NARRATOR: Incredible reports from military personnel.
BRIAN: "Well, all I can tell you is they’re not ours."
"Not ours? What are you talking about?"
NARRATOR: A mysterious material not of this world.
LINDA MOULTON HOWE: As I understand, it is...
pure aluminum, 99.5%.
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: As far as I know,
we can’t produce 99.5%.
NARRATOR: Leaked government footage of a strange craft.
I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.
NARRATOR: On Ancient Aliens,
we’ve traveled to mysterious sites,
met with eyewitnesses
and closely examined evidence
of unidentified flying objects.
Now we take a look back
at some of the most incredible reports we’ve investigated.
Reports that, according to ancient astronaut theorists,
provide undeniable proof of extraterrestrial visitation.
♪ ♪
On Ancient Aliens,
we’ve investigated not only evidence
of extraterrestrial contact in the distant past
but incredible modern-day sightings
of unidentified flying objects
that suggest these visitors never left.
In recent years, the United States Navy
has released extraordinary UFO videos
that even they admit they cannot explain.
What could be more convincing than that?
Well, in 2019,
investigative journalist Linda Moulton Howe showed me
what she believes are remnants of an actual alien craft.
NARRATOR: Pahrump, Nevada.
1996.
Art Bell,
founder and original host of the paranormal-themed radio program
Coast to Coast AM
begins receiving shipments in the mail
of mysterious metallic fragments.
HOWE: Art Bell started getting
two shipments
coming from a man who identified himself
in a series of five typed letters.
And it said he was an Army sergeant,
that his grandfather had died in 1974
and had left a box that had a diary and metals.
In the diary, it said
that the grandfather,
with a group of security people,
saw a wedge-shaped craft
that was on what was then called in the ’40s
White Sands Proving Ground in southern New Mexico.
The grandfather saw the bottom of it glow for three hours
while they stood around it,
and he pulled off scrapings--
he called them scrapings--
from the bottom of the wedge-shaped craft
where it had glowed.
NARRATOR: Art Bell turned over these mysterious fragments and letters
to investigative journalist Linda Moulton Howe
for further study.
In June of 1996,
Linda commissioned University of Michigan researchers
to use a scanning electron microscope
and a technique known as X-ray fluorescence spectrometry
to analyze the samples and determine their makeup.
HOWE: It was made out of bismuth, almost pure,
one to four microns,
and that was the black layer.
The next layer was 97.6% magnesium,
2.4% zinc,
and that layering
was alternating like that.
So, I went to an exotic metals manufacturer in New Jersey,
and I said, "How would you make this?"
He said nobody can put bismuth and magnesium together.
It will automatically come apart.
This had to have been manufactured
by some kind of an advanced technology,
and he didn’t know what that would be either.
GEORGE KNAPP: I think we’ve got technology that we didn’t make.
A lot of people have come forward
with bits and pieces of the same tale.
We are presently analyzing metamaterials
that we did not make
that’s created in a way
that is beyond our technology.
Hey, Linda.
-Hey, it’s good to see you! -Good to see you.
NARRATOR: To learn more about these strange metallic fragments,
in 2019, ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos
met up with Linda Moulton Howe at a secure storage facility
in Los Angeles, California.
-Man, this is some door. -(beep)
(chuckles)
Okay.
Well, over the years, I’ve learned
that this is really pretty valuable.
-Right. -And I better keep it in something
-like a safety deposit box. -Right.
NARRATOR: Earlier in 2019,
the United States Army took an interest
in doing its own examination of these materials.
Linda is eager to show Giorgio just what it is
that has caught the Army’s attention.
Here is where the magic
-bismuth-magnesium-zinc resides. -There it is,
-inside the magic box. -Yeah. Here,
-I’ll take it over here and show it to you. -’Kay.
I have found,
since having this in 1996
and evolving with research,
that it has become now so valuable.
-What am I looking at, Linda? What is this? -Well, here is...
-See all these layers? -Yeah.
-HOWE: When you go to a scanning electron microscope... -Huh.
