--> 00:00:19,120 Throughout history, mysterious lights in the sky have 4 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,360 sparked wonder, fear, and speculation. 5 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,440 Are they natural phenomena, man-made illusions, or 6 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,480 something far more extraordinary? 7 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,960 A message from life beyond our world? 8 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,320 Today we explore the world's most mysterious encounters 9 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,360 with unexplainable lights. 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,800 From the chilling depths of Rendlesham Forest, the 11 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,560 Roswell incident, the haunting Martha Lights, to the 12 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,200 chaos of the Battle of Los Angeles. 13 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,000 Are these phenomena mere tricks of nature, or 14 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,520 could they be undeniable evidence of extraterrestrial life 15 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:04,960 visiting our planet? 16 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,520 Let's have a look at the aliens that might be living among us. 17 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,880 I've never seen anything like it before then, 18 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,920 and I've never seen anything like it since then. 19 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,520 Set against the turbulent backdrop of the devastating 20 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,080 attack on Pearl Harbor, one of the United 21 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,880 States' most baffling aerial mysteries. 22 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,560 Birds and blimps to enemy aircraft, and even 23 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,760 the possibility of visitors from another world. 24 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,120 Yet one fact remains undeniable. 25 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,000 What was witnessed in the skies that night 26 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,600 was truly an unidentified flying object. 27 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:05,840 A UFO. 28 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,240 December 7th, 1941. 29 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,160 A date which will live in infamy. 30 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,640 With confidence in our armed forces, with the 31 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:35,000 unfounding determination of our people, we will gain 32 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,480 the inevitable triumph. 33 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,200 So help us God. 34 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,320 Reports of strange flying objects in the sky are older than the United States. 35 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,200 Some of them reported in scientific journals that 36 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,720 date back to the 16th century, but they've 37 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,200 usually been classed with Loch Ness monsters and 38 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:06,800 relegated to the Sunday supplements. 39 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,960 Until World War II showed us that some 40 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,880 of the most fantastic dreams can be very real. 41 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Like atomic bombs, for instance. 42 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,600 And since the close of the war, hundreds 43 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:24,080 of reports of strange objects in the sky have been filed with the Air Force. 44 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,840 And most of them have been easily explained. 45 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,680 Experimental jet aircraft, weather balloons, reflected ground lights, 46 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,320 unusual cloud formations, and so on. 47 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,520 February 23rd, 1942. 48 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,560 The sighting of a Japanese submarine off the 49 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,880 coast of Santa Barbara, California heightened fears of a mainland invasion. 50 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,600 As the sun set, the shelling began. 51 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,960 February 24th, 1942. 52 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:04,080 7.18p.m. That evening, warnings of 53 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,920 a further invasion by naval intelligence put much 54 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,400 of the Los Angeles coastline under yellow alert. 55 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,734 Tensions eased over the next few hours, prompting a white alert to be issued. 56 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,960 February 25th, 1942. 57 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,360 Air raid sirens penetrated the night's silence. 58 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,120 Radars pinpoint an unidentified flying object approaching the 59 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320 metropolis, forcing a blackout. 60 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,120 L.A. descended into darkness as the gunners prepared for the invasion. 61 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:40,720 Was it imminent? 62 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:52,040 It's a well-known story within UFO history. 63 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,240 Anti-aircraft guns went into action against unidentified 64 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,400 aircraft in the Los Angeles area shortly after 65 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,040 3 a.m. Pacific wartime this morning. 66 00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:04,160 The anti-aircraft guns began barking during a 67 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,360 blackout ordered by the 4th Interceptor Command at 68 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,840 2.25 a.m. The unidentified object, which 69 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,560 some sources thought might be a blimp, moved 70 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,960 slowly down the Pacific coast from Santa Monica 71 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,760 and disappeared south of Long Beach. 72 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,960 They spotted an object in the sky over Los Angeles. 73 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:29,014 Basically, you know, an oval object, 74 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:34,360 and they had anti-aircraft batteries at the ready, and off they went. 75 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,680 Fired thousands of rounds at this thing. 76 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,840 It was caught in the searchlights, you know, of the city... 77 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,680 and of course, it's gone down in UFO law 78 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,880 because there was no attack ever on the 79 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,760 mainland of the United States by the Japanese. 80 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:17,880 So some people said, well, perhaps this oval -shaped object was a UFO. 81 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:28,120 Well, this made headlines in the newspapers, and 82 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,120 the reason it didn't get hit is because it's not of this Earth. 