201 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,000 And if so, would this mean the government is acting to protect us, 202 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,000 or are they in fact protecting us from the truth? 203 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,000 Further evidence may be found in chilling eyewitness accounts 204 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,000 of what many say is the most secret and dangerous military base 205 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,000 in the world. 206 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:19,000 UFO researchers believe Area 52, also known as Dugway Proving Ground, 207 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,000 has a long history of UFO sightings, government secrecy, 208 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,000 and official cover-ups. Case in point. 209 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:32,000 The Skull Valley sheep incident, where overnight more than 6,000 sheep 210 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,000 died mysteriously 30 miles from Area 52. 211 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:43,000 Since 1968, clues of what may have killed the sheep have slowly come to light. 212 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:48,000 Dugway Proving Ground was a location where many highly classified 213 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:53,000 chemical and biological tests were carried out, and in 1968 214 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,000 one of these went wrong when VX nerve agent was inadvertently released. 215 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,000 Well, it's an interesting thing what the army did. 216 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,000 On the one hand, they denied for years and years that they had anything to do with this, 217 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000 but we know that quietly they were compensating the ranchers. 218 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,000 Obviously, they knew that they were responsible for the deaths of those sheep. 219 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:16,000 Although a nerve agent is widely blamed for the tragedy, some UFO researchers believe 220 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,000 there was a hidden agenda behind the nerve agent's release. 221 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,000 One meant to conceal an even bigger secret. 222 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:28,000 Just so happens during this same time, there was massive UFO sightings. 223 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,000 Some witnesses have actually filmed these UFOs and these lights in the sky. 224 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:39,000 Was it a diversionary tactic by the military to focus on these UFOs and these lights in the sky, 225 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000 or it could be the other way around? 226 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,000 Maybe they're using the sheep incident to take focus off the UFOs. 227 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:51,000 If they're testing this type of weaponry, what do we not know about 228 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,000 the craft and the sightings being seen around the area? 229 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,000 The Dugway sheep incident did serve a purpose. 230 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,000 It frightened people, kept them away, kept them from asking questions 231 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,000 because they saw what would happen. 232 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:10,000 These UFO sightings continue to this day, and I feel, as do other researchers, 233 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,000 that these objects are monitoring what's taking place at Dugway. 234 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000 So this is important. 235 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:26,000 Could the sheep incident and the simultaneous sightings of UFOs have served as an early warning 236 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:32,000 that our government is operating secret programs at Area 52 connected to UFOs? 237 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:40,000 And if so, does the high-state security and secrecy suggest the government is really working with extraterrestrials 238 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000 and continues to do so even today? 239 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:51,000 Some people in the UFO community believe that Area 52 is a location where collaborative projects 240 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:55,000 between the U.S. government and extraterrestrials take place. 241 00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:02,000 And this is the very location where people are reporting all sorts of advanced aircraft, 242 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,000 chemical and biological weapons. 243 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:11,000 Is this a coincidence, or are these weapons and aircraft the fruits of that project? 244 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,000 What goes on in the base will always be a secret. 245 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:21,000 But what we do know is the residents around the area have repeatedly, for decades, reported 246 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,000 a high number of UFO sightings. 247 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:29,000 I believe there absolutely is a connection between what's taking place at Dugway 248 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,000 and what we see with the unidentified phenomenon. 249 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,000 Dave Rosenfeld is among a number of growing UFO researchers 250 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,000 who contend Dugway has been a hotbed of UFO activity for decades. 251 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:52,000 I've seen craft flying around at Dugway, doing maneuvers that I know conventional craft can't do. 252 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,000 And so it's either experimental craft or it's not ours. 253 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:03,000 I've personally witnessed unconventional craft being escorted by Blackhawk helicopters. 254 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:09,000 I've heard of other stories that have come my way where UFOs have been seen in the area 255 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,000 and these type of craft cannot be all military. 