1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
NASA announces its investigating UFOs.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:07,000
But is it already hiding a truth too terrifying to reveal?

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
Edgar Mitchell, Gordon Cooper, and Jim McVivitt all said that they saw UFOs while they were in space.

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,000
A lot of the astronauts have signed papers not to talk. They have their retirements taken away.

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
They're told to keep it quiet. And they're good Americans too.

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
I mean, it comes under the guise of national security.

7
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:32,000
The world famous Tic Tac. A spacecraft or a time machine from the future.

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:42,000
The fact that we see the Tic Tac form in 1960, 2004, 2014, 2015 indicates that it may be the same machine coming from the same point in time.

9
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,000
And a woman is filmed as she seems to teleport from her bed at 3 a.m.

10
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,000
And some believe that this is the time that aliens deliberately choose to interact with us.

11
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:01,000
It's when the world is at its quietest and it's when we are at our most vulnerable.

12
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:11,000
UFOs, once the staff of science fiction, now caught on camera, finally forcing governments to reveal what they know.

13
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,000
UAPs aren't unexplained, but they are real.

14
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:23,000
Many of these phenomena have been cited in training languages. We're very much concerned about safety of flight.

15
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:30,000
So let's just speculate for one moment that these things, whatever they are, are here to do not very good things.

16
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Impossible engineering. Terrifying encounters. Sinister cover-ups.

17
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,000
This is evidence of the unexplained.

18
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,880
The

19
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:09,000
February 2020. A mysterious conical object the size of a bus is filmed keeping pace with the International Space Station for 20 minutes.

20
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:19,000
But NASA officials claim it is simply space junk, even though finally it seems to power away under its own control.

21
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:29,000
Two years later on the 9th of June 2022, NASA, which has always dismissed talk of UFOs, seems to change its tune.

22
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Welcome to today's media teleconference on a new independent scientific study that NASA's commissioning on unidentified aerial phenomena.

23
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:47,000
They're the observations of events in the sky that cannot be identified as aircraft or as natural phenomena.

24
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:53,000
The North American Space Agency is now going to start studying them.

25
00:02:54,000 --> 00:03:02,000
I want to first say that of course part of our task at NASA, given to us by Congress, is not only to do

26
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,000
fundamental research in the skies and so forth, but as part of that also to find life elsewhere.

27
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,000
This excited journalist at the press conference asked the big question.

28
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:19,000
What's the budget NASA's allocated for this and where is the funding coming from to support the study today?

29
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:26,000
How much of the agency's $24 billion budget is going to be allocated to this new work?

30
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:35,000
To speak about budget, so on budget, we would estimate it anywhere between a few tens of thousands of dollars, certainly no more than a hundred k.

31
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:44,000
$100,000 to study the world-changing possibility that a non-human intelligence is at work in the space around our planet.

32
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,000
That's just above the average annual salary of one NASA worker.

33
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Why does it seem like NASA is putting such a small percentage of its huge budget towards studying unidentified aerial phenomenon?

34
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:08,000
The tiny budget makes me wonder if NASA doesn't really value the problem enough to put the resources behind it that one would think they ought to.

35
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Many of NASA's former workers claim the organization has deliberately kept the truth about UFOs from the public for decades.

36
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,000
My name is Donna Hare. During the 70s and 71, I worked in the building 8 of NASA.

37
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Donna Hare, now an award-winning illustrator, says she was a photographic technician at a private laboratory contracted by NASA in the 1970s.

38
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,000
I walked into a restricted area, which was not my company. It was the NASA photo lab.

39
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:50,000
One of the gentlemen I had been friends with, he pointed my attention to one panel of a mosaic, which are several panels put together to form a larger picture.

40
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:56,000
And these were either, I believe they were satellite pictures. I'm not sure. There were aerial looking down.

41
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:03,000
And I said, this is really interesting. He explained everything. And then he, with a smile on his face, he said, look over there.

42
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:12,000
And I looked and in one of the photo panels, I saw a round white dot. And at the time it was very crisp, very sharp lines on it.

43
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:25,000
And I said to him, what is that? Is that a dot on the emulsion? And then he's grinning and he says, dots on the emulsion don't leave round shadows on the ground.

44
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:34,000
She was told that space photographs were being doctored by NASA to hide UFOs before being released.