83 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,640 Captured by a Los Angeles Times photographer, an 84 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,440 iconic image offered a chilling glimpse into the 85 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,040 source of Los Angeles' most terrifying air raid. 86 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:44,680 Black-and-white picture. 87 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:50,200 You see the searchlights all converging on an object in the sky. 88 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,280 There's some anti-aircraft fire around it, and 89 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,200 it looks like when the searchlights, you know, 90 00:06:57,280 --> 00:06:59,640 are all linked together, all come together, that 91 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,440 there is some kind of object within it. 92 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,080 That's fueled speculation as to what it may or may not have been. 93 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,000 But the story doesn't end in the City of Angels. 94 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,040 Our journey takes us to the windswept plains 95 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,880 of New Mexico, where another enigmatic event would 96 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,720 forever change the way we view the skies. 97 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,800 In the small, dusty town of Roswell, a 98 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:29,440 mystery unfolded that would cement its place in UFO lore. 99 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:35,080 This is the Roswell Incident, a case shrouded 100 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,600 in secrecy, rife with rumors of government cover 101 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,680 ups, and nearly erased from public memory. 102 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,480 What truths lie buried in the desert sands? 103 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,080 What was being hidden from us? 104 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,160 So it is known as the Cosmic Watergate even today. 105 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,560 Even the skeptics will agree that something crashed at Roswell. 106 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:57,374 There's no denying it. 107 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,960 The Air Force agrees that something crashed there. 108 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,360 It's a question of what, who do you 109 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,120 believe, what evidence do you, you know, have to support it? 110 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,840 We expect the cowboys and Indians to come riding past. 111 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,320 It's rocks, sand, cactus. 112 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,440 The townsfolk have a saying about Roswell, that 113 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,254 it's 200 miles from nowhere, and it pretty much is. 114 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,960 Headline edition, July 8, 1947. 115 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,120 The Army Air Forces has announced that a 116 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,880 flying disc has been found and is now in the possession of the Army. 117 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,320 Army officers say the missile, found sometime last week, 118 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,760 has been inspected at Roswell, New Mexico, 119 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,880 and sent to Wright Field, Ohio, for further inspection. 120 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,640 What they recovered was supposedly a vehicle not 121 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,200 of this world, a flying saucer. 122 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,400 The airbase that was just outside of the town was the Roswell Army Air Force. 123 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,760 The Army and the Air Force were one group in those days. 124 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,880 There are claims that Roswell was a significant 125 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,360 place for an alien spacecraft to be in 126 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,800 action on this planet, because it was the 127 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,680 home at that point of the 509th, which 128 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,240 was the only, the only squadron, airborne squadron, 129 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,880 trained to drop nuclear weapons on the face of the Earth. 130 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,000 They were the ones responsible for the atomic 131 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,680 bombs during the Second World War, although they weren't flown out of Roswell. 132 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,080 They'd had a call from the local sheriff 133 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,640 in the town, a chap called Matt Brazel, 134 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,520 claimed to have found this strange debris on his ranch. 135 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,160 So they sent Jesse Marcel to investigate. 136 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,560 He brought some of this debris back, 137 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,200 en route back to the base in the early hours of the morning. 138 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,160 He woke up his son, Jesse Marcel Jr., 139 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,880 and spread this material on the kitchen floor. 140 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,080 His son picked this, this piece of material 141 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,280 up, what they call an I-beam, with these strange symbols on. 142 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,240 And his father said to him, son, you may be the first to see writing from 143 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,320 another world. 144 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,760 Apart from the I-beam that is described by his son, one of the most peculiar 145 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,920 properties of this material was what they nicknamed memory metal. 146 00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:24,080 So it looked pretty much like aluminium, 147 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,600 but it was extremely lightweight, almost had no weight 148 00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:33,080 at all, and then when you crushed it, you could crush it easily, and then you'd 149 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,360 let go, and it would just spring back 150 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,720 into its previous shape, with no creases, no marks. 151 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,720 His son, who went on to become a doctor, and also served in the military as 152 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,800 a flight surgeon, said, I've never seen anything 153 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,920 like it before then, and I've never seen anything like it since then. 154 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,360 Now, for whatever reason, Roswell Army Air Force 155 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,920 did issue an official press release saying that 156 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000 they had discovered a flying disc on a 157 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,520 rancher's land, and some of it was being sent to higher headquarters. 158 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,760 That particular press release went around the world, 159 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,320 sent out a second press release saying, sorry, we got it wrong. 160 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,840 It wasn't a flying disc. 161 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,160 It was actually just a weather balloon. 