So, right underneath our feet
there are tunnels and facilities?
Miles, absolutely miles of tunnels.
It really is like something out of a James Bond movie.
NARRATOR: Could a secret base in England
hold evidence of extraterrestrial visitation?
NICK POPE: If there was anywhere in the United Kingdom,
any secret facility
where crashed UFO debris would have been brought,
would've been right here.
NARRATOR: Is the British government
in possession of an alien spacecraft?
POPE: The more I looked into these claims,
the more I realized, "Wait a minute,
there's something going on here."
NARRATOR: And did they even develop one of their own?
GIORGIO A. TSOUKALOS: I had about five minutes,
and then a police car showed up and he said, "Well,
I think it's time for you to leave."
âȘ âȘ
NARRATOR: London, England.
2007.
The British Ministry of Defence, or MOD,
makes a startling announcement.
They are releasing the entirety of their UFO files
to the National Archives of England.
ANDREW RUSSELL: My belief is that the MOD's motive
was to have people stop asking them questions.
They could get away from all these difficult
Freedom of Information Act requests
that people were making.
And they framed it in a way
that it was all about cost cutting.
But in reality, it was almost as if they just didn't want
anything to do with the subject anymore.
I still believe they take a very active interest in the subject,
but they don't want to be seen publicly to take that interest.
NARRATOR: After a rollout that took more than a decade,
it came to light that the Ministry of Defence
had accumulated over 60,000 documents
pertaining to UFO encounters.
But researchers sorting through the archives
were able to determine that 18 key files were missing.
RUSSELL: There were a number of very famous cases
where people have taken some really good photos,
some really good film imagery that the MOD can't now find.
Large parts of their files were seemingly destroyed.
And it seems they have a very good,
uh, history on losing really important bits of information.
NARRATOR: After a request was submitted,
Ministry of Defence officials located the missing files.
POPE: Each file, by the way,
contains upward of maybe a hundred, 200 documents.
So, we're talking thousands of documents.
They sent those files to the National Archives
and everyone was expecting an imminent release.
But in an unprecedented move,
the Ministry of Defence then recalled the files.
Now, I've never heard of this happening before.
To date, these 18 files remain under lock and key.
So, something very mysterious is going on.
NARRATOR: Why would the British Ministry of Defence
send UFO files to the National Archives
and then suddenly recall them without explanation?
Some government insiders have suggested
that the files were moved for safekeeping
while another even more secure facility
was being prepared.
When the National Archives returned the files
to the British government,
they were spirited away to an undisclosed location.
There are those who believe that location
is a former Royal Air Force base
in the southwest county of Wiltshire,
called Rudloe Manor,
a site that the Ministry of Defence
used to perform UFO investigations
dating back to the 1940s.
On the surface, it appears to be nothing more
than a quaint English manor house.
But deep beneath this structure
lie an astounding 2.2 million square feet
of vast caverns divided into many smaller chambers.
These underground quarries were excavated in the 19th century
to mine Bath stone,
a type of limestone used to build the nearby city of Bath
and several other English cities.
One century later, in 1939,
England was drawn into World War II
and the British Royal Air Force
took over the depleted quarries,
transforming them into an underground aircraft factory.
At the end of the war, many such facilities
were returned to civilian control,
but Rudloe Manor and its over two million square feet
of secret tunnels and chambers were never surrendered.
For years, it was home to a group
called the Provost and Security Services.
They're kind of like the James Bonds
of the British Royal Air Force.
They do espionage investigations,
counterintelligence programs,
things like that, even terrorism investigations.
But back in the 1990s and certainly going back
to the 1950s,
the Provost and Security Services
were heavily involved in UFO investigations.
Now, for years, the Air Force and the Ministry of Defence
denied that any UFO investigations
were going on at Rudloe Manor.
Then, a document got released
and it showed that actually, yes,
UFO investigations had been done from Rudloe Manor.
And the staff there
had been working hand in glove with those of us
in the headquarters building in London.
NARRATOR: Shortly before the Ministry of Defence
released their UFO files in 2007,
they announced that Rudloe Manor
was no longer in use by the military.
But if that's true, why are the grounds
surrounded by chainâlink fences,
monitored by security cameras,
and even protected by guard dogs?
To find the answers, in January of 2017,
ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos
traveled to the protected boundaries
âof Rudloe Manor. âPOPE: There it is.
