1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 Hey Chris, I'm in Switzerland 127. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,000 He had a UFO or a rocket, something almost hit him in my airspace. 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:10,000 The military radio advises they are picking up his inter-missile primary target behind you in trail. 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:15,000 Since the earliest years of manned flight, pilots and astronauts from around the world 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,000 have encountered UFOs high in our skies and beyond. 6 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,000 This is Houston. Say again, Simon. 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,000 I'm here at 9 o'clock right now. 8 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Now, many of their dramatic cockpit preparations have been carried out. 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,000 The dramatic cockpit recordings, film clips and stories have been made available for the first time. 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,000 The UFO? It's that Roswell crap again. 11 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:44,000 UFO reports that we get from professional pilots are considered among the very best because of their knowledge of the sky. 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000 From never before released black box and control tower recordings from commercial airline flights. 13 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000 You still see traffic out there? 14 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,000 Hell yeah. 15 00:00:53,000 --> 00:01:01,000 For the FAA, UFOs are real. They've been punishing pilots and covering up UFO reports for over 50 years. 16 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:08,000 To never before seen astronaut reports and secret recordings in outer space, as recently as 2005. 17 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000 We have an unidentified flying object. 18 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:16,000 Many of NASA's top astronauts have already testified to seeing UFOs. 19 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:23,000 As astronauts and pilots around the world report an ever increasing level of unusual activity in our skies. 20 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000 Big bright way up the front, bring these tail. 21 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,000 I'd say what that is. 22 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,000 The military isn't a bit to anything flying tonight. 23 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,000 There was two paths to the anero plane. 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,000 Looks like it. 25 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,000 You have those. 26 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,000 Many wonder, do the skies belong to us or to them? 27 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:54,000 The report that was made last November 17th of a UFO spotted over Alaska attracted special attention. 28 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,000 This sighting was made by an airline pilot with 29 years of experience. 29 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:07,000 The crew claims that while it was flying over Alaska last November, it was followed for 400 miles by strange white, yellow and amber lights. 30 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:15,000 Of the thousands of reported pilot and astronaut encounters with UFOs around the world, few are more harrowing than the encounter on November 17th. 31 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:22,000 1986 by Japanese Airlines Flight 1628, high above the remote Alaskan tundra. 32 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:31,000 Regarding airline cases in America, the GL is very interesting because you have multiple witnesses. 33 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:37,000 It was a cargo aircraft and the pilots observed an object that seemed to be tracking along with their aircraft. 34 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,000 It involved an investigation by the FAA. 35 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,000 This is an official government investigation of the sighting itself. 36 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,000 The events of that night were captured on tape. 37 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Spinner 1628, every military radar advises they are picking up intermitten primary target behind you, in trail. 38 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000 In trail, I'll say here. 39 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:06,000 The Boeing 747 cargo jet is on a routine flight from Paris to Tokyo cruising at 600 miles per hour at an altitude of 35,000 feet. 40 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 It heads towards Anchorage, Alaska to refuel. 41 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:23,000 Suddenly, at 5.11 p.m., Captain Kenjyu Terauchi, a pilot with 29 years flight experience, sees three large, fast-moving, unidentified objects 2,000 feet below them. 42 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,000 The largest object is described by Captain Terauchi as resembling, quote, a shelled walnut. 43 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:36,000 Captain Terauchi describes the main craft as being twice the size of an American aircraft carrier. 44 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:44,000 Co-pilot said it was as solid there as if you were seeing an oncoming jet with its lights on, except it wasn't an oncoming jet. 45 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,000 747 was nothing compared to this big flying saucer. 46 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:59,000 After several minutes of observing the UFO, the pilots realize the objects are now matching their speed, 600 miles per hour, tracking them. 47 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:07,000 The captain reports that the objects begin, quote, making moves that are impossible for any man-made aircraft to perform. 48 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:14,000 Then, without warning, two of the smaller craft suddenly rise and shoot directly in front of the pilot's window. 49 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:22,000 The objects come so close to the airplane that Captain Terauchi says the intense glow makes his face feel warm. 50 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,000 All of a sudden, they appear and they're traveling right in front of the aircraft, and they were sort of wobbling back and forth as they moved. 51 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:35,000 They seem to be only a thousand, maybe two thousand feet in front of the aircraft and traveling at 600 and some miles an hour. 52 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:41,000 At that very moment, the radio-linked anchorage goes dead, leaving the aircraft flying blind. 53 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:48,000 A horrifying catastrophe is seconds away, but the UFOs rise and veer left. 54 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Departure from the object, requesting two full-fledged off. 55 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,000 Commander 1628 heavy, deviation is approved as necessary for traffic. 56 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000 It's quite the big, I'll make a full-machin'. 57 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000 Full-machin'. 58 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:11,000 In his official FAA report, Captain Terauchi says, quote, we had to get away from that object. 