for hearings.
2083
01:49:21,900 --> 01:49:24,903
Other members of the United
States Senate and House
2084
01:49:24,937 --> 01:49:27,112
are learning that
this information
2085
01:49:27,146 --> 01:49:30,149
is being collected by
these other members,
2086
01:49:30,184 --> 01:49:31,806
and they would like to know.
2087
01:49:31,841 --> 01:49:33,325
And what one way or another,
2088
01:49:33,359 --> 01:49:34,706
they're getting bits and pieces,
2089
01:49:34,740 --> 01:49:36,397
and they're realizing, "Oh wow."
2090
01:49:36,431 --> 01:49:40,297
And they're thinking,
"I'm a member of Congress,
2091
01:49:40,332 --> 01:49:42,506
I like to be able
to speak to this,
2092
01:49:42,541 --> 01:49:44,060
I'm not getting briefed."
2093
01:49:44,094 --> 01:49:45,889
And so what they're
doing is on their own
2094
01:49:45,924 --> 01:49:48,512
they're coming forward and
getting into the issue.
2095
01:49:48,547 --> 01:49:49,997
And there's been
several of these,
2096
01:49:50,031 --> 01:49:54,277
but the one that intrigues
me the most is Tim Burchett
2097
01:49:54,311 --> 01:49:56,003
who has some
committee assignments,
2098
01:49:56,037 --> 01:49:57,521
they're not insignificant,
2099
01:49:57,556 --> 01:49:59,534
but they're not the ones
that are getting briefed,
2100
01:49:59,558 --> 01:50:01,836
I think by the DOD.
2101
01:50:01,871 --> 01:50:05,806
And so he has taking on
himself to come forward
2102
01:50:05,840 --> 01:50:09,050
in multiple venues,
including on Fox News,
2103
01:50:09,085 --> 01:50:11,708
saying matter of fact there's
extra-terrestrials here.
2104
01:50:11,743 --> 01:50:15,781
These are non-human craft,
that wasn't happening before.
2105
01:50:15,816 --> 01:50:18,266
And recently another member
of Congress did that.
2106
01:50:18,301 --> 01:50:19,820
Well, this is going to continue.
2107
01:50:19,854 --> 01:50:21,349
To the members that
have come forward,
2108
01:50:21,373 --> 01:50:25,273
or put legislation out
like Rubio, Warren,
2109
01:50:25,308 --> 01:50:30,313
Diego, Carson,
Gillibrand, Mike Gallagher
2110
01:50:32,073 --> 01:50:33,627
who spoke up at the hearing.
2111
01:50:33,661 --> 01:50:35,732
To my knowledge and I'm
paying close attention,
2112
01:50:35,767 --> 01:50:37,631
not a single one of
these politicians
2113
01:50:37,665 --> 01:50:41,876
is taking any blow back,
no political loss at all.
2114
01:50:41,911 --> 01:50:45,673
In other words, people are
going "Great, wow, that's cool."
2115
01:50:45,708 --> 01:50:49,712
One of the reasons is this is
a truly non-partisan issue.
2116
01:50:49,746 --> 01:50:51,265
The United States government,
2117
01:50:52,473 --> 01:50:54,682
in both Congressional areas,
2118
01:50:54,717 --> 01:50:56,339
as well as the
Department of Defense,
2119
01:50:56,373 --> 01:50:58,237
as well as the
military services,
2120
01:50:58,272 --> 01:51:00,067
as well as defense contractors,
2121
01:51:00,101 --> 01:51:03,311
there're people in all of those
entities with need to know,
2122
01:51:04,243 --> 01:51:06,625
and their predecessors, okay,
2123
01:51:06,660 --> 01:51:09,214
that have known about the
extraterrestrial presence
2124
01:51:09,248 --> 01:51:14,253
since at least 1947 and
perhaps 1945, they've known.
2125
01:51:15,358 --> 01:51:16,749
It's not the government
is just learning,
2126
01:51:16,773 --> 01:51:18,820
"Oh, there's something there,
we should do something."
2127
01:51:18,844 --> 01:51:21,019
Oh, no, no, they've
known all along.
2128
01:51:21,053 --> 01:51:24,367
All right, okay fine, that
doesn't mean everybody, no.
2129
01:51:24,401 --> 01:51:26,507
But is the government,
yeah absolutely.
2130
01:51:26,541 --> 01:51:29,372
Enough people that it's
clearly being dealt with
2131
01:51:29,406 --> 01:51:30,822
and they understand it.
