Top Secret UFO Projects: Declassified (2021) s01e06 Episode Script
After Disclosure
[indistinct radio chatter]
[narrator] In the light of the new facts
published about the UFO phenomenon,
the world is only a small step away from
accepting a hitherto concealed truth
that we are not alone in the Universe.
It may be just a matter of months before
the highest authorities have to look at
the available options to communicate this
momentous message.
It won't be easy.
For six thousand years,
the preeminent life-form in the
universe has been humanity.
But what will the world face after
disclosure of the truth about UFOs?
What will the investigations, which will
undoubtedly follow, uncover?
[Knapp] All the big questions.
The biggest of all
Who are they?
Where are they from?
Why are they here?
What's their interest in us?
No one I know has those answers.
But I think it's a noble
pursuit to try to figure out why,
because they clearly are
interested in us.
[Rojas] We haven't to my belief,
have any overt hostile
activity from any of these crafts.
So, they could be observing.
It could be that they're here
to help us evolve.
I think that there's numerous
possibilities.
[Dolan] What we can do is
judge their actions.
They are secretive.
They're covert.
They don't want to be known.
So that's something
that would make me wonder.
Why are they secretive?
[Knapp] They interact with humans
on multiple levels and they have
done so for centuries.
Do they want to help us?
Do they want to harvest us?
The big question is intent.
Who they are, why they're here,
why they stick around with us.
[indistinct radio chatter]
[narrator] With the release via
The New York Times
of the now well-known three
videos taken by the US military,
there has been a fundamental
shift in the approach
of US government agencies
to the UFO phenomenon.
In August 2020,
the United States Department of Defense
announced the creation of a task force
to analyze and understand the
nature and origins of
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.
[suspenseful music]
[narrator] Top Secret UFO Projects: Declassified.
After Disclosure.
[Knapp] They've been with us throughout
human history.
Recorded history, in different guises
on every continent,
in every culture throughout
human civilization,
they've been here in
different guises.
And I'm not sure we can call
them extraterrestrial.
Maybe we came from somewhere else.
We're extraterrestrials.
But they live here.
They've probably been monitoring
the planet,
at least checking in,
going back
Pick a number:
100,000, 200,000, half a million.
I personally believe that they've always
been here.
I do believe that they're ancient.
I believe that they protect the planet.
[narrator] In the event of confirmation
and official
recognition of the existence of
extraterrestrial intelligence,
historians have been faced with a
fundamental revision of many areas
of our history,
ancient and modern.
One of them concerns the
reinterpretation of the mythologies,
beliefs and faiths of indigenous peoples
the world over.
[Mahooty] My tribe is the Zuni tribe.
We believe that we were connected with the
extraterrestrials from the beginning of
what we call
The Beginning of the Fourth World.
The extraterrestrials are the ones that
are related to us.
Not only in where they came from,
but we also are aware that they gave us
the connection to the different
systems, like the star systems.
And they're actually our teachers.
[man chanting]
[narrator] The Hopi, Zuni, Cree, Lakota
and other Native American tribes of
North America have worshipped cosmic
beings for centuries.
For them, these are spiritual beings.
Ancestors who arrived
from different galaxies.
The Hopi call them Kachinas,
and dedicate their ceremonies to them in
underground chambers called Kiva.
The Lakota and the Cherokee
call them Star People,
while the Inuit call them Sky Gods.
Rosebud Indian Reservation,
South Dakota, USA.
In his celebrated book,
Black Elk: The Sacred Ways of a Lakota,
a shaman of the Oglala Lakota tribe called
Wallace Black Elk,
tells his remarkable story of
how a flying disk descended onto the open
plain in front of him during a spiritual
reverie known as a Vision Quest.
"It was concave in shape.
It was silent but that it lit and
luminesced like a neon light.
These little people emerged from it,
but each little group spoke a
different language.
They could read minds and I could read
their minds.
I could read them,
so there was silent communication.
You could read it, like when you read
silent symbols in a book.
So we were able to communicate,
so I welcomed them.
I said, 'Welcome, welcome.'"
They're actually our ancestors
because we took their DNA
and when they upgraded us.
American Indians believe that we all are
connected with the Star people as our
distant relatives.
Although we were on the planet, we were
uh, took their teachings
and they upgraded us through their efforts
using their particular
probably the DNA upgrades.
And so we're
In a long run, we're part alien.
[narrator] The Lakota are by no means the
only Native American tribe
to have reported such encounters
and to believe in the Star Gods and their
relationship to humanity.
In some folklore related to the culture of
the Zuni and Cree tribes,
extraterrestrial beings appear not only
as teachers and ancient ancestors,
but also as those who take humans back
with them into the cosmos.
We can see from this the recent
phenomenon of alien abductions
can be connected to the ancient past.
October 11th, 1973.
Pascagoula, Mississippi, USA.
Nineteen-year-old Calvin Parker
and 40-year-old Charles Hickson
shared a passion for fishing.
And on that faithful October day,
they were fishing from the pier of an old
abandoned shipyard.
After a while, they were disturbed
by bluish flashes of light
coming from behind them,
which Calvin took to be a police car.
But soon they found out
that it was something else.
As they looked up, frozen in surprise,
hovering above them was an elliptical
vessel the size of a football stadium.
The men were transfixed with fear as
three robotic creatures descended
silently to them and abducted them,
taking them back to their vessel
where they were examined.
[Parker]
Well, I was just amazed about, um
where that light was coming from.
Well, I was scared, too,
before we got there,
but, you know, I couldn't move for some
reason and found out later on that he had
injected us with some kind of a
a shot or a drug or something.
They found this out at the hospital.
They laid me on a table, examination
table, at about a 16 to 45 degree angle,
and I was looking straight up
at the ceiling.
[narrator] The creatures who transported
them to the ship seemed artificial.
Their somewhat jerky movements are more
indicative of artificial intelligence.
But then another member of the crew
appears on the scene.
A being who moves differently and looks
different approaches Calvin Parker.
To this day, Parker is convinced that this
was the female of the species.
[Parker] She had normal looking hands
and her two middle fingers
was the only thing off.
They was a little bit longer than
the rest of her hand.
She had a normal
looking face.
Eyes, nose, ears.
She'd come up and she grabbed me by the
cheek and kind of pinched my cheek
like somebody's grandmother
would rub their cheek.
And it didn't have no feelings
in her fingers.
No warmth or nothing.
I couldn't feel anything.
Then she took her left hand
and she took me by the jaw
and pushed my jaw down
and took her other two fingers
and run down my throat
and tried to come up
behind that little thing
that hangs down at the
back of your throat.
My nose started bleeding.
I was choking.
I couldn't breathe.
And it, you know,
it was getting scary by then
because it was being abducted
is what it was.
She pulled it out
mentally.
She told me,
she said, uh
"We don't mean you no harm."
Just like she was sitting there talking,
except it was in a female's voice
and it was in English.
She backed up and then
she made a little mumbling noise
and she summons this big ugly creature
that brought me in there.