45
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:41,000
And I said, is this a UFO? And he's smiling at me and he says, I can't tell you that.

46
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:49,000
So I said, what are you going to do with this information? And he said, well, we always have to airbrush them out before we sell them to the public.

47
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,000
And I was just amazed that they had a protocol in place for getting rid of UFO pictures.

48
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:07,000
She claims another NASA employee was forced by military personnel to burn a sheaf of UFO photographs and another was hit with a rifle butt when he tried to take a look.

49
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:16,000
I started asking questions. Alone, they would tell me things and then swear if I ever said they said it, they would say I was lying.

50
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000
One gentleman that I knew very well was in quarantine with some of the astronauts.

51
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:28,000
He said just about every one of them has seen things when they went to the moon that were, in fact, one said that they were there.

52
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Craft were on the moon at that time.

53
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Even more astonishingly, she says she was told that back in 1969, during the historic moon landings, a trio of UFOs followed the astronauts as they explored the surface of the moon.

54
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:54,000
And this was relayed to her by an unnamed colleague who had been working with the astronauts during that quarantine period.

55
00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:04,000
She says that NASA codenamed this trio of UFOs Santa Claus before then airbrushing them from all released images.

56
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:12,000
Donna also claimed that NASA employees who wanted to speak out were threatened with gagging orders and told that they would lose their pensions.

57
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000
They've signed papers not to talk. They have their retirements taken away.

58
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,000
A lot of the astronauts are told to keep it quiet and they're good Americans too.

59
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,000
I mean, it comes under the guise of national security.

60
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:36,000
It's a fantastical story, but her claims are echoed by photographic technician, Sergeant Carl Wolf, who was working at tactical air command at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia in the 1960s.

61
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:44,000
I was in the United States Air Force from 1964 until 1968.

62
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:55,000
He says he was asked to help out at the next door national security agency, the NSA, who were bringing in information from the lunar orbiter.

63
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:03,000
There, he says he was told by an NSA technician that they had found a base on the dark side of the moon.

64
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:10,000
We walked over to one side of the lab and he said, by the way, we've discovered a base on the back side of the moon.

65
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,000
I said, who's? What do you mean, who's?

66
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:21,000
And then he pulled out one of these mosaics and showed this base, which had geometric shapes.

67
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:26,000
There were towers. There were spherical buildings.

68
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:33,000
There were very tall towers and things that looked somewhat like radar dishes, but they were large structures.

69
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,000
I realized that he was telling me this information because he didn't have anybody else to talk to.

70
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:44,000
And he had a high level security clearance, obviously, but he couldn't share that information with anybody else.

71
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,000
He was very distressed and he needed to discuss it with somebody.

72
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:56,000
More than 600 humans have been into space since the first manned space flight in 1961.

73
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,000
And many of these astronauts have returned with claims that we are not alone.

74
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Edgar Mitchell, Gordon Cooper and Jim McDivitt all said that they saw UFOs while they were in space.

75
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Gordon Cooper was a pioneering astronaut, engineer and test pilot who joined the US Air Force in 1949

76
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:25,000
and who, in 1963, made the longest space flight in history, orbiting the Earth 22 times in a Mercury space capsule.

77
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Gordon Cooper says that his birth sighting was in 1951, but years later he came across another UFO.

78
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:45,000
This encounter wasn't in space, but at Edwards Air Force Base in California in 1957, when Cooper was a supersonic test pilot.

79
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:53,000
What he says is, I saw the vehicle set down, put down its landing gear and land, and then when we approached filming it,

80
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:59,000
it took off again at a very great rate of speed. And was it similar to what you saw in 1951?

81
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,000
He's asked and he goes, yes, it was. It was a kind of double saucer.

82
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:08,000
And this is a very good shape, he says, for traveling through Earth's atmosphere.

83
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:17,000
And even modern day astronauts are starting to come forward and say there is more to the UFO phenomenon than had previously been acknowledged.

84
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:23,000
So on July the 13th, 2022, you have British astronaut Tim Peake going on air onto Good Morning Britain.

85
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:28,000
He actually says, I think it's a really good thing that these discussions are being had.

86
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:33,000
And he also says, I don't think it's a development of any state nation, not at all.

87
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:40,000
And he also adds, it does seem extraordinary what these machines are capable of. There is no explanation for it.