NARRATOR: Joining him in his search for the truth
was Nick Pope, who in the early 1990s,
worked for the Ministry of Defence
investigating UFOs.
TSOUKALOS: We're here.
During your time at the MOD,
what did you learn about this place
or any type of, uh, UFO cases
that may have happened around this area?
Well, this whole area is rich in UFO sightings.
Rudloe Manor was the headquarters of a unit
known as Provost and Security Services.
âMm. âNow, this is all tied up
with Air Force security and intelligence.
UFO sightings were investigated by staff
based here at Rudloe Manor.
But for years, weâwe denied it.
We told Parliament, the media
and the public that these things were of no interest,
that Rudloe Manor had no involvement in this.
And yet, when the files were declassified,
it turned out that people were right.
âRight here? âRight here.
âOkay. âAndâand so, thisâthis building
really was at the heart of Britain's secret UFO research
and particularly, the underground facilities below us.
All sorts of secrets
and research and investigation projects
went on from, uh, this particular facility.
NARRATOR: While the manor house was the face of Rudloe Manor
and the headquarters for Britain's UFO investigations,
access to the underground facilities
is found two miles away
at the equally secretive installation known as the C. C. C.
POPE: It's close to where we are.
It's all part of the underground facility,
so there are tunnels
which start right underneath the manor house here
and go to the C. C. C.
No one knows exactly how many people work down there,
but it's thousands.
âMmâhmm. âNobody knows exactly what they do.
And I worked for the government,
for the Ministry of Defence for 21 years and I don't know.
âRight. âSo, and even if I did, I wouldn't be able to tell you.
Of course.
NARRATOR: Are the UFO files
withheld by the Ministry of Defence
being kept at Rudloe Manor,
as ancient astronaut theorists believe?
And could even greater secrets be hidden
at the mysterious site known as the C. C. C.?
POPE: Officially, it's called the Corsham Computer Centre.
And you can't get in there. It's absolutely offâlimits.
Whatever's going on down there, it's big.
NARRATOR: Despite the fact
that it is not open to the public,
ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos
asked Nick Pope to take him to the C. C. C.
for a firsthand look at the installation.
âTSOUKALOS: All right. âGood luck.
Thank you very much.
NARRATOR: As a former employee
of the Ministry of Defence,
Nick did not feel it was appropriate
for him to approach the facility himself without clearance.
I'll see you later, Nick.
âYes. âTake care.
TSOUKALOS: Here we are. The C. C. C.
The lights are on.
And, uh, just like Nick explained,
it's got barbed wire, it is fenced down, it's impenetrable.
NARRATOR: According to the British Ministry of Defence,
the C. C. C. is simply a data processing center
for the Royal Navy.
But if true,
why is it so heavily guarded?
TSOUKALOS: Clearly, it's an access
to what seems to be an underground system.
And if the stories that Nick told me are true,
then underneath our feet is a vast system of tunnels
and underground facilities.
(siren blaring)
NARRATOR: Within minutes of Giorgio's arrival
at the security gate, the crew is met
by a military police unit.
TSOUKALOS: Can you tell me anything about this place?
NARRATOR: Unfortunately, the situation ends
with filming being halted.
TSOUKALOS: Well, we're only trying to find out the truth.
NARRATOR: But why?
What is it that's so top secret
that Giorgio and his camera crew are not even allowed
to film the entrance from public property?
TSOUKALOS: So it was exactly how you saidââ
fortification, barbed wire fence.
I had about five minutes, and then a police car showed up,
and he said, "Well, I think it's time for you to leave."
Oh, I think you did exactly the right thing to get out there
while you could, but you know that, uh,
"A," it is operational, and "B," it's obviously important.
They sent the security people out.
IâI guarantee you they had eyes on you
from the moment you started.
NARRATOR: Could this seemingly innocuous building
and the underground facilities it leads to
be continuing the extraterrestrial investigations
that were previously carried out at Rudloe Manor?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest that they are
not only looking into UFO reports
but mysterious phenomena that has been happening
in the county of Wiltshire for thousands of years.
âI think this is it right here. âYes, here we are.
âRight. âRight.
NARRATOR: Author and historian Andrew Collins
has lived in or near Wiltshire for most of his life
and has investigated the many strange happenings
associated with the area.
âHow are you? You good? âAll right. Yeah.
