1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Main thing alert, under war plan Bravo.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Tonight on Unidentified.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
The hair on the back of my neck stood up.

4
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,000
It shot straight up.

5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,000
And was gone.

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:22,000
The team investigates the link between UFO sightings and nuclear installations.

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,000
These vehicles were hovering directly above nuclear weapons facilities and nuclear missile silos.

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
They were there scoping out our capabilities.

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000
These weapons systems had been shut off line.

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,000
That's a terrifying capability.

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
There is a definitive link to nuclear technology.

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000
The question is why?

13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000
These things don't seem to obey the laws of physics.

14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:57,000
They're sure as hell not going to obey the laws of politics.

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,000
Everything we know about UFOs is changing.

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Thanks to a team led by former Pentagon UFO investigator Lou Elizondo.

17
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,000
That is real, whatever that is.

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,000
And former top intelligence official Chris Mellon.

19
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
This is a current continuing phenomenon.

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,000
It's happening. It continues to happen.

21
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,000
They discovered five unique characteristics that UFOs have in common.

22
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000
They call the five observables.

23
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000
And released groundbreaking videos.

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,000
That forced the Navy to admit its pilots were coming face to face with unidentified objects.

25
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,000
The US Navy made a shocking admission today.

26
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000
Strange flying objects caught on tape by their own fighter pilots are in fact UFOs.

27
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Something needs to be done.

28
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Now a new wave of military witnesses is coming out of the shadows.

29
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,000
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared to f*** this.

30
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,000
I'd never seen anything move like that.

31
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Shape, size, speed is clearly unidentified.

32
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000
The team is united on a new mission.

33
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Connect the dots to reveal the truth about UFOs.

34
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,000
This thing had no capability, like anything on Earth.

35
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,000
And warn the world about the dangers they might represent.

36
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Carl Sagan once famously said,

37
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000
extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

38
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000
He was absolutely right.

39
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,000
But now we have the proof.

40
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,000
When I was at the Pentagon,

41
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:44,000
one of the concerns we had was the connection that UFOs have to our nuclear weapons systems or nuclear power plants.

42
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:49,000
Lou Elizondo is on his way to interview a former US Air Force officer

43
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,000
willing to speak about his UFO sighting for the first time.

44
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,000
The alleged sighting took place at an Air Force base with nuclear weapons

45
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
and a long history of strange encounters.

46
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,000
My name is Daniel Gibson. I'm a retired Air Force major.

47
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Major Gibson, thank you very much for taking your time to come and speak with us here today.

48
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,000
I'd like to start by asking you, what inspired you to come here today and why now?

49
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:19,000
In the fall of 1995, I was stationed at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana, right outside of Great Falls.

50
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Malmstrom is primarily a ICBM missile base.

51
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Since the 1960s, Malmstrom Air Force Base has housed hundreds of intercontinental ballistic missiles

52
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,000
with nuclear warheads capable of destroying entire cities.

53
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
During the Cold War, the base was part of the so-called Northern Tier Defense System,

54
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:47,000
a string of seven nuclear bases that provided a protective arc for the US and its allies.

55
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:54,000
Launch trajectories from the Soviet Union come over the poles across Alaska and Canada.

56
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:00,000
A ring of bases were established across the northern United States

57
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,000
to house both ICBMs and strategic bombers.

58
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,000
And they were the bedrock of our strategic deterrence and our security and safety.

59
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Main thing alert, under War Plan Bravo.

60
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,000
In the fall of 1995, Gibson was on board a KC-135 as it conducted mid-air refueling

61
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:26,000
for a fleet of B-1B strategic heavy bombers which can carry nuclear payloads anywhere in the world.

62
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Once the refueling was done, we started our trip back to Malmstrom.

63
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:35,000
I moved forward to the flight deck to enjoy the Aurora Borealis above us.

64
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Flight paths for these refueling missions often included views of the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights.

65
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000
All of a sudden, there was just this very bright light.

66
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000
The aircraft commander and the copilot, they saw it first, time kind of froze for us,

67
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,000
but it was probably a good minute that it was there.

68
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:04,000
This light, we watched it all the way down into the Aurora where it stopped.

69
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:14,000
And you could actually see the Aurora flowing around it, just as if you would see a bow-wife going around the front of a boat.

70
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:23,000
The longer the object stayed in the Aurora, the brighter the object got.

