Senator Lee, thank you for joining us.

When members of the Senate discuss things in the sky

-that we can't explain, we need to know what's there. -Absolutely.

We are going to try to stimulate phenomena above the triangle,

all through the anomalous zone.

Oh, those two hit! Holy cow, look at that.

KALEB: From the moment they launch the rockets,

you can see all of them come up.

We're looking at something formation flying.

That thing took a major detour.

TRAVIS: We are about to launch the big rocket.

Oh, my goodness!

Hey, anybody got the rocket?

You seeing anything?

KALEB: It's gone.

NARRATOR: There is a ranch in northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter of the strangest

and most disturbing phenomena on Earth:

Animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings,

and unusual energies

that have proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years, the federal government

tried to find answers... and failed.

Now, a new team of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts

has taken over.

They are determined to solve the mystery...

and reveal...

The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

TRAVIS: Is anybody seeing the rocket?

THOMAS: I'm looking.

Where... Anybody got the rocket?

BRYANT: Are you seeing anything?

TRAVIS: Did anybody ever see the chute pop?

I didn't hear a pop. I didn't see anything.

It's gone.

TRAVIS: If it was lawn darted,

we'd have probably heard that thing thud big-time.

DAVE: Yeah.

TRAVIS: During our last and most ambitious

experiment of the year,

one of the strangest things we've ever witnessed

on Skinwalker Ranch just occurred.

You guys, why don't we go under the tent?

I think the Sky Elements guys are coming over to join us.

Sounds great.

TRAVIS: A high-powered rocket,

capable of reaching a speed of 800 miles per hour

and an altitude of 10,000 feet

seems to have just vanished after we launched it

up through the anomalous zone above the triangle.

Who knows what happened to that rocket? (laughs)

Who knows where it went, I mean it went out of sight

and I never heard it come down.

-Nope. -I don't know what happened to it.

So, we're talking about 10,000 feet or higher?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Probably right over 10,000 feet

-at Mach 1.5. -ERIK: Okay.

So you broke the sound barrier.

-Broke the sound barrier. -Mm-hmm.

-That's awesome. -Wow.

TRAVIS: What's most incredible about this

is that 10,000 feet above the triangle

is right where a radar balloon scan

that we conducted earlier this year

detected a shift in time of a quarter of a second.

Go for launch.

KIM: Off it goes.

We lost a quarter second of time.

Really? For data like this, a quarter of a second is huge!

And believe it or not,

that actually offers evidence

of what many scientists, including Albert Einstein,

have believed would be a side effect

of a nearby traversable wormhole.

Could that be what we really just discovered

high above Skinwalker Ranch?

The rockets were acting way more erratic than I was expecting.

-Mm-hmm. -I mean, corkscrewing...

-Yeah. -You know, just something we normally never see.

-Yeah. -DAVE: And then the fact that you couldn't

launch them all at once,

and all of a sudden you can launch them all at once.

It-it... None of this, it just doesn't jive.

TRAVIS: Well, how you guys doing?

Tell us about, uh, in the first flight,

it looked like he had about three or four drones

that seemed to fail.

And then the second one, there was ten.

-Is that typical? -TYLER: No, not at all.

We've never had them fail that early.

-Really? Hmm. -TYLER: Never.

That's absolutely unheard of.

Wow.

So just think about it, we have just conducted

the most ambitious, most complex,

really the largest scale collection of experiments...

-Mm-hmm. -...that we've ever done here so far.

And, uh, you know, as you've mentioned, we've probably

got about a terabyte of data to look through.

That's not an exaggeration.

Erik, I can't wait for us to download that

and play back through it, frame by frame.

Oh, yeah. I'm anxious to go collect those trackers.

Retrieve those from the drones, and then I'm ready

to break it down, go take a look at the data.

Yeah, I-I think so. I think it's time for us to pack it up.

-Yeah. I'm ready. -(overlapping agreements)

All right. Great work, everybody.

ERIK: Thank you very much.

(crickets chirping)

TRAVIS: After Erik spent several days

reviewing the massive amounts of data we collected

during our final experiment,

Brandon Fugal asked the team

to meet at his offices in Salt Lake City for a briefing

and to discuss everything else we documented this year.