NARRATOR: Giorgio and Nick arranged to meet with him
to discuss why the Ministry of Defence
might have chosen this location to be the headquarters
of their UFO investigations.
You're looking at the dead center
of weird activity in the whole of Great Britain.
We've got UFOs...
we've got crop circles,
we've got the most intensive amount of prehistoric sites,
ancient mounds, burrows.
Plus, we have, obviously, the strange activity
that surrounds places like Rudloe Manor
or Corsham as a whole, where we are here today.
Absolutely. And some of these sites,
I don't think people realize, but they're older
âthan the Egyptian pyramids. âAbsolutely.
COLLINS: We've got here Stonehenge
and Avebury itself.
Most people think that these sites go back
4,500 to 5,000 years,
but they in fact go back at least 10,000 years.
I lived in the center of Avebury,
which is the largest stoneâcircle complex
in the whole of the world.
UFOs have been seen,
in the vicinity of the stones there.
Sometimes they've been seen to actually
come into the circle and land.
Other times they have manifested into strange shapes,
figures, things like that.
All around the country, there are certain areas where UFOs
manifest more than anywhere else.
They're called window areas, and I believe that the area
around Stonehenge and Avebury is exactly
one of those window areas.
Because there are reports of UFOs and strange lights
being seen here for several hundred years.
And it's long been speculated that there's a connection
between UFOs and what are known as "ley lines."
NARRATOR: In 1925,
amateur archaeologist Alfred Watkins published
The Old Straight Track, a book in which he proposed
that man's earliest monuments and megaliths were linked
by a network of what he called "ley lines."
Some researchers claim scientific testing shows
evidence that the ley lines are magnetic in nature,
and delineate the lines of Earth's unseen energy fields.
I'm aware of at least one ley line
that goes all the way from England
to the bottom of the boot in Italy in one straight line.
And what's fascinating,
that especially as it goes through Italy,
all these cities, they contain
the root word for "star."
We have what we call the Earth grids.
These are sites, power sites,
all the way round the world, which all seem to be
linked by these lines of energy
that seem to converge, and at all of these sites
you'll find the same type of phenomenaââ
strange lights, UFOs, mysterious happenings,
prehistoric activity, sacred sites.
And this is exactly what we have here in Wiltshire.
NARRATOR: Could the soâcalled "ley lines" be part
of an invisible energy grid?
And might this explain both the high number
of mysterious occurrences in this area,
as well as the decision
by the British Ministry of Defence
to base the headquarters for their UFO investigations here?
DAVID WILCOCK: Why is the government there?
What are they seeing?
There are many compelling
UFO sightings in Wiltshire
that are jawâdropping in their level of significance.
WILCOCK: As one example, in 1948,
a couple was walking through the fields of Wiltshire...
and there in a low altitude comes a flying saucer.
They see two people inside the ship,
closely enough that they could tell
the people were looking right at them.
And this was in the immediate aftermath of World War II.
And remember, now, after World War II,
the British never gave back the underground city
below Rudloe Manor.
And it could be that there are unusual energies there
at that exact spot where the Ministry of Defence
had the center of their UFO investigating headquarters.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that the Ministry of Defence
retained control of Rudloe Manor after World War II
because they were aware that extraterrestrials have been
visiting the area of Wiltshire not just in modern times
but for thousands of years?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes
and suggest that further clues
as to what is really going on in the vast underground
facilities can be found by investigating an incident
that has become known as Britain's Roswell.
NARRATOR: London, England.
May 22, 1955.
In reports syndicated by the INS,
famed American newspaper columnist Dorothy Kilgallen
makes an audacious claim:
Dorothy Kilgallen was someone who had extremely good ties
and links with people in the government,
the intelligence community, and the military.
Kilgallen heard a story that she said
came directly to her
from a highâranking representative
of the British government.
And the story was, back in '55,
the British government had got its hands on a crashed UFO.
And judging from the size of the craft
and the interior of the vehicle, it appeared to be piloted
by very small, humanoidâlike entities.
Rather than stay quiet, Dorothy Kilgallen obviously realized,
given the source of the story, this was a major breaking event.
So she published this story in the pages
of a number of U. S. newspapers.
NARRATOR: Could Dorothy Kilgallen's story be true?
For the next ten years, she stood by her claims,
insisting that further investigations
should be conducted.