And he'd come by
and he grabbed me by the arm
and that's when I felt another
injection going into my arm.
And I felt, you know,
pretty well at ease then.
So, he took me back out to the riverbank.
[narrator] Parker's account, confirmed by
the testimony of Charles Hickson,
suggests that in the vast majority of
alien abductions,
it is a matter of scientific interest
rather than an intention to harm
the abductees.
Understandably, the abductees are
terrified by these confrontations,
much as wild animals react
when confronted by humans.
Soon after their encounter,
Parker and Hickson
were picked up by the local sheriff
and taken downtown for questioning
about their remarkable
and terrifying experience.
[Ryder] Took 'em down there and put them
in a room with a
with a voice-activated mic, and it's
hidden in the desk,
to see what they'd say.
Me and the other
investigator got up and
left to let them talk
to see if they would go and say,
"Well, we got 'em fooled," and all.
They didn't.
They were really concerned.
The boy kept telling Charles,
"Don't talk to them, them peoples
gonna come back and get us."
[recorded conversation playing]
Just by listening to the recording
in the police department and
they were just talking to each other,
they were terrified.
And then listening to Calvin speaking,
and I've never heard him speak before,
he's just a very normal person.
And, you know, this extraordinary thing
happened to him and nobody asks for it.
I do believe that their
case is very credible.
[narrator] A number of theories
have already been put forward as to why
extraterrestrial civilizations might
find us interesting.
Why would alien beings be willing to risk
detection and violate the unwritten rule
of non-interference in human affairs,
to appear before us, when they could so
easily influence human affairs
from behind-the-scenes?
I think perhaps there are
some species that are very worried
about what we're doing on
this planet now,
but there are others that
want to help us clean it up.
Earth is the Disneyland of the universe.
We're very unique.
And the diversity,
and the beauty of this planet
is known throughout the universe
as a place that, you know,
you should have on your bucket
list to visit and to examine and research.
We have cases where they're
call them alien editorials,
where they will take an
abductee on a craft and tell them,
"You need to take care of your planet."
[narrator] And the more people that come
forward and provide evidence of
close encounters of the third kind,
the more convincing the testimonies are.
One such case is that of the pupils of the
Ariel School in Zimbabwe, southern Africa,
a little over twenty-five years ago.
September 16th, 1994.
Ariel School, Ruwa, Zimbabwe.
[narrator]
On that September day,
62 children were
playing in the school yard,
about 22 kilometers from Harare,
the capital of Zimbabwe.
What happens next will be remembered by
all of them for a long time,
and for some of them, it will be more
profound than others.
[narrator] According to later testimonies,
the aliens telepathically pass on
information about dangerous
developments on our planet,
about the threat of the end
of life on Earth.
Some children remember
being invited into the unknown vessel.
The encounter lasts no
more than ten minutes.
When the children report their
experience to the school staff,
the adults immediately check
the scene of the incident.
But the UFO is gone.
Vanished.
The children then describe
the encounter in detail.
To this day, the audiovisual record
testifies to a momentous experience;
an encounter witnessed by several of the
children, all of whom were remarkably
consistent in their descriptions
of what they'd seen.
What the witnesses claimed, the method for
communication was telepathic.
The object the beings would make eye
contact and there was a transfer
of information with using their eyes.
[narrator] With such a weight of evidence,
respected Harvard psychiatrist,
Dr. John E. Mack,
as well as other scientists,
concluded that the incident in Zimbabwe
was an authentic close
encounter of the third kind.
It is perhaps significant that
this encounter occurred at a time
when the environmental lobby in the region
was trying to draw attention
to the damage being done to planet Earth
by man's draining of natural resources.
[narrator] Another significant factor
which has emerged in UFO
and alien encounters
is that many of them have occurred close
to military installations and bases.
Could there be a more sinister motivation
for alien interest in our planet?
[Kloetzke] They don't know what it is.
It has to be a threat.
They don't consider it hostile yet because
it's only an engagement.
But of course,
they're going to see that as a threat.
We don't know what
their intentions are.
We don't even know where they come from.
[Rojas] We haven't to my belief,
have any overt hostile activity
from any of these crafts,
so they could be observing.
It could be that they're
here to help us evolve.
Maybe if the Roswell crash did happen,
that they were seeding us with technology
so we could develop it.
I think that there's, uh,
numerous possibilities.
[Fleischer] Of course the government will
always want to say,
"Hey, this is the situation
and here's the solution."
You know?
Because they want to be the ones
who are elected.
You make yourself really attackable if
you step up yourself and say,
"We have unidentified flying objects
flying around in our areas
and we cannot do anything about it."
You need someone else
to release those materials.
[narrator] Despite the potential threat,
there is no desire on the part of
the general public to stop or
prevent alien encounters.
On balance, they want them to continue,
as research by Dr. Rey Hernandez
and his team has shown.
[Hernandez] For many of these beings,
once they notice that you're scared,
they phase out. Okay.
So, then we asked the question:
Would you stop your
ET contact if you could?
Well, 84% said, "No, keep it coming."
"Keep it coming."
Okay.
Eighty-four percent.
So that was the first experience,
that these experiences were
overwhelmingly positive.
In the beginning, 30% viewed it as
negative, but then over time,
the more experiences you have,
they become positive.
Now, the second major finding is that
these experiences were
overwhelmingly not physical.
They were paranormal.
[narrator] This positive perception and
growing public clamor for answers
has been fueled in part by privately
funded organizations
such as the To The Stars Academy
fronted by Tom DeLonge
and former US government
adviser, Luis Elizondo
which is pushing for
government's acknowledgement of the likely
existence of extraterrestrial activity
in our solar system.
[DeLonge] Have you ever had the
desire to look outward?
To the edge of what is known and unknown?
We have the chance to do something
revolutionary.
Something that I think has never been
attempted before.
What if I told you I found
a group of like-minded people
who held senior positions
in the US government?
From the CIA to the
Department of Defense,
to the most advanced
aerospace engineering groups
within our national
security establishment.
People who have life skills in collecting
and decoding elusive information.
And they all wanted
to do something ambitious.
Something that could help change the
conversation about who we are
through an unparalleled search for answers
that can propel humanity forward.
[Dolan] When they made their first public
announcement in October 2017,
they made a very powerful statement,
which was
the US military is continuing to
investigate these UFOs.
That was a very significant and new thing
to hear at the time.
[Bassett] They've worked for different
agencies but, not surprisingly,
they have not revealed any of the details
of how this came together
and we're not going to know probably
until after disclosure.
There is an inevitability of the end of
UFO secrecy and we are now seeing an
attempt to end that secrecy, but under
very controlled circumstances.
So, I think they're being forced to start
making some disclosure.
Not because they want to,
but because they're forced to.
[narrator] One important thing has
clearly emerged
from the so far short existence of
the To The Stars Academy:
The government is not in any way casting
doubt on the actions or
motivations of the organization.
The fact that the UFO or UAP phenomenon is
being presented by the Academy
as a potential threat evidently suits
the US government.