...and you see that the black, the black side,
it’s pure bismuth,
and it’s one to four microns,
which is about half the size of a blood cell,
and then it’s alternating just like a torte cake.
-TSOUKALOS: Yeah. -And the top silver,
that’s the magnesium-zinc alloy.
-Okay. -So, layer by layer by layer in microns.
TSOUKALOS: It’s almost as if it’s reflective, too.
HOWE: Yes, and when you get it in the sun,
it looks like a snowfield.
And that’s the magnesium zinc.
NARRATOR: In addition to this layered material,
Linda also has an unusual piece of aluminum.
HOWE: As I understand, from a physicist,
it is this--
pure aluminum,
99.5% pure aluminum.
TSOUKALOS: As far as I know, we can’t produce 99-point...
I mean, this is incredibly pure.
So where were these pieces allegedly found?
HOWE: These came out of White Sands
in New Mexico, outside of Roswell.
Is there a connection to Roswell with this piece?
NARRATOR: In July of 1947,
an unidentified flying object crashed to Earth
in the desert just outside Roswell, New Mexico.
It is today the most famous UFO event on record,
in part because it was the Army itself
that reported the craft as a flying disc.
BILL BIRNES: July 8 and 9,
the newspaper headlines--
"Army Captures Flying Disc Outside of Roswell."
How did the newspaper get that story? Walter Haut.
He was the official public information officer
at the Roswell 509th
who gave the story to the newspaper.
NARRATOR: But the military quickly walked back its story.
Within days, the mysterious Roswell UFO
was given an earthly origin
when the government claimed that the downed craft
was merely a weather balloon.
DAVID CHILDRESS: When you look at the whole Roswell incident,
it seems to be a recovery
that was very much a scrambled ad hoc thing.
And, in fact, witnesses had been to the crash site
before the military got there.
In the chaos of trying to clean up this crash site,
you have to wonder that whether they would really get it all.
Where would this material actually go?
And would they have left some of it behind,
just by accident?
NARRATOR: In April 2011,
the FBI released thousands of files
as part of its online FBI vault,
including a 1950 briefing to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
regarding informant information about three "flying saucers"
that were recovered in New Mexico.
Many researchers believe
this corroborates long-standing rumors
that the Roswell incident involved not one
but three crashed UFOs.
And there were numerous other incidents reported
during that time period in the area of Roswell
and White Sands Proving Ground that remain mostly unknown.
TSOUKALOS: Are there more pieces of these items?
Well, for the last, uh, 15 years,
I had a combination of another piece
of the bismuth-magnesium-zinc
and another smaller piece of the aluminum.
So, the pair that I had before
is now involved with military testing.
NARRATOR: In 2019,
Linda handed over additional samples of the exotic metals
for examination by the United States Army.
If multiple flying discs crashed
in the New Mexico desert in 1947,
was all the debris recovered long ago?
Many believe there are still remnants to be found.
And at a unique sky watch facility
in the Pacific Northwest,
researchers suggest
they have even more compelling evidence--
a glimpse inside an alien craft.
We’ve covered all kinds of UFO investigations
on Ancient Aliens.
But at ECETI Ranch in Washington State,
a team of investigators have taken UFO hunting
to a whole new level,
because they’re watching the skies not only with telescopes
and the naked eye but also with remote viewers.
In 2019, Nick Pope traveled to the ranch
to see this for himself,
and what he experienced was nothing short of mind-blowing.
NARRATOR: In May 2019,
former British intelligence officer Nick Pope
visited the ECETI Ranch in the Pacific Northwest.
ECETI is home to the Enlightened Contact
with Extraterrestrial Intelligence organization.
UFO hunters consider it a major hot spot
for unexplained aerial phenomena.
Over the past 33 years,
scientists from Boeing, NASA and Lockheed Skunk Works
have come to ECETI to research the activity in the sky.
But what sets ECETI apart from other UFO watch organizations
is that their most powerful observational tool
is not a telescope--
it’s remote viewers.