It's great to be back with everyone,

thank you for coming together.

I, uh, appreciate Governor Herbert

joining us for this historic briefing.

TRAVIS: We were joined not only by

former governor of Utah Gary Herbert,

but also Jim Royston, the CEO of OmniTeq

and former executive director

of the International Space Station Laboratory,

as well as Jay Stratton,

who worked with Robert Bigelow to investigate the ranch

in the early 2000s and...

was a career defense intelligence senior leader

who was my boss when I took part

in the federal government's UAP Task Force

between 2019 and 2022.

I think it's important

that we dive right into the material

and the findings, uh, from the recent months

of investigation and research, which has been

more groundbreaking and historic than ever before.

As principal investigator since the beginning,

Erik, would you, uh, mind taking us through

some of the observations?

Yeah, so what I have to show you

are data hot off the presses.

This is something we've just done,

one of our biggest, if not the biggest experiment

that we've ever performed on the ranch.

This was done at the triangle and involves powerful lasers,

many rockets being launched and we added the element

of hundreds of drones

being flown at the same time in formation.

And I have the-the GPS positions

of some of those drones represented here

in the colors that you see on the screen here in the model.

So, what you see, um,

are the raw data from those trackers

and what may jump out at you immediately

is that there are some anomalies.

Mm.

Okay.

ERIK: Uh, those are the yellow points that you see

that appear to go beneath the ground.

BRANDON: Wow!

Whoa. That's insane.

TRAVIS: This was only one of many experiments

where we've seen GPS trackers above ground

somehow appear to go deep under the surface.

I think we are right at about the spot

where we started to feel the fear.

TRAVIS: In fact, earlier this year,

Jay Stratton toured hot spots with us

where he, himself, experienced strange phenomena

more than a decade ago.

And the GPS tracker we had on our vehicle

collected data that went more than 1,000 feet underground.

I have no idea what could possibly cause that.

Now, during this drone experiment,

-we were also collecting thermal imaging. -TRAVIS: Yeah.

ERIK: We had the FLIR camera set up looking

at a portion of the mesa and at a swath of the sky,

and there are in fact some things that show up

in that footage that really catch my attention.

Yeah.

I-I do want to share one of the rocket launches

uh, in the thermal footage.

BRANDON: Okay.

-ERIK: So here we see the rockets have launched. -TRAVIS: Nice.

This was a simultaneous launch of a pair of rockets.

Yeah, that's awesome.

So, besides the rocket launch itself,

you may notice that there are things showing up

in-in the thermal that we did not see with our eyes.

So, I'd like to show you this in a different representation.

Here we have a relief.

It gives it a three-dimensional quality.

And some of the features show up a little more clearly

when we look at them this way.

-BRANDON: Whoa. -CAMERON: Wow, look at that.

TRAVIS: Oh, yeah, you can clearly see the object.

ERIK: Are you seeing it move across?

BRANDON: I see it.

I mean, you see it when it appears.

So I'm going to take us back just a little in the timeline.

TRAVIS: That object is clearly there

but it didn't fly in.

It didn't come up over the horizon,

it just appeared in that spot.

How did it get there?

Explain how it would appear out of thin air.

TRAVIS: We've seen a lot of UAPs

in the skies above Skinwalker Ranch.

And seeing this one appear out of nowhere,

on the same night

where a rocket may have disappeared

around 10,000 feet above the triangle

just makes me wonder if they could be related.

Now, that's really interesting there.

I don't know what that is, Erik.

That's a good catch.

There are some other things showing up.

Wait till you see the next thing I've got for you.

-Oh, there's more? -Oh, yeah.

Um, in this case, I have what I classify

as ensembles of targets, moving as if in formation.

I want you to focus on this part of the screen here.

-BRANDON: Whoa. -CAMERON: Oh, my gosh.

ERIK: You see what's happening?

Now look what happens.

BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

It's slowed down and changing position, that's huge.

TRAVIS: W-What was that?

Now there's like four or five of them.

Did you see that?

I thought it was one object, they broke apart.

TRAVIS: W-What was that?

