1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Crossing dimensions of time and space.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Technology beyond comprehension.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
They are watching.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
They are waiting.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000
They are already here.

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,000
I know what I saw is not from this Earth.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
It is just amazing.

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
The Earth is a space.

9
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
Deep in the heart of Texas,

10
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
the small town of Stephenville

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
is surrounded by wide open prairie,

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
longhorn cattle and big skies.

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,000
On January 8th, 2008,

14
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,000
local resident Steve Allen

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,000
gets together with friends Mike Odom

16
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,000
and Lance Jones to enjoy a clear, mild night.

17
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,000
It's been a very harsh, cold winter.

18
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,000
I talked to my friend Mike on the phone earlier

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000
and he says, come on over and we'll build a little campfire outside

20
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,000
and sit out and enjoy the sky.

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
Being a pilot, I look up at the skies quite a bit.

22
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000
I'm going to take a look at the sky.

23
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Now that's strange.

24
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
What the hell?

25
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Steve?

26
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
I was the one to first see it.

27
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
I'll check that out.

28
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,000
I look towards the east and I see some lights coming at us

29
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
at a very high rate of speed.

30
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,000
Some very bright, intense lights.

31
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
It looked like a magnesium flare.

32
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
It's unlike anything that I had ever seen.

33
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
What in the hell?

34
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Nobody wanted to say anything

35
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,000
but we was at kind of an awestruck on it.

36
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

37
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Being a pilot, first thing I thought of

38
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
is what kind of airplane was it.

39
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I fly that area quite a bit

40
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,000
and I'm familiar with how long it takes to get from point A to B.

41
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
I estimated the speed to be in the several thousand miles an hour area.

42
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,000
How something could move that fast

43
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,000
and not even produce air noise going across the surface.

44
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000
No sound whatsoever.

45
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,000
The lights come to a near dead stop over Stephenville.

46
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000
I didn't know if it was a war of the worlds or what.

47
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,000
And then the seven lights reconfigured to a vertical shape.

48
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,000
The light configuration in the rear was different.

49
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
It had seven lights in the rear blinking at no particular time.

50
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,000
They sat there for a moment or two

51
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,000
and then all of a sudden they burst into a flame.

52
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,000
The flame looked like it was like a quiet kind of a dirty oxygen flame

53
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,000
and then it just simply disappeared.

54
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
It didn't streak off or anything, it just disappeared.

55
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000
What the hell?

56
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000
I had never witnessed anything like this.

57
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Lance Jones jumped in his car and took off.

58
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000
He was alarmed and scared.

59
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,000
He didn't say goodbye, see you later.

60
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000
It's been real or anything, he just got the heck out of dodge.

61
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,000
Mike and I looked at each other and we said what in the world happened

62
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,000
it just made no sense to me.

63
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,000
We had to tell somebody so we went into his house

64
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
to tell his wife Claudette about what had happened.

65
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Claudette's reaction at first was disbelief

66
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,000
and that's when she says, oh you guys I want to call Lance

67
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000
and we invited her to go ahead and call Lance, you know, to verify our story.

68
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Why Lance has more credibility than Mike and I do, I don't know.

69
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Hello? Lance is gone.

70
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,000
And before anything was said, I think Lance told Claudette

71
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000
hurry up and run back outside, it's coming again.

72
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000
It's better be good.

73
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,000
It came by closer than the original time and lower as well.

74
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:32,000
This thing was up close and personal, it wasn't something streaking out across the universe, it was close to us.

75
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
And then all of a sudden two F-16s came by.

76
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Full after Burner had the flames hanging out the back of the jets in pursuit of it.

77
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000
We live in the close proximity of three different Air Force bases,

78
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:00,000
we never get any F-16s in the area at that altitude much less in pursuit of another aircraft.

79
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,000
It seemed like it was kind of keeping them in bay,

80
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000
like it could control at speed far greater than they could.

81
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
We watched it go off into the east until it just went out of sight.

82
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
I had never witnessed anything like this,

83
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,000
not in the remote possibility of anything like this.

84
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Why would our military be chasing something of our own product?

85
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Obviously they wouldn't, so questions was what's it doing here?

86
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,000
Why is it here and what do they want?

87
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Is it of danger to us?

88
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
I had many questions that I needed answers for.

89
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,000
I told Mike and Claudette when I left that night we're going to get to the bottom of it,

90
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,000
but I had an urgency to go home.