NICK POPE: Remote viewing is essentially
taking people who have or believe they have
the ability to see things not with their eyes
but with their mind
and putting them to work gathering intelligence.
My first exposure to remote viewing came
when I ran the U.K. government’s UFO program.
We looked at UFOs, crop circles, alien abductions.
Anything mysterious and unexplained, I did it.
Remote viewing might be tapping into unknown dimensions.
I know this sounds like science fiction,
but, actually, it isn’t.
Some of the work being done at places
like the Large Hadron Collider
are now quite seriously looking at the concept
of other dimensions.
NARRATOR: At ECETI, ex-government remote viewing expert,
-John Vivanco... -Hi there.
NARRATOR: and UFO sky-watcher, Peter Slattery
lead a team of remote viewers.
Today, they are working on an experiment
that will combine human observation
and remote viewing
in an attempt to better understand
what has become a recent increase
in UFO sightings over Washington state’s Mount Adams.
So, let me know, please,
what are your respective backgrounds with this?
I am a remote viewer.
I’ve been doing this professionally
for 20 years-- over 20 years now.
And I run a team of remote viewers,
and we work operational type projects for clients,
and we look at
different types of phenomena that can’t
be explained through conventional means.
I’m known as an experiencer slash contactee,
but also, I hold sky watch events.
So, we’re gonna do a sky watch and just
-see what happens. -Where are we gonna do that?
Just gonna go to the sky watch field here. So, let’s go
-and check it out. -Okay, great.
NARRATOR: As Nick joins Peter to conduct field surveillance,
John has stationed two remote viewers in a windowless room,
armed with nothing more than a pencil and a drawing pad.
The way it works is that
a remote viewer is given a random, eight-digit number
connected to what they’re supposed to remote view.
Now, they don’t get what they’re supposed to
remote view, only the number, that’s it.
They’re gonna be at the location of whatever it is,
through the mind describing
exactly what that is.
So, what are these remote viewers
actually gonna be doing in there?
It’s not so much viewing,
we get visual snippets
and a lot of body sensations.
Basically, they’re gonna be drawing and writing
a lot on paper.
And afterwards,
once we’ve got the data,
how are we actually going to analyze it?
So, I will collect that information
from them when they’re done, and then, in the morning,
we can meet up and see if we can come up
with some explanation for what went on.
Well, great, that sounds good.
I hope that we’re gonna have
some interesting and meaningful results.
NARRATOR: After discussing the details of the evening’s plans,
Peter and Nick part ways with John
and join the rest of the sky watch team in the field.
Pete, I see the team has grown somewhat.
PETER: We’ve got Adam here with us. He’s gonna be helping out
with the satellite tracker and monitoring the gear.
It’s just very important to be very quick off
the mark, knowing what’s what.
Sometimes, we can have two things
in the sky at the same time,
and one of them could be a satellite, the other not,
people can mix it up. So, when we’re focused
on the sky, it’s great that
somebody’s focused on the satellite tracker.
Great. So, we’re essentially making sure
-we don’t miss anything? -Oh, definitely, yeah.
We don’t want to muddle things up.
NARRATOR: The team gets to work
setting up the watch station
before the sun goes down for the evening.
They will be using various technology,
including infrared cameras in order to capture
any anomalies in the sky.
The location for their watch overlooks Mount Adams,
the largest active volcano
in Washington state and a hot spot
for UFO sightings.
In fact,
Mount Adams is associated with the first UFO case
to ever make nationwide headlines.
In June of 1947,
aviator and businessman Kenneth Arnold
claimed to have witnessed nine UFOs flying in tandem
from Mount Rainier at incredible speeds.
He reported that they performed a number of unusual
maneuvers and then disappeared
into Mount Adams.
As night sets in,
the team has all eyes glued to the sky
and on the lookout for any objects
that might cross their path.
Utilizing real-time satellite tracking data,
they can anticipate the arrival
of all manmade traffic
passing over their airspace.
-PETER: Hey, is that a satellite? -ADAM: Yep.