CAMERON: I thought it was one object, they broke apart.

There's multiple of them.

I got to see that again.

You got it.

TRAVIS: So, there they come up

from the bottom right of the screen,

you see them right there,

and then as they move in...

BRANDON: You say they, it looks like one object to me.

-ERIK: Uh... -KALEB: Wait till you see it.

TRAVIS: Yeah, that's one. That is one object right there.

BRANDON: That's one object...

TRAVIS: And then right here, watch...

right there, there it split. Right there.

BRANDON: Has it split or has it just morphed?

ERIK: I can dive in.

So, here they are.

You can see that there are discrete objects in this set.

BRANDON: Yeah.

Like a cell dividing.

This is absolutely fascinating.

TRAVIS: When we first saw this UAP split into smaller ones

during our experiment last week, it was certainly baffling.

But when Erik refined the footage and zoomed in,

so much more detail was revealed

and it was absolutely shocking.

So, I'm going to remove that filter.

Here is our raw data, Brandon.

CAMERON: It's on the thermal though.

ERIK: It's thermal.

-CAMERON: Yeah. -BRANDON: No, it's a fleet.

-CAMERON: Flying formation. -BRANDON: They are flying formation.

ERIK: So, what you are looking at is something

that is warmer than the ambient.

The first thing I would think

is I am looking at a flock of birds.

Geese is what I would think of.

-ERIK: Yes. -Flying in a V or something.

ERIK: Yeah. But this is in fact

in the middle of the night.

Regardless of night, it doesn't follow bird patterns

where they're so tight, they're in one ball

and then they break off.

TRAVIS: Think about it. Yeah, if-if they are formation flying,

uh, something is communicating their formation

with each other or each one of them

is making individual measurements quickly

so that they don't fly into each other.

If they're being controlled from somewhere

then there's a signal that would be being broadcast

between them updating their information.

Could these things have been formation flying

through remote or somehow in communication with each other?

CAMERON: With Jay's extensive experience with UAPs,

I'd like your perspective. You're awfully quiet,

but I see that, uh...

Is this the first time you've seen something like this?

-That's why I'm being quiet. -(laughter)

There's something going on here that's really very strange.

So, I have a similar event from the same experiment.

-TRAVIS: Really? -Yes.

-Another one? -Another one, very similar to this.

This is from later during the course of this exercise.

-You're looking at the raw thermographic footage. -TRAVIS: Oh, look at that.

BRANDON: Oh. And it just appeared.

TRAVIS: It didn't come up over the horizon,

they were just there.

JIM: What's the number count? Four? Four or five?

TRAVIS: I think five or six. Look, more of them split off.

And how fast are they going is the question.

ERIK: The other thing that I find kind of peculiar

about this is the uniformity of this motion, it's so smooth.

You know, normally when I see at least in the near field

when I see birds flying through my field of view

I see very erratic type of movement.

You know, I see the-the movement of the wings

and I also see, uh, direction changes.

This, this is eerily uniform,

you know, as it moves through our field of view.

TRAVIS: The interesting thing to me is that

you've got it at two different times,

looking in the same field of view,

same direction, didn't change the camera's, uh, viewpoint.

Which suggests it being a common spot for whatever this is.

ERIK: Mm-hmm. Exactly.

So this all happened within that same area

of where we saw the UAP coming out of the mesa

and into the triangle.

TRAVIS: Three weeks ago,

we conducted an experiment

at the triangle by launching rockets

horizontally from the top of the mesa

and vertically from the ground as well.

-Oh, wow. -That was cool.

TRAVIS: And what a camera mounted on Brandon's helicopter

captured absolutely left us stunned.

BRANDON: Well, Erik, do we have that footage?

ERIK: Yeah.

So, I want to draw your attention to this area,

I want you to watch this part of the sky

very carefully.

GARY: Yeah, I see it.

BRANDON: Watch as that object descends.

ERIK: Now, it disappears.

And it gets really interesting here.

We continue in the helicopter towards the east.

On the lower left-hand portion of the screen

suddenly a light comes right out of the mesa.

-Oh, my gosh. -That's scary.

ERIK: Okay, I'm going to take us back.