88
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:49,000
And now NASA's leader, former astronaut Bill Nelson says he believes in the possibility of advanced extraterrestrials.

89
00:10:49,000 --> 00:11:01,000
When asked what they could be, Nelson replies, who am I to say that planet Earth is the only location of a life form that is as civilized and organized as ours is?

90
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Now that seems to be a very popular way that NASA employees have of framing the narrative.

91
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:14,000
In an interview with The Guardian newspaper in December 2021, Nelson said, do I think there's life in the universe?

92
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:22,000
The answer is clearly I do and we're searching for it. Nelson continued, you've seen those films that have now been made public.

93
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:27,000
They, talking about the Navy pilots, know they saw something.

94
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:34,000
Is it an adversary on Earth that has this technology? I hope not.

95
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Perhaps they are spending just $100,000 on the new study because they already know the outcome.

96
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:49,000
Is this just a way of NASA bringing the public up to speed on something that they've known about for some time?

97
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,000
And if that is the case, well, what is it they know?

98
00:11:53,000 --> 00:12:02,000
NASA officials say that they initially want to find out which of these observations are natural phenomena so they can ensure the safety of US aircraft.

99
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:12,000
And crucially, NASA has also said that the results will be shared publicly as part of NASA's commitment to scientific integrity and openness.

100
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Could this mean that for the first time, the full, unexplogated files of UFO sightings by NASA astronauts could be made available?

101
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:30,000
If the legendary space agency opens its vaults and tells us what it knows, it may really be one giant leap for mankind.

102
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:39,000
It does seem that there is a huge amount of information from NASA astronauts, whether in space or on Earth.

103
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:49,000
So at what points does NASA come clean and tell us what's been seen on these missions? And what on Earth does it all mean?

104
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:58,000
It's the most famous UFO encounter of the 21st century.

105
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,000
When will it come to NASA?

106
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,000
I don't know, I'll think, dude.

107
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000
Well, I think it's a huge thing.

108
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:16,000
But did US naval pilots of the coast of California on November the 14th, 2004 encounter alien spaceships or something else entirely?

109
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,000
Perhaps a time machine.

110
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:37,000
The pilots were flying F-18 fighter jets, super hornets based on board USS Nimitz, an aircraft carrier of the coast of San Diego.

111
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:51,000
On November the 14th, they detect one of these anomalous aerial vehicles and they track it descending from 80,000 feet to 20,000 feet in less than a second.

112
00:13:52,000 --> 00:14:01,000
The spy 1 radar only goes up to about 80,000 feet. Anything past that, it loses fidelity. So these things could have actually been coming in from low Earth orbit.

113
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:09,000
David Fraver and Lieutenant Alex Dietrich were both flying with a weapon systems officer in the back seat.

114
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Now what they see looks like a giant tic-tac. It's about 40 feet long and its movements are really quite erratic.

115
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:29,000
And what's strangest of all is that the pilots and the systems officers can't see what is making this object fly.

116
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:36,000
There is no obvious line of propulsion or wings or anything like that.

117
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Navy commander David Fraver attempts to get closer to the object.

118
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:55,000
He kind of circles downwards towards it and he says that that's when the tic-tac, if you like, suddenly totally changes both position and direction.

119
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:07,000
The most advanced human technology cannot even begin to complete such a fast and total shift in movement.

120
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:20,000
What's more alarming still, according to Fraver, is that the tic-tac starts to climb up towards him and he says it was if it was mimicking his movements.

121
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Oh my gosh!

122
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,000
They're going against the wind. The wind's 100.

123
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:38,000
The so-called tic-tac comes so close to Fraver, he says he thought it was preparing to engage.

124
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Then, all at once, the object vanished.

125
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:54,000
This encounter changed the whole conversation about UFOs. But had this particular craft turned up 50 years previously?

126
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:08,000
On April the 24th 1964, outside Sorocco, New Mexico, police officer Lonnie Zamora sees a strange, very bright light off the desert road. He goes to investigate.

127
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:17,000
What Zamora claims is that he sees this oval object and it looked like it was made out of aluminium or some kind of other metal.

128
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:30,000
It's uncannily similar in design to the so-called tic-tac craft seen by the Navy pilots in 2004 and this time occupants of the vehicle allegedly emerge.