71
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,000
And then it just shot straight up and was gone.

72
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,000
So some people would say, you're obviously confused, you saw a planet or a star.

73
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:41,000
We had no doubt in our mind that it was not a star or a planet because it entered our atmosphere.

74
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,000
It was in the Aurora Borealis itself and then it shot straight back up.

75
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:51,000
I've seen the International Space Station, it moves at a very fast clip.

76
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,000
This was moving 10 times plus.

77
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,000
We all had the same reaction, it was almost a stunned silence.

78
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000
None of us had seen anything like that before.

79
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:09,000
Some folks will say, well, you know, it could be a Russian first stage booster rock coming in on re-entry.

80
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Well, initially we thought it was a shooting star, but then we saw the speed at which it was descending and then it stopped.

81
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,000
According to Gibson's account, the object possessed three of the five observables.

82
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Instantaneous acceleration, the ability to accelerate instantly from a standstill.

83
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Hypersonic velocity, speeds of 3700 miles per hour or more.

84
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,000
And trans-medium travel, the ability to move through air, water and the vacuum of space.

85
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,000
You're going from an atmospheric environment to potentially a vacuum environment.

86
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:55,000
I don't know of any object in our inventory that has the capability to stop mid-re-entry, stay in position,

87
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,000
and then once it's done, accelerate back out of the atmosphere.

88
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000
The G-forces would kill a human being.

89
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
To Elizondo, Major Gibson's sighting is part of a pattern.

90
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:16,000
While working with ATIP, the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program,

91
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:23,000
Elizondo says investigators researched multiple UFO sightings around Northern Tier nuclear bases during the Cold War.

92
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,000
These sightings were part of the G-forces' research.

93
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,000
These sightings were part of a recently leaked 500-page government-funded report

94
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,000
detailing dozens of alleged Cold War UFO encounters.

95
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Investigative journalist Tim McMillan has studied the report.

96
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:55,000
There's a chart that showed the number of UFO sightings within proximity to different nuclear facilities that house weapons systems.

97
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:04,000
There's a distinct correlation that these objects appear to be encroaching upon airspace of the Northern Tier.

98
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000
If you look at just those numbers alone, it's alarming.

99
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:21,000
One of the most remarkable Cold War air sightings also occurred near Momstrom Air Force Base, 18 years before Gibson's experience.

100
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,000
In 1967, several Air Force personnel reported seeing a glowing red object flying over the base.

101
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:36,000
The object appeared to move rapidly and was able to make sharp 90-degree turns, stop abruptly, and reverse course,

102
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
much like the movements described by Major Gibson nearly 30 years later.

103
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:50,000
Both the UFOs had this incredible ability to take off and basically go from a very low velocity,

104
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,000
almost a complete hover, to an incredible speed in the instant of time.

105
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000
And there is one more detail that concerns Elizondo and his team.

106
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:11,000
Reportedly, moments after the sighting, all 10 of Momstrom's 800-kiloton nuclear warheads were suddenly inexplicably turned off.

107
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,000
These weapons systems had been shut off-line, so they couldn't be fired.

108
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:22,000
If these were Russian aircraft, if these were someone else's aircraft,

109
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:30,000
the idea that something could possess a technology that could fly within proximity and take these systems off-line, that's a terrifying capability.

110
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Is this some sort of US secret technology or perhaps some sort of adversarial secret weapon system or platform?

111
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:51,000
There is a definitive link to nuclear technology, whether on the battle space or in time of peace.

112
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,000
That I think is becoming more and more clear.

113
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000
The question is, why? What is the connection?

114
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,000
It's not just happening near nuclear bases.

115
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Alarming UFO activity is also being reported around US nuclear assets at sea.

116
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Last year, the team interviewed multiple US Navy personnel, including two fighter pilots,

117
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:25,000
who described encountering Tic Tac shaped UFOs during a 2004 training exercise,

118
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,000
after taking off from a nuclear powered aircraft carrier.

119
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,000
All of a sudden it goes, boop, and it kind of turns.

120
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:37,000
It just rapidly accelerates beyond anything that I've ever seen, crosses my nose, and it's gone.

121
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,000
They uncovered other encounters with nuclear powered carriers.

122
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,000
It was basically a sphere with a tube inside.

123
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,000
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I don't know if I would have believed it either.