-That's crazy. -BRANDON: It's stunning.

-Wow. -Yeah, wow.

TRAVIS: How many times have we been told,

uh, from Junior Hicks, from other folks around,

from the Bigelow-era folks that, uh, they've seen

things fly in and out of the mesa?

Well, we actually have it on camera now

of something flying in and out of the mesa.

TRAVIS: For generations,

the Indigenous Navajo and Ute nations

near the ranch have passed down stories

about interdimensional portals, or wormholes,

allowing UAPs to actually fly into and out of the mesa.

And now, we've not only seen this phenomenon for ourselves,

but a number of other UAPs just appear out of nowhere

and then simply vanish.

So, could the UAP that appeared out of nowhere last week

and split into smaller objects

that flew in a uniform formation

have possibly emerged from a wormhole

above Skinwalker Ranch?

Estimating the distance from where this thing

flew into the ground

and where it came out of the ground,

and the amount of time that passes in the video,

suggests that it was doing about 300 miles per hour

underneath the surface of the ground,

if this is the same object then flying through the mesa.

300 miles an hour through dirt.

Who knows what we're seeing.

It's beyond coincidence that we see phenomena

appearing left and right,

and I'd say some of the most stunning

UAP phenomena ever captured on camera,

not just at Skinwalker Ranch, but anywhere.

I mean, you-you've seen a lot,

Jay, I mean, to see clear as day

a luminous object

literally descend from the sky quickly,

and then leave the mesa

and pass right below the helicopter...

No, in one place to capture all this, uh,

with the quality of-of the, uh, cameras

and etcetera that we have is...

I don't know anywhere else.

Uh, there's a reason why U.S. government organizations

like NIDS and AAWSAP contracted this location

as an observatory,

uh, and it's really, uh, lived up to that.

-Absolutely. -BRANDON: So crazy.

Well, within the region of the triangle,

we have seen an unprecedented number

of strange events and anomalies.

Recently some of the most perplexing data

that we've collected comes from work

that we've done with you, Jim.

Yep. And that is something to definitely dig into.

ERIK: Recently, some of the most perplexing data

that we've collected comes from...

work that we've done with you, Jim.

Uh, a lidar survey, of the area

right there at-at the triangle.

And there are features showing up in the data

that I just don't understand.

Especially the reflectivity aspect of the data

that's just really got us all scratching our heads.

Yeah, so we have I'd say one of the most

probably advanced small lidar scanners

that we put on the drone.

It does upwards of 400,000 scans per second.

For this particular instance, we said let's scan

as we're going to launch a rocket.

Yep.

About a month ago,

Jim and his colleagues from OmniTeq,

which all have extensive government

intelligence backgrounds, helped us scan the triangle

with an advanced lidar scanner

while we launched a rocket

up through the anomalous zone above the triangle.

Three, two, one.

TRAVIS: Well, right at that 31-foot blob level...

-BRYANT: We got a good chute. -Oh, good chute.

TRAVIS: ...the lidar's infrared lasers detected

the rocket passing through and displacing

something we couldn't see with the naked eye.

-Look at that. -That's interesting.

TRAVIS: And then when Jim further processed the data,

it showed a perfectly circular formation at the triangle

with a black void right in the center.

-What are we looking at? -THOMAS: A black hole? (laughs)

Well, it could be a shadow of a wormhole.

And that brings us to the data,

which is the most detailed,

scientifically instrumented experiment

I think that we've done

with high-level scientific equipment,

and that's the thing that really excites me

about this particular measurement.

So, this is one of the most fascinating, uh,

pieces of data so far in the nearly four years

that I've been coming out to the ranch.

And-and so I'm really excited about what we got from this.

Go on to the next slide, Erik.

So, here's the data.

This is straight from the lidar.

So, look at some of this area here,

you can see, this is the road that makes the triangle

and the triangle looks about like-like this.

Right? Now, as you notice, there's a-a black spot here.

So black is no data returned at all.

That is a shadow of something

you would think, but of what?

How can there be a spot right here

where the drone is literally right here,

moving back and forth, making this measurement.