2132
01:51:30,856 --> 01:51:32,523
- [Darcy] And NASA is
really well connected too.
2133
01:51:32,547 --> 01:51:33,445
- Oh and NASA too.
2134
01:51:33,479 --> 01:51:34,688
Oh, absolutely NASA.
2135
01:51:34,722 --> 01:51:36,310
There are people
in NASA all along,
2136
01:51:37,725 --> 01:51:39,082
certainly at the highest
level like the administrator
2137
01:51:39,106 --> 01:51:40,970
were like, "No, the
ET presence is real."
2138
01:51:41,004 --> 01:51:42,661
Okay, but there's
a truth embargo
2139
01:51:42,696 --> 01:51:44,283
as I've stated million times,
2140
01:51:44,318 --> 01:51:47,045
and that embargo says that
this is not going to be
2141
01:51:47,079 --> 01:51:48,667
confirmed to the
American people.
2142
01:51:48,702 --> 01:51:53,672
Okay, so now they have been
gaming this outcome for years.
2143
01:51:57,262 --> 01:51:59,747
The Pentagon has supercomputers
2144
01:51:59,782 --> 01:52:01,473
that manage other
supercomputers.
2145
01:52:01,507 --> 01:52:03,682
They game everything,
everybody knows this, right?
2146
01:52:03,717 --> 01:52:04,925
War games all that stuff.
2147
01:52:04,959 --> 01:52:08,307
And so they have been
predicting and gaming
2148
01:52:08,342 --> 01:52:09,757
how this could work.
2149
01:52:09,792 --> 01:52:12,415
That's a very complex
thing, all right?
2150
01:52:12,449 --> 01:52:17,454
And I happen to know
that in early 1990s
2151
01:52:18,662 --> 01:52:22,425
The Pentagon submitted
a substantial contract
2152
01:52:22,459 --> 01:52:25,704
to a major public relations
firm in Washington
2153
01:52:25,739 --> 01:52:26,878
called Hill + Knowlton,
2154
01:52:26,912 --> 01:52:29,501
and it was, your
public relations firm,
2155
01:52:29,535 --> 01:52:34,057
we want you to analyze all of
the public relations aspects
2156
01:52:34,092 --> 01:52:36,311
of how we can get to telling
and confirming to the people
2157
01:52:36,335 --> 01:52:38,717
the ET presence disclosure.
2158
01:52:38,752 --> 01:52:41,755
Then we want you to
also look and analyze
2159
01:52:41,789 --> 01:52:43,860
the public relations
issues we face
2160
01:52:43,895 --> 01:52:47,139
after we've confirmed
the ET presence.
2161
01:52:47,174 --> 01:52:49,590
And they got this report
back in a number of years,
2162
01:52:49,624 --> 01:52:51,074
cost millions of dollars.
2163
01:52:51,109 --> 01:52:53,052
They've been sitting on us of
20 years, that's just that.
2164
01:52:53,076 --> 01:52:55,976
So it's not like they're just
suddenly shocked here, okay?
2165
01:52:57,011 --> 01:52:59,151
And the outcome of that is this,
2166
01:53:00,359 --> 01:53:02,983
what they're doing
is going through
2167
01:53:03,017 --> 01:53:08,022
an appropriate, relatively
transparent process
2168
01:53:09,437 --> 01:53:12,647
leading to disclosure that
involves the proper entities,
2169
01:53:12,682 --> 01:53:15,789
the Congress the
DOD, legislation,
2170
01:53:15,823 --> 01:53:17,480
and all the things
they should have done
2171
01:53:17,514 --> 01:53:22,209
in all those previous
opportunities to
correct the record,
2172
01:53:22,243 --> 01:53:25,005
to finally end this embargo.
2173
01:53:25,039 --> 01:53:26,972
Not to start
investigating the issue,
2174
01:53:27,007 --> 01:53:29,181
they've never stopped
investigating the issue.
2175
01:53:29,216 --> 01:53:32,081
And you might say, "Well, why
don't they just admit it?"
2176
01:53:32,115 --> 01:53:34,600
Just come out and say,
"We've known all along."
2177
01:53:34,635 --> 01:53:37,086
Because look, this
is a big deal.
2178
01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:41,124
It has implications for
everybody, the politicians,
2179
01:53:41,159 --> 01:53:43,092
the DOD agencies,
and everything else.