129
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Now what he claims is that he sees these two humanoid figures disappear behind the oval object and they were small apparently, so he thought they're either short adults or tall children and they were dressed in white overalls.

130
00:16:46,000 --> 00:17:05,000
Then Zamora describes a loud sound coming from the oval object. It rose to hover about 20 to 30 feet in the air and Zamora says it hung there noiselessly for a while before it moved off, also without any noise.

131
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:18,000
In science fiction the occupants of UFOs are depicted as visitors from other worlds, but the nearest star known to have a planet is Proxima Centauri over four light years away.

132
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:32,000
It would take 73,000 years to reach Earth by conventional spacecraft. The Pentagon is considering a more exotic possibility that UFOs are actually travellers in time.

133
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:41,000
When we talk about UAPs and UFOs and time travellers and all that, we have to understand that we really don't understand time very well ourselves.

134
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:50,000
In his theory of relativity, Einstein theorized that the universe has four dimensions. The first three are spatial and the fourth of course is time.

135
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:58,000
And together they form space-time with the space-time continuum which actually defines all our physical reality.

136
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:09,000
Albert Einstein believed that our physical reality might have holes in it. Passage weighs through time that with advanced technology it might be possible to access.

137
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:26,000
Many scientists and astronomers believe that wormholes are all around us. They're very, very tiny. Nothing is actually flat or solid. If you look very closely at anything you'll see tiny holes or wrinkles.

138
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Take something as smooth and solid looking as a pool ball. If you look closely enough you'll see there are holes. It's easy for us to see this in the first three dimensions.

139
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:47,000
But it's true of the fourth as well. There are holes and wrinkles in time.

140
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:57,000
If this is how UFOs are travelling, it could explain the seemingly bizarre movements of the craft seen by Zamora and the pilots of the Nimitz.

141
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:10,000
This would explain the tic-tac's ability to appear and disappear both from sight and radar. They are entering and exiting our dimension, not moving within it.

142
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Professor Michael P. Masters of Montana University believes these craft might have the ability to travel through time.

143
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:27,000
One indication of these craft are time machines is that we see the same versions of them in different periods.

144
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:39,000
The fact that we see the tic-tac form in 1960, 2004, 2014, 2015 indicates that it may be the same machine coming from the same point in time.

145
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:54,000
And he has concluded that accounts of occupants add weight to this theory. Masters has studied the description of the humanoids given by Lonnie Zamora and others who have claimed to witness occupants in or around a UFO.

146
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:04,000
So one of the traits that characterizes human evolution is we have mniotini or pedomorphosis, where you have the retention of juvenileized traits into adulthood.

147
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:12,000
So for instance, we look more like the childlike form of chimpanzees, which are closest living relative on this planet.

148
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:23,000
And what's interesting is very commonly these UFO-occupied instance visitors are described as being very childlike or having traits that have been compared to a fetus.

149
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:31,000
These fetal-like characteristics, and it's just one of many things that would seem to indicate that there's genetic continuity between us and them.

150
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,000
So rather than being from outside of Earth, they come from outside of time.

151
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:43,000
One apparent problem with this theory is the descriptions of the occupants of UFOs vary.

152
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:52,000
But Masters answers that too. He proposes that we're seeing craft and beings coming from different time periods in the future.

153
00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:00,000
A global study done by the Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation sampled over 3500 individuals asking them about their contact experiences.

154
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:08,000
And what they found is the majority of people saw humans, not humanoid or grey aliens, but actual humans.

155
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:16,000
And that might indicate that we could be coming back from a more proximate point in our future, possibly as early as 100 or 200 years.

156
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:23,000
In a century or two's time, the Earth could be a very different place to the planet we inhabit now.

157
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Why, if these mysterious craft are from the future? Are they so interested in the 20th and 21st centuries?

158
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:39,000
What is it about Earth in this time period which so fascinates them? The answer could be unsettling.

159
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:46,000
What's worrying some spectators is the volume of UFO sightings in this time period.

160
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:54,000
Does it presage some coming cataclysm? Are these visitors coming not to stop it, but to observe it?

161
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Now to some people the idea of UFOs being piloted by humans of a kind might be comforting.

162
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:08,000
I don't know, to me. It's the most unsettling scenario of all.

