1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Many UFO sightings are solitary events that leave witnesses

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,000
scrambling to prove their story.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
But what happens when the same object is seen by many people

4
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,000
at the same time?

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000
In 1965, pundits watch an amazement as a fireball crashes

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
in rural Pennsylvania.

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,000
But as eyewitnesses struggle to understand what they see,

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
they are unable to understand what they see.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
The US government establishes one of the most elaborate cover-ups

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
in UFO history.

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Is it a spectacular meteor?

12
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,000
A casualty of the space race?

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Or is it something out of this world?

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Join us as we expose the hidden secrets of the Kecksburg Incident

15
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
on Unstable.

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
A global effort has begun.

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Secret files hidden from the public for decades,

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,000
detailing every UFO account, are now available to the public.

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,000
We are about to uncover the truth behind these classified documents.

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Find out what the government doesn't want you to know.

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Unsealed.

22
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Alien files.

23
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Explained by the US government.

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Unsealed.

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Alien files.

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,000
Exposing the biggest secret on planet Earth.

27
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Mark Matney of NASA's Orbital Debris Program says,

28
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
it's very hard to determine what might have hit UARS.

29
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Though the main body of the satellite is intact,

30
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000
pieces fly off in all directions.

31
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000
It takes a further three years for the satellite's orbit to fully decay.

32
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Controlled descent is part of NASA's duties.

33
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000
They alert the media and the populace

34
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000
as they monitor the satellite's trajectory.

35
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:22,000
As what remains of UARS breaks the atmosphere,

36
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,000
it's observed speeding toward the Earth as a giant ball of fire.

37
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,000
It plunges harmlessly into the Pacific.

38
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Was the UARS satellite crash an accident?

39
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Or was it caused by a sinister alien force?

40
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:43,000
NASA routinely monitors events like this all the time.

41
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
But years earlier, another object made its way to the surface of our world,

42
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:53,000
but under very different circumstances.

43
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,000
December 9th, 1965, 4.45 p.m.

44
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,000
US Air Force radar command receives multiple reports of a fireball

45
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000
streaking east across the skies over Michigan.

46
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
It's falling at a tremendous speed.

47
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000
Witnesses take photos of the object

48
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,000
and the smoke trail it leaves behind.

49
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Grass fires are reported as debris drops in its wake.

50
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000
The object is believed to be a meteor.

51
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,000
But this meteor attracts the attention of more than just the scientific community.

52
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,000
NASA, the Air Force Special UFO office, and the Pentagon take notice.

53
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000
The fireball crashes near a small town in rural Pennsylvania,

54
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,000
sparking one of the biggest UFO controversies in American history.

55
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Unsealed case file.

56
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,000
The Kecksburg Incident.

57
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,000
A UFO crashes in the woods outside Kecksburg, Pennsylvania,

58
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:58,000
but the alleged meteor is believed to have exhibited strange behavior.

59
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,000
A witness reports, it appeared to maintain a certain altitude,

60
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:09,000
then all of a sudden made a sharp dip downwards from roughly 500 or 600 feet to 300.

61
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000
The military, along with state police, seal off the area

62
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,000
and turn away curious onlookers at gunpoint.

63
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,000
And when they gathered, what they noticed was that almost instantly

64
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:29,000
a group, a unit of American soldiers who were knowing Signia

65
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000
and came with a flatbed truck were there to retrieve this object and take it away.

66
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000
People were warned, keep your mouth shut, don't talk about this.

67
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,000
What did the army recover from the Kecksburg crash site?

68
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,000
And why did the army threaten eyewitnesses?

69
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000
According to those who say the army transported something out of the Kecksburg woods that night,

70
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
it wasn't a meteor.

71
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Residents report seeing a large bell shaped object under a tarp.

72
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:06,000
One witness described it as, a large solid metallic object, large enough for a man to stand inside.

73
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,000
The media reports nothing was found at the impact site,

74
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,000
and the Department of Defense denies any involvement.

75
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,000
But this does little to end public speculation,

76
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:23,000
especially in the 1960s when the space race is on everyone's mind.

77
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:29,000
The exploration of space will go ahead, whether we join in it or not.

78
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,000
And it is one of the great adventures of all time.

79
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
And no nation, which expects to be the leader of other nations,

80
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,000
can expect to stay behind in this race for space.

81
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:49,000
At the time, America and the Soviet Union are in a space race to be the first nation to put a man on the moon.

82
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,000
But NASA does not officially reveal any possible explanation for the Kecksburg incident.

83
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,000
NASA keeps its UFO secrets very close.

84
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,000
When I spoke to astronauts myself about UFOs,

85
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:11,000
they've said, pointedly, that one of the things that they are not just instructed to do,

86
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:17,000
but what is never to disclose to the public UFO sightings they have.

87
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:23,000
The official government explanation is that Kecksburg was the site of a meteor impact.

