force interest in this 19 00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:52,239 problem has been due to our feeling of 20 00:00:56,790 --> 00:00:54,160 an obligation to 21 00:00:59,110 --> 00:00:56,800 identify and analyze to the best of our 22 00:01:01,830 --> 00:00:59,120 ability anything in the air 23 00:01:03,830 --> 00:01:01,840 that may have the possibility of threat 24 00:01:07,270 --> 00:01:03,840 or minutes to the united states in 25 00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:07,280 pursuit of this obligation since 1947 26 00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:09,360 we have received and analyzed between 27 00:01:14,390 --> 00:01:11,680 one and two thousand reports that have 28 00:01:16,630 --> 00:01:14,400 come to us from all kinds of sources of 29 00:01:19,270 --> 00:01:16,640 this great massive reports we have been 30 00:01:21,670 --> 00:01:19,280 able adequately to explain 31 00:01:23,990 --> 00:01:21,680 the great bulk of them explain them to 32 00:01:26,469 --> 00:01:24,000 our own satisfaction however there have 33 00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:26,479 been a certain percentage of this volume 34 00:01:30,710 --> 00:01:28,720 of reports that have been made by 35 00:01:33,350 --> 00:01:30,720 credible observers 36 00:01:36,069 --> 00:01:33,360 of relatively incredible things it is 37 00:01:38,149 --> 00:01:36,079 this group of observations that we now 38 00:01:40,789 --> 00:01:38,159 are attempting to resolve 39 00:01:43,109 --> 00:01:40,799 we have as a date come to only one firm 40 00:01:45,910 --> 00:01:43,119 conclusion with respect to this 41 00:01:48,789 --> 00:01:45,920 remaining percentage and that is that 42 00:01:51,590 --> 00:01:48,799 it does not contain any pattern of 43 00:01:53,670 --> 00:01:51,600 purpose or of consistency that we can 44 00:01:55,050 --> 00:01:53,680 relate to any conceivable threat to the 45 00:01:56,469 --> 00:01:55,060 united states 46 00:01:58,630 --> 00:01:56,479 [Music] 47 00:02:01,749 --> 00:01:58,640 the voice you just heard was that of 48 00:02:04,389 -->

00:02:14,470 --> 00:02:11,440 the press conference taking place was in 52 00:02:17,110 --> 00:02:14,480 response to a wave of ufo reports from 53 00:02:18,869 --> 00:02:17,120 across the east coast primarily in 54 00:02:21,510 --> 00:02:18,879 washington dc 55 00:02:24,390 --> 00:02:21,520 hundreds of reports came in of strange 56 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:24,400 lights being spotted across the district 57 00:02:29,990 --> 00:02:27,120 some even being spotted directly over 58 00:02:32,710 --> 00:02:30,000 the nation's capital these lights and 59 00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:32,720 objects were detected on radar and jets 60 00:02:37,509 --> 00:02:34,640 were even scrambled to try to 61 00:02:39,990 --> 00:02:37,519 investigate but no solid conclusions 62 00:02:41,509 --> 00:02:40,000 were ever made on just exactly what had 63 00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:41,519 occurred 64 00:02:46,390 --> 00:02:43,360 meanwhile on the west coast in 65 00:02:48,309 --> 00:02:46,400 california reports of

00:02:58,550 --> 00:02:55,120 again no explanations were given for the 70 00:03:00,229 --> 00:02:58,560 varied and persistent sightings 71 00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:00,239 and while the united states government 72 00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:02,800 may have calmed public nerves on the 73 00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:05,760 threats of these ufos it certainly 74 00:03:11,589 --> 00:03:07,760 wasn't calming the nerves of captain 75 00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:11,599 john a harder in his crew on a b-29 76 00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:14,560 super fortress bomber a few months later 77 00:03:19,030 --> 00:03:17,040 over the gulf of mexico nor would it 78 00:03:21,190 --> 00:03:19,040 calm the nerves of those involved in 79 00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:21,200 countless other military encounters that 80 00:03:26,710 -->

morning of december 6 1952 88 00:04:24,150 --> 00:04:21,199 at 5 24 a.m captain john harder was 89 00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:24,160 piloting his b-29 bomber over the gulf 90 00:04:28,390 --> 00:04:26,720 of mexico back to randolph air force 91 00:04:31,189 --> 00:04:28,400 base in texas 92 00:04:33,670 --> 00:04:31,199 harder had radioed his radar operator 93 00:04:35,830 --> 00:04:33,680 lieutenant sid coleman and asked him to 94 00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:35,840 get a check on the coastline on the 95 00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:38,560 auxiliary scope in the cockpit 96 00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:40,800 as coleman was doing this he suddenly 97 00:04:46,710 --> 00:04:43,520 noticed an unknown blip on the radar 98 00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:46,720 screen only a moment later the object 99 00:04:52,710 --> 00:04:50,240 had moved approximately 13 miles as 100 00:04:56,150 --> 00:04:52,720 coleman watched a rising sense of 101 00:04:58,629 --> 00:04:56,160 concern began to form inside of him the 102 00:05:00,870 --> 00:04:58,639 unknown object was seemingly headed 103 00:05:03,590 --> 00:05:00,880 straight for their plane 104 00:05:05,029 --> 00:05:03,600 he then noticed that their paths were 105 00:05:07,510 --> 00:05:05,039 separating 106 00:05:09,990 --> 00:05:07,520 at this point coleman reached for his 107 00:05:12,790 --> 00:05:10,000 stopwatch and shouted for the assistant 108 00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:12,800 radar operator master sergeant bailey to 109 00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:15,440 help him track the unknown craft 110 00:05:19,430 --> 00:05:17,440 with the stopwatch coleman quickly 111 00:05:20,990 --> 00:05:19,440 calculated that the object was moving at 112 00:05:23,749 --> 00:05:21,000 a staggering 113 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:23,759 5200 miles per hour 114 00:05:28,629 --> 00:05:25,919 he reached for the intercom and spoke to 115 00:05:30,790 --> 00:05:28,639 captain harder stating quote captain 116 00:05:34,629 --> 00:05:30,800 check your scope we just clocked an 117 00:05:35,749 --> 00:05:34,639 unknown at over 5 000 miles per hour end 118 00:05:39,990 --> 00:05:35,759 quote 119 00:05:42,070 --> 00:05:40,000 impossible ordering coleman to 120 00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:42,080 recalibrate the set 121 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:44,720 coleman did as he was ordered however a 122 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:47,280 moment later bayley exclaimed that 123 00:05:50,870 --> 00:05:49,759 another two blips had just shown on the 124 00:05:53,189 --> 00:05:50,880 radar 125 00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:53,199 a moment after that another assistant 126 00:05:58,150 --> 00:05:55,919 radar operator staff sergeant faris 127 00:06:00,629 --> 00:05:58,160 confirmed the sighting stating that he 128 00:06:02,870 --> 00:06:00,639 had them on his scope as well 129 00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:02,880 coleman finished the recalibration and 130 00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:05,520 returned his focus to the screen 131 00:06:10,550 --> 00:06:08,479 there were now four separate objects all 132 00:06:11,749 --> 00:06:10,560 of which were heading straight toward 133 00:06:13,909 --> 00:06:11,759 them 134 00:06:16,550 --> 00:06:13,919 suddenly harder's voice came over the 135 00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:16,560 intercom harter would say that he had 136 00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:19,199 four unknowns at 12 o'clock 137 00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:20,960 he then asked coleman what he could see 138 00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:23,280 on his screen he responded that the 139 00:06:28,710 --> 00:06:26,479 objects were on all three scopes 140 00:06:31,029 --> 00:06:28,720 coleman would state that he now had an 141 00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:31,039 unknown at his three o'clock 142 00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:33,600 sergeant bailey witnessed this approach 143 00:06:38,710 --> 00:06:35,919 having left his station momentarily to 144 00:06:41,189 --> 00:06:38,720 peer through a side window of the plane 145 00:06:44,230 --> 00:06:41,199 in the dark sky of early morning he 146 00:06:47,110 --> 00:06:44,240 could clearly see a glowing blue object 147 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:47,120 streak past the plane at unbelievable 148 00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:48,479 speeds 149 00:06:53,189 --> 00:06:50,639 the object was nothing but a blur to 150 00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:53,199 bailey due to the incredible speeds and 151 00:06:58,150 --> 00:06:55,440 eventually the object disappeared under 152 00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:58,160 the wing of their aircraft 153 00:07:02,629 --> 00:07:00,400 almost as soon as the craft had vanished 154 00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:02,639 into the dark another set of lips 155 00:07:08,150 --> 00:07:04,960 appeared on the radar screens and once 156 00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:08,160 more they were moving over 5 000 miles 157 00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:09,360 per hour 158 00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:11,680 of more concern however was the fact 159 00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,599 that they were coming right at the plane 160 00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:15,599 from straight ahead 161 00:07:20,629 --> 00:07:17,680 the operators quickly calculated the 162 00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:20,639 objects would indeed miss the plane 163 00:07:26,230 --> 00:07:23,680 but any deviation from this route or the 164 00:07:28,469 --> 00:07:26,240 bombers would almost certainly result in 165 00:07:31,670 --> 00:07:28,479 a head-on collision 166 00:07:34,550 --> 00:07:31,680 at approximately 5 31 a.m the objects 167 00:07:36,629 --> 00:07:34,560 appeared to have vanished for good 168 00:07:38,469 --> 00:07:36,639 several of the crew members let out a 169 00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:38,479 sigh of relief 170 00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:40,400 but that sense of relief would be 171 00:07:44,950 --> 00:07:42,080 short-lived 172 00:07:47,029 --> 00:07:44,960 it was a little after 5 32 a.m when 173 00:07:48,629 --> 00:07:47,039 another group of objects appeared on the 174 00:07:51,029 --> 00:07:48,639 radar screens 175 00:07:53,350 --> 00:07:51,039 pulling the crew back into action 