00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:27,599 what do you what are you thinking and 48 00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:30,480 feeling in today's landscape of the ufo 49 00:02:34,470 --> 00:02:32,400 conversation i mean you've been doing 50 00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:34,480 this for a while and we've seen a lot 51 00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:36,959 change in the past few years do you 52 00:02:41,430 --> 00:02:39,200 think we're headed in a good direction 53 00:02:44,949 --> 00:02:41,440 what do you think of ufology today in 54 00:02:46,869 --> 00:02:44,959 2022 there are several questions but 55 00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:46,879 what i know 56 00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:49,200 but the main thing 57 00:02:53,110 --> 00:02:51,680 if i had to describe really my my 58 00:02:54,470 --> 00:02:53,120 feelings is 59 00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:54,480 a 60 00:02:58,869 --> 00:02:57,040 feeling of 61 00:02:59,750 --> 00:02:58,879 relief 62 00:03:04,470 --> 00:02:59,760 and 63 00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:07,750 humbled by what has happened with the 64 00:03:11,990 --> 00:03:10,560 the official recognition of the 65 00:03:14,710 --> 00:03:12,000 phenomenon 66 00:03:16,790 --> 00:03:14,720 this is uh something i've 67 00:03:19,589 --> 00:03:16,800 you know i've been 68 00:03:20,550 --> 00:03:19,599 lucky to live long enough to see this 69 00:03:21,990 --> 00:03:20,560 uh 70 00:03:24,550 --> 00:03:22,000 many of my 71 00:03:25,670 --> 00:03:24,560 mentors and and friends over the years 72 00:03:28,710 --> 00:03:25,680 are not 73 00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:28,720 have not seen that including dr heineck 74 00:03:33,830 --> 00:03:31,120 or i may michelle and so on who were 75 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:33,840 hoping for the day when the government 76 00:03:36,949 --> 00:03:36,000 you know especially the u.s government 77 00:03:40,149 --> 00:03:36,959 of course 78 00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:40,159 would come out and recognize the 79 00:03:44,229 --> 00:03:42,720 reality of the problem 80 00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:44,239 as a 81 00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:47,920 problem 82 00:03:53,270 --> 00:03:51,760 so now um you know that day has come 83 00:03:55,110 --> 00:03:53,280 and it is 84 00:04:00,470 --> 00:03:55,120 irreversible 85 00:04:02,949 --> 00:04:00,480 have been waiting for that day including 86 00:04:04,949 --> 00:04:02,959 so many witnesses who were 87 00:04:07,589 --> 00:04:04,959 ridiculed were 88 00:04:09,190 --> 00:04:07,599 uh were attacked were you know in the 89 00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:09,200 press and 90 00:04:12,149 --> 00:04:10,560 everywhere 91 00:04:14,070 --> 00:04:12,159 and now 92 00:04:16,150 --> 00:04:14,080 we have to recognize that these people 93 00:04:17,990 --> 00:04:16,160 were telling the truth 94 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:18,000 now the question is 95 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:20,560 you know what what is the truth i mean 96 00:04:26,790 --> 00:04:22,560 it's up to us now to 97 00:04:29,189 --> 00:04:26,800 to to expand the research and it's again 98 00:04:33,189 --> 00:04:29,199 a humbling 99 00:04:34,870 --> 00:04:33,199 because they 100 00:04:37,270 --> 00:04:34,880 we don't have 101 00:04:40,830 --> 00:04:37,280 we have a lot of data 102 00:04:43,990 --> 00:04:40,840 very 103 00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:44,000 complex and we we need to bring in 104 00:04:49,590 --> 00:04:46,880 people and train them very quickly 105 00:04:51,430 --> 00:04:49,600 to help us so far the work that has been 106 00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:51,440 done has been done 107 00:04:56,950 --> 00:04:54,240 you know pretty much on a personal basis 108 00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:56,960 uh i would say on 109 00:05:01,590 --> 00:04:59,280 not exactly on an amateurish basis 110 00:05:04,629 --> 00:05:01,600 because a lot of resources have been 111 00:05:07,909 --> 00:05:04,639 brought into into the study but now we 112 00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:07,919 have to do it as a real science the the 113 00:05:12,629 --> 00:05:11,440 way uh you know harvard university is 114 00:05:16,870 --> 00:05:12,639 doing it 115 00:05:18,390 --> 00:05:16,880 uh with dr abhinav uh dr evil has 116 00:05:20,469 --> 00:05:18,400 as you know has 117 00:05:23,430 --> 00:05:20,479 deployed a 118 00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:23,440 project which is privately funded 119 00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,560 to 120 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:26,720 analyze signals from 121 00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:28,720 a new space 122 00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:31,520 that can teach us something about you 123 00:05:35,670 --> 00:05:34,080 know what else is there that we haven't 124 00:05:38,550 --> 00:05:35,680 recognized before 125 00:05:42,150 --> 00:05:38,560 including objects like um 126 00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:42,160 that was passed by the earth a couple of 127 00:05:48,629 --> 00:05:46,000 years ago and was detected and now um 128 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:48,639 his team has found that there were other 129 00:05:52,629 --> 00:05:49,759 cases 130 00:05:53,590 --> 00:05:52,639 like umuah that could be that could be 131 00:05:56,150 --> 00:05:53,600 study 132 00:05:59,350 --> 00:05:56,160 so that's that's a big 133 00:06:00,150 --> 00:05:59,360 big breakthrough it's a big step forward 134 00:06:05,270 --> 00:06:00,160 the 135 00:06:08,550 --> 00:06:05,280 look at materials 136 00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:08,560 and uh contrary to what people think 137 00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:11,039 that research has been going on 138 00:06:15,830 --> 00:06:13,440 for a long time starting with professor 139 00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:15,840 sturock at stanford 140 00:06:22,390 --> 00:06:19,600 who was also my my mentor in physics 141 00:06:24,629 --> 00:06:22,400 in uh solar physics 142 00:06:27,350 --> 00:06:24,639 and in astrophysics uh 143 00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:27,360 when when i was at stanford and we 144 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:31,520 worked together on a few of those cases 145 00:06:36,550 --> 00:06:33,360 the 146 00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:36,560 professor stuart is still alive and 147 00:06:41,189 --> 00:06:39,600 active but he has somewhat retired from 148 00:06:43,909 --> 00:06:41,199 that and has 149 00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:43,919 given me has left with me a number of 150 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,639 the samples he had collected including 151 00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:49,440 the famous ubertuba samples 152 00:06:52,150 --> 00:06:50,800 from brazil 153 00:06:54,870 --> 00:06:52,160 so 154 00:06:57,830 --> 00:06:54,880 dr gary nolan and i are 155 00:07:00,950 --> 00:06:57,840 picking up that research and we just 156 00:07:06,870 --> 00:07:03,749 uh refereed article in a major 157 00:07:09,909 --> 00:07:06,880 scientific journal about the the study 158 00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:09,919 of of one case in the in the american 159 00:07:14,950 --> 00:07:13,120 midwest yes so what you're saying uh 160 00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:14,960 showing is uh 161 00:07:18,710 --> 00:07:17,680 uh professor nolan and i uh 162 00:07:23,749 --> 00:07:18,720 taking 163 00:07:26,469 --> 00:07:23,759 sophisticated instrument that he and his 164 00:07:27,830 --> 00:07:26,479 team has invented at stanford so 165 00:07:29,990 --> 00:07:27,840 we the 166 00:07:31,830 --> 00:07:30,000 what is nice there is that we have the 167 00:07:34,710 --> 00:07:31,840 instrument and we have 168 00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:34,720 the the engineering team 169 00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:36,479 that has uh 170 00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:38,960 done the research and actually built the 171 00:07:43,110 --> 00:07:40,000 instrument 172 00:07:46,230 --> 00:07:43,120 so we're in a in a very uh 173 00:07:47,990 --> 00:07:46,240 lucky in a very fortunate situation 174 00:07:49,350 --> 00:07:48,000 thanks to his work and the work of this 175 00:07:50,550 --> 00:07:49,360 team in 176 00:07:54,629 --> 00:07:50,560 the 177 00:07:57,189 --> 00:07:54,639 designed for biology 178 00:07:59,350 --> 00:07:57,199 so the the benefit is that we can work 179 00:08:01,749 --> 00:07:59,360 with very very small 180 00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:01,759 amounts of material somebody was showing 181 00:08:08,390 --> 00:08:05,599 me a sample they had that 182 00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:08,400 that they would like analyzed by us and 183 00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:10,800 i said don't send me the sample keep it 184 00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:13,520 you know it's a potentially a treasure 185 00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:16,240 but we we just need a few grabs of 186 00:08:19,029 --> 00:08:18,080 material to 187 00:08:21,990 --> 00:08:19,039 to do 188 00:08:24,469 --> 00:08:22,000 an isotope analysis 189 00:08:27,110 --> 00:08:24,479 so jacques in terms of this current work 190 00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:27,120 you're doing with dr gary nolan uh what 191 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,560 have been some of the most compelling 192 00:08:33,430 --> 00:08:30,720 findings with these materials that you 193 00:08:35,269 --> 00:08:33,440 both have looked at has anything really 194 00:08:38,389 --> 00:08:35,279 screamed to you that we're not dealing 195 00:08:41,190 --> 00:08:38,399 with something that was 196 00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:41,200 you know manufactured here on earth or 197 00:08:44,949 --> 00:08:42,640 what are we talking about with some of 198 00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:44,959 these if you don't mind sharing i think 199 00:08:49,110 --> 00:08:47,200 at the first level 200 00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:49,120 the main thing that 201 00:08:56,150 --> 00:08:52,480 scientific analysis can do is validate 202 00:08:57,910 --> 00:08:56,160 the testimony of the human witnesses who 203 00:09:00,070 --> 00:08:57,920 bring this to us 204 00:09:01,910 --> 00:09:00,080 because if 205 00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:01,920 you know chemical 206 00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:04,320 a chemical even a complex chemical can 207 00:09:08,710 --> 00:09:05,680 be faked 208 00:09:09,750 --> 00:09:08,720 uh people have done that 209 00:09:12,310 --> 00:09:09,760 and 210 00:09:13,910 --> 00:09:12,320 so there is always a hesitation 211 00:09:16,870 --> 00:09:13,920 you know about 212 00:09:23,269 --> 00:09:16,880 about what you can what you can do with 213 00:09:41,590 --> 00:09:24,550 the 214 00:09:44,310 --> 00:09:41,600 we have now instruments that allow us to 215 00:09:47,269 --> 00:09:44,320 uh to validate what the witness is 216 00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:47,279 telling us in a way that cannot be 217 00:09:51,509 --> 00:09:48,480 faked 218 00:09:53,269 --> 00:09:51,519 now suppose that we do that and we find 219 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:53,279 a difference in 220 00:09:57,350 --> 00:09:54,080 uh 221 00:09:59,110 --> 00:09:57,360 you know in isotope ratios 222 00:10:01,829 --> 00:09:59,120 uh people immediately jump to the 223 00:10:04,790 --> 00:10:01,839 conclusion that would mean that we have 224 00:10:06,790 --> 00:10:04,800 an extraterrestrial material well that's 225 00:10:08,070 --> 00:10:06,800 not true 226 00:10:12,150 --> 00:10:08,080 that 227 00:10:14,230 --> 00:10:12,160 more questions 228 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:14,240 you know there's always a problem with 229 00:10:18,710 --> 00:10:16,320 science you you go to a scientist you 230 00:10:20,949 --> 00:10:18,720 expect to have a question the scientist 231 00:10:22,710 --> 00:10:20,959 does you know the best 232 00:10:25,190 --> 00:10:22,720 analysis he can do 233 00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:25,200 and he answers one question and then he 234 00:10:31,030 --> 00:10:27,920 raises five more so i think we have 235 00:10:33,829 --> 00:10:31,040 people have to be to get used