256 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:18,000 There's no way that the military can account for all the sightings that happen out there. 257 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,000 We know that the US government has recovered through various means 258 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:29,000 Soviet MiG aircraft and managed to reverse engineer those. 259 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,000 But you look at something like stealth bombers and you think, 260 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,000 where on earth did that come from? 261 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,000 It looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. 262 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,000 Could there be any truth to the suggestion that stealth technology 263 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:48,000 actually is the result of recovered extraterrestrial technology? 264 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:56,000 When you look at the reports of aircraft, aircraft just stopping on a dime and then going straight up. 265 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,000 Aircraft vanishing literally into thin air. 266 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,000 When you look at stealth fighters and stealth bombers, 267 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:09,000 they seem so different from anything that came before that you can't help but wonder, 268 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:15,000 could this be the result of our having acquired extraterrestrial technology? 269 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:26,000 If a UFO crashed at Roswell in 1947, it stands to reason they would work on trying to reverse engineer it. 270 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:32,000 In other words, scientists and technicians and engineers would be trying to figure out 271 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,000 what the technology is and trying to build one themselves. 272 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,000 I believe that we have technology out there that's so advanced, 273 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000 we don't understand what they're working with, 274 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:51,000 but then you've got this extraterrestrial or some sort of intelligence that's interacting at this area 275 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:56,000 and we can't explain that either, but there is a definite connection between the two. 276 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:01,000 It is possible that they're working on very advanced technology, 277 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:06,000 even reverse engineer technology from sources that are not from here, let's just say. 278 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:11,000 Unfortunately, we have a lot of questions about these secret bases. 279 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:19,000 But if the government and its elite private contractors are reverse engineering technology from UFOs, as many suspect, 280 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,000 how are they getting their hands on such spacecraft? 281 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:31,000 November 2009, an unidentified object lights up the night sky above North America. 282 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:36,000 News reports claim it's just a meteorite, but as scientists track it on radar, 283 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,000 they determine that the object falls into area 52. 284 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:46,000 Many dismiss this as nothing more than coincidence, but is it really? 285 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:53,000 Searching for answers, UFO investigators point to another similar incident that occurs only a few years earlier. 286 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,000 In the early 2000s, NASA launched a space probe called Genesis, 287 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:03,000 and its mission was to collect the first ever cosmic material that's beyond the moon that we would bring back. 288 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:08,000 This was a mission to try and understand what's in the solar wind. 289 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:16,000 But when Genesis attempts to return to Earth, something apparently goes wrong. 290 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:24,000 NASA's Genesis space probe malfunctioned, but they were able to force it to crash land. 291 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,000 Let's hear the visual. 292 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,000 And where did that happen? Area 52. 293 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,000 Is it a coincidence, or is there something else at play here? 294 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:39,000 The crash at area 52 coupled with the rumors about that area, 295 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:44,000 suggesting that this is where alien technology is being back-engineered, 296 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,000 and even advanced weaponry is being developed, 297 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:54,000 has led to the suggestion that they have some sort of weapon actually designed to bring down a UFO, 298 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:59,000 and that what happened to the Genesis space program was a test of this technology. 299 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:07,000 At the time the space probe came down, we had no idea that they had the ability to redirect a craft 300 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:14,000 re-entering the Earth's atmosphere, which they clearly did with this space probe coming into Dougway. 301 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,000 So could this be something that they were testing? It very well could be. 302 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:27,000 Is it possible the military and NASA possess the expertise to bring down UFOs, as researchers believe? 303 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:33,000 And if so, could this be a part of an ultra-secret reverse engineering project? 