1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:20,660 It's been more than 70 years since the so-called Roswell incident, an incident which allegedly 2 00:00:20,660 --> 00:00:26,040 involved the mysterious crashes in the desert of New Mexico of three-man extraterrestrial 3 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:31,040 craft close to a U.S. nuclear weapons facility. 4 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:38,680 Initially, the U.S. military appeared to confirm the reports, but then, just as rapidly, 5 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,180 denied them. 6 00:00:40,180 --> 00:00:45,760 Later that same year saw the formation of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. 7 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:51,000 Within it, according to documents that have now come to light, was a top-secret UFO monitoring 8 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,560 group codenamed Majestine or MJ-12. 9 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:04,120 And one of the main reasons for the creation of the CIA was not just to conduct intelligence, 10 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,560 but to do a lot of COVID operations. 11 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:12,280 And the COVID operations were necessary to find out whether there were other Roswells 12 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,120 in other countries. 13 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:21,200 And forward 70 years, and to worldwide astonishment, a private company to the Starers Academy of 14 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:26,920 Arts and Science releases footage taken by U.S. pilots, which appears to show a UFO caught 15 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,160 on camera for the very first time. 16 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:36,120 The Department of Defense has since authorized the release of these unclassified videos. 17 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:41,040 I think what's happening right now is a form of confirmation. 18 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,200 People getting little bits and pieces of information from different sources, and they're 19 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:50,560 basically letting us know that something really is going on, that it is worth investigating, 20 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:56,440 that it is being pursued behind the scenes by our government, by our military, and that 21 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,320 it's serious. 22 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,000 The question is, why has it taken so long for the U.S. government to acknowledge the 23 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,440 existence of unidentified flying objects? 24 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:14,080 And other secrets about possible visitations by extraterrestrial lifeforms has the U.S. 25 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,960 government, with the help of MJ-12, been keeping from the public. 26 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:54,480 Our secret UFO projects, keep to the light. 27 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,480 The White House cover-up. 28 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,840 According to newly discovered documents, the U.S. government's strategy concerning 29 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,280 UFOs started to take shape in the early post-war years. 30 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:15,400 Deep in the heart of the newly formed CIA was a special committee known as MJ-12, responsible 31 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,280 for monitoring any and all UFO activity. 32 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:25,160 U.S. nuclear physicist Stanton T. Freedman devoted more than a decade to investigating 33 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:30,920 the mysteries surrounding the existence of MJ-12. 34 00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:38,000 In his book Top Secret, Magic, he concludes, I am convinced that the documents, when carefully 35 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:44,760 and objectively examined, lead to the conclusion that there indeed was an Operation Majestic 36 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,400 12. 37 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:53,440 It makes the most perfect sense that you would need an organization like MJ-12 to manage this. 38 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,440 You would have to. 39 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,600 You can't just leave it in the hands of the United States President. 40 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:58,600 That would be ridiculous. 41 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,160 That would be dangerous. 42 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,360 So who were the members of MJ-12? 43 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:11,480 Unquestionably, they had to be an elite group of individuals. 44 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:17,520 The members of MJ-12 were said to be from the military and from private industry and 45 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,520 the world of science and so forth. 46 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,040 Well, MJ-12 was an ongoing project. 47 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,080 It still exists behind the scenes. 48 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,320 There were more than 12 individuals, now it has expanded. 49 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,480 MJ-13, 14, etc. 50 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,320 And the minds behind this still exist on high levels. 51 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,840 There were of extraterrestrial specimens. 52 00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:41,000 And they're also aware that there are other needs to update the worldwide community in 53 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,960 terms of the actual factual basis of contact. 54 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:52,360 The Roswell incident of July 7th, 1947 appeared to have been the catalyst for the formation 55 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,120 of MJ-12. 56 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,960 Although it was nearly 40 years before any evidence of its existence came to light, and 57 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,880 even then it was revealed in a particularly strange manner. 58 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:14,680 December 1984, Burbank, Los Angeles, the house of TV producer Jamie Chanderra. 59 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:23,960 TV producer and UFO researcher Jamie Chanderra discovered a package with no return address 60 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,800 in his mailbox. 