to that 236 00:10:37,110 --> 00:10:33,839 the the problem is that 237 00:10:38,870 --> 00:10:37,120 of course uh isotope ratios are going to 238 00:10:40,470 --> 00:10:38,880 be the same 239 00:10:41,829 --> 00:10:40,480 pretty much throughout the known 240 00:10:44,550 --> 00:10:41,839 universe 241 00:10:45,829 --> 00:10:44,560 so if you bring me a stone from the moon 242 00:10:48,470 --> 00:10:45,839 which we have 243 00:10:50,870 --> 00:10:48,480 are a stone from mouse 244 00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:50,880 which we also have because there are 245 00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:54,160 some meteorites that were the product of 246 00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:55,040 uh 247 00:10:59,190 --> 00:10:57,200 you know a meteor hitting mars and 248 00:11:02,550 --> 00:10:59,200 ejecting materials so 249 00:11:05,269 --> 00:11:02,560 on earth we find a few pieces of 250 00:11:07,269 --> 00:11:05,279 you know mineral that come have been 251 00:11:08,949 --> 00:11:07,279 ejected from mars 252 00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:08,959 you're going to do 253 00:11:13,670 --> 00:11:11,120 the the isotopic analysis you're going 254 00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:13,680 to find pretty much the same ratios 255 00:11:18,230 --> 00:11:15,760 as you would find if you picked up a 256 00:11:20,710 --> 00:11:18,240 stone from your garment so 257 00:11:23,990 --> 00:11:20,720 so that doesn't solve the problem 258 00:11:26,949 --> 00:11:24,000 the the problem is 259 00:11:31,190 --> 00:11:26,959 becomes interesting when you can see 260 00:11:36,389 --> 00:11:33,430 significantly altered 261 00:11:40,630 --> 00:11:36,399 for a reason for purpose 262 00:11:42,870 --> 00:11:40,640 uh of course here on earth we do that 263 00:11:45,829 --> 00:11:42,880 with uh uranium 264 00:11:46,790 --> 00:11:45,839 to make atomic bombs so we started doing 265 00:11:49,509 --> 00:11:46,800 that 266 00:11:51,829 --> 00:11:49,519 on pretty much an industrial scale at 267 00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:51,839 the end of world war ii that's how the 268 00:11:57,750 --> 00:11:54,720 atomic bomb was created and that's how 269 00:12:01,269 --> 00:11:57,760 you know that the nuclear physics has 270 00:12:03,509 --> 00:12:01,279 developed in nuclear energy and so on so 271 00:12:06,069 --> 00:12:03,519 we we know how to do that 272 00:12:09,269 --> 00:12:06,079 it's extraordinarily expensive 273 00:12:12,710 --> 00:12:09,279 and you would not expect to find a 274 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,720 sample after a ufo case 275 00:12:18,230 --> 00:12:14,880 you know in in your field if you're a 276 00:12:19,269 --> 00:12:18,240 farmer that would show abnormal isotope 277 00:12:21,509 --> 00:12:19,279 ratios 278 00:12:24,629 --> 00:12:21,519 so if that happens 279 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,639 it means that somebody has a very 280 00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:26,639 advanced technology 281 00:12:33,269 --> 00:12:29,680 that they have mastered that produces 282 00:12:36,310 --> 00:12:33,279 altered isotope ratios for a 283 00:12:39,430 --> 00:12:36,320 reason for a purpose that's that's a you 284 00:12:41,509 --> 00:12:39,440 know a technical or a scientific reason 285 00:12:43,750 --> 00:12:41,519 so that would be very interesting that 286 00:12:46,069 --> 00:12:43,760 would be a breakthrough now we thought 287 00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:46,079 we had gotten close to that with the 288 00:12:49,750 --> 00:12:47,519 ubatuba 289 00:12:52,389 --> 00:12:49,760 uh brazil case 290 00:12:55,670 --> 00:12:52,399 uh there is some question about that and 291 00:12:58,870 --> 00:12:55,680 we have a number of samples yet to be 292 00:13:02,069 --> 00:12:58,880 analyzed and that's part of our research 293 00:13:03,990 --> 00:13:02,079 program other other teams have also 294 00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:04,000 done analysis 295 00:13:10,389 --> 00:13:06,720 and they replicated the analysis by dr 296 00:13:11,509 --> 00:13:10,399 sterop and we we expect to do that uh as 297 00:13:12,629 --> 00:13:11,519 well 298 00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:12,639 the 299 00:13:16,710 --> 00:13:15,760 published 300 00:13:18,710 --> 00:13:16,720 there was 301 00:13:22,470 --> 00:13:18,720 you know is a case that happened in the 302 00:13:24,790 --> 00:13:22,480 midwest near omaha nebraska on the iowa 303 00:13:25,990 --> 00:13:24,800 side of nebraska on the other side of 304 00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:26,000 the river 305 00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:27,760 and um 306 00:13:33,990 --> 00:13:31,120 we we found a strange combination of 307 00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:34,000 things that the the sample resembles 308 00:13:37,590 --> 00:13:35,360 steel 309 00:13:39,190 --> 00:13:37,600 and we we know it couldn't be a hoax for 310 00:13:41,829 --> 00:13:39,200 a number of reasons 311 00:13:44,629 --> 00:13:41,839 uh the the great thing about that case 312 00:13:46,069 --> 00:13:44,639 is that we have we we know the names of 313 00:13:48,949 --> 00:13:46,079 all the witnesses 314 00:13:52,230 --> 00:13:48,959 the police was there within 30 minutes 315 00:13:55,190 --> 00:13:52,240 the fire man was there within 30 minutes 316 00:13:58,310 --> 00:13:55,200 we have the polaroid photographs taken 317 00:14:00,949 --> 00:13:58,320 by the police we have the testimony of 318 00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:00,959 the firemen and we know the names of all 319 00:14:06,310 --> 00:14:04,000 the there is about a dozen witnesses 320 00:14:09,189 --> 00:14:06,320 scattered over an area of about 10 321 00:14:11,509 --> 00:14:09,199 square miles and we know where they were 322 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:11,519 and we know what they saw they saw an 323 00:14:19,590 --> 00:14:14,560 object in the sky with rotating lights 324 00:14:21,430 --> 00:14:19,600 that went away and they found a mass of 325 00:14:24,150 --> 00:14:21,440 molten steel 326 00:14:27,750 --> 00:14:24,160 that essentially was dripping down a 327 00:14:29,750 --> 00:14:27,760 levee in a park outside omaha 328 00:14:32,230 --> 00:14:29,760 there is no explanation for that you 329 00:14:35,910 --> 00:14:32,240 know this was in the middle of december 330 00:14:37,509 --> 00:14:35,920 the temperature was below zero um 331 00:14:39,509 --> 00:14:37,519 in fact the the 332 00:14:40,629 --> 00:14:39,519 the water that was put on it was 333 00:14:41,670 --> 00:14:40,639 freezing 334 00:14:44,069 --> 00:14:41,680 uh 335 00:14:45,189 --> 00:14:44,079 instantly there was no explanation for 336 00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:45,199 how 337 00:14:50,550 --> 00:14:47,760 you could do that as a hoax i mean this 338 00:14:51,350 --> 00:14:50,560 so everything about the case is known 339 00:14:55,990 --> 00:14:51,360 and 340 00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:56,000 what the witnesses have been telling the 341 00:15:00,150 --> 00:14:57,360 police and 342 00:15:03,110 --> 00:15:00,160 and the the fire department 343 00:15:05,110 --> 00:15:03,120 now that's that's uh an extraordinarily 344 00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:05,120 well documented case 345 00:15:12,069 --> 00:15:08,560 you know in in much of ufology you find 346 00:15:14,790 --> 00:15:12,079 stories that somebody saw something that 347 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:14,800 cannot tell the name of the witness and 348 00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:17,199 that isn't clear about the date and it 349 00:15:22,310 --> 00:15:20,000 may or may not have i know including 350 00:15:23,110 --> 00:15:22,320 roswell i mean roswell look how long it 351 00:15:23,910 --> 00:15:23,120 took 352 00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:23,920 for 353 00:15:28,790 --> 00:15:26,639 you know the names of the real witnesses 354 00:15:30,870 --> 00:15:28,800 come out and there's still some 355 00:15:33,350 --> 00:15:30,880 discrepancy and nobody was there at the 356 00:15:36,870 --> 00:15:33,360 site at the time of roswell you know 357 00:15:38,629 --> 00:15:36,880 that the site was discovered later on 358 00:15:42,310 --> 00:15:38,639 so 359 00:15:44,790 --> 00:15:42,320 where we had 360 00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:44,800 we could document completely the human 361 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:48,560 testimony and the material uh there is 362 00:15:53,030 --> 00:15:51,279 no way to bring uh you know half a ton 363 00:15:56,150 --> 00:15:53,040 of molten steel 364 00:15:58,710 --> 00:15:56,160 to a place like this on a beautiful 365 00:15:59,590 --> 00:15:58,720 evening in nebraska 366 00:16:01,430 --> 00:15:59,600 you know 367 00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:01,440 with a truck i mean 368 00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:03,279 or drop it over there 369 00:16:06,550 --> 00:16:04,639 that's not 370 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:06,560 so 371 00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:08,880 the composition is 372 00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:11,680 relatively normal from a chemical point 373 00:16:16,790 --> 00:16:14,000 of view it's not exactly the kind of 374 00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:16,800 steel that you'd expect you know in in 375 00:16:21,829 --> 00:16:19,440 industry but it has the same general 376 00:16:23,990 --> 00:16:21,839 composition of steel and the isotope 377 00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:24,000 ratios are normal 378 00:16:30,389 --> 00:16:28,320 so uh that paper took four years to 379 00:16:33,030 --> 00:16:30,399 to develop i mean the the analysis 380 00:16:35,590 --> 00:16:33,040 itself we've read it several times on 381 00:16:37,590 --> 00:16:35,600 several machines okay including the 382 00:16:41,269 --> 00:16:37,600 machine that you've seen you know 383 00:16:42,230 --> 00:16:41,279 invented by dr nolan's team at stanford 384 00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:42,240 so 385 00:16:45,670 --> 00:16:44,320 we're pretty sure of the ratios we've 386 00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:45,680 published 387 00:16:49,350 --> 00:16:47,440 in fact we're very sure 388 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:49,360 uh having done it on different 389 00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:50,560 instruments 390 00:16:55,189 --> 00:16:52,959 and uh the 391 00:16:56,949 --> 00:16:55,199 we answered a number of questions from 392 00:16:59,910 --> 00:16:56,959 the meteorologists who 393 00:17:01,829 --> 00:16:59,920 surveyed the paper and you know approved 394 00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:01,839 the paper 395 00:17:06,150 --> 00:17:04,720 it's published in the leading uh journal 396 00:17:09,750 --> 00:17:06,160 of of 397 00:17:11,270 --> 00:17:09,760 uh astronautics uh in the world so 398 00:17:13,189 --> 00:17:11,280 uh it's 399 00:17:14,949 --> 00:17:13,199 the important thing about that article 400 00:17:18,069 --> 00:17:14,959 is that it opens 401 00:17:21,110 --> 00:17:18,079 a boulevard it opens an avenue for other 402 00:17:23,350 --> 00:17:21,120 people to publish now in 403 00:17:25,429 --> 00:17:23,360 recognized scientific journals which 404 00:17:26,710 --> 00:17:25,439 have always been closed as you know i 405 00:17:30,789 --> 00:17:26,720 mean it was 406 00:17:33,430 --> 00:17:30,799 dr heineck trying to publish articles in 407 00:17:35,110 --> 00:17:33,440 science magazine you know and other 408 00:17:38,230 --> 00:17:35,120 people have tried to publish in the 409 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:38,240 landsat and then you know in nature in 410 00:17:41,909 --> 00:17:39,360 other things 411 00:17:44,310 --> 00:17:41,919 uh but there has never been an article 412 00:17:45,190 --> 00:17:44,320 like ours published in the scientific 413 00:17:47,669 --> 00:17:45,200 press 414 00:17:50,470 --> 00:17:47,679 so this is a first and we're very proud 415 00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:50,480 of it and again we 416 00:17:55,270 --> 00:17:52,559 we think it's a gift to 417 00:17:57,190 --> 00:17:55,280 you know to the research community that 418 00:17:58,230 --> 00:17:57,200 we've we've opened that 419 00:18:00,549 --> 00:17:58,240 precedent 420 00:18:02,549 --> 00:18:00,559 and now people can submit 421 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:02,559 scientific articles to 422 00:18:06,070 --> 00:18:04,080 top-tier 423 00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:06,080 scientific reviews 424 00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:08,640 and then it's up to them to decide 425 00:18:13,669 --> 00:18:11,280 