124
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:01,000
If these objects are interested in US nuclear technology, Alizando and Mellon want to know why.

125
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,000
These weapons and programs are the ultimate guarantor of our security.

126
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Any potential adversary would seek to neutralize that capability.

127
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:19,000
These unidentified craft, they're demonstrating capabilities far in excess of those we possess.

128
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:28,000
So we have every reason to find out who's operating these vehicles, how they work, and why they're here.

129
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,000
Now, Alizando is on his way to investigate another development.

130
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000
Hey, Mr. Marceau.

131
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Hello.

132
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,000
How you doing?

133
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Another military eyewitness is reporting a UFO near a location with a possible nuclear connection.

134
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,000
A UFO, he says, was giant.

135
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:58,000
Now that I'm no longer confined to just collecting DoD information as I was in ATIP, I can start talking to other people, see if there's anything we're missing.

136
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,000
And ultimately, use that information to help inform some of our key decision makers in our country.

137
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Every one of these stories adds another data point.

138
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,000
There's always something a little bit different that we didn't know before.

139
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:19,000
Lou Alizando is investigating the connection between UFOs and US nuclear assets.

140
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:28,000
If there's a technology out there that has the ability to interfere with our nuclear response capabilities, that is a national security issue for our country.

141
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:34,000
He's meeting with an eyewitness from a second military base near a so-called Northern Tier Defense Site.

142
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,000
Hey, Mr. Marceau.

143
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Lou.

144
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,000
How you doing?

145
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Good to see you.

146
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,000
Thanks for inviting me to your wonderful avowed.

147
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:49,000
But I'd like to do, David, I want to hear this story from front to back.

148
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,000
It was my first annual training.

149
00:12:52,000 --> 00:13:00,000
August 1st, 1992, I was deployed to a Canadian Army base called Gagetown in the province of New Brunswick.

150
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:10,000
CFB Gagetown is a large Canadian Army base just north of the US border, used by both countries as a training hub.

151
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:21,000
It was all Army. I don't know how many units were there, but people from all over the Northeast US and Eastern Canada all met up there to play these war games.

152
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Marceau and another guardsman, he refers to as Mike because he doesn't want his real name revealed, are assigned night watch at a remote ammunition storage bunker known as a pad.

153
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Mike was at pad one, I was at pad three.

154
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,000
And what's in between each pad?

155
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Thick forest.

156
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000
It was a very bright night.

157
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,000
The moon was full.

158
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
I could see the whole big pile of ammunition in front of me.

159
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
I had a weapon, had no ammunition.

160
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,000
I was a sitting duck there.

161
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:56,000
About 1120, the hair in the back of my neck starts to stand up.

162
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,000
I feel like someone's watching me.

163
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:06,000
The tree frogs and the crickets and all the nighttime forest noises stopped.

164
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,000
And then I look up at this enormous spacecraft.

165
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,000
My first instinct is don't move.

166
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,000
I was afraid that whoever was in there was going to see me.

167
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,000
I knew as soon as I saw what I was looking at.

168
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,000
And I was scared that you're fine.

169
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,000
I don't think it was moving when I first noticed it.

170
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,000
And then I saw it move over the trees.

171
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,000
Is it's not like anything that's naturally occurring or even man-made?

172
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,000
I could hear like a static noise.

173
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,000
Like a TV that's not tuned into any channel.

174
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,000
We had field phones, always live.

175
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,000
I picked up the phone.

176
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,000
I said, Mike, are you there?

177
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,000
I said, did you see that?

178
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,000
And he said, thank God you said that.

179
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,000
I thought I was going crazy.

180
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:10,000
So if you can, David, just describe from the front to back rough dimensions.

181
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Marcel later asked an illustrator he knew to create an image of the craft.

182
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:21,000
Oblong, rounded corners, slightly tapered towards the tail.

183
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,000
It was taller than my house.

184
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,000
More than an acre long, half that width.

185
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,000
It was huge.

186
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Did you notice any wings, control surfaces, navigation lights, landing gear?

187
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:40,000
No visible means of keeping this thing aloft and stationary.

188
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,000
There was no downwash.

189
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,000
Only recently has Marcel been able to talk openly about what he experienced.

190
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:55,000
I was traumatized by this, just saying, yeah, I saw an alien spaceship.

191
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,000
These were your words.

192
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,000
I knew it was an alien ship.