NARRATOR: Including the International Space Station,
-or ISS. -NICK: Adam,
how are we on the timing with the ISS?
ADAM: Uh, one more minute.
NICK: And which direction? West?
Uh, it’s gonna be coming from the west moving to the east.
Look at how bright this thing is.
Whoa! Oh, there it is there.
See?
That’s the space station. Can you see that?
-ADAM: That is the ISS, yep. -NICK: Okay.
NARRATOR: While the field team watches the sky,
the remote viewers are sketching
visual representations of whatever comes to them.
Incredibly, as the International Space Station
passes overhead,
both women begin to draw
virtually identical rectangular objects.
Well, it’s not a UFO, but it’s still
a pretty spectacular thing.
Yeah, it’s pretty epic to see.
NARRATOR: After spotting a few other satellites in the sky,
Nick and Peter notice a mysterious,
fast-moving object,
one that does not appear to be a satellite.
PETER: There’s one right there right now.
Look how quick it is. Is that a satellite?
I’ve got it on camera.
-ADAM: Where you at? -PETER: East,
southeast.
ADAM: I see nothing on the tracker.
PETER: Can you see it up here, guys?
Okay, I definitely saw it up in that section
of the sky with my naked eye.
It-it just caught my attention out of the corner of my eye.
I turned around, saw it for a few seconds,
-and then it faded. -That’s exactly what I saw.
And there was nothing on the monitor at all?
Nope, nothing at all. That section of the sky was clear.
NICK: And that’s, uh, satellites.
What about aircraft and flight paths?
-Nope, everything was clear. -NICK: Okay.
Well, it was something.
NARRATOR: Did Nick Pope
and the ECETI team spot
an extraterrestrial object in the night sky?
One that inexplicably disappeared?
Perhaps the answer lies with the remote viewing team,
who not only detected an object in the sky,
but even got a glimpse
of what was inside it.
On Ancient Aliens,
we’ve investigated some pretty extraordinary UFO reports,
and during a trip Nick Pope made to the ECETI Ranch in
Washington state, we actually caught a UFO on camera.
And while Nick and the team were watching this strange craft
move across the night sky, two remote viewers were
stationed in a windowless room drawing what they saw as well.
The results were absolutely amazing.
NARRATOR: ECETI Ranch. Trout Lake, Washington.
The morning after successfully capturing
an anomalous object
during their evening sky watch session...
-John, good to see you again. -Good to see you, Nick.
NARRATOR: ...Nick Pope meets up with John Vivanco
to see how the remote viewing portion of the experiment went.
Nick is eager to discover
if the remote viewers picked up
the same objects in the sky
that he witnessed with his own eyes,
and perhaps even perceived
additional details.
So, the remote viewers
were tasked
on two different things last night, and
I wanted them to describe
the first object on the sky watch
that was determined to be a satellite.
Right, so they have no idea
that you are asking them to look at a satellite...
-No. -...and that the satellite
-is the target? -Exactly.
So, are you ready to go through the first one?
-Yes. -Okay.
So, this right here is energy.
This is determined to be energy by this remote viewer
and talking about how it’s crackling,
hits and bounces of burst. It’s like static.
So, this is a mixture, essentially, of
almost like a stream of consciousness,
-what they are describing here in words. -JOHN: Right, exactly, right.
-NICK: And then a visual representation of it. -JOHN: Right.
Let me show you the next scan.
This subject is talking about
a dense material, thick gray,
cylindrical object.
Now, this different viewer is
getting the same type of box.
-It’s got lights blinking. -NICK: And these are
-completely independent from each other? -Right.
NICK: Wow. One, two, pretty much the same.
JOHN: Pretty much the same.
NICK: Wow. Impressive.
So, but let me show you this here.
There’s a burst of communication is what I find interesting.
And you have these, uh, almost looks like
solar panels on it.
NICK: Now, we actually saw
the International Space Station
last night, and it actually has those
two separate light panels,
like, what makes it different from most
conventional satellites.
Could this be what we’re looking at here?
