1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000
Every day, UFOs are spotted in skies all over the world.

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,000
But of all the planets in the known galaxy, why have they come to Earth?

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000
What do the aliens want?

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Many would like to believe they are here to make peaceful contact,

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:26,000
but some experts are convinced they have come on a much darker mission.

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Earth is rich in natural resources, such as water and minerals.

7
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:39,000
If that's what brought Europeans to the Americas, it may also be what attracts an alien race.

8
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Are aliens here to seize Earth's riches?

9
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000
And how far does their mission go?

10
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,000
Join us as we investigate a possible alien plot to plunder the Earth's natural resources.

11
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,000
On Unsealed, Alien Files

12
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:35,000
The Zhekwan Satellite Launch Center in Mongolia, June 16, 2012.

13
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:41,000
The Chinese space agency launches its first woman astronaut into orbit.

14
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,000
But the Earth's orbit is by now a well-worn path,

15
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000
so China has announced much bigger ambitions for its space program,

16
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000
intending to launch a manned mission to the moon by the year 2020.

17
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Some space experts believe the nation intends to establish permanent mining operations

18
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000
on Earth's natural satellite.

19
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,000
But many in the UFO community fear that when the Chinese land,

20
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:14,000
they will quickly find others have already claimed the moon's riches for their own.

21
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:21,000
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other thing,

22
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
not because they are easy, but because they are hard.

23
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:33,000
1961. President John F. Kennedy declares America's intention to send a man to the moon.

24
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:39,000
On the surface, it's a bold political move to keep pace with the Soviet Union in the space race.

25
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:45,000
But according to some, behind closed doors, the United States was quietly engaged

26
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,000
in a second race with another rival.

27
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,000
One infinitely more powerful than the Soviets.

28
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,000
From the early 1950s, national security people in the United States

29
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000
were aware that there were alien bases on the moon.

30
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Part of the space race's goals was to basically get up to the moon

31
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000
to be able to find out exactly what was up there

32
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,000
and to find out what kind of technological capabilities existed.

33
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,000
But why would extraterrestrials establish a base on a small, lifeless world

34
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000
with the Earth so close?

35
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,000
The moon is bursting with unguarded mineral riches for the taking.

36
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000
But locked within its rocks and sand is an invisible substance

37
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,000
that could soon change life on Earth forever.

38
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Helium-3 is a byproduct of the massive nuclear fusion reaction

39
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,000
that we know as the burning of the sun.

40
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,000
The invisible substance is released into space,

41
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,000
where it is scattered by solar winds across our planetary neighborhood.

42
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000
The Earth's atmosphere prevents Helium-3 from reaching its surface.

43
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
But the moon has no atmosphere.

44
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:06,000
For billions of years, its surface has been bombarded by a constant stream of Helium-3.

45
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Many scientists believe the mysterious substance could one day be used

46
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,000
in nuclear fusion reactors to produce virtually limitless amounts of clean energy,

47
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000
unlike the fission reactors of today.

48
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,000
They also believe fusion reactors fueled by Helium-3

49
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000
will one day power our journeys to the stars.

50
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:34,000
The question is, have extraterrestrials already perfected this interstellar technology?

51
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:41,000
And if they have, does that make the moon a prime location for an alien mind?

52
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Unsealed case file, the missing moon tapes.

53
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,000
The Apollo 11 mission that fulfilled Kennedy's dream

54
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,000
was captured on video and broadcast across the world.

55
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000
But for two minutes, that transmission failed.

56
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,000
During Neil Armstrong's transmission back to Earth, there's a missing two minutes in that.

57
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,000
And people have speculated as to what is in those two minutes.

58
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Now there have been some unofficial radio communications that have been circulated

59
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:21,000
saying that they saw two UFOs flying over a cratering along with other structures that they saw on the moon.

60
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,000
NASA blamed the transmission on an overheated camera.

61
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,000
NASA engineers made backup copies of the mission tapes.

62
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:37,000
But in a 2009 report, the agency admitted that mysteriously, they never saw the backup tapes again.

63
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Did Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin catch a glimpse of an alien mind?

64
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Are extraterrestrials using the moon as an interstellar fueling station?

65
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:55,000
And will our eventual return to the moon spark an interplanetary war

66
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,000
for control of its Helium-3?

67
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Many experts fear that aliens have come to Earth to plunder its natural resources.

68
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Evidence has revealed they may be mining the moon for Helium-3 to fuel their interstellar spacecraft.