193
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,000
Now that's a word I typically don't use, but you did.

194
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:08,000
I knew what to look for, and it was neither an Allied nor Soviet block aircraft.

195
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,000
It was not a commercial aircraft.

196
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,000
It was that.

197
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:18,000
It's pretty clear to me that they were there scoping out our capabilities.

198
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,000
And here's these huge caches of ammunition.

199
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Hey, let's go check this out.

200
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Really, really appreciate it.

201
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Elizondo wants to know more about Marcel's fellow witness.

202
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Until now, Mike has stayed silent, but he agrees to speak to Elizondo by phone.

203
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Hello.

204
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:44,000
It was fairly routine shift, and I spotted a very bright yellow orange light across the road.

205
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,000
It was about 30 feet above the tree tops.

206
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,000
It was there for at least a half hour or more.

207
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,000
All of a sudden, without any warning, it just took off.

208
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,000
It was like a streak of light.

209
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,000
It went so fast that if I closed my eyes for a second, I would have missed it.

210
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Did it shoot over the horizon?

211
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Where did it go? Did it go up?

212
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,000
All I saw was a streak of light.

213
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,000
It was completely silent.

214
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,000
I was talking to Dave.

215
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:14,000
I don't know if he asked me or if I asked him, but I remember, did you see that?

216
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:25,000
Elizondo recognizes three of the five observables, instantaneous acceleration, hypersonic velocity, and anti-gravity,

217
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:30,000
the ability to move without conventional propulsion or heat signature.

218
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,000
These vehicles don't seem to have any obvious signs of propulsion.

219
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:41,000
No wings or control surfaces, and yet somehow they seem to be defying Earth's gravitational pull.

220
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Both Mr. Marceau and Major Gibson described objects with this incredible ability to take off from a very low velocity,

221
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:56,000
almost a complete hover, to an incredible speed in the instant of time.

222
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,000
But why would a UFO show an interest in a Canadian military base?

223
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Gagetown was not far from Lauring Air Force Base in Maine, another of America's strategic Northern Tier nuclear bases.

224
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Whatever this phenomenon is, it seems to be keenly interested in our defense capabilities.

225
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,000
The Canadians are very closely integrated, in defending North America.

226
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:25,000
So not the least bit surprising that sightings would occur on both sides of the border.

227
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,000
I found it very interesting he said they were guarding ammunition,

228
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:36,000
and he mentioned that there was a 50 gallon drum barrel to simulate an atomic burst.

229
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Wow.

230
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Why would we have that?

231
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:43,000
It doesn't mean it's a real nuclear device, but it's to simulate that.

232
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:50,000
Is there a connection, once again, between potential nuclear technologies and UAP activity?

233
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:54,000
But another theory suggests a different kind of nuclear connection.

234
00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:00,000
You know it's interesting, about 60 miles outside of Gagetown there is a nuclear power plant.

235
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,000
The Point La Pro nuclear power generating station is one of just four nuclear power plants in all of Canada.

236
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Previously, Alizando had found a link not just with UFOs and missile bases, but also power plants.

237
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:21,000
You know when I was at ATIP, we were under the presumption that there was definitely a connection between UAP activity and our nuclear energy.

238
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,000
The question is who's doing it and why are they doing it?

239
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:30,000
There's all sorts of reasons why an enemy would want to spy on our nuclear capabilities.

240
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:37,000
They want to know do they have advancement in nuclear engineering that frankly they don't understand or have yet.

241
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,000
So it's no surprise that somebody is interested in our nuclear capabilities.

242
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,000
At this point is we just don't know who the hell it is.

243
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:52,000
A potential adversary is going to want to destroy our nuclear weapons capability to survive a nuclear conflict.

244
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:58,000
They're going to want to understand any vulnerabilities that they may have.

245
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:11,000
Out of the tree line rises this huge UFO.

246
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Louis Alizando is reviewing David Marceau's eyewitness account with former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Chris Mellon.

247
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:25,000
He remembers the entire forest being completely dead silent.

248
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Everything ceased.

249
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Everything ceased.

250
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,000
He did report it through his chain of command.

251
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,000
His chain of command ridiculed him for it.

252
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Were there follow-up interviews? Did OSI or Army counterintelligence or anyone interview him?

253
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Negative.

254
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,000
There should have been follow-up.

255
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,000
This kind of reporting should be examined in a purely objective fashion.