you know honestly as scientists 426 00:18:16,630 --> 00:18:13,679 are they ready to publish 427 00:18:18,230 --> 00:18:16,640 valid you know scientific analyses on 428 00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:18,240 this subject 429 00:18:23,510 --> 00:18:21,360 and uh you know it's it's up to them 430 00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:23,520 the the burden is on 431 00:18:29,110 --> 00:18:26,480 but the science you know the science is 432 00:18:31,669 --> 00:18:29,120 is catching up 433 00:18:34,150 --> 00:18:31,679 finally yes it's exciting and like you 434 00:18:37,669 --> 00:18:34,160 said i think precedent is the key word 435 00:18:40,070 --> 00:18:37,679 there it sets a standard for both the uh 436 00:18:42,549 --> 00:18:40,080 you know the ufo research field but also 437 00:18:43,990 --> 00:18:42,559 the scientific fields uh hard sciences 438 00:18:45,430 --> 00:18:44,000 soft sciences 439 00:18:47,669 --> 00:18:45,440 that's what i love about this topic 440 00:18:48,789 --> 00:18:47,679 shock is that you know 441 00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:48,799 you can 442 00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:50,480 mix all of the different sciences 443 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:53,440 together and you can mix academia and 444 00:18:59,750 --> 00:18:56,799 history and religion and in science into 445 00:19:01,830 --> 00:18:59,760 the ufo topic and that's what drew me in 446 00:19:04,390 --> 00:19:01,840 is you have this cross-cultural thing 447 00:19:06,870 --> 00:19:04,400 happening all over the place and people 448 00:19:08,390 --> 00:19:06,880 interpreting it completely differently 449 00:19:10,950 --> 00:19:08,400 which is a lot of the work you've done 450 00:19:12,230 --> 00:19:10,960 in the past as well is uh examining 451 00:19:14,310 --> 00:19:12,240 those things 452 00:19:17,430 --> 00:19:14,320 yes but it's also 453 00:19:20,230 --> 00:19:17,440 you know it's also an obstacle because 454 00:19:22,870 --> 00:19:20,240 you know the the social and sociology 455 00:19:25,270 --> 00:19:22,880 department is at one end of the campus 456 00:19:27,909 --> 00:19:25,280 and the physics department is a mile 457 00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:27,919 away at the other end and they never 458 00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:29,679 really meet you know maybe for a 459 00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:31,280 christmas party but that's the only 460 00:19:36,830 --> 00:19:34,720 thing so here we're bridging with it's 461 00:19:39,669 --> 00:19:36,840 it's the ultimate 462 00:19:42,070 --> 00:19:39,679 cross-disciplinary topic you know in in 463 00:19:43,590 --> 00:19:42,080 research so um 464 00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:43,600 you know the chemists like to do 465 00:19:48,789 --> 00:19:45,760 chemistry and the physicists like to do 466 00:19:52,710 --> 00:19:48,799 physics and occasionally they cross over 467 00:19:54,549 --> 00:19:52,720 but not not very often and here we found 468 00:19:57,270 --> 00:19:54,559 we we thought we had done a really good 469 00:19:59,990 --> 00:19:57,280 job with our article we have all the 470 00:20:01,669 --> 00:20:00,000 analyses for chemical analyses and 471 00:20:03,909 --> 00:20:01,679 isotope analysis 472 00:20:06,630 --> 00:20:03,919 and then we got a lot of 473 00:20:10,070 --> 00:20:06,640 tough questions from meteorologists 474 00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:10,080 now you know dr nolan is a very imminent 475 00:20:15,510 --> 00:20:13,440 biologist uh you know my my work has 476 00:20:18,390 --> 00:20:15,520 been initially you know in the 477 00:20:21,830 --> 00:20:18,400 industrial physics with professor stuart 478 00:20:24,230 --> 00:20:21,840 at stanford and also in texas but then 479 00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:24,240 most of my career has been in computer 480 00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:27,200 science and and then in investing in 481 00:20:31,270 --> 00:20:30,400 technology so i have a fairly wide range 482 00:20:33,350 --> 00:20:31,280 of 483 00:20:34,789 --> 00:20:33,360 you know 484 00:20:38,310 --> 00:20:34,799 information 485 00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:38,320 about the frontiers of technology today 486 00:20:41,990 --> 00:20:41,039 but i really don't know much about the 487 00:20:43,830 --> 00:20:42,000 challenge 488 00:20:46,950 --> 00:20:43,840 it's not a field i've studied 489 00:20:49,669 --> 00:20:46,960 so we had to take 490 00:20:51,270 --> 00:20:49,679 a number of tough questions and go over 491 00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:51,280 them one by one 492 00:20:57,830 --> 00:20:54,480 uh to find people we could consult about 493 00:21:00,310 --> 00:20:57,840 the aspects of this the sample we have 494 00:21:03,430 --> 00:21:00,320 that we had analyzed so that you know 495 00:21:05,990 --> 00:21:03,440 that takes time and it takes uh 496 00:21:09,430 --> 00:21:06,000 good relationships you know across as 497 00:21:12,149 --> 00:21:09,440 you said across disciplines 498 00:21:13,669 --> 00:21:12,159 yeah yeah absolutely and i think again 499 00:21:17,190 --> 00:21:13,679 we're going to see 500 00:21:19,430 --> 00:21:17,200 all different types uh of scientists and 501 00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:19,440 and what not start to bridge those gaps 502 00:21:24,470 --> 00:21:22,080 which is really exciting it really is um 503 00:21:25,830 --> 00:21:24,480 and that kind of you know shocked traces 504 00:21:27,669 --> 00:21:25,840 to uh 505 00:21:30,230 --> 00:21:27,679 another topic i really wanted to talk to 506 00:21:31,190 --> 00:21:30,240 you about when it comes to materials and 507 00:21:34,950 --> 00:21:31,200 um 508 00:21:37,830 --> 00:21:34,960 you know craft in general and that is 509 00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:37,840 the trinity ufo case now for for those 510 00:21:42,950 --> 00:21:40,000 of our our viewers our listeners who 511 00:21:45,590 --> 00:21:42,960 aren't familiar with this case uh would 512 00:21:47,909 --> 00:21:45,600 you mind giving us kind of the overview 513 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:47,919 of trinity what it is how you got 514 00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:50,720 personally involved with the case 515 00:21:55,430 --> 00:21:54,240 i got involved in it thanks to paula 516 00:21:56,310 --> 00:21:55,440 harris 517 00:22:00,149 --> 00:21:56,320 who 518 00:22:02,070 --> 00:22:00,159 is a long time student of history she 519 00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:02,080 comes from italy 520 00:22:07,909 --> 00:22:05,200 she has taught at the 521 00:22:10,630 --> 00:22:07,919 college level you know both in italy and 522 00:22:13,590 --> 00:22:10,640 in the us 523 00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:13,600 and she's really passionate about 524 00:22:19,830 --> 00:22:16,559 applying that her view of history and 525 00:22:21,669 --> 00:22:19,840 her view of contemporary history to 526 00:22:22,870 --> 00:22:21,679 this topic 527 00:22:24,789 --> 00:22:22,880 and 528 00:22:29,990 --> 00:22:24,799 the 529 00:22:31,270 --> 00:22:30,000 well now simple 530 00:22:34,149 --> 00:22:31,280 uh 531 00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:34,159 is that the witnesses never spoke 532 00:22:39,430 --> 00:22:37,200 now um the witnesses this happened in 533 00:22:42,310 --> 00:22:39,440 1945 534 00:22:45,350 --> 00:22:42,320 um it happened one month 535 00:22:48,390 --> 00:22:45,360 to the day after the explosion of a 536 00:22:50,470 --> 00:22:48,400 first atomic bomb 20 miles away from 537 00:22:53,110 --> 00:22:50,480 where the witnesses were 538 00:22:55,190 --> 00:22:53,120 the witnesses were children 539 00:22:57,430 --> 00:22:55,200 they were taking care of the ranch 540 00:22:59,510 --> 00:22:57,440 remember at that time all the adults 541 00:23:03,270 --> 00:22:59,520 were in uniform 542 00:23:05,190 --> 00:23:03,280 uh all the able-bodied you know men and 543 00:23:06,310 --> 00:23:05,200 women had been deployed in the armed 544 00:23:08,710 --> 00:23:06,320 forces 545 00:23:09,590 --> 00:23:08,720 from the pacific all the way to berlin 546 00:23:10,310 --> 00:23:09,600 okay 547 00:23:11,029 --> 00:23:10,320 and 548 00:23:11,990 --> 00:23:11,039 the 549 00:23:14,950 --> 00:23:12,000 uh 550 00:23:17,669 --> 00:23:14,960 the the task of taking care of farms and 551 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:17,679 ranches and so on fell through 552 00:23:21,909 --> 00:23:20,080 teenagers and young kids 553 00:23:24,230 --> 00:23:21,919 so those two kids were taking care of 554 00:23:27,430 --> 00:23:24,240 the ranch taking care of the cattle that 555 00:23:29,029 --> 00:23:27,440 was on on their family ranch 556 00:23:30,390 --> 00:23:29,039 and they 557 00:23:31,669 --> 00:23:30,400 saw 558 00:23:33,029 --> 00:23:31,679 an object 559 00:23:36,310 --> 00:23:33,039 arrive 560 00:23:38,149 --> 00:23:36,320 the object hit a communication tower 561 00:23:40,950 --> 00:23:38,159 that was controlling 562 00:23:42,950 --> 00:23:40,960 civilian communication on the north end 563 00:23:46,070 --> 00:23:42,960 of the trinity site 564 00:23:48,950 --> 00:23:46,080 which is of course where the the bulb 565 00:23:52,149 --> 00:23:48,960 the first atom bomb was developed 566 00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:52,159 and vetonated 567 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:52,960 in 568 00:23:57,830 --> 00:23:56,159 july 1945. 569 00:24:00,310 --> 00:23:57,840 so uh 570 00:24:03,909 --> 00:24:00,320 don't tell me it's not a historical date 571 00:24:06,230 --> 00:24:03,919 i mean the the bomb is detonated 572 00:24:09,430 --> 00:24:06,240 the population had not been evacuated 573 00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:09,440 because of course everything was secret 574 00:24:14,710 --> 00:24:12,240 and a month later this object arrives it 575 00:24:16,549 --> 00:24:14,720 hits this communication tower 576 00:24:20,789 --> 00:24:16,559 takes it out of 577 00:24:23,110 --> 00:24:20,799 communication and that makes a crash 578 00:24:26,149 --> 00:24:23,120 landing 579 00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:26,159 doesn't blow up in pieces like roswell 580 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:27,679 or others 581 00:24:30,789 --> 00:24:28,559 um 582 00:24:32,390 --> 00:24:30,799 the object is egg shaped 583 00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:32,400 in in the book in 584 00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:34,000 this book trinity 585 00:24:39,110 --> 00:24:36,320 there is no flying salsa the term flying 586 00:24:41,269 --> 00:24:39,120 saucer is going to be invented by can i 587 00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:41,279 found out two years later 588 00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:46,870 there is no air force there is no u.s 589 00:24:52,310 --> 00:24:49,919 air force uh of course the u.s 590 00:24:55,110 --> 00:24:52,320 america has airplanes and pilots but 591 00:24:57,909 --> 00:24:55,120 they are in army uniforms it's the army 592 00:25:00,549 --> 00:24:57,919 air force the air force is going to be 593 00:25:02,710 --> 00:25:00,559 created by president truman two years 594 00:25:05,350 --> 00:25:02,720 later in 1947. 