91
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:04,000
My first feeling was if it's the end of times I'd like to be at home and protect my house and my wife and be with loved ones.

92
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:12,000
I was still trying to process all we had seen and get it straight in my mind.

93
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,000
What's going on?

94
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,000
What's going on?

95
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000
What's that?

96
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,000
Me and the guys tonight we saw some pretty strange lights in the sky.

97
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,000
They were doing things I'd never seen anything do.

98
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,000
A couple of jets went after them but they couldn't catch them.

99
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:46,000
My wife could see that I was visibly shaken and knew I had actually seen something.

100
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,000
UFO?

101
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,000
She begged and pleaded with me to not tell anybody about it.

102
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Honey look you can't go around talking about UFOs okay?

103
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,000
What we saw was real and I'm going to find out exactly what it was.

104
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Well...

105
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,000
She didn't want me to speak about it because she'd think people would think we was crazy.

106
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,000
Of course being a typical male you got to talk about it you know and do exactly what your wife tells you not to do.

107
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:25,000
If I saw it by myself I might have not said anything but since there was three of us I thought well I've got to talk about it.

108
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,000
With the hopes that other people had seen it.

109
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,000
I got probably 30 minutes of sleep that night.

110
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:38,000
I didn't sleep very much at all trying to figure out what had happened to us.

111
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:47,000
My first phone call the next morning was to the airport here in Stephenville, Texas.

112
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,000
I'm a pilot and those guys at the airport they know who I am.

113
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,000
They know I may be a lot of things but I'm not a liar and don't make things up.

114
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,000
So they took interest to what I might have seen.

115
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:07,000
They called Fort Worth Tower where the radar is actually located at to see if there was anything unusual in the area.

116
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,000
They did try to find out and get me some answers but they found none.

117
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,000
That seemed terribly strange to me.

118
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:30,000
My next phone call was to the newspaper to see if they had anybody that might have witnessed it or reported it.

119
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:36,000
When I told the reporter what I saw she had not heard or seen anything of what we had seen.

120
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,000
She found some credibility to my story and that's when she decided she would take it and run with it.

121
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,000
A lot of people saw what we saw.

122
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,000
But quite a few people here don't like the line light or be out in public.

123
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Didn't want their names mentioned.

124
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Several of them I persuaded to go ahead and come forward.

125
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Since I'm here by myself you guys helped me out.

126
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,000
Sure enough one came to my aid. Thank goodness.

127
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:33,000
I called the newspaper here in town and I talked to the editor and I told her the story and she asked me if they could print an article.

128
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:39,000
And I said make sure you put my phone number in here just in case somebody else might have saw it. They can call me.

129
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
I probably talked to at least 60 people the first day.

130
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,000
I got all their names, their addresses, what they saw, when they saw it.

131
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
Tried to get as many people as possible.

132
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,000
Also I asked them would you be willing to come forward.

133
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Most are reluctant to go public but local county constable Leroy Gaten steps up.

134
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,000
I've been in law enforcement for 20 years now.

135
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,000
I am a constable and I'm elected by the people. I have a lot of credibility online here.

136
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,000
I'm not a constable.

137
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000
I'm a constable and I'm elected by the people.

138
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000
I have a lot of credibility online here.

139
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,000
I'm not a constable.

140
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,000
I'm not a constable.

141
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,000
I'm a constable.

142
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Was the mother enjoying her birthday?

143
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,000
Yeah, her face was huge on that one.

144
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,000
It was my wife's birthday.

145
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000
I had bought a cake. We'd cut for my wife.

146
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,000
What was that?

147
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,000
It was then when my boy pointed up to the sky and he said,

148
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Dad, look at those lights.

149
00:11:48,000 --> 00:12:03,760
I got a pair of binoculars and trying to get a better look of what it was that we were

150
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:09,640
seeing and I couldn't make anything out other than these bright, bluish, fluorescent looking

151
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,520
lights.

152
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,560
During this whole time I'm trying to watch him and my boy's, you know, he's a 10 year

153
00:12:15,560 --> 00:12:18,440
old, he's asking me questions, Dad is that a flying saucer?

154
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,440
What is that Dad?

155
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:20,440
You know, what do they do?

156
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:29,440
I know they're jets because I see them at the house all the time.

157
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,440
I hear them.

158
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,440
Who's that?

159
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,960
I just thought to myself, is it a part of an experiment?

160
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:36,960
What is this?

161
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,600
I mean everything's happening so quickly and I'm thinking to myself, 9 million things.