JOHN: Absolutely. If what you saw
first identified as a satellite,
-then, yeah, absolutely. -NICK: Wow.
NARRATOR: Two separate remote viewers,
both depicting objects
that are consistent with the makeup
of the International Space Station.
It is an impressive coincidence,
but not as impressive as what John Vivanco
is about to reveal to Nick Pope
as concerns the mysterious UFO
they spotted in the night sky.
So, that’s a bona fide UFO. We can’t explain that.
And it blinked out, it completely disappeared.
What was the first thing you saw?
Well, the first anomalous thing
we saw was a flash of light
in the sky. I saw it myself. We had
a satellite tracker up and running.
We eliminated that possibility. There was no satellite.
So, this was anomalous.
JOHN: That’s interesting.
So, we get to this page here.
Now, they’re getting an energy and a structure.
It’s this reflective, metallic, the feeling thing,
almost like a mirage.
Uh, glowing blue color,
and very faint pinging sound. That’s interesting.
NICK: This is a visual representation?
This is... visual representation.
-So... -And it says energy, so....
JOHN: Energy, right.
Energy seems to be moving
outward in many directions.
So, I think what they’re trying to do here is
-display the energy, the ball. -NICK: Right.
All right,
you prepared to be weirded out here.
NICK: Okay.
JOHN: This subject is described,
as a crystal blue color.
It’s angelic and floaty.
Wow.
So, is this a person? What is this?
JOHN: I’m not sure what this is.
NICK: This subject here, I mean, uh,
this-this is clearly some sort of person,
I mean, or-or is it? I mean...
-Well, this is... -If we’re talking about something anomalous,
is the possibility here that, if this
was a UFO, that this is some sort of occupant?
JOHN: There is that possibility.
NARRATOR: An occupant?
Did this remote viewer
actually see inside the object
that the field team witnessed from the ground?
And if so, could this confirm that
what they saw was an extraterrestrial spacecraft?
JOHN: This remote viewer
is also getting a subject here,
and they are calling this flash of light
a subject, which is curious.
And when you see this,
uppercase P and a lowercase P,
they mean that subject is a paraphysical,
which means, in remote viewing, it is something
outside of our 3D reality.
So, this subject, according to this remote viewer,
is a flash of light on the mountain,
and this subject exists outside of our 3D reality.
-That is spooky. -Yeah.
I mean, we saw a flash of light on the mountain.
Are we saying here that this
flashing light on the mountain, and that these
sessions suggest that this is, like, something to do with
-extraterrestrials? -You know,
all I can say is
what the remote viewers got, and
from my perspective,
I think you’ve got a true anomaly there.
Wow.
NARRATOR: Could the visions described and illustrated
by the remote viewers confirm that what Nick Pope
and the rest of the sky watch investigators witnessed
was, in fact, an extraterrestrial craft?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and suggest further evidence of an otherworldly
presence visiting Earth can be found by examining
Chilean Navy footage of a UFO
that defies explanation.
On Ancient Aliens,
we have closely examined UFO reports
from around the globe.
Reports that most governments try to discredit.
But in the South American country of Chile,
they’ve been openly investigating UFOs for decades.
In 2014, the Chilean Navy captured
footage of one of the most incredible UFOs I’ve ever seen,
and Dr. Travis Taylor set out to investigate it.
NARRATOR: Just outside of Santiago,
Chilean Navy officers aboard an Airbus Cougar helicopter
are testing a forward looking infrared, or FLIR,
high-definition camera.
Suddenly, the camera captures a strange object
flying alongside them at an altitude
of 4,500 feet.
After tracking it for several minutes, they witness
what appears to be some sort of discharge
coming from the craft.
Cougar case was a military helicopter
back in 2014 that produced
footage in an infrared camera.
And we’re talking about military equipment,
we’re talking about millions of dollars in equipment.
It’s nine minutes long that they have continuous
infrared footage of this phenomena.
That’s really unprecedented.
And if this phenomena is going on for nine minutes,
we can do analysis on it.