59 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Commander 1628, sir, do you still have the traffic? 60 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000 Disappeared, Captain Alfa, 1828. 61 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,000 Commander 1628, I have understood you do not see the traffic any longer. 62 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Okay. 63 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Moments later, an urgent message comes in from Elmendorf Air Force Base. 64 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,000 The unidentified object now appears on their radar. 65 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000 Yeah, that's one-nash-two again. 66 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:37,000 We have confirmed there is a flight size of two around your 1550 squawk, one primary return only. 67 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,000 Okay, where is he? 68 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,000 Follow him. 69 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000 It looks like he is, yes. 70 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000 Okay, stand by. 71 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:49,000 The phrase flight size of two indicates that JAL 1628 has uninvited guests with possible hostile intentions. 72 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:58,000 Commander 1628 heavy, military radar advised that they are picking up an intermittent primary target behind you, in trail. 73 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,000 In trail, I'll say again. 74 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,000 Immediately after this confirmation, the FAA requests that the Air Force scramble jets. 75 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Do you have any information to scramble up there or do you want to do that? 76 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,000 We're going to talk to your liaison officer about that. 77 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:15,000 It's starting to concern the designer line, I think it's in 16 hours. 78 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000 Okay, we're going to call the military desk on this. 79 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:25,000 Although the military desk took no action, JAL 1628 was able to land safely in Anchorage at 6.20 p.m. 80 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:34,000 Extensive media coverage from around the world helped make this incident one of the most widely reported UFO cases in history. 81 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:45,000 While the JAL case continues to inspire debate about the nature and intent of the objects that tracked the 747, to this day, the case remains a mystery. 82 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,000 The Japan Airlines 747 had a saucer go around it. 83 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:55,000 The papers mysteriously disappeared from the FAA office. 84 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:05,000 January 30, 1987, only two months after the JAL report, a similar UFO event takes place in the same Alaskan skies. 85 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,000 But this one involves the U.S. military. 86 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:21,000 A U.S. Air Force KC-135, inbound from Elmendorf Air Base in Anchorage to Ilesund Air Force Base southeast of Fairbanks, reports a chilling UFO-related incident at 20,000 feet. 87 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000 The area still needs traffic force around 1 o'clock. 88 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000 Can't really tell the distance. 89 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000 CST.Go altitude. 90 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000 After 2-9, negative, I have no traffic in your 1 o'clock. 91 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:43,000 The pilot reports that the object is strikingly similar to the UFO reported by the JAL flight, a massive disc-shaped, noiseless object larger than an aircraft carrier. 92 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:50,000 Seconds later, Anchorage Air Traffic Control asks if the KC-135 still has the object in sight. 93 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:56,000 The pilot replies yes, and says the object is now 40 feet from his aircraft. 94 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:04,000 The recent incident involving JAL Flight 1628 even comes up in their cockpit recording. 95 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:11,000 What's the cal.40 that you're visiting up here? People, theaters sort of thing, a lot, others, and state airlines types? 96 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,000 Actor T9, it's very rare seeing the lights up there. 97 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:24,000 30 minutes later, the Anchorage Control Tower passes along a message from the regional FAA office. 98 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,000 Anchorage, 2-9, the quality assurance staff at the Anchorage Center here requests you give them a call after you land at IELSEN. 99 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,000 That is concerning the object we're looking at. 100 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,000 Affirmative, sir. 101 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000 I think pilots make especially good UFO witnesses. 102 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,000 They know what's normal in the sky and what isn't. 103 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000 They've seen all different kinds of airplanes routinely. 104 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:52,000 When a pilot reports the UFO, there's a better than average chance that that's what it was. 105 00:08:52,000 --> 00:09:03,000 January 31st, 1987, less than 24 hours after the KC-135 encounter, yet another UFO related incident occurs in the skies above Alaska. 106 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:11,000 The pilots aboard Alaska Airlines Flight 53 reportedly witness enormous bright, disc-like objects tracking their airplane. 107 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:19,000 Ground control reports that no object is visible on radar, but it is the speed of the UFO craft that alarms the pilots. 108 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,000 The hat just underneath our radar picked up the flip. He's moving about a mile a second. 109 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,000 He's pulled out straight ahead of us, disappeared. 110 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,000 Man, he was there and then he was gone. 111 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:35,000 If you're a pilot and you report a UFO sighting to the FAA, you might as well turn in your license the next day. 112 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:42,000 The FAA, the military, even civilian authorities don't want to know about UFOs. 113 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:51,000 Pilot encounters with UFOs first surfaced in the 1920s and 30s, long before black box and controlled tower tape recordings were possible. 114 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,000 Sightings by pilots have occurred ever since the very beginning with Kenneth Arnold. 115 00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,000 Kenneth Arnold was flying from Chahalos, Washington, over towards Idaho. 116 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:08,000 Somewhere around Mount Rainier, he identified what looked to him to be about nine aircraft traveling in an east to west position. 117 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:15,000 Was this man Kenneth Arnold from Boise in Idaho who ushered in the era of the flying saucer? 