162 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,120 They basically brought in the press photographers, and 163 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,000 there's a set of photographs, and there is 164 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,520 Major Marcel holding bits of this material, which 165 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,080 is clearly a weather balloon. 166 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,400 However, Major Marcel said, that is not the 167 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:59,200 material that I collected from Matt Brazel's ranch. 168 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,960 The allegation is that they did somehow a swap. 169 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,040 The peculiar thing is that Major Marcel was 170 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,960 quite well qualified to identify weather balloons, because 171 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,720 they used to launch weather balloons from their 172 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,360 own base every day, because they needed to 173 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,520 know the weather, because they had aircraft in 174 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,240 and out of there, and it was only, 175 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,320 I think, two months before this incident, he'd 176 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,040 actually been qualified to do this work. 177 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:33,200 He knew a weather balloon when he saw it, and he was adamant until his dying 178 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,920 day that the material he collected was certainly no weather balloon. 179 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,360 In the stillness of the Rendlesham forest, hazy 180 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,360 lights pierced through the treetops, witnessed by military 181 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,360 personnel stationed nearby. 182 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,800 It was late December 1980, just after Christmas, 183 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,720 when this extraordinary event unfolded, becoming the most 184 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,720 famous UFO encounter in British history. 185 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,840 But was it a hoax, or a visit from beings beyond our solar system? 186 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,960 Eyewitness accounts tell of strange lights, and even 187 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,880 physical contact with an otherworldly craft. 188 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,320 Yet sceptics propose alternative explanations, natural phenomena, or 189 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,920 perhaps an elaborate prank. 190 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,560 The biggest cases in the UK, often given 191 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:33,400 the name, you know, Britain's Roswell, happened in 192 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,280 Rendlesham forest in Suffolk. 193 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,920 Rendlesham forest lay between the twin bases of 194 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,080 RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters. 195 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,880 Now in 1980, they were an American base. 196 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,320 It's not a backward little, you know, RAF station. 197 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,374 It had nuclear weapons stored there. 198 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,800 Now in 1980, they were on high alert 199 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,280 because there was tensions throughout Russia and some 200 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:07,880 of the Soviet bloc countries. 201 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,080 Some events happened in late December 1980 over a period of three nights. 202 00:14:16,680 --> 00:14:19,600 There was apparently a sighting of a UFO there. 203 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:23,480 There's subsequently a document came to light, which 204 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,400 is known as the Holt Memo, because Charles 205 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,920 Holt, who was the acting base commander that night, wrote up the events. 206 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,120 And he said that his men went out to investigate strange lights in the forest. 207 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,320 And what's subsequently being claimed is that they 208 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,480 encountered a UFO, and that there were aliens 209 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,080 involved, and that this may actually have been 210 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,680 some collusion between the American military and the 211 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,400 aliens to do with a craft that needed 212 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,160 to come down somewhere to affect its own repairs. 213 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,574 First night, some strange lights were seen in 214 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,720 the forest, and one of the security police... 215 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,720 saw this and asked if he could go and investigate. 216 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,600 So three base security personnel were sent. 217 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,960 They traveled into Rendlesham forest, which was then public land. 218 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,640 It was not military land. 219 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,840 One stayed with the vehicle because they were 220 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,560 having problems with their communications. 221 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,520 Jim Pennington and John Burrows were the two airmen that went into the forest. 222 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,160 They could see this thing in amongst the trees. 223 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,600 They claimed that as they approached it, what 224 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,960 they saw was not just lights, it was 225 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:42,680 a triangular-shaped craft, either hovering or on legs just above the ground. 226 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,000 Red lights on the top, blue lights underneath. 227 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,760 It wasn't that big, you know, maybe the size of a medium-sized car. 228 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,240 Jim Pennington claims he touched it. 229 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:56,800 It felt warm and smooth, and there were 230 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,840 these strange markings down the side of it. 231 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:05,440 They walked around it, and then it moved off through the trees. 232 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,320 They were then accompanied by their third colleague, 233 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,854 and they tried to chase it through the trees, but it was gone. 234 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,320 So they reported this in the incident log when they returned to base. 235 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,000 Then on the third night, the deputy base 236 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:29,400 commander, Colonel Holt, was on site, and they 237 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,880 were having a post-Christmas dinner. 238 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,920 Awards were being given out, you know, the base commander was there. 