162
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:48,600
Is it something out of this world?

163
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,200
Is it military?

164
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:58,120
The local newspaper follows up on the story and contacts the Air Force.

165
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:03,640
They reported that they did not have any aircraft in the area and nothing was going on.

166
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,440
I found it quite alarming.

167
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:11,120
You know, I know what an F-16 looks like.

168
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,920
They flat out denied that they had military planes at night and I knew for a fact that

169
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:25,200
there was at least two at night because I saw them.

170
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,440
That obviously sends up a red flag to me.

171
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:33,720
What are they trying to hide?

172
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,680
I was in a quest for the truth.

173
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:41,640
Whatever it took, whether it was to make a commotion with the media or the public or

174
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:47,200
whatever, we was willing to do it.

175
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:52,800
Steve contacts the Mutual UFO Network, one of the oldest and largest UFO investigative

176
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,960
organizations in the United States.

177
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:02,840
MUFON sends director of research Robert Powell to Stephenville to investigate the case.

178
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:07,640
The first thing we tried to do was determine was this an airplane, was this someone with

179
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:12,520
his running lights on, was this a star, which has nothing to do with whether we're talking

180
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,280
about little green men or little gray guys.

181
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:21,520
We're talking about an event, an unidentified flying object that no one knows what it is,

182
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,440
but as a scientist, you must investigate it.

183
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:32,600
Within days, the investigation turns up 17 witnesses to corroborate Steve Allen's story.

184
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:38,240
Detective officials, other businessmen, law enforcement officers, a lot of different

185
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,960
witnesses.

186
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:47,240
What really made Stephenville such a unique UFO event was that not only did you have 17

187
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:53,960
witnesses, you had witnesses who saw at different times over a three and a half hour period

188
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,120
in over varied locations.

189
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,920
This wasn't a case of a one single instance.

190
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:08,440
That was extraordinary.

191
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:15,800
Then another credible witness comes forward to challenge the military's claim that nothing

192
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:26,200
unusual was flying in the Stephenville skies on the night of January 8th, 2008.

193
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:32,480
The U.S. military denies dispatching F-16s over Stephenville, Texas on the night of January

194
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,520
8th, 2008.

195
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:41,760
But Constable Leroy Gaten and local pilot Steve Allen witnessed fighter jets chasing

196
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,920
an unknown object, and they're not alone.

197
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:54,840
We had 17 witnesses who came to tell us about what happened.

198
00:15:54,840 --> 00:16:00,720
A few people did come forward as unlike anything this town or this area had ever seen.

199
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:07,760
And one reliable witness account stands above the rest.

200
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:13,640
The night of January 8th, one of my officers was in the downtown area near the E.R.A.

201
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,640
County Courthouse here in Stephenville.

202
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,840
And he said to me that he saw a large object.

203
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:26,200
The quote him, he thought it was an airplane that was going to crash.

204
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,000
He said he could see, they outlined the silhouette, and then he saw some lights.

205
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,960
It didn't take long to know it wasn't an airplane because he said it was horizontal and then

206
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:45,920
it stood up vertically close to the courthouse and it slowly moved towards the east sky.

207
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:51,000
They pointed his radar in that direction.

208
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,000
Wasn't very fast.

209
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:02,080
It was less than 20 miles an hour.

210
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:08,480
From my experience of flying, I keep up with the latest technology in the aircraft industry,

211
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,000
what their capabilities are.

212
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:16,760
Of course the government has the best of everything and it's pretty well known what's produced

213
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,040
and what they have.

214
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:25,320
They may have a secret, I don't think they have one of these though.

215
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:31,360
Aerospace engineer Dr. Wallace Fowler studies spacecraft design and flight testing.

216
00:17:31,360 --> 00:17:36,280
I have in the past held security clearances and I'm not about to say things that I shouldn't

217
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:41,040
be saying about things that I knew about back then, but I'm sure that there are things

218
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:48,360
out there that the military is doing that they're not telling us about.

219
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:52,480
The SR-71 for example was an unknown thing for years.

220
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,480
The F-117 was unknown for years.

221
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:59,480
There were these strange sightings at this strange airplane out in the Nevada desert.

222
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,480
Most probably somebody thought that was an alien spaceship, the way that thing looked.

223
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,480
I knew it was some events that we'd never witnessed before.

224
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:10,880
You didn't have to be a pilot.

225
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,600
The first grader could have told you what they saw with good accuracy.