118 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:22,000 At this point, where I had this terrific flash, I looked way off here to the north, and then when I saw where the flash came from, 119 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,000 it was an enchilon formation of a very peculiar looking aircraft. 120 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:36,000 The second craft from the rear had a more or less crescent shape, and of course I kept mulling in my mind that said, damn this looking airplane I ever saw. 121 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:46,000 Upon landing in Yakima, Washington on June 24th, 1947, Arnold makes what would become the very first civilian reports of UFOs to the government. 122 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:53,000 He would describe the objects to reporters as appearing and moving like, quote, saucers skipping across the water. 123 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,000 Somebody else twisted that around into the term flying saucer. That was the beginning of it. 124 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:06,000 His official report made to the Joint Army and Air Force's intelligence is seen here for the first time on television. 125 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:15,000 Arnold describes the UFOs as thin, round in the front, and coming to a point in the back, and did not appear to whirl or spin. 126 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:28,000 He watches as the craft flip and flash in the sun, and comments, the more I observe these objects, the more upset I became, as I am accustomed and familiar with most all objects flying. 127 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:39,000 The Arnold case was extremely significant in that prior to it, there had been no talk publicly about disc shaped, shiny objects flying around. 128 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000 And we haven't been without UFOs or flying saucers ever since. 129 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:56,000 The Grand Canyon is a graveyard for 128 passengers and crew of two airliners which collided in the thunderstorm and crashed on peaks little more than a mile apart. 130 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:05,000 The impact reduced the wreckage to carbonized smears of paint and metal. None survived. It was the worst commercial air disaster in history. 131 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:23,000 While some experimental black box and pilot voice recorders were in use by the military during World War II, it was not until a catastrophic mid-air collision in 1956, about 200 miles due east of Area 51, that onboard recording boxes were mandated by the FAA. 132 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:37,000 A major accident above the Grand Canyon imposed the FAA and the NTSB to ask for all the aligns to be equipped with audio recording system. 133 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:48,000 Since the mandate of cockpit voice recorders, hundreds of reports have been made of strange lights, near miscollisions, and radar tracking of unidentified flying objects. 134 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:56,000 Three recent pilot recordings captured over New England have been obtained for this broadcast. They are presented here for the first time. 135 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:08,000 One of the most fascinating cases is Lufthansa 405 out of JFK November 18, 1995, where they saw a UFO across Long Island. 136 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:24,000 November 18, 1995, while on a routine flight above Long Island, New York, Lufthansa Flight 405 and Airbus A340 out of New York, en route to Frankfurt, Germany, makes a disturbing call to Boston Air Traffic Control. 137 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:29,000 The pilots reported unidentified flying objects passing within 3,000 feet of their plane. 138 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:37,000 It took the on-hour tail about 10 minutes to pass the test a long minute ago and it was really strange. 139 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:45,000 The UFO is described as a long cylindrical object with a white light on the front and a long green comet tail. 140 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:58,000 The strange UFO is also seen by British Airways Flight 226, a 747 flying from London, and is just north of the object. The code name for British Airways flights is Speedbird. 141 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:08,000 It actually looked like a opposite traffic to the UFO. It was a very strong vehicle, we looked more like smoke, and the light on the front was very, very bright. 142 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,000 Airbus A3405, how far did you sighted that traffic pass? 143 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:23,000 It was pretty close, and like the Speedbird said, it looked like 4 or 3,000 feet above on the left wing of the Cessna Connumer, looked like a new air force. 144 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:34,000 Boston Air Traffic Control contacts Giant Killer, the military fleet area control and surveillance facility that monitors restricted airspace over the northeast. 145 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,000 Giant Killer, are you getting any of these flying out in the area? 146 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,000 Negative, one of them fast turned over. 147 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,000 Well, then I just had a couple of UFO reports. 148 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,000 Who was that guy? 149 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:48,000 I had a couple of guys that reported lights just going all over their head. I had no traffic whatsoever in the area. 150 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,000 They said it passed within a mile of them, like 2,000 feet above them, opposite direction. 151 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,000 Huh, 2,000 feet of media or something? 152 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,000 We don't have any access to that. 153 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:08,000 Both pilots confirm the object has glowing lights. The object has a green vapor trail, not like any vapor trail they've ever seen. 154 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,000 Both pilots immediately questioned the idea that the UFO they saw was a meteor. 155 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,000 Sometimes a 405, so you would say that it definitely wasn't a meteorite. 156 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,000 No, no, I don't know. It's just a static. 157 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:26,000 It's still a 2,600, it's not been a meteorite because it was flying level. 158 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:34,000 It was going very quickly, it was possibly normal aircraft. It was creating a straight line at one level flight. 159 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,000 Number 226, thank you. We're looking into it. I mean, we're making a report. We really don't know what it was. 160 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,000 And the military hasn't admitted anything flying tonight. 161 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:52,000 While the authenticity of this recording is not in question, the FAA and both airlines have never commented on this mysterious incident over New England. 162 00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:01,000 Two years later, Boston would be the epicenter of yet another strange encounter between pilots and UFOs. 163 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:11,000 But this time, the encounter would result in a near-miss collision. The incident was captured on tape by the aircraft's black box recorder. 