176 00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:53,360 coleman once more worked out their speed 177 00:07:56,550 --> 00:07:55,360 as being the same as the previous 178 00:08:01,029 --> 00:07:56,560 objects 179 00:08:02,230 --> 00:08:01,039 were streaking past them on the right 180 00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:02,240 side 181 00:08:07,589 --> 00:08:05,039 this time ferris took the opportunity to 182 00:08:10,950 --> 00:08:07,599 look out into the sky witnessing two 183 00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:10,960 blue white blurs speed past 184 00:08:15,350 --> 00:08:12,960 while this was taking place in the 185 00:08:17,189 --> 00:08:15,360 cockpit harder was carefully monitoring 186 00:08:19,990 --> 00:08:17,199 the auxiliary scope 187 00:08:23,350 --> 00:08:20,000 he could see a group of five objects 188 00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:23,360 approximately 40 miles behind the b-29 189 00:08:26,950 --> 00:08:24,639 bomber 190 00:08:29,270 --> 00:08:26,960 they were clearly following them and 191 00:08:31,990 --> 00:08:29,280 looking to cut across their path 192 00:08:34,949 --> 00:08:32,000 then he noticed them change slightly 193 00:08:37,029 --> 00:08:34,959 heading straight for the plane again 194 00:08:39,750 --> 00:08:37,039 at the current speed they would be on 195 00:08:41,670 --> 00:08:39,760 them in under three seconds 196 00:08:44,710 --> 00:08:41,680 as he was about to react though the 197 00:08:46,870 --> 00:08:44,720 blips suddenly slowed down to a speed 198 00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:46,880 that matched that of the bomber 199 00:08:51,190 --> 00:08:48,880 and for the next 10 seconds they 200 00:08:52,790 --> 00:08:51,200 remained behind them keeping pace with 201 00:08:55,750 --> 00:08:52,800 the plane 202 00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:55,760 then things turned even stranger 203 00:09:01,030 --> 00:08:57,680 the objects suddenly moved to the side 204 00:09:03,990 --> 00:09:01,040 of the plane once more at great speed 205 00:09:06,630 --> 00:09:04,000 at the same time a monstrous blip 206 00:09:09,190 --> 00:09:06,640 appeared on the radar screen 207 00:09:12,230 --> 00:09:09,200 as the crew watched the five objects 208 00:09:15,430 --> 00:09:12,240 raced towards the larger object still at 209 00:09:17,990 --> 00:09:15,440 over 5000 miles per hour and then seemed 210 00:09:20,710 --> 00:09:18,000 to merge with what appeared to be a 211 00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:20,720 mothership of some sort 212 00:09:25,590 --> 00:09:22,800 once all the objects appeared to be 213 00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:25,600 attached the larger object moved across 214 00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:29,120 the radar screens at an alarming speed 215 00:09:34,230 --> 00:09:32,080 and then in an instant the mothership 216 00:09:36,790 --> 00:09:34,240 was gone 217 00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:36,800 after a few moments coleman's startled 218 00:09:41,829 --> 00:09:39,200 voice came over the intercom he would 219 00:09:46,949 --> 00:09:41,839 declare that the large object was moving 220 00:09:49,030 --> 00:09:46,959 at a speed of over 9 000 miles per hour 221 00:09:51,509 --> 00:09:49,040 although there were no more appearances 222 00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:51,519 from the glowing discs-shaped objects 223 00:09:56,949 --> 00:09:54,160 the crew remained on full alert until 224 00:09:59,110 --> 00:09:56,959 they landed at randolph air force base a 225 00:10:01,670 --> 00:09:59,120 short time later 226 00:10:03,990 --> 00:10:01,680 by the time they arrived in texas 227 00:10:06,870 --> 00:10:04,000 following on from hartley radioing the 228 00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:06,880 base of their experience intelligence 229 00:10:12,310 --> 00:10:09,760 officers were already waiting for them 230 00:10:14,949 --> 00:10:12,320 each of the crew members were questioned 231 00:10:17,829 --> 00:10:14,959 repeatedly by these officers both 232 00:10:21,190 --> 00:10:17,839 separately and then together however 233 00:10:22,790 --> 00:10:21,200 their accounts remained exactly the same 234 00:10:25,750 --> 00:10:22,800 each time 235 00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:25,760 noted ufo researcher donald kehoe had 236 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:28,800 looked extensively into this case in his 237 00:10:33,430 --> 00:10:31,120 personal report he would state that it 238 00:10:35,750 --> 00:10:33,440 was clear that quote these discs had 239 00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:35,760 been launched from a huge mother ship 240 00:10:39,829 --> 00:10:38,640 for some type of reconnaissance mission 241 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:39,839 end quote 242 00:10:43,990 --> 00:10:41,920 he would go on to speculate how the 243 00:10:46,550 --> 00:10:44,000 mothership and the discs could have 244 00:10:49,110 --> 00:10:46,560 quote covered parts of the united states 245 00:10:50,790 --> 00:10:49,120 end quote however he would also point 246 00:10:53,269 --> 00:10:50,800 out that given the discs and the 247 00:10:55,910 --> 00:10:53,279 mothership's tremendous speed they quote 248 00:10:57,269 --> 00:10:55,920 could have been operating anywhere over 249 00:10:59,509 --> 00:10:57,279 the world 250 00:11:02,150 --> 00:10:59,519 he would also state that it was likely 251 00:11:04,710 --> 00:11:02,160 pure coincidence that the rendezvous 252 00:11:07,269 --> 00:11:04,720 point happened to be the gulf of mexico 253 00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:07,279 where the b-29 was flying 254 00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:09,839 furthermore it was likely that one unit 255 00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:13,600 or batch of disks had gone to observe or 256 00:11:19,269 --> 00:11:16,720 track the plane kiho would also point to 257 00:11:21,509 --> 00:11:19,279 the radar readings combined with visual 258 00:11:24,470 --> 00:11:21,519 sighting that all but confirmed the 259 00:11:26,790 --> 00:11:24,480 incident as genuine and credible 260 00:11:29,590 --> 00:11:26,800 but even more incredible was that a 261 00:11:33,910 --> 00:11:29,600 similar incident had occurred only 48 262 00:11:36,150 --> 00:11:33,920 hours prior to the b-29 event 263 00:11:38,389 --> 00:11:36,160 according to an official project blue 264 00:11:41,030 --> 00:11:38,399 book report on the evening of december 265 00:11:44,710 --> 00:11:41,040 4th lieutenant robert arnold was 266 00:11:47,829 --> 00:11:44,720 piloting a t28 trojan aircraft from 267 00:11:50,389 --> 00:11:47,839 laredo air force base in texas 268 00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:50,399 after an extensive training exercise he 269 00:11:55,030 --> 00:11:53,040 began his journey back to the base 270 00:11:57,110 --> 00:11:55,040 while waiting for permission to land 271 00:12:00,949 --> 00:11:57,120 from the control tower he circled the 272 00:12:03,350 --> 00:12:00,959 base for almost 45 minutes during a very 273 00:12:05,590 --> 00:12:03,360 heavy traffic time period 274 00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:05,600 it was as he was asking ground control 275 00:12:10,550 --> 00:12:07,920 how much longer it would be that arnold 276 00:12:14,310 --> 00:12:10,560 noticed a strong bluish light in the 277 00:12:16,470 --> 00:12:14,320 distance moving with considerable speed 278 00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:16,480 from his position the glowing object 279 00:12:21,110 --> 00:12:18,880 appeared to be approximately two miles 280 00:12:23,269 --> 00:12:21,120 southeast of the air base and around 281 00:12:24,790 --> 00:12:23,279 four thousand feet below arnold's 282 00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:24,800 altitude 283 00:12:28,790 --> 00:12:27,200 at first he thought the light must be an 284 00:12:31,750 --> 00:12:28,800 approaching jet 285 00:12:34,230 --> 00:12:31,760 however as it got closer he realized it 286 00:12:36,310 --> 00:12:34,240 wasn't a jet at all 287 00:12:38,870 --> 00:12:36,320 though it was very bright he could 288 00:12:40,389 --> 00:12:38,880 somewhat make out an elliptical shape 289 00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:40,399 within the light 290 00:12:45,430 --> 00:12:42,800 the object continued moving in a south 291 00:12:48,389 --> 00:12:45,440 easternly direction as arnold steered 292 00:12:51,350 --> 00:12:48,399 his plane in order to keep it in view 293 00:12:54,150 --> 00:12:51,360 suddenly the object rose in an instant 294 00:12:55,990 --> 00:12:54,160 to the same altitude as arnold before 295 00:12:58,949 --> 00:12:56,000 embarking on what appeared to be a 296 00:13:00,629 --> 00:12:58,959 circling of the air base 297 00:13:03,030 --> 00:13:00,639 when it reached the north side of the 298 00:13:06,550 --> 00:13:03,040 base the object suddenly dropped to an 299 00:13:09,430 --> 00:13:06,560 altitude of around 2000 feet it would 300 00:13:12,069 --> 00:13:09,440 move out over the city of loreto before 301 00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:12,079 climbing to unbelievable speed according 302 00:13:17,670 --> 00:13:15,760 to arnold of approximately 15 000 feet 303 00:13:19,910 --> 00:13:17,680 in altitude 304 00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:19,920 the object remained at this altitude for 305 00:13:25,590 --> 00:13:22,160 several moments before dropping once 306 00:13:29,030 --> 00:13:25,600 again to the same altitude as arnold 307 00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:29,040 then it headed straight at him 308 00:13:33,990 --> 00:13:30,959 arnold noticed that the object appeared 309 00:13:36,870 --> 00:13:34,000 to waver slightly as if quote 310 00:13:39,750 --> 00:13:36,880 determining on which side of my craft it 311 00:13:41,829 --> 00:13:39,760 wanted to pass by end quote 312 00:13:44,629 --> 00:13:41,839 the next thing arnold knew the object 313 00:13:46,230 --> 00:13:44,639 was passing within 50 yards of the left 314 00:13:48,790 --> 00:13:46,240 wing of his plane 315 00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:48,800 he noted that as it passed he could see 316 00:13:53,509 --> 00:13:52,000 a quote blurred reddish bluish haze end 317 00:13:55,750 --> 00:13:53,519 quote 318 00:13:58,069 --> 00:13:55,760 the blue book report states that things 319 00:14:00,790 --> 00:13:58,079 quote happened so rapidly that 320 00:14:02,710 --> 00:14:00,800 lieutenant arnold was unable to take any 321 00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:02,720 evasive action 322 00:14:07,189 --> 00:14:04,880 he turned his plane once more in order 323 00:14:09,430 --> 00:14:07,199 to keep the craft in sight 324 00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:09,440 and once more he noticed that the object 325 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:12,160 