163
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:21,000
In the historic English spa town of Droitwich in Worcestershire in December 2010, a woman tells her husband an incredible story.

164
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:28,000
A woman believes that she's being regularly abducted by aliens in the early hours of the morning from her bed.

165
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:35,000
So her husband didn't really believe her, but she was really frightened to go to sleep.

166
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:41,000
So as somebody who works with security cameras for a living, he said, right, okay, we're going to set up a camera

167
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:47,000
and when you fall asleep, we'll film you and we'll show you that nothing's happening to you at night.

168
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:54,000
It sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? If your wife is saying to you, hey, I was abducted last night, but he set up the camera in the room.

169
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:04,000
The woman's husband hoped the footage would show nothing and reassure her she had nothing to fear.

170
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,000
But when they watched it back, they were both in for a shock.

171
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:19,000
The night vision footage is pretty clear. There's nothing obstructing our view of the bed and we can see the woman and she appears to be sleeping under a sheet on it.

172
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:25,000
We can see her moving every once in a while. We can also see her husband sleeping next to her to the left of the screen.

173
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:31,000
And so far, so good. It's just his wife sleeping. Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary taking place.

174
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:37,000
But as the clock hits 3.34 a.m., that all changes.

175
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:47,000
You can see her under the covers. She's moving around and then suddenly it looks as if she's arching her back and the bed covers just swallow her up.

176
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
They go flat and she's gone.

177
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:57,000
How her husband must have reacted to this footage, I can't imagine. His heart must have been in his throat.

178
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,000
There's no doubt she vanishes and people don't just disappear like that.

179
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Nobody is seen walking into the room and there's just her husband to the left of the camera. But suddenly he's alone in the room.

180
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:18,000
13 minutes later, according to the clock on the film, the woman reappears.

181
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Suddenly, you see the sheets on her side of the bed sort of inflate.

182
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:33,000
You can see that the disturbance has caused her husband to stir a little bit and she's just back there sleeping.

183
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:45,000
Looking at the time code on the camera, her reappearance is at 03.46. So the question is, where had she been for the previous 13 minutes?

184
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:53,000
The woman and her husband turned to Birmingham-based UFO investigator David Hodgrian in search of answers.

185
00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:03,000
A point that was noted by Hodgrian was that at no point did the couple seem to seek publicity or money for that matter for their footage.

186
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,000
And that convinced him that in all likelihood it was genuine.

187
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:15,000
The footage was also analyzed by an American television series that looks at photos and videos for signs of fakery.

188
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:20,000
They were unable to recreate the footage without resorting to hidden contraptions.

189
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:28,000
The footage is extraordinary, but the claim of abduction by a non-human intelligence is surprisingly common.

190
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:38,000
One study carried out by two American professors questioned nearly 6,000 people about their experiences with alien abduction.

191
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:48,000
The study concluded that around 3.7 million American adults report having been abducted by aliens at some point in their lives.

192
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,000
Many in a room surrounded by alien-looking creatures.

193
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:04,000
The appearance of evil-looking figures at the foot of the bed has been linked to a phenomenon called sleep paralysis.

194
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:12,000
It's a medical condition in which the mind and body become detached from each other in the moments just before sleep.

195
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:22,000
Some skeptics have suggested that alien abductions actually come down to the subject's pre-sleep activities.

196
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:32,000
So for example, having watched a movie or read a book on an alien subject.

197
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:45,000
In a study conducted by a researcher in England on sleep paralysis, the subject had watched an alien movie before going to bed

198
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:54,000
and in that state of sleep paralysis, imagine that an alien was there with them inserting a metal probe into their head.

199
00:26:54,000 --> 00:27:05,000
Sleep paralysis probably does explain a lot of these encounters, but this video of a woman seemingly vanished from her bed for 13 minutes.

200
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,000
That's a bit harder to explain.

201
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:18,000
No matter how strongly one might believe that sleep paralysis is the cause for some of these experiences of alien abduction,

202
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:24,000
what we have though in the case of the droid witch woman is an outright vanishing.

203
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:30,000
And the time that this apparent vanishing was caught on camera could be significant too.

204
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Professor Gary Nolan of the Stamford University School of Medicine has found that most of these reported alien abductions

205
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:48,000
happen between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. in the morning and that is a time when most of us are fast asleep.