Shining the laser at the ground,

the beam should hit the ground, bounce off of the dirt

and come right back up to the drone

and paint just like it painted the rest of the area.

That should be filled in.

-Right. -So it's really odd what that is.

Erik, uh, you can go to the next one.

Now, if the lidar is going, the rocket goes up,

what you should see is one line,

uh, getting painted of the rocket going up

and that's what we expected to see.

And so when we go back and look at the data,

you see multiple paths

that look like you're looking at the rocket

through a bunch of mirrors

and it creates an arc,

uh, that's kind of going around this anomaly.

How could that be possible?

What are we seeing?

Something is bending the light,

making it think that there are multiple rockets

being launched in different locations.

And I got to thinking,

well, what on earth could do that?

All right, next slide, Erik.

So, are we seeing a wormhole? Or a portal?

Now, if it is a portal, what would that look like?

Well, if you think about the typical

Einstein-Rosen Bridge, that, uh, uh, w-what a wormhole is

you have normal space and there's a hole

literally in that, that connects us

to another part of space that moves through elsewhere.

And they're really far apart but somehow

you connect them through what looks like

two funnels stuck together at the throats of each funnel,

and you would travel through it, making the distance shorter.

So, there's a clear anomaly in the lidar data.

There's something strange going on.

-Completely unexplained. -TRAVIS: Absolutely something strange.

Right.

Is it possible

that the strange void Jim Royston and the OmniTeq team

detected with their lidar

really is an image of a wormhole above the triangle?

Oh, we got a malfunction. Everybody, watch out.

There's something in the sky above the rocket, right here.

Could that explain the blob that destroyed our rocket

earlier this year about 31 feet in the air?

CLAYTON: Go for launch.

THOMAS: That is a heck of payload.

-Wow. -TRAVIS: Or the quarter second shift

in time that was recorded nearly 10,000 feet high...

We did have some clock anomalies.

TRAVIS: ...right where our rocket disappeared last week.

We lost a quarter second of time.

Oh, my goodness, a quarter of a second is huge!

Nobody has ever measured any anomaly like that on the planet.

Exactly.

TRAVIS: It came right out of the mesa!

Does it also explain where the UAPs we see come from?

What the hell was it?

TRAVIS: And why they sometimes

vanish into thin air?

Wow. This is stunning.

And finally, does it prove the traditions

of the Indigenous people of this area

who have believed for generations

that there are portals, or wormholes,

here on Skinwalker Ranch?

The visual representation of what your scans

have picked up, it's jaw-dropping.

But then you add on top of that,

the fact that we're seeing UFO or UAP activity

within this region and airspace.

Yeah.

BRANDON: When you start adding all of that up,

we're looking at something that is...

game-changing, that will rewrite history potentially

as-as it relates to our understanding of the planet,

physics and really the nature of reality.

That's right.

Well, here's the thing, we have so much more to cover.

Right.

You know, we've been talking about everything

that may be above the triangle

and what has been recorded.

The mesa continues to be a main point

-of geographic interest on this property. -Yep.

Let's talk about what may be beneath.

Yeah.

BRANDON: The mesa continues to be

a main point of geographic interest on this property.

Let's talk about what may be beneath.

-Sure. -THOMAS: Well, Brandon,

we pulled the metal out of the mesa last year

and that's really been the elephant on the ranch.

What is sitting inside the mesa?

You know, w-we had this dome object

that we hit up against as we were trying

to drill in last year and so, obviously

that was at the forefront of our minds,

especially mine this year.

Yeah.

TRAVIS: Aside from the crazy mystery of the triangle,

the mesa may also be a key to

getting answers about the phenomena on Skinwalker Ranch.

(machinery whirring, grinding)

BRYANT: Boy, that thing sounds like it's hitting something.

TRAVIS: Last year, a drilling operation

scraped along the bottom of what we believe to be

a 400-foot-long dome-shaped metallic object.

ERIK: What is that?

TRAVIS: It was impossible to penetrate.

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

THOMAS: I wondered if it was like metal flakes or something.

That's exactly the same impression I got.

TRAVIS: But we did find metal fragments in the spoils

such as europium, tellurium, aluminum and selenium,

which are components of what are known as metamaterials.