304 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:40,000 When I look at some of the most advanced technologies that are coming out of the military, out of what we call the black budget world, 305 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,000 in terms of officially recognized technology and leaks, 306 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:53,000 my strong feeling is that a good portion of this comes from science and technology that does not come from us. 307 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,000 It comes from somewhere else. 308 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,000 If UFOs are coming here from distant worlds, 309 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:09,000 a recently released NASA satellite image could throw open the doors to a new level of conversation about government complicity with the UFO phenomenon. 310 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:19,000 UFO researcher Dave Rosenfeld has seen and heard reports of so many astounding spacecraft in and around Area 52 311 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:24,000 to suspect that somewhere on the massive property of Dougway Proving Ground, 312 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:30,000 he believes there exists evidence that could alter human history forever. 313 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,000 I've personally witnessed flying saucers, 314 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,000 disappearing jets, triangle-looking craft. 315 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,000 My conclusion is that there's a military spaceport at Dougway, 316 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,000 and I don't think anybody can tell me any different. 317 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000 But is there proof to back up such a claim? 318 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:55,000 Investigators say the evidence lies with a NASA space probe named Mariner 9. 319 00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:01,000 The Mariner 9 mission was NASA's first chance to get a good look at the spacecraft. 320 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,000 It was NASA's first chance to get a good look at what Mars looks like. 321 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:11,000 Suspecting the Mariner 9 images were not fully released to the public, 322 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:17,000 UFO experts have long believed that something more unusual had been photographed on the Martian surface. 323 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:28,000 Finally, in 2015, 44 years after the mission, NASA releases an image that investigators call Earth Shattering. 324 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:35,000 NASA released an enormous number of thousands of other pictures that they took of Mars from that time, 325 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:42,000 but they did not release that picture until 44 years later. Why not? 326 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,000 This satellite image, seen for the first time on national television, 327 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:54,000 shows a previously undiscovered, mysterious rock formation on the Martian surface. 328 00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:00,000 So this is the NASA Mariner 9 image from the surface of Mars. 329 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:05,000 Mountain range here, mountain cluster here, big valley. 330 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,000 And the area of interest is this cone-shaped protrusion, this hill, 331 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:17,000 coming up right out of the surface with these rocks placed either by coincidence or carefully placed 332 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,000 in an arrangement on the top of the mountain, just like other structures that we've seen on Earth. 333 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:27,000 It is possible that that Mars formation is a natural formation. I'm not saying it isn't. 334 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:34,000 But I do wonder why would NASA have held off publishing that picture for two generations? 335 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000 There's a question to ask. 336 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:44,000 The Mariner 9 image is fascinating. There's no getting away from the fact that it looks like a stone circle. 337 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:51,000 It looks like exactly the kind of neolithic stone circles that we find here on Earth. 338 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:59,000 Erected between 3000 and 2000 BC, Stonehenge is one of the most mysterious ancient sites on Earth. 339 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:06,000 Some of the bigger stones at Stonehenge weigh many, many tons, and it's difficult, if not impossible, 340 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:11,000 to see how people at the time could have transported them to the location. 341 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:16,000 This is a time before the wheel, and yet we know that some of those bigger stones 342 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000 were somehow transported all the way from Wales. 343 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:27,000 If, as some believe, prehistoric man alone could not move such stones weighing up to 25 tons 344 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,000 over a distance of 200 miles, then who or what did? 345 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:38,000 The answer lies, UFO experts say, in the similarity of the Stonehenge monument 346 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,000 and the rock formation discovered on Mars. 347 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:48,000 In looking at these structures side by side, Stonehenge and Mars, we have very specific things that are similar. 348 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Four rock placements, four stones in the center, and two concentric circles. 349 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,000 And the two concentric circles encircle the four stones. 350 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,000 Now, that's very interesting that that would be like that. 351 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,000 Does it serve some purpose in science, or is it a remarkable coincidence? 352 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,000 The fact that these objects do indeed look similar, 353 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:17,000 one could speculate that there was an extraterrestrial component involved in both of these sites. 354 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:26,000 Some theorists have speculated that Stonehenge was perhaps a place that extraterrestrial craft landed. 