226
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:20,120
Dozens of people in the North Texas town claim to have seen the UFO and now it's getting

227
00:18:20,120 --> 00:18:22,440
more wide attention.

228
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,520
More and more witnesses continue to go public.

229
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:32,480
We're approaching 100 people probably that have seen something in regard to this UFO.

230
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:39,720
Many credible witnesses and sightings, they're all reporting it in the same area.

231
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,480
The multiple reports set off a media frenzy.

232
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,960
New York people witnessed what they say were the mysterious lights in the sky in the E-Rab

233
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,480
County town of Stephenville.

234
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:57,240
And under the glare of the media, the military releases some new information.

235
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:03,480
And the military finally released a report saying that they did in fact have 10 F-16s

236
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,480
in the area.

237
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,160
And I found that to be quite disturbing.

238
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,960
I just kind of felt betrayed.

239
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,800
Why did they wait so long to come out?

240
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,240
Obviously they were trying to hide something or cover something up.

241
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,360
If it's something that they're working for a national defense, certainly they don't

242
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,080
need to tell me or anyone else.

243
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,960
All they would have to do is say it's one of ours goodbye into the story.

244
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:38,720
But the official response to UFO evidence has been consistent across the U.S. government

245
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:39,720
for decades.

246
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:45,560
Investigative journalist Leslie Kane has spent the last 10 years documenting UFO sightings

247
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:46,960
around the world.

248
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:51,800
In the early 1950s, the Air Force set up a program called Project Blue Book.

249
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:58,920
And the purpose of that program was to receive reports on UFO sightings from the public.

250
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:05,080
Project Blue Book was very good at ridiculing people, or at least of issuing explanations

251
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,880
for cases that were ludicrous.

252
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:14,400
They were basically a public relations operation for the Air Force to minimize the mysterious

253
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:19,280
aspect of UFOs.

254
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:24,360
The military shut down Project Blue Book in 1970.

255
00:20:24,360 --> 00:20:29,440
In the case of Stevenville, the Air Force claims witnesses were tricked by an optical

256
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,240
illusion.

257
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,320
They said it was a reflection off of a high altitude jet airliner.

258
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,800
Very well could have been a reflection off of my shiny white ass is what it might have

259
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,280
been.

260
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,480
Another military explanation is lenticular clouds.

261
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,960
Military lens shaped clouds that form at high altitude.

262
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:56,600
These don't travel with two F-16s chasing them, so that was just totally absurd.

263
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,840
Mufon investigator Robert Powell presses the Air Force for answers.

264
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:07,680
No longer denying the presence of the F-16s, what else does the military know?

265
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,240
My first reaction was I need to get radar information.

266
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:17,000
So I sent freedom of information requests to every military base within 70 miles of

267
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,280
Stevenville.

268
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:27,280
In every case with military, the response was we have no information responsive to your

269
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,000
request.

270
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,960
Now what does that mean?

271
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,320
It's not even a yes or a no.

272
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:39,880
My immediate thought was I wonder can I get radar information from the FAA and try to

273
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:44,160
verify what these witnesses have seen?

274
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:49,160
The civilian federal aviation administration releases full radar reports for the night of

275
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,520
January 8th, 2008 from an airport near Stevenville.

276
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:58,440
I don't think they knew what they were giving it for, so I think we snuck in and got it

277
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:03,080
without them knowing what we were doing.

278
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:08,760
The radar data is a play by play of the activity in the sky on the night of the mass sighting.

279
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:18,200
This is a great chance to see if I can corroborate what these witnesses saw.

280
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,960
A person might lie to you with the radar data won't.

281
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,400
Powell begins by identifying the obvious.

282
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,880
You can see commercial craft on the radar returns.

283
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,280
Most of them were at high altitude.

284
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:35,720
They were either descending or ascending out of the DFW at Fort Worth airspace.

285
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,960
Next the data confirms the military's recent admission.

286
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:45,520
The radar data did in fact show that there was 10 F-16s in the area.

287
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:50,720
Then the radar reveals something more.

288
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:58,440
During the time period of 6 p.m. to 9 30 p.m. we picked up a total of three unusual objects

289
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:04,360
that moved through the Stevenville area without transponders.

290
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:10,400
Powell knows the U.S. government requires all aircraft to use transponders.

291
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:15,840
The transponder is very similar to a GPS system and it's basically just a radio signal going

292
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,400
back to the radar station.