[Dolan] We're trying to protect
people from the dangerous aliens.
All right. Now that's a certain amount of
spin and we've gotta be very careful
before we believe that in its entirety.
It doesn't mean that they're wrong.
It doesn't mean that they're right.
It means they have their own perspective
and we should expect them to have a
perspective, right?
If you want to move something, it has to
be related with National Security.
It has to be something that
puts the nation in danger so that you can
justify to spend money on it.
I think we have to look this situation
very carefully in the future and see how
this is going to evolve.
Just the fact that there's
someone has something that we don't have
and we don't even understand,
must be a threat to the
National Security of the United States.
That's their thinking.
[narrator] The COVID-19 pandemic has
dominated the world in '20 and '21.
Despite this, the To The Stars Academy is
not letting up pressure on politicians
to take the phenomenon seriously and
acknowledge it publicly.
But the more that is disclosed,
the more questions are raised.
[Fleischer] What would be the advantage
for the government or the military
to have the public knowing about this?
In fact, if you want to have
a real advantage,
you need no one to know about this.
It would be even better to research this
kind of technology in secret.
[Lovelace] These beings,
wherever they come from,
and I believe there are
many different species,
they are 500 rungs minimum up the
evolutionary ladder.
They are so far above us
that I don't think they'll ever sit down
with us and communicate with us
on a one-on-one basis
like I'd like to have.
[narrator] The reluctance of the
US government to make public
pronouncements on its research of UFOs
means that conjecture and
speculation continue to run wild
and makes it difficult to understand
exactly why UFO encounters seem to
proliferate at particular
locations on planet Earth,
and to particular peoples.
An example is the story
from the area of Pisco, Peru
where an investigative journalist,
Chase Kloetzke, happened to be filming.
January 2015 near Pisco, Peru,
South America.
Like the Natives of North America, the
aboriginals of South America do not regard
unidentified flying objects as anything
out of the ordinary.
They have been encountering the
Star People and Star Gods for centuries.
In January 2015,
Kloetzke was filming a news
report near Pisco
about the discovery of
previously unknown pyramids.
Her team was accompanied by the
mayor of Pisco, Juan Mendoza Uribe,
who took Chase to a dried-out lake,
known as a hotspot for UFO encounters.
They told me that there
used to be a grand lake there
but the UFOs kept coming
down and they steal all their water.
And he's really upset about
it because, you know, the farmers need it.
They need it for agriculture and their,
their cattle and their animals.
[narrator] Chase saw that the mayor was
deadly serious and realized that he was
genuinely hoping, as an investigative
journalist, she might help him get to
the bottom of the matter
and find a solution.
I just looked at him like
And then when I told him, you know,
that I was an investigator
and that's not really
what I do, he asked me,
"Well, you came down here
to talk about UFOs."
"Yes, sir, I did."
"Do you not have them
in the United States?"
He was so baffled by my job
as an investigator because they already
know they're real, you know?
They don't need that
physical evidence 'cause they,
they've seen it or, you know,
they've experienced a lot of this.
[narrator] It was clear to Chase that
while she couldn't solve the problem,
it was only polite to try to lend a
helping hand.
It occurred to her that she could take
samples from the dry lake and try to
analyze them to find out
how the water had been removed,
but the mayor wanted a more
immediate solution.
[Kloetzke] He was so confused
and he says,
"No, I want you to help me tell them to
stop taking our water."
It just struck me that he
was so open with this
UFO came down and just took their water.
And he was angry about that
and he wanted someone to communicate that.
[narrator] Ufologists the world over
recount similar stories.
So consistent are these accounts,
that for many
the question of the existence of
alien life is no longer in any doubt.
The bigger, more pressing question is
how we communicate with them.
Disclosure of the secrets concerning the
activities of aliens on Earth
and declassification by the military and
intelligence agencies about UFO encounters
will undoubtedly be a revolutionary
turning point in human history.
Although it may unleash profound questions
about the nature of human existence
and belief systems, it may also
provide a source of new thinking on
fundamental global
problems of conservation,
social inequality
and advances in
cutting edge technologies.
But if such a turning point does come to
pass, are we ready for it?
I think that it's going to be a very big
shock to a lot of people.
Particularly if they're very
entrenched in the,
the paradigm of today.
Even with their
particularly with religion.
[Masters] It could cause political
instability
instantly if there was this entity that
was far more advanced than us.
All of our struggles,
our arms race,
trying to keep up with
what everyone else is doing.
All of those things now sit
below a technology that
exists in our future.
[Bassett] And they might even give us some
technologies.
Not weapons technologies,
but I think the plan
is healing technologies,
which they are the master of
and master of genetics.
Technologies that would allow us in short
order to eliminate a mass
a major proportion
of all of our diseases.
[Rodwell] Hidden technologies that could
have helped us.
We wouldn't be polluting
the planet as we are doing
because of the technology they've got.
That we didn't need to pollute
the planet.
Healing procedures,
tech healing technology
would have been available.
People are going to be very angry when
they realize what's happened.
And that's part of the reason they're
reluctant to release this, I think,
because of the backlash that they're
going to get from society.
[Masters] So I think at some
point we will have
a broad awareness of who they are,
what they're doing, why they're doing it.
[narrator] For some, the very fact that
UFOs are unidentifiable means they
therefore pose a potential threat and
should be confronted rather than welcomed.
On the other hand, there is also a strong
opposing view based on long-term studies
of the phenomenon that
arrive at the opposite premise:
That the aliens do not pose a threat.
On the contrary, if they do exist,
they are undoubtedly many thousand
years ahead of us and contact with them
will accelerate human evolution
and human consciousness.
What they are doing is preparing us
through higher consciousness.
To look at the way that we
live in a different way.
So, it isn't about they're going to come
down and say, "Well, we're taking over."
"We're going to you know,
kill anyone who disagrees with us."
That is not the way that they work.
The way that they work is
through human consciousness
and raising our awareness to
a point where we want to be
a more peaceful, loving,
caring society.
So I think if consciousness
isn't bound by space time,
there could be some aspect of that
as it relates to this phenomenon,
that there could be some communication
across different points in time.
Information exchange amongst those
that are more open to it or aware of it
or have those, those abilities.
A lot of UFO sightings seem to be
connected with our own consciousness,
our own mind.
And I will never be able to
get rid of that idea.
I think that there is a connection.
I don't know exactly
what that connection is,
but I believe that there
is something there.
[Fleischer] It's this huge consciousness
that we're talking about.
Is this possibly the universe itself?
Is this God and we're all part of it?
Those are very profound questions.
And I think that once the UFO subject has
been freed by this ridicule factor,
scientists and philosophers will be,
be able to start to
tackle those questions.
[narrator] One of the remarkable aspects
of the incident with US Navy pilots
in the Pacific waters near
Carrier Strike Group 11 in 2004
was the mysterious decoding of
secret information.
The event is more accurately described by
then Air Intercept Controller, Kevin Day.
[Day] I got the impression they could read
our minds because what happened during
that intercept, at one point, this object
went from where commander Fravor's
intercept point was, back over to the
combat air patrol station,
we call it a cap station,
[snaps fingers] like that.