595 00:25:08,669 --> 00:25:05,360 there is no cia you know cia is going to 596 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:08,679 be created two years later so we have an 597 00:25:12,830 --> 00:25:11,200 extraordinary historical 598 00:25:13,909 --> 00:25:12,840 occurrence here 599 00:25:15,510 --> 00:25:13,919 of a 600 00:25:17,830 --> 00:25:15,520 very complex 601 00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:17,840 large object 602 00:25:22,870 --> 00:25:20,320 that we've determined must have weighted 603 00:25:24,470 --> 00:25:22,880 between two and five tons 604 00:25:27,510 --> 00:25:24,480 crash landing 605 00:25:28,870 --> 00:25:27,520 on a ranch in new mexico 606 00:25:32,390 --> 00:25:28,880 now 607 00:25:35,430 --> 00:25:32,400 in in the first edition of the book this 608 00:25:37,510 --> 00:25:35,440 is what you're showing the red edition 609 00:25:39,110 --> 00:25:37,520 is you know the new edition it's a 610 00:25:41,590 --> 00:25:39,120 revised edition 611 00:25:43,110 --> 00:25:41,600 augmented with more more witnesses and 612 00:25:43,909 --> 00:25:43,120 more testimony 613 00:25:46,070 --> 00:25:43,919 but 614 00:25:48,549 --> 00:25:46,080 in the first edition 615 00:25:49,830 --> 00:25:48,559 i i made the mistake of introducing the 616 00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:49,840 story 617 00:25:53,750 --> 00:25:51,600 because i was 618 00:25:55,029 --> 00:25:53,760 you know i was frankly 619 00:25:58,230 --> 00:25:55,039 charmed and 620 00:26:00,789 --> 00:25:58,240 taken by that of the two kids reporting 621 00:26:03,669 --> 00:26:00,799 this event from their point of view and 622 00:26:05,510 --> 00:26:03,679 how it has changed their life 623 00:26:08,630 --> 00:26:05,520 because when they came out 624 00:26:10,310 --> 00:26:08,640 they hadn't spoken for over 60 years 625 00:26:14,149 --> 00:26:10,320 and they came out because they were 626 00:26:17,110 --> 00:26:14,159 reconnected by you know an unrelated 627 00:26:19,190 --> 00:26:17,120 uh search on the internet they were 628 00:26:20,710 --> 00:26:19,200 reconnected and then they spoke about 629 00:26:23,750 --> 00:26:20,720 their experience 630 00:26:26,630 --> 00:26:23,760 for the whole history of the phenomenon 631 00:26:27,909 --> 00:26:26,640 they didn't speak and nobody knew about 632 00:26:29,590 --> 00:26:27,919 the case 633 00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:29,600 for another reason 634 00:26:33,350 --> 00:26:31,600 which is that the people who recovered 635 00:26:35,590 --> 00:26:33,360 the craft 636 00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:35,600 never spoke either 637 00:26:40,149 --> 00:26:39,200 so as you know i've done work uh on 638 00:26:42,310 --> 00:26:40,159 you know 639 00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:42,320 the bigger old projects uh for a number 640 00:26:45,669 --> 00:26:43,679 of years 641 00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:45,679 with with colleagues who had high 642 00:26:49,510 --> 00:26:47,120 clearances 643 00:26:52,070 --> 00:26:49,520 uh they never knew about this case 644 00:26:55,669 --> 00:26:52,080 because it was kept 645 00:26:58,789 --> 00:26:55,679 by the clearances in the atomic sequence 646 00:27:00,390 --> 00:26:58,799 and we know that from other cases from 647 00:27:01,269 --> 00:27:00,400 other things that i described in the 648 00:27:02,630 --> 00:27:01,279 book 649 00:27:06,390 --> 00:27:02,640 that the 650 00:27:09,430 --> 00:27:06,400 the classification system was not secret 651 00:27:12,789 --> 00:27:09,440 top secret sap and all that 652 00:27:15,750 --> 00:27:12,799 that we know from the pentagon type of 653 00:27:19,110 --> 00:27:15,760 classification which is most of the 654 00:27:23,029 --> 00:27:19,120 classification in the united states 655 00:27:25,830 --> 00:27:23,039 but by the atomic secrets there are rp 656 00:27:28,630 --> 00:27:25,840 and q classifications 657 00:27:32,310 --> 00:27:28,640 that relate to the atom bomb and we also 658 00:27:35,750 --> 00:27:32,320 know from good historical sources that 659 00:27:38,549 --> 00:27:35,760 the ufo subject on this side 660 00:27:40,950 --> 00:27:38,559 of the administration 661 00:27:43,830 --> 00:27:40,960 is classified higher 662 00:27:48,549 --> 00:27:43,840 than the atomic bomb 663 00:27:50,470 --> 00:27:48,559 now that explains why number one you 664 00:27:53,029 --> 00:27:50,480 have to have access to 665 00:27:55,190 --> 00:27:53,039 that system of classification which most 666 00:27:57,510 --> 00:27:55,200 people working in the pentagon do not 667 00:27:58,950 --> 00:27:57,520 because they don't deal with nuclear 668 00:28:01,430 --> 00:27:58,960 material 669 00:28:04,230 --> 00:28:01,440 only those that that do 670 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:04,240 deal with physics development in nuclear 671 00:28:09,590 --> 00:28:06,960 physics would have those clearances so 672 00:28:11,110 --> 00:28:09,600 it's a very small number of people 673 00:28:13,590 --> 00:28:11,120 compared to all the people who have 674 00:28:16,310 --> 00:28:13,600 secret currencies for all kinds of other 675 00:28:17,909 --> 00:28:16,320 projects including computers including 676 00:28:20,310 --> 00:28:17,919 space including 677 00:28:22,710 --> 00:28:20,320 missiles including all of that that has 678 00:28:23,830 --> 00:28:22,720 nothing to do with atomic of nuclear 679 00:28:26,870 --> 00:28:23,840 secrets 680 00:28:28,630 --> 00:28:26,880 so that's why the the case when the case 681 00:28:31,510 --> 00:28:28,640 came out most 682 00:28:34,389 --> 00:28:31,520 of my colleagues in ufology and most of 683 00:28:36,870 --> 00:28:34,399 paula's you know uh colleagues said you 684 00:28:39,909 --> 00:28:36,880 must have made this up you've you've 685 00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:39,919 invented this you know this is not real 686 00:28:43,190 --> 00:28:40,960 you know 687 00:28:46,310 --> 00:28:43,200 talk to us about roswell i mean roswell 688 00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:46,320 is real but this this case you just made 689 00:28:51,269 --> 00:28:48,880 up out of thin air well i think now 690 00:28:52,710 --> 00:28:51,279 people have realized with the the weight 691 00:28:55,510 --> 00:28:52,720 of data 692 00:28:58,630 --> 00:28:55,520 that we've brought so in in this new 693 00:28:59,830 --> 00:28:58,640 version of the book i've corrected that 694 00:29:01,510 --> 00:28:59,840 mistake 695 00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:01,520 the first witness 696 00:29:07,430 --> 00:29:04,960 was a very senior bomber pilot name we 697 00:29:10,070 --> 00:29:07,440 know his name his name is bravi 698 00:29:12,310 --> 00:29:10,080 b-r-o-t-h-y 699 00:29:15,430 --> 00:29:12,320 who was coming in for a landing at 700 00:29:17,909 --> 00:29:15,440 alamogordo alamogordo is the the air 701 00:29:19,590 --> 00:29:17,919 base in the middle of white sands which 702 00:29:22,789 --> 00:29:19,600 is an enormous 703 00:29:24,549 --> 00:29:22,799 desert of you know white desert 704 00:29:28,190 --> 00:29:24,559 where the atomic bomb 705 00:29:29,909 --> 00:29:28,200 uh detonation took place in 19 in july 706 00:29:32,789 --> 00:29:29,919 1945. 707 00:29:35,990 --> 00:29:32,799 so um he's coming in for a landing with 708 00:29:39,830 --> 00:29:36,000 a b-25 which is uh was a 709 00:29:41,909 --> 00:29:39,840 wonderful you know uh bomber in the 710 00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:41,919 in most of world war ii 711 00:29:46,230 --> 00:29:44,559 and he's he's coming in for a landing 712 00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:46,240 the tower calls him 713 00:29:50,549 --> 00:29:48,799 and says can you as you fly over this 714 00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:50,559 communication tower 715 00:29:54,710 --> 00:29:52,320 can you tell us what's wrong because 716 00:29:56,789 --> 00:29:54,720 we've lost communication with so he 717 00:29:58,310 --> 00:29:56,799 circles the tower he sees that the tower 718 00:30:00,950 --> 00:29:58,320 is being bent 719 00:30:03,669 --> 00:30:00,960 by you know an impact of something it's 720 00:30:05,830 --> 00:30:03,679 not communicating anymore 721 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:05,840 the tower is one of three towers that 722 00:30:11,110 --> 00:30:08,399 direct airplanes including civilian 723 00:30:12,630 --> 00:30:11,120 airplanes around the atomic 724 00:30:13,909 --> 00:30:12,640 classified 725 00:30:15,350 --> 00:30:13,919 area 726 00:30:16,710 --> 00:30:15,360 so 727 00:30:19,510 --> 00:30:16,720 it's important that they've lost 728 00:30:24,070 --> 00:30:19,520 communication with it of course 729 00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:24,080 and then he sees some smoke in the 730 00:30:27,350 --> 00:30:25,760 uh you know in the bushes in the 731 00:30:30,630 --> 00:30:27,360 vegetation 732 00:30:33,029 --> 00:30:30,640 describes that there is something 733 00:30:36,950 --> 00:30:33,039 that's burning in the 734 00:30:38,630 --> 00:30:36,960 in the grass and in the cactus there 735 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:38,640 actually it's not burning i mean the 736 00:30:43,510 --> 00:30:40,880 cactus is burning the vegetation is 737 00:30:46,230 --> 00:30:43,520 burning the object is intact 738 00:30:48,789 --> 00:30:46,240 and it's a novel like you showed it's an 739 00:30:51,909 --> 00:30:48,799 egg shaped the kids of course speak 740 00:30:55,669 --> 00:30:51,919 spanish and they call it an avocado 741 00:30:58,310 --> 00:30:55,679 so it has a shape of an of of an avocado 742 00:31:01,669 --> 00:30:58,320 it's a size of two trucks 743 00:31:05,190 --> 00:31:01,679 it's about 15 feet high 744 00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:05,200 the floor is flat now we have 745 00:31:09,350 --> 00:31:07,360 one surviving witness that i've gotten 746 00:31:11,590 --> 00:31:09,360 to know very well 747 00:31:13,669 --> 00:31:11,600 mr padilla who was a 748 00:31:15,909 --> 00:31:13,679 long time 749 00:31:19,909 --> 00:31:15,919 california 750 00:31:22,310 --> 00:31:19,919 highway patrol officer uh after fighting 751 00:31:23,110 --> 00:31:22,320 in korea he has two bullets in his body 752 00:31:26,310 --> 00:31:23,120 and 753 00:31:27,350 --> 00:31:26,320 that the surgeons don't want to remove 754 00:31:28,310 --> 00:31:27,360 the 755 00:31:29,669 --> 00:31:28,320 his 756 00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:29,679 very 757 00:31:34,070 --> 00:31:30,480 uh 758 00:31:34,870 --> 00:31:34,080 a very great observer 759 00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:34,880 uh 760 00:31:37,509 --> 00:31:36,640 and very 761 00:31:39,830 --> 00:31:37,519 you know 762 00:31:42,950 --> 00:31:39,840 profoundly 763 00:31:44,870 --> 00:31:42,960 impacted by what he saw as a kid and 764 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:44,880 the fact that these people kept that 765 00:31:49,750 --> 00:31:47,840 secret and in those days 766 00:31:52,470 --> 00:31:49,760 you know you you have to go back to the 767 00:31:55,350 --> 00:31:52,480 days of of world war ii when nobody 768 00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:55,360 spoke there are still posters in the 769 00:32:00,149 --> 00:31:57,840 restaurants around that area that say 770 00:32:02,310 --> 00:32:00,159 you know from that time they'd say you 771 00:32:05,029 --> 00:32:02,320 see something you don't talk 772 00:32:06,710 --> 00:32:05,039 okay let let the army deal with it 773 00:32:08,470 --> 00:32:06,720 and that's what they did 774 00:32:12,389 --> 00:32:08,480 you know with this 775 00:32:14,549 --> 00:32:12,399 avocado that fell in on their ranch 776 00:32:18,310 --> 00:32:14,559 there is no way that's a hoax 777 00:32:19,269 --> 00:32:18,320 and uh for you know in the book i've 778 00:32:21,350 --> 00:32:19,279 um 779 00:32:23,509 --> 00:32:21,360 again you know my 780 00:32:26,549 --> 00:32:23,519 my contribution here 781 00:32:29,430 --> 00:32:26,559 is to look for patterns among all the 782 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:29,440 cases we have 783 00:32:34,389 --> 00:32:32,960 as part of the classified bas you know 784 00:32:37,350 --> 00:32:34,399 a-tip project 785 00:32:38,110 --> 00:32:37,360 i was in charge of designing a database 786 00:32:41,509 --> 00:32:38,120 so 787 00:32:44,470 --> 00:32:41,519 260 000 cases from all over the world 788 00:32:47,350 --> 00:32:44,480 which is a high water mark in terms of 789 00:32:50,070 --> 00:32:47,360 ai being applied to databases in this 790 00:32:53,190 --> 00:32:50,080 field yeah and uh 791 00:32:55,750 --> 00:32:53,200 so i the purpose of building that data 792 00:32:58,549 --> 00:32:55,760 warehouse if you will is to look for 793 00:33:01,750 --> 00:32:58,559 correlations from cases all over the 794 00:33:03,750 --> 00:33:01,760 world well we have two other cases that 795 00:33:05,269 --> 00:33:03,760 are well known that are in the books you 796 00:33:09,669 --> 00:33:05,279 have on your shelf 797 00:33:11,269 --> 00:33:09,679 that also have an oval object also have 798 00:33:14,230 --> 00:33:11,279 small creatures 799 00:33:16,230 --> 00:33:14,240 that breathe our air you know they don't 800 00:33:18,470 --> 00:33:16,240 they don't have a spacesuit 801 00:33:20,230 --> 00:33:18,480 no they they have some sort of overalls 802 00:33:22,389 --> 00:33:20,240 but they breathe air 803 00:33:25,190 --> 00:33:22,399 they are the same size they are about 804 00:33:29,029 --> 00:33:25,200 three feet tall exactly what the kids 805 00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:29,039 are telling us at you know at trinity 806 00:33:35,750 --> 00:33:32,720 the case at valencia in france 19 first 807 00:33:39,350 --> 00:33:35,760 or august 1st 1965 808 00:33:43,350 --> 00:33:39,360 and the case in socorro new mexico 809 00:33:46,389 --> 00:33:43,360 valencia and socorro are in the ufo 810 00:33:48,789 --> 00:33:46,399 files but they were not investigated by 811 00:33:50,470 --> 00:33:48,799 amateurs they were investigated by 812 00:33:54,710 --> 00:33:50,480 government agencies 813 00:33:57,110 --> 00:33:54,720 agencies of the united states 814 00:33:59,269 --> 00:33:57,120 uh in the case of socorro if you 815 00:34:01,190 --> 00:33:59,279 remember there were 816 00:34:04,070 --> 00:34:01,200 there was a week of investigations at 817 00:34:06,389 --> 00:34:04,080 the site there were fbi people who were 818 00:34:08,710 --> 00:34:06,399 there not about the case 819 00:34:12,149 --> 00:34:08,720 