61 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,520 It contained only an undeveloped black and white 35mm film. 62 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:36,640 Upon further examination, this appeared to be a microfish containing copies of classified 63 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:41,520 government documents relating to the existence of MJ-12. 64 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:47,080 At that time, Chanderra was collaborating with Stanton Freeman and Bill Moore on a potential 65 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,120 documentary project about the Roswell incident. 66 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,840 He immediately contacted them to share this remarkable find. 67 00:05:54,840 --> 00:06:03,000 MJ-12 documents were leaked in the 1980s and in fact in later years, more documents which 68 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,880 are called the majestic documents were leaked as well. 69 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:06,880 And there's a lot of them. 70 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,560 They're like this thick. 71 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:16,720 These documents, I become persuaded that they're talking about something real. 72 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,840 Among the documents that made the greatest impression on him was a memorandum of September 73 00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:29,400 24, 1947 to Secretary of Defense James V. Forrestal confirming the existence of MJ-12 74 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,680 from none other than the President of the United States, Harrius Truman. 75 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:39,760 Yes, the Truman memorandum is very important, particularly his signature, which was examined 76 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,760 by my colleagues. 77 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:46,440 This is consistent with other government papers that show on the highest levels. 78 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:53,280 Britain's foremost authority on governmental actions on UFOs, Nick Pope, believes that 79 00:06:53,280 --> 00:07:02,400 the intergovernment talks about the existence of UFOs may have even predated Truman. 80 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,080 My experience is working for the British government, the Ministry of Defense. 81 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:13,880 We did have one interesting document that did suggest that there had been a conversation 82 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:24,880 between Winston Churchill and Eisenhower during the Second World War to say, apparently, that 83 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:31,880 this was real and that we had better not make it public because this would be too much for 84 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:40,960 people to process in time of war and it would fundamentally challenge people's religious 85 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,360 beliefs and perhaps destroy the church. 86 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:52,920 The document is a testimonial from somebody who was a scientist whose grandfather was one 87 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:58,160 of Winston Churchill's bodyguards and apparently he was present at that meeting. 88 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:08,160 In 2014, 20 years after the anonymous package landed in Jamie Chander's mailbox, more documents 89 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:14,560 concerning the activities of MJ-12 are once again sent anonymously, this time to Dr. 90 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,280 Stephen Greer. 91 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:23,560 Greer has been a celebrity on the UFO scene since 2001 when he held a famous press conference 92 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:28,600 in Washington, D.C. in which a number of former military and intelligence officers 93 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:35,760 gave evidence about their experience of UFO phenomena. 94 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:42,040 He was doing something that was very important and provided a great service to the UFO community 95 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:47,440 to put all this information, names of all these witnesses in the public domain all in 96 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:48,720 the same place. 97 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:56,200 We are here today to disclose the truth about a subject that has been ridiculed and questioned, 98 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,200 denied for at least 50 years. 99 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:09,000 The men and women who are on this stage and the some 350 additional military intelligence 100 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:18,120 witnesses to the so-called UFO matter and extraterrestrial intelligence can prove and will prove that 101 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,000 we are not alone. 102 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:27,360 In 2014, without warning, Greer, like Jamie Chander received documents from an anonymous 103 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:35,640 source referring to Project Aquarius, the U.S. government's top secret UFO monitoring initiative. 104 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:41,160 Instigated by the Eisenhower administration in 1953, the objective of Project Aquarius 105 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:52,040 was to glean the maximum scientific and technological information from any alien spacecraft. 106 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:58,360 Project Aquarius and MJ-12 are both contentious subjects. 107 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:04,680 They came about through leaked documents that people have argued about to this day. 108 00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:10,520 So depending on who you talk to, those are legitimate or not legitimate. 109 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:15,000 While the authenticity of this document was questioned, it is astounding in the details 110 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,040 it revealed about contact with alien life forms around the time of the Roswell incident 111 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,560 and afterwards. 112 00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:27,320 In particular, it reported the existence of an extraterrestrial being or EB, which allegedly 113 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:33,880 survived the Roswell crash and was taken to a military facility. 114 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,040 1966, New Mexico, USA. 115 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:46,600 Eye witness account reported to Project Aquarius. 