And how did it know to go
to that point in the sky?
The cap station, every all the
everyone, all the personnel in the
strike group know about it,
but it's secret.
How would this object know where that was?
It went exactly to that point in
just under a second.
It was maybe 60 miles away.
But it was my impression that they could
read our intentions.
They somehow they
knew what our intentions were.
And I think that's the
key to preventing hostilities.
When you encounter these things,
have the right frame of mind about it.
Don't be hostile to them.
Leave them alone, you know.
[narrator] Acknowledgement of
the potential for extrasensory perception,
telepathy
and other abilities would constitute
a radical turn-around
by the scientific world.
For the moment, however,
this world is unwilling to listen
to accept that these abilities
may have emerged as a result of
extraterrestrial encounters.
They prefer to think of it as something
more naturally occurring from within
planet Earth.
[D'Antonio] Every animal on this planet
has one characteristic that's undeniable
and that is
curiosity.
It's built in through
the deoxyribonucleic acid.
The DNA within each animal.
Built in.
So because DNA is likely a
template that the universe provides
based on the carbon atom,
I think that curiosity will exist amongst
all the other creatures in the cosmos.
And so, they would also want to look for
other beings like themselves.
Well, my research
with over three and a half thousand
individuals and what have you,
what I'm understanding is
that we have their DNA.
That we are, if you like, an intelligently
designed species with perhaps as many
as 12 different species of nonhuman
intelligences with their DNA.
So, the reason that they're so interested
in us is because we're part of them.
What I believe now because of our
technology and what's happening with it,
where we can be,
but we could destroy our planet.
[Kloetzke] I honestly would not expect
alien DNA to be much different than ours
because what we're finding in the universe
is all the materials are the same.
So we believe the universe is
kind of made up of the same stuff.
At least our universe is.
[Bassett] This is a very old galaxy.
There have been
civilizations in this galaxy
for millions and millions
of years.
Interstellar craft filled with ETs
have been moving around and interacting in
this galaxy and the number one thing
they're interested in is life.
And they go to these biospheres and they
monitor them and they check
and they take DNA or work with DNA.
So what that means
is for millions of years
DNA from biospheres has been
transferred and maneuvered around the
entire galaxy.
[narrator] If one accepts this premise of
common DNA between inter-planetary beings,
much as humans and animals
share the vast majority of their DNA,
the number and nature of
UFO and alien encounters
becomes much more
understandable and credible.
As does the fact that they have increased
in number in recent years.
Whether one accepts the many
eyewitness accounts or not,
what cannot be denied
is that the witnesses
themselves are sincere
in their beliefs about what they saw.
Summer 2017.
Šumava Mountains,
Southern Bohemia, Czech Republic.
On a sunny summer day in 2017,
a group of about 15 people
set out for a walk in the Šumava region
in the southern part of
the Czech Republic.
As they approached a meadow,
everyone was surprised that all the
cows from the vast pastures
had assembled in one
place next to the road.
I was standing here and I said a sentence
before we saw the UFO.
It was fast and intuitive and
I said, "It's obvious."
"If there are a lot of cows huddling
together in one place,
there must be also
a UFO around."
I don't know what I am
saying in this moment,
and my head goes in this
direction and there was a UFO.
A black one.
So I saw this big black object.
It looks like diamonds with a
maybe seven meters high.
[Drozd] But the shapes,
I can not see exact line.
It was, you know, straight.
I could see, like, you know, that the
lines were not very straight and clear.
It was not far away from us.
Let's say, 15 meters.
No noise.
It goes slowly up, then right,
and it disappears behind the trees.
There was no time to
take a picture of it.
[narrator] To this day,
none of the eyewitnesses
have any explanation for what they saw.
It was unlike any of them
had ever seen before
and this is the first time
they have spoken about it publicly.
I don't tell this story to
my friends or to other people,
because I don't believe in UFO.
I was very quiet inside.
And it was very
It was not strange feeling.
It was very good for me.
[Vachler] It was very strange because
you saw something what
doesn't appear each day.
[Drozd] And I didn't even say to my
friends that I've seen it, you know.
So that's a little surprising.
Because I don't want to look stupid.
I don't want to tell them I've seen UFO
and, you know
No. I just keep it to myself.
I felt it was not from the Earth.
There was no, like, engine noise.
There was no smoke from the engine.
So, you know, how could it be
from Earth?
But communication can also take place in
altered state of consciousness,
on a different vibration level.
I experienced it.
They showed me why they are here.
It's an important form of communication
which the Indians, Natives, shamans
and other people used and still do.
Let's say that, according to them,
we've been given a little extra time.
More time to change ourselves.
Unless we change radically, they will
intervene one day to save themselves, too.
And I am not speaking about them,
I'm speaking also about us.
About animals, about nature,
about everything.
Because we are really
close to destroy everything.
[heart beating]
The ETs are making sure
we don't destroy ourselves,
meaning the whole planet,
which they consider exceptional
and directly dependent on the universe.
It's up to us whether they intervene to
rescue the planet or not.
So it's a question for us,
not for them.
So it's our life.
So let's change it or they try maybe to
save us and they try to save the universe.
We should think about this.
Why they are here and why they are
interested in these things.
[narrator] As we are now on the verge of
government disclosure
of UFO monitoring programs,
what will be the next stage of exploration
of the UFO phenomenon?
Will governments truly allow scrutiny of
such sensitive and secretive programs?
Or will they continue to use these
programs to cover-up the development
of advanced military systems?
Systems which continue to
threaten earth's existence.
What is not in doubt
is that the next phase of UFO research
is likely to be more important and
ground-breaking than ever before.
With our planet facing an
unparalleled array of threats,
we can no longer afford to
ignore the existence of UFOs.
There is simply too much at stake.
I personally feel that we are
dealing with something that deserves
scientific and academic attention.
When, in fact, in my view,
the military and intelligence
agencies in the United States
have known for a very long
time exactly what they're dealing with.
So what we need to be doing is
There's something that's very important.
It's really important.
And it represents an intelligence and a
technology vastly beyond
anything that we are
aware of here on earth.
And we damn well better
be talking about it.
[Masters] I feel like we're
in a different age.
I feel like disclosure is happening.
I think there's a sense of
that among most people
that have studied this
phenomenon for awhile.
I hope it continues and I hope to see
where it goes.
But it does feel like something's
different now compared to the past.
I think there's a lot of knowledge
we could potentially get
and it goes beyond just technology.
Of course, there are
benefits to technology,
but one of the issues with technology
is that it's also very dangerous.
[Fleischer] The government doesn't have
any interest in disclosing
what they know about
extraterrestrial beings
because, first of all, I'm not even sure
if they know a lot about it.
And secondly, it would undermine
their work as a government
because people would start to
ask interesting questions.
You know, somebody who makes films and as
a journalist, I'm sure that that idea of
"What are we going to learn tomorrow
that we don't know today?"
And you can see it.
It's right there.