239 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,560 And one of the, again, the security came 240 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,640 and said, you know, Colonel, Colonel had heard 241 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,880 about what had happened, and they said to him, it's back. 242 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,000 What's back? 243 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:48,840 This is the UFO. 244 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,040 So the colonel thought, I'll take some men 245 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:57,120 into the forest, and I'll do away with this nonsense. 246 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,280 Now he wasn't in military uniform at the 247 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,800 time, so he went, got changed first, picked 248 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,680 up his small tape recorder, a little handheld 249 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,934 thing, selected a few men, off they went. 250 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,360 First problem they had, they had these sort 251 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,360 of diesel-powered lights, they're called light holes, 252 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,160 and they wouldn't work. 253 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:19,598 They were arguing that there was no diesel 254 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,200 in them, but of course they were full. 255 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,374 So they proceeded into the woods, into the forest. 256 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,480 The colonel was first taken to the location 257 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,880 of the first night's encounter, and one of 258 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,920 his colleagues had brought a Geiger counter along 259 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,080 with him, and he waved it over the 260 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,800 area, and he got higher readings, not dangerous, 261 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,160 but higher readings where this object had supposedly been. 262 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,000 He looked up in the tree canopy, it 263 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,240 looked as if the branches were broken, because 264 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,800 the trees were quite densely packed, looked like 265 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,880 something had descended through the trees. 266 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,800 Then out in the distance the colonel could 267 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,520 see this red-orange light, not high in 268 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,920 the sky but low down, it looked almost like an eye blinking at you 269 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,414 and all the while he's recording. 270 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,920 Approximately 0-1-25 hours. 271 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,920 The indentations look like something twisted, you know, 272 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,200 has it sat down on them? 273 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:21,920 Looks like someone took something and sat it 274 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,800 down and twisted it from side to side. 275 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,000 Very strange. 276 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,440 Hey, this is Erie. 277 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,160 Foxtrot. 278 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,400 This is strange. 279 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,640 Erie, someone want to look at the spots in the ground? 280 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,680 0148, we're getting very strange signs out of the farmer's barnyard animals. 281 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,160 Very, very active, making an awful lot of noise. 282 00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:50,080 They came to the edge of the forest, and then there was a farmer's field. 283 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,160 Beyond the field was the farmhouse, and they 284 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,760 said this orange thing was in the field, 285 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,120 and it was so bright it lit up the, it reflected off the glass in the 286 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,880 windows of the farmhouse, and it made the farmhouse look like it was on fire. 287 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,560 The lighting is gone now, it was approximately 120 degrees from the site. 288 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,520 Is it back again? 289 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:11,200 Yes, sir. 290 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,640 We'll douse the flashlight, sir. 291 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,678 Let's move out to the edge of the clearing so we can get a better look 292 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,840 at it, see if we can get the star scope on it. 293 00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:22,600 The light's still there, and all the barnyard animals have gotten quiet now. 294 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,600 Yeah, we're heading about 110, 120 degrees from 295 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,320 the site out through to the clearing now, 296 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,040 still getting a reading on the meter, about two clicks. 297 00:19:30,120 --> 00:19:32,320 Maybe three to four clicks, getting stronger. 298 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:37,634 Now, some people have said what the colonel 299 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,400 and his party were looking at was the lighthouse. 300 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,400 There's a lighthouse out on the coast at Orford Nest. 301 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,480 The colonel said I could see the lighthouse as well as this. 302 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,800 I knew what the lighthouse looked like anyway, 303 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,560 and this thing was in the field. 304 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,080 Okay, we're looking at the thing. 305 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,120 We're probably about 200 to 300 yards away. 306 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,600 It looks like an eye winking at you, 307 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,280 still moving from side to side, and when you put the star scope on it, it's 308 00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:05,120 sort of a hollow center, a dark center. 309 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,920 It's like a pupil of an eye looking at you and winking. 310 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,280 This thing moved closer to them. 311 00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:15,320 They all got a bit edgy, and then it burst, and it was gone. 312 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,480 When they looked, somebody notified the colonel, and 313 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,840 there was three or more objects in the sky, and they said at one point a 314 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,080 beam of light was shot down towards them. 315 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,000 Okay, here he comes from the south. 316 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,240 He's coming towards us now. 317 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,360 Now we're observing what appears to be a beam coming down to the ground. 318 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,000 This is unreal. 