2180
01:53:43,126 --> 01:53:45,439
If it's not done in
an orderly fashion,
2181
01:53:45,473 --> 01:53:48,787
if it doesn't allow
participation of
many institutions
2182
01:53:48,822 --> 01:53:52,308
and the public, it's going to
be that much more unpleasant,
2183
01:53:52,342 --> 01:53:54,310
it's going to be
more destructive.
2184
01:53:54,344 --> 01:53:57,002
We need to do this with as
many winners as possible,
2185
01:53:57,037 --> 01:53:59,453
and not too many losers.
2186
01:53:59,487 --> 01:54:01,869
And so this is what I call
2187
01:54:01,904 --> 01:54:06,598
a public relations driven
extrication process
2188
01:54:06,632 --> 01:54:10,257
in which the government
in an orderly fashion,
2189
01:54:10,291 --> 01:54:15,296
to good purpose, is lying
its way out of the bigger lie
2190
01:54:16,159 --> 01:54:18,196
to service a larger purpose.
2191
01:54:18,230 --> 01:54:19,542
You would ask about NASA.
2192
01:54:20,474 --> 01:54:23,718
And again when I
say this process
2193
01:54:23,753 --> 01:54:26,238
is a public relations
driven extrication program.
2194
01:54:26,273 --> 01:54:28,551
Oh boy, do I include
NASA in there.
2195
01:54:29,724 --> 01:54:33,107
In other words, it's
the entire government,
2196
01:54:33,142 --> 01:54:35,282
this interface with this issue,
2197
01:54:35,316 --> 01:54:37,560
is extricating itself and
correcting the record,
2198
01:54:37,594 --> 01:54:38,802
which includes NASA.
2199
01:54:38,837 --> 01:54:41,771
NASA under the 1958 space act,
2200
01:54:41,805 --> 01:54:43,842
absolutely not touch this issue.
2201
01:54:43,877 --> 01:54:45,061
All right, let me
put it this way,
2202
01:54:45,085 --> 01:54:47,018
it can find a whole
frigging civilization
2203
01:54:47,052 --> 01:54:48,295
on the back side of the moon,
2204
01:54:48,329 --> 01:54:49,928
and the first thing it
could do under the act
2205
01:54:49,952 --> 01:54:51,712
was notify the
Department of Defense.
2206
01:54:51,746 --> 01:54:52,955
"Look what we just found."
2207
01:54:52,989 --> 01:54:54,449
And the Department of
Defense is going to say,
2208
01:54:54,473 --> 01:54:59,237
"Fine, ever talk about
this, everybody's fired."
2209
01:55:00,100 --> 01:55:01,549
And so NASA this whole time,
2210
01:55:01,584 --> 01:55:05,450
- Is classified.
- Is yeah, absolutely.
2211
01:55:05,484 --> 01:55:06,934
Whether you find it or not.
2212
01:55:06,969 --> 01:55:08,971
And so NASA is trying
to explore space
2213
01:55:09,005 --> 01:55:10,489
and be the civilian
space agency,
2214
01:55:10,524 --> 01:55:12,250
while at the same time knowing
2215
01:55:12,284 --> 01:55:13,941
that there's a
extraterrestrial presence.
2216
01:55:13,976 --> 01:55:15,632
It could be confirmed,
and their budget
2217
01:55:15,667 --> 01:55:17,600
could be increased tenfold.
2218
01:55:17,634 --> 01:55:19,671
And they're a scientific
base operations,
2219
01:55:19,705 --> 01:55:22,674
so they're having to violate
certain fundamental principles
2220
01:55:22,708 --> 01:55:24,676
in service of national security.
2221
01:55:24,710 --> 01:55:27,679
So all the various entities
that what I would call,
2222
01:55:27,713 --> 01:55:29,992
the biggest state of
cognizant distance
2223
01:55:30,026 --> 01:55:31,890
on this issue would be NASA.
2224
01:55:31,925 --> 01:55:33,754
It has suffered because of this
2225
01:55:33,788 --> 01:55:37,240
and so nevertheless it is
gone along with the embargo.
2226
01:55:37,275 --> 01:55:39,725
So as part of the
public relations thing,
2227
01:55:39,760 --> 01:55:42,728
it's not surprising that
NASA is being allowed
2228
01:55:42,763 --> 01:55:46,284
to get up to speed, to
get with the ball game
2229
01:55:46,318 --> 01:55:47,802
so when things break
people would go,
2230
01:55:47,837 --> 01:55:49,056
"Oh, you're doing
the right thing."