88
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,000
But how could a meteor change direction as witnesses report?

89
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,000
And what did the military take from the Kecksburg site?

90
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:38,000
1965. A fireball crashes to Earth outside the small town of Kecksburg, Pennsylvania.

91
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Authorities insist the object is a meteor, but witnesses report possible evidence of a UFO.

92
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,000
What really fell to Earth in Kecksburg?

93
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:57,000
Some experts believe the answer lies in tracing the whereabouts of the most important man in America at the time.

94
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:04,000
It is alleged that President Lyndon Johnson's vacation at his private Texas ranch is interrupted.

95
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
A group of VIPs wait for him in his living room.

96
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:13,000
The meeting is reportedly about budget issues concerning the Vietnam War.

97
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:22,000
But the list of visitors that day indicates the emergency meeting may have been about something completely different.

98
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Along with the Joint Chiefs of Staff are the Director of NASA and the Governor of Pennsylvania.

99
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:36,000
The topic of discussion that day remains unknown, but the President immediately returns to Washington,

100
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,000
where he calls an urgent meeting with the Director of the Office of Emergency Planning at the Pentagon.

101
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Could the recent spike in UFO sightings indicate something bigger and more threatening to come?

102
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:57,000
It's a disturbing thought. Since the Roswell incident in 1947, less than 20 years earlier,

103
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:02,000
UFO sightings seem to be increasing in numbers that are staggering.

104
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Many government insiders believe that unless a tight lid is clamped down on the UFO phenomena,

105
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,000
panic could quickly spread across the country.

106
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,000
I think it's rather obvious that the United States military and government would keep it a secret

107
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,000
if there was a conflict or connection between them and extraterrestrials.

108
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,000
I think the reason is simple. Fear. If we were to let the public know that we, meaning America,

109
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,000
the strongest military in the world is no longer number one, how many people would fear that?

110
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:41,000
Was Kexburg the site of a UFO crash? Did President Johnson fear alien contact?

111
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Back in Kexburg, a local radio reporter is preparing an in-depth story on the incident,

112
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
complete with eyewitness interviews.

113
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:58,000
But shortly before airtime, the station is allegedly paid a visit by the Men in Black.

114
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:04,000
The Men in Black are an unidentified group or an organization that would go around to

115
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
elect sightings of where there was some type of UFO report.

116
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:15,000
The Kexburg story eventually goes to air, but the story is a heavily censored version of the original.

117
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:22,000
Following the broadcast, the reporter refuses to discuss Kexburg ever again.

118
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Sometime later, he is tragically killed in a hit-and-run while on vacation in California.

119
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:34,000
The driver of the hit-and-run vehicle is never found.

120
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:42,000
What really happened to the reporter? Could he have been the target of a government cover-up?

121
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:47,000
But government attempts to maintain secrecy surrounding Kexburg prove unsuccessful.

122
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:54,000
Over the next few decades, witnesses will continue to break their silence at great personal risk

123
00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,000
to reveal the truth about what really happened that fateful night.

124
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Unsealed case file. The Kexburg Witnesses.

125
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:11,000
In December 1990, on the 25th anniversary of the Kexburg incident,

126
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:20,000
military personnel present the night of the crash come forward and confirm they were given orders to use deadly force.

127
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Other witnesses reveal that men wearing protective spacesuits bearing NASA logos were seen at the crash site,

128
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:36,000
handling a bell-shaped object. Some also claim that overseeing the operation were men in black suits.

129
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Kexburg resident Bill Bulabash was close enough that night to examine the crash site.

130
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:49,000
The object he saw was 12 feet long and at least 7 feet in diameter, in the shape of an acorn.

131
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:58,000
There were no visible doors, windows, or entry points of any kind. The metal was completely seamless.

132
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Perhaps the strangest feature is the writing covering the outside of the fallen object.

133
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Several witnesses, Bulabash among them, claim the outside was covered with a hieroglyphic style of pictures and symbols.

134
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Are the markings on the Kexburg object an alien language? If so, what could the symbols possibly mean?

135
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:29,000
Witnesses say the cargo's final destination was Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the home of Project Blue Book,

136
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:36,000
a government operation mandated to identify and monitor extraterrestrial activity.

137
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:44,000
The Blue Book team is alleged to have studied the Kexburg object, hoping to unravel its secrets.

138
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:52,000
1965. A fiery object falls to Earth outside the small American town of Kexburg, Pennsylvania.

139
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Authorities claim it is a meteor.

140
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Eye witnesses, however, report a bell-shaped UFO was removed from the site.

141
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:06,000
But this isn't the first bell-shaped flying object to appear in modern history.

142
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:15,000
Two decades earlier, a similar top-secret craft was reported being developed by the greatest evil the world has ever known.

143
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,000
Unsealed case file.

144
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Deglaka, the bell.

145
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:31,000
The piece of technology known as Deglaka, or the Nazi bell, was something that right up into the final days of the war, Hitler wanted to make it.