164 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:19,000 August 9th, 1997, Swiss Air Flight 127 is a jumbo jet en route to Zurich, Switzerland. 165 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:24,000 Pilot Philip Baubay and First Officer Kurt GrĂ¼nder are at the controls. 166 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:31,000 At 23,000 feet, Baubay will later report that his visibility was excellent with no haze and a clear blue sky. 167 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:36,000 Until an unidentified craft enters the plane's airspace. 168 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:40,000 The pilot immediately contacts Boston Air Traffic Control. 169 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,000 Sir, 127, go ahead. 170 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:48,000 Yes, sir. I don't know what it was, but it was just over to like a couple of hundred seats above us. 171 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,000 I don't know if it was a rocket or whatever, but it credibly fast all the way towards the direction. 172 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,000 It was too fast to be an airplane. 173 00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:04,000 Later in his official report, Baubay will describe the UFO as a bright white cylindrical object with no wings, similar to a white shark. 174 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:13,000 Aviation writer Don Berlin have filed a Freedom of Information Act request to obtain the FAA audio and written records of this incident. 175 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:22,000 The Swiss Air case is significant because the object that was described is quite unusual and the people reporting it have excellent credentials. 176 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,000 These are veteran airline pilots. 177 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:31,000 Moments later, the Boston Control Tower contacts another sector operator who is about to take over the flight. 178 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:36,000 Hey Chris, at Swiss Air 127, he had a UFO or a rocket, something almost hit him in my airspace. 179 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,000 A UFO or a rocket almost hit the Swiss Air 127? 180 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,000 Went right above him, about two or three hundred feet. 181 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:51,000 The pilot's official incident report classifies the object as a UFO, categorizing its shape, color and speed. 182 00:17:52,000 --> 00:18:02,000 However, the NTSB and FAA concluded the object seen by Swiss Air 127 was a weather balloon, launched by the military at about the same time. 183 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:11,000 These are not the kind of people who would be fooled by weather balloons because these are fairly common experiences among airline pilots. 184 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,000 It's really hard to mistake a weather balloon for much of anything else. 185 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000 These eerie sightings of UFOs are not isolated to the northeast. 186 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:25,000 In fact, sightings of UFOs by pilots have been reported across the country. 187 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:37,000 On February 28, 1996, the skies over the Midwest are rocked by simultaneous reports of frightening airplane-like objects moving at incredible speeds. 188 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:49,000 This case involves two commercial aircraft, air-shottled 59-59 en route to Cleveland and Misaba 31-79, a Dash 8, heading from Detroit to Pelston, Michigan. 189 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,000 This event was recorded by the Cleveland Tower. 190 00:18:52,000 --> 00:19:02,000 Cleveland Tower gets a report from an air-shuttle flight coming out of Detroit that they've picked up a strange light very close to them. 191 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Nobody can figure out what the light is. 192 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:14,000 Next, Cleveland Air-Shuttle 59-59, we see traffic out there at 12.00 to 1.00 o'clock, a low altitude, do you have the meter? 193 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Air-Shuttle 59-59, that's a negative, sir. I don't have anything out in front of you. Can you get an estimate on an altitude on it? 194 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:29,000 We're in between layers here. I'm going to estimate a few thousand people, or maybe a little tall city light, about, I don't know, 10 miles down. 195 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:38,000 Do you see that north-west of Detroit? Did you see that light? Yeah. That's right, so I saw a real bright, light light, sometimes split turn, underneath the cloud. 196 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:50,000 Two reports from two separate aircraft, and both pilots describe the same bright pulsating lights between the cloud layers. Cleveland Air-Traffic Control questions if the light might be a landing beacon. 197 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,000 Air-Shuttle 59-59, is that traffic that you saw earlier? Do you see them out there any longer? 198 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Yeah, Air-Shuttle 59-59, that's permanent. I don't know if we'll get closer to what, but it looks like a rotating light around it, like a frisbee type thing that's going around it. 199 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,000 The Saab of 3179, do you see the same thing? 200 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:20,000 Sir, I saw it coming out of Detroit, and I wondered, oh, Garthall was just a couple of real bright flashes of light, but it looked like it was underneath the cloud deck to me, maybe 10,000 feet. 201 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:30,000 Would you think it might be like a reflection, maybe perhaps off a beacon, that for some reason it's just one of those weird things, natural phenomena, that you're getting a reflection, because I got nothing out there? 202 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:39,000 There's definitely a distinct whiteish, well, there's looking a little red and greenish light sort of pulsating, and it is confident it's not a beacon. 203 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:53,000 The Cleveland Air-Shuttle hangs a U-E, goes under the light, and now is looking at the light from underneath and says, absolutely not Cleveland, we're seeing the light above us probably at 5,000 feet. 204 00:20:53,000 --> 00:21:07,000 And Cleveland Air-Shuttle, 5,900, 5,900. Just to keep you advised, we're just sitting at 4,000 feet right now, and as we descend to 2,000 feet, that object is above us right now. It is not on the ground, it's about 10,000 feet. 205 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,000 I'd say, well, that is weird, if you're sitting up there. 206 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:16,000 I'm trying to do a little investigating as to what this might be, and if you would keep me advised on this. 207 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,000 Okay, sir, I'm going to light my lights, and I'm going to see if I can get any reaction on them. 208 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,000 The Sabot 31-79, when you flashed your lights, did you get any response? 