2231
01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:50,160
So what did the government do?
2232
01:55:50,184 --> 01:55:52,014
What was the plans?
2233
01:55:52,048 --> 01:55:53,808
Well, they said we
know it's coming.
2234
01:55:53,843 --> 01:55:55,983
Yeah, we're about
to get going here.
2235
01:55:56,018 --> 01:55:58,020
We need a new NASA
administrator.
2236
01:55:58,054 --> 01:56:01,023
Why don't we pick a
former Senate member
2237
01:56:01,057 --> 01:56:03,370
of the Senate Intel Committee
2238
01:56:03,404 --> 01:56:05,130
who just happens
to be an astronaut
2239
01:56:05,165 --> 01:56:07,167
and make him the
administrator, right?
2240
01:56:07,201 --> 01:56:09,065
Perfect guy, Nelson.
2241
01:56:09,100 --> 01:56:10,629
And then it's like,
"Well, I think NASA
2242
01:56:10,653 --> 01:56:13,345
should make some interesting
statements, he did,
2243
01:56:13,380 --> 01:56:16,314
confirming, look, there's
something here and so forth.
2244
01:56:16,348 --> 01:56:18,626
Oh, by the way, NASA should
start up a research group,
2245
01:56:18,661 --> 01:56:22,320
or what have you, it's
doing the appropriate thing.
2246
01:56:23,907 --> 01:56:25,357
- [Narrator] STS-48.
2247
01:56:27,325 --> 01:56:29,948
STS 48 marked an
important mission
2248
01:56:29,983 --> 01:56:32,986
in terms of UFO rumors in space.
2249
01:56:33,020 --> 01:56:35,885
On the third day of the
mission, the primary payload,
2250
01:56:35,919 --> 01:56:40,510
the Upper Atmosphere Research
Satellite, UARS was deployed.
2251
01:56:40,545 --> 01:56:43,927
This 14,500-pound observatory
was set to conduct
2252
01:56:43,962 --> 01:56:46,516
the most extensive
study ever conducted
2253
01:56:46,551 --> 01:56:48,035
of earth's troposphere,
2254
01:56:48,070 --> 01:56:50,348
the upper level of
the planet's envelope
2255
01:56:50,382 --> 01:56:51,935
of life-sustaining gases,
2256
01:56:51,970 --> 01:56:55,008
which includes the
protective ozone layer.
2257
01:56:55,042 --> 01:56:57,700
[lively music]
2258
01:56:59,460 --> 01:57:01,393
During the UARS mission,
2259
01:57:01,428 --> 01:57:04,776
a flash of light was observed
by the UV space camera,
2260
01:57:04,810 --> 01:57:06,571
followed by the
sudden appearance
2261
01:57:06,605 --> 01:57:08,366
of two missile-like objects
2262
01:57:08,400 --> 01:57:11,714
heading towards mysterious
objects on the horizon.
2263
01:57:11,748 --> 01:57:15,166
[lively music]
2264
01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:18,583
These objects seemed to stop
and make evasive maneuvers,
2265
01:57:18,617 --> 01:57:22,552
marking a significant
moment in UFO space history.
2266
01:57:22,587 --> 01:57:24,002
After this incident,
2267
01:57:24,037 --> 01:57:27,833
some claim that NASA began
routinely obscuring space video,
2268
01:57:27,868 --> 01:57:30,457
cutting video feeds,
and using code words
2269
01:57:30,491 --> 01:57:33,356
to conceal UFO activity.
2270
01:57:33,391 --> 01:57:34,875
- Be right below it, hard to see
2271
01:57:34,909 --> 01:57:36,221
is the surface of the earth.
2272
01:57:36,256 --> 01:57:38,292
This is the earth down here.
2273
01:57:39,155 --> 01:57:41,606
This is above the atmosphere.
2274
01:57:41,640 --> 01:57:43,263
That's a star.
2275
01:57:43,297 --> 01:57:47,474
This is the second object
that is of interest to us.
2276
01:57:47,508 --> 01:57:50,028
And it's slowly coming
up as you can see.
2277
01:57:50,063 --> 01:57:51,719
And in a little bit
you're going to see
2278
01:57:51,754 --> 01:57:53,825
the main object pop up here,
2279
01:57:53,859 --> 01:57:58,036
go over, and you'll see
some flashes down here
2280
01:57:58,071 --> 01:58:00,452
and then it's going to
sharply cut back here.