69
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:21,000
But according to other reports, their quest for power doesn't stop at the moon.

70
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Carn City, Texas, 1971.

71
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,000
The night shift is underway deep inside Conoco's open-pit uranium mine.

72
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:39,000
Suddenly, a blinding light appears over the pit, accompanied by a high-pitched hissing noise.

73
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Minutes pass, and the light dims enough for witnesses to make out its source.

74
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
A massive UFO.

75
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:54,000
It rises slowly and then speeds out of sight.

76
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,000
At first, no one believes the six eyewitnesses.

77
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:06,000
But soon after, it is discovered that all of the uranium ore within a 250-foot radius of the sighting

78
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:14,000
has been transformed into a white, chalky substance and robbed of its radioactive properties.

79
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Why did the Carn City UFO target a uranium mine?

80
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,000
What did the white light do to the uranium deposits to neutralize their radioactivity?

81
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Was it absorbed for fuel?

82
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:35,000
The Carn City incident is not the first time aliens have taken interest in Earth's radioactive materials.

83
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Four years earlier, another incident would strike at the very heart of America's national security.

84
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Unsealed case file. The Maumstrom missile incident.

85
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:54,000
1967. Maumstrom Air Force Base, Montana.

86
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,000
The installation is home to a fleet of intercontinental ballistic missiles.

87
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,000
It's part of America's nuclear defense against the Soviet Union.

88
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000
The weapons are armed and ready to launch at a moment's notice.

89
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Captain Robert Salas was on duty the morning of March 16th.

90
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:21,000
He gave his eyewitness account of the events of that day at the 2013 Citizen Hearing on Disclosure.

91
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:31,000
We were on duty inside the Oscar Launch Control Center, a concrete capsule located about 60 feet underground.

92
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:36,000
We had operational control of over 10 man-to-man nuclear missiles.

93
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:43,000
It is important for you to note that the man in control for these missiles was entirely located within the capsule.

94
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:50,000
There was absolutely no need to affect any of the missile systems from outside the capsule.

95
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Two guards see a shooting star moving in a bizarre zigzag pattern across the sky.

96
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Seconds later, another appears.

97
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:06,000
The two men watch in disbelief as the stars begin speeding toward the base.

98
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Alarmed, they contact Captain Salas. What they see next makes their blood run cold.

99
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,000
It was a large oval shaped object covering above the front gate.

100
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:26,000
It was a red pulsing, lighted object approximately 30-40 feet down there.

101
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Salas' mind is racing. What is the craft hovering above the base? Is it a new Soviet weapon?

102
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Just then, he witnesses the seemingly impossible.

103
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000
As I started to perform my command, our missiles began to shut down.

104
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000
We lost the word status in all 10 missiles. All the subject was above our history.

105
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Salas fears the worst. Is this happening at other missile bases? Is America now defenseless?

106
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:07,000
But then, just as suddenly as the UFO appeared, it disappears into the distance.

107
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:14,000
The ensuing military investigation will raise more questions than answers.

108
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:23,000
A declassified report on the incident states that rumors of unidentified flying objects around the area were disproven.

109
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,000
An assertion refuted by Salas.

110
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:32,000
But it also states there were no unusual discrepancies in the missile control circuits.

111
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:38,000
According to the report, the system shut down for no reason whatsoever.

112
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:46,000
How could 10 of the deadliest weapons in the world be deactivated for no apparent reason?

113
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,000
It was announced that there was a pewter glitch.

114
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:01,000
Now, I'm very worried about that. I'm not sure I believe that.

115
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:08,000
But we do have witnesses that have come forward, both Soviet and Air Force, that said they saw an object in the sky.

116
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Time to shut it down. This has still been investigated, but these incidents are still going on.

117
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Salas believes the danger is real and very possibly beyond our control.

118
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:27,000
These objects know in great detail how our missiles operate.

119
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,000
I think it shut down our missiles and anything like that.

120
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:41,000
They approve of that. If you release that information to public, what do you say then about what kind of guns do we have against these things?

121
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:52,000
What brought UFOs to an American nuclear missile base and later a Texas uranium mine, where it sapped the minerals' radioactivity?

122
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:58,000
Are the two events connected? Did extraterrestrials discover the power of uranium at monstrum,

123
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:03,000
only to later devise a means of using it for their own purposes?

124
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Have the Earth's uranium deposits become a ready source of energy for UFOs?

125
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,000
And what else do they want?

126
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:24,000
Evidence has revealed that aliens may be here to plunder our most precious natural resources.