256
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:53,000
Some of our facilities owned by Department of Energy, DOE, may have some reporting as well that hasn't yet been brought to the light of day, so to speak.

257
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,000
And we know that's the case from the early years of the nuclear program.

258
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:01,000
There were so many sightings that it generated memos that got to the four star level.

259
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:06,000
These memos and official reports have never been made public.

260
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:13,000
Now, to further explore the link between UFOs and nuclear capabilities, Alizando is seeking out new witnesses.

261
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:20,000
This Air Force security specialist has asked to remain anonymous because he fears the repercussions of coming forward.

262
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:27,000
I was stationed at Ify Warren Air Force Base from 1987 until 1991.

263
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:33,000
Francis E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming is one of America's most secure nuclear strongholds.

264
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:39,000
It operates 150-minute-man-3 intercontinental ballistic missiles on constant alert.

265
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,000
Roger, point roads announced.

266
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,000
Clear.

267
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Like Malmstrom and lowering air force bases, Warren was also part of the Northern Tiered Nuclear Defense System.

268
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,000
I was a security specialist, worked out in missile fields.

269
00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:00,000
I was an Army Sponsored Team member at that point, which is two men working a 12-hour shift.

270
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,000
And I usually got stuck with working nighttime.

271
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,000
It was June 1988, the waning days of the Cold War.

272
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:17,000
We had just gotten on duty, and we had the missile crew down in a capsule call up to the flight security sergeant.

273
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Told him that they had several missiles go offline.

274
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,000
It's very rare for a missile field to go down.

275
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:31,000
The whole time that I was there, it had never happened except for that one incident.

276
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:40,000
My art team leader and I, we got into the truck and we headed off just patrolling the whole area.

277
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,000
It was right around 930s at that time.

278
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000
We had just got done clearing the site.

279
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:49,000
That's when the lights went out.

280
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,000
It's pitch black.

281
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,000
We can't see anything around us.

282
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Then we see this pinpoint of light, moving from north to south.

283
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,000
Then all of a sudden it made an immediate turn.

284
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:09,000
And we were thinking, wait a second, we don't know of any aircraft that would make that kind of 90 degree turn.

285
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,000
He then says he witnessed something even more alarming.

286
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:18,000
This light came up very quickly, stopped over us and hugged over us.

287
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,000
No sound.

288
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:29,000
We were both poking our heads out the windows looking up at an object probably about 100 feet above us that was 50 to 60 feet in diameter.

289
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,000
The edge of it was bright, but at the bottom of it you could tell it was a metallic surface.

290
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:41,000
That we could see red and blue lights moving in a circular fashion.

291
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,000
It was saucer on the bottom, saucer on the top.

292
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,000
And then what I think was the control area was angular and then flat on the top of that.

293
00:23:50,000 --> 00:24:00,000
When the lights were enveloping us in the whole missile silo, we felt a tingling sensation over our skin, over our faces.

294
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,000
It was so scary, you pretty much just frozen with fear.

295
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,000
It was only there for like two, three minutes.

296
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000
But when the actual craft left, it just zipped.

297
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,000
It was a streak of light going off.

298
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000
The witness and his partner returned to the launch facility.

299
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:28,000
We're still scared that that went very tense and the flight security sergeant was like, okay, so anything go on out there?

300
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
We were like, nope, nope, nothing happened.

301
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000
After that, we would never talk about it.

302
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:43,000
We knew just hearing from other people on the base, they label you as somebody who has mental problems.

303
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,000
The airmen stayed silent.

304
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:56,000
But just months later, multiple witnesses report a similar unidentified aircraft in the skies above Warren Air Force Base and nearby Cheyenne, Wyoming.

305
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000
I got spotted up here in the sky, I can't figure out where it is.

306
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:05,000
This is a picture of the unidentified flying object that hovered over Cheyenne early Wednesday morning.

307
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:13,000
According to 911 records, the officer saw a circular object floating in the sky and he said it was moving slowly across the horizon.

308
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:18,000
It was kind of long shaped and kind of oblong and it kind of curved in it.

309
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:24,000
And you can see lights in the middle going around like this, changing colors from red, blue, green and even some yellow in it.

310
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:30,000
Whatever it was, it returned last night when there were several new reports of UFO sightings over Cheyenne.

311
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:35,000
There were never any official reports about the incident at Warren Air Force Base.