355 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,000 Could this be said of Mars? 356 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,000 We don't know. 357 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,000 Still, some researchers disagree. 358 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:39,000 Now, when you get down to the actual details, it's fairly obvious it isn't the same. 359 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:46,000 But it is bizarre where you have circular type structure looking objects on an alien surface, 360 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,000 on a different planet other than Earth. 361 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,000 Is there a logical explanation? 362 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,000 Sure, it's just not as fun as the alien one. 363 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:59,000 Even so, most UFO investigators really believe the resemblance is significant. 364 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,000 In fact, they go one step further. 365 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:07,000 They see similarities in the formations at Stonehenge and Mars 366 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:14,000 to never before seen satellite images of what appears to be a landing site at Area 52. 367 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:21,000 The aerial image shows features in the Utah desert that mirror those of both Stonehenge and Mars. 368 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:29,000 When one does a comparison between Stonehenge, the Mars rock formation, and Area 52, 369 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,000 there are certainly similarities. 370 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:35,000 Is that a coincidence, or is there something else going on? 371 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:43,000 Does the evidence suggest that Area 52 really does function as a spaceport, as UFO researchers believe? 372 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,000 When you look at Stonehenge and you look at this rock formation on Mars 373 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:53,000 and the connection maybe with Dougway having a similar type of formation, 374 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000 does that mean that all three of them are spaceports? 375 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,000 I believe that it's possible. 376 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:07,000 If the evidence is credible, as UFO researchers believe, what else is the government possibly hiding? 377 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:13,000 And what about new information from scientists that is changing the conversation about UFO sightings? 378 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:19,000 Does this provide a new perspective on the government's involvement with the UFO phenomenon? 379 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:27,000 For Dave Rosenfeld, there is no doubt that UFOs are connected to top-secret activity at Area 52. 380 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,000 And he believes he's got proof. 381 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:37,000 There's many times we go out there for sky watches and we bring all our equipment out there, the telescopes, and night vision. 382 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:42,000 And one night, about one o'clock in the morning, and then all of a sudden we see about five miles away, 383 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:47,000 just this huge flashing light and then a beam of light came out of the middle. 384 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:52,000 Completely went through a cloud and continued up into space. 385 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,000 We could actually smell like static electricity. 386 00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:01,000 Dave describes what happened next when he took this actual never-before-seen photo that night. 387 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:13,000 Now, the second time it fired, we watched four or five blue lights come down and completely surround this beam, like they were watching. 388 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:18,000 And as soon as that beam shut off, they took off. 389 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:28,000 Was this simply a test of a secret weapons program, one similar to the technology that brought down the Genesis space probe? 390 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,000 Or is there more to the story? 391 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:38,000 And will the government or military ever admit what is known about UFOs and alien technology? 392 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,000 Some experts will argue they already have. 393 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:50,000 As the recent release of thousands of declassified documents by the United States, including the CIA and other world governments, 394 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:56,000 could prove there really is official evidence of UFOs. 395 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:03,000 But why are so many countries suddenly releasing so many UFO documents all at the same time? 396 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:10,000 Over the last decade, interest in UFOs has been growing. 397 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:17,000 But it wasn't until recently that the subject of government secrets was thrust into the spotlight. 398 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:28,000 May 13, 2016, news outlets confirmed that confidential British government files on UFO sightings will be released to the public. 399 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:36,000 I'm hoping these new files will shed light on many of the biggest and most important UFO cases in the British government's files. 400 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:43,000 Perhaps the biggest is the Rendlesham Forest incident. 401 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:51,000 The UFO was briefly tracked on military radar and this object, whatever it was, briefly landed. 402 00:29:51,000 --> 00:30:00,000 Radiation levels at the landing site were subsequently assessed and they were significantly higher than the average background. 403 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:07,000 One of the witnesses was the deputy base commander himself. 404 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:20,000 So we had a senior and highly skeptical officer who went out into the forest in his own words to debunk all this UFO nonsense and he ended up a witness himself. 