116 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:52,520 Beings from a civilization based 38,100 light-years distant from our planet were observing our 117 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,480 nuclear advancement with concern. 118 00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:00,200 Could one of them survive the mysterious crashes of interstellar craft? 119 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,600 They called him EB. 120 00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:06,040 A extraterrestrial biological entity. 121 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:12,600 The alien was thoroughly questioned by military intelligence at a base in New Mexico. 122 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,240 How did they communicate? 123 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:24,680 Telepathically and later vocally, with the language being translated with the aid of 124 00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:26,440 pictographs. 125 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:32,280 It was determined that EB came from a planet in the Zeta reticuli star system. 126 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:42,080 EB survived until June 18, 1952 when he died of an unknown disease. 127 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,720 To this day, the US government has not officially commented on this case. 128 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:52,200 It is not confirmed whether the US armed forces had, according to previous reports, shot down 129 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,960 a spacecraft in 1947 with an alien being on board. 130 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,520 I think for sure they definitely, the MJ-12 existed. 131 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:19,000 How powerfully, I don't know today if it is the same kind of strength or power. 132 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:26,600 I think it's kind of transitioned into different types of organizations and different types of 133 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,280 associations. 134 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:36,840 Throughout the history of UFO investigation, the US government's strategy of denial has run into 135 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:42,760 several major obstacles, two of which are it cannot control events outside of military bases. 136 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,920 It has also failed to destroy the credibility of compelling and consistent alien abduction 137 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,120 testimony. 138 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,440 One of the most well-known and documented of these is the case of Travis Walton. 139 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:09,080 November 1975, Apache sick Reeves National Forest, Arizona, USA. 140 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:19,960 The best known and probably best documented abduction in the history of the UFO phenomenon 141 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,320 takes place in November of 1975. 142 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,360 The attention of some forestry workers is drawn to an unidentified craft. 143 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,040 One of these workers, Travis Walton, approaches it. 144 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:40,440 It has a smooth, shiny surface that reflects the surrounding trees. 145 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,120 Travis hears complex vibrations emerging from it. 146 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,560 His friends call out a warning to him to come back to their vehicle. 147 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,960 Too late, Travis rises through the air and with the craft vanishes. 148 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,040 He is missing for five days. 149 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:07,080 No one believes his friends account of the incident and they are suspected of murdering 150 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:07,720 him. 151 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:15,240 When he finally turns up five days later, he claims to have been taken on board an alien 152 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,960 spacecraft and placed on a peculiar chair with many signal lights. 153 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:29,160 When he sits on it, the walls disappear and he finds himself in the void of the building. 154 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,320 He is in the void of the building. 155 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:38,520 When he sits on it, the walls disappear and he finds himself in the void of space. 156 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,040 And that's not all. 157 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,800 Blue-suited humanoid creatures with transparent helmets take him through a giant hanger to 158 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,000 another room where three more creatures await. 159 00:14:55,240 --> 00:15:00,840 I screamed at them and yelled all sorts of things but I never got any direct response 160 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,400 from them. 161 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:07,320 I think just the entire circumstances of what was done with me and to me 162 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,320 sort of sends a message about their real intentions. 163 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:21,240 It took me years to realize that they weren't just collecting humans in order to dissect them 164 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,520 or some horrible things, maybe eat them or some crazy thing. 165 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:39,080 They were most likely intervening in what happened to me to correct a severe extreme 166 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:44,680 damage that was caused by a burst of energy that was probably accidental. 167 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:52,680 Travis walked up to a vehicle and got too close to its electromagnetic field 168 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:59,800 and it probably stopped his nervous system and they took him to help him actually and resuscitate 169 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:05,640 him not to you know take any body parts from him or anything like that. 170 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,200 I do not believe the aliens are bad. 171 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:19,480 I believe that extremely advanced technologies, civilizations, evolve out of what we call evil. 172 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:27,800 What would a governmental agency like MJ-12 do when confronted by such a highly publicized case 173 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,960 as the abduction of Travis Walton? 174 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:38,440 The strategy was clear to ignore, intimidate and at the same time gather as much information as possible. 