312
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:40,000
But the sightings over Cheyenne serve as proof for one witness.

313
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,000
I've never told any of my family or friends exactly what happened.

314
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Even after 30 years, the emotions are still there at their raw.

315
00:25:51,000 --> 00:26:06,000
Safe to say now as a result of our current investigation here, that we may be looking at a 60 year effort by someone to either conduct reconnaissance on or interfere with our nuclear capabilities all along the Northern Tier.

316
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:17,000
The concern is, is there anything we can do about it? And the answer may very well be that there's no, there's nothing we can do about it right now.

317
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Three military eyewitnesses from the same era appear to back up Elizondo's belief that there's a connection between UFOs and America's strategic Northern Tier nuclear bases.

318
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Bases that housed our most advanced military assets.

319
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:36,000
But could an alleged encounter half a world away raise the stakes even higher?

320
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:46,000
I'm looking for validation for 24 years of this memory living in my head.

321
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:56,000
Today, another veteran is coming forward with a sighting that Luella Zondo believes could raise alarming new possibilities about a UFO's ability to track nuclear assets.

322
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,000
How are you, sir?

323
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,000
Good.

324
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,000
Thank you very much for coming here.

325
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,000
I've never said anything about this in a public venue.

326
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:11,000
You don't necessarily want to be the guy who saw a UFO. You don't want to have that stigma.

327
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Jeremy McGowan served in the US Air Force Security Forces.

328
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:26,000
I was part of a team that would get deployed all over the planet for multiple different types of exercises or operations.

329
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:33,000
In the mid-1990s, McGowan was deployed on a classified security mission deep in the Jordanian Desert.

330
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,000
We're basically told, here's a crate.

331
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,000
A very large crate that you could have driven a Volkswagen bug through.

332
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:48,000
There was no markings, no stencils, no nomenclature, no plaques, no cordons.

333
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:55,000
It was just a large wooden crate that had absolutely no business being in the middle of the desert.

334
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,000
We're told, don't let anybody near it. Don't get near it.

335
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
Any idea what might have been in that crate?

336
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000
I was never, never officially briefed as to what the contents of the crate was.

337
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,000
We were told that this crate was a top priority for security.

338
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:17,000
McGowan wonders why a crate in this remote desert needs such intense security.

339
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:23,000
On the base, we had Naval Special Warfare, 75th Ranger Battalion, FBI, the CIA.

340
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:31,000
You had units from the military that have very specific tasks when it comes to nuclear security.

341
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:36,000
McGowan suspects the crate contains some kind of nuclear material.

342
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:43,000
A realization that becomes even more concerning one night during his deployment when he's scanning the sky with night vision goggles.

343
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:56,000
All of a sudden, I saw a pinpoint of light in the night vision goggles that shot from my six o'clock.

344
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:06,000
It goes straight up to the apex of my vision and then does a 90 degree turn and shoots off to my nine o'clock.

345
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000
And it happened multiple times.

346
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:18,000
I'm seeing something that is going from my visual horizon to another visual horizon with a 90 degree turn in the middle of the apex.

347
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,000
And this was happening in under two seconds.

348
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,000
And it was repeating.

349
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:31,000
To Elizondo, the observables displayed by the object do not obey the laws of physics.

350
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:37,000
If you're looking at a fighter jet or a helicopter as it's turning, it's going to have an arc.

351
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,000
It's going to have a radius to that turn.

352
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Why would the things you witnessed not be a satellite?

353
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:53,000
Satellites go in orbits in very circular paths and directions. This was not that.

354
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:58,000
McAllen says he believes the object may have been tracking what's in the crate.

355
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:02,000
It was my belief that this was probably targeting the crate.

356
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:08,000
It was able to look down and select certain radiation signatures.

357
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,000
The government still has not told us what was in the crate.

358
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,000
They probably never will.

359
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:22,000
But after speaking with the people that I've spoken to, I have personally no doubt that this was a recovered warhead

360
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:28,000
from one of the fractured states of former Soviet Empire.

361
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:37,000
That was our biggest concern.

362
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:42,000
As the wall came down, the Russians, they didn't seem to be able to fully account for their inventory.

363
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,000
They had the largest nuclear inventory in the world.

364
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:53,000
There was a tremendous amount of angst and concern in our government.