209 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,000 I did, sir. 210 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000 Okay. 211 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:34,000 A double pilot sighting caught on radio that you would never hear because the media never covered it. 212 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:45,000 On May 25, 1995, an exceptional UFO-related event occurs more than seven miles above Earth. 213 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:51,000 An enormous, fast-moving UFO was witnessed by an America West Airlines crew. 214 00:21:51,000 --> 00:22:01,000 What makes this incident a watershed in black box recordings is that it is one of the first on record to reportedly involve a government agency, NORAD, 215 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000 the government's watcher of the North American skies. 216 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:12,000 In this 1995 America West Airlines case, the government got involved briefly. 217 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Somebody with air traffic control told one of the crew members that they had been in touch with NORAD, 218 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:24,000 which had briefly confirmed radar tracking of something in the area and then later denied it. 219 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:32,000 The Air Force confirmed that there was an object, and especially in the NORAD, the North American Air Defense Command, 220 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,000 yeah, we detect something. 221 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:40,000 America West Flight 564 is flying from Tampa, Florida to Las Vegas, Nevada. 222 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:48,000 Captain Eugene Tollison and First Officer John Waller are in control, cruising at 39,000 feet above Bovina, Texas. 223 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:57,000 All is normal until 10.25 p.m., when the pilot see a UFO just below them at 30,000 feet. 224 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:07,000 The actual recordings between Flight 564, Albuquerque Air Traffic Control and NORAD were recently obtained by the History Channel. 225 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000 KK, Flight 564, singing. 226 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:14,000 There's something on the radar from the other centers that all on that particular area. 227 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,000 That object, it's up in here. 228 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000 It's up in here. 229 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,000 A permanent... 230 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000 What's the altitude about? 231 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:35,000 I don't know, probably around 30,000 or so, and it's a drill that starts from going counterclockwise, and the length is unbelievable. 232 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000 The pulsating object is reportedly over 400 feet long, yet invisible on radar. 233 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:49,000 This prompts air traffic control to contact nearby Cannon Air Force Base radar operations in Clovis, New Mexico. 234 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000 Can it go ahead? 235 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:56,000 Hey, it's 39,000, so you see something at 30,000 if the length is unbelievable and it has a strobe on it. 236 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,000 Uh-huh. 237 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,000 This is not good. 238 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,000 What does that mean? 239 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,000 I don't know, it's a UFO, so it's a Roswell cramp again. 240 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:17,000 The crew that saw it described it as a long thin object, cylindrical, with a series of lights down the side, blinking on and off in sequence. 241 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:30,000 This so, a cigar-shaped object flying with strobing lights on the length of roughly 300 feet, which is quite big. 242 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:41,000 Seconds later, an Air Force F-117A Nighthawk from the 49th fighter wing at Hollam and Air Force Base is alerted by air traffic control. 243 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:47,000 The stealth fighter sees something. 244 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,000 Okay, five in the next two to three minutes, be looking off to your right side. 245 00:24:51,000 --> 00:25:02,000 If you see anything about 30,000 feet, one aircraft reported dead, something, it wasn't a weather balloon or anything, it was a long, uh, right looking thing with a strobe on it. 246 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,000 Let me know if you see anything out there. 247 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000 Any traffic on fire at 1-4 right now? 248 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:12,000 No, I've got something passing off here at 9 o'clock, at about 12 at 31 Westbound. 249 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:21,000 The nighthawk reports an object passing off its left wing. 250 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,000 America West 564 has the same experience moments later. 251 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,000 The object moves dangerously close to both aircraft. 252 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,000 The anxious America West crew contacts Albuquerque air traffic control again. 253 00:25:34,000 --> 00:26:02,000 The object suddenly disappears from Flight 564's view. 254 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:12,000 Then a concerned Albuquerque air traffic control contacts NORAD's Western Air Defense sector headquarters at McCord Air Force Base into Coma, Washington. 255 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:17,000 I've got something unusual and I was wondering if you all have any of anything going on out here. 256 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:26,000 I had a couple of aircrafts reported something 300 to 400 foot long, slender-pulled in shape with a strobe at 30,000 feet. 257 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,000 We don't have anything going on that I know of. 258 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,000 This guy definitely saw it run all the way down the side of the airplane. 259 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,000 It's right out of the X-files. 260 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,000 I mean, it's a definite UFO or something like that. 261 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,000 Oh, y'all are serious about this. 262 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,000 Yeah, he's real serious about it too. 263 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,000 He looked at it, saw it. 264 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:53,000 13 minutes later, Albuquerque air traffic control checks in again with NORAD. 265 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Only this time NORAD has something. 266 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:01,000 We had some call here earlier about a pilot spotting an unidentified flying object. 267 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,000 Yep, that's us. 268 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:08,000 Okay, well hey, we're tracking a search-only track kind of up where that might have happened. 269 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000 We've been tracking it for about three, four minutes now. 270 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:16,000 According to the official report, NORAD has denied this incident in writing. 