293
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:24,200
All three of those objects did not have a transponder and all three were objects in the

294
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:29,280
same area as the witnesses.

295
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:34,320
Then the data uncovers a possible target.

296
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:49,040
Commander I think you should look at this.

297
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:55,960
We have an unidentified aircraft approaching prohibited area P-49 or Crawford, Texas.

298
00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:00,520
One craft without a transponder was headed straight into one of North America's most

299
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,760
heavily guarded no-fly zones.

300
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,520
One of the items that we saw on the radar was traveling directly towards Crawford Ranch.

301
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,040
It was traveling the straight line.

302
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:15,400
We had over 140 radar hits on that object.

303
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:20,280
Crawford Ranch is referred to as the Western White House.

304
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:31,120
In the name of the President of the United States, George W. Bush.

305
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:38,680
On the same night witnesses report seeing a UFO fly over Stevenville, Texas, radar data

306
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:45,600
reveals 10 F-16 fighter jets and a mysterious craft bearing down on the no-fly zone over

307
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,920
Crawford Ranch.

308
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,360
Crawford Ranch is where George W. Bush, our ex-president, lives.

309
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:57,200
It's east of here about 60 miles.

310
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,960
There's a no-fly zone of three miles in every direction around it, even if the President

311
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,320
is not there.

312
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:10,520
To break that no-fly zone is a series of events.

313
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,640
This would be the ultimate national security compromise.

314
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:20,360
If a pilot flies through that area, they'll either force you down or they'll shoot you down.

315
00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:26,880
This object that's moving towards the Western White House, and we have F-16s within 30,

316
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:32,920
35 miles of where this unknown object is, but on radar you can see that none of the

317
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,840
F-16s react.

318
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:40,160
And as this object descends, suddenly it just moves perpendicular to high-rated speed and

319
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,280
in one to two seconds it's gone.

320
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:48,440
If the F-16s weren't chasing the strange object, was the Air Force escorting one of

321
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,200
its own top-secret aircraft?

322
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:57,040
In an instant populated area, why would they have it out?

323
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:02,280
It could be in the desert where it wouldn't be seen, you know, why have it in this area?

324
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:07,000
If this was a military aircraft and they'd flown it over civilian space, that would

325
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,080
be a huge military blunder.

326
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:16,200
Hoping to learn more about this strange object, Steve Allen and Robert Powell return to the

327
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,120
radar evidence.

328
00:26:19,120 --> 00:26:23,200
To me the speed was a very critical thing.

329
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,480
Radar sweeps every 10 seconds.

330
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:30,600
So once I know where this object is here, where it's at 10 seconds later, 10 seconds

331
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:36,240
later it's just a question of doing some quick math to calculate how far did it move over

332
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,000
the course of 10 to 20 seconds.

333
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:45,880
What I concluded was the object accelerated to close to 1900 miles per hour and continued

334
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,880
on its way.

335
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,960
Next, Powell works to determine the object's size.

336
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:58,960
I wasn't able to do it with the radar information because what the FAA collects does not tell

337
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,560
you anything about size.

338
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:08,960
But there was one witness who claimed to have some evidence that we could utilize.

339
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:15,320
After my story went public, I had another officer that works with us that I've known

340
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,640
on my life.

341
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:26,720
And he told me that the night of January the 8th, he saw, I guess we need to say, a

342
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:27,720
craft.

343
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:34,840
He said it was floating near the ground.

344
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:40,400
He said it was very long, very thin, and it had a hub, a bubble.

345
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:47,120
He said it was very large.

346
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:51,920
He described an object, almost a city block in size.

347
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,280
He said it was something that was very big.

348
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,640
It was something that was doing very strange things and was traveling at a high rate of

349
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,640
speed.

350
00:27:58,640 --> 00:27:59,640
I trust him with my life.

351
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,200
He has no reason to lie.

352
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,000
I tried to analyze the size of this craft through multiple witnesses.

353
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:12,640
And I would take the witness's visual description, and then I would look at where the object

354
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,040
was based on the radar information.

355
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:21,560
Based on that, I could estimate a size of the object using trigonometry.

356
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,600
The minimum size of this object was at least an eighth of a mile to a quarter of a mile

357
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,200
in size.

358
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,920
Think about something with a radius of two football fields.

359
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,920
You take a football field and spin it around one goal post, and then you've got something

360
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,240
about that size.

361
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:48,200
The question is, are there man-made aircraft with such amazing characteristics?