127
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:33,000
The Earth is rich in oxygen and liquid water, scarcely occurring elsewhere in the solar system or the rest of the known universe.

128
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000
But the Earth is home to something even more rare.

129
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:43,000
According to some experts, it may in fact be the most precious resource in the galaxy.

130
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:55,000
1961. Frank Drake is a radio astronomer scanning the galaxy for signals that might indicate an intelligent civilization.

131
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:03,000
He devises an equation to estimate the number of civilizations existing throughout the Milky Way galaxy.

132
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:10,000
The equation takes into account seven factors, including the number of stars that have planets,

133
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:18,000
the number of planets that support intelligent life, and chillingly, the length of time an intelligent civilization lasts

134
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:23,000
before it is destroyed by natural causes or destroys itself.

135
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,000
It's known as Drake's equation.

136
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:44,000
In 1980, renowned astronomer Carl Sagan used Drake's equation to estimate there may be as few as 10 technologically advanced civilizations in the Milky Way at any given time.

137
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Given the estimated 300 billion star systems in the Milky Way spread out over 100,000 light years,

138
00:13:52,000 --> 00:14:01,000
that would make intelligent life by far the scarcest natural resource in the galaxy and perhaps even the universe.

139
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Civilizations cannot survive without a collective intelligence that is constantly growing and evolving.

140
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Is it possible that aliens have come to Earth to harvest human intelligence, to add to their own?

141
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Unsealed case file.

142
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,000
Ted Davenport.

143
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Alamogordo, New Mexico, 1975.

144
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:37,000
16-year-old Ted Davenport sets out on an ill-advised solo backpacking trip into the mountains.

145
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,000
He feels compelled to do so by an indescribable force.

146
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Along the way, Davenport has a constant feeling that he is being watched.

147
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,000
At night, he feels compelled to leave his tent.

148
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:59,000
Outside, he is astonished to see a group of small, humanoid beings.

149
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
He then blacks out.

150
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:10,000
The next morning, Davenport awakens beside his smoldering campfire with no recollection of the night before.

151
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:19,000
He has a painful headache and an odd knot on his skull next to his left ear, but is otherwise in good condition.

152
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Five years later, Davenport is in the Navy.

153
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,000
He is badly injured on duty and sent for emergency medical treatment.

154
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,000
An MRI reveals a strange metallic implant in his brain.

155
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Davenport claims to have been abducted multiple times since the implant's discovery.

156
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:44,000
Doctors will refuse to remove it, despite many opportunities to do so.

157
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Davenport claims that aliens use the implant to control not only his brain,

158
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,000
but the brains of the doctors who treat him as well.

159
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:02,000
A further scan in 2001 reveals the implant still present.

160
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:10,000
Ted Davenport is just one of hundreds of reported abductees who claim to have had their brains operated on by aliens.

161
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,000
And some surgeries are more invasive than others.

162
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Many of the abductees will say that they put something up the nose with an instrument,

163
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000
and they always describe this cracking sound that they hear.

164
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Well, if you look up the nasal cavity to the base of the brain, there's a bone called the ethmoid.

165
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:35,000
And there's two thin little plates, those are called the ethmoid plates.

166
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
And if you puncture one of those plates, you're right at the base of the brain.

167
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Why are aliens placing implants in human brains?

168
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Are they attempting to scan our brains to study what we know to add to their body of knowledge?

169
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:55,000
Or are they here for samples of the brain itself to be integrated into their own physiology?

170
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:00,000
And could there be something even more sinister at work?

171
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,000
Every year, thousands go missing without a trace.

172
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Could some be victims of alien abduction?

173
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,000
And if so, what is their fate?

174
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,000
Are their brains being harvested to ensure the survival of an alien race?

175
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:26,000
Is the Earth an intelligence farm for beings from another world?

176
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,000
Are aliens harvesting human intelligence?

177
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,000
And if they are, how long has this been happening?

178
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,000
We rise and we fall.

179
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,000
You know, this civilization seems to be about 12,000 years old,

180
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,000
but there are older civilizations that have left things behind.

181
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,000
You have to consider the possibility that this is not the first time we've been on this planet.

182
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:58,000
Many experts believe that aliens helped plant the seeds of our current civilization.

183
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:04,000
Is it possible they did so in order to harvest humans in the future?

184
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:11,000
And is the present downfall of planet Earth a warning sign that it's about to happen again?

185
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:20,000
This is Unsealed Alien Files, exposing the biggest secret on planet Earth.