271 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,000 These were experienced airline pilots. 272 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,000 They've been flying thousands of hours. 273 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,000 They were familiar with the sky. 274 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,000 And they say something, you have to pay more attention to it. 275 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:34,000 A Melbourne Australia television reporter said his crew filmed UFOs for seven minutes Saturday night 276 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:38,000 over the eastern region of New Zealand, South Island. 277 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:45,000 On December 21st, 1978, New Zealand cargo plane pilots John Randell and Keith Hine 278 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,000 observed strange light phenomenon over the sea near the South Island of New Zealand. 279 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:55,000 The objects are picked up as well by Wellington, New Zealand air traffic control radar 280 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,000 and reports reach local media. 281 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,000 Ten days later, on December 31st, producers at Australia's Channel 10 282 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,000 dispatched report a Quentin Fogarty with a camera crew 283 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,000 to attempt to find these same UFOs along the exact same flight path. 284 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,000 And they do. 285 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,000 Air traffic controllers were recording strange blips on their radar. 286 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,000 Here is what reporter Quentin Fogarty said as he traced an airline flight 287 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,000 that reported seeing UFOs last month. 288 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,000 We're now on the radar room at Christchurch Airport. 289 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,000 It's about quarter to two and in about another 20 minutes 290 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:35,000 we intend to take off again in the Argyll Sea and retrace the route we took only a few moments earlier. 291 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:41,000 We've just heard from Wellington radar that there are still targets in the Kaikoura area. 292 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,000 So this time we're hoping to get better film than we did last time 293 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,000 and all I can say is we'll see what happens. 294 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,000 The New Zealand case is of considerable importance in the history of ufology 295 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,000 because of the residue of information that's available afterwards. 296 00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:01,000 We have the film itself and the tape recordings made by Quentin Fogarty on the aircraft 297 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:06,000 and of prime importance is we have the tape recording made by the Wellington Air Traffic Control Center 298 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000 and it provides a history of the sighting minute by minute. 299 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,000 We're about in our three minutes out of Christchurch Airport 300 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,000 and on our starboard side we can see two very bright lights. 301 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,000 One much brighter than the other it is like a very very bright star 302 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,000 and just below it is another light not quite so bright. 303 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:30,000 Just before midnight Fogarty goes airborne with New Zealand cargo pilot Bill Stardap. 304 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,000 The beginning of the flight is uneventful. 305 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:40,000 Then at 12.05 am Fogarty and the crew see strange lights and objects coming toward them from the right side of the plane. 306 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:44,000 Fogarty turns on his camera and begins filming. 307 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000 Those two lights appear to be travelling with us. 308 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,000 They're still off the starboard wing. 309 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:54,000 The brighter light is still above the other and it's moved a little further ahead of the other. 310 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,000 It's extremely bright much brighter than any of the other stars in the sky. 311 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:05,000 Ground radar observes these objects and the control tower confirms the sighting and records the conversation. 312 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:10,000 What follows is the actual audio of this unusually well documented event. 313 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:16,000 There's a star target showing at left of target three miles. 314 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,000 And it's very high for that one. 315 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,000 Just left of target three miles. 316 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Captain Stardap recounts that the object or target is initially ahead of him 317 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,000 and travels at an unbelievable speed past his left side. 318 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,000 He quickly banks the plane left in an attempt to make visual contact. 319 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:41,000 On the ground Wellington air traffic control radio is a chilling message to the captain. 320 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:48,000 They've picked up yet another target on his left side and this one is closing in on the plane. 321 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,000 Target is 12 o'clock, captain Stardap. 322 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:04,000 I'm now looking over towards the right of the aircraft and we have an object confirmed by Wellington radar 323 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000 and it's been following us for quite a while. 324 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:13,000 It's about four miles away and it looks like a very faint star but then it's a very bright white green light. 325 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:22,000 Captain Stardap is able to get close enough to determine that the object is an array of bright blue lights pulsing at a rapid rate. 326 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,000 To his shock the object has gotten bigger. 327 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:33,000 There was an interesting radar event where the object, some object got so close to the aircraft 328 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:39,000 that it looked at Wellington radars if the aircraft radar target image had doubled in size. 329 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:45,000 Subtract target, right information within our target has doubled in size. 330 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000 The double size target continues to appear on radar screens for 36 seconds. 331 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,000 Then returns back to normal size. 332 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,000 Blue lights right there. 