NARRATOR: On November 25, 2019,
astrophysicist Dr. Travis Taylor,
traveled to Los Angeles,
California to review this incredible video
with image analyst Michael Bradbury.
For more than a decade, Bradbury has examined
videos of alleged UFOs, looking
for any signs that they could be something
other than manmade aircraft.
The Chilean helicopter video is really
intriguing and fascinating because
you have this vehicle or phenomena, whatever it is,
and then it starts releasing some type of material behind it.
So, we absolutely need to understand
what this phenomena is.
All right, here we go.
So, this is from the, uh, helicopter not far
-from Santiago. -Not far.
-Uh, November of 2014. -Okay.
There’s the object, and it’s only visible
in infrared format.
That’s really intriguing.
The hi-def video. It’s like it’s not even there.
MICHAEL: Two ground radar didn’t see it.
The radar on the helicopter could not pick it up.
So, super unique circumstances here.
You got two hot spots, and they’re separated.
You know, that’s intriguing.
I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.
NARRATOR: Michael inverts the image
so they can examine the object’s shape more closely.
MICHAEL: What I’ve done here
is taken the basic infrared,
and I’ve just kind of flipped it and adjusted it a little better
for clarity purposes.
-TRAVIS: You can clearly see the shape of the... -MICHAEL: Right.
...vehicle, or whatever the thing is.
It’s peanut-shaped. Why is it peanut-shaped?
The pilot, his description was
it had a flat body with
these two, like,
bright lenses or something.
You know, it kind of does look like two
jet engines if you’re looking at it from the back.
But the motion on it looks like it’s moving side to side,
and the aspect ratio doesn’t change on the circles.
-It’s not going into the page, as it should be. -MICHAEL: No.
TRAVIS: There’s no other structure.
-That’s the thing, if... -No.
You would see
wings, a nose cone.
-You wouldn’t just see the engine. -Right.
TRAVIS: You can look at a aircraft
with a infrared camera, and you see the structure
-because it’s hot. -MICHAEL: Right.
-You got sun shining on it. You go, you know... -Exactly.
the engine, the mechanics of it, make it hot.
That’s what I’m looking for here is reflectivity off of
-the physical structure, and it’s not there. -TRAVIS: There’s nothing.
That kind of throws that idea out.
NARRATOR: After isolating the object,
Michael applies color filters to better define
the object’s unique heat signature for closer analysis.
TRAVIS: Now, this one is really interesting.
MICHAEL: This is adjusted, not altered.
Sure. I got it. So, you’ve got black is hot here.
-Green is ambient temperature I’m assuming. -Yes.
-Then white is cold. -Correct.
So here’s the thing, there’s clearly
a field of cold air around
this thing that’s, um...
that’s baffling.
This thing, it’s hot, and then
-instantly... it’s cold. -Instantly cold.
-And in nature, that’s not how things work. -No.
There is a different temperature bubble
around the vehicle than there is
-around normal vehicles. -MICHAEL: Exactly.
TRAVIS: Which suggests some type of-of field,
whatever that means. Could be,
you know, electrical, magnetic, gravitational.
We just don’t know, but there is some sort of
clear anomaly and some sort of field around this craft.
So, when does it start, uh,
releasing the, uh, particulates?
It does at about five minutes into the video.
TRAVIS: So, right there, now that’s really interesting.
So, it’s very hot, right? It’s saturated black.
MICHAEL: Very hot.
So, again, in hi-def you can’t see it.
TRAVIS: That means it’s a temperature plume.
It’s not necessarily a particulate plume.
Like, if you spray out jet fuel from the back of a plane,
it starts cooling off almost immediately,
and you even get ice crystals in it, right?
Absolutely, because it’s affected by the atmosphere.
This thing stays hot.
MICHAEL: And it holds its shape,
which in itself, is highly unusual.
It doesn’t follow standard fluid mechanics.
-No. (laughs) -You can try to debunk this as just an earthly vehicle
all you want to, but I’ve never seen
any earthly vehicle that is explained this way.