was accelerating to a high altitude of 326 00:14:17,509 --> 00:14:14,560 around fifteen thousand feet 327 00:14:19,750 --> 00:14:17,519 then the object began to descend once 328 00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:19,760 more only this time it appeared as 329 00:14:24,389 --> 00:14:21,760 though it was looking to approach 330 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:24,399 arnold's plane head on 331 00:14:29,590 --> 00:14:26,880 arnold would turn off his running lights 332 00:14:32,069 --> 00:14:29,600 and drop to an altitude of around 1500 333 00:14:34,710 --> 00:14:32,079 feet he managed to keep the object in 334 00:14:37,350 --> 00:14:34,720 his sights while doing so and notice 335 00:14:40,150 --> 00:14:37,360 that it had seemingly given up the chase 336 00:14:43,030 --> 00:14:40,160 and was instead heading out of sight at 337 00:14:45,670 --> 00:14:43,040 extremely rapid pace 338 00:14:48,470 --> 00:14:45,680 in total the object remained in sight of 339 00:14:51,910 --> 00:14:48,480 arnold for around seven minutes 340 00:14:53,910 --> 00:14:51,920 by 905 pm arnold finally landed at 341 00:14:56,069 --> 00:14:53,920 loreto air force base 342 00:14:58,949 --> 00:14:56,079 he would immediately report the incident 343 00:15:02,629 --> 00:14:58,959 to his superiors and was then told to 344 00:15:05,670 --> 00:15:02,639 never speak of the incident again 345 00:15:08,470 --> 00:15:05,680 as 1952 ended it only seemed to bring 346 00:15:10,949 --> 00:15:08,480 out more ufo sightings in the beginning 347 00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:10,959 of 1953 348 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:14,160 on january 6 a little after 1 a.m just 349 00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:17,199 outside of dallas texas multiple reports 350 00:15:21,269 --> 00:15:19,680 were received of a strange light moving 351 00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:21,279 in the night sky 352 00:15:26,949 --> 00:15:24,240 shortly after 1am a report came in from 353 00:15:29,269 --> 00:15:26,959 a resident of paris texas who claimed 354 00:15:32,949 --> 00:15:29,279 that he had quote chased an object with 355 00:15:35,189 --> 00:15:32,959 his car for 30 minutes end quote 356 00:15:37,990 --> 00:15:35,199 several other witnesses would report 357 00:15:40,470 --> 00:15:38,000 that a quote arrow-shaped object with a 358 00:15:43,110 --> 00:15:40,480 green blue light at what appeared to be 359 00:15:45,189 --> 00:15:43,120 the front end a red light that changed 360 00:15:47,110 --> 00:15:45,199 orange underneath 361 00:15:49,110 --> 00:15:47,120 according to the air intelligence 362 00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:49,120 information report in the project blue 363 00:15:54,790 --> 00:15:51,680 book files several of these reports 364 00:15:57,110 --> 00:15:54,800 conflicted with each other in terms of 365 00:16:00,550 --> 00:15:57,120 the direction of the object and where it 366 00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:00,560 was moving and its estimated altitude 367 00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:03,040 what's more tinker air force base in 368 00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:05,600 oklahoma would also report that they'd 369 00:16:11,910 --> 00:16:08,480 had an unidentified object on the radar 370 00:16:13,829 --> 00:16:11,920 around 30 miles southwest of paris texas 371 00:16:17,269 --> 00:16:13,839 they would estimate that the object was 372 00:16:19,749 --> 00:16:17,279 moving at just short of 700 miles per 373 00:16:22,470 --> 00:16:19,759 hour and was flying at an altitude of 374 00:16:24,949 --> 00:16:22,480 about 7 500 feet 375 00:16:27,990 --> 00:16:24,959 the object remained on their screens for 376 00:16:29,430 --> 00:16:28,000 around 30 minutes before simply fading 377 00:16:31,430 --> 00:16:29,440 away 378 00:16:33,749 --> 00:16:31,440 because of the different directions of 379 00:16:35,509 --> 00:16:33,759 the objects one on radar and one 380 00:16:37,670 --> 00:16:35,519 witnessed visually 381 00:16:39,910 --> 00:16:37,680 it was determined that there must have 382 00:16:42,870 --> 00:16:39,920 been at least two strange objects over 383 00:16:45,430 --> 00:16:42,880 texas that night and when we recall the 384 00:16:47,990 --> 00:16:45,440 claims of the quote mothership sending 385 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:48,000 out scouter type vehicles we might also 386 00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:50,480 consider the possibility that this might 387 00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:52,959 have been the same case 388 00:16:57,590 --> 00:16:55,519 investigations into these reports showed 389 00:16:59,670 --> 00:16:57,600 that there were no planned flights in 390 00:17:01,509 --> 00:16:59,680 the region that evening 391 00:17:03,749 --> 00:17:01,519 furthermore when the local police were 392 00:17:05,590 --> 00:17:03,759 contacted they revealed not only had 393 00:17:08,069 --> 00:17:05,600 they received multiple calls that 394 00:17:10,470 --> 00:17:08,079 evening of the strange glowing object 395 00:17:13,669 --> 00:17:10,480 but that several of their officers on 396 00:17:16,710 --> 00:17:13,679 patrol duty also spotted it and reported 397 00:17:18,789 --> 00:17:16,720 it to the dispatcher the same was stated 398 00:17:20,949 --> 00:17:18,799 by the local fire department who claimed 399 00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:20,959 that the radio dispatcher and several 400 00:17:26,150 --> 00:17:24,319 firemen witnessed the object overhead 401 00:17:28,870 --> 00:17:26,160 another witness claimed to have seen the 402 00:17:31,669 --> 00:17:28,880 object quote floating in the sky as he 403 00:17:33,909 --> 00:17:31,679 looked out of the window of city hall 404 00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:33,919 a pilot with almost three decades of 405 00:17:38,950 --> 00:17:36,160 experience in aviation at the control 406 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:38,960 tower of love field who also witnessed 407 00:17:43,990 --> 00:17:41,039 it claimed that he quote should know a 408 00:17:45,590 --> 00:17:44,000 plane or a star by now and this was 409 00:17:48,230 --> 00:17:45,600 neither 410 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:48,240 perhaps one of the best sightings though 411 00:17:52,470 --> 00:17:50,640 came from a meteorologist at the dallas 412 00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:52,480 weather station who would view the 413 00:17:58,070 --> 00:17:55,840 object through a six-power telescope he 414 00:18:01,110 --> 00:17:58,080 would state that quote the object was 415 00:18:03,990 --> 00:18:01,120 elongated and it was vertical standing 416 00:18:05,510 --> 00:18:04,000 on end and it had a definite impression 417 00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:05,520 of dimension 418 00:18:11,190 --> 00:18:08,400 at first it changed color rapidly from 419 00:18:13,830 --> 00:18:11,200 white to blue and then red to green 420 00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:13,840 later it remained white with a red spot 421 00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:16,480 on the underside end quote 422 00:18:20,630 --> 00:18:18,640 of course this detailed description 423 00:18:22,710 --> 00:18:20,640 viewed through a telescope no less 424 00:18:25,029 --> 00:18:22,720 matched many of those that had come from 425 00:18:27,669 --> 00:18:25,039 the general public 426 00:18:30,310 --> 00:18:27,679 interestingly the meteorologist also 427 00:18:33,029 --> 00:18:30,320 stated there was a possibility in his 428 00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:33,039 opinion that quote this could be a 429 00:18:38,870 --> 00:18:36,160 mothership for smaller saucers traveling 430 00:18:41,190 --> 00:18:38,880 in our orbit end quote 431 00:18:43,590 --> 00:18:41,200 three days later on the evening of 432 00:18:46,470 --> 00:18:43,600 january 9th another sighting of a 433 00:18:49,350 --> 00:18:46,480 glowing object was observed this time 434 00:18:52,710 --> 00:18:49,360 further west in california 435 00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:52,720 just before 7 30 pm the crew of another 436 00:18:59,430 --> 00:18:56,160 b-29 bomber over santa ana witnessed a 437 00:19:01,270 --> 00:18:59,440 quote v formation of blue white lights 438 00:19:03,190 --> 00:19:01,280 approach their plane 439 00:19:05,669 --> 00:19:03,200 they match the plane's altitude for a 440 00:19:07,669 --> 00:19:05,679 few moments before fading away again 441 00:19:10,070 --> 00:19:07,679 into the night 442 00:19:12,470 --> 00:19:10,080 according to the pilot lieutenant lowell 443 00:19:14,549 --> 00:19:12,480 d brandt's statement it was co-pilot 444 00:19:17,110 --> 00:19:14,559 lieutenant charles loveless who had 445 00:19:18,870 --> 00:19:17,120 drawn his attention to the lights 446 00:19:20,870 --> 00:19:18,880 the official report states that the 447 00:19:23,669 --> 00:19:20,880 lights quote approached the aircraft 448 00:19:26,630 --> 00:19:23,679 with such rapid speed of closure that 449 00:19:28,950 --> 00:19:26,640 brent started to turn to the left 450 00:19:31,029 --> 00:19:28,960 as he did so it appeared the lights were 451 00:19:33,590 --> 00:19:31,039 holding their position before they 452 00:19:35,909 --> 00:19:33,600 suddenly rose slightly and disappeared 453 00:19:37,430 --> 00:19:35,919 in what seemed to be an instant end 454 00:19:39,909 --> 00:19:37,440 quote 455 00:19:42,070 --> 00:19:39,919 in total the lights were in sight for no 456 00:19:44,789 --> 00:19:42,080 more than five seconds 457 00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:44,799 brent and loveless reported they heard 458 00:19:48,789 --> 00:19:47,520 no sound whatsoever from the mysterious 459 00:19:50,870 --> 00:19:48,799 objects 460 00:19:53,750 --> 00:19:50,880 the weather at the time of the incident 461 00:19:56,470 --> 00:19:53,760 was clear and each pilot was certain 462 00:19:59,110 --> 00:19:56,480 what they had seen was not a reflecting 463 00:20:01,270 --> 00:19:59,120 illusion records show that there was no 464 00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:01,280 other aircraft in the area at the time 465 00:20:06,310 --> 00:20:03,760 of the sighting there were also however 466 00:20:08,070 --> 00:20:06,320 no other witnesses from the ground who 467 00:20:10,390 --> 00:20:08,080 might have observed the mysterious 468 00:20:12,390 --> 00:20:10,400 object and there were no reports of the 469 00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:12,400 strange object from the many control 470 00:20:16,630 --> 00:20:15,280 towers military and civilian in the 471 00:20:18,630 --> 00:20:16,640 region 472 00:20:20,549 --> 00:20:18,640 around three weeks later another 473 00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:20,559 intriguing sighting occurred on the 474 00:20:24,950 --> 