175 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:53,480 The FBI, the intelligence agencies did not want to appear to be taking such a thing seriously. 176 00:16:54,040 --> 00:17:00,600 So if they came to me and tried to interview me or interrogate me it would make it look 177 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,640 to anybody from the outside. 178 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:09,800 They were totally accepting it and back in those days that is not the case. 179 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,640 They wanted people to stop believing in such things. 180 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:25,160 The U.S. government denies the existence of UFOs so if UFOs don't exist how are these people being 181 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,400 abducted? They're not admitting anything right now they know what's going on. 182 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:37,080 It's best in my case for me to just focus on dealing with the facts of my case and 183 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:45,400 attempts to discredit things and expose the people who are making such accusations and 184 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:50,920 show that they're the ones who really need to improve their thinking ability. 185 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:56,600 You know their rationality. 186 00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:05,800 Two years after the incident and even more damning evidence of the U.S. government's attempts to smear 187 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:12,200 Walton and discredit those who claim the existence of UFOs comes the incredible story of Terry 188 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,320 Lovelace a lawyer and former assistant attorney. 189 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:25,560 In June 1977 Terry Lovelace a medic at Weyman Air Force Base who will later become a lawyer 190 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,960 has a life-changing experience at Devil's Den State Park in Arkansas. 191 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:39,400 His story begins with a weekend hiking trip with a friend a trip that turns into a nightmare 192 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,640 about which he keeps silent for decades. 193 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:50,120 During the night a giant triangular vessel appears in the sky the young men are 194 00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:54,040 astonished at the sight of an object of this size hovering above their heads. 195 00:18:54,680 --> 00:19:00,680 Terry falls into a drowsy stupor when he awakes. Another shock awaits him. 196 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,440 I got to my knees and I noticed that I was in a lot of pain. 197 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,200 Joint pain every joint my body hurt. 198 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:19,800 And out in this metal this craft that had been 3000 feet above us the night before 199 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:26,920 has now descended and is only about 30 feet above our heads and it's enormous and had we 200 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,600 camped where I wanted to camp we'd have been directly underneath this thing. 201 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:39,480 There were what I first took to be children maybe a dozen maybe 15 and they're in pairs 202 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,360 and threes and they're walking around this metal. 203 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:53,000 And I'm like Toby man what the hell are these little kids doing out here in the middle of this forest. 204 00:19:56,120 --> 00:20:03,080 And he said Terry man those ain't no little kids don't you remember they took us and they heard us. 205 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:13,880 And then I had flashes of memory and he was right they did take us and they did hurt us. 206 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:21,320 And I'm looking again and I could see that these were not human beings. 207 00:20:22,120 --> 00:20:25,960 I don't think they intended to kill us I don't think they they were not benevolent 208 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:32,040 but I don't think they were malevolent either. I recall I was on their exam table 209 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:37,160 and I'm screaming and I'm filling my lungs with air and I'm screaming as loud as I can 210 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,600 but I can't hear anything coming out and I heard telepathically in my head why are you screaming 211 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,760 stop screaming you know we don't hurt you you know we take you back stop screaming. 212 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:56,520 But after years of reflection I think that if I could sit down with one of these creatures 213 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:02,760 I think that they would tell me you know hey no hard feelings we're just doing our job man you know 214 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:09,480 I think they are examining us like we examine animals on the Serengeti. 215 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:16,920 During Terry's hospitalization in 1977 he received some unexpected visitors. 216 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:27,960 And my night nurse came in and two guys in blue business suits and they pulled up badges and 217 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:35,320 credentials and identified themselves as OSI United States Air Force Office of Special Investigations 218 00:21:36,360 --> 00:21:45,080 and they shut my door and the odor agent turned on the overhead lights and I felt like somebody 219 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,760 punched me in the face and I'm like sir could you please turn those off. 220 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:56,200 And he says can't work in the dark son and I asked him I said sir am I in trouble 221 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,560 and he looked amused and he looked over at the captain and the captain kind of went 222 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,400 and he said to me would we be here if you weren't in trouble son. 223 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:16,200 Over 30 years later the story of Terry Lovelace took a further sinister turn. 224 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:24,120 In 2012 a routine x-ray of his leg reveals an embedded piece of metal the size of a fingernail 225 00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:30,520 with tiny wires sticking out of it. The discovery brings his memories of that night flooding back. 226 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:35,480 Could it be that he had been under surveillance by extraterrestrials for all those years? 