because it was a local case not a 820 00:34:15,190 --> 00:34:12,159 general case but they were there helping 821 00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:15,200 protect the traces and so on with the 822 00:34:21,589 --> 00:34:18,720 fbi guidelines and they helped interview 823 00:34:25,190 --> 00:34:21,599 the witness main witness who was a 824 00:34:27,669 --> 00:34:25,200 policeman in uniform who was 825 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:27,679 intrigued by this the sound and this 826 00:34:31,990 --> 00:34:29,760 object that had disappeared over the 827 00:34:34,869 --> 00:34:32,000 desert and then he confronted it and 828 00:34:38,869 --> 00:34:34,879 confronted two beings who were again 829 00:34:40,950 --> 00:34:38,879 short breathed our air head overalls and 830 00:34:42,069 --> 00:34:40,960 then re-entered the object of the object 831 00:34:45,430 --> 00:34:42,079 took off 832 00:34:48,310 --> 00:34:45,440 that was carried as unidentified 833 00:34:50,710 --> 00:34:48,320 in the air force lives therefore sent 834 00:34:53,510 --> 00:34:50,720 three investigators there including 835 00:34:56,069 --> 00:34:53,520 finally dr heineck 836 00:34:58,550 --> 00:34:56,079 and i worked at the time i was working 837 00:35:01,670 --> 00:34:58,560 with dr heineck so i helped in the 838 00:35:04,870 --> 00:35:01,680 analysis of all the testimony and 839 00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:04,880 the analysis of the case 840 00:35:09,349 --> 00:35:06,320 and then 841 00:35:10,870 --> 00:35:09,359 in france at valencia there were five 842 00:35:13,430 --> 00:35:10,880 different agencies of the french 843 00:35:15,670 --> 00:35:13,440 government became involved for a number 844 00:35:17,510 --> 00:35:15,680 of different reasons including the 845 00:35:19,270 --> 00:35:17,520 potential that this was 846 00:35:20,710 --> 00:35:19,280 some sort of vehicle 847 00:35:22,630 --> 00:35:20,720 transferring 848 00:35:25,750 --> 00:35:22,640 illegal things to switzerland from 849 00:35:27,270 --> 00:35:25,760 france so the customs got involved of 850 00:35:29,109 --> 00:35:27,280 course the air force of course the 851 00:35:31,430 --> 00:35:29,119 gender marine 852 00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:31,440 the police investigators police 853 00:35:36,069 --> 00:35:32,720 intelligence 854 00:35:39,270 --> 00:35:36,079 and uh so we know you know they all 855 00:35:42,230 --> 00:35:39,280 interviewed the witnesses again 856 00:35:44,710 --> 00:35:42,240 at valencia and i've been advancing i've 857 00:35:49,030 --> 00:35:44,720 met with the witness i've met with other 858 00:35:52,710 --> 00:35:50,950 because they didn't want anything to do 859 00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:52,720 with the media 860 00:35:59,510 --> 00:35:56,160 but they you know the media in france is 861 00:36:01,750 --> 00:35:59,520 somewhat of a you know the a lot of 862 00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:01,760 conversations are confidential there you 863 00:36:06,230 --> 00:36:03,920 know they they don't especially want the 864 00:36:07,270 --> 00:36:06,240 big to be on tv and so on that's not the 865 00:36:10,069 --> 00:36:07,280 idea 866 00:36:13,510 --> 00:36:10,079 so the the communities are very closed 867 00:36:15,670 --> 00:36:13,520 and i had the the benefit of being 868 00:36:16,470 --> 00:36:15,680 introduced by someone who had a house 869 00:36:18,230 --> 00:36:16,480 there 870 00:36:20,470 --> 00:36:18,240 the new the 871 00:36:22,150 --> 00:36:20,480 the the infrared people in the in the 872 00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:22,160 village in the town 873 00:36:27,109 --> 00:36:25,040 and so we had access to 874 00:36:28,550 --> 00:36:27,119 the things that were that the police 875 00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:28,560 never heard 876 00:36:35,349 --> 00:36:33,760 including the traces that were there 877 00:36:36,950 --> 00:36:35,359 including other cases in the 878 00:36:39,030 --> 00:36:36,960 neighborhoods 879 00:36:42,630 --> 00:36:39,040 so the case was not unique 880 00:36:44,390 --> 00:36:42,640 but the um 881 00:36:46,950 --> 00:36:44,400 the case was 882 00:36:48,870 --> 00:36:46,960 strong enough that there was absolutely 883 00:36:52,150 --> 00:36:48,880 no question about what was there and the 884 00:36:53,750 --> 00:36:52,160 traces that were left in the field were 885 00:36:56,470 --> 00:36:53,760 incontrovertible 886 00:36:59,829 --> 00:36:56,480 so here we have three cases 887 00:37:00,870 --> 00:36:59,839 forming a pattern across time and across 888 00:37:03,270 --> 00:37:00,880 space 889 00:37:04,790 --> 00:37:03,280 you know two of them in new mexico and 890 00:37:06,630 --> 00:37:04,800 one in france 891 00:37:09,430 --> 00:37:06,640 thoroughly investigated 892 00:37:11,430 --> 00:37:09,440 and with with confirming 893 00:37:13,510 --> 00:37:11,440 data 894 00:37:15,910 --> 00:37:13,520 it's fascinating yeah the the 895 00:37:17,990 --> 00:37:15,920 correlations are just stunning if you 896 00:37:19,910 --> 00:37:18,000 think about it and only years apart too 897 00:37:21,670 --> 00:37:19,920 so you truly have to wonder 898 00:37:24,630 --> 00:37:21,680 you know are we dealing with the same 899 00:37:27,270 --> 00:37:24,640 technology or intelligence behind said 900 00:37:29,589 --> 00:37:27,280 craft uh i don't know there's a million 901 00:37:31,430 --> 00:37:29,599 questions to come after that 902 00:37:33,589 --> 00:37:31,440 take it to the next level we have to 903 00:37:35,829 --> 00:37:33,599 wonder 904 00:37:37,990 --> 00:37:35,839 why is it that i mean we have this 905 00:37:39,030 --> 00:37:38,000 extraordinary weapon which is the atomic 906 00:37:42,069 --> 00:37:39,040 bomb 907 00:37:43,589 --> 00:37:42,079 right why we used it we didn't use it in 908 00:37:46,310 --> 00:37:43,599 korea 909 00:37:49,670 --> 00:37:46,320 we didn't use it in vietnam 910 00:37:51,589 --> 00:37:49,680 russia has never used it in its own 911 00:37:54,390 --> 00:37:51,599 conflicts around the world 912 00:37:56,550 --> 00:37:54,400 france has never used it 913 00:37:59,670 --> 00:37:56,560 why 914 00:38:02,550 --> 00:37:59,680 it's the first time in history that 915 00:38:05,109 --> 00:38:02,560 a a weapon that is extraordinarily 916 00:38:06,310 --> 00:38:05,119 effective 917 00:38:09,990 --> 00:38:06,320 has 918 00:38:13,190 --> 00:38:10,000 not been used for you know uh 919 00:38:17,430 --> 00:38:15,109 really good point yeah 920 00:38:20,310 --> 00:38:17,440 does that have something to do with 921 00:38:22,470 --> 00:38:20,320 was trinity a signal to us from 922 00:38:24,550 --> 00:38:22,480 something else i mean that's 923 00:38:27,829 --> 00:38:24,560 i cannot answer that question but we 924 00:38:30,630 --> 00:38:27,839 have to ask the question 925 00:38:33,030 --> 00:38:30,640 yeah absolutely um well 926 00:38:34,790 --> 00:38:33,040 in terms of that shock another question 927 00:38:37,670 --> 00:38:34,800 for you concerning this case the the 928 00:38:40,230 --> 00:38:37,680 witness of sabrina um i found the 929 00:38:43,030 --> 00:38:40,240 interviews in the book fascinating that 930 00:38:45,589 --> 00:38:43,040 uh paula conducted with her especially 931 00:38:47,430 --> 00:38:45,599 when it came to the 932 00:38:49,910 --> 00:38:47,440 when when i read that 933 00:38:51,910 --> 00:38:49,920 you know these materials that were 934 00:38:53,990 --> 00:38:51,920 supposedly taken from the site by one of 935 00:38:55,030 --> 00:38:54,000 the witnesses uh 936 00:38:57,430 --> 00:38:55,040 acted 937 00:38:59,109 --> 00:38:57,440 just like what we heard the testimony in 938 00:39:02,390 --> 00:38:59,119 roswell you know these 939 00:39:04,390 --> 00:39:02,400 memory metals as it were uh that really 940 00:39:06,550 --> 00:39:04,400 blew me away i mean again this was years 941 00:39:08,630 --> 00:39:06,560 prior to roswell so you have to wonder 942 00:39:09,510 --> 00:39:08,640 again are we dealing with some of the 943 00:39:12,150 --> 00:39:09,520 same 944 00:39:14,870 --> 00:39:12,160 technology or whoever manufactured these 945 00:39:17,510 --> 00:39:14,880 craft uh what are your thoughts on this 946 00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:17,520 memory medal being found at both sides 947 00:39:23,109 --> 00:39:21,119 well uh sabrina is is a treasure you 948 00:39:27,030 --> 00:39:23,119 know um 949 00:39:30,150 --> 00:39:27,040 paola uh you know had 950 00:39:32,790 --> 00:39:30,160 heard that there was you know from 951 00:39:34,230 --> 00:39:32,800 from uh mr padilla 952 00:39:36,790 --> 00:39:34,240 that other 953 00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:36,800 family members had been around 954 00:39:40,230 --> 00:39:38,800 afterwards she's not a witness to the 955 00:39:42,790 --> 00:39:40,240 initial 956 00:39:44,310 --> 00:39:42,800 crash you know the crash landing 957 00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:44,320 but she 958 00:39:47,990 --> 00:39:45,760 was there 959 00:39:49,349 --> 00:39:48,000 during the following years 960 00:39:52,470 --> 00:39:49,359 when 961 00:39:53,349 --> 00:39:52,480 a lot of things were still recoverable 962 00:39:54,790 --> 00:39:53,359 from 963 00:39:56,470 --> 00:39:54,800 the site 964 00:39:57,990 --> 00:39:56,480 and the local people 965 00:39:59,190 --> 00:39:58,000 came up with 966 00:40:02,710 --> 00:39:59,200 things that 967 00:40:04,550 --> 00:40:02,720 you know they were very curious about um 968 00:40:06,870 --> 00:40:04,560 including 969 00:40:08,790 --> 00:40:06,880 a number of things not not just the 970 00:40:11,829 --> 00:40:08,800 memory medal 971 00:40:13,829 --> 00:40:11,839 but also strange fibers 972 00:40:14,950 --> 00:40:13,839 that grow 973 00:40:16,790 --> 00:40:14,960 now 974 00:40:17,750 --> 00:40:16,800 if if you remember 975 00:40:19,910 --> 00:40:17,760 um 976 00:40:21,430 --> 00:40:19,920 you know there are those fibers are 977 00:40:25,030 --> 00:40:21,440 described in 978 00:40:27,750 --> 00:40:25,040 you know in in other places carol corso 979 00:40:30,390 --> 00:40:27,760 who was interviewed also by 980 00:40:32,950 --> 00:40:30,400 paola harris published a book of her 981 00:40:35,109 --> 00:40:32,960 interviews with carmel carlson 982 00:40:38,069 --> 00:40:35,119 especially her interviews in italy where 983 00:40:40,550 --> 00:40:38,079 he was free to talk i mean he was 984 00:40:42,390 --> 00:40:40,560 somewhat cautious in the us because he 985 00:40:44,390 --> 00:40:42,400 had been told that there were some 986 00:40:48,150 --> 00:40:44,400 things he shouldn't talk about 987 00:40:49,349 --> 00:40:48,160 and you know he sort of followed that 988 00:40:50,630 --> 00:40:49,359 you know 989 00:40:54,790 --> 00:40:50,640 that 990 00:40:56,710 --> 00:40:54,800 in europe he felt free to 991 00:40:58,069 --> 00:40:56,720 to talk about more of the details of 992 00:41:00,230 --> 00:40:58,079 what he had seen 993 00:41:01,510 --> 00:41:00,240 so paula's book is very important in 994 00:41:02,390 --> 00:41:01,520 that regard 995 00:41:08,309 --> 00:41:02,400 and 996 00:41:11,349 --> 00:41:08,319 you know under the auspices of the 997 00:41:14,870 --> 00:41:11,359 bigarou project in las vegas we had two 998 00:41:15,829 --> 00:41:14,880 days we brought him to las vegas to talk 999 00:41:21,109 --> 00:41:15,839 to the 1000 00:41:24,230 --> 00:41:21,119 two days 1001 00:41:26,150 --> 00:41:24,240 and i had private conversations with him 1002 00:41:28,069 --> 00:41:26,160 because he wanted to talk about things 1003 00:41:30,309 --> 00:41:28,079 that related to france and things 1004 00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:30,319 related to physics 1005 00:41:34,870 --> 00:41:33,040 that were not part of the you know the 1006 00:41:36,390 --> 00:41:34,880 major conversations 1007 00:41:37,270 --> 00:41:36,400 and 1008 00:41:39,589 --> 00:41:37,280 the 1009 00:41:43,430 --> 00:41:39,599 i asked him you know he was talking 1010 00:41:46,390 --> 00:41:43,440 about those fibers as fiber optics and i 1011 00:41:47,589 --> 00:41:46,400 i had a little argument with him uh i 1012 00:41:49,430 --> 00:41:47,599 said you know 1013 00:41:52,550 --> 00:41:49,440 fiber optics doesn't work like that i 1014 00:41:55,829 --> 00:41:52,560 mean fiber optics doesn't glow you know 1015 00:41:58,470 --> 00:41:55,839 uh along the length of the fiber you put 1016 00:42:00,790 --> 00:41:58,480 a light at one end very very carefully 1017 00:42:02,550 --> 00:42:00,800 at a particular you know 1018 00:42:05,109 --> 00:42:02,560 particular frequency 1019 00:42:05,990 --> 00:42:05,119 it comes out you know 100 kilometers 1020 00:42:08,390 --> 00:42:06,000 later 1021 00:42:10,790 --> 00:42:08,400 in your computer okay but it doesn't 1022 00:42:12,950 --> 00:42:10,800 glow in between that 1023 00:42:14,950 --> 00:42:12,960 and those those fibers that he was 1024 00:42:17,670 --> 00:42:14,960 describing were growing 1025 00:42:19,750 --> 00:42:17,680 in different colors all along their 1026 00:42:22,470 --> 