00:20:22,880 other side of the united states 475 00:20:28,789 --> 00:20:24,960 just before 10 a.m on the morning of 476 00:20:32,310 --> 00:20:28,799 january 29th the pilots of an f-94 jet 477 00:20:35,110 --> 00:20:32,320 witnessed a quote gray oval ufo over 478 00:20:37,909 --> 00:20:35,120 presque isle in maine according to the 479 00:20:40,390 --> 00:20:37,919 report the pilot lieutenant fred goading 480 00:20:42,470 --> 00:20:40,400 would witness the object first and would 481 00:20:45,669 --> 00:20:42,480 quickly alert his radar observer 482 00:20:48,630 --> 00:20:45,679 lieutenant howard kelly the f-94 was 483 00:20:51,190 --> 00:20:48,640 flying at an altitude of around 23 000 484 00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:51,200 feet with a bizarre object slightly 485 00:20:54,630 --> 00:20:52,480 above them 486 00:20:57,110 --> 00:20:54,640 in his official statement kelly would 487 00:20:59,909 --> 00:20:57,120 offer that goating had to quote point it 488 00:21:01,190 --> 00:20:59,919 out repeatedly before he finally saw the 489 00:21:05,990 --> 00:21:01,200 object 490 00:21:08,149 --> 00:21:06,000 quote thin and oval and gray in color 491 00:21:10,950 --> 00:21:08,159 elaborating further that it was well 492 00:21:14,149 --> 00:21:10,960 defined in dull colored and that it was 493 00:21:16,630 --> 00:21:14,159 not shiny or luminous he would continue 494 00:21:19,909 --> 00:21:16,640 that there was quote no visible means of 495 00:21:21,590 --> 00:21:19,919 propulsion nor any smoke or contrails 496 00:21:24,070 --> 00:21:21,600 end quote 497 00:21:26,630 --> 00:21:24,080 goating would echo these descriptions 498 00:21:28,149 --> 00:21:26,640 describing the object as clearly oval 499 00:21:30,470 --> 00:21:28,159 and thin shaped 500 00:21:32,789 --> 00:21:30,480 he would also like his co-pilot claimed 501 00:21:35,909 --> 00:21:32,799 that the object quote did not shine or 502 00:21:37,830 --> 00:21:35,919 give off any light end quote 503 00:21:40,070 --> 00:21:37,840 the goating began to give chase to the 504 00:21:42,630 --> 00:21:40,080 oval-shaped craft in an attempt to 505 00:21:44,950 --> 00:21:42,640 intercept it however after several 506 00:21:47,990 --> 00:21:44,960 minutes of doing so covering a distance 507 00:21:50,070 --> 00:21:48,000 of around 40 miles low fuel levels would 508 00:21:51,669 --> 00:21:50,080 force him to break off from the chase 509 00:21:53,590 --> 00:21:51,679 and return to base 510 00:21:56,230 --> 00:21:53,600 according to the air force intelligence 511 00:21:58,470 --> 00:21:56,240 information report two other unnamed 512 00:21:59,990 --> 00:21:58,480 pilots also witnessed the strange 513 00:22:02,070 --> 00:22:00,000 aircraft 514 00:22:04,549 --> 00:22:02,080 project blue book investigators would 515 00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:04,559 state that the object was most likely 516 00:22:08,710 --> 00:22:06,480 the planet venus 517 00:22:10,950 --> 00:22:08,720 in this despite the time of the sighting 518 00:22:13,990 --> 00:22:10,960 and the detailed description from goding 519 00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:14,000 and kelly it was a conclusion that many 520 00:22:17,750 --> 00:22:15,679 rejected 521 00:22:20,789 --> 00:22:17,760 there were several other incidents in 522 00:22:24,470 --> 00:22:20,799 the opening weeks of february of 1953 as 523 00:22:27,750 --> 00:22:24,480 well on february 1st at around 9 30 p.m 524 00:22:30,789 --> 00:22:27,760 over tara hot indiana the pilot of a 525 00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:30,799 t-33 military plane witnessed a strange 526 00:22:35,430 --> 00:22:33,280 moving light that was quote changing 527 00:22:37,830 --> 00:22:35,440 color from red to blue to green to 528 00:22:39,430 --> 00:22:37,840 yellow end quote the pilot would 529 00:22:41,990 --> 00:22:39,440 estimate that the light's altitude 530 00:22:44,149 --> 00:22:42,000 varied from about fifteen thousand feet 531 00:22:46,470 --> 00:22:44,159 to thirty thousand feet and appeared to 532 00:22:48,630 --> 00:22:46,480 fly quote in a manner similar to 533 00:22:50,950 --> 00:22:48,640 conventional aircraft 534 00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:50,960 what's more searchlights from the saint 535 00:22:55,830 --> 00:22:53,360 louis region appeared to pick up the 536 00:22:58,149 --> 00:22:55,840 moving light several times 537 00:23:00,149 --> 00:22:58,159 later investigations would reveal that 538 00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:00,159 there were several aircraft in the terre 539 00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:02,320 haute airspace at the time of this 540 00:23:07,350 --> 00:23:05,360 incident both commercial and military 541 00:23:09,830 --> 00:23:07,360 whether these terrestrial aircraft might 542 00:23:12,070 --> 00:23:09,840 have been the moving lights or not is 543 00:23:14,390 --> 00:23:12,080 still uncertain meaning that the 544 00:23:16,230 --> 00:23:14,400 sightings are essentially still 545 00:23:18,470 --> 00:23:16,240 unexplained 546 00:23:20,950 --> 00:23:18,480 around the same time as these incidents 547 00:23:24,149 --> 00:23:20,960 in the u.s similar sightings were 548 00:23:26,149 --> 00:23:24,159 occurring all over the world as well 549 00:23:28,789 --> 00:23:26,159 at around 11am on the morning of 550 00:23:31,110 --> 00:23:28,799 february 6th a united states air force 551 00:23:34,070 --> 00:23:31,120 officer in charge of the weather bureau 552 00:23:36,230 --> 00:23:34,080 station near the former truck atoll 553 00:23:38,710 --> 00:23:36,240 islands reported seeing a shiny 554 00:23:41,830 --> 00:23:38,720 bullet-shaped object moving at a speed 555 00:23:44,950 --> 00:23:41,840 of around 150 miles per hour and at an 556 00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:44,960 altitude of around 500 feet he would 557 00:23:49,110 --> 00:23:46,720 further estimate that the object was 558 00:23:51,510 --> 00:23:49,120 approximately three to four miles from 559 00:23:54,390 --> 00:23:51,520 his location and was slightly larger 560 00:23:56,710 --> 00:23:54,400 than a c-47 aircraft 561 00:23:59,590 --> 00:23:56,720 however the object had no noticeable 562 00:24:02,470 --> 00:23:59,600 wings or tail section and appeared to be 563 00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:02,480 made of a highly polished metal as it 564 00:24:08,549 --> 00:24:06,320 shined brilliantly in the morning sky 565 00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:08,559 despite the witness clearly stating he 566 00:24:13,590 --> 00:24:10,960 could not make out any wings or tail 567 00:24:16,310 --> 00:24:13,600 section not to mention how fantastically 568 00:24:18,950 --> 00:24:16,320 it's shown the military investigation 569 00:24:21,909 --> 00:24:18,960 claimed that guam flight records showed 570 00:24:24,070 --> 00:24:21,919 that a c-47 was in the region at 571 00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:24,080 approximately the same time as the 572 00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:25,200 sighting 573 00:24:29,590 --> 00:24:27,679 elaborating that the quote bright sun 574 00:24:32,950 --> 00:24:29,600 could very well have distorted the 575 00:24:35,029 --> 00:24:32,960 normal features of the plane but just 576 00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:35,039 like the rest of the sightings this was 577 00:24:40,549 --> 00:24:38,080 never truly explained 578 00:24:44,149 --> 00:24:40,559 the following day on february 7th a 579 00:24:47,750 --> 00:24:44,159 little after 9 20 p.m in okinawa japan 580 00:24:50,630 --> 00:24:47,760 the crew of an f-94 starfire witnessed a 581 00:24:53,590 --> 00:24:50,640 bright orange object that changed color 582 00:24:55,909 --> 00:24:53,600 from red to green several times until 583 00:24:58,549 --> 00:24:55,919 changing color to white with occasional 584 00:25:02,230 --> 00:24:58,559 red and green flashes before finally 585 00:25:04,149 --> 00:25:02,240 glowing a steady uninterrupted white 586 00:25:07,390 --> 00:25:04,159 in the air intelligence information 587 00:25:11,029 --> 00:25:07,400 report the radar at a control tower over 588 00:25:13,269 --> 00:25:11,039 160 miles away also registered an 589 00:25:15,750 --> 00:25:13,279 unidentified object 590 00:25:17,669 --> 00:25:15,760 but only very briefly 591 00:25:19,909 --> 00:25:17,679 after one sweep the object had 592 00:25:22,630 --> 00:25:19,919 disappeared from the monitor 593 00:25:24,470 --> 00:25:22,640 the pilot continued to view the object 594 00:25:25,909 --> 00:25:24,480 both with a naked eye and with 595 00:25:28,230 --> 00:25:25,919 binoculars 596 00:25:31,350 --> 00:25:28,240 the crew however all of whom witnessed a 597 00:25:33,669 --> 00:25:31,360 strange object were undecided on certain 598 00:25:36,470 --> 00:25:33,679 details of the sighting 599 00:25:39,110 --> 00:25:36,480 some for example claimed the object was 600 00:25:41,669 --> 00:25:39,120 quote whirring while hovering while 601 00:25:44,230 --> 00:25:41,679 others thought it was motionless 602 00:25:46,549 --> 00:25:44,240 although the sighting is unexplained the 603 00:25:48,470 --> 00:25:46,559 investigation would suggest it could 604 00:25:50,390 --> 00:25:48,480 have been a weather balloon as many had 605 00:25:53,269 --> 00:25:50,400 been released from multiple global 606 00:25:56,070 --> 00:25:53,279 weather stations at this time 607 00:25:59,350 --> 00:25:56,080 four nights later on february 11th the 608 00:26:02,310 --> 00:25:59,360 crew of an air force c-119 aircraft 609 00:26:04,470 --> 00:26:02,320 traveling between tunis to tripoli 610 00:26:07,029 --> 00:26:04,480 witnessed a strange object that began 611 00:26:08,789 --> 00:26:07,039 following their aircraft at just before 612 00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:08,799 9pm 613 00:26:13,190 --> 00:26:10,880 according to the since declassified 614 00:26:15,430 --> 00:26:13,200 report the object appeared very bright 615 00:26:17,269 --> 00:26:15,440 with a halo of diffused light 616 00:26:19,190 --> 00:26:17,279 surrounding it 617 00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:19,200 the crew noticed the strange glowing 618 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:21,760 object off their right wing and appeared 619 00:26:27,029 --> 00:26:24,720 to follow them for just short of an hour 620 00:26:28,549 --> 00:26:27,039 before it began to descend 621 00:26:30,630 --> 00:26:28,559 although two of the crew members were 622 00:26:33,190 --> 00:26:30,640 not certain what the object was the 623 00:26:34,950 --> 00:26:33,200 remaining four believed it was something 624 00:26:36,710 --> 00:26:34,960 out of the ordinary 625 00:26:38,950 --> 00:26:36,720 but according to the project blue book 626 00:26:42,230 --> 00:26:38,960 investigation the sighting was most 627 00:26:46,149 --> 00:26:42,240 likely attributed to venus 628 00:26:48,950 --> 00:26:46,159 two days later at 2 35 a.m on february 629 00:26:52,789 --> 00:26:48,960 13th back in