206
00:27:51,000 --> 00:28:01,000
It's a time that's been known as the witch in us since the Middle Ages and some believe that this is the time that aliens deliberately choose to interact with us.

207
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:07,000
It's when the world is at its quietest and it's when we are at our most vulnerable.

208
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Many people who claim to have been abducted by aliens say they have been subjected to degrading examinations, surgical procedures and even sexual contact before being returned.

209
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Harvard University professor John E. Mack, who died in 2004, believed many of these abduction experiences were not the result of fantasies inspired by science fiction movies or comics, but were real.

210
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:55,000
Mack is a prominent and outspoken defender of the possibility of alien abductions and he says that books, media, TV shows, that sort of thing can't be responsible for all alien abduction experiences,

211
00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:02,000
given that some of them come from areas where people really aren't exposed to that kind of material.

212
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:18,000
No natural explanation has ever been established for the woman's mysterious disappearance from her bed and as we know, if you eliminate all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

213
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:24,000
As things stand, we still have no answers to what happened to this woman.

214
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:32,000
So we have to ask the question, what happened for those 13 minutes? Where did she go and what was done to her?

215
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:44,000
If this isn't a hoax of some kind, what we need to start thinking about maybe is where are people being taken in the middle of the night and why?

216
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Maybe the reality is that the dead of night holds more terrors and more secrets than we're prepared to admit.

217
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:25,000
Is there a secret deal between our world leaders and the entities who pilot UFOs? It seems an outlandish possibility, but in December 2020, Haim Eshed, who had been the head of Israel's space program for the country's defense ministry for over 30 years, says it's true.

218
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:35,000
Haim Eshed is a former general and aeronautics expert and regarded as the godfather of the nation's space program.

219
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:47,000
In an interview in Hebrew with an Israeli newspaper, Eshed said the UFOs had asked not to reveal that they're here. He said, quote, humanity is not ready yet.

220
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:54,000
He claimed that the occupants of UFOs have struck a secret and sinister agreement with leaders on Earth.

221
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Eshed says they're very interested in the fabric of the universe and that they're being allowed to conduct secret experiments.

222
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:14,000
He says that when Donald Trump was president that he was going to reveal the truth, but he was prevailed upon not to because it would have resulted in mass hysteria.

223
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:22,000
After the interview was published, the press clamored for Eshed to reveal more, but he fell silent.

224
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:30,000
Eshed's successor at the agency is a man called Isaac Bent Israel, and he says that Eshed went too far.

225
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:35,000
And actually, he also added, it was unlikely that human-alien encounters are occurring.

226
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:50,000
Could such a brilliant man be mistaken or even deluded? Or did he accidentally reveal a sinister bargain, long rumoured, to have been struck between the US government and the President Eisenhower in the 1950s

227
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:56,000
to keep the existence of UFOs secret until the world was ready to hear it?

228
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:11,000
Dwight D. Eisenhower, of course, was this huge colossus. He was a decorated Army general and he'd been supreme commander of Allied forces during the Normandy invasion until the German surrender in 1945.

229
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:22,000
By the time of his inauguration in 1953, Eisenhower was a five-star general, so possibly the man you want in charge if there's an alien invasion in the often.

230
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:35,000
Eisenhower entered the White House in 1953. It is said by some his most extraordinary act as president occurred on February the 20th, 1954.

231
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:48,000
The exact events of February 20th, 1954 aren't clear. All we know is that Eisenhower made a late-night trip from Palm Springs, California.

232
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:59,000
Some people believe that President Eisenhower went to Edwards Air Force Base in New Mexico that night, and that he went there to meet with two extraterrestrials.

233
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:14,000
Why would Eisenhower do this? UFOs have been appearing over American territory since the Kenneth Arnold sighting in 1947, and in 1952 there seems to have been an extraordinary escalation.

234
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Washington National radar apparently detects these objects flying over the White House and Capitol, and two F-94 jets immediately set out in hot pursuit, but every time they get close, the objects apparently disappear from radar detection.

235
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:40,000
The story made headlines across the U.S. UFOs over Washington. The Korean War, the presidential campaign, those were completely forgotten.

236
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:47,000
Now, the armed forces tried to minimize the story as much as possible, and the official line was that this was a weather event.