405 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:28,000 In the files both of the British Ministry of Defence and the Civil Aviation Authority, 406 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:35,000 there are reports of what I can only describe as virtual dogfights taking place in the British skies. 407 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,000 Pilots were being vectored towards UFOs by air traffic control. 408 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:50,000 Just as they closed on the object, it would respond with extraordinary speeds and maneuvers and somehow evade even our fastest jets. 409 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:57,000 Some of the skeptics even will take a look at some of this material and say, wait a minute, what's going on here? 410 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:03,000 Could such newly declassified documents begin to change our perspective on UFOs? 411 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:09,000 More documents have been released in France with the publication of an official report in 2010. 412 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:15,000 In 2010, the prominent French body, the Aeronautical and Astronomical Society, 413 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:21,000 which was comprised of very high ranking established French scientists, 414 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:30,000 released a study of UFOs in which they concluded that the UFO phenomenon is real and could be extraterrestrial. 415 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:37,000 When you have a government that's willing to say a phenomena like UFOs is actually real, that's a big statement to make. 416 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:46,000 The big variable here is what is a UFO? The question mark is if it's alien and the French government, although didn't make that leap, 417 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:54,000 they were able to at least definitively say this phenomena is real and warrants further scientific investigation. 418 00:31:54,000 --> 00:32:01,000 And there are still even more governments releasing their formally classified UFO files. 419 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:12,000 In 2009, News Channel Russia Today reported the Russian Navy declassified its records of encounters captured by military surveillance. 420 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:26,000 Closer to home, in January 2016, the CIA released thousands of declassified documents relating to UFOs, flying saucers and other unexplained phenomena. 421 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:38,000 Some of these files, which will be seen for the first time, will contain information about UFOs that I suspect will change people's mind about the whole phenomenon. 422 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:48,000 One such document was a report by the CIA's Scientific Intelligence Department, following a wave of UFO sightings over Washington, D.C. 423 00:32:48,000 --> 00:33:03,000 Dated October 2, 1952, and seen here for the first time on national television, their findings conclude that flying saucers pose two elements of danger which involve national security implications. 424 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:12,000 The first involves mass psychological considerations, and the second concerns vulnerability of the United States to air attack. 425 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:23,000 The fact that you've got a memo going directly to the CIA director about UFOs and the potential dangers is significant and interesting in and of itself. 426 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,000 Why were UFOs considered to be of extreme national security importance? 427 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:39,000 When you have unknown objects invading sensitive airspace that do not look normal, that do not behave normally, that act with impunity over our most sensitive places in the world, 428 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:44,000 what would the military say to the public that would not cause panic? 429 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:57,000 How easy can it be for any government, particularly the United States government, to admit that there are objects so far beyond our ability to control that we don't know how to control them? 430 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:07,000 What the CIA documents show is that if there was truly a fear of a UFO attack or that these UFOs were malicious in some way or aggressive, 431 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:15,000 it could absolutely change the mindsets of those calling the shots on what places like Doug Wade would research and what their mission statements really were. 432 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:27,000 The CIA's document dump is one more example in a pattern of government agencies acknowledging the UFO phenomenon. 433 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:33,000 It's estimated 28 countries, including the Vatican, have now released their UFO documents. 434 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:42,000 I think that that should show the world, show our planet that the UFO phenomena is real, that their governments are not afraid to say this phenomenon actually exists. 435 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:58,000 I don't know of any single UFO document that proves that UFOs are extraterrestrial, but I will say that when you take the top 10, the top 100, the top several hundred of these documents from now around the world, 436 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:05,000 they do prove something. They prove that this UFO phenomenon is real and is not explainable conventionally. 437 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:15,000 Why are prominent nations, space agencies, and religious institutions all over the world suddenly releasing their secret knowledge of UFOs? 438 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:26,000 With all these countries coming forward disclosing UFO information, I do believe they're trying to acclimate us to the UFO presence little by little. 439 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:33,000 So if it does happen, if the UFOs do show up on the White House lawn, we're not going to freak out. We're not going to panic. 440 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,000 We'll be more acceptive to the idea. 441 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:50,000 And it may not be just governments that are acclimating us. There is actual science that's also changing the conversation about UFOs and the increasing probability of intelligent life in our galaxy. 