the united states the 630 00:26:55,190 --> 00:26:52,799 pilots and crew of a b-36 aircraft over 631 00:26:57,830 --> 00:26:55,200 carswell air force base at fort worth 632 00:26:59,990 --> 00:26:57,840 texas witnessed three strange lights 633 00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:00,000 approaching their aircraft 634 00:27:04,149 --> 00:27:02,080 with clear and calm weather at the time 635 00:27:07,669 --> 00:27:04,159 of the sighting the details of the 636 00:27:09,590 --> 00:27:07,679 objects were very detailed indeed 637 00:27:11,669 --> 00:27:09,600 each glowed white with the same 638 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:11,679 intensity and each had a blue green 639 00:27:15,909 --> 00:27:13,520 light in the middle when they first 640 00:27:19,510 --> 00:27:15,919 appeared they were quote stacked in 641 00:27:21,110 --> 00:27:19,520 vertical echelon approximately 500 feet 642 00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:21,120 apart 643 00:27:24,630 --> 00:27:23,200 as the crew watched them they noticed 644 00:27:27,269 --> 00:27:24,640 how one of the lights suddenly 645 00:27:29,430 --> 00:27:27,279 accelerated toward them before coming to 646 00:27:31,430 --> 00:27:29,440 a complete stop 647 00:27:33,350 --> 00:27:31,440 the remaining two lights did the same 648 00:27:35,750 --> 00:27:33,360 moments later 649 00:27:38,549 --> 00:27:35,760 the lights continued to move around in a 650 00:27:41,190 --> 00:27:38,559 controlled manner before moving away at 651 00:27:44,070 --> 00:27:41,200 great speed climbing vertically and 652 00:27:46,230 --> 00:27:44,080 disappearing out of sight 653 00:27:48,549 --> 00:27:46,240 in total the glowing objects remained in 654 00:27:50,149 --> 00:27:48,559 sight for around 15 minutes before 655 00:27:51,990 --> 00:27:50,159 disappearing 656 00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:52,000 much like the other sightings during 657 00:27:58,870 --> 00:27:54,960 this period between the end of 1952 in 658 00:28:01,110 --> 00:27:58,880 the start of 1953 this incident remains 659 00:28:03,750 --> 00:28:01,120 unexplained 660 00:28:06,549 --> 00:28:03,760 so given all of these cases between 661 00:28:08,470 --> 00:28:06,559 these two years with military aircraft 662 00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:08,480 what we know for certain is that 663 00:28:13,669 --> 00:28:10,640 multiple trained pilots witnessed 664 00:28:19,269 --> 00:28:13,679 something very strange that for the most 665 00:28:24,149 --> 00:28:21,430 what's up guys ryan dropping in to wish 666 00:28:26,149 --> 00:28:24,159 you all a very happy halloween season 667 00:28:29,430 --> 00:28:26,159 and what better way to celebrate than 668 00:28:32,310 --> 00:28:29,440 with jim harold's campfire podcast with 669 00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:32,320 over 500 episodes of campfire you'll 670 00:28:37,510 --> 00:28:34,960 hear stories that will bend your reality 671 00:28:39,909 --> 00:28:37,520 and leave you truly spooked 672 00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:39,919 the concept is pretty simple 673 00:28:45,590 --> 00:28:42,799 jim talks to regular folks about strange 674 00:28:48,630 --> 00:28:45,600 stuff that happens to them and yes that 675 00:28:51,909 --> 00:28:48,640 includes ufos and uaps along with 676 00:28:54,870 --> 00:28:51,919 cryptids and of course ghosts 677 00:28:57,510 --> 00:28:54,880 now not all the stories are horrifying 678 00:29:00,230 --> 00:28:57,520 some are pretty heartwarming like a 679 00:29:02,630 --> 00:29:00,240 visit from a past loved one or a 680 00:29:05,909 --> 00:29:02,640 peaceful near-death experience 681 00:29:08,549 --> 00:29:05,919 regardless they are true and fascinating 682 00:29:11,669 --> 00:29:08,559 stories as told by ordinary people 683 00:29:12,470 --> 00:29:11,679 who've had extraordinary experiences 684 00:29:14,789 --> 00:29:12,480 so 685 00:29:17,830 --> 00:29:14,799 pull up a log and tune in to jim 686 00:29:20,630 --> 00:29:17,840 herald's campfire on apple podcasts 687 00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:20,640 spotify or wherever you listen to 688 00:29:23,510 --> 00:29:22,240 somewhere in the skies 689 00:29:29,510 --> 00:29:23,520 and remember 690 00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:31,750 we should perhaps at this point remind 691 00:29:37,029 --> 00:29:34,240 ourselves of the desire of those at the 692 00:29:38,870 --> 00:29:37,039 top of project blue book to attempt to 693 00:29:40,470 --> 00:29:38,880 undermine the sightings they were 694 00:29:42,630 --> 00:29:40,480 investigating 695 00:29:44,710 --> 00:29:42,640 this was no more telling than when 696 00:29:47,190 --> 00:29:44,720 project blue book spokesperson for the 697 00:29:49,990 --> 00:29:47,200 air force lieutenant colonel lawrence j 698 00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:50,000 tacker and project blue book director 699 00:29:55,510 --> 00:29:52,000 major hector quintanilla were 700 00:29:58,070 --> 00:29:55,520 interviewed in 1966 under the auspices 701 00:30:00,630 --> 00:29:58,080 of the department of defense 702 00:30:01,669 --> 00:30:00,640 major glendalou what's the uh record so 703 00:30:04,389 --> 00:30:01,679 far 704 00:30:06,470 --> 00:30:04,399 today we have over ten thousand cases of 705 00:30:09,110 --> 00:30:06,480 bipartisan air force 706 00:30:10,389 --> 00:30:09,120 of which 646 of these remaining 707 00:30:12,389 --> 00:30:10,399 identifiers 708 00:30:14,630 --> 00:30:12,399 that's not to say that 709 00:30:16,230 --> 00:30:14,640 we could not have identified more cases 710 00:30:19,029 --> 00:30:16,240 if we had gotten to the observable 711 00:30:20,870 --> 00:30:19,039 quicker and check the localization the 712 00:30:23,590 --> 00:30:20,880 air force has been accused from time to 713 00:30:24,710 --> 00:30:23,600 time of hiding information about ufo 714 00:30:25,590 --> 00:30:24,720 what do you have to say to that kind of 715 00:30:28,389 --> 00:30:25,600 happening 716 00:30:30,149 --> 00:30:28,399 these charges are absolutely untrue 717 00:30:33,430 --> 00:30:30,159 actually the united states air force 718 00:30:34,950 --> 00:30:33,440 releases statistics on the ufo phenomena 719 00:30:37,350 --> 00:30:34,960 through the department of defense press 720 00:30:39,350 --> 00:30:37,360 test periodically and we've always 721 00:30:42,710 --> 00:30:39,360 honored accredited media when they want 722 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:42,720 to investigate a given specific signing 723 00:30:46,389 --> 00:30:44,399 there's nothing to have there's nothing 724 00:30:49,110 --> 00:30:46,399 to hide at all is there anything in the 725 00:30:51,310 --> 00:30:49,120 files either classified or unclassified 726 00:30:53,909 --> 00:30:51,320 that would indicate that there may be 727 00:30:56,470 --> 00:30:53,919 extraterrestrial visitors over here 728 00:30:58,230 --> 00:30:56,480 first of all the project is completely 729 00:30:59,830 --> 00:30:58,240 unclassified 730 00:31:01,350 --> 00:30:59,840 and there is nothing in the records that 731 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:01,360 should indicate that we have been 732 00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:04,559 visited by any advanced civilization 733 00:31:09,509 --> 00:31:06,320 how does the air force look upon people 734 00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:09,519 who uh make reports of uf4 do they look 735 00:31:13,350 --> 00:31:11,360 on them as a qualified attorney 736 00:31:15,509 --> 00:31:13,360 yes they do look on them as qualified 737 00:31:19,269 --> 00:31:15,519 observers actually most people who 738 00:31:21,669 --> 00:31:19,279 report a ufo sighting are patriotic 739 00:31:23,590 --> 00:31:21,679 citizens who have been mystified by 740 00:31:26,710 --> 00:31:23,600 something that they've seen 741 00:31:29,430 --> 00:31:26,720 and through a patriotic sense report it 742 00:31:32,149 --> 00:31:29,440 to the local law enforcement officials 743 00:31:34,230 --> 00:31:32,159 or to the united states air force base 744 00:31:35,590 --> 00:31:34,240 near that well how about the tracking 745 00:31:38,230 --> 00:31:35,600 and detection facilities of the air 746 00:31:40,149 --> 00:31:38,240 force itself how does this country go 747 00:31:43,029 --> 00:31:40,159 well actually uh to begin with the 748 00:31:44,630 --> 00:31:43,039 united states air force is charged by an 749 00:31:46,310 --> 00:31:44,640 act of congress with the air defense of 750 00:31:48,149 --> 00:31:46,320 the united states and the north american 751 00:31:51,269 --> 00:31:48,159 air defense command and the air defense 752 00:31:53,830 --> 00:31:51,279 command have space tracking facilities 753 00:31:56,070 --> 00:31:53,840 which are constantly on the alert 24 754 00:31:58,470 --> 00:31:56,080 hours a day we're interested in anything 755 00:32:00,310 --> 00:31:58,480 that flies in our atmosphere well how 756 00:32:01,509 --> 00:32:00,320 about ufo reports in other countries how 757 00:32:04,789 --> 00:32:01,519 are they happening 758 00:32:07,110 --> 00:32:04,799 ufos actually occur worldwide however 759 00:32:08,230 --> 00:32:07,120 the united states is the only country in 760 00:32:10,470 --> 00:32:08,240 the world that 761 00:32:11,909 --> 00:32:10,480 places as much emphasis on the 762 00:32:13,990 --> 00:32:11,919 phenomenon 763 00:32:16,230 --> 00:32:14,000 other countries place a burden of proof 764 00:32:17,669 --> 00:32:16,240 on the observer and not on their answer 765 00:32:20,950 --> 00:32:17,679 that would make your job a lot easier if 766 00:32:27,190 --> 00:32:24,230 as quoted earlier ufo researcher and 767 00:32:30,630 --> 00:32:27,200 former marine corps naval aviator major 768 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:30,640 donald kehoe had a rather tumultuous 769 00:32:35,590 --> 00:32:32,960 relationship with the united states air 770 00:32:38,870 --> 00:32:35,600 force when it came to their stance and 771 00:32:41,350 --> 00:32:38,880 handling of the ufo issue after looking 772 00:32:44,870 --> 00:32:41,360 heavily into the many close calls with 773 00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:44,880 ufos that military aviators had kehoe 774 00:32:48,950 --> 00:32:46,480 would state the following when 775 00:32:51,830 --> 00:32:48,960 interviewed by noted american journalist 776 00:32:53,590 --> 00:32:51,840 mike wallace in 1958 777 00:32:56,149 --> 00:32:53,600 major kehoe first of all let me ask you 778 00:32:57,269 --> 00:32:56,159 this most people in the united states in 779 00:32:58,870 --> 00:32:57,279 spite of the fact that i say that 780 00:33:00,389 --> 00:32:58,880 millions do believe i think you will 781 00:33:01,350 --> 00:33:00,399 agree that most people in the united 782 00:33:03,509 --> 00:33:01,360 states 783 00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:03,519 don't believe in flying sauces from 784 00:33:06,549 --> 00:33:04,720 outer space 785 00:33:09,350 --> 00:33:06,559 they probably hold the view 786 00:33:11,509 --> 00:33:09,360 of columnist bob considine 787 00:33:14,950 --> 00:33:11,519 who wrote that flying saucers are 788 00:33:18,389 --> 00:33:14,960 products of for the most part quote 789 00:33:20,710 --> 00:33:18,399 pranksters half wits cranks publicity 790 00:33:22,950 --> 00:33:20,720 hounds fanatics in general and 791