But on November 8, 1965,
Dorothy Kilgallen died under what some say
were mysterious circumstances.
While the British government has never wavered
in denying her allegations,
UFO researcher and former British Foreign Service
officer Gordon Creighton claimed to have found evidence
that backed up her story.
Gordon Creighton looked into this case
as deeply as possible,
and his intelligence connections suggested
that the event had actually occurred
during the Second World War,
and this crashed UFO was put on ice, so to speak.
And then, when the war was over
and the peace was reigning again,
the military then decided to pull this wrecked UFO
out of the hangar and then start investigating it.
Now, a lot of the rumors coming out about
"the real investigations"
are coming from Rudloe Manor.
One of the more thoughtâprovoking aspects
of Rudloe Manor is this claim
that it's sort of the British equivalent of Area 51.
NARRATOR: Interestingly, this would not be the last time
allegations surfaced that a crashed UFO had been retrieved
and taken to Rudloe Manor.
Another, much more notorious incident, occurred in the 1970s
and was witnessed by an entire village.
Llandrillo, Wales,
January 23, 1974.
Late in the evening,
this quiet rural village in the Berwyn Mountains
is rocked by an enormous explosion.
14âyearâold Huw Lloyd is in his home, watching television,
when he feels the impact
and then receives call after call from his neighbors,
most claiming to have seen an incredibly bright light
falling from the sky, and then glowing on the mountainside.
Today, Huw Lloyd still works
on his father's ranch in Llandrillo.
âAre you Huw? âYep.
NARRATOR: Ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos
and Nick Pope, a former UFO investigator
for the British Ministry of Defence,
met up with Huw to get
his take on what really happened that night.
âCan you tell us your experience? âWell...
Your neighbors called you to ask you if you're okay.
So they pretty much had similar experiences?
So you're not the only one?
And you were, uh, 14 years old?
How did your parents react?
And what time of evening was this?
So, you know, some people have suggested
that, why, it was nothing else but an earthquake.
âYeah. âWhich I don't subscribe to this idea,
but have you had any earthquakes around here?
But you saw that light, and it was much, much brighter
than people lamping.
I mean, it was something almost blinding?
Wow.
NARRATOR: According to ancient astronaut theorists,
what really happened in the Berwyn Mountains that night
was the crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft
that was retrieved and taken to Rudloe Manor.
And they suggest that the most compelling clues can be found
by examining not the event itself
but what happened immediately after.
(explosion, electrical discharge)
NARRATOR: At 9:10 p. m.,
on the night of the mysterious incident at Llandrillo,
approximately 30 minutes
after the strange lights and violent tremors were reported,
a police officer arrived at the home of eyewitness Huw Lloyd.
There's a knock on the door, and it was a police officer there.
âRight, so a senior officer. âYeah.
âNot one of the local... âNo.
NARRATOR: A plane crash?
For Nick Pope, who worked at the Ministry of Defence
and has seen the file on this incident,
this is a surprising new detail.
The official report only mentions a meteor
and nothing about a plane.
Right, and roughly what time did he turn up at the house?
Right. So there is no way that he could have got from Barmouth.
Interesting. Okay.
We've heard lots of stories about military involvement,
as well as police.
The theory, initially, that this was a plane crash
and that this police and military operation
âwas a search and rescue... âYeah.
...or search and recovery, that's fine.
But I mean, you know, we know where our planes are.
There is 24â7 radar coverage,
âcivilian aircraft. âEven back then.
Yeah, absolutely, planes don't just drop out of the sky.
And if they do, immediately,
everyone knows which aircraft it is, so it seems odd.
NARRATOR: The officer commandeered the family's truck
and drove with Huw to the crash site.
Nick and Giorgio were taken on the exact same journey
that was made that night.
POPE: How high is the mountain?
You know, one thing that struck me is,
this is a pretty difficult drive.
So you've got to be pretty determined
to get a whole bunch of people up here.
TSOUKALOS: Yes, and for what purpose?
Unless it's really something of importance.
âYeah, this is not to be undertaken lightly, is it? âNo.
No.
POPE: An interesting thing
is the fact that it was an inspector who came out.
âOkay. âI mean, that's the thing, you see, in the U. K.,
most cops are constables,
and then next up from that is sergeant.
And then inspector is above that.
âOh, really? âSo it's actually quite a senior rank.