Now, this is interesting, the color reminds

this individual of elemental selenium deposits.

Selenium is an optical material

that-that's being used in military experiments.

-Really? -TRAVIS: Yes.

What makes this particularly interesting

is that our own government is currently experimenting

with these kinds of metamaterials for applications

such as cloaking technology for aircraft.

I'm really interested in what you found, Jan.

-Absolutely. -Yeah, I can't wait.

TRAVIS: And then this year, we ran new state-of-the-art

ground-penetrating radar scans

that detected a second, possibly metallic anomaly

positioned vertically right behind

the dome-shaped object.

ERIK: What in the hell are we looking at here?

It's hitting something really hard and smooth.

TRAVIS: What in the world is that?

This time, we tried drilling into the top

of the dome-shaped anomaly,

and once again we couldn't break through it.

But even more perplexing was that after hours and hours

of grinding away on it, the drill bit showed no damage,

as if this dome-shaped thing is surrounded

by some kind of frictionless force field.

Both times, when you pulled the drill bit out,

it was in perfect condition.

We thought maybe the bit was damaged,

but it-it was perfect condition.

-Wasn't even dull. -No sign of wear on it.

-Mm. -Is this thing inside the mesa frictionless?

Or have some barrier on it that's frictionless?

Some special kind of lubricant?

-Some kind of super lubricant. -Yeah.

So, we really don't know what it is

that's inside the mesa.

We still have to figure out a way to get in there.

But fortunately, the experiment

we did with Lunasonde,

the whole point of it was not just to measure

the electric fields and the time anomalies above the triangle.

They have this technology

that is a brand-new sensor technology

that should be able to show us

maybe as much as three miles deep below the ranch.

ERIK: So, I have Jeremiah Pate queued up on video call,

and so I'd like to bring him into this meeting

and have him walk us through what his findings

have been from that survey that was performed over the ranch.

Awesome. I can't wait to see this.

BRANDON: Greetings, Jeremiah. Thank you for joining.

Yeah, thank you, Brandon, and hello everyone.

ERIK: Hey, Jeremiah.

JEREMIAH: So, we managed to actually extract

some sub-surface data from our balloon flight.

-Okay. I think we're good. -Go for launch.

TRAVIS: Five weeks ago...

Jeremiah Pate and his team from Lunasonde

performed a low-frequency radar scan

70,000 feet above the ranch...

Fantastic.

TRAVIS: ...which is actually what detected

possible evidence of a wormhole

some 10,000 feet above the triangle.

However, the scan was also designed

to collect data deep inside the mesa and underground,

which Jeremiah needed a lot more time to process and analyze.

So, we couldn't wait to hear those results.

So, I have some slides I can share.

Um, this is an actual rudimentary image

of the subsurface, uh, under the ranch.

Perfect. You've got a room full of people

who are on the edge of their seats

waiting to see what you've discovered.

JEREMIAH: Absolutely.

So, here's a quick glance

at the actual subsurface map here.

This image is actually

the underside of part of the mesa.

Okay.

JEREMIAH: There were a number of anomalies.

So, each of these dots is color-coded

according to depth underground.

And so the purple parts are much closer

to the surface, so those tend to be in the range

of around ten meters or so below surface level.

And the dots that are green

tend to be a bit deeper, 15 to 20 meters.

And then the yellow dots tend to be a little bit below that.

They seem quite out of place geologically

would be the best way to put it.

So many anomalies we saw underground

appear to be voids beneath the surface.

It does not seem to be consistent

with the surrounding geology.

These are fairly large targets.

How big would you suspect, uh, some of these voids are?

So, these voids tend to be

in the, uh, tens of feet, um, from what we've seen.

Whoa.

And they also seem to be in a mostly linear form.

Wow.

JEREMIAH: This is a 2D rendering

as seen from above what we saw underground

with the same sort of color-coding.

It definitely seems like a tunnel type of structure.

It's actually stretching into the mesa itself.

-Wow. -This really got our attention.

-Yeah. -It's very, very, uh, interesting.

So, these structures right here,

some of these are in the order of 60 feet wide.

-60 feet...? -As big as this room.