333 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:03,000 This is the object which was apparently traveling along with the aircraft, it was picked up on aircraft radar. 334 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:12,000 Dr. Bruce McAvie received a 16 millimeter copy of the Argusy UFO film directly from the Australian TV network in 1979. 335 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,000 This complete and unedited film has never been made available before. 336 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:26,000 Experts believe that these images are the most comprehensive and frightening UFO evidence ever captured on film. 337 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:32,000 This is the famous New Zealand film obtained the night of December 31, 1978. 338 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:36,000 The cameraman is sitting in the seat between the pilot and the copilot. 339 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,000 The image is dancing around because he was carrying it on his shoulder. 340 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:47,000 They saw this light to their right and this light as time goes on will fade in and out, takes on various shapes. 341 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,000 This is the flashing light that you have to slow down and look at frame by frame to see what happens. 342 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:59,000 When you go from very bright white down to dim orange and see the image went over to the side, then he turned the camera a little bit in order to pull it back into the center. 343 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:06,000 That other target that has been following us has now been joined by two others. 344 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:12,000 So we now at this stage have three unidentified flying objects just off our right wing. 345 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:17,000 They have been following us for one of the three following us now for probably about ten minutes. 346 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:26,000 I've won the hope that we've seen enough tonight and the rest of our journey back to play that will be uneventful. 347 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,000 I think I've just about enough of UFOs for one night. 348 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000 And that's the way it is, or is it? Monday January 1, 1979. 349 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,000 This is Water Crank Guide, CBS News. Good night. 350 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,000 Pilot sightings of UFOs are not exclusive to Earth's atmosphere. 351 00:33:50,000 --> 00:34:02,000 In the early 1960s, as America and the Soviet Union escalate the space race, astronauts and cosmonauts begin to witness strange and unexplained objects and events in outer space. 352 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:11,000 You know, in 1958 when NASA formed, they literally expected to make contact with extraterrestrial life. 353 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:16,000 3, 2, 1, Ignition. 354 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,000 Four hours and 24 minutes into the historic 14-day mission. 355 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:28,000 The astronauts of Gemini 7, Frank Borman and James Lovell, both military test pilots are performing routine tasks, 356 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:39,000 then suddenly at 2234 universal time, as the capsule is high above Hawaii, both men see a bright object or bogey flying above their capsule. 357 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:46,000 Borman radio's mission control in Houston. What follows are the actual radio transmissions. 358 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,000 7, 9, 7, here you are, 9, here, 8. 359 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,000 Lot's clear, 7, go ahead. 360 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000 How close are you at 10 o'clock high? 361 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,000 This is Houston, say again, 7. 362 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,000 So, we are approaching at 10 o'clock high. 363 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:07,000 The recording suddenly ends. NASA insists the sighting is Gemini's Titan Booster Rocket. 364 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,000 Lovell replies that he can see the booster as well as, quote, several actual sightings. 365 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:22,000 I remember hearing this on my car radio, talked to NASA, and they confirmed that that was the phrase used, we have a bogey in sight. 366 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:32,000 NASA's official Gemini 7 mission report, published in January 1966, no mention is ever made of the infamous bogey recording. 367 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:37,000 Neither Lovell nor Borman have ever commented publicly on this message. 368 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:44,000 But as far as the American public is concerned, NASA denies the very existence of UFOs. 369 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,000 They've been covering up since the dawn of spaceflight. 370 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:53,000 From the early years of the space program, NASA was beset with sighting reports from astronauts. 371 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,000 September 13, 1966. 372 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:05,000 Gemini 11 astronauts Richard Gordon and Charles Pete Conrad see something strange on their 16th Revolution of Earth. 373 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,000 27 hours and 47 minutes after takeoff. 374 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,000 Conrad radios ground control. 375 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:17,000 He reports he has just seen an unidentified object about 50 miles downrange. 376 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:22,000 It is metallic and revolving at more than one revolution per second. 377 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,000 He then pulls out a camera and snaps three photographs. 378 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,000 It drops down in front of them before quickly disappearing. 379 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,000 Seeing here are the actual photographs taken by Conrad aboard Gemini 11. 380 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:44,000 And NORAD said that the only thing that they could imagine it was was a booster from a Russian satellite. 381 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,000 The NASA people threw out the NORAD explanation almost immediately. 382 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,000 The Gemini 11 case is the only one that NASA considers to be unidentified. 383 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:57,000 Gemini 11, however, was not the last NASA mission to have alleged encounters with UFOs. 384 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:04,000 In fact, more and more UFO sightings were reported as Gemini opened the door to the Apollo program. 385 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,000 The Apollo astronauts in particular were trailed by UFOs. 386 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:18,000 It is a wedged that Neil Armstrong saw UFOs, many of the astronauts did, but they won't talk about it publicly yet, but they might. 387 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:23,000 There's been a tanguality base here. The eagle has landed. 