227 00:22:36,120 --> 00:22:40,120 It is not until 2016 that he speaks openly about it. 228 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:52,280 You don't need a medical degree to see this. Above my knee is what looks like a computer chip 229 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:59,080 with two tiny wires headed up toward my head. I don't know how far up the wires go. 230 00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:07,240 They took a total of 24 films. I was only able to get my hands on about six. 231 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,080 The rest they claim were destroyed but I don't believe that. 232 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:21,000 The doctor also said there's something else you should see and he popped the another film upon 233 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:27,240 the light box and this was a view of my leg from the side and it showed in my calf muscle 234 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:32,520 a collection of objects about the size of tic-tacs arranged in a floral pattern. 235 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,240 I asked my doctor how can this thing be in my leg without there being a scar 236 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,160 and she said it has to be by means not known to medical science. 237 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:51,400 But when a UFO encounter is witnessed not just by one or two civilians but by hundreds if not 238 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:57,080 thousands the US authorities have their work cut out to keep the incident under wraps. 239 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:04,920 Phoenix Arizona March 1997 an electrical storm appears to short-circuit the city's electrical 240 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:10,520 grid as darkness descends unexplained bright lights appear in the night sky. 241 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:30,840 I got four of them. 242 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,600 Major sighting here. 243 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,600 That's no there's five. 244 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:35,400 What? 245 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:36,520 Another one just showed up. 246 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,800 Whoa I can't see how this works. 247 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:40,520 How does this work? 248 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,520 Whoa. 249 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:47,080 The first report of the movement of the giant body in the sky came at about 250 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,640 six fifty-five in the evening from Henderson, Nevada. 251 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:55,320 The dark V-shaped object with five bright lights moves slowly towards the southeast. 252 00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:01,960 Other reports followed, cumulating at half past ten when a series of bright lights were seen 253 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:09,160 hanging above the western Phoenix skyline before gradually submerging behind the Sierra Estrella 254 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,160 Mountains. 255 00:25:18,360 --> 00:25:24,440 What they were reporting are these large black triangles that are able to hover and then also 256 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,240 travel at very fast speeds. 257 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:32,040 That's something that's a sort of technology that we do not have or at least if we do the 258 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:38,120 public is certainly not aware of it and for this to be happening in the 90s would be even more 259 00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:40,120 extraordinary. 260 00:25:40,120 --> 00:25:44,200 So that it was time to end months of speculation on the question and investigate the matter once 261 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,720 and for all to clear it up. 262 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:51,400 Attempting to diffuse public alarm Arizona Governor John Fife Simington holds a press 263 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:57,240 conference at which he jokingly presents a member of his staff dressed in an alien costume. 264 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:06,520 However, in 2007, after leaving office, Simington confesses that this was just a way to appease 265 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:14,040 public concern and that he remains convinced to this day that something extraterrestrial visited Arizona that night. 266 00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:23,800 I think it was a very, you know, I think it was a legitimate occurrence of unknown origin 267 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:32,760 craft of some sort and who knows where it came from inexplicable and probably one of the major 268 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,840 sightings and, you know, in modern history in the country because a lot of people saw it in 269 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,280 our county and I saw it too. 270 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,840 So I see I used to work when I was first in the Air Force. 271 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:46,760 I worked at Luke in the sage center there in NORAD and so something like that would go up the 272 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,680 chain of command immediately to NORAD in Colorado and go to the Pentagon. 273 00:26:54,680 --> 00:27:06,840 The turn of the millennium brought new pressure for the U.S. government to come clean about reports 274 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,400 of alien visitations and abductions. 275 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:19,560 With the passage of time, the question repeatedly arises of whether and when we will see public 276 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:26,600 disclosure of the secret U.S. intelligence programs monitoring UFOs by a president of the United States. 277 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:33,560 How much in fact do the presidents themselves know about secret programs linked to UFOs? 278 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:43,560 They probably do tell some presidents more than others like Kennedy, Eisenhower, Truman, 279 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,040 but other presidents like Clinton, maybe Ford, what did they know, right? 280 00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:50,440 They never disclose any UFO information. 281 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,720 So it's clear they don't tell the president everything. 282 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:58,680 I can't make any definitive statements on who actually has control of this stuff, 283 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:05,240 but I can say that I have interviewed and researched extensively presidential efforts, 284 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,360 government efforts to access someone's material. 