This, to me, says that somebody somewhere was treating this
as an important, highâprofile incident
that needed someone with the seniority and the clout
to deal with it.
NARRATOR: According to Huw,
the police inspector directed them to stop at this spot,
although he was allegedly not familiar with the area
and seemed to have no reason for doing so.
It was at this location
that he witnessed an incredibly bright light in the distance.
So, down there?
âYeah, more to the left there, okay? âYeah.
TSOUKALOS: So not in the trees,
but beyond... in the valley.
TSOUKALOS: When this light appeared,
did it seem to you as if it was an explosion?
POPE: And how long was it shining for?
NARRATOR: According to Huw,
the inspector wanted to get a closer look
at the mysterious light
but then received a curious command from his superiors.
So, it sounds like it was a stand down call.
TSOUKALOS: Yes.
NARRATOR: Curiously, the official explanation
for these events provided by the Ministry of Defence
did not include either fox hunters or a plane crash,
as was told to Huw that night.
And the story they did provide
involves an incredible coincidence.
The story is apparently
that there was an earthquake that hit the village.
But at the same time,
there was a bright fireball meteor
breaking up in the Earth's atmosphere.
So, not one extraordinary event,
but two at exactly the same time.
Some people said, "Has there been a UFO incident?
Has there maybe been a UFO crash?"
Over the years, the UFO community has become convinced
that this was indeed a UFO crash,
that the military launched a secret operation
to secure the crash site,
to recover the wreckage and maybe bodies,
and to take it to a secure facility.
And many believe that that secure facility is Rudloe Manor.
NARRATOR: If what Huw Lloyd and hundreds of others witnessed
on that night in 1974
really was an alien craft falling from the sky,
might the wreckage have been taken
to Rudloe Manor for investigation?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes
and suggest that perhaps the most compelling evidence of all
can be found by reexamining
England's bestâdocumented UFO encounter,
the Rendlesham Forest incident.
NARRATOR: Rendlesham Forest.
Suffolk County, England.
200 miles east of Rudloe Manor
lie six square miles of woodlands
that has become notorious as the site
of Great Britain's most incredible UFO encounter.
On December 26, 1980,
near an air base leased to the United States Air Force
by the R. A. F.,
strange lights are reported on the horizon,
in what appears to be a possible downed aircraft.
Two U. S. servicemen are dispatched to the site.
According to accounts, radios failed
as they approached the targeted area,
and the air itself felt electrically charged
as they closed in.
Strange lights were seen about 300 to 400 meters away
from an area that was called the East Gate.
And the patrolling officers at the East Gate
saw the lights above the forest
and they thought potentially it was a downed aircraft
or an aircraft in distress.
So two of them,
Sergeant Penniston and Airman John Burroughs,
went further into the forest.
NARRATOR: Once at the soâcalled crash site,
the men observed a strange triangular craft on the ground,
approximately three meters wide at its base.
POPE: It appeared to be either hovering or on legs.
And it had clearly come down into this small clearing
and smashed some of the branches off the trees,
so there was physical evidence which was looked at afterwards.
And so the men looked at this strange object.
PENNISTON: I noticed that there was an inscription
on the side of the aircraft.
I was expecting to find, I don't know, USAF,
something like that.
And what I find is glyphs, pictorial glyphs,
making no sense at all.
And then I was running my hand over the side of the craft;
it was very warm to touch.
At this time, we're getting
a feeling of electricity that was just bouncing.
It was much, much stronger.
There was this feeling of being drawn into it,
or being pulled into it.
Like someone was holding a picture
of zeros and ones in my mind's eye.
NARRATOR: The strange visions Sergeant Penniston had
upon touching the craft
has made this one of Britain's most famous UFO encounters,
but ancient astronaut theorists suggest
that even more compelling is what happened after.
(dispatcher speaking indistinctly)
NARRATOR: The following evening,
further strange sightings occurred,
and also the night after,
reported by U. S. Air Force Colonel Charles Halt.
Colonel Halt led his own search party
to put an end to the confusion.
But instead of finding a logical explanation,
they discovered high levels of radioactivity
where Burroughs and Penniston had previously seen
the strange craft,
and three "impact holes" in the ground.
They then spotted a light in a nearby field
that suddenly came towards them through the trees at high speed.
One of the people with me said, "Look there, to the north."
There were four or five objects in the sky.
They were elliptical and round, they changed shape.