442 00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:00,000 In fact, NASA astronomers have recently made what many claim is the single most incredible discovery so far in this 21st century. 443 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:09,000 For the first time, breaking news reveals what scientists and the government know about where UFOs may be coming from. 444 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:29,000 Governments all around the world have been declassifying their secret knowledge of UFOs. But why? Is it possible they know of new evidence pointing to the existence of intelligent extraterrestrial life? 445 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:47,000 July 23, 2015, NASA astronomers using the Kepler Space Telescope announced the groundbreaking discovery of the first Earth-sized planet orbiting a star within the habitable zone of a distant solar system. 446 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:56,000 The Kepler mission is about finding planets and it's about understanding how common planets like our own are in the galaxy. 447 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:07,000 The habitable zone is also known as the Goldilocks zone. That's because it's not too hot and not too cold. It's just the right temperature where liquid water could exist on the surface of this planet. 448 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,000 And we think liquid water is necessary for life. 449 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:26,000 One year after this amazing discovery, in May of 2016, NASA releases further astounding news confirming the existence of over 2,300 habitable Earth-sized planets within our Milky Way galaxy. 450 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:33,000 They also estimate that there could actually be billions of habitable zone planets based on these findings. 451 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:44,000 The more carefully we look, we learn that there are places out there that look very similar to our own planets. And there's many, many of them. 452 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:55,000 There's probably more planets than there are stars. That means 100 billion of them. So even if life is rare, it should still form all the time. 453 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:12,000 The laws of physics and chemistry appear to be constant in the universe. That being the case, the same processes that gave rise to life here on Earth should replicate countless billions and billions of times out there in the cosmos. 454 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:21,000 And that being the case, there's probably a lot of life out there. And not just life, but some of that life will be intelligent life. 455 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:32,000 It's obvious now, as Carl Sagan once put it, the universe is teeming with life. Billions and billions of habitable planets will undoubtedly be known to exist. 456 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:48,000 So what is the likelihood that one or more than one of those habitable planets have developed life that is advanced, like us, and life that has advanced technology, and life that may have had a million-year head start on us, or more? 457 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:56,000 When the Wright brothers achieved flight, they had no idea that 100 years after they achieved what they did, we would have a space shuttle. 458 00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:06,000 If science and technology progresses into the future another 150 years, at the same pace that it has for the last 150 years, imagine the possibilities. 459 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:22,000 Could the existence of thousands of potentially habitable planets support what many UFO experts know to be true? That these newly discovered worlds are the source of UFOs already here on Earth? 460 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:35,000 Clearly, we have to assume that there has to have been life out there that made the breakthrough to highly advanced technology and artificial intelligence and advanced nanotechnology and quantum computing and beyond and everything else that we can imagine. 461 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:45,000 And if they have done this, what is the likelihood that they may have been able to find us at some point in the game? I think the likelihood is extremely high. 462 00:39:46,000 --> 00:40:02,000 One can look at a number of things throughout human history and say, well, is this evidence of UFOs? Everything from ancient cave paintings, all these mysteries from our ancient past and all the more modern UFO sightings. 463 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:16,000 When you put together all this UFO evidence with what science is now telling us about the number of planets out there in the habitable zone, suddenly UFOs and alien visitation doesn't seem that unlikely. 464 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:26,000 Is it possible that modern science is looking in deep space for the source of alien life that our government already know exists? 465 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:44,000 It's an amazing thing when you consider how rapidly we have now found thousands of habitable planets. So it is highly likely that another civilization from out there has found us and found us interesting as coming to check us out. 466 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:51,000 Are world governments revealing all that they know in advance of some kind of world changing event? 467 00:40:51,000 --> 00:41:10,000 With governments all around the world declassifying and releasing UFO information, one can't help but think maybe they know something's coming and if there's a mass visitation or a landing, some big undeniable UFO event, all that information is going to be obsolete anyway. 468 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:24,000 I've been researching this for a long time. I've looked at mountains and mountains of evidence and in my judgment there's no question that UFOs are real and that there are agencies within the intelligence community that know this. 469 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:33,000 Could all the recent revelations and increased awareness of Area 52 be just a coincidence? Or is it more? 470 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:44,000 Maybe this is why Doug Wei's mission expanded because of this threat from outer space. Perhaps they're building countermeasures against an alien intact. 471 00:41:44,000 --> 00:42:03,000 Is it possible our world leaders are finally acknowledging what they have known all along that man's contact with UFOs runs deeper and is more far reaching than ever imagined? Or are they preparing us for something to come?