285 00:28:08,360 --> 00:28:12,760 Some pretty high-level people and they were unable to get access to it. 286 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:19,160 So it leaves me to believe that it has gone beyond out of the hands of elected officials 287 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,240 and into the private sector. 288 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,320 That seems to be the most probable likely scenario. 289 00:28:28,360 --> 00:28:32,440 The CIA has long been concerned about the risk of incumbent presidents 290 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,040 disclosing information and jeopardizing the secret programs. 291 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:42,040 This concern intensified as the U.S. military strengthened its links with private defense 292 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:48,440 contractors, leading to what President Eisenhower termed as the military industrial complex, 293 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,200 whose burgeoning influence he warned about as he departed the White House. 294 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:58,840 We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or 295 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,280 unsought, by the military industrial complex. 296 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,680 The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. 297 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:15,400 We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. 298 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,600 Eisenhower wasn't just a president, he had been a five-star general for goodness sake. 299 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,360 He was a military icon. 300 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:28,680 Eisenhower was only like able to leak us a little bit of a warning about the military industrial complex. 301 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:33,880 So he gave us a warning, but it like helps us to say, okay, we need to look into something. 302 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,200 You know, we look at the laws that were put in place by the NSA and the CIA. 303 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,960 It's like people were murdered for being whistleblowers. 304 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,520 So when Eisenhower warned us in his speech about the military industrial complex, 305 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,240 I think it's about as best as he could do at that time. 306 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:58,600 Is it conceivable that even a U.S. president could be denied access to the inner sanctum of secret programs? 307 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:09,080 Jimmy Carter, who had personal experience of a UFO sighting, wanted to be briefed about 308 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,040 extraterrestrial and UFO contacts. 309 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:16,280 But it is alleged that the then director of the Central Intelligence Agency, 310 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,880 and later himself a U.S. president, George Herbert Walker Bush, 311 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,840 resolved to keep Carter in the dark. 312 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:28,600 Since then, there have been several presidents who have alluded to the possibility of alien life. 313 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,600 This is not enough to make us feel like we're in a state of emergency. 314 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:40,680 To make us recognize this common bound, I occasionally think how quickly our differences 315 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:47,400 worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. 316 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,400 And yet, I ask you, is not an alien force already among us? 317 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,360 They're a temporary employee. They're only there for four years, eight max. 318 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,800 As soon as they're done with their term, they're out of there, and another president comes in. 319 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,400 So why would they tell Donald Trump all of our deepest secrets 320 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,480 when he could be out in a couple of months? 321 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,160 There's no way he's going to be read in on all of our nation's deepest secrets. 322 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,360 He's just a temporary employee. 323 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,560 As we look back to Roswell, with the benefit of hindsight, 324 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:22,200 and all that's happened since, what do we make of the rumors and allegations 325 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,720 which swirled around the most famous of all UFO incidents? 326 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,680 There's a whole fleet of them, look on the assay. 327 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:44,360 In 2017, the world learns that the Pentagon, despite its previous denials, 328 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,560 has continued to investigate UFOs for decades. 329 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,680 That's not an honest though, is it? 330 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,920 This disclosure, accompanied by the publication of video footage 331 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,000 shot by the US military, confirms what many have believed. 332 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,440 Maybe politically, the president can't say, 333 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,760 my fellow Americans, people of the world, we're not alone, 334 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:18,120 because the implication is the governments have known about this and lied for it for 70 years. 335 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:25,160 But maybe there's a way to just slip it out piece by piece. 336 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:34,440 Given the facts revealed by the Breakthrough 2017 New York Times article 337 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:39,720 about the Pentagon top secret UFO program, and three videos showing UFOs, 338 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:44,040 it can be justifiably assumed that government agencies 339 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:49,000 not only have their own top secret programs associated with this phenomenon, 340 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,360 but are also very sophisticatedly interconnected through a network of secret agreements 341 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:59,560 with private sector entities. The question is, who controls who? 342 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:05,240 Who has the decision-making powers? To put it simply, who's in charge? 