365
00:30:53,000 --> 00:31:00,000
Could a UFO be capable of tracking a single nuclear warhead to the middle of a remote desert?

366
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,000
I have to be a little careful how I discuss this aspect just like he does.

367
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:15,000
But there is some reason to believe that inside that crate was what we refer to as a broken arrow, potentially a nuclear device.

368
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:24,000
Whatever it was, Jeremy McAllen is convinced that what he saw in the night sky was no normal aircraft.

369
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:32,000
When you look at an aircraft with night vision goggles, you can see the wing strobes, you can see the front strobes, you can see everything.

370
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,000
This was not identifiable.

371
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,000
This had no strobing effect.

372
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,000
It had no flash patterns.

373
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:44,000
It had nothing except a point of light that moved extremely quickly from horizon to horizon.

374
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:51,000
If there are things that can move like this, they do pose a national security threat.

375
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,000
I would take it a step further.

376
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,000
Is this a global threat?

377
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:58,000
Is this something that affects everybody regardless of borders?

378
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,000
These things don't seem to obey the laws of physics.

379
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000
They're sure as hell not going to obey the laws of politics.

380
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:11,000
The team has now heard four different accounts describing UFOs with advanced capabilities hovering near nuclear assets.

381
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:17,000
They believe it's information members of the government need to be aware of.

382
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Especially Lou Elizondo's mentor, the man who started the Pentagon's secret UFO program.

383
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:36,000
Lou Elizondo and Chris Mellon have spent months gathering new evidence of UFOs hovering near America's nuclear assets.

384
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,000
Now they're in Washington, D.C. to sound the alarm.

385
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,000
They can't avert their eyes to these anomalies any longer.

386
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:52,000
So we can stimulate that interest on the Hill by bringing some of the latest information to them as well as to the executive branch.

387
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:58,000
The team has briefed top lawmakers before and now some of those lawmakers are paying attention.

388
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:08,000
I'm not going to get into any of the contents of the briefing, but the military and others are taking this issue seriously, which I think in previous generations may not have been the case.

389
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:12,000
What shifted and why are politicians now coming out and saying we've received the briefing?

390
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Well, I think a large part of that does come down to Lou Elizondo and Chris Mellon.

391
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:26,000
You have two people from very different walks of life, both of whom have dedicated their careers to public service and national security.

392
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,000
They've really opened this issue up at senior government levels.

393
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:37,000
They're the pathfinders here. If you see Lou Elizondo as the Kirk, then you should see Chris Mellon as Spock.

394
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:47,000
Elizondo and Mellon have started the conversation, but have yet to convince the U.S. government to view UFOs and their connection to nuclear assets as a national security threat.

395
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,000
I did have one very brief meeting saying they're seeing UFOs. Do I believe it? Not particularly.

396
00:33:53,000 --> 00:34:01,000
We're seeing something in our skies that we don't know what it is, and yet for some reason our national reaction has always been very dismissive.

397
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,000
Nothing to see here, folks. Don't pay attention to that.

398
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:13,000
If this turns out to be an adversarial technology, and we've since been leapfrogged now for decades, I think there's going to be some people that are going to be held accountable.

399
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000
The American people are going to demand it.

400
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:28,000
Elizondo meets with the man who started it all, the creator of the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, to strategize how to get congressional attention.

401
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:42,000
This for me is probably one of the most important interviews that I've had, frankly, to date. If it wasn't for Senator Harry Reid, there never would have been a name tip. There never would have been the truth.

402
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:51,000
The former Nevada senator has been battling cancer, and Elizondo is eager to sit down again with his friend and mentor.

403
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:57,000
It's good that we're looking at it, and I hope we do look at it more, and I wish the government would get more involved rather than less involved.

404
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:05,000
Elizondo brief Senator Reid on the new eyewitness accounts he believes suggest a stronger connection between UFOs and nuclear assets.

405
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:21,000
So whether these are UAPs buzzing in and around our missile silos or around our nuclear triad capabilities, there does seem to be now empirical data showing conclusively that there is some sort of interest.

406
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:28,000
Now the question is, is this interest a benign interest or is this some sort of surveillance or reconnaissance effort?

407
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:34,000
I think that it's something that the military and state departments should be interested in.

408
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:46,000
He's been aware that these activities are continuing and had the courage to take it on and to say, you know, I'm not going to let personal embarrassment come between me and national security.