2281
01:58:00,487 --> 01:58:03,593
[lively music]
2282
01:58:03,628 --> 01:58:06,009
Against later a streak is
going to go through there
2283
01:58:06,044 --> 01:58:09,806
right where it go, and
there goes the streak.
2284
01:58:09,841 --> 01:58:12,844
And there's a second streak
right there, hard to see.
2285
01:58:12,878 --> 01:58:15,295
You can't tell by
watching the video
2286
01:58:15,329 --> 01:58:18,850
but the main object actually
paused for half a second
2287
01:58:18,884 --> 01:58:21,439
before it turned back
up the other direction.
2288
01:58:21,473 --> 01:58:25,857
- If we take a look
at this STS-48 video,
2289
01:58:25,891 --> 01:58:30,586
in which it seems as though
we might be firing missiles
2290
01:58:31,759 --> 01:58:35,453
at a UFO that stops
in space above earth.
2291
01:58:35,487 --> 01:58:37,489
This is kind of worrying.
2292
01:58:37,524 --> 01:58:41,114
If the theory is
correct, Dr. Jack Kasher
2293
01:58:41,148 --> 01:58:43,254
wrote a physics paper on,
2294
01:58:43,288 --> 01:58:48,293
then that means that we are
firing on other civilizations.
2295
01:58:49,743 --> 01:58:54,161
But what if this craft is
actually a black budget
2296
01:58:54,196 --> 01:58:58,200
military craft from earth?
2297
01:58:58,234 --> 01:59:03,170
Either from a project that
is very quietly being run,
2298
01:59:04,516 --> 01:59:07,554
privately, that the
military doesn't know about,
2299
01:59:07,588 --> 01:59:10,177
or by an enemy nation.
2300
01:59:11,765 --> 01:59:15,217
Has a faction of the human race
2301
01:59:15,251 --> 01:59:20,256
been able to create UFOs
that operate in a way
2302
01:59:21,361 --> 01:59:23,017
that we would
consider unearthly?
2303
01:59:23,052 --> 01:59:25,503
That is the greater
question here.
2304
01:59:25,537 --> 01:59:30,128
But firing at something
that's in space like this
2305
01:59:30,163 --> 01:59:34,097
is also worrying
because it might mean
2306
01:59:34,132 --> 01:59:38,930
that we're at war
secretly in space.
2307
01:59:38,964 --> 01:59:41,864
And with the backdrop
of the Space Force
2308
01:59:41,898 --> 01:59:43,797
being created recently,
2309
01:59:43,831 --> 01:59:47,973
as well as this war
going on in Ukraine
2310
01:59:48,008 --> 01:59:53,013
between Russia and the West,
and soon possibly China.
2311
01:59:54,532 --> 01:59:58,570
One has to wonder if
this escalation in war
2312
01:59:58,605 --> 02:00:01,884
might spill over into
the theater of space,
2313
02:00:01,918 --> 02:00:06,923
and if we might see more
of this dramatic UAP or UFO
2314
02:00:08,028 --> 02:00:11,169
type activity
going on out there.
2315
02:00:13,930 --> 02:00:18,659
One thinks of the
2023 UAPs and balloons
2316
02:00:20,282 --> 02:00:22,387
that recently were shot down.
2317
02:00:23,561 --> 02:00:26,219
- My name is Alara and
I'm an experiencer.
2318
02:00:26,253 --> 02:00:28,773
I produced a space
in defense news show
2319
02:00:28,807 --> 02:00:30,327
for a number of years
which allowed me
2320
02:00:30,361 --> 02:00:32,915
to become very familiar
with the Space Force
2321
02:00:32,949 --> 02:00:35,158
in its initial
development and disclosure
2322
02:00:35,193 --> 02:00:37,851
to the greater
population at large.
2323
02:00:37,885 --> 02:00:40,267
I think when people initially
heard the term Space Force,
2324
02:00:40,302 --> 02:00:43,719
they were thinking space
lasers and spacecrafts,
2325
02:00:43,753 --> 02:00:46,273
something more akin
to "Star Wars".
2326
02:00:46,308 --> 02:00:48,689
And although there is some
element of truth to this
2327
02:00:48,724 --> 02:00:51,209
especial moving into the future,
2328
02:00:51,244 --> 02:00:53,694
this image of our sixth and
newest branch in the military
2329
02:00:53,729 --> 02:00:56,283
is not entirely accurate.