319 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,640 And it landed, you know, it was aiming towards them. 320 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:41,598 I don't mean a long way off. 321 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,640 It was just a few yards away from them. 322 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,120 He didn't know if this was a weapon or warning. 323 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,454 You know, some of these lights were also seen over the weapon storage area. 324 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,480 3400 hours, one object still hovering over Woodbridge 325 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,480 base at about five to ten degrees off 326 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,920 the horizon, still moving erratic and similar lights 327 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,960 and beaming down over here. 328 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,800 So they chased these lights through the forest 329 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,560 for a couple of hours or more, and 330 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,280 then he thought, well, I'm, you know, I'm wet. 331 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,400 There's nobody come, you know. 332 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,520 He expected that, you know, there might be 333 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,440 an aircraft intercept or a helicopter, nothing, nobody. 334 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,400 So he decided to return to base. 335 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,200 He reported it to his commanding officer. 336 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,280 He was later asked to write a memo, 337 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,920 which was just a one-page thing that he wrote, and he sent that to the 338 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,000 Ministry of Defence. 339 00:21:37,360 --> 00:21:40,400 Unbeknown to him, the Ministry of Defence sent 340 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,680 one to the United States Air Force, and 341 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,640 a few years later, that memo surfaced in 342 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,360 the United States under the Freedom of Information 343 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,560 Act, and the story then was made public. 344 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,320 The colonel himself would never wanted anything made 345 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:01,720 public, but once it was made public, more of those on site came forward. 346 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,280 There is no doubt these people were genuine. 347 00:22:04,360 --> 00:22:09,040 There is no sense of a hoax or anything like that at all. 348 00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:10,720 He has no idea what it is. 349 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,400 He's gone on the record, he's written an 350 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,760 affidavit, as have many of the other airmen that were involved as well. 351 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,120 From the dense greenery of Surrey, we travel 352 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,560 to the arid plains of Texas, where a 353 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,800 century-old mystery dances across the desert. 354 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,840 Known as the Marfa Lights, flickering orbs of 355 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,760 illumination have been reported since 1883, mystifying locals 356 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,974 and baffling scientists. 357 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,640 First documented by Robert Reed Ellison, a young 358 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,480 cowhand, the lights were initially thought to be 359 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:54,640 Apache campfires, yet no evidence of fire or human presence was found. 360 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,920 Since then, countless witnesses have seen these supernatural orbs. 361 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,840 They move against the wind, shimmer in various 362 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:08,360 colours, and sometimes defy explanation entirely. 363 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,960 The Marfa Lights. 364 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,280 Marfa's in Texas, in the United States, and 365 00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:22,120 it is one of several locations around the 366 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,240 world where these strange lights are observed. 367 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,600 There's no houses there, there's no roads, there's no cars, no streetlights. 368 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,800 To give you an example, there's a place 369 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:38,400 in Norway called Hestalen in central Norway, and 370 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,174 they too have these strange lights. 371 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,760 The Norwegians have studied this, and there is 372 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,680 a 24-hour monitoring station in Hestalen even now. 373 00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,574 In Australia, they call them the Min Min Lights. 374 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,400 In the UK, they've got various names, but 375 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,040 they generally go under the term of the Spook Lights. 376 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,640 And there's places in the Pennine chain of 377 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:19,120 hills where these lights are seen on a fairly regular basis. 378 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,240 There may not be lots of them, but they turn up year in, year out. 379 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,600 And we have Bala in Wales. 380 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,200 So there's locations in different parts of the 381 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,960 world where these strange lights are seen, and Marfa is one amongst them. 382 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,120 Scientists have proposed theories ranging from tectonic stress 383 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,080 beneath the Earth's crust, creating glowing Earth lights, 384 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,960 to gases igniting in the desert air. 385 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,560 Some claim superior mirages caused by temperature differences 386 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,160 might be to blame. 387 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:57,040 Others suspect the answer lies in natural gas reserves below the Marfa desert. 388 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,760 How many people have seen the Marfa lights? 389 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,480 You know, certainly hundreds down the years. 390 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,560 I've worked with a colleague by the name of Dr. Irina Scott. 391 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,560 She lives in Ohio. 392 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,360 She's seen the Marfa lights. 