Jeremiah, what do you conclude from this?

If you were to speculate based on your expertise,

what are we looking at here?

The conclusion this has all led me to

is some sort of tunnel with a high metallic content.

JEREMIAH: The conclusion this has all led me to

is some sort of tunnel.

And some sort of tunnel with a high metallic content.

Wow. That is, uh, really interesting.

Yeah.

JEREMIAH: So, it does seem like the evidence

is very much in favor of

an artificial explanation for this.

Yeah, absolutely.

This seems to be almost tracing out an outline

of a much larger structure within the mesa,

and indeed, under the entire ranch.

BRANDON: In other words, it appears that you have confirmed

that there is indeed a very sophisticated

underground void or underground tunnel system in the mesa.

That is correct.

-Wow. -Wow.

Somebody has purposely built these tunnels.

Yeah.

And for what purpose would we see

this kind of extraordinary system

embedded in this mesa?

And the mesa is ancient.

-Right. -BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

What have we stumbled on?

BRYANT: Yeah.

Is this something of modern manufacture?

Or is this something ancient

that we are now revealing?

I mean, we've got to take this to the next level,

and I think your efforts are really going to help us

advance our research and find out

what really lies beneath this very unusual property.

Yes, absolutely. Thank you.

Yeah, it's my firm conviction

that the answers to the ranch

are not on the ranch, but under it.

Well said.

This was stunning. Jeremiah, thank you.

Please thank your team

and we look forward to being in touch

to really escalate this,

and take whatever steps needed

in order to delve into this even further.

Thank you.

-Thank you so much. -Thanks, Jeremiah.

Amazing.

-I was not expecting that. -No.

Well, as we talk about next steps,

let's lower the shades

and, uh, and really discuss

what we need to do moving forward,

in light of this really revelatory data.

TRAVIS: You know, we don't know how deep the things in the mesa go.

We don't even know how to get to the things

that are 30 meters away inside the mesa.

-I still favor the, um... -TRAVIS: Less invasive?

The less invasive, exactly.

The surgical approach to going into those structures.

We obviously don't want to destroy

the very thing that we're here to study.

BRANDON: Uh, there are a lot of things that are compelling

that are going to need further consideration and research.

There's a lot going on.

Yeah. We've seen, you know, multiple compelling things.

-Yeah, absolutely. -Yeah.

Even if we get answers at the triangle

and inside the mesa,

there are several more areas

across the 512 acres of the property

where truly bizarre things also occur.

At Homestead Two, we've documented UAPs, energy spikes

and we've even unearthed metamaterials in the same area

similar to what we found in the mesa.

In the east field,

we documented a thermal anomaly

right over a spiral of boulders

that is believed to have been created

by Indigenous tribal members centuries ago

in order to depict an interdimensional portal.

And in the south field,

we've captured footage of multiple UAPs,

including one in broad daylight.

And also found the mutilated carcasses of dead animals

that died under very mysterious circumstances.

Given the size and scale of the property,

Jim, we're looking forward to having you

engaged further and invite you

to give us some idea of what you would recommend.

What are the next steps?

So, it's persistent data collection.

we really need to get sensors up.

We need to treat it like a true operational environment

and then collect data, you know, 24/7.

We're focusing on the triangle,

we see something happening there,

but what's happening down at the petroglyphs

at the same time?

You know, as we bring these sensors on,

we can see where they are,

how they relate to each other

and then these sensors will actually

start talking to each other.

So, the sensors, instead of waiting

for one of us to go, "Oh, go take a look over there,"

the sensors will actually share data.

So, as we see a magnetic field

start moving across the ranch,

we'll all be able to look across

and we can visualize, where did it start from?

Or if we see a UAP, these sensors

will be smart enough to go,

"I saw something, turn cameras in this direction."

And then all this data will go into what we call

our Athena engine, which is our AI engine,

and what that will do is start aggregating

all this data in real time

and they'll start being able to really

make sense out of this.

TRAVIS: We've documented so many kinds of phenomena

over the last four years on Skinwalker Ranch.

