About UFOs: Investigating the Unknown
In 2021, the US government passed legislation mandating an official investigation into UFOs. This provocative series unspools the history leading up to this momentous change and reports on recent developments. It explores what the government made public versus what was kept hidden; citizens' push for transparency while confronting mass UFO sightings; Navy pilots' reports of unexplainable technology; new cutting-edge scientific efforts; and what the future might hold for this confounding mystery which is the focus of a deepening and expanding search for answers.

Mysterious flying objects. Claims of crashed alien spacecrafts. The U.S. has spent decades inquiring into the unknown-here's what they've learned: on.natgeo.com/3rUkW24

@marcgottlieb9579 9 месяцев назад

The timing of the recent disclosure had a reason of its own...There are a lot of anomalies in the sky currently..Thinggs that move around..The disclosure of something out there the government will never disclose..They claim they are looking for something but claim they haven't found..Looking for something gien many names over the years like Planet 9...The fact is found long ago and now in the very last stage of not only knocking at the door but a fly-by before the end of this year..The other shoe dropping to the alien agenda is distruction Planet Earth..

Was stationed at Grand Forks AFB, 1996-1998. Worked in a highly sensitive area and very unable to go reporting "UFO's". One morning while driving back to base from Northwood, ND. Driving on Highway 15 to 31st Street. Something came up from behind me. It was a moonless night but I could see the stars in my rearview mirror become obscured by something. I stopped, expecting some Close Encounters of the 3rd kind stuff. Looking out my driver's side window and up. Something at least 50' tall, maybe 200' across the back, shaped like a triangle. Flew over me, maybe 200' off the ground. Never made a noise. No engines. No air disturbance. Just my truck engine. Along the back were three exhausts, which had a faint red crackling appearance through a heavy blackening to reduce visibility. Like when you see lava with that blackened top and hints of red lava just barely being seen underneath? It moved steadily, quietly and was gone within 30 seconds. No super speed, just a constant speed that should have made noise. Believe my story or not, worries me none. I know I saw something very unexplainable and these current revelations only support my belief of what I saw.

I was 8 years old living in Los Lunas, new Mexico. I was staring at the stars one night, and saw what looked like a shooting star. Moving high in the sky, but extremely fast. But, then it stopped. It hung in the same place long enough for me to call for my mom and point it out. Then it shot off, the next day my mom brought me a newspaper article about how a weather balloon had been seen near our area. It seemed ridiculous to me, and I was 8.

I was stationed at an Air Force nuclear missile base in the early 70's. Our crew lived in these missile bases for 2-3 days a week on a rotating schedule. One night we had a report of one of the missile cops went missing in the field. I was at one launch control facility and off duty. My security police partner and I were ordered to go out and look for him. He was missing for about 2 hours. When he was finally found I was ordered back to my post. When I asked what happened? I was told none of your business and do not ask again. The airman in question was relieved of duty and within 2 weeks he disappeared from the base, re-assigned or discharged. The occurred 50 years ago. After this incident a bunch of us began seeing strange lights in the missile field on several occasions.

My good friend was with a security guard one winter evening in Northern N.J. keeping company while securing the Wanaque Reservoir, not far from Greenwood Lake and near the Hudson River. The lake was frozen. As they approached the fence to check in at a security point, they saw a low flying bright light come from across the lake and approach them. My friend said a craft just like a stereotypical "flying saucer" stopped about 500 ft. in front of them about 50 ft over the frozen surface. Suddenly a bright light came from the bottom of the object and burned a hole in the ice before it disappeared straight up. I guess they need water too. He said that while standing there, he felt "as if I was there, but then again, I felt like I wasn't there." The security guard got into the Jeep and drove away leaving my buddy alone by the lake. My friend died from Covid but I used to quiz him many times about this sighting. He would get angry with my if I joked with him or suggested he was making up a story.

The only ufo I could record was an orb like phenomenon. I was hanging out with my buddy and this giant glowing "orb" appeared in the sky, so we recorded it, it's on my channel & my most viewed video. I wish I could've had the 3 other sightings I've had on video. The first one was a group of 6 or 7 ships in an L formation, flying north to south in Memphis TN. They were like metalic spheres that had this illuminated cores, thats the best way I could describe it.. unlike anything I've ever even imagined. The 2nd time was a very quick, silent black triangle shaped craft. The last time was the orb I got on video, its a very interesting topic for me. I just wanna know why we see these craft & whats really going on, why is it all getting covered up?? We all deserve answers.

@frederickbaugher8361 5 месяцев назад

I have two possible theories for what happened at the US missile silos. 1. They were outside of the box military conducted stress tests to evaluate how well the men in the launch bunkers would react to a potential threat that they had not been trained for. The guards on duty that night were ordered to inform the men in the bunker that orbs were hovering over the base. I believe that is possible Because in an interview with one of the men in the bunker at Minot, He said that when he went up top to speak with the guards who saw the orb, they were reluctant to speak with him. He said they quickly climbed in a military vehicle and left the scene. 2. I suspect that regardless what planet they come from all military organizations devote most of their time and resources to training the troops. The United States armed forces spent over two years preparing for D-Day. My second theory is that the incident at Minot and the other US nuclear bases were ET training sorties. If a military unit is responsible for preventing earthlings from possibly nuking themselves into oblivion someday, The training would be intense and unyielding. There are no second chances for a failed mission of that nature.

@YouCannotDenyMe 2 месяца назад

Very interesting theories! I think your first theory is extremely compelling, but information about that kind of testing seems to have been kept from Congress, which makes it less plausible to me. I would expect stress testing to be valid and not be hidden or kept from cleared congressmen, but during one of the briefings with Congress, when the Pentagon was asked about these incidents, they responded that they didn't have data about those incidents, and wouldn't expand on whether data existed elsewhere. They also didn't offer to speak about it in the closed session. They just dismissed it with that response.