388 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:34,000 The famous Apollo 11 mission reportedly experienced objects tracking the capsule, as well as objects that were photographed by the astronauts on the lunar surface. 389 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:46,000 Four months later, on November 14, 1969, Apollo 12 commander Pete Conrad reports back to NASA that he sees an unidentified object out his window. 390 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:52,000 An object which is at the same place all the time, but appears to be tumbling. 391 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,000 I've always had it. Ever since yesterday, it just seems to be tagging along with it. 392 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:05,000 While the object is widely considered to be debris falling from the booster, many researchers remain skeptical. 393 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:12,000 They suggest such an object would be incapable of tracking a fast-moving space capsule for an extended period of time. 394 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:25,000 As the Apollo missions open the door to the Space Shuttle program, experts are convinced the door was also open to an increased level of UFO activity in outer space. 395 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:38,000 In 1981, NASA initiates the Space Shuttle program, and with it, an unprecedented wave of UFO sightings including astounding audio and video evidence. 396 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:48,000 One highly controversial recording emerges from STS-29, a Space Shuttle Discovery flight on March 13, 1989. 397 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,000 Astronaut John Blaha reports the sighting of something unusual. 398 00:38:52,000 --> 00:39:04,000 One of the NASA transmissions that wasn't successfully sanitized back in 1989, one of the astronauts on a Space Shuttle said, we're still looking at the aliens. It was as plain as day. 399 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:10,000 The following recording was reportedly intercepted by a ham radio operator in Maryland. 400 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:22,000 To this day, NASA has neither confirmed nor denied the validity of this transmission. 401 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:31,000 The Space Shuttle has two radio channels. One is a public channel that we all hear when NASA is broadcasting. We can hear what the astronauts are saying. 402 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:37,000 The other channel is a Department of Defense encrypted channel, and that's where I believe the real conversations are going on. 403 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:49,000 The new millennium ushered in more UFO sightings by NASA shuttle crews. One extraordinary recording occurred aboard Space Shuttle flight STS-73. 404 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:56,000 Mission specialist Katherine Coleman sees something curious on day three of the routine 15-day mission. 405 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,000 This is October 21, 1995. 406 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,000 Now we have an unidentified flying object. 407 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:16,000 And nothing after. I mean, there she is. Katherine's just floating around in there, and that's where I believe they went on to the Department of Defense encrypted channel on the Space Shuttle, and they continued the conversation. 408 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:21,000 Researcher David Cerreira has been studying unusual phenomenon in outer space for over a decade. 409 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:30,000 It is his theory that NASA continued recording, but on a secret frequency, leaving us with more questions than answers. 410 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,000 We have an unidentified flying object. 411 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:40,000 Even recent shuttle missions have had eerie reports and sightings of strange objects. 412 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:52,000 According to Cerreira, some of the most shocking evidence of UFOs in outer space comes as recently as August 6, 2005 from Space Shuttle flight STS-114. 413 00:40:52,000 --> 00:41:01,000 Well, the Space Shuttle is doing 18,000 miles an hour around the Earth, so the object is traveling obviously much faster than 18,000 miles an hour to catch up to the shuttle. 414 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,000 The fly in tandem speed with it, and then it takes off and goes back out the other way. 415 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,000 This is real footage from the Space Shuttle. 416 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:19,000 Even considering that it may be just a few miles away from the Space Shuttle is obviously a very large UFO. 417 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:26,000 The object enters quickly, dramatically changes speed and direction, then flies back out of frame. 418 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:35,000 The trajectory and speed of the object defy all laws of physics, leaving researchers like Cerreira to draw their own conclusions. 419 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,000 When you zoom in on video frames or any digital media, you get pixelation. 420 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:50,000 So some of the rectangular shapes you see are pixels, but notice also you can see the round ore of light around it, so you can still differentiate shapes within the pixels. 421 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:55,000 There's no way that's dust and debris. There's no way it's another satellite. 422 00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:01,000 When you go through process of elimination, you know that what we're seeing in STS-114 is truly a UFO. 423 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,000 There's really nothing else out there like that. 424 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:16,000 Since NASA does not comment on the topic of UFOs, the authenticity of space recordings and sightings cannot be officially confirmed, which leaves many questions unanswered. 425 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:29,000 UFOs constantly trailed our spaceships around planet Earth, the Space Shuttle, but more importantly all the Apollo, the project Apollo spacecraft on the way to the moon. 426 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:34,000 I think a lot of astronauts are going to start coming forward and testifying to what they have seen. 427 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:39,000 My impression is that the guys who are running around saying the NASA stuff proved something are hyping it. 428 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:51,000 As Earth's airspace grows more and more crowded each day and more people than ever take to the skies, is it possible that reports like the ones you've just seen will continue? 429 00:42:51,000 --> 00:43:01,000 There are reams and reams of official reports by commercial aircraft, by private aircraft and military aircraft about pilot encounters. 430 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:15,000 Even if while we're sitting right here in California, a UFO turned up over Santa Monica Bay, you probably hear a great explanation of how it was a reflection of the sun behind the cloud. 431 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:24,000 So many reports from so many experienced pilots of strange phenomenon and frightening encounters with UFOs since the beginning of manned flight. 432 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:35,000 As our pilots fly through Earth's atmosphere and further into space, many continue to wander, do the skies truly belong to us or to them?