There's going to be something next
and I'm excited to see what that is.
[soft music playing]
[narrator] In the light of the new facts
published about the UFO phenomenon,
the world is only a small step away from
accepting a hitherto concealed truth
that we are not alone in the Universe.
It may be just a matter of months before
the highest authorities have to look at
the available options to communicate this
momentous message.
It won't be easy.
For six thousand years,
the preeminent life-form in the
universe has been humanity.
But what will the world face after
disclosure of the truth about UFOs?
What will the investigations, which will
undoubtedly follow, uncover?
[Knapp] All the big questions.
The biggest of all
Who are they?
Where are they from?
Why are they here?
What's their interest in us?
No one I know has those answers.
But I think it's a noble
pursuit to try to figure out why,
because they clearly are
interested in us.
[Rojas] We haven't to my belief,
have any overt hostile
activity from any of these crafts.
So, they could be observing.
It could be that they're here
to help us evolve.
I think that there's numerous
possibilities.
[Dolan] What we can do is
judge their actions.
They are secretive.
They're covert.
They don't want to be known.
So that's something
that would make me wonder.
Why are they secretive?
[Knapp] They interact with humans
on multiple levels and they have
done so for centuries.
Do they want to help us?
Do they want to harvest us?
The big question is intent.
Who they are, why they're here,
why they stick around with us.
[indistinct radio chatter]
[narrator] With the release via
The New York Times
of the now well-known three
videos taken by the US military,
there has been a fundamental
shift in the approach
of US government agencies
to the UFO phenomenon.
In August 2020,
the United States Department of Defense
announced the creation of a task force
to analyze and understand the
nature and origins of
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.
[suspenseful music]
[narrator] Top Secret UFO Projects: Declassified.
After Disclosure.
[Knapp] They've been with us throughout
human history.
Recorded history, in different guises
on every continent,
in every culture throughout
human civilization,
they've been here in
different guises.
And I'm not sure we can call
them extraterrestrial.
Maybe we came from somewhere else.
We're extraterrestrials.
But they live here.
They've probably been monitoring
the planet,
at least checking in,
going back
Pick a number:
100,000, 200,000, half a million.
I personally believe that they've always
been here.
I do believe that they're ancient.
I believe that they protect the planet.
[narrator] In the event of confirmation
and official
recognition of the existence of
extraterrestrial intelligence,
historians have been faced with a
fundamental revision of many areas
of our history,
ancient and modern.
One of them concerns the
reinterpretation of the mythologies,
beliefs and faiths of indigenous peoples
the world over.
[Mahooty] My tribe is the Zuni tribe.
We believe that we were connected with the
extraterrestrials from the beginning of
what we call
The Beginning of the Fourth World.
The extraterrestrials are the ones that
are related to us.
Not only in where they came from,
but we also are aware that they gave us
the connection to the different
systems, like the star systems.
And they're actually our teachers.
[man chanting]
[narrator] The Hopi, Zuni, Cree, Lakota
and other Native American tribes of
North America have worshipped cosmic
beings for centuries.
For them, these are spiritual beings.
Ancestors who arrived
from different galaxies.
The Hopi call them Kachinas,
and dedicate their ceremonies to them in
underground chambers called Kiva.
The Lakota and the Cherokee
call them Star People,
while the Inuit call them Sky Gods.
Rosebud Indian Reservation,
South Dakota, USA.
In his celebrated book,
Black Elk: The Sacred Ways of a Lakota,
a shaman of the Oglala Lakota tribe called
Wallace Black Elk,
tells his remarkable story of
how a flying disk descended onto the open
plain in front of him during a spiritual
reverie known as a Vision Quest.
"It was concave in shape.
It was silent but that it lit and
luminesced like a neon light.
These little people emerged from it,
but each little group spoke a
different language.
They could read minds and I could read
their minds.
I could read them,
so there was silent communication.
You could read it, like when you read
silent symbols in a book.
So we were able to communicate,
so I welcomed them.
I said, 'Welcome, welcome.'"
They're actually our ancestors
because we took their DNA
and when they upgraded us.
American Indians believe that we all are
connected with the Star people as our
distant relatives.
Although we were on the planet, we were
uh, took their teachings
and they upgraded us through their efforts
using their particular
probably the DNA upgrades.
And so we're
In a long run, we're part alien.
[narrator] The Lakota are by no means the
only Native American tribe
to have reported such encounters
and to believe in the Star Gods and their
relationship to humanity.
In some folklore related to the culture of
the Zuni and Cree tribes,
extraterrestrial beings appear not only
as teachers and ancient ancestors,
but also as those who take humans back
with them into the cosmos.
We can see from this the recent
phenomenon of alien abductions
can be connected to the ancient past.
October 11th, 1973.
Pascagoula, Mississippi, USA.
Nineteen-year-old Calvin Parker
and 40-year-old Charles Hickson
shared a passion for fishing.
And on that faithful October day,
they were fishing from the pier of an old
abandoned shipyard.
After a while, they were disturbed
by bluish flashes of light
coming from behind them,
which Calvin took to be a police car.
But soon they found out
that it was something else.
As they looked up, frozen in surprise,
hovering above them was an elliptical
vessel the size of a football stadium.
The men were transfixed with fear as
three robotic creatures descended
silently to them and abducted them,
taking them back to their vessel
where they were examined.
[Parker]
Well, I was just amazed about, um
where that light was coming from.
Well, I was scared, too,
before we got there,
but, you know, I couldn't move for some
reason and found out later on that he had
injected us with some kind of a
a shot or a drug or something.
They found this out at the hospital.
They laid me on a table, examination
table, at about a 16 to 45 degree angle,
and I was looking straight up
at the ceiling.
[narrator] The creatures who transported
them to the ship seemed artificial.
Their somewhat jerky movements are more
indicative of artificial intelligence.
But then another member of the crew
appears on the scene.
A being who moves differently and looks
different approaches Calvin Parker.
To this day, Parker is convinced that this
was the female of the species.
[Parker] She had normal looking hands
and her two middle fingers
was the only thing off.
They was a little bit longer than
the rest of her hand.
She had a normal
looking face.
Eyes, nose, ears.
She'd come up and she grabbed me by the
cheek and kind of pinched my cheek
like somebody's grandmother
would rub their cheek.
And it didn't have no feelings
in her fingers.
No warmth or nothing.
I couldn't feel anything.
Then she took her left hand
and she took me by the jaw
and pushed my jaw down
and took her other two fingers
and run down my throat
and tried to come up
behind that little thing
that hangs down at the
back of your throat.
My nose started bleeding.
I was choking.
I couldn't breathe.
And it, you know,
it was getting scary by then
because it was being abducted
is what it was.
She pulled it out
mentally.
She told me,
she said, uh
"We don't mean you no harm."
Just like she was sitting there talking,
except it was in a female's voice
and it was in English.
She backed up and then
she made a little mumbling noise
and she summons this big ugly creature
that brought me in there.
And he'd come by
and he grabbed me by the arm
and that's when I felt another
injection going into my arm.