And even though we are starting to suspect

some truly incredible possibilities

for what causes them,

Jim Royston and his colleagues at OmniTeq

believe they can outfit the entire ranch with sensors

that will use artificial intelligence

to help give us definitive answers in the future.

You're familiar, of course, Jim,

with the fact that we have a lot of separate measurement tools.

But the opportunity to put those into

an always-online mode

and always bring in the data and the capacity

to actually deal with all those data streams,

is something that we haven't had until just now.

You're bringing the ability to process, filter,

and taking a lot of that load off of, frankly, me.

So having all of that come through

an artificial intelligence machine-learning system

is going to be extremely enabling.

So, I imagine that the rate at which

we are making discoveries is about to accelerate.

JIM: Absolutely.

ERIK: So, I imagine that the rate at which

we are making discoveries

-is about to accelerate. -Yeah.

JIM: Absolutely. It's really understanding

the-the operational environment, right?

-Defining that. -Yeah.

ERIK: I'm very optimistic about the collaboration

opportunity with OmniTeq.

This is a group of individuals

with military intelligence experience.

They have remarkable technologies at their disposal,

which should help us to discern

any interesting correlations or patterns

in what is otherwise a very complex data set

here at the ranch.

So, if we're going to define an operational environment,

it's got to be a secure environment.

As part of that security suite,

we will be integrating seismic sensors.

So, whether you're a rabbit or you're a mule deer

or you're walking on two legs, whether you're running,

crawling, we'll be able to identify it,

where it is and what's going on.

Great.

We are evolving towards a long-standing vision.

If we do have something that's modifying space-time

as we've speculated, we should be able

to see more than one thing changing in correlation.

Even if it's some exotic natural phenomenon.

We should be able to better understand it

by putting that system in place, putting that network in place

and letting Athena do its job.

Absolutely.

BRYANT: And you know what, frankly,

I'll be curious to see, no offense...

(laughs) how much the ranch

messes with your high-tech equipment, because...

We've seen a little already.

(laughter)

BRYANT: It almost feels like

if the ranch doesn't want you to collect something,

you're not going to do it. I know it sounds crazy.

It goes back to what Travis said

the very first time he met with us,

"Well, it's just a place, right?"

Maybe not.

(Jim chuckles)

BRANDON: Well, very good.

We're excited and really appreciate

all that you're bringing to the ranch.

It's exciting to be part of it, so I appreciate that.

The data that we're collecting and the things that I'm seeing,

on steroids from my, uh, first time stepping on this ranch.

You've got a great team of good people here.

Everything you've been doing is data-driven.

The data will drive us to the conclusion.

So, keep me posted,

I-I want to stay involved as much as I can.

The-the answers are starting to come our way.

You know, we often speak of-of, uh, every investigation

as just raising more questions.

I actually feel like I'm starting to get some answers.

I truly do believe that what we are really revealing here

at Skinwalker Ranch is not just about Skinwalker Ranch,

but it is about the very nature of our reality.

This is a sobering effort

but it is truly exciting

and thank you all for engaging

and being part of this incredible journey.

So, we'll proceed with all resource.

All right, thanks.

Look forward to moving ahead, gentlemen.

Thanks, Brandon.

-Governor, thank you. -Thank you.

BRANDON: Absolutely.

THOMAS: The things we captured this year are beyond phenomenal.

I'm super excited and optimistic

that Skinwalker Ranch ultimately

may be the place where we start unlocking

some of the mysteries of the world around us.

There are big things coming for Skinwalker Ranch.

We're just getting started.

ERIK: What we're witnessing is classically impossible,

but that's dang fascinating.

This year we have seen many things

that are very hard for us to explain.

We don't know what we've witnessed.

So, I find this tantalizing.

We've heard that the ranch is an intelligent entity,

that it's home to a secret underground base

and that it might even be a gateway to other dimensions.

Well, we've documented scientific evidence

that supports each one of these legends.

All I know is that in order to find the truth,

we have a lot more work to do.

BRANDON: Our investigation at Skinwalker Ranch

attests to the reality of not only the phenomena,

but the fact that we are on to something.

We are dealing with powerful forces,

unknown forces.

And we are finally on the precipice

of getting the very answers

that we've been seeking for years.