343 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,320 It's the defense contractors, they're pulling the strings, 344 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,480 because they're the ones that get the money, the contracts. 345 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:17,000 So the deal is, is that we will pay you to do the research, 346 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:23,640 and in return, you can make it proprietary, and then you can cash in on the technology. 347 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,400 So that's the agreement that they make. 348 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,960 So we're in a world where really corporations run everything. 349 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:33,000 They control who gets elected, they determine how long the person stays in power, 350 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,400 they determine what policies are, they control the lobbies that pass laws of every country. 351 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:43,720 We have a world run by corporations, a world run by financial concerns, that's just how it is. 352 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,360 So the government says you can have all the money you want, and you can make it proprietary, 353 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:54,120 but we want to get the information, but you can cash in on it, so that's how they work this. 354 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,960 There have been several attempts to overturn the government's embargo on their records of UFO 355 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:05,560 phenomenon, the most famous of which occurred in Washington, D.C. 356 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:14,280 The conclusion I've come to is incredibly wild, that those in charge have been successful 357 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,400 in keeping secret the greatest story of mankind. 358 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:22,200 The evidence is overwhelming that Earth is being visited by intelligently controlled 359 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,120 extraterrestrial spacecraft. 360 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,440 The government has dumped disinformation and misinformation into the field for decades. 361 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:34,360 I have lost faith in the president of the government, and I truly think we're in gridlock, 362 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,000 it doesn't work, and so we need to make a change. 363 00:34:37,720 --> 00:34:42,040 Give this committee a lot of reasons for us to say open those vials. 364 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,680 Today, knowledge and information have a much higher price than oil. 365 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:54,520 The fundamental question that has always accompanied the history of UFO investigation 366 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,200 is once again raised. 367 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,600 The million dollar question is who has access to all this information? 368 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:06,440 Who has access to all the photographic evidence that has been gathered through military channels 369 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:07,400 for decades? 370 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:12,120 If you are of the camp that believes that a Roswell occurred, as it initially was stated, 371 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:16,120 as it occurred, they recovered something to otherworldly, where did this material go? 372 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,360 That's the million dollar question. 373 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:28,600 Any time you deal with some of these very significant folks in industry, in commerce, 374 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:35,880 in military hardware that have input into these national security agencies, 375 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,840 you're obviously going to have influence and movement in the direction that they want. 376 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,000 That may or may not be in the direction the public wants. 377 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:53,480 What people are hoping to learn, what they want disclosed, is not really located in the government. 378 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,040 It's located in the aerospace industry. 379 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,200 It's located in the private sector. 380 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,080 Corporations run the world, not governments. 381 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,080 Okay, money runs the world. 382 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,120 Money has control over this information. 383 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:12,920 The only person that I know who has come forward and 384 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:22,120 said that UFOs are real, that we're being visited by extraterrestrial visitors from 385 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:28,280 elsewhere is Robert Bigelow, who runs Bigelow Aerospace. 386 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:38,440 I'm not aware of other heads of business who have come forward and are releasing information to the public. 387 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:44,280 When questioned about his views on extraterrestrials on the TV show 60 Minutes, 388 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:49,240 Robert Bigelow replies that he is absolutely convinced of their existence. 389 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,240 As for their activities on earth, he states categorically, 390 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:58,680 there has been and is an existing presence, an E.G. presence. 391 00:36:59,240 --> 00:37:01,960 And I spent millions and millions and millions. 392 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,920 I probably spent more as an individual than anybody else in the United States has ever 393 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,520 spent on this subject. 394 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:16,680 Long time UFO hunter Daryl Sims recalls Bigelow visiting one of his UFO symposiums 395 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:21,240 and his particular interest in the possibility of alien implantations. 396 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:31,240 And so I've been doing that for quite a while now since the late 80s and did the first public 397 00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:36,440 two surgeries in 1995. And we found evidence that interested 398 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,480 Bob Bigelow and his crew in the aerospace industry. 