00:42:19,760 length okay and those were 1027 00:42:24,550 --> 00:42:22,480 fibers that he had been given 1028 00:42:26,069 --> 00:42:24,560 by the pentagon you know not by a 1029 00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:26,079 witness somewhere in 1030 00:42:32,550 --> 00:42:29,200 the field but by the pentagon after a 1031 00:42:34,550 --> 00:42:32,560 number of recoveries of ufos by now we 1032 00:42:36,470 --> 00:42:34,560 know that i mean it's not come on it's 1033 00:42:38,309 --> 00:42:36,480 not a secret anymore i mean everybody 1034 00:42:41,349 --> 00:42:38,319 knows right so 1035 00:42:44,309 --> 00:42:41,359 uh he was given a box of of different 1036 00:42:47,109 --> 00:42:44,319 things that he gave to different lands 1037 00:42:49,990 --> 00:42:47,119 and we have a pretty good idea of who 1038 00:42:52,630 --> 00:42:50,000 who would have been given that material 1039 00:42:55,030 --> 00:42:52,640 the the labs were not told that it came 1040 00:42:56,950 --> 00:42:55,040 from a ufo 1041 00:42:59,510 --> 00:42:56,960 i think they were smart enough to guess 1042 00:43:01,349 --> 00:42:59,520 that when once they put it under a 1043 00:43:04,069 --> 00:43:01,359 microscope they could 1044 00:43:06,870 --> 00:43:04,079 they could tell that that technology was 1045 00:43:10,230 --> 00:43:06,880 way ahead of what what they had even 1046 00:43:11,349 --> 00:43:10,240 with ibm you know even at mattel even at 1047 00:43:12,390 --> 00:43:11,359 lockheed 1048 00:43:13,190 --> 00:43:12,400 but 1049 00:43:14,470 --> 00:43:13,200 the 1050 00:43:15,349 --> 00:43:14,480 um 1051 00:43:20,150 --> 00:43:15,359 the 1052 00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,160 is 1053 00:43:25,109 --> 00:43:22,560 and as you know we found one more 1054 00:43:27,829 --> 00:43:25,119 witness which is the new witness that's 1055 00:43:31,430 --> 00:43:27,839 in the in the red book in the the new 1056 00:43:32,230 --> 00:43:31,440 edition in the red edition of of trinity 1057 00:43:34,950 --> 00:43:32,240 uh 1058 00:43:38,390 --> 00:43:34,960 who came in much later and did not know 1059 00:43:41,190 --> 00:43:38,400 about the ufo itself 1060 00:43:43,190 --> 00:43:41,200 and because by then nobody you know that 1061 00:43:44,790 --> 00:43:43,200 had passed and the people who knew about 1062 00:43:47,670 --> 00:43:44,800 it when he talked 1063 00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:47,680 but he knew about the fibers and we we 1064 00:43:51,670 --> 00:43:49,440 had that conversation that again 1065 00:43:54,630 --> 00:43:51,680 confirms that the 1066 00:43:57,430 --> 00:43:54,640 the the the succeeding events 1067 00:44:01,030 --> 00:43:57,440 so we have a pretty good idea 1068 00:44:04,390 --> 00:44:01,040 that um now 1069 00:44:07,670 --> 00:44:04,400 the metal that keeps its shape there are 1070 00:44:10,069 --> 00:44:07,680 two different versions of it one version 1071 00:44:11,349 --> 00:44:10,079 was developed in fact and came into 1072 00:44:14,550 --> 00:44:11,359 existence 1073 00:44:16,150 --> 00:44:14,560 in american industry later so i've 1074 00:44:18,710 --> 00:44:16,160 always been 1075 00:44:21,270 --> 00:44:18,720 you know a little bit skeptical 1076 00:44:22,710 --> 00:44:21,280 about one as well because at the time of 1077 00:44:26,069 --> 00:44:22,720 roswell 1078 00:44:30,069 --> 00:44:28,710 experiments in various laboratories 1079 00:44:32,069 --> 00:44:30,079 about 1080 00:44:34,390 --> 00:44:32,079 memory metal 1081 00:44:37,109 --> 00:44:34,400 you know metal that you can bend or you 1082 00:44:41,030 --> 00:44:37,119 can you know you can shuffle and it will 1083 00:44:42,309 --> 00:44:41,040 get back to its you know flat uh state 1084 00:44:43,750 --> 00:44:42,319 um 1085 00:44:46,390 --> 00:44:43,760 that 1086 00:44:50,230 --> 00:44:46,400 at least the principle was was known by 1087 00:44:54,390 --> 00:44:53,109 don't know whether it had been 1088 00:44:57,990 --> 00:44:54,400 actually 1089 00:44:59,349 --> 00:44:58,000 manufactured developed in in the lab in 1090 00:45:02,950 --> 00:44:59,359 in quality 1091 00:45:05,270 --> 00:45:02,960 but certainly the principle was had been 1092 00:45:08,150 --> 00:45:05,280 formulated 1093 00:45:10,150 --> 00:45:08,160 1945 it's hard to 1094 00:45:12,710 --> 00:45:10,160 that that's again one of the benefits of 1095 00:45:15,829 --> 00:45:12,720 this case of the trinity case is that it 1096 00:45:18,550 --> 00:45:15,839 puts us two years before all of that you 1097 00:45:22,230 --> 00:45:18,560 know when we call flying saucers before 1098 00:45:24,790 --> 00:45:22,240 can i follow before the cia before all 1099 00:45:26,309 --> 00:45:24,800 of that you know before the air force 1100 00:45:28,790 --> 00:45:26,319 so 1101 00:45:30,630 --> 00:45:28,800 what was that shape 1102 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:30,640 keeping material 1103 00:45:33,910 --> 00:45:33,119 doing in the middle of a ranch 1104 00:45:36,390 --> 00:45:33,920 uh 1105 00:45:38,710 --> 00:45:36,400 you know in new mexico mars from the 1106 00:45:41,829 --> 00:45:38,720 nearest town 1107 00:45:42,870 --> 00:45:41,839 uh how did it get there and why was it 1108 00:45:44,950 --> 00:45:42,880 there 1109 00:45:47,270 --> 00:45:44,960 the the fibers again are very 1110 00:45:48,390 --> 00:45:47,280 interesting and then sabrina described 1111 00:45:50,790 --> 00:45:48,400 to us 1112 00:45:53,510 --> 00:45:50,800 a number of other things 1113 00:45:58,150 --> 00:45:53,520 like uh you know metallic 1114 00:45:59,750 --> 00:45:58,160 plates uh you know long long plates 1115 00:46:02,550 --> 00:45:59,760 of you know 1116 00:46:03,589 --> 00:46:02,560 12 or 18 inches long 1117 00:46:06,309 --> 00:46:03,599 that 1118 00:46:08,950 --> 00:46:06,319 have very very interesting properties 1119 00:46:10,470 --> 00:46:08,960 and her grandfather was playing with 1120 00:46:11,510 --> 00:46:10,480 those 1121 00:46:13,589

if anybody finds those fibers 1125 00:46:22,470 --> 00:46:20,960 don't play with them 1126 00:46:24,309 --> 00:46:22,480 you know be careful when you play with 1127 00:46:28,150 --> 00:46:24,319 them

00:46:59,589 --> 00:46:56,480 impact of the the object on the tower 1141 00:47:01,589 --> 00:46:59,599 you know one panel blew up and it blew 1142 00:47:04,550 --> 00:47:01,599 up in the form of all those fibers and 1143 00:47:05,510 --> 00:47:04,560 they found heaps of fibers on the ground 1144 00:47:07,910 --> 00:47:05,520 so 1145 00:47:10,069 --> 00:47:07,920 they they kept it and it growed in

1155 00:47:33,349 --> 00:47:30,480 including some levels 1156 00:47:35,670 --> 00:47:33,359 about the history of the end of the war 1157 00:47:37,109 --> 00:47:35,680 that kept me crying you know i mean for 1158 00:47:39,430 --> 00:47:37,119 a while i couldn't 1159 00:47:40,950 --> 00:47:39,440 talk about that aspect of it of what 1160 00:47:44,710 --> 00:47:40,960 happened to the bomb 1161 00:47:46,790 --> 00:47:44,720 you know when it was in japan you know 1162 00:47:47,990 --> 00:47:46,800 i i couldn't talk about it without 1163 00:47:50,230 --> 00:47:48,000 crying 1164 00:47:52,630 --> 00:47:50,240 and i know other people who you know 1165 00:47:54,630 --> 00:47:52,640 went for the same same experience 1166 00:47:57,910 --> 00:47:54,640 because what i what i learned about 1167 00:48:00,230 --> 00:47:57,920 their history of the end of world war ii 1168 00:48:02,550 --> 00:48:00,240 was devastating 1169 00:48:04,470 --> 00:48:02,560 and it's another history we're teaching 1170 00:48:05,670 --> 00:48:04,480 in school 1171 00:48:08,150 --> 00:48:05,680 right 1172 00:48:10,870 --> 00:48:08,160 yeah and you know again we have to keep 1173 00:48:11,829 --> 00:48:10,880 in mind the time period in which this 1174 00:48:14,349 --> 00:48:11,839 case 1175 00:48:16,950 --> 00:48:14,359 occurred and the the 1176 00:48:19,190 --> 00:48:16,960 unbelievable loss of life that would 1177 00:48:22,230 --> 00:48:19,200 ultimately come from you know these 1178 00:48:24,390 --> 00:48:22,240 tests at trinity and uh like you always 1179 00:48:25,910 --> 00:48:24,400 say jacques like the ufo case is one 1180 00:48:28,950 --> 00:48:25,920 thing but when you put it into the 1181 00:48:30,870 --> 00:48:28,960 historical context of the time uh it 1182 00:48:33,190 --> 00:48:30,880 becomes such a bigger story especially 1183 00:48:35,349 --> 00:48:33,200 with what's going on uh not just in 1184 00:48:37,750 --> 00:48:35,359 america but all over the world you know 1185 00:48:39,510 --> 00:48:37,760 when this was happening too it's 1186 00:48:41,109 --> 00:48:39,520 again i think people sometimes lose 1187 00:48:43,670 --> 00:48:41,119 sight of the historical 1188 00:48:45,430 --> 00:48:43,680 perspective when it comes to these cases 1189 00:48:47,510 --> 00:48:45,440 we're making right now you were asking 1190 00:48:49,030 --> 00:48:47,520 me at the beginning you know what about 1191 00:48:51,430 --> 00:48:49,040 this change 1192 00:48:53,750 --> 00:48:51,440 you know that's this 1193 00:48:54,549 --> 00:48:53,760 in in in history 1194 00:48:57,430 --> 00:48:54,559 uh 1195 00:48:59,829 --> 00:48:57,440 that now the the subject is open and 1196 00:49:02,390 --> 00:48:59,839 it's recognized and it's not you know 1197 00:49:04,470 --> 00:49:02,400 it's not a joke anymore it's not 1198 00:49:07,270 --> 00:49:04,480 but um 1199 00:49:08,870 --> 00:49:07,280 in the u.s we're looking at it strictly 1200 00:49:12,309 --> 00:49:08,880 as an american 1201 00:49:14,549 --> 00:49:12,319 phenomenon you know the nimitz so on 1202 00:49:19,190 --> 00:49:14,559 well you know it isn't an american 1203 00:49:22,950 --> 00:49:19,200 phenomenon

00:54:34,630 --> 00:54:32,240 apple podcasts spotify or wherever you 1325 00:54:35,829 --> 00:54:34,640 listen to somewhere in the skies and 1326 00:54:39,349 --> 00:54:35,839 remember 1327 00:54:45,109 --> 00:54:41,910 yeah it does speak to the frustration i 1328 00:54:47,430 --> 00:54:45,119 think a lot of people have with how 1329 00:54:48,950 --> 00:54:47,440 i guess cagey the united states is when 1330 00:54:50,390 --> 00:54:48,960 it comes to this you know there seems to 1331 00:54:51,270 --> 00:54:50,400 be a 1332 00:54:53,589 --> 00:54:51,280 weird 1333 00:54:55,829 --> 00:54:53,599 intelligence game going on when it comes 1334 00:54:58,309 --> 00:54:55,839 to how transparent they're willing to 1335 00:55:00,069 --> 00:54:58,319 with the public and with other countries 1336 00:55:01,190 --> 00:55:00,079 because again if these things are 1337 00:55:03,349 --> 00:55:01,200 crashing 1338 00:55:05,430 --> 00:55:03,359 in the united states and all over the 1339 00:55:07,750 --> 00:55:05,440 world you know you do truly have to 1340 00:55:10,630 --> 00:55:07,760 wonder how much information does that 1341 00:55:13,030 --> 00:55:10,640 nation want to share with another nation 1342 00:55:14,470 --> 00:55:13,040 and what they might possess it's it's a 1343 00:55:15,990 --> 00:55:14,480 you know a question we'll be asking 1344 00:55:18,150 --> 00:55:16,000 forever 1345 00:55:20,630 --> 00:55:18,160 you know you know of course we as 1346 00:55:23,349 --> 00:55:20,640 scientists we like crash cases because 1347 00:55:26,069 --> 00:55:23,359 we get material from them but we also 1348 00:55:28,309 --> 00:55:26,079 get material from cases that are just 1349 00:55:30,549 --> 00:55:28,319 landings and not crashes i mean in 1350 00:55:33,430 --> 00:55:30,559 socorro it didn't crash 1351 00:55:34,470 --> 00:55:33,440 you know so-called is extraordinary and 1352 00:55:36,710 --> 00:55:34,480 in in 1353 00:55:37,829 --> 00:55:36,720 you know in this book i i've i've 1354 00:55:39,990 --> 00:55:37,839 brought back 1355 00:55:42,630 --> 00:55:40,000 some details about socorro that have 1356 00:55:43,990 --> 00:55:42,640 never been published because some of the 1357 00:55:47,109 --> 00:55:44,000 testimony 1358 00:55:50,390 --> 00:55:47,119 remained private i mean it wasn't secret 1359 00:55:53,030 --> 00:55:50,400 it wasn't covered by any any secrecy it 1360 00:55:55,349 --> 00:55:53,040 was just private and it was recorded and 1361 00:55:56,390 --> 00:55:55,359 it went into a file i happened to have 1362 00:55:58,390 --> 00:55:56,400 the fight 1363 00:56:01,349 --> 00:55:58,400 because i was i worked again i worked 1364 00:56:03,750 --> 00:56:01,359 with dr heineck and i was i was 1365 00:56:06,069 --> 00:56:03,760 fascinated with the case we 1366 00:56:07,990 --> 00:56:06,079 brought together a team from people at 1367 00:56:10,789 --> 00:56:08,000 the university of chicago people at 1368 00:56:13,190 --> 00:56:10,799 northwestern university to look at all 1369 00:56:14,230 --> 00:56:13,200 the data from socorro that dr heineck 1370 00:56:17,430 --> 00:56:14,240 brought back 1371 00:56:18,789 --> 00:56:17,440 and uh you know it's it's a case that 1372 00:56:20,950 --> 00:56:18,799 just keeps 1373 00:56:23,190 --> 00:56:20,960 we keep learning new things about it as 1374 00:56:24,069 --> 00:56:23,200 we go along and that's that's in the 1375 00:56:25,270 --> 00:56:24,079 book 1376 00:56:27,990 --> 00:56:25,280 um so 