2330
02:00:56,318 --> 02:00:59,113
Space Force is mainly tasked
with intelligence surveillance
2331
02:00:59,148 --> 02:01:00,322
and reconnaissance,
2332
02:01:00,356 --> 02:01:02,358
operating and defending
military satellites
2333
02:01:02,393 --> 02:01:04,498
and their associated
ground stations
2334
02:01:04,533 --> 02:01:07,190
that provide global
communications, navigation,
2335
02:01:07,225 --> 02:01:08,709
and earth observation.
2336
02:01:08,744 --> 02:01:11,712
They're also in charge of
missile detection and defense.
2337
02:01:11,747 --> 02:01:13,335
You will hear the
term architecture
2338
02:01:13,369 --> 02:01:14,922
in relation to the Space Force
2339
02:01:14,957 --> 02:01:18,374
this encompasses the entire
network of military satellites
2340
02:01:18,409 --> 02:01:20,514
and their supporting components.
2341
02:01:20,549 --> 02:01:24,484
Also including secure data
transmission and analysis.
2342
02:01:24,518 --> 02:01:26,244
This is largely
what the Space Force
2343
02:01:26,279 --> 02:01:28,073
actually does at this time.
2344
02:01:28,108 --> 02:01:29,903
The future of Space
Force, however,
2345
02:01:29,937 --> 02:01:32,561
will heavily rely
on machine learning
2346
02:01:32,595 --> 02:01:34,563
and artificial intelligence.
2347
02:01:34,597 --> 02:01:37,807
AI will be tasking sensors
and then pruning the info
2348
02:01:37,842 --> 02:01:39,326
which will be sent to analysts
2349
02:01:39,361 --> 02:01:42,225
augmenting each operators
decision to act,
2350
02:01:42,260 --> 02:01:43,882
and in which direction.
2351
02:01:43,917 --> 02:01:47,196
Sensors and algorithms will
essentially make calculations
2352
02:01:47,230 --> 02:01:50,510
enabling swarm intelligence
to then execute.
2353
02:01:50,544 --> 02:01:52,615
Programs such as RS21
2354
02:01:52,650 --> 02:01:54,686
and it's prediction
of satellite failures
2355
02:01:54,721 --> 02:01:56,239
will become the standard,
2356
02:01:56,274 --> 02:02:00,347
as will distributed computing
and trajectory design.
2357
02:02:00,382 --> 02:02:03,833
Orbital swarms will create
structures and flying formation,
2358
02:02:03,868 --> 02:02:06,146
unthinkable amounts
of data analyzed,
2359
02:02:06,180 --> 02:02:08,459
and trajectories
calculated on the fly.
2360
02:02:08,493 --> 02:02:10,944
Now NASA is a little bit
different from Space Force,
2361
02:02:10,978 --> 02:02:13,395
in that it is our
Civil Space Program.
2362
02:02:13,429 --> 02:02:16,363
They're stated purpose
is to explore, discover,
2363
02:02:16,398 --> 02:02:19,366
and expand knowledge for the
benefit of all of humanity
2364
02:02:19,401 --> 02:02:22,335
into the far reaches of our
solar system and beyond.
2365
02:02:22,369 --> 02:02:26,097
Things like NASA's Sensor Web
and Hubble demonstrate this.
2366
02:02:26,131 --> 02:02:28,686
As where Space Force is
mainly tasked with detection,
2367
02:02:28,720 --> 02:02:31,861
prediction, and the defense
of mother earth herself.
2368
02:02:31,896 --> 02:02:33,380
All operations at this juncture
2369
02:02:33,415 --> 02:02:35,417
are pretty much limited to LEO.
2370
02:02:35,451 --> 02:02:38,040
However, Space Force will
be coordinating with NASA
2371
02:02:38,074 --> 02:02:39,455
in multiple areas.
2372
02:02:39,490 --> 02:02:41,906
One example of this
would be Artemis 1
2373
02:02:41,940 --> 02:02:44,322
where things such as
space debris detection
2374
02:02:44,357 --> 02:02:46,600
become not only
necessary, but critical,
2375
02:02:46,635 --> 02:02:48,395
in a congested space landscape.
2376
02:02:48,430 --> 02:02:52,088
Space Force ability to
coordinate space related efforts
2377
02:02:52,123 --> 02:02:54,056
between all branches
of the military
2378
02:02:54,090 --> 02:02:55,885
will be vital in order to enable
2379
02:02:55,920 --> 02:02:58,267
such missions moving forward.