399 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:46,520 And his 18 scientists voted to study my objects that would be removed. 400 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,720 And they sent them off to Los Alamos in the Mexico Tech. 401 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,120 Los Alamos determined that the metals were a rare meteorite. 402 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:55,880 Very rare. 403 00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:03,800 Following the disclosure in 2017 of the Pentagon secret program, 404 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,040 the advanced aerospace threat identification program known as ATIP, 405 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,640 a new player suddenly appears on the private sector scene 406 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,960 with some fascinating new evidence of Pentagon monitoring of UFO activity. 407 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:22,280 It comes from an organization known as To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science, 408 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,680 founded by rock star Tom DeLong from the group Blink 182. 409 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:32,360 And it appears to have some impeccable sources at the heart of the US government. 410 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,960 There is a skeptic faction in government and there is a believer faction in government. 411 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,400 The To the Stars Academy is almost like the believer faction. 412 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,680 They worked in government, they had ATIP. 413 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,480 Then they decided that they hit some problems. 414 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:58,600 Maybe in getting this information out or getting defense secretary to consider this. 415 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,440 And so they decided to go private. 416 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:06,120 So I see the To the Stars Academy as really a private sector, 417 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:14,120 consider a continuation of some of the work that was done in government, for example by ATIP. 418 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,160 You need something like the To the Stars Academy, 419 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:23,320 which is in itself a really interesting construct of, I mean, look at the people who work there. 420 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,560 When I saw the team, I was very impressed. 421 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,560 I said, this has never happened before. 422 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:33,000 No group like this has ever come together in service to our need to know 423 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,160 in the public domain, but with that kind of military intelligence background. 424 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:41,160 And they made their first public announcement in October 2017. 425 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:49,640 They made a very powerful statement, which was the U.S. military is continuing to 426 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:51,960 investigate these UFOs. 427 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,560 That was a very significant and new thing to hear at the time. 428 00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,440 MJ-12 apparently no longer exists in its original institutional form. 429 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:05,160 Over the decades, this elite guardian of secrets has not disappeared, 430 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:10,440 but instead developed and transformed into a public-private partnership. 431 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:16,360 The termination of the ATIP program indicates the strong influence of the private sector 432 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,600 in the exploration of UFO phenomenon. 433 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,160 And reports of UFO sightings continue to accumulate. 434 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:27,400 Both civilian and military pilots are coming forward with graphic details 435 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,320 that may eventually shed more light on the strictly guarded secret. 436 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,400 People are becoming less concerned and more curious. 437 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,640 Is the time approaching for the truth about UFOs? 438 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:46,120 I feel like what we need to focus on always is the content. 439 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,520 It's the information. That's what matters. 440 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,240 Secondarily, where it's coming from. 441 00:40:51,240 --> 00:40:54,840 But most important, you gotta pay attention to the information. 442 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,960 And if they're giving information we can use, we should listen. 443 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:04,760 Nevertheless, the government agencies are still extremely coy about releasing information 444 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,840 on their UFO monitoring programs. 445 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:12,840 For the fear of revealing state secrets about the extent of their global surveillance systems 446 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,080 and encouraging conspiracy theorists. 447 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:20,040 The vast majority of information is still being kept firmly under wraps. 448 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,120 And only occasionally in a very controlled manner 449 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,840 being allowed to leak out into the public domain. 450 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,400 As long as that approach continues, 451 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:36,520 our opportunities are hindered to truly learn if alien light forms could be out there, 452 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,200 waiting to make contact. 453 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,280 Where is it all being held is the real question. 454 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:52,280 So is there one person or one group that's got it all in MJ-12? 455 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,440 I don't have confirmation that that is the case, 456 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,640 but I think that's the best assumption we've got right now. 457 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:07,980 you