1377 00:56:31,190 --> 00:56:28,000 those cases valencia of course is not a 1378 00:56:33,990 --> 00:56:31,200 crash it's a controlled landing 1379 00:56:35,349 --> 00:56:34,000 and so coral is a controlled landing 1380 00:56:37,670 --> 00:56:35,359 by the way 1381 00:56:39,589 --> 00:56:37,680 when you go to the site which i i've 1382 00:56:41,910 --> 00:56:39,599 i've gone several times and i've gone 1383 00:56:44,789 --> 00:56:41,920 there with the with paul heineck you 1384 00:56:47,750 --> 00:56:44,799 know the dr dr paul heineck was 1385 00:56:50,710 --> 00:56:47,760 the son of of professor heineck 1386 00:56:53,750 --> 00:56:50,720 and uh with i had the pleasure of taking 1387 00:56:54,870 --> 00:56:53,760 him to the site of the socorro uh 1388 00:56:57,510 --> 00:56:54,880 landing 1389 00:57:00,630 --> 00:56:57,520 um the the site is 1390 00:57:03,430 --> 00:57:00,640 you know is completely torn up by 1391 00:57:06,230 --> 00:57:03,440 by little creeks by i mean it's a part 1392 00:57:09,190 --> 00:57:06,240 of the desert that you know it's on the 1393 00:57:11,589 --> 00:57:09,200 side of the hill with big stones and 1394 00:57:13,910 --> 00:57:11,599 everything else it's the last place 1395 00:57:15,430 --> 00:57:13,920 where you would land a prototype of 1396 00:57:19,030 --> 00:57:15,440 something as well 1397 00:57:21,349 --> 00:57:19,040 it turns out that there was an analysis 1398 00:57:22,390 --> 00:57:21,359 from the traces or traces were very well 1399 00:57:24,549 --> 00:57:22,400 preserved 1400 00:57:27,750 --> 00:57:24,559 and from the analysis of the traces and 1401 00:57:30,710 --> 00:57:27,760 their geometry you can reconstruct what 1402 00:57:33,430 --> 00:57:30,720 that landing gear was like 1403 00:57:34,870 --> 00:57:33,440 the blending gear has geometric 1404 00:57:37,109 --> 00:57:34,880 properties 1405 00:57:40,549 --> 00:57:37,119 that we could have used on the moon you 1406 00:57:43,430 --> 00:57:40,559 know if you have to land on on 1407 00:57:45,109 --> 00:57:43,440 you know a place that's uneven 1408 00:57:46,870 --> 00:57:45,119 now you remember 1409 00:57:48,150 --> 00:57:46,880 when they landed the first time on the 1410 00:57:51,990 --> 00:57:48,160 moon they were 1411 00:57:55,510 --> 00:57:52,000 they almost ran out of of power you know 1412 00:57:58,309 --> 00:57:55,520 just a few minutes uh because they were 1413 00:57:59,190 --> 00:57:58,319 looking for a flat place to land 1414 00:58:01,990 --> 00:57:59,200 well 1415 00:58:05,589 --> 00:58:02,000 the thing that landed at socorro which 1416 00:58:07,190 --> 00:58:05,599 was estimated that weighing several tons 1417 00:58:10,870 --> 00:58:07,200 and we still don't understand what the 1418 00:58:17,190 --> 00:58:14,710 landed on completely uneven terrain and 1419 00:58:18,710 --> 00:58:17,200 the pirates didn't care 1420 00:58:21,589 --> 00:58:18,720 they knew they could 1421 00:58:24,549 --> 00:58:21,599 level on they trusted their landing here 1422 00:58:27,109 --> 00:58:24,559 completely and it was you know a complex 1423 00:58:29,510 --> 00:58:27,119 landing gear was a complex machine by 1424 00:58:31,349 --> 00:58:29,520 itself and then the skeptics say oh you 1425 00:58:33,829 --> 00:58:31,359 know it must have been a balloon 1426 00:58:34,710 --> 00:58:33,839 well you know go there and tell me if 1427 00:58:38,390 --> 00:58:34,720 you can 1428 00:58:42,950 --> 00:58:40,470 uh you know a balloon would look for a 1429 00:58:44,230 --> 00:58:42,960 flat you know flat area 1430 00:58:46,230 --> 00:58:44,240 it would 1431 00:58:47,349 --> 00:58:46,240 land in the middle of a bunch of 1432 00:58:48,870 --> 00:58:47,359 boulders 1433 00:58:51,270 --> 00:58:48,880 so 1434 00:58:54,230 --> 00:58:51,280 they um 1435 00:58:55,349 --> 00:58:54,240 you know i've learned so much so much in 1436 00:59:06,549 --> 00:58:55,359 in 1437 00:59:08,230 --> 00:59:06,559 um oh yes 1438 00:59:13,990 --> 00:59:08,240 because 1439 00:59:15,190 --> 00:59:14,000 and maybe you know there are not many 1440 00:59:17,750 --> 00:59:15,200 cases 1441 00:59:20,230 --> 00:59:17,760 in the ufo archives 1442 00:59:22,950 --> 00:59:20,240 where the witness has been followed 1443 00:59:25,510 --> 00:59:22,960 throughout his life 1444 00:59:27,990 --> 00:59:25,520 just that so you know something happens 1445 00:59:30,230 --> 00:59:28,000 you go there you meet a witness 1446 00:59:33,190 --> 00:59:30,240 uh you document you know what he does 1447 00:59:34,950 --> 00:59:33,200 and his family and so on and then you 1448 00:59:37,510 --> 00:59:34,960 interview him about what he saw and then 1449 00:59:40,309 --> 00:59:37,520 you go home and you know you publish an 1450 00:59:41,670 --> 00:59:40,319 article about it if it's interesting 1451 00:59:44,150 --> 00:59:41,680 but 1452 00:59:46,870 --> 00:59:44,160 very rarely do people say 1453 00:59:49,510 --> 00:59:46,880 have you seen something like that before 1454 00:59:52,069 --> 00:59:49,520 or what were you doing you know the week 1455 00:59:54,150 --> 00:59:52,079 previous to your sighting 1456 00:59:56,230 --> 00:59:54,160 uh what happened to you after your 1457 00:59:58,710 --> 00:59:56,240 experience did you have strange dreams

01:08:33,520 i mean you know you you grow up in the 1674 01:08:36,470 --> 01:08:35,759 fields you grow up around farms you grow 1675 01:08:38,390 --> 01:08:36,480 up 1676 01:08:41,110 --> 01:08:38,400 around that even you know 1677 01:08:43,430 --> 01:08:41,120 though i lived in the town but i was i 1678 01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:43,440 was off and gone you know in the 1679 01:08:48,149 --> 01:08:46,000 countryside now there are lots of things 1680 01:08:50,390 --> 01:08:48,159 that you know you take a scientist from 1681 01:08:52,229 --> 01:08:50,400 a university and you send him in the 1682 01:08:54,950 --> 01:08:52,239 middle of you know in the middle of 1683 01:08:57,829 --> 01:08:54,960 kansas he's going to miss a lot of 1684 01:08:58,789 --> 01:08:57,839 things that the local farmer is going to 1685 01:09:00,470 --> 01:08:58,799 notice 1686 01:09:02,390 --> 01:09:00,480 you know about the 1687 01:09:05,349 --> 01:09:02,400 you know the color of the vegetation 1688 01:09:08,229 --> 01:09:05,359 about the the rain patterns about the 1689 01:09:10,229 --> 01:09:08,239 clouds about about all of that about the 1690 01:09:12,470 --> 01:09:10,239 behavior of the birds 1691 01:09:14,229 --> 01:09:12,480 that you know a scientist from stanford 1692 01:09:15,189 --> 01:09:14,239 isn't going to know 1693 01:09:18,470 --> 01:09:15,199 so 1694 01:09:20,709 --> 01:09:18,480 those kids and kids especially i mean 1695 01:09:23,349 --> 01:09:20,719 any psychologist will tell you 1696 01:09:24,950 --> 01:09:23,359 that in a in a car accident or an 1697 01:09:27,590 --> 01:09:24,960 aircraft accident 1698 01:09:30,550 --> 01:09:27,600 the kids are likely to give you the best 1699 01:09:31,749 --> 01:09:30,560 testimony because it's not colored by 1700 01:09:34,470 --> 01:09:31,759 their 1701 01:09:36,550 --> 01:09:34,480 adult interpretation of the event 1702 01:09:38,789 --> 01:09:36,560 they'll correct it they will tell you 1703 01:09:41,189 --> 01:09:38,799 exactly what happened 1704 01:09:42,789 --> 01:09:41,199 and it may be covered by emotion and all 1705 01:09:43,990 --> 01:09:42,799 that of course but 1706 01:09:46,950 --> 01:09:44,000 but the 1707 01:09:49,269 --> 01:09:46,960 the testimony has special value 1708 01:09:51,829 --> 01:09:49,279 you know with good 1709 01:09:54,630 --> 01:09:51,839 kids who are good observers and that's 1710 01:09:56,870 --> 01:09:54,640 what we have at trinity you know 1711 01:09:59,270 --> 01:09:56,880 and uh that's what we have in so many 1712 01:10:02,709 --> 01:09:59,280 other cases and that's what we had with 1713 01:10:05,030 --> 01:10:02,719 with juan in argentina when we when you 1714 01:10:07,590 --> 01:10:05,040 see him later in life 1715 01:10:08,790 --> 01:10:07,600 you know in his 50s with his 1716 01:10:11,910 --> 01:10:08,800 dogs 1717 01:10:13,030 --> 01:10:11,920 and you know with his um 1718 01:10:16,149 --> 01:10:13,040 uh 1719 01:10:16,870 --> 01:10:16,159 you know the animals around him you know 1720 01:10:24,229 --> 01:10:16,880 he 1721 01:10:26,709 --> 01:10:24,239 uh you know by 1722 01:10:29,110 --> 01:10:26,719 as a result of the movie he was living 1723 01:10:32,310 --> 01:10:29,120 alone on his own farm 1724 01:10:34,709 --> 01:10:32,320 with with the animals and it's very 1725 01:10:37,590 --> 01:10:34,719 extraordinary when you see the you know 1726 01:10:39,590 --> 01:10:37,600 his relationship it's closeness with 1727 01:10:41,430 --> 01:10:39,600 with the animals there and with with the 1728 01:10:42,310 --> 01:10:41,440 dog 1729 01:10:45,910 --> 01:10:42,320 yeah 1730 01:10:48,550 --> 01:10:45,920 missing 1731 01:10:50,790 --> 01:10:48,560 right exactly jacques and you know the 1732 01:10:53,350 --> 01:10:50,800 fact that he found his tribe finally 1733 01:10:55,189 --> 01:10:53,360 found his people i think is rewarding 1734 01:10:57,669 --> 01:10:55,199 enough even though he may never truly 1735 01:10:59,669 --> 01:10:57,679 know what it was he encountered uh the 1736 01:11:02,950 --> 01:10:59,679 fact that ellen stephen the filmmaker 1737 01:11:05,590 --> 01:11:02,960 and and yourself put so much care into 1738 01:11:07,430 --> 01:11:05,600 just trying to find this guy closure uh 1739 01:11:09,669 --> 01:11:07,440 is rewarding enough and i think it was 1740 01:11:11,669 --> 01:11:09,679 for viewers of the documentary and i 1741 01:11:14,070 --> 01:11:11,679 hope it was for you as an investigator 1742 01:11:16,310 --> 01:11:14,080 on this case as well knowing how much 1743 01:11:18,630 --> 01:11:16,320 you actually helped this individual no 1744 01:11:21,430 --> 01:11:18,640 way that either that that case in 1745 01:11:24,550 --> 01:11:21,440 argentina or the case in trinity uh 1746 01:11:26,790 --> 01:11:24,560 wouldn't change me you know in 1747 01:11:29,030 --> 01:11:26,800 a fairly profound ways 1748 01:11:31,189 --> 01:11:29,040 but 1749 01:11:33,750 --> 01:11:31,199 you know i'll tell you one thing and 1750 01:11:36,310 --> 01:11:33,760 you when you approach a witness 1751 01:11:39,189 --> 01:11:36,320 as as we did recently and we thought we 1752 01:11:41,110 --> 01:11:39,199 were done essentially with the book when 1753 01:11:42,390 --> 01:11:41,120 we published the first edition with 1754 01:11:44,070 --> 01:11:42,400 powell 1755 01:11:46,790 --> 01:11:44,080 and we found 1756 01:11:48,790 --> 01:11:46,800 this additional witness 1757 01:11:51,590 --> 01:11:48,800 told him we wanted to talk about that 1758 01:11:54,950 --> 01:11:51,600 time and what happened after that 1759 01:11:57,590 --> 01:11:54,960 he brings up pictures of the kids that 1760 01:11:59,750 --> 01:11:57,600 have died 1761 01:12:01,350 --> 01:11:59,760 that's what he wants us to see 1762 01:12:03,750 --> 01:12:01,360 you know he doesn't 1763 01:12:06,070 --> 01:12:03,760 you know yeah we can talk about 1764 01:12:08,950 --> 01:12:06,080 you know the materials and so on 1765 01:12:11,990 --> 01:12:08,960 can talk about the case but 1766 01:12:14,470 --> 01:12:12,000 what that family remembers is you know 1767 01:12:16,550 --> 01:12:14,480 the daughter who died at 18 from 1768 01:12:17,750 --> 01:12:16,560 radiation poisoning 1769 01:12:33,590 --> 01:12:17,760 the 1770 01:12:36,470 --> 01:12:33,600 know it collects 1771 01:12:38,550 --> 01:12:36,480 rain water well it connected rain water 1772 01:12:40,950 --> 01:12:38,560 with plutonium 1773 01:12:43,669 --> 01:12:40,960 and they kept on drinking 1774 01:12:45,030 --> 01:12:43,679 that you know the first bomb 1775 01:12:46,310 --> 01:12:45,040 wasn't 1776 01:12:48,229 --> 01:12:46,320 very good 1777 01:12:50,070 --> 01:12:48,239 you know i mean it didn't consume all 1778 01:12:52,229 --> 01:12:50,080 the plutonium 1779 01:12:53,990 --> 01:12:52,239 now that's not something i learned in 1780 01:12:55,669 --> 01:12:54,000 school that's not something in their 1781 01:12:57,990 --> 01:12:55,679 history books 1782 01:12:59,590 --> 01:12:58,000 you you know you you go to new mexico 1783 01:13:02,390 --> 01:12:59,600 you talk to people and you're going to 1784 01:13:05,350 --> 01:13:02,400 learn a lot of things about that bomb 1785 01:13:08,630 --> 01:13:05,360 for one thing it wasn't a test 1786 01:13:12,149 --> 01:13:08,640 there is no way to test an atom 1787 01:13:14,390 --> 01:13:12,159 you know a test in physics is you take a 1788 01:13:16,550 --> 01:13:14,400 a little crucible and you put something 1789 01:13:18,950 --> 01:13:16,560 in it and you drop some chemical and 1790 01:13:21,669 --> 01:13:18,960 then you observe the reaction and if the 1791 01:13:24,550 --> 01:13:21,679 reaction is what you think you can take 1792 01:13:26,790 --> 01:13:24,560 a patent on the process and then you you 1793 01:13:28,870 --> 01:13:26,800 will sell it to an industrial firm that 1794 01:13:31,430 --> 01:13:28,880 will do it in you know in big quality 1795 01:13:33,830 --> 01:13:31,440 days so on that's what the test