362
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,760
The SR-71 flew 2100 miles an hour.

363
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,960
The SR-71 is totally capable of reaching that kind of speeds.

364
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,840
The X-15 flew 6000 miles an hour.

365
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:06,920
The space shuttle flew 17,500 miles an hour or faster.

366
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:12,040
So there are vehicles that we have built that can fly a lot faster than that.

367
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:17,400
But in order to do what has been reported, a vehicle would have to have, number one,

368
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,360
a lot of power.

369
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,840
Thrust is the huge thing.

370
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:26,520
You'd have to be able to have a lot of thrust for a vehicle that's 600 feet long or wide

371
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,880
to go 1900 miles an hour.

372
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:35,000
Also the total silence is what was very intriguing, to have something could move that fast and

373
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,680
not even produce air noise going across the surface.

374
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,440
It was just totally silent where we was at.

375
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:48,760
When a vehicle gets up to the speed of sound, Mach 1, what happens is a shock wave forms

376
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:49,760
at the bow of the vehicle.

377
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:57,320
And this shock wave is perceived by us humans as a sonic boom.

378
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:02,200
Anything traveling at faster than speed of sound, especially at a low level, you would

379
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,520
hear it.

380
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,520
Someone would have heard the sonic booms.

381
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:10,520
But the vehicle itself is reported to be totally silent.

382
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:28,360
Professor of physics and astronomy, John Willis studies the vast distances of outer space.

383
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:33,320
If you had this imaginary spaceship that could travel close to the speed of light, it would

384
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:37,080
take you four years to get to the nearest stars.

385
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:42,200
If you were traveling at the much lower speeds that we can achieve with rockets on Earth,

386
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,640
you would be looking at many thousands of years.

387
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:51,960
It's possible, but it would take many times longer than a single human generation.

388
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:57,400
As a human race, we haven't yet thought about the challenge of taking that amount of time

389
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:04,960
to transport humans across that kind of distance.

390
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:10,000
We can make some guesses about how many planets might host life.

391
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:15,240
But to actually predict when will we make contact with an alien civilization, most scientists

392
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,480
aren't willing to make that speculation.

393
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:27,440
I feel like whatever we saw is not from this Earth due to the fact of its flight capability

394
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:33,640
is the speed it was traveling, it being able to fly silently.

395
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:39,480
The unknown is very intriguing and leaves a lot of questions.

396
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:46,240
I checked the internet and a newspaper article shows that in like 1890 or 1891, in fact there

397
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:57,680
had been some sightings previously.

398
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:02,540
There was a gentleman near the cotton compress over there that had witnessed a flying object

399
00:32:02,540 --> 00:32:09,080
of some sort.

400
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:17,680
And it burst into flames and he could describe it as a bale of cotton on fire.

401
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:22,360
Now I've seen cotton burning, it's the same color of what I did witness so his description

402
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:27,200
was just dead on as far as the color of the flame.

403
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:32,320
What it tells me is there has been multiple sightings around here, that's not the only

404
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:39,640
sighting, so whatever it is I feel like it comes and goes from this area.

405
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:45,240
Two weeks after the sighting, Constable Leroy Gaten routinely patrols the streets of Stephen

406
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:50,240
ville.

407
00:32:50,240 --> 00:33:00,080
The witness count continues to rise and over 100 people report seeing an unidentified flying

408
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,840
object in the Stephenville skies on January 8th, 2008.

409
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:11,280
FAA radar confirms the presence of 10 F-16 jets and a massive object in the area that

410
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:12,840
night.

411
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:18,520
But the military denies any knowledge of the mysterious craft.

412
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:24,640
Then two weeks after the mass sighting, Constable Leroy Gaten responds to a suspicious call in

413
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:31,920
downtown Stephenville.

414
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:37,160
It was late, probably three o'clock in the morning, when over the radio I hear an alarm

415
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,880
call come in.

416
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,960
There was a business where an alarm was going off after hours.

417
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,520
And being that I was close by I thought hey I'll just stop and wait for the backup to

418
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:56,680
come and we'll check out the building.

419
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,640
Something caught my attention up in the sky.

420
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:05,480
It was changing color from red, blue, possibly green.

421
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:13,800
This time Gaten goes after hard evidence of the UFO.

422
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,520
The cameras are not made for pointing up in the sky.

423
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,800
They're made of pointing at cars, license plates.

424
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,920
I was able to focus on this object and started recording.