@frederickbaugher8361 2 месяца назад

@@YouCannotDenyMe I would assume that, if a military stress test of the nature I described in the comment occurred it would be classified in perpetuity. The reason being that the experiment does not end until the soldier dies. They would study him for years in order to measure the long-term effects that the test had on the soldiers psyche.

As a sceptic, I have one big issue with UFO sightings. We now live in a world where literally everyone walks around with a device in their pocket that possesses a high-resolution camera and direct access to the internet. Yet, most people who claim to have seen an UFO "forgot" to take pictures or make video recordings during their experience. And the few videos we do have all look as though they were recorded with a potato. On RU-vid, you can find the most random, unlikely events captured on camera, often in great quality. There exists sharp footage from the 911 attacks where eye witnesses pulled out a camera. That was more than 20 years ago when smartphones weren't even a thing. Yet, we can't get a single, high-resolution video recording of an extraterrestrial spacecraft? Doesn't that seem awfully convenient?

@seitanbeatsyourmeat666 2 месяца назад

@utherpendragon4227 2 месяца назад

My guess, is that it’s not a physical object reflecting light, but a spiritual manifestation, maybe inter dimensional in its nature, like fallen angels from the Bible stories. That’s what I believe anyway, so there could be times when it only wants that one person to see it, for whatever reasons they have…which I suspect are all bad for us.

Completely silent. Froze in place and watched it until it disappeared over the nearby tree line. Probably 5 mins total. There was no mistaking what I was looking at and I think about it regularly.

Look up LTAs (lighter than air) ships. Our military conducts regular exercises with them for backup communication systems and to transfer medical supplies between VA hospitals. These are unmanned but there are also companies working with them for commercial air travel purposes. They're largely hydrogen powered, but some are solar.

I had a nuclear war nightmare last night, after watching another documentary on the fallout from a full scale nuclear exchange between the US and Russia. The bombs were exploding in extreme slow motion, and I kept running for cover to get away from the flashes, which just kept getting brighter and hotter with each second, and running for more cover was the only escape. I woke up, but that feeling of terror didn't end. I'm glad that at least one species on planet Earth has some common sense on the topic of nuclear weapons. It's just too bad it's not our species.

@paladro 9 месяцев назад

how is it then, given all the security around nuclear facilities, not one camera or camera phone owning bystander has definitive proof? no hard evidence, like remains of craft or beings, claims of it yes, but no pictures, no video, just some outlandish claims... of the video clips produced, its usually edited clips, where is the rest of the footage? showing a snippet means there is more, so are they releasing these limited clips, because out of context and without full video, its easy to distort what you are seeing and make grandiose claims. now i personally believe intelligent life exists in the universe, beyond ourselves(very arrogant and myopic to think we are alone and special), but i also need proof, either with my own eyes(which admittedly can fail you and your mind can trick you to see things that aren't)... but, i also believe governments keep secrets through a variety of means, many of which would seem appalling to a rational mind, some grand 'ufo hoax' is exactly the kind of thing that would cover top secret rocket and aircraft testing nicely. as for so-called sightings in antiquity, many atmospheric phenomena, we barely grasp in the modern era could easily be interpreted as omens, gods or aliens. all my cynicim and skepticism aside, i do believe in 'aliens', its just i think our limited understanding on a great many things coupled with eons of religious propaganda, has done great harm in their attempts to co-opt these events for their own ends or even more disturbing, the 'aliens' aren't visiting, they are tending a farm, a petri dish, a zoo or anything else we might do to a less advanced intelligence.

@@paladro I can certainly understand and relate to your cynicism. My viewpoint was summarily altered with my own sighting. But this was pre-cell phone days and also there was no time to react. That being said, I would ask, though there have been many personal and mass sightings - some posted across various forums, Why would a superior intelligence want to contact our primitive species? ( except maybe for scientific study) I shudder to think that our species could ever reach another inhabited planet without somehow ruining it like we have already done to this planet. Not to overlook that we can't even get along as humans - imagine the pre conceptualized bigotry that we already would transport across space.

Right before the Hudson Valley Lights flew over the Yorktown Police stn in Spring of 1984, it flew right over my house. I called the whole family outside to the side porch. We all watched it fly over at around 300 ft above us. But after 5 - 10 seconds we all simultaneously turned & walked back inside without a word. Why? We could hear the whining hum of the ultralight engines. We could see individual planes shift slightly out of V formation from our close view directly to underneath. All flying colorful, non flashing illegal lights. None of us even discussed it immediately afterwards. I watched it continue to fly slowly southward out my brother's bedroom window afterward where it then flew over the police stn depicted in an old Unsolved Mysteries episode. Later in June 84, myself & multiple witnesses saw it flying in that 'O' formation with the one trailing light several miles West near the Hudson River from outside the front entrance of Yorktown High School after a performance. I remember telling others it was Ultralight Pilots Spoofing everybody. None of this should detract from the real UAP reports and testimony we're seeing today, however.

Each missile has individual triple redundancy. Which means there are three generators on every missile in case of failure. And they are also independent from each other so one missile isn't connected to other ones. These UFOs shut down entire flights of ten. In Ukraine a UFO hovering over a launch facility figured out the launch codes to a missile base and for 15 seconds their missiles where ready to launch.

@chasecreamer727 9 месяцев назад

That’s true, it is harder to tell airplanes and drones apart from UFOs. That’s when troubleshooting comes in separating aircraft and drone behavior to UFOs (especially some rocket launches). If an object that is stationary for a long time, flashing many colors all at once, is silent, and capable of physically defying speed and maneuverability, then it’s likely a UFO. And not a normal aircraft or drone.