They moved at very high speed, made sharp, angular turns,
as though they were doing some type of a grid search.
One came at high speed, and stopped directly overhead,
3,000, 4,000, maybe 5,000 feet,
and sent down a concentrated beam
about eight or ten feet from us.
It was about a foot in diameter.
I would describe it today as probably like a laser beam.
We noticed the other object to the south
sending down similar beams on Woodbridge Base.
Apparently, these beams were falling down
into or near the weapons storage area.
I was really concerned, then.
HESELTINE: I suspect it was some kind of scan
to see what was inside, the ordnance inside.
What we do know is Lieutenant Colonel Halt
saw Colonel Williams just a few hours later
and told him that beams had been shone down
into the storage bunkers, and he said,
"I think the ordnance needs to be checked out."
NARRATOR: If Colonel Halt's report is true,
why were these craft emitting beams of light
down into the Woodbridge Base?
According to some ancient astronaut theorists,
they may have been conducting a search,
not for nuclear weapons but for one of their own craft.
POPE: They were moving around erratically,
he said, as if... conducting some sort of grid search,
and the reason he said that was that beams of lights
were firing down from this UFO
into one of the most sensitive parts of the base,
the weapons storage area.
Maybe the aliens would be looking for crashed UFOs,
maybe their own alien technology
to prevent us from trying to back engineer it
and build our own spacecraft.
NARRATOR: Could it be that the UFOs
witnessed over the highly secure Woodbridge Base
were aliens searching for one of their own downed craft?
Might they have considered this base
the most likely place
the British government would hide such wreckage,
unaware of its true location
in the underground facilities of Rudloe Manor?
Ancient astronaut theorists believe
the truth lies within the 18 UFO files
the British government has withheld from the public,
and that it might also exist in documents
recently declassified by the CIA.
NARRATOR: Washington, D. C.
October 2016.
In the weeks leading up
to the United States presidential election,
WikiLeaks publishes over 20,000 pages of private eâmails
belonging to John Podesta,
the chairman of Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Within these eâmails, it is revealed
that Podesta has a strong interest
in releasing the CIA's classified UFO files
should Clinton become president.
While his candidate lost the election,
Podesta ultimately got his wish.
On January 18, 2017,
in Barack Obama's last days as president,
the CIA uploaded nearly a million classified UFO files
to its Web site.
The move prompted new calls
for the British government to release the 18 files
that they held back from their own disclosure of UFO reports
that began in 2007.
But still, the Ministry of Defence
will not release their documents.
Could these files hold information
about extraterrestrial activity not even known to the CIA?
And do they remain hidden at Rudloe Manor?
I think the MOD is not willing
to have that honest debate with the public.
It is not willing to, sort of, open up its files.
I don't think they trust the people with information.
They don't want an informed populace.
If you would get access to all the information the MOD holds,
I think it would point to the fact
that the MOD has a lot of information
that we're being visited by extraterrestrial craft.
WILCOCK: We now know that there are at least two confirmed cases
of crashed extraterrestrial spacecraft
being relocated to Rudloe Manor.
This includes Dorothy Kilgallen's claim
that craft were crashing in World War II
and were brought to Rudloe Manor,
and it also includes the Berwyn Mountains incident
that occurred in 1974.
The Ministry of Defence vehemently denied
that they were involved in UFO investigations,
and yet now, thanks to declassified documents,
we know that they were, in fact,
actively investigating this subject
and that Rudloe Manor was at the center of it.
So now that we find out
that even after they told us they released all the documents,
that there's 18 documents being held back,
something tells me that when we go into those documents,
we will find that all roads lead back to Rudloe Manor.
TSOUKALOS: I think it's highly likely
that they know that intelligent extraterrestrial life exists.
The only reason why this information
has not yet been made public
is because of this bizarre thought
that we as a human species can't handle the truth
that we're not alone in the universe.
And I think that all government agencies around the world
should give the people living on this planet
a little bit more credit
because it just shows the greater picture
and that we are part of this larger picture.
NARRATOR: Could the remains of an extraterrestrial craft
really lie hidden deep beneath the surface of Rudloe Manor?
And if so,
might the recent disclosure by the American CIA
push the British government closer
to revealing an incredible truth?
Proof that first contact with extraterrestrials
is no longer the stuff of science fiction,
but of scientific and historical fact.