237
00:33:47,000 --> 00:34:01,000
But behind the scenes, these events have been taken really quite seriously, and in December the government convenes a panel of experts who have been told there is, quote, something going on that must have immediate attention.

238
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Some UFO investigators believe this was the catalyst for a secret presidential meeting.

239
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:15,000
At this meeting, it's said that Eisenhower made a peace deal with the extraterrestrials.

240
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:33,000
It was supposed to stop an alien invasion of Earth, in return for which Eisenhower agreed that the aliens would be able to secretly abduct and study human beings, provided they were returned unharmed.

241
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:43,000
But White House officials insist the president had an appointment with his dentist that day, not two extraterrestrial ambassadors.

242
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:54,000
And the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library in Kansas also maintains that the president went to the dentist that very night, and so does James M. Mixon.

243
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:04,000
He too is a dentist and a historian of presidential dental work, and he says that Ike certainly had work done on his crown.

244
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,000
A dental appointment seems far more likely than a secret interplanetary deal.

245
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:21,000
How could such a secret be kept? Why would politicians, military figures, why would they agree to keep such a world-changing secret secret?

246
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:34,000
You've got a man called Michael Sala. He's a former American university professor, and he believes that Eisenhower went to the Edwards Air Force Base in New Mexico that night, and he also believes that he went there to meet with two extraterrestrials.

247
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Michael Sala suggests the consequences of revealing the secret were too dire. The threat of invasion or total destruction by an advanced technology.

248
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:54,000
And high-level bizarre revelations, like Hayam Eschitz claimed that a secret deal has been done, now seem to be emerging from the shadows.

249
00:35:54,000 --> 00:36:02,000
Maybe there was a reason to keep this super secret in the past, but times have changed. Now is the time that we need to talk about this.

250
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:22,000
November 2018. The southwest desert of the United States. Over 95,000 square miles of arid and sparsely inhabited land. It's America's front line.

251
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,000
A star-long boat, two-eight-one-ling, four west-west slopes.

252
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:36,000
Near midnight on November 6, a US military Apache helicopter is preparing for takeoff near the Mexican-American border.

253
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,000
There's three really fast-flying jets up there.

254
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000
I will blame plus some AT-10s or some M16s.

255
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:50,000
One of the two men on board spots three unidentified objects in the distance.

256
00:36:53,000 --> 00:37:04,000
The camera captures flying objects speeding at about 1.3 times the speed of sound. That's more than 900 miles an hour.

257
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:21,000
The Apache helicopter is equipped with a pilot night vision sensor, which is used typically to track nighttime gang-related activity or legal immigrants.

258
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,000
And that's what enables the camera to track the dots at such high speed.

259
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,000
Over one and a half million people attempt to cross the border into America here every year.

260
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:40,000
And drugs worth over 50 million dollars are sent into the United States every single week.

261
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:49,000
The people who profit from these narcotics will stop at nothing to get their product into the country.

262
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,000
Mexico's drug barons are among the wealthiest people in the world.

263
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:02,000
The notorious El Chapo Guzman alone was worth an estimated 2.3 billion dollars.

264
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:14,000
So, you know, it stands to reason to think that maybe a man like that would have the money to invest in the very latest tech to get all those drugs across the border.

265
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:23,000
But even the fastest narco drones, as they're called, can't travel at the kinds of speeds logged in this video.

266
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:34,000
These craft could instead be a secret part of the American government's fight back against the billionaire narco drug lords.

267
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:46,000
So for years there have been many theories and conspiracies that a lot of these UFO sightings are actually examples of unseen U.S. technology.

268
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:52,000
This part of Southwest America is very sparsely populated desert.

269
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:57,000
It's the perfect place to conduct secret tests away from the public eye.

270
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:09,000
There's been a lot of talk, conspiracy theories of secretive U.S. military bases such as Area 51 being used for far more than just military training.

271
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:18,000
Now, of course, a lot of people have heard of Area 51, but actually there's a far less known secret base called Area 6.

272
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:27,000
So when a mile long runway is added to Area 6 in 2005, that only fuels the intrigue and just increases the question.

273
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Eventually, in 2016, National Nuclear Security Administration spokesman Darwin Morgan said the site is used to test unmanned aircraft away from the public eye and to avoid being spied on in space.

274
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:48,000
So could these objects have come from the Area 6 base?