146
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:41,000
Deglaka is alleged to be the brainchild of Hans Kamler, a high-ranking Nazi engineer who oversaw many of Hitler's special construction tasks.

147
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:48,000
He's most infamous for building concentration camps and underground bunkers for secret weapons manufacturing.

148
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,000
His most valuable resource? Slave labor.

149
00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:03,000
Not surprising that at the peak of his career, he was also involved in a deadly V-2 rocket program that would claim thousands of lives.

150
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:08,000
But death camps and world domination were not the only interests he shared with Hitler.

151
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Some experts believe Kamler may have been working with materials of an extraterrestrial origin.

152
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Deglaka was also rumored to be experimenting in time travel.

153
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Imagine a time machine that could win a war before the war even started. That was the theory behind the Wonder Weapon, Deglaka.

154
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:39,000
If this machine was even capable of what the reports said it could do, then I have a hard time believing that it was running on any known earthly substance at the time.

155
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:49,000
Were the Nazis really working on a time machine? And was its inventor working with recovered alien technology?

156
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:56,000
In the end, Hitler is defeated, but the fate of his superweapon remains a mystery.

157
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Deglaka allegedly disappeared from the German mountains in the spring of 1945.

158
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:14,000
After the war, Nazi scientists are brought to the United States as part of Operation Paperclip to work on top secret military and space projects.

159
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Among them is Hans Kamler, father of Deglaka.

160
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:27,000
The reported similarities between Deglaka and the Kecksberg object are uncanny.

161
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:34,000
The designs for the Nazi bell showed that it was about 15 feet in height, shaped like a bell, hence its name, cylindrical in shape.

162
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Was the Kecksberg object a descendant of the Nazi time machine?

163
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:46,000
Did Hans Kamler trade the plans for Deglaka to the American government in return for his freedom?

164
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:54,000
Many experts believe Nazi scientists were attempting to create technology that the human race had never seen before.

165
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:03,000
The fate of the Kecksberg object remains unknown, along with the Nazi technology behind Deglaka.

166
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:09,000
But the timing of the incident in the 1960s presents another very plausible theory.

167
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:14,000
The Cold War was a huge barrier to the truth being brought forward.

168
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,000
For obvious reasons, I mean it was a pretty dangerous time.

169
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:22,000
So between that and the technology, the truth embargo is still in place.

170
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Russia and the United States are not only competing for supremacy on Earth, they are also racing to the moon.

171
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,000
Is the Kecksberg object a Soviet spacecraft?

172
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,000
December 9th, 1965.

173
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:45,000
The Russian spacecraft Cosmos 96 is launched on an incredibly ambitious mission.

174
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,000
It is designed to orbit and explore Venus.

175
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:59,000
The Cosmos mission is aborted in low Earth atmosphere as the craft loses control and begins a free fall back to Earth.

176
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Russia would need to inform the American government to avoid this being seen as an attack that could lead to nuclear war.

177
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:17,000
In that event, the secrecy surrounding the Kecksberg incidents could be the result of American desire to recover Soviet space technology.

178
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:25,000
The Russian Cyrillic alphabet could also explain the strange symbols most of the witnesses report on the object.

179
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:31,000
It's a compelling case that would explain a great deal except for one inconsistency.

180
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Cosmos 96 landed 13 hours earlier north of the Canadian border.

181
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:44,000
A fact that has been confirmed by US Space Command and NASA's chief orbital debris scientist, Nicholas Johnson.

182
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Seeking answers for the incident at Kecksberg, ufologists turned to NASA.

183
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:55,000
But all disclosure requests for information are met with resistance.

184
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:01,000
In fact, NASA claims the files on the incident do not exist.

185
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:10,000
The truth behind the Kecksberg incident has remained a mystery for almost 50 years.

186
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:19,000
But in 2007, NASA is taken to court in an attempt to force the administration to release its files on the incident.

187
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:28,000
But while under questioning, NASA spokesman David Steitz reveals that all of its Kecksberg records are missing.

188
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:34,000
In light of this new development, NASA considers the case closed.

189
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:40,000
What really happened that fateful night in Kecksberg in 1965?

190
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:46,000
One witness saw more than he should have and was told by a military officer to keep his mouth shut.

191
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,000
He did for over 25 years.

192
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:58,000
A laborer who made a delivery to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base saw a body lying on a workbench covered in a white sheet.

193
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:03,000
It appeared to be 4 to 5 feet tall, 80 pounds.

194
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:08,000
The witness describes a hand sticking out from under the sheet.

195
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000
And the skin was lizard-like.

196
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:19,000
Is the Kecksberg cover-up disturbing evidence of an alien visitor to planet Earth?

197
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,000
The public has a right to know.

198
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:32,000
This is Unsealed Alien Files, exposing the biggest secret on planet Earth.

199
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,000