409
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Like Elizondo, Reid believes the possible link between UFOs and nuclear assets makes understanding what they are even more critical.

410
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Why do you suppose there are people in our government that are afraid of just talking about it?

411
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,000
They're afraid because they don't want to sound like a fringe person.

412
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:09,000
I've had people come to me, you can't do that because it's not keeping with my religion. I don't accept that.

413
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,000
What's your advice to the American people?

414
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Don't be afraid to ask questions. Put members of Congress on the spot.

415
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:24,000
There have not been 10 people have seen these things, not 20, but thousands and thousands are documented.

416
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Shut down. We have ships, see things out in the water. Communications stop.

417
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:35,000
So this isn't anything we could just pretend doesn't exist. UFOs exist.

418
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:44,000
I know you don't like to speculate, but have you had any theories, personal theories of what these things could be?

419
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:51,000
I have always believed there are southern beings out there. We're not talking about devils and goblins, we're talking about science.

420
00:36:51,000 --> 00:37:00,000
I have absolute confidence that the thousands of people who have reported them is too forceful to ignore.

421
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:06,000
We are missing the boat if we don't do everything we can to find out what they are.

422
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Thank you so much. I cannot thank you enough.

423
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:26,000
Lou Elizondo has spoken with four military witnesses who say they saw unidentified objects while on duty near nuclear sites in the 1980s and 90s.

424
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:33,000
It was neither an Allied nor Soviet block aircraft. It was not a commercial aircraft.

425
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:38,000
It's pretty clear to me that they were there scoping out our capabilities.

426
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:47,000
All of a sudden there was just this very bright light and then it just shot straight up and was gone.

427
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:54,000
This light came up very quickly. It stopped probably about 100 feet above us. No sound.

428
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:59,000
It's very rare for a missile site or a missile field to go down whatsoever.

429
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:12,000
This was not identifiable. It had nothing except a bright point of light that moved extremely quickly from horizon to horizon.

430
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:23,000
I don't want to conform the facts to already a preconceived opinion that I might have. So I'm curious your thoughts.

431
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:31,000
So we know this is occurring. We know it from these witnesses and this was a recurring phenomenon beginning at least in the 70s if not prior.

432
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Whether what's being seen lately is connected in any way to what was observed then is an open question.

433
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,000
There hasn't been a satisfactory answer provided yet.

434
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:49,000
But why we would ignore this data rather than seize it and examine it is a mystery to me. It makes no sense.

435
00:38:50,000 --> 00:39:06,000
For Elizondo and former top Pentagon official Chris Mellon's these recently uncovered sightings provide ominous new data points that extend the scope and time frame of what's known about UFO activities near America's nuclear assets and call for further investigation.

436
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Time and time again what I'm talking to individuals who were stationed at strategic locations around the world UAPs are being seen over some sort of US nuclear capability.

437
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:31,000
There should have been follow up with regard to these reports. Unfortunately in some cases as we could see from these witnesses what they got was ridicule rather than interest. That's extremely unfortunate.

438
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:54,000
This is what is so compelling to me as someone who does national security journalism. When you have some of the most highly trained observers over a prolonged period of time in the most highly cleared important positions in the US military whether that be manning an ICBM base in the middle of nowhere or a nuclear submarine or in a jet fighter.

439
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:59,000
These are witness accounts and evidence points that we also cannot ignore.

440
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:15,000
Though the team has recorded compelling new testimony connecting UFOs to US military nuclear assets. One mystery remains who controls these unidentified craft and for what purpose.

441
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:30,000
Why would you have those be interested in our nuclear weapons or our nuclear energy systems. We know human beings would be. We certainly are very interested in foreign governments nuclear proliferation.

442
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,000
And so are they aliens or are they us.

443
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:46,000
I still remain to be convinced that it is not from here but at the same time there's a very good possibility that we may not be alone.

444
00:40:46,000 --> 00:41:03,000
It seems to me that we need to look at anything and everything. The fact that vehicles are operating in such close proximity to these strategic nuclear weapons suggests that someone may be seeking to identify and exploit nuclear weapons.

445
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:09,000
Vulnerabilities associated with those weapons in order to defeat it.

446
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:21,000
It's difficult to imagine a more pressing requirement from my standpoint than to find out who is operating these vehicles why they're here what their intentions are.

447
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,000
The stakes are so high they're existential.