2380
02:02:58,301 --> 02:02:59,786
The nature of war is changing,
2381
02:02:59,820 --> 02:03:01,960
and governments around the
world have acknowledged
2382
02:03:01,995 --> 02:03:03,583
that space and cyberspace
2383
02:03:03,617 --> 02:03:05,723
are the new war
fighting domains,
2384
02:03:05,757 --> 02:03:08,001
making the role of
Space Force integral
2385
02:03:08,035 --> 02:03:11,280
in coordinating
the technological
efforts on this front.
2386
02:03:11,314 --> 02:03:13,731
- I understand the Space
Force, US Space Force,
2387
02:03:13,765 --> 02:03:16,319
we have now fifth
branch of the military.
2388
02:03:18,045 --> 02:03:19,668
It wasn't a new idea?
2389
02:03:19,702 --> 02:03:23,223
I mean, that was I
mean, if you read,
2390
02:03:23,257 --> 02:03:26,226
delve into it, Google
it, delve into it,
2391
02:03:26,260 --> 02:03:30,264
this idea was thought
of back in the 1980s.
2392
02:03:30,299 --> 02:03:35,304
Reagan, Weinberger, many
government officials,
2393
02:03:36,650 --> 02:03:41,448
even a CIA, even Richard Helms,
2394
02:03:41,483 --> 02:03:45,694
he was the Director of
the CIA back in the 70s,
2395
02:03:45,728 --> 02:03:50,733
they had a proposal that
we have to, classified,
2396
02:03:51,493 --> 02:03:53,149
have to protect space.
2397
02:03:53,184 --> 02:03:56,946
Now, the proposal
meant more or less
2398
02:03:56,981 --> 02:04:00,536
that we had protect space
from Chinese or Soviets
2399
02:04:00,571 --> 02:04:02,676
from attacking us.
2400
02:04:02,711 --> 02:04:07,716
And so the proposal for a
Space Force was in the 80s,
2401
02:04:08,889 --> 02:04:10,512
the Department of
Defense planned it,
2402
02:04:10,546 --> 02:04:12,755
wrote out policies about it,
2403
02:04:12,790 --> 02:04:17,104
but it never went very far.
- Publicly.
2404
02:04:17,139 --> 02:04:18,278
- Publicly.
2405
02:04:20,418 --> 02:04:24,111
The Proposal went to to
President Clinton in the 90s.
2406
02:04:24,146 --> 02:04:26,735
'95, 1995 he was briefed on it,
2407
02:04:26,769 --> 02:04:28,806
and and they wanted
to push this through
2408
02:04:28,840 --> 02:04:31,256
in one of the defense bills.
2409
02:04:31,291 --> 02:04:35,433
He said, no he didn't
really want to do it.
2410
02:04:35,468 --> 02:04:37,400
Again in '81.
2411
02:04:37,435 --> 02:04:42,440
In 2001 under George Bush
it was pushed through,
2412
02:04:43,579 --> 02:04:44,936
and I didn't want
to do it either.
2413
02:04:44,960 --> 02:04:49,861
And then finally when
Trump came in office,
2414
02:04:49,896 --> 02:04:51,725
they brought this
proposal to him,
2415
02:04:51,760 --> 02:04:53,658
and he said, "Yes
sure, let's do it."
2416
02:04:53,693 --> 02:04:58,111
And that's why we have
the US Space Force now.
2417
02:04:58,145 --> 02:05:00,838
Now, I think it's too pronged,
2418
02:05:00,872 --> 02:05:05,567
one being that they do
want to counter anything
2419
02:05:05,601 --> 02:05:10,537
that the Russians put up,
or the Chinese, right?
2420
02:05:10,572 --> 02:05:12,884
And the second prong to that is
2421
02:05:12,919 --> 02:05:14,541
we want to be protected by,
2422
02:05:15,991 --> 02:05:19,615
we know there are hostile
alien forces out there,
2423
02:05:19,650 --> 02:05:20,650
we know it.
2424
02:05:21,686 --> 02:05:24,931
And we want to be
prepared for that.
2425
02:05:24,965 --> 02:05:27,105
- I believe the answer is,
2426
02:05:27,140 --> 02:05:29,625
they already know these
things are a threat
2427
02:05:29,660 --> 02:05:34,596
to some extent, and it is
not understandable to me
2428
02:05:34,630 --> 02:05:36,459
that they have not
adapted filters,
2429
02:05:36,494 --> 02:05:39,324
or turned off filters to
try to find some of these.