--> 00:33:32,640 dayton in fact the colonel went even a 798 00:33:36,549 --> 00:33:34,320 little farther and he said behind every 799 00:33:38,630 --> 00:33:36,559 sighting was an idiot a crackpot a 800 00:33:39,990 --> 00:33:38,640 religious fanatic that included a lot of 801 00:33:41,110 --> 00:33:40,000 high-ranking air force pilots 802 00:33:43,029 --> 00:33:41,120 incidentally 803 00:33:44,710 --> 00:33:43,039 and many airline captains 804 00:33:46,710 --> 00:33:44,720 people who were qualified to see these 805 00:33:48,310 --> 00:33:46,720 things but he's just following on in air 806 00:33:49,750 --> 00:33:48,320 force policy 807 00:33:54,149 --> 00:33:49,760 well now you're not suggesting that bob 808 00:33:57,590 --> 00:33:55,590 i mean the colonel no i have every 809

00:34:04,870 --> 00:34:03,279 and screwballs 813 00:34:06,149 --> 00:34:04,880 are responsible for the stories about 814 00:34:08,389 --> 00:34:06,159 flying socks 815 00:34:10,790 --> 00:34:08,399

last uh 10 years what we 827 00:34:34,869 --> 00:34:32,720 call the modern phase have been 828 00:34:36,710 --> 00:34:34,879 sightings before then there have been 829 00:34:39,030 --> 00:34:36,720 some accidents air force pilots chasing 830 00:34:40,950 --> 00:34:39,040 these things captain mantell was killed 831 00:34:42,790 --> 00:34:40,960 chasing one in 48 832 00:34:45,990 --> 00:34:42,800 and the two pilots disappeared chasing 833 00:34:48,310 --> 00:34:46,000 one in 53 over lake superior but the air 834 00:34:50,629 --> 00:34:48,320 force has said time and time again this 835 00:34:52,149 --> 00:34:50,639 is a quote from richard horner assistant 836 00:34:54,069 --> 00:34:52,159 secretary of the air force for research 837 00:34:56,550 --> 00:34:54,079 and development all but a small 838 00:34:59,190 --> 00:34:56,560 percentage of these reports 839 00:35:01,190 --> 00:34:59,200 of unidentified flying objects have been 840 00:35:03,829 --> 00:35:01,200 definitely attributed to natural 841 00:35:06,550 --> 00:35:03,839 phenomena that are neither mysterious 842 00:35:07,910 --> 00:35:06,560 nor dire end quote weather balloons 843 00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:07,920 mirages 844 00:35:12,630 --> 00:35:10,800 ordinary sky phenomena like meteors uh 845 00:35:14,230 --> 00:35:12,640 airplanes themselves 846 00:35:16,310 --> 00:35:14,240 what about that 847 00:35:17,990 --> 00:35:16,320 in 1952 there was an intelligence 848 00:35:18,870 --> 00:35:18,000 analysis of the maneuvers of these 849 00:35:20,630 --> 00:35:18,880 things 850 00:35:23,510 --> 00:35:20,640 as seen by radar 851 00:35:25,270 --> 00:35:23,520 triangulation radar photographs 852 00:35:27,190 --> 00:35:25,280 and in 53 853 00:35:28,790 --> 00:35:27,200 the central intelligence agency and the 854 00:35:30,710 --> 00:35:28,800 air force had a special panel of 855 00:35:32,550 --> 00:35:30,720 scientists meet the pentagon 856 00:35:34,069 --> 00:35:32,560 to tell them what to do 857 00:35:35,910 --> 00:35:34,079 and after they got through this group 858 00:35:38,390 --> 00:35:35,920 said you don't have proof that these 859 00:35:39,670 --> 00:35:38,400 things exist not scientific proof 860 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:39,680 but you have a very strong 861 00:35:43,910 --> 00:35:41,920 circumstantial case we suggest you 862 00:35:46,150 --> 00:35:43,920 quadruple investigation set up special 863 00:35:47,190 --> 00:35:46,160 observation post in the meantime release 864 00:35:48,790 --> 00:35:47,200 everything you've got the american 865 00:35:50,550 --> 00:35:48,800 people 866 00:35:52,390 --> 00:35:50,560 it's quite clear that throughout the 867 00:35:55,349 --> 00:35:52,400 entire run of the united states air 868 00:35:57,589 --> 00:35:55,359 force projects sign grudge and blue book 869 00:35:59,990 --> 00:35:57,599 that some good work was done in 870 00:36:02,150 --> 00:36:00,000 investigating ufo incidents which had 871 00:36:04,230 --> 00:36:02,160 military involvement but it was even 872 00:36:06,550 --> 00:36:04,240 more clear that much of the work carried 873 00:36:09,349 --> 00:36:06,560 out was to calm public nerves when it 874 00:36:11,829 --> 00:36:09,359 came to the potential threat aspect of 875 00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:11,839 the ufo phenomenon and this was no more 876 00:36:17,270 --> 00:36:14,560 apparent than when noted astronomer and 877 00:36:20,069 --> 00:36:17,280 consultant for project blue book j ellen 878 00:36:22,390 --> 00:36:20,079 heineck would go on the record stating 879 00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:22,400 his dismay with the way in which the 880 00:36:27,750 --> 00:36:25,040 united states air force handled the ufo 881 00:36:29,430 --> 00:36:27,760 situation especially when the condon 882 00:36:33,510 --> 00:36:29,440 report was finally presented to the 883 00:36:35,750 --> 00:36:33,520 public in 1968 this report in the 884 00:36:37,670 --> 00:36:35,760 committee that came to its conclusions 885 00:36:41,109 --> 00:36:37,680 was funded by the united states air 886 00:36:44,390 --> 00:36:41,119 force from 1966 to 1968 at the 887 00:36:47,109 --> 00:36:44,400 university of colorado to study ufos 888 00:36:49,670 --> 00:36:47,119 under the direction of physicist edward 889 00:36:51,670 --> 00:36:49,680 condon it comprised the case files from 890 00:36:53,510 --> 00:36:51,680 the air force's project blue book 891 00:36:55,670 --> 00:36:53,520 national investigations committee on 892 00:36:58,230 --> 00:36:55,680 aerial phenomena aerial phenomena 893 00:37:01,109 --> 00:36:58,240 research organization and investigating 894 00:37:03,510 --> 00:37:01,119 sightings reported during the project 895 00:37:05,589 --> 00:37:03,520 here is what heinek had to say about how 896 00:37:09,069 --> 00:37:05,599 it was handled in an interview with 897 00:37:12,230 --> 00:37:09,079 television host and mentalist kreskin in 898 00:37:14,710 --> 00:37:12,240 1972. i was a scientific consultant of 899 00:37:17,430 --> 00:37:14,720 the air force for 20 years in fact i got 900 00:37:19,670 --> 00:37:17,440 into it as because i was an astronomer 901 00:37:20,829 --> 00:37:19,680 the air force needed an astronomer to 902 00:37:24,230 --> 00:37:20,839 weed out 903 00:37:26,150 --> 00:37:24,240 the meteors the twinkling stars and 904 00:37:28,630 --> 00:37:26,160 things like that and we found that about 905 00:37:30,470 --> 00:37:28,640 30 percent could be explained that way 906 00:37:33,589 --> 00:37:30,480 and another 50 percent or so could be 907 00:37:35,589 --> 00:37:33,599 explained as aircraft balloons and so 908 00:37:38,150 --> 00:37:35,599 forth but there was this hardcore 909 00:37:40,310 --> 00:37:38,160 residue of 15 to 20 percent that high 910 00:37:43,589 --> 00:37:40,320 that just couldn't be explained i think 911 00:37:45,670 --> 00:37:43,599 uh uh some of us who followed this whole 912 00:37:48,150 --> 00:37:45,680 phenomena became interested in the 913 00:37:51,190 --> 00:37:48,160 condon report i guess which is how many 914 00:37:53,430 --> 00:37:51,200 years ago that it reached a fruition or 915 00:37:57,030 --> 00:37:53,440 did it reach a client it was issued in 916 00:37:58,710 --> 00:37:57,040 1969 uh it seems more recent yeah what 917 00:38:00,069 --> 00:37:58,720 was what was the conclusion what's your 918 00:38:01,670 --> 00:38:00,079 feeling about that 919 00:38:04,150 --> 00:38:01,680 well my feeling is that the condon 920 00:38:05,670 --> 00:38:04,160 report was a travesty on science yeah it 921 00:38:06,710 --> 00:38:05,680 just simply 922 00:38:08,950 --> 00:38:06,720 was 923 00:38:11,349 --> 00:38:08,960 beside them the method of methods used 924 00:38:13,670 --> 00:38:11,359 in fact dr condon didn't investigate one 925 00:38:16,069 --> 00:38:13,680 case he didn't no personally he never 926 00:38:18,230 --> 00:38:16,079 investigated a single case and yet they 927 00:38:19,190 --> 00:38:18,240 came they they came out negative but 928 00:38:21,750 --> 00:38:19,200 they didn't you don't feel like 929 00:38:23,750 --> 00:38:21,760 presenting a fair picture well actually 930 00:38:26,230 --> 00:38:23,760 if you read the report from cover to 931 00:38:27,990 --> 00:38:26,240 cover and that's difficult because 947 932 00:38:29,510 --> 00:38:28,000 pages sounds like the warren commission 933 00:38:31,270 --> 00:38:29,520 yeah you'll you'll realize that there's 934 00:38:34,630 --> 00:38:31,280 a very real problem there because the 935 00:38:36,230 --> 00:38:34,640 condon committee was unable to explain 936 00:38:38,150 --> 00:38:36,240 one quarter of the cases that were 937 00:38:39,990 --> 00:38:38,160 submitted that they studied 938 00:38:41,990 --> 00:38:40,000 i'm curious and i think everyone is now 939 00:38:43,670 --> 00:38:42,000 thinking the obvious question how did 940 00:38:46,310 --> 00:38:43,680 they handle that in their report the 941 00:38:49,190 --> 00:38:46,320 ones they couldn't explain well very 942 00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:49,200 nicely and very rightly is the word 943 00:38:54,310 --> 00:38:51,839 dr condon wrote this the summary 944 00:38:56,950 --> 00:38:54,320 and completely neglected the contents of 945 00:39:02,710 --> 00:38:59,589 whether it's dramatic ufo encounters of 946 00:39:04,710 --> 00:39:02,720 b-29 bombers in the gulf of mexico or 947 00:39:07,430 --> 00:39:04,720 the countless other sightings reported 948 00:39:10,550 --> 00:39:07,440 by trained observers and aviators the 949 00:39:13,349 --> 00:39:10,560 skies have been plagued with close calls 950 00:39:15,670 --> 00:39:13,359 close encounters and near 951 00:39:18,310 --> 00:39:15,680 with phenomena that refuse to adhere to 952 00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:18,320 our known physics our known technology 953 00:39:23,109 --> 00:39:21,119 and our known airspace 954 00:39:25,510 --> 00:39:23,119 from the very beginning of the modern 955 00:39:28,230 --> 00:39:25,520 ufo era the united states government has 956 00:39:30,790 --> 00:39:28,240 attempted to find answers while also 957 00:39:32,390 --> 00:39:30,800 ignoring or flat out denying those 958 00:39:35,270 --> 00:39:32,400 answers as well 959 00:39:37,349 --> 00:39:35,280 it's a vicious cycle that began at the 960 00:39:39,990 --> 00:39:37,359 very onset of the us government's 961 00:39:42,150 --> 00:39:40,000 involvement in the ufo issue 962 00:39:44,310 --> 00:39:42,160 as both donald kehoe and jay ellen 963 00:39:47,589 --> 00:39:44,320 heineck pointed out these incidents 964 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:47,599 persist with alarming continuation but 965 00:39:51,270 --> 00:39:49,839 are constantly downplayed by the us 