the 1796 01:13:35,590 --> 01:13:33,840 physics test is from okay it's an 1797 01:13:39,750 --> 01:13:35,600 experiment 1798 01:13:41,990 --> 01:13:39,760 either it works so it doesn't 1799 01:13:44,229 --> 01:13:42,000 you know the atom bomb that trinity was 1800 01:13:47,189 --> 01:13:44,239 fault times with power that they had 1801 01:13:50,470 --> 01:13:47,199 computed enrico fermi was there at the 1802 01:13:53,350 --> 01:13:50,480 site watching the explosion taking notes 1803 01:13:55,990 --> 01:13:53,360 and he quickly computed the total power 1804 01:13:57,750 --> 01:13:56,000 um you know i mean he was nobel prize in 1805 01:14:00,470 --> 01:13:57,760 physics 1806 01:14:03,669 --> 01:14:00,480 and the the power was four times what 1807 01:14:08,070 --> 01:14:05,590 they 1808 01:14:11,110 --> 01:14:08,080 realized that 1809 01:14:13,830 --> 01:14:11,120 some of the plutonium fell back on that 1810 01:14:16,390 --> 01:14:13,840 part of new mexico driven by the wind 1811 01:14:19,189 --> 01:14:16,400 over the places where these witnesses 1812 01:14:21,990 --> 01:14:19,199 lived with their families who had not 1813 01:14:23,750 --> 01:14:22,000 been evacuated 1814 01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:23,760 they were 1815 01:14:28,470 --> 01:14:25,840 you know there were strategic 1816 01:14:31,110 --> 01:14:28,480 excuses for that okay 1817 01:14:33,430 --> 01:14:31,120 but there was no strategic excuse once 1818 01:14:37,590 --> 01:14:33,440 bone was unveiled when the bomb had 1819 01:14:40,149 --> 01:14:37,600 blown up for not telling the people look 1820 01:14:42,950 --> 01:14:40,159 kill the cows don't sell them 1821 01:14:45,510 --> 01:14:42,960 don't put them on the market 1822 01:14:48,870 --> 01:14:45,520 you know we'll buy your cows 1823 01:14:51,590 --> 01:14:48,880 and you'll kill them and bury them 1824 01:14:53,510 --> 01:14:51,600 uh you know that they describe the cows 1825 01:14:56,390 --> 01:14:53,520 what happened to those animals you know 1826 01:14:58,950 --> 01:14:56,400 when they uh all that is in the in in 1827 01:15:02,390 --> 01:14:58,960 the book uh it's not just a book about 1828 01:15:04,630 --> 01:15:02,400 ufos it's a book about human history to 1829 01:15:06,950 --> 01:15:04,640 the credit of 1830 01:15:09,590 --> 01:15:06,960 you know of the army they never blew up 1831 01:15:11,590 --> 01:15:09,600 another atom bomb in new mexico 1832 01:15:13,830 --> 01:15:11,600 you know that everything was moved to 1833 01:15:17,189 --> 01:15:13,840 the nevada test site where there was 1834 01:15:19,350 --> 01:15:17,199 nobody and they could control you know a 1835 01:15:21,350 --> 01:15:19,360 very very large area 1836 01:15:23,110 --> 01:15:21,360 but the 1837 01:15:25,830 --> 01:15:23,120 um 1838 01:15:29,350 --> 01:15:28,390 the other thing was the fact that 1839 01:15:32,950 --> 01:15:29,360 um 1840 01:15:33,990 --> 01:15:32,960 the kids uh grew up in that environment 1841 01:15:35,830 --> 01:15:34,000 and 1842 01:15:38,870 --> 01:15:35,840 you know the kids died when they were 1843 01:15:40,870 --> 01:15:38,880 teenagers and their families were 1844 01:15:42,630 --> 01:15:40,880 lost all their kids 1845 01:15:45,189 --> 01:15:42,640 and the people who survived couldn't 1846 01:15:47,510 --> 01:15:45,199 have kids of their own 1847 01:15:52,709 --> 01:15:49,669 you know that that whole part of the 1848 01:15:55,030 --> 01:15:52,719 history isn't told anywhere 1849 01:15:59,910 --> 01:15:55,040 what happened in japan 1850 01:16:02,870 --> 01:15:59,920 i found in recent history books 1851 01:16:03,910 --> 01:16:02,880 written from a japanese perspective 1852 01:16:08,070 --> 01:16:03,920 that 1853 01:16:09,990 --> 01:16:08,080 just changed the history completely now 1854 01:16:13,270 --> 01:16:10,000 the archives were 1855 01:16:15,270 --> 01:16:13,280 under wraps for 50 years not because of 1856 01:16:17,110 --> 01:16:15,280 secret necessarily 1857 01:16:20,390 --> 01:16:17,120 but because the archives were scattered 1858 01:16:22,390 --> 01:16:20,400 everywhere and it took time for you know 1859 01:16:24,470 --> 01:16:22,400 the documentation to be 1860 01:16:26,870 --> 01:16:24,480 put together in one place 1861 01:16:28,950 --> 01:16:26,880 or in just a few places where historians 1862 01:16:31,750 --> 01:16:28,960 could have access to it and could start 1863 01:16:34,630 --> 01:16:31,760 doing their research so 1864 01:16:37,189 --> 01:16:34,640 50 years after trinity there were books 1865 01:16:38,790 --> 01:16:37,199 that started coming out based on the 1866 01:16:41,669 --> 01:16:38,800 real archives 1867 01:16:44,550 --> 01:16:41,679 and now we can know the real history the 1868 01:16:47,430 --> 01:16:44,560 real history is not what i learned in 1869 01:16:50,550 --> 01:16:47,440 physics and it's not what i learned in 1870 01:16:52,470 --> 01:16:51,350 the 1871 01:16:55,910 --> 01:16:52,480 american 1872 01:16:58,550 --> 01:16:55,920 didn't want to use vietnam in japan 1873 01:17:00,229 --> 01:16:58,560 eisenhower generalizing our 1874 01:17:02,390 --> 01:17:00,239 general marshall 1875 01:17:03,510 --> 01:17:02,400 went to the white house to talk to harry 1876 01:17:05,990 --> 01:17:03,520 truman 1877 01:17:08,790 --> 01:17:06,000 telling him that

01:17:31,430 --> 01:17:28,840 we know germany is 1887 01:17:33,350 --> 01:17:31,440 close that those secrets are going to 1888 01:17:35,750 --> 01:17:33,360 come out other countries will have the 1889 01:17:37,430 --> 01:17:35,760 bomb in a few years the same moment we 1890 01:17:41,110 --> 01:17:37,440 do 1891 01:17:45,990 --> 01:17:41,120 and and then you know we'll lose control 1892 01:17:47,430

1896 01:17:59,910 --> 01:17:53,360 the 1897 01:18:03,110 --> 01:17:59,920 pentagon 1898 01:18:09,510 --> 01:18:07,510 500 000 purple hull decorations 1899 01:18:13,990 --> 01:18:09,520 the purple

expected to lose 1903 01:18:25,510 --> 01:18:24,000 in the offensive against japan at the 1904 01:18:28,550 --> 01:18:25,520 end of world war ii 1905 01:18:30,390 --> 01:18:28,560 if they didn't choose football 1906 01:18:32,709 --> 01:18:30,400 harry truman 1907 01:18:36,470 --> 01:18:32,719 you know a 1908 01:18:38,390 --> 01:18:36,480 small-scale businessman from kansas 1909 01:18:39,750 --> 01:18:38,400 a good politician but 1910 01:18:42,229 --> 01:18:39,760 you know he was essentially a 1911 01:18:45,590 --> 01:18:42,239 businessman from kansas 1912 01:18:48,870 --> 01:18:45,600 but alone made the decision to use 1913 01:18:51,990 --> 01:18:48,880 he said i cannot sacrifice 1914 01:18:56,709 --> 01:18:52,000 you know half a million american kids 1915 01:19:03,110 --> 01:18:58,870 but he did that over 1916 01:19:05,189 --> 01:19:03,120 the request of the american army 1917 01:19:06,070 --> 01:19:05,199 now you're not going to find that then 1918 01:19:08,390 --> 01:19:06,080 people 1919 01:19:10,390 --> 01:19:08,400 in france wouldn't believe that you know 1920 01:19:11,990 --> 01:19:10,400 they believe the americans were a bunch 1921 01:19:14,229 --> 01:19:12,000 of cowboys who 1922 01:19:16,470 --> 01:19:14,239 wanted to use a bomb everywhere but 1923 01:19:19,189 --> 01:19:16,480 that's not true 1924 01:19:22,630 --> 01:19:19,199 the the bomb at trinity 1925 01:19:26,070 --> 01:19:22,640 made a lot of damage because it was they 1926 01:19:27,510 --> 01:19:26,080 realized it was blown up at ground level 1927 01:19:29,750 --> 01:19:27,520 you know you have the pictures of that 1928 01:19:31,750 --> 01:19:29,760 tower that i put in the book okay 1929 01:19:34,310 --> 01:19:31,760 there's a tower that's about 20 feet 1930 01:19:36,390 --> 01:19:34,320 high and there's a bomb on top and the 1931 01:19:38,470 --> 01:19:36,400 bomb blew up and i've i've gone there 1932 01:19:40,390 --> 01:19:38,480 i've gone to the trinity side 1933 01:19:41,189 --> 01:19:40,400 with with power 1934 01:19:48,550 --> 01:19:41,199 the 1935 01:19:51,110 --> 01:19:48,560 still see in new mexico you know i mean 1936 01:19:53,030 --> 01:19:51,120 the stunted growth of the uh of the 1937 01:19:55,510 --> 01:19:53,040 vegetation and so it's still there i 1938 01:19:58,630 --> 01:19:55,520 mean there there are no big there is no 1939 01:20:01,110 --> 01:19:58,640 big cactus in in that area within miles 1940 01:20:02,149 --> 01:20:01,120 and miles of the trinity side 1941 01:20:05,270 --> 01:20:02,159 so 1942 01:20:07,110 --> 01:20:05,280 that that bomb did a lot of damage that 1943 01:20:08,709 --> 01:20:07,120 you didn't need 1944 01:20:10,790 --> 01:20:08,719 in war 1945 01:20:12,630 --> 01:20:10,800 you don't need the radioactivity i mean 1946 01:20:15,350 --> 01:20:12,640 the radioactivity is going to kill a lot 1947 01:20:17,590 --> 01:20:15,360 of people but basically what you want is 1948 01:20:19,110 --> 01:20:17,600 the heat and the 1949 01:20:21,110 --> 01:20:19,120 force of the will 1950 01:20:24,229 --> 01:20:21,120 is going to destroy 1951 01:20:27,110 --> 01:20:24,239 any structure okay that's the purpose 1952 01:20:29,270 --> 01:20:27,120 the purpose isn't necessarily to 1953 01:20:31,189 --> 01:20:29,280 you know expose people to atomic 1954 01:20:33,750 --> 01:20:31,199 radiation 1955 01:20:35,430 --> 01:20:33,760 which is something i hadn't 1956 01:20:37,510 --> 01:20:35,440 you know i knew 1957 01:20:39,750 --> 01:20:37,520 but i really hadn't 1958 01:20:42,870 --> 01:20:39,760 felt deeply about it 1959 01:20:45,510 --> 01:20:42,880 the bomb that they dropped on hiroshima 1960 01:20:49,030 --> 01:20:45,520 had been readjusted 1961 01:20:52,550 --> 01:20:49,040 to blow up 2 000 feet high 1962 01:20:55,270 --> 01:20:52,560 to minimize the radioactivity 1963 01:20:56,870 --> 01:20:55,280 at hero ship i don't think the japanese 1964 01:20:58,390 --> 01:20:56,880 know that 1965 01:21:01,270 --> 01:20:58,400 the same thing 1966 01:21:02,870 --> 01:21:01,280 you know uh at nagasaki 1967 01:21:05,830 --> 01:21:02,880 what they wanted was a physical 1968 01:21:07,590 --> 01:21:05,840 destruction of the town and all the 1969 01:21:09,830 --> 01:21:07,600 military structures 1970 01:21:12,390 --> 01:21:09,840 you know especially at nagasaki 1971 01:21:15,030 --> 01:21:12,400 hiroshima wasn't much of a 1972 01:21:17,189 --> 01:21:15,040 military site but they had a choice of 1973 01:21:19,350 --> 01:21:17,199 about a dozen targets 1974 01:21:21,030 --> 01:21:19,360 and they made the decision 1975 01:21:23,669 --> 01:21:21,040 actually when the bombers were already 1976 01:21:26,870 --> 01:21:25,590 based on the weather 1977 01:21:28,870 --> 01:21:26,880 because they wanted to be able to 1978 01:21:31,189 --> 01:21:28,880 document the effect 1979 01:21:32,149 --> 01:21:31,199 so they wanted a clear sky over the 1980 01:21:39,430 --> 01:21:32,159 target 1981 01:21:42,070 --> 01:21:39,440 because the weather was clear over here 1982 01:21:45,030 --> 01:21:42,080 you know that's those are the 1983 01:21:45,830 --> 01:21:45,040 you know i learned as many things that 1984 01:21:49,669 --> 01:21:45,840 have 1985 01:21:51,270 --> 01:21:49,679 impacted me impacted my you know my life 1986 01:21:55,110 --> 01:21:51,280 at this stage 1987 01:21:56,790 -->

have to open up the 2290 01:34:25,510 --> 01:34:22,239 cases some 2291 01:34:28,229 --> 01:34:25,520 cases and some projects are legitimately 2292 01:34:30,470 --> 01:34:28,239 classified you know the database we 2293 01:34:32,470 --> 01:34:30,480 developed you know 2294 01:34:36,070 --> 01:34:32,480 under the bas project on the atic 2295 01:34:38,550 --> 01:34:36,080 project is still classified 2296 01:34:40,870 --> 01:34:38,560 i i think the database contains a lot of 2297 01:34:43,750 --> 01:34:40,880 information about medical details of 2298 01:34:46,390 --> 01:34:43,760 witnesses of families and so on that 2299 01:34:48,870 --> 01:34:46,400 should be protected so i have no problem 2300 01:34:51,030 --> 01:34:48,880 with the fact that that the database is 2301 01:34:52,790 --> 01:34:51,040 is is classified 2302 01:34:55,350 --> 01:34:52,800 there are things that 2303 01:34:57,990 --> 01:34:55,360 you know but we don't need that there is 2304 01:35:00,229 --> 01:34:58,000 so much other information that in many 2305 01:35:01,590 --> 01:35:00,239 cases is better than what the pentagon 2306 01:35:03,350 --> 01:35:01,600 has 2307 01:35:04,950 --> 01:35:03,360 so i think we should 2308 01:35:07,189 --> 01:35:04,960 enlist the 2309 01:35:10,070 --> 01:35:07,199 you know the power of science and go 2310 01:35:11,750 --> 01:35:10,080 forward with the data we 2311 01:35:13,110 --> 01:35:11,760 i love that i love that i couldn't think 2312 01:35:14,950 --> 01:35:13,120 of a better way 2313 01:35:17,430 --> 01:35:14,960 to end things shock i have to thank you 2314 01:35:19,510 --> 01:35:17,440 for your time for the invaluable work 2315 01:35:21,669 --> 01:35:19,520 you've contributed to this topic for so 2316 01:35:23,189 --> 01:35:21,679 long and uh i know it's only the 2317 01:35:25,430 --> 01:35:23,199 beginning i i feel like we're on the 2318 01:35:27,590 --> 01:35:25,440 precipice of of something big when it 2319 01:35:29,669 --> 01:35:27,600