2430
02:05:39,359 --> 02:05:41,292
And I'll give you an example.
2431
02:05:41,326 --> 02:05:46,331
In ASAP, which was the
first program run to do UAPs
2432
02:05:47,712 --> 02:05:50,715
funded by Senator Reed and some
of his peers in the Senate.
2433
02:05:50,750 --> 02:05:54,616
One of the defense intelligence
research directives
2434
02:05:54,650 --> 02:05:56,514
the DERBS that came out,
2435
02:05:56,549 --> 02:06:00,242
was a section
covering experiencers.
2436
02:06:00,276 --> 02:06:05,212
And this government
classified document,
2437
02:06:06,282 --> 02:06:07,732
which is now released
to the public,
2438
02:06:07,767 --> 02:06:12,772
spoke to women being
impregnated in these experiences
2439
02:06:15,533 --> 02:06:16,914
where they are abducted,
2440
02:06:18,329 --> 02:06:21,574
and we don't know all of the
data that went into that claim,
2441
02:06:21,608 --> 02:06:24,093
but that's just in a
classified government document.
2442
02:06:24,128 --> 02:06:29,133
So that speaks to a
threat to the public
2443
02:06:30,341 --> 02:06:32,446
in the United States of America
2444
02:06:32,481 --> 02:06:35,795
that someone in the
government should care about.
2445
02:06:36,899 --> 02:06:39,384
And that's number one,
2446
02:06:39,419 --> 02:06:44,424
number two, we have
ongoing incursions of UAP,
2447
02:06:46,357 --> 02:06:48,428
whatever they might be,
2448
02:06:48,462 --> 02:06:51,914
in and around our
defense installations
2449
02:06:51,949 --> 02:06:56,885
and our equipment onboard
nuclear installations,
2450
02:06:56,919 --> 02:06:59,750
our missile bases,
our aircraft carriers,
2451
02:06:59,784 --> 02:07:01,752
and interacting
with our airplanes.
2452
02:07:01,786 --> 02:07:06,791
So, and in some cases causing
a hazard to flight safety
2453
02:07:08,621 --> 02:07:10,070
by some of these pilots.
2454
02:07:10,105 --> 02:07:13,867
So this to me speaks to
something we should investigate.
2455
02:07:13,902 --> 02:07:17,802
And it is clear from
the National Defense
2456
02:07:17,837 --> 02:07:21,737
Authorization Act,
and the budget bill
2457
02:07:24,326 --> 02:07:26,984
that was passed to
fund these activities
2458
02:07:27,018 --> 02:07:30,539
that Congress believes
there is an issue
2459
02:07:30,573 --> 02:07:32,748
that we need to investigate.
2460
02:07:32,783 --> 02:07:34,785
And for whatever reason,
2461
02:07:34,819 --> 02:07:37,650
the defense department
intelligence community
2462
02:07:37,684 --> 02:07:39,962
have decided to
not look into this.
2463
02:07:39,997 --> 02:07:41,792
Congress is having
no part of it,
2464
02:07:41,826 --> 02:07:44,829
they are determined
to get some answers
2465
02:07:44,864 --> 02:07:46,659
about what is going on.
2466
02:07:46,693 --> 02:07:50,697
And these all staff reports
and the current ongoing reports
2467
02:07:50,732 --> 02:07:52,941
of activity speak to the need
2468
02:07:52,975 --> 02:07:55,219
to get serious
about figuring out
2469
02:07:55,253 --> 02:07:56,565
what these things are about.
2470
02:07:56,599 --> 02:07:58,532
Why are they here,
what are they doing,
2471
02:07:58,567 --> 02:08:00,327
how do they do what they do?
2472
02:08:00,362 --> 02:08:02,882
[lively music]
2473
02:08:10,406 --> 02:08:13,824
[lively music continues]
2474
02:08:19,381 --> 02:08:21,141
- [Pilot] Okay, dude.
2475
02:08:24,835 --> 02:08:27,700
There's a whole fleet
of them I'm seeing.
2476
02:08:27,734 --> 02:08:28,734
My God.
2477
02:08:30,288 --> 02:08:31,531
They go against the wind,
2478
02:08:31,565 --> 02:08:34,568
when it's a hundred
twenty thousand.
2479
02:08:36,501 --> 02:08:41,506
Look at this thing.