966 00:39:53,750 --> 00:39:51,280 government 967 00:39:55,349 --> 00:39:53,760 but something seems to have changed in 968 00:39:57,430 --> 00:39:55,359 the past few years 969 00:39:59,990 --> 00:39:57,440 and even more so in the past few months 970 00:40:01,829 --> 00:40:00,000 and weeks as of the release of this 971 00:40:03,550 --> 00:40:01,839 episode 972 00:40:06,150 --> 00:40:03,560 on june 25th 973 00:40:08,150 --> 00:40:06,160 2021 the office of the director of 974 00:40:12,069 --> 00:40:08,160 national intelligence released a 975 00:40:15,430 --> 00:40:12,079 preliminary assessment on ufos or uap 976 00:40:18,710 --> 00:40:15,440 unidentified aerial phenomena 977 00:40:22,470 --> 00:40:18,720 this was done by the uap task force as 978 00:40:24,870 --> 00:40:22,480 requested by an act of congress in 2020 979 00:40:27,109 --> 00:40:24,880 this task force established within the 980 00:40:29,670 --> 00:40:27,119 department of defense and the office of 981 00:40:32,550 --> 00:40:29,680 naval intelligence would look into uap 982 00:40:34,390 --> 00:40:32,560 reports by military witnesses 983 00:40:37,270 --> 00:40:34,400 while the assessment didn't share much 984 00:40:41,030 --> 00:40:37,280 in terms of detailed case reports it did 985 00:40:43,589 --> 00:40:41,040 show that out of 144 cases reported by 986 00:40:46,390 --> 00:40:43,599 military witnesses and captured on 987 00:40:49,670 --> 00:40:46,400 cameras radar and various other sensor 988 00:40:50,950 --> 00:40:49,680 platforms only one case could be readily 989 00:40:52,790 --> 00:40:50,960 explained 990 00:40:55,510 --> 00:40:52,800 one case 991 00:40:58,470 --> 00:40:55,520 on page six of the assessment it stated 992 00:41:01,190 --> 00:40:58,480 that the uap task force had quote 11 993 00:41:04,630 --> 00:41:01,200 reports of documented instances in which 994 00:41:06,390 --> 00:41:04,640 pilots reported near misses with a uap 995 00:41:08,710 --> 00:41:06,400 end quote 996 00:41:11,589 --> 00:41:08,720 so were these near misses as compared to 997 00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:11,599 those from 1952 onward with foreign 998 00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:14,160 adversaries top secret american tech 999 00:41:19,190 --> 00:41:16,640 that the pilots weren't privy to 1000 00:41:20,470 --> 00:41:19,200 the pentagon assessment certainly didn't 1001 00:41:22,950 --> 00:41:20,480 think so 1002 00:41:25,510 --> 00:41:22,960 here's former a-tip director luis 1003 00:41:27,510 --> 00:41:25,520 elizondo on this very issue in an 1004 00:41:29,510 --> 00:41:27,520 interview with the washington post 1005 00:41:30,870 --> 00:41:29,520 bottom line is up up until very recently 1006 00:41:32,950 --> 00:41:30,880 there are really only only three 1007 00:41:34,950 --> 00:41:32,960 possibilities of what this could be and 1008 00:41:37,990 --> 00:41:34,960 the first possibility is that it is some 1009 00:41:39,829 --> 00:41:38,000 sort of secret u.s tech that somehow uh 1010 00:41:42,390 --> 00:41:39,839 we have managed to keep secret even from 1011 00:41:44,470 --> 00:41:42,400 ourselves for for a long period of time 1012 00:41:46,390 --> 00:41:44,480 the second option is that it's some sort 1013 00:41:48,710 --> 00:41:46,400 of foreign adversarial technology that 1014 00:41:51,190 --> 00:41:48,720 has somehow managed to technologically 1015 00:41:53,030 --> 00:41:51,200 leapfrog ahead of our country uh despite 1016 00:41:55,990 --> 00:41:53,040 having a a fairly robust and 1017 00:41:57,990 --> 00:41:56,000 comprehensive intelligence apparatus and 1018 00:41:59,829 --> 00:41:58,000 of course the the third option is is 1019 00:42:01,670 --> 00:41:59,839 something quite entirely different it's 1020 00:42:04,470 --> 00:42:01,680 it's a it's a different paradigm 1021 00:42:06,390 --> 00:42:04,480 completely now as of this week we now 1022 00:42:09,270 --> 00:42:06,400 know through some of the discussions at 1023 00:42:11,910 --> 00:42:09,280 senior level leadership that uh this 1024 00:42:15,030 --> 00:42:11,920 this report has definitively stated once 1025 00:42:16,790 --> 00:42:15,040 and for all that it's not our technology 1026 00:42:18,630 --> 00:42:16,800 and that's that's hugely important for 1027 00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:18,640 30 years there has always been this 1028 00:42:22,470 --> 00:42:20,480 undercurrent if you will these 1029 00:42:26,790 --> 00:42:22,480 conspiracies that there was some sort of 1030 00:42:28,870 --> 00:42:26,800 tr3 b program and some sort of of super 1031 00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:28,880 special technology that has been 1032 00:42:32,630 --> 00:42:30,880 implemented and we've been uh just been 1033 00:42:34,870 --> 00:42:32,640 very careless about it and i think that 1034 00:42:36,870 --> 00:42:34,880 argument was finally put to bed this 1035 00:42:39,030 --> 00:42:36,880 week uh so that really only leads to 1036 00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:39,040 other options and that's again it's for 1037 00:42:43,589 --> 00:42:41,680 an adversarial or it's it's it's 1038 00:42:45,270 --> 00:42:43,599 something quite different and i think 1039 00:42:46,710 --> 00:42:45,280 we're now beginning to learn as we've 1040 00:42:47,990 --> 00:42:46,720 heard from the director of national 1041 00:42:49,990 --> 00:42:48,000 intelligence and i can certainly tell 1042 00:42:52,069 --> 00:42:50,000 you from my experience that we're pretty 1043 00:42:54,390 --> 00:42:52,079 confident that it's not russian or 1044 00:42:56,550 --> 00:42:54,400 chinese technology 1045 00:42:58,390 --> 00:42:56,560 so it would appear our military and 1046 00:43:00,630 --> 00:42:58,400 governmental bodies here in the united 1047 00:43:03,270 --> 00:43:00,640 states are no closer to truly 1048 00:43:05,510 --> 00:43:03,280 understanding what these ufos are or 1049 00:43:08,069 --> 00:43:05,520 aren't in our skies 1050 00:43:11,349 --> 00:43:08,079 it isn't ours it isn't another country 1051 00:43:13,750 --> 00:43:11,359 or nation so what is it 1052 00:43:15,829 --> 00:43:13,760 obviously there is no one single 1053 00:43:18,630 --> 00:43:15,839 explanation and it would appear that 1054 00:43:21,990 --> 00:43:18,640 like a snowflake every ufo seems to be 1055 00:43:24,829 --> 00:43:22,000 different whether by design or by 1056 00:43:27,190 --> 00:43:24,839 perception and interpretation of the 1057 00:43:28,069 --> 00:43:27,200 observer but the fact of the matter is 1058 00:43:29,990 --> 00:43:28,079 this 1059 00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:30,000 while projects have come and gone like 1060 00:43:35,589 --> 00:43:32,880 sign grudge in arguably blue book and 1061 00:43:37,510 --> 00:43:35,599 even atip it would appear that the us 1062 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:37,520 government is attempting through the 1063 00:43:41,829 --> 00:43:39,680 passage of several bills by the senate 1064 00:43:44,150 --> 00:43:41,839 intelligence committee and the armed 1065 00:43:47,589 --> 00:43:44,160 services committee in relation to the 1066 00:43:50,309 --> 00:43:47,599 2022 national defense authorization act 1067 00:43:54,470 --> 00:43:50,319 to once and for all establish a 1068 00:43:57,270 --> 00:43:54,480 permanent office to study ufos 1069 00:43:59,990 --> 00:43:57,280 this story was simultaneously broken by 1070 00:44:02,069 --> 00:44:00,000 researcher dean johnson and also by 1071 00:44:05,670 --> 00:44:02,079 investigative journalist for debrief 1072 00:44:07,990 --> 00:44:05,680 media tim mcmillan here is tim giving 1073 00:44:10,069 --> 00:44:08,000 his thoughts on this new development in 1074 00:44:12,150 --> 00:44:10,079 an interview with the unidentified 1075 00:44:13,589 --> 00:44:12,160 celebrity review the one that was 1076 00:44:16,230 --> 00:44:13,599 recently coming out is the armed 1077 00:44:18,309 --> 00:44:16,240 services committee bill now this one was 1078 00:44:20,390 --> 00:44:18,319 a bit different and pretty surprising 1079 00:44:22,230 --> 00:44:20,400 this is the one that would go into the 1080 00:44:25,349 --> 00:44:22,240 the national defense act which is the 1081 00:44:29,109 --> 00:44:25,359 big bill they spend trillions of dollars 1082 00:44:33,510 --> 00:44:29,119 but what it did is it set legislation in 1083 00:44:36,309 --> 00:44:33,520 place that would create a formal office 1084 00:44:38,069 --> 00:44:36,319 so no longer we have a uap task force 1085 00:44:40,470 --> 00:44:38,079 and in fact the bill says 1086 00:44:41,990 --> 00:44:40,480 upon creation the office the uap task 1087 00:44:44,150 --> 00:44:42,000 force will be terminated and you would 1088 00:44:46,230 --> 00:44:44,160 have a permanent office now it probably 1089 00:44:47,750 --> 00:44:46,240 seems silly like well obviously the task 1090 00:44:49,589 --> 00:44:47,760 force has to work out of an office like 1091 00:44:51,430 --> 00:44:49,599 i don't understand what does this really 1092 00:44:54,390 --> 00:44:51,440 mean but in the in the highly 1093 00:44:56,550 --> 00:44:54,400 bureaucratic ridiculous world of the us 1094 00:44:58,390 --> 00:44:56,560 government what this does is it does 1095 00:45:01,109 --> 00:44:58,400 create the framework for having a 1096 00:45:03,430 --> 00:45:01,119 permanent structure now so the task 1097 00:45:05,750 --> 00:45:03,440 force was always temporary 1098 00:45:07,670 --> 00:45:05,760 and and you've probably seen i know 1099 00:45:09,270 --> 00:45:07,680 we've reported on it i know some other 1100 00:45:11,030 --> 00:45:09,280 outlets i think have mentioned it that 1101 00:45:13,190 --> 00:45:11,040 you've had different leadership kind of 1102 00:45:15,670 --> 00:45:13,200 shuffle around in the task force you 1103 00:45:18,309 --> 00:45:15,680 know it's a fluid that's because they're 1104 00:45:20,790 --> 00:45:18,319 temporary structures somebody can ask to 1105 00:45:22,069 --> 00:45:20,800 be a part of it uh even when somebody 1106 00:45:24,069 --> 00:45:22,079 asks to be a part of it they can be 1107 00:45:25,510 --> 00:45:24,079 removed because they have another job 1108 00:45:27,430 --> 00:45:25,520 formally so 1109 00:45:29,670 --> 00:45:27,440 in essence what would happen is if this 1110 00:45:32,230 --> 00:45:29,680 bill passes you will have a formal 1111 00:45:34,230 --> 00:45:32,240 office now so now it is a permanent 1112 00:45:36,630 --> 00:45:34,240 structure this is where you don't have 1113 00:45:39,109 --> 00:45:36,640 this revolving door of employees you 1114 00:45:40,870 --> 00:45:39,119 have people who are actually designated 1115 00:45:42,150 --> 00:45:40,880 this is going to be their job it's very 1116 00:45:43,589 --> 00:45:42,160 much um 1117 00:45:44,630 --> 00:45:43,599 in a way i guess you could liken it to 1118 00:45:46,550 --> 00:45:44,640 blue book 1119 00:45:49,109 --> 00:45:46,560 because you know that's probably people 1120 00:45:51,510 --> 00:45:49,119 recognize the most is in and honestly if 1121 00:45:54,950 --> 00:45:51,520 it passes it will be the first time 1122 00:45:58,150 --> 