275
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:57,000
If so, the U.S. has developed a highly unusual craft exhibiting unprecedented aerodynamic maneuverability.

276
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:04,000
As the objects approach a peak, they begin to rotate around each other almost as if they're rotating on an axis.

277
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,000
They're doing this at incredibly high speeds.

278
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Their movements are extraordinary. It's like they're performing.

279
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,000
There aren't, to my knowledge, any craft capable of motion like that.

280
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:21,000
So unless the U.S. government is keeping something seriously quiet, I'm really not sure what we're seeing here.

281
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,000
And then the three objects get even weirder.

282
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:31,000
We then see these objects appearing to form a triangle and they're moving at incredibly fast speeds.

283
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,000
You know, how they don't collide, I've no idea.

284
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:43,000
At Mark 1.28, which is around 980 miles an hour, that's a speed that many human-built fast jets are capable of.

285
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:53,000
It's not exceptional this speed, but what our human-built craft can't do to the best of our knowledge is move like that.

286
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,000
It's almost as though they have been spotted and are showing off for the camera.

287
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:03,000
This behavior doesn't just seem intentional and intelligent.

288
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:08,000
It seems to follow a pattern scientists have discovered in the movement of living creatures.

289
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:14,000
There's something about the movement of these objects that scientists find absolutely fascinating,

290
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:18,000
because they seem to be moving in a pattern that's called levy flight.

291
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:26,000
Levy flight is related to chaos theory and it's been found that the movement of living things

292
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:31,000
is similar to the movement of inert objects that are moving seemingly at random.

293
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:41,000
Sharks, the apex predators of our oceans, have to eat as much as 3% of their own body weight each meal just to survive.

294
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,000
Marine biologists have observed a shift in the behavior of sharks.

295
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,000
Their movements change, they become levy flights.

296
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Long trajectories followed by short, random movements specifically when they're hungry.

297
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:05,000
There was a study in 1999 that analyzed 12 million movements over 15 years

298
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:09,000
and that showed that numerous marine predator species like sharks

299
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,000
use levy flight movements when seeking food.

300
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,000
This is not the movement or behavior of machines or piloted machines.

301
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:25,000
This is the movement of something that looks as if it could be alive.

302
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,000
But no known living creature in our skies is capable of maneuvers like those captured by the footage

303
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:38,000
filmed over the arid landscape of the southwestern United States in November 2018.

304
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Science fiction movies have sold us the idea that UFOs are some kind of transportation device,

305
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,000
a futuristic type of spaceship.

306
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,000
But that could be a disguise.

307
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:59,000
Mathematician and UFO investigator Jacques Vallée says he has investigated a case where a woman and her family

308
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,000
saw a metallic disc above their car.

309
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:09,000
They caught it on camera, but the resulting photo which he says he saw didn't show a disc,

310
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:15,000
but a strange, spiky object, perhaps some kind of creature cloaking itself to human eyes.

311
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,000
You've got to ask, you know, some of these mysterious objects we see in this guy

312
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,000
and the things that we call UFOs, I mean, could they be life forms?

313
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:29,000
This particular form of travel has been spotted by many pilots who've encountered UFOs.

314
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:37,000
Ryan Graves, a former Navy pilot who encountered UAPs off the coasts of Virginia and Florida in 2014,

315
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:42,000
described their movement as jittery, not smooth like a conventional aircraft.

316
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Another pilot describes the UFO he encountered as moving like a housefly.

317
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:58,000
If these objects are in some ways living entities, mimicking the levee flight of some of our natural predators,

318
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:03,000
we perhaps have to rethink why they're here and what it is they want.

319
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:09,000
What a levee flight movement pattern suggests is that these objects are not following a predetermined course,

320
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:15,000
but are exploring, rather like an animal scoping an area for food.

321
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,000
Living creatures, machines or some kind of combination of the two,

322
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,000
sightings like the one captured by the helicopter on the arid border,

323
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,000
could provide a clue to the true nature of the phenomenon,

324
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:33,000
but as yet they raise more questions than answers.

325
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,000
What you feel about a UFO and their intentions and where they're from and who's behind the wheel,

326
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,000
we don't have that data yet.

327
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:45,000
We may not have it yet, but such is the increasing number of UFO sightings.

328
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,000
It surely won't belong before we do.