What on earth could this thing be?
One thing the analysis has done for us is it--
it’s allowed us to sort of rule out,
well, it’s not’s a commercial airliner.
Well, we didn’t have, uh, radar tracks
and transponder tracks, so we know it wasn’t that.
And then, this wasn’t water or jet fuel
or something of substance that,
uh, the radar would’ve picked up.
So, this is something that we’ve never seen before.
NARRATOR: Could the Chilean Navy have captured footage
of an extraterrestrial aircraft?
Recently, military whistleblowers have come forward
to claim that, while governments around the world
may have become more transparent about their UFO investigations,
many are hiding even more sensational evidence.
On Ancient Aliens, we’ve examined dozens of eyewitness
UFO reports from retired military personnel, scientists,
and whistleblowers who all claim that the government is
hiding the truth about an alien presence on Earth.
And in 2019, investigative journalist
Linda Moulton Howe convinced a former
Navy flight engineer to share an incredible encounter
that happened in the last place you might expect,
Antarctica.
NARRATOR: Scottsdale, Arizona,
February 2019.
Investigative journalist Linda Moulton Howe
arrives to conduct an interview with a former
Navy flight engineer who has come forward with information
about strange events he witnessed
during his time in Antarctica.
(distorted): I knew things that
I-I felt needed to be
put out in the mainstream.
NARRATOR: "Brian," as he prefers to be called,
requested that his face
and voice be obscured to protect his identity.
His unit was based on the southern tip
of Ross Island at the U.S. McMurdo Station,
the main logistics hub that services nearly all of
the scientific outposts on the continent.
Brian, when did you get into the Navy,
and how did you get to Antarctica?
I enlisted in July of 1976.
In order to go to Antarctica,
you have to volunteer.
It’s not a, uh, duty station where you are ordered to go.
I was able to get orders to, um,
Antarctica Development Squadron Six,
which is referred to as VXE-6.
And its mission would be described as what, generally?
BRIAN: The mission, basically, was supplying
to out-camps, uh, science parties from
McMurdo Station to South Pole, back and forth.
Talk about sort of the route,
and what you guys began to see
on a repeated basis.
During our ’95, ’96 season,
my crew was doing a lot of back and forth to Pole.
Mainly, it was cargo resupply,
personnel exchanges.
That season, prior to us doing missions,
we were told by some of our officers that, if we saw
something flying,
that we weren’t supposed to say anything.
Oh, so you knew that...
-BRIAN: Well... -People had-- were already
-warning about... -BRIAN: Yeah.
-...but you had not seen it. -Right, so somewhere
around December,
uh, we were flying a mission from McMurdo,
and my loadmaster in the back,
he gets on the intercom on the ICS and he says, "Hey,
"there’s something off to the left here,
kind of shimmering."
So, I went up to the flight deck,
and I’m looking out the big windows,
and I see these little disc-shaped objects.
There was probably four or five of them,
and they were, at first, when I first saw them,
they were just stationary over one mountain peak.
And then, all of a sudden, I’m looking at them,
and one of them takes off by itself and flies
at incredible speed to the next mountaintop and stops.
And then another one in the group takes off
and heads toward where the first one went.
What did the pilot say?
BRIAN: (laughs) That was kind of funny.
My pilot gets on the intercom,
and he-he kind of jokingly goes,
"Well, all I can tell you is they’re not ours."
Not ours? What are you talking about?
And then I think back to the little brief we got
about if we see something down there, don’t say anything,
if we see something else flying around.
So, now this all comes-- rings true, it’s like,
so they weren’t just pulling our leg and joking with us,
there’s actually something going on here.
And it kept happening?
Yes, it happened at least two other times.
NARRATOR: Could Brian’s incredible story
reveal that there are government and military personnel
who are aware of
an extraterrestrial presence on Earth?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes
and suggest
even more compelling evidence of otherworldly visitation
may be found by examining
alleged alien abductees
and what might be hidden beneath their skin.