And I felt, you know,
pretty well at ease then.
So, he took me back out to the riverbank.
[narrator] Parker's account, confirmed by
the testimony of Charles Hickson,
suggests that in the vast majority of
alien abductions,
it is a matter of scientific interest
rather than an intention to harm
the abductees.
Understandably, the abductees are
terrified by these confrontations,
much as wild animals react
when confronted by humans.
Soon after their encounter,
Parker and Hickson
were picked up by the local sheriff
and taken downtown for questioning
about their remarkable
and terrifying experience.
[Ryder] Took 'em down there and put them
in a room with a
with a voice-activated mic, and it's
hidden in the desk,
to see what they'd say.
Me and the other
investigator got up and
left to let them talk
to see if they would go and say,
"Well, we got 'em fooled," and all.
They didn't.
They were really concerned.
The boy kept telling Charles,
"Don't talk to them, them peoples
gonna come back and get us."
[recorded conversation playing]
Just by listening to the recording
in the police department and
they were just talking to each other,
they were terrified.
And then listening to Calvin speaking,
and I've never heard him speak before,
he's just a very normal person.
And, you know, this extraordinary thing
happened to him and nobody asks for it.
I do believe that their
case is very credible.
[narrator] A number of theories
have already been put forward as to why
extraterrestrial civilizations might
find us interesting.
Why would alien beings be willing to risk
detection and violate the unwritten rule
of non-interference in human affairs,
to appear before us, when they could so
easily influence human affairs
from behind-the-scenes?
I think perhaps there are
some species that are very worried
about what we're doing on
this planet now,
but there are others that
want to help us clean it up.
Earth is the Disneyland of the universe.
We're very unique.
And the diversity,
and the beauty of this planet
is known throughout the universe
as a place that, you know,
you should have on your bucket
list to visit and to examine and research.
We have cases where they're
call them alien editorials,
where they will take an
abductee on a craft and tell them,
"You need to take care of your planet."
[narrator] And the more people that come
forward and provide evidence of
close encounters of the third kind,
the more convincing the testimonies are.
One such case is that of the pupils of the
Ariel School in Zimbabwe, southern Africa,
a little over twenty-five years ago.
September 16th, 1994.
Ariel School, Ruwa, Zimbabwe.
[narrator]
On that September day,
62 children were
playing in the school yard,
about 22 kilometers from Harare,
the capital of Zimbabwe.
What happens next will be remembered by
all of them for a long time,
and for some of them, it will be more
profound than others.
[narrator] According to later testimonies,
the aliens telepathically pass on
information about dangerous
developments on our planet,
about the threat of the end
of life on Earth.
Some children remember
being invited into the unknown vessel.
The encounter lasts no
more than ten minutes.
When the children report their
experience to the school staff,
the adults immediately check
the scene of the incident.
But the UFO is gone.
Vanished.
The children then describe
the encounter in detail.
To this day, the audiovisual record
testifies to a momentous experience;
an encounter witnessed by several of the
children, all of whom were remarkably
consistent in their descriptions
of what they'd seen.
What the witnesses claimed, the method for
communication was telepathic.
The object the beings would make eye
contact and there was a transfer
of information with using their eyes.
[narrator] With such a weight of evidence,
respected Harvard psychiatrist,
Dr. John E. Mack,
as well as other scientists,
concluded that the incident in Zimbabwe
was an authentic close
encounter of the third kind.
It is perhaps significant that
this encounter occurred at a time
when the environmental lobby in the region
was trying to draw attention
to the damage being done to planet Earth
by man's draining of natural resources.
[narrator] Another significant factor
which has emerged in UFO
and alien encounters
is that many of them have occurred close
to military installations and bases.
Could there be a more sinister motivation
for alien interest in our planet?
[Kloetzke] They don't know what it is.
It has to be a threat.
They don't consider it hostile yet because
it's only an engagement.
But of course,
they're going to see that as a threat.
We don't know what
their intentions are.
We don't even know where they come from.
[Rojas] We haven't to my belief,
have any overt hostile activity
from any of these crafts,
so they could be observing.
It could be that they're
here to help us evolve.
Maybe if the Roswell crash did happen,
that they were seeding us with technology
so we could develop it.
I think that there's, uh,
numerous possibilities.
[Fleischer] Of course the government will
always want to say,
"Hey, this is the situation
and here's the solution."
You know?
Because they want to be the ones
who are elected.
You make yourself really attackable if
you step up yourself and say,
"We have unidentified flying objects
flying around in our areas
and we cannot do anything about it."
You need someone else
to release those materials.
[narrator] Despite the potential threat,
there is no desire on the part of
the general public to stop or
prevent alien encounters.
On balance, they want them to continue,
as research by Dr. Rey Hernandez
and his team has shown.
[Hernandez] For many of these beings,
once they notice that you're scared,
they phase out. Okay.
So, then we asked the question:
Would you stop your
ET contact if you could?
Well, 84% said, "No, keep it coming."
"Keep it coming."
Okay.
Eighty-four percent.
So that was the first experience,
that these experiences were
overwhelmingly positive.
In the beginning, 30% viewed it as
negative, but then over time,
the more experiences you have,
they become positive.
Now, the second major finding is that
these experiences were
overwhelmingly not physical.
They were paranormal.
[narrator] This positive perception and
growing public clamor for answers
has been fueled in part by privately
funded organizations
such as the To The Stars Academy
fronted by Tom DeLonge
and former US government
adviser, Luis Elizondo
which is pushing for
government's acknowledgement of the likely
existence of extraterrestrial activity
in our solar system.
[DeLonge] Have you ever had the
desire to look outward?
To the edge of what is known and unknown?
We have the chance to do something
revolutionary.
Something that I think has never been
attempted before.
What if I told you I found
a group of like-minded people
who held senior positions
in the US government?
From the CIA to the
Department of Defense,
to the most advanced
aerospace engineering groups
within our national
security establishment.
People who have life skills in collecting
and decoding elusive information.
And they all wanted
to do something ambitious.
Something that could help change the
conversation about who we are
through an unparalleled search for answers
that can propel humanity forward.
[Dolan] When they made their first public
announcement in October 2017,
they made a very powerful statement,
which was
the US military is continuing to
investigate these UFOs.
That was a very significant and new thing
to hear at the time.
[Bassett] They've worked for different
agencies but, not surprisingly,
they have not revealed any of the details
of how this came together
and we're not going to know probably
until after disclosure.
There is an inevitability of the end of
UFO secrecy and we are now seeing an
attempt to end that secrecy, but under
very controlled circumstances.
So, I think they're being forced to start
making some disclosure.
Not because they want to,
but because they're forced to.
[narrator] One important thing has
clearly emerged
from the so far short existence of
the To The Stars Academy:
The government is not in any way casting
doubt on the actions or
motivations of the organization.
The fact that the UFO or UAP phenomenon is
being presented by the Academy
as a potential threat evidently suits
the US government.
[Dolan] We're trying to protect
people from the dangerous aliens.