425
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,920
I could see it on a monitor in my car.

426
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:35,560
And it was a large orb that seemed to be floating, not like your typical star, much larger.

427
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:40,000
It was moving from east to west slowly.

428
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,680
And I just didn't know what it was.

429
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:46,800
It looked to be somewhat pulsating.

430
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:52,400
It appeared to be almost hollow.

431
00:34:52,400 --> 00:35:02,040
But I sat there and I videotaped it for 15, 20 minutes.

432
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:07,120
The lights didn't leave a tail because they took off so fast.

433
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,840
I went home and looked at the video.

434
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:15,800
And what was really strange, it had a lot of static interference.

435
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,400
For some strange reason, I just wasn't a clear video.

436
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:25,080
That did also make front page headlines in the area.

437
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:30,880
In spite of the hazy image, the latest sighting brings a new sense of purpose to the investigation.

438
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,920
We was making progress.

439
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,880
Everybody knew what they saw.

440
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,200
During the time, everybody had their own assignment.

441
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,760
Robert was doing his radar analysis.

442
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,720
I was still taking a lot of testimony, a lot of what people saw.

443
00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:50,520
So we was busy just trying to figure out what happened.

444
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:55,840
But the military simply tried to explain it away.

445
00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:01,920
They've got a smear campaign, a cover-up campaign to discredit whatever was seen.

446
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,560
The UFO phenomena is something that the U.S. government cannot explain.

447
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,080
I believe they know it exists, but they can't explain it.

448
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,120
And it's a monkey they don't want on their back.

449
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,880
We were just almost ridiculed to death about what happened.

450
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:18,320
They never asked what we saw.

451
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,760
They was just too busy trying to explain it away.

452
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:29,280
The question of a UFO cover-up by the U.S. government is a very tricky and difficult question to deal with.

453
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,360
If there's an event that happens that's widely reported and there are numerous witnesses,

454
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:38,560
and we're very clear about what happened, the U.S. government will not want to be involved.

455
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:44,600
It's almost like they want to hide something that everybody knows could happen.

456
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:50,240
There are probably classified documents still being withheld that deal with the UFO subject.

457
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:56,160
So the bottom line is the U.S. government does not reveal everything it knows.

458
00:36:56,240 --> 00:37:00,640
Steve Allen refuses to give up his quest for the truth.

459
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:05,440
His perseverance pays off when he receives a startling phone call.

460
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:11,040
The person on the other end of the line is none other than NASA astronaut Edgar Dean Mitchell.

461
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,040
We talked for quite some time, probably an hour, hour and a half on the phone.

462
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:20,240
I told him what all I had seen. He actually knew what I was talking about.

463
00:37:20,240 --> 00:37:24,720
Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell is an American hero.

464
00:37:24,720 --> 00:37:27,360
He was the sixth man to walk on the moon.

465
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:31,440
And for many years he has been very outspoken about the UFO subject.

466
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:37,200
He's interested in it, has done internal investigations, private investigations with people at high levels.

467
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:46,400
He had quite a few interesting stories to tell me about what NASA wants them to say

468
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:51,920
and what they don't want them to say. He relayed some facts about Buzz Aldrin being the first people

469
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:57,520
on the moon that something had landed within a mile of Buzz.

470
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:04,320
He told Houston about it. Houston instructed them, said, don't look at it, don't look that way,

471
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:09,520
have no contact with it, carry on with your mission. Disregard whatever was over there.

472
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:15,120
And what about Mitchell's own Apollo mission in 1971?

473
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,360
He has seen craft while he was out in space.

474
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:24,240
He saw different things that definitely wasn't stars or anything. He saw a UFO.

475
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:30,960
Dr. Mitchell is very credible. NASA doesn't control him anymore or the government, you know,

476
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,880
so he really doesn't give a darn. He'll just tell you what he saw, you know.

477
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:42,480
I feel like whatever he says is the truth. I knew what my story was. That was the most important thing.

478
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:50,240
The big surprise was later on is when the report came out and then the other contained.

479
00:38:52,240 --> 00:38:56,960
The radar data did in fact show something, unlike anything that I had ever seen.

480
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,840
Total surprise, a shock, actually.

481
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:10,400
Since Steve Allen first reported seeing a UFO over Stephenville, Texas on the night of January 8th,

482
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:17,760
2008, more than 100 witnesses come forward to corroborate his account. But the question remains,

483
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:26,320
what was in the sky that night? After months of compiling eyewitness testimony and analyzing

484
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:32,080
radar returns, both the data and the witness accounts reveal a crucial anomaly.