When it comes to UFO investigations,
no matter how many sightings are reported,
everyone wants the same thing: physical evidence.
A few years back, I was invited to see
a very bizarre and very
intriguing collection of what might be alien artifacts.
NARRATOR: Former law enforcement officer
and investigator Derrel Sims
has spent three decades collecting evidence left behind
at abduction scenes throughout the country.
DERREL: I treat it as a crime scene.
And to do that, you need to know what to look for.
In some of these cases, we’ll find a burn mark,
and in rare cases, radiation traces where a UFO has landed.
People will come back with a scar like
a dermatological scoop mark.
And, sometimes, we find some type of implant.
Thank you for coming by, Giorgio.
NARRATOR: In April 2016,
Giorgio Tsoukalos met with
Derrel Sims to get a closer look
at some of the hard evidence that Sims has collected
through the years.
One of the things we found on these abductees
is the alien leaves, like,
-a fingerprint on them. -Really?
And when they touch them, it leaves
a subdermal mark on you in the form of
-fingerprints, or long fingers. -Mm-hmm.
And here’s an example.
-It impacts the body subdermally. -TSOUKALOS: This is amazing.
DERREL: It literally goes into the skin,
and you can’t wash it off, you can’t get it off with
any kind of, um, solvent or anything.
And here’s another good example.
Here are some other handprints
that we’ve found around the world.
This is in Chile.
The lady got touched by this
entity with huge prints on both front and back
and left caustic burns on her body.
-So, this was visible light. -TSOUKALOS: Okay.
This same handprint literally shows up
in several other cases as well.
A little girl shows the same exact hand.
-This was fluorescence. -TSOUKALOS: Mm-hmm.
A police officer gets abducted.
The entity actually comes through the glass window
and left the holographic imagery in the glass.
TSOUKALOS: Very odd.
DERREL: Here’s one that fascinates me.
This is a print
that came off a wall in Pennsylvania.
The entire family are abductees,
with the exception of one person,
and this one touched the wall, and you can see
the fluorescence there where we lit it up.
This is the case of a-a lady that this is our
long fingers-- you can see the huge, long fingerprints
and the suction cups on these forefingers.
And this is on her headboard.
That’s fantastic.
You’ve now spent many years studying this.
And you see fingerprints like that,
handprints and, you know, residue,
what is your theory what we’re looking at here?
DARREL: My estimation as a former police officer
is that there was an oil-like substance
that apparently exudes from the body of the entity.
TSOUKALOS: That’s bizarre.
NARRATOR: Perhaps the most intriguing evidence
in Sims’ collection
are the alleged extraterrestrial implants
retrieved from various victims.
I want to show you something rather remarkable.
You can see the little objects here.
The perfect T, and the one off to the side.
TSOUKALOS: Yes. Mm-hmm.
So, we had them surgically excised,
and here’s what we found.
-There’s a good look at them... -Oh, wow.
-Okay. -...after they’re taken out.
There was a biological cocoon surrounding these originally.
TSOUKALOS: This is bizarre. And-and what did they determine this is?
We had this done in a blinded study,
Los Alamos, New Mexico Tech.
They did a qualitative and quantitative analysis.
And they found, Giorgio, you’re not gonna believe this.
It turns out that the objects are meteoric in origin.
What’s your opinion then?
And how did it get into the woman’s body?
In my opinion,
what we’re looking at are objects
that have been installed inside these people.
Someone is doing this.
This is entity related.
So, in my opinion, we’re looking at real,
actual evidence of these cases.
TSOUKALOS: Well, this is amazing.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that the implants
collected from the bodies of alleged abductees
are of extraterrestrial origin?
If the UFOs reported in our skies
belong to alien beings, could it be
that they are not merely visitors to Earth,
but have an agenda
for humankind?
The evidence that these incredible encounters
and sightings are real can no longer be denied.
And as governments around the world
begin to publicly acknowledge the existence of UFOs,
the truth will be revealed
that, not only have we been visited in the past,
but that our extraterrestrial teachers
are still here today.