All right. Now that's a certain amount of
spin and we've gotta be very careful
before we believe that in its entirety.
It doesn't mean that they're wrong.
It doesn't mean that they're right.
It means they have their own perspective
and we should expect them to have a
perspective, right?
If you want to move something, it has to
be related with National Security.
It has to be something that
puts the nation in danger so that you can
justify to spend money on it.
I think we have to look this situation
very carefully in the future and see how
this is going to evolve.
Just the fact that there's
someone has something that we don't have
and we don't even understand,
must be a threat to the
National Security of the United States.
That's their thinking.
[narrator] The COVID-19 pandemic has
dominated the world in '20 and '21.
Despite this, the To The Stars Academy is
not letting up pressure on politicians
to take the phenomenon seriously and
acknowledge it publicly.
But the more that is disclosed,
the more questions are raised.
[Fleischer] What would be the advantage
for the government or the military
to have the public knowing about this?
In fact, if you want to have
a real advantage,
you need no one to know about this.
It would be even better to research this
kind of technology in secret.
[Lovelace] These beings,
wherever they come from,
and I believe there are
many different species,
they are 500 rungs minimum up the
evolutionary ladder.
They are so far above us
that I don't think they'll ever sit down
with us and communicate with us
on a one-on-one basis
like I'd like to have.
[narrator] The reluctance of the
US government to make public
pronouncements on its research of UFOs
means that conjecture and
speculation continue to run wild
and makes it difficult to understand
exactly why UFO encounters seem to
proliferate at particular
locations on planet Earth,
and to particular peoples.
An example is the story
from the area of Pisco, Peru
where an investigative journalist,
Chase Kloetzke, happened to be filming.
January 2015 near Pisco, Peru,
South America.
Like the Natives of North America, the
aboriginals of South America do not regard
unidentified flying objects as anything
out of the ordinary.
They have been encountering the
Star People and Star Gods for centuries.
In January 2015,
Kloetzke was filming a news
report near Pisco
about the discovery of
previously unknown pyramids.
Her team was accompanied by the
mayor of Pisco, Juan Mendoza Uribe,
who took Chase to a dried-out lake,
known as a hotspot for UFO encounters.
They told me that there
used to be a grand lake there
but the UFOs kept coming
down and they steal all their water.
And he's really upset about
it because, you know, the farmers need it.
They need it for agriculture and their,
their cattle and their animals.
[narrator] Chase saw that the mayor was
deadly serious and realized that he was
genuinely hoping, as an investigative
journalist, she might help him get to
the bottom of the matter
and find a solution.
I just looked at him like
And then when I told him, you know,
that I was an investigator
and that's not really
what I do, he asked me,
"Well, you came down here
to talk about UFOs."
"Yes, sir, I did."
"Do you not have them
in the United States?"
He was so baffled by my job
as an investigator because they already
know they're real, you know?
They don't need that
physical evidence 'cause they,
they've seen it or, you know,
they've experienced a lot of this.
[narrator] It was clear to Chase that
while she couldn't solve the problem,
it was only polite to try to lend a
helping hand.
It occurred to her that she could take
samples from the dry lake and try to
analyze them to find out
how the water had been removed,
but the mayor wanted a more
immediate solution.
[Kloetzke] He was so confused
and he says,
"No, I want you to help me tell them to
stop taking our water."
It just struck me that he
was so open with this
UFO came down and just took their water.
And he was angry about that
and he wanted someone to communicate that.
[narrator] Ufologists the world over
recount similar stories.
So consistent are these accounts,
that for many
the question of the existence of
alien life is no longer in any doubt.
The bigger, more pressing question is
how we communicate with them.
Disclosure of the secrets concerning the
activities of aliens on Earth
and declassification by the military and
intelligence agencies about UFO encounters
will undoubtedly be a revolutionary
turning point in human history.
Although it may unleash profound questions
about the nature of human existence
and belief systems, it may also
provide a source of new thinking on
fundamental global
problems of conservation,
social inequality
and advances in
cutting edge technologies.
But if such a turning point does come to
pass, are we ready for it?
I think that it's going to be a very big
shock to a lot of people.
Particularly if they're very
entrenched in the,
the paradigm of today.
Even with their
particularly with religion.
[Masters] It could cause political
instability
instantly if there was this entity that
was far more advanced than us.
All of our struggles,
our arms race,
trying to keep up with
what everyone else is doing.
All of those things now sit
below a technology that
exists in our future.
[Bassett] And they might even give us some
technologies.
Not weapons technologies,
but I think the plan
is healing technologies,
which they are the master of
and master of genetics.
Technologies that would allow us in short
order to eliminate a mass
a major proportion
of all of our diseases.
[Rodwell] Hidden technologies that could
have helped us.
We wouldn't be polluting
the planet as we are doing
because of the technology they've got.
That we didn't need to pollute
the planet.
Healing procedures,
tech healing technology
would have been available.
People are going to be very angry when
they realize what's happened.
And that's part of the reason they're
reluctant to release this, I think,
because of the backlash that they're
going to get from society.
[Masters] So I think at some
point we will have
a broad awareness of who they are,
what they're doing, why they're doing it.
[narrator] For some, the very fact that
UFOs are unidentifiable means they
therefore pose a potential threat and
should be confronted rather than welcomed.
On the other hand, there is also a strong
opposing view based on long-term studies
of the phenomenon that
arrive at the opposite premise:
That the aliens do not pose a threat.
On the contrary, if they do exist,
they are undoubtedly many thousand
years ahead of us and contact with them
will accelerate human evolution
and human consciousness.
What they are doing is preparing us
through higher consciousness.
To look at the way that we
live in a different way.
So, it isn't about they're going to come
down and say, "Well, we're taking over."
"We're going to you know,
kill anyone who disagrees with us."
That is not the way that they work.
The way that they work is
through human consciousness
and raising our awareness to
a point where we want to be
a more peaceful, loving,
caring society.
So I think if consciousness
isn't bound by space time,
there could be some aspect of that
as it relates to this phenomenon,
that there could be some communication
across different points in time.
Information exchange amongst those
that are more open to it or aware of it
or have those, those abilities.
A lot of UFO sightings seem to be
connected with our own consciousness,
our own mind.
And I will never be able to
get rid of that idea.
I think that there is a connection.
I don't know exactly
what that connection is,
but I believe that there
is something there.
[Fleischer] It's this huge consciousness
that we're talking about.
Is this possibly the universe itself?
Is this God and we're all part of it?
Those are very profound questions.
And I think that once the UFO subject has
been freed by this ridicule factor,
scientists and philosophers will be,
be able to start to
tackle those questions.
[narrator] One of the remarkable aspects
of the incident with US Navy pilots
in the Pacific waters near
Carrier Strike Group 11 in 2004
was the mysterious decoding of
secret information.
The event is more accurately described by
then Air Intercept Controller, Kevin Day.
[Day] I got the impression they could read
our minds because what happened during
that intercept, at one point, this object
went from where commander Fravor's
intercept point was, back over to the
combat air patrol station,
we call it a cap station,
[snaps fingers] like that.