00:45:54,960 since 1968 the u.s government or 69 that 1123 00:45:59,750 --> 00:45:58,160 the us government has a official formal 1124 00:46:03,510 --> 00:45:59,760 ufo office 1125 00:46:06,309 --> 00:46:03,520 so it's a fairly big deal 1126 00:46:08,390 --> 00:46:06,319 so as we wait to see if this bill or any 1127 00:46:11,510 --> 00:46:08,400 other bills are passed and if a 1128 00:46:14,550 --> 00:46:11,520 permanent uap office is established we 1129 00:46:17,190 --> 00:46:14,560 also wait for the inevitable the day 1130 00:46:19,750 --> 00:46:17,200 that one of these uap doesn't just have 1131 00:46:21,910 --> 00:46:19,760 a close call but a full-on collision 1132 00:46:24,069 --> 00:46:21,920 with an aircraft 1133 00:46:26,630 --> 00:46:24,079 christopher plane head science writer 1134 00:46:29,030 --> 00:46:26,640 for debrief media was able to report on 1135 00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:29,040 a very interesting panel that took place 1136 00:46:32,950 --> 00:46:30,720 online recently 1137 00:46:35,510 --> 00:46:32,960 in an article at the debrief plane 1138 00:46:37,510 --> 00:46:35,520 stated that quote on august 6th the 1139 00:46:40,870 --> 00:46:37,520 american institute of aeronautics and 1140 00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:40,880 astronautics held a uap-related safety 1141 00:46:45,670 --> 00:46:42,640 session as part of their annual 1142 00:46:48,710 --> 00:46:45,680 conference the six-member panel featured 1143 00:46:51,910 --> 00:46:48,720 three scientists including one from nasa 1144 00:46:53,910 --> 00:46:51,920 a european space agency project director 1145 00:46:56,470 --> 00:46:53,920 the director of science for the national 1146 00:47:00,309 --> 00:46:56,480 aviation reporting center on anomalous 1147 00:47:04,309 --> 00:47:00,319 phenomena and one former u.s navy pilot 1148 00:47:07,030 --> 00:47:04,319 that pilot was lieutenant ryan graves 1149 00:47:09,349 --> 00:47:07,040 graves claimed that he and fellow pilots 1150 00:47:12,710 --> 00:47:09,359 flying in restricted airspace southeast 1151 00:47:16,390 --> 00:47:12,720 of virginia beach virginia observed ufos 1152 00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:16,400 every day for at least a couple of years 1153 00:47:21,829 --> 00:47:19,200 in fact two of the now famous navy ufo 1154 00:47:23,750 --> 00:47:21,839 videos leaked to the new york times and 1155 00:47:26,230 --> 00:47:23,760 subsequently released by the department 1156 00:47:29,750 --> 00:47:26,240 of defense were captured by members of 1157 00:47:32,230 --> 00:47:29,760 grave squadron in 2015. 1158 00:47:34,549 --> 00:47:32,240 graves had also witnessed several ufos 1159 00:47:36,150 --> 00:47:34,559 himself and explained in this interview 1160 00:47:39,030 --> 00:47:36,160 for the history channel series 1161 00:47:41,829 --> 00:47:39,040 unidentified about the mysterious nature 1162 00:47:43,589 --> 00:47:41,839 of these objects he and his squadron had 1163 00:47:46,710 --> 00:47:43,599 encountered when we talked about the 1164 00:47:48,710 --> 00:47:46,720 visual contact uh when it buzzed by 1165 00:47:51,030 --> 00:47:48,720 it was very likely that that was 1166 00:47:52,790 --> 00:47:51,040 stationary and you know we actually 1167 00:47:55,109 --> 00:47:52,800 buzzed by it because i know it was there 1168 00:47:56,710 --> 00:47:55,119 so it was likely stationary at that time 1169 00:47:58,309 --> 00:47:56,720 and it basically split our section when 1170 00:48:01,190 --> 00:47:58,319 they were in tackling 1171 00:48:02,790 --> 00:48:01,200 um so it wasn't like it was trying to 1172 00:48:04,549 --> 00:48:02,800 merge with us or was making high-speed 1173 00:48:05,829 --> 00:48:04,559 pass or anything like that most likely 1174 00:48:07,670 --> 00:48:05,839 stationary we just didn't know it was 1175 00:48:08,870 --> 00:48:07,680 there or this was you know at a time 1176 00:48:09,910 --> 00:48:08,880 where we weren't even sure if they were 1177 00:48:11,910 --> 00:48:09,920 real or not 1178 00:48:13,670 --> 00:48:11,920 essentially just kind of flew into it 1179 00:48:15,510 --> 00:48:13,680 when i say it was following us i don't 1180 00:48:17,430 --> 00:48:15,520 mean individual aircraft 1181 00:48:18,870 --> 00:48:17,440 i mean wherever we were they were there 1182 00:48:20,630 --> 00:48:18,880 so that could mean two things that could 1183 00:48:22,069 --> 00:48:20,640 mean they were already there 1184 00:48:23,670 --> 00:48:22,079 or they were following the strike group 1185 00:48:25,109 --> 00:48:23,680 but they weren't following individual 1186 00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:25,119 aircrafts 1187 00:48:28,710 --> 00:48:27,040 and of course at this point we were like 1188 00:48:30,150 --> 00:48:28,720 okay well 1189 00:48:31,430 --> 00:48:30,160 clearly there's nothing that we're used 1190 00:48:33,670 --> 00:48:31,440 to seeing out there we submitted a 1191 00:48:35,910 --> 00:48:33,680 safety report saying that there was a 1192 00:48:38,950 --> 00:48:35,920 unidentified object in our working space 1193 00:48:44,150 --> 00:48:42,069 after the panel concluded at the aiaa 1194 00:48:45,910 --> 00:48:44,160 conference graves was chosen to 1195 00:48:48,309 --> 00:48:45,920 summarize what needed to be done when it 1196 00:48:51,430 --> 00:48:48,319 came to both military and commercial 1197 00:48:54,230 --> 00:48:51,440 flights in relation to near misses with 1198 00:48:57,510 --> 00:48:54,240 strange objects and how the issue should 1199 00:48:59,750 --> 00:48:57,520 be handled when it comes to faa protocol 1200 00:49:01,910 --> 00:48:59,760 in reporting ufos 1201 00:49:03,829 --> 00:49:01,920 what needs to happen here isn't isn't 1202 00:49:05,430 --> 00:49:03,839 something where you know we can look to 1203 00:49:07,510 --> 00:49:05,440 you and tell you what needs to be done 1204 00:49:09,829 --> 00:49:07,520 you know we we this is going to require 1205 00:49:13,349 --> 00:49:09,839 a lot of different specialties from 1206 00:49:15,990 --> 00:49:13,359 tactical aviation um uh to physics and 1207 00:49:17,589 --> 00:49:16,000 so you know we need everyone's help on 1208 00:49:20,150 --> 00:49:17,599 this and we need to do it in a way that 1209 00:49:22,790 --> 00:49:20,160 is transparent because at the end of the 1210 00:49:25,109 --> 00:49:22,800 day like i said very pragmatically we're 1211 00:49:26,790 --> 00:49:25,119 flying around objects out there that 1212 00:49:29,349 --> 00:49:26,800 hundreds of miles an hour with people's 1213 00:49:31,190 --> 00:49:29,359 families on board it's just a matter of 1214 00:49:32,710 --> 00:49:31,200 time frankly i'm surprised it hasn't 1215 00:49:34,549 --> 00:49:32,720 happened already 1216 00:49:37,270 --> 00:49:34,559 the fact that we're talking about stigma 1217 00:49:40,309 --> 00:49:37,280 still in a time when people are having 1218 00:49:42,470 --> 00:49:40,319 near misses is disturbing so we need to 1219 00:49:44,069 --> 00:49:42,480 make sure that the military is already 1220 00:49:45,670 --> 00:49:44,079 underway in this process but we need to 1221 00:49:47,670 --> 00:49:45,680 ensure civilian air crew feel 1222 00:49:49,990 --> 00:49:47,680 comfortable submitting aviation safety 1223 00:49:52,470 --> 00:49:50,000 reports related to uap without fear of 1224 00:49:55,270 --> 00:49:52,480 retribution by creating a standardized 1225 00:49:57,030 --> 00:49:55,280 faa uap reporting protocol 1226 00:49:59,349 --> 00:49:57,040 that is pushed out 1227 00:50:01,990 --> 00:49:59,359 and that their crew are trained to 1228 00:50:04,950 --> 00:50:02,000 in order to ensure that we are receiving 1229 00:50:07,349 --> 00:50:04,960 accurate data from the civilian aviation 1230 00:50:09,270 --> 00:50:07,359 community 1231 00:50:12,790 --> 00:50:09,280 according to the federal aviation 1232 00:50:15,829 --> 00:50:12,800 administration approximately 45 000 1233 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:15,839 flights take place on a daily basis in 1234 00:50:20,069 --> 00:50:17,760 the united states alone 1235 00:50:22,230 --> 00:50:20,079 multiplying that by literally every 1236 00:50:25,190 --> 00:50:22,240 other country and continent both 1237 00:50:27,510 --> 00:50:25,200 military commercial and private flights 1238 00:50:30,309 --> 00:50:27,520 it is statistically only a matter of 1239 00:50:33,510 --> 00:50:30,319 time before something truly disastrous 1240 00:50:36,390 --> 00:50:33,520 happens with one of these uap 1241 00:50:38,630 --> 00:50:36,400 the object or phenomena itself may not 1242 00:50:41,430 --> 00:50:38,640 even be the actual threat 1243 00:50:44,390 --> 00:50:41,440 but the response or reaction by a pilot 1244 00:50:46,069 --> 00:50:44,400 or military branch could be just as 1245 00:50:48,230 --> 00:50:46,079 dangerous 1246 00:50:50,470 --> 00:50:48,240 from the early days of the foo fighter 1247 00:50:52,950 --> 00:50:50,480 phenomena reported by allied aircraft 1248 00:50:55,829 --> 00:50:52,960 pilots during world war ii through the 1249 00:50:57,829 --> 00:50:55,839 50s and decades to follow even up until 1250 00:51:00,230 --> 00:50:57,839 the past few years with sightings by the 1251 00:51:02,790 --> 00:51:00,240 likes of ryan graves and many other 1252 00:51:06,390 --> 00:51:02,800 pilots it's clear that whatever these 1253 00:51:09,349 --> 00:51:06,400 uap or ufos are or aren't they remain 1254 00:51:12,150 --> 00:51:09,359 just as elusive as they always have been 1255 00:51:14,950 --> 00:51:12,160 both to the public and obviously to our 1256 00:51:15,910 --> 00:51:14,960 military pilots and ground witnesses as 1257 00:51:18,230 --> 00:51:15,920 well 1258 00:51:20,470 --> 00:51:18,240 either way it seems that the ufo 1259 00:51:22,230 --> 00:51:20,480 researchers of yesteryear and the 1260 00:51:24,870 --> 00:51:22,240 current advocates for government 1261 00:51:27,510 --> 00:51:24,880 transparency on the uap issue may 1262 00:51:29,829 --> 00:51:27,520 finally be getting a small of a 1263 00:51:30,790 --> 00:51:29,839 important piece of their wish coming 1264 00:51:33,349 --> 00:51:30,800 true 1265 00:51:35,910 --> 00:51:33,359 an age where it becomes increasingly 1266 00:51:37,349 --> 00:51:35,920 harder to keep the lid on secrets once 1267 00:51:39,670 --> 00:51:37,359 kept 1268 00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:39,680 and as we continue to head into an 1269 00:51:45,190 --> 00:51:42,880 uncertain future in relation to ufos it 1270 00:51:47,349 --> 00:51:45,200 may be worth wondering that perhaps we 1271 00:51:50,630 --> 00:51:47,359 aren't on our own timetable when it 1272 00:51:53,270 --> 00:51:50,640 comes to understanding these phenomena 1273 00:51:57,109 --> 00:51:53,280 perhaps we are and always have been on 1274 00:51:59,910 --> 00:51:57,119 the timetable of the phenomena itself 1275 00:52:12,150 --> 00:51:59,920 and only then will we get any answers 1276 00:52:16,470 --> 00:52:14,230 this episode was co-researched and 1277 00:52:19,109 --> 00:52:16,480 co-written by marcus sloth it was 1278 00:52:21,030 --> 00:52:19,119