485
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:41,680
The speed was a very critical thing. Very important that something this large can fly at that speed

486
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:49,440
and come to a stop, go back the other way, and over accelerate to F-16s. Very unusual.

487
00:39:49,440 --> 00:40:02,400
The object, whatever it was, went from basically standing still to 1900 miles an hour in about two seconds.

488
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:12,080
Anything that could fly that fast and then come to a complete stop that quick over such a short

489
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,720
area, you know, that's a lot of G-force.

490
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:25,120
The concept of G-force is part of Newton's law of gravity, a law that here on earth at least can't be broken.

491
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:34,400
G-force is basically an acceleration phenomenon. If you're in an airplane that pulls, quote,

492
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:40,000
two Gs, at that point the force on your bottom pushing up on you is twice your weight.

493
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:46,480
If it's three Gs, it's three times your weight. In an F-16, for example, they can stand nine Gs

494
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:53,360
fairly easily. They're usually blackout at 10 Gs. Blood comes out of your head and basically you're no

495
00:40:53,360 --> 00:41:01,120
longer in control of the aircraft. I don't know of anything that's 600 feet across that can hover,

496
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:08,640
that can go 1900 miles an hour in two seconds and then stop again. I know of nothing that we know of

497
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:16,800
they can do that. If you do the calculations roughly that's about 43 Gs. Within seconds you'd kill any

498
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:22,160
human being. What I finally concluded when we completed the Steed andville report was that

499
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:28,960
whatever caused this was not caused by the U.S. Air Force. It doesn't mean that that was an

500
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:34,800
extraterrestrial object. No one can prove what happened in Steed andville was an extraterrestrial

501
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:42,160
object. However, what I can say is that it was not anything that we manufactured on Earth.

502
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:50,480
When the report came out I felt good about it. It did tell exactly what we saw, you know,

503
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,120
exact location, exact times, everything was there.

504
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,840
And I knew that I had seen something strange, but because of some people just maybe not believing

505
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,520
it, I somewhat felt vindicated because the evidence was there.

506
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:13,680
We ran our analysis by three different FAA air traffic controllers. We asked them,

507
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:18,160
please look at this, can you find an error in the report? And none of those three could find an

508
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:26,480
error in our report. As it turns out Powell's report may have been too good. Taking a cue from

509
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:32,400
the U.S. military, the FAA tightens their policy surrounding access to radar data information.

510
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:40,400
After our Steed andville report, the next time I requested radar information from the FAA using

511
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:47,360
the Freedom of Information Act request, they refused to give me the same type of radar information,

512
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:52,720
stating that they felt it was a threat to the national airspace for me to have that information.

513
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:58,160
They may have accidentally sent us all that data and we compiled it and sure enough there it was,

514
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:02,720
it substantiated what we saw. I don't think they want to make that mistake again.

515
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:11,280
For its part, the military continues to deny that any unknown object ever passed through

516
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:18,880
Steed andville airspace. 2008, more than nine months after the first UFO sighting,

517
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:24,400
a crowd of Friday night football fans packed the stands of the local area high school.

518
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:36,000
They was having a football game and whatever it was, the UFO or the craft pulled up over the

519
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:43,280
stadium. The craft came directly overhead, completely stopped the football game.

520
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:52,160
The players stopped first and the refs was busy refing the game and then they watched the players

521
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:56,800
all looking up. Everybody in the stands saw it, the football players saw it, the referees saw it.

522
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:05,840
Hundreds if not a thousand people seeing the same thing. This is a real situation. It's not some

523
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:18,000
kind of hallucination. Since January the 8th in these other events, my life has changed.

524
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:26,800
My beliefs have changed. Now I'm open to the possibility that there is life beyond our earth

525
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:33,840
and I hope that before I leave this great earth that I have an answer of what it was that I saw.

526
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:39,920
I knew it was a life altering experience. I knew it was something that not many people

527
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:45,840
had the pleasure of witnessing that I was blessed being able to see it.

528
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:52,320
I believe in life in other universities or galaxies or solar systems. You'd have to be very

529
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:59,920
narrow-minded to think that we're only people out there. Steve Allen's quest for the truth

530
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:07,040
isn't over. I sincerely hope I get to see it again. I want to know what it is.

531
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:19,520
I look up at the skies quite a bit now.