And how did it know to go
to that point in the sky?
The cap station, every all the
everyone, all the personnel in the
strike group know about it,
but it's secret.
How would this object know where that was?
It went exactly to that point in
just under a second.
It was maybe 60 miles away.
But it was my impression that they could
read our intentions.
They somehow they
knew what our intentions were.
And I think that's the
key to preventing hostilities.
When you encounter these things,
have the right frame of mind about it.
Don't be hostile to them.
Leave them alone, you know.
[narrator] Acknowledgement of
the potential for extrasensory perception,
telepathy
and other abilities would constitute
a radical turn-around
by the scientific world.
For the moment, however,
this world is unwilling to listen
to accept that these abilities
may have emerged as a result of
extraterrestrial encounters.
They prefer to think of it as something
more naturally occurring from within
planet Earth.
[D'Antonio] Every animal on this planet
has one characteristic that's undeniable
and that is
curiosity.
It's built in through
the deoxyribonucleic acid.
The DNA within each animal.
Built in.
So because DNA is likely a
template that the universe provides
based on the carbon atom,
I think that curiosity will exist amongst
all the other creatures in the cosmos.
And so, they would also want to look for
other beings like themselves.
Well, my research
with over three and a half thousand
individuals and what have you,
what I'm understanding is
that we have their DNA.
That we are, if you like, an intelligently
designed species with perhaps as many
as 12 different species of nonhuman
intelligences with their DNA.
So, the reason that they're so interested
in us is because we're part of them.
What I believe now because of our
technology and what's happening with it,
where we can be,
but we could destroy our planet.
[Kloetzke] I honestly would not expect
alien DNA to be much different than ours
because what we're finding in the universe
is all the materials are the same.
So we believe the universe is
kind of made up of the same stuff.
At least our universe is.
[Bassett] This is a very old galaxy.
There have been
civilizations in this galaxy
for millions and millions
of years.
Interstellar craft filled with ETs
have been moving around and interacting in
this galaxy and the number one thing
they're interested in is life.
And they go to these biospheres and they
monitor them and they check
and they take DNA or work with DNA.
So what that means
is for millions of years
DNA from biospheres has been
transferred and maneuvered around the
entire galaxy.
[narrator] If one accepts this premise of
common DNA between inter-planetary beings,
much as humans and animals
share the vast majority of their DNA,
the number and nature of
UFO and alien encounters
becomes much more
understandable and credible.
As does the fact that they have increased
in number in recent years.
Whether one accepts the many
eyewitness accounts or not,
what cannot be denied
is that the witnesses
themselves are sincere
in their beliefs about what they saw.
Summer 2017.
Šumava Mountains,
Southern Bohemia, Czech Republic.
On a sunny summer day in 2017,
a group of about 15 people
set out for a walk in the Šumava region
in the southern part of
the Czech Republic.
As they approached a meadow,
everyone was surprised that all the
cows from the vast pastures
had assembled in one
place next to the road.
I was standing here and I said a sentence
before we saw the UFO.
It was fast and intuitive and
I said, "It's obvious."
"If there are a lot of cows huddling
together in one place,
there must be also
a UFO around."
I don't know what I am
saying in this moment,
and my head goes in this
direction and there was a UFO.
A black one.
So I saw this big black object.
It looks like diamonds with a
maybe seven meters high.
[Drozd] But the shapes,
I can not see exact line.
It was, you know, straight.
I could see, like, you know, that the
lines were not very straight and clear.
It was not far away from us.
Let's say, 15 meters.
No noise.
It goes slowly up, then right,
and it disappears behind the trees.
There was no time to
take a picture of it.
[narrator] To this day,
none of the eyewitnesses
have any explanation for what they saw.
It was unlike any of them
had ever seen before
and this is the first time
they have spoken about it publicly.
I don't tell this story to
my friends or to other people,
because I don't believe in UFO.
I was very quiet inside.
And it was very
It was not strange feeling.
It was very good for me.
[Vachler] It was very strange because
you saw something what
doesn't appear each day.
[Drozd] And I didn't even say to my
friends that I've seen it, you know.
So that's a little surprising.
Because I don't want to look stupid.
I don't want to tell them I've seen UFO
and, you know
No. I just keep it to myself.
I felt it was not from the Earth.
There was no, like, engine noise.
There was no smoke from the engine.
So, you know, how could it be
from Earth?
But communication can also take place in
altered state of consciousness,
on a different vibration level.
I experienced it.
They showed me why they are here.
It's an important form of communication
which the Indians, Natives, shamans
and other people used and still do.
Let's say that, according to them,
we've been given a little extra time.
More time to change ourselves.
Unless we change radically, they will
intervene one day to save themselves, too.
And I am not speaking about them,
I'm speaking also about us.
About animals, about nature,
about everything.
Because we are really
close to destroy everything.
[heart beating]
The ETs are making sure
we don't destroy ourselves,
meaning the whole planet,
which they consider exceptional
and directly dependent on the universe.
It's up to us whether they intervene to
rescue the planet or not.
So it's a question for us,
not for them.
So it's our life.
So let's change it or they try maybe to
save us and they try to save the universe.
We should think about this.
Why they are here and why they are
interested in these things.
[narrator] As we are now on the verge of
government disclosure
of UFO monitoring programs,
what will be the next stage of exploration
of the UFO phenomenon?
Will governments truly allow scrutiny of
such sensitive and secretive programs?
Or will they continue to use these
programs to cover-up the development
of advanced military systems?
Systems which continue to
threaten earth's existence.
What is not in doubt
is that the next phase of UFO research
is likely to be more important and
ground-breaking than ever before.
With our planet facing an
unparalleled array of threats,
we can no longer afford to
ignore the existence of UFOs.
There is simply too much at stake.
I personally feel that we are
dealing with something that deserves
scientific and academic attention.
When, in fact, in my view,
the military and intelligence
agencies in the United States
have known for a very long
time exactly what they're dealing with.
So what we need to be doing is
There's something that's very important.
It's really important.
And it represents an intelligence and a
technology vastly beyond
anything that we are
aware of here on earth.
And we damn well better
be talking about it.
[Masters] I feel like we're
in a different age.
I feel like disclosure is happening.
I think there's a sense of
that among most people
that have studied this
phenomenon for awhile.
I hope it continues and I hope to see
where it goes.
But it does feel like something's
different now compared to the past.
I think there's a lot of knowledge
we could potentially get
and it goes beyond just technology.
Of course, there are
benefits to technology,
but one of the issues with technology
is that it's also very dangerous.
[Fleischer] The government doesn't have
any interest in disclosing
what they know about
extraterrestrial beings
because, first of all, I'm not even sure
if they know a lot about it.
And secondly, it would undermine
their work as a government
because people would start to
ask interesting questions.
You know, somebody who makes films and as
a journalist, I'm sure that that idea of
"What are we going to learn tomorrow
that we don't know today?"
And you can see it.
It's right there.
There's going to be something next
and I'm excited to see what that is.