393 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,040 She went to visit a friend near there, and she too saw them. 394 00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:17,760 You know, she was as puzzled by them as anyone else. 395 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,720 I've been to Hestalen in Norway, didn't see 396 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,400 the lights, but they have caught the lights 397 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,840 on radar, they've taken video of them, and 398 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,654 lots and lots of photographs of them. 399 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,640 What you find about these locations, like Marfa, 400 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:40,000 they go back if not decades, even centuries, 401 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,800 and you usually find folk tales or ghostly 402 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,454 paranormal tales originally associated with these lights. 403 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:54,360 Despite the scientific scrutiny, no single theory explains it all. 404 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,840 To this day, the Marfa lights remain a 405 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,134 captivating mystery on the Texan horizon. 406 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,600 The early hours of February 25th, 1942. 407 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,840 Air raid sirens shattered the calm as radar 408 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,414 tracked an unidentified object over Los Angeles. 409 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,040 This is, you know, downtown Los Angeles. 410 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,320 You know, high above it, there must have 411 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,440 been thousands if not tens of thousands of 412 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,880 people at least saw some part of it that night. 413 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,960 You know, by its very nature, with the 414 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,640 searchlights and the anti-aircraft fire, you couldn't hide it. 415 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,960 The civilians in Los Angeles panicked somewhat. 416 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,974 They thought this was an attack by, you know, the armed forces of Japan. 417 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:51,200 Anti-aircraft guns filled the night with thunderous fire. 418 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,360 The city plunged into chaos. 419 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,320 Captured in a haunting photograph by the Los 420 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,040 Angeles Times, the events of that night became 421 00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:03,414 etched in history as one of the most infamous UFO mysteries. 422 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:11,640 Explanations ranged from weather balloons to enemy aircraft, 423 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:16,080 but declassified documents later suggested the military had 424 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:21,320 fired at nothing more than a weather balloon carrying a flare. 425 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,280 It was a weather balloon. 426 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,880 You know, a weather balloon is something that is launched even today. 427 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:41,960 We still use them. 428 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,400 It goes into various parts of our atmosphere 429 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,720 and does, you know, what it says on the tin. 430 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,160 It reads the weather, not just from its 431 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,000 location, but it can carry equipment, you know, 432 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,760 sometimes to test the weather in other areas or other parts of the atmosphere. 433 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,974 And of course, that goes back to the ground. 434 00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:05,040 Well, there was thousands of rounds of flares. 435 00:28:05,120 --> 00:28:09,000 Of anti-aircraft, fired at whatever this may or may not have been. 436 00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:11,320 And of course, nothing was shot down. 437 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,080 You know, nothing. 438 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:16,694 Not weather balloon, not Japanese bomber, no flying saucer, nothing. 439 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:24,480 Yet no wreckage was ever found, and Japanese involvement was ruled out. 440 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,280 Theories of extraterrestrial visitors have persisted, fueling the 441 00:28:29,360 --> 00:28:31,920 enigma of the Battle of Los Angeles, a 442 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,600 mystery that to this day defies definitive explanation. 443 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,320 Roswell died for decades. 444 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,720 Nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman met quite by chance 445 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,200 Major Marcel in the late 1970s. 446 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,600 And that's really when the investigation began. 447 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:59,120 In the 1990s, it hit the headlines again for a whole host of reasons. 448 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,320 And another investigation took place, this time on an official level. 449 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,880 And the United States Air Force provided a 450 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,520 huge great tome, a huge massive book about Roswell, 451 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,920 saying that it was now still a weather balloon, 452 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,880 but these weather balloons were part 453 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:22,160 of a secret monitoring device, which was called Project Mogul. 454 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,920 Basically, Project Mogul launched some equipment into the 455 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:32,680 higher atmosphere to check for Soviet nuclear experiments, tests. 456 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,160 It was discontinued for two reasons. 457 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,720 First of all, because it was only limited in its effectiveness. 458 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,200 And secondly, because the Americans managed to find 459 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,000 better ways of spying on the Russians. 460 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:49,080 So Project Mogul was top secret, but the 461 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,480 equipment that they were using was just ordinary. 462 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,800 It was still weather balloons. 463 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,720 Somebody said, well, according to some of the 464 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,080 eyewitnesses that have subsequently come forward, there was 465 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,200 also dead bodies found at the crash site. 466 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,320 I never talked about it again. 467 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:11,760 I never mentioned it to anybody. 468 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,640 Not by Major Marcel, but others. 469 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,720 And when they were saying dead bodies, they meant aliens. 470 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,480 One theory links the incident to Operation Paperclip, 471 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,360 suggesting the craft was a secret Nazi flying 472 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:34,480 machine brought to the U.S. after World War II, called the Bell. 473 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,840 This experimental craft allegedly failed during a test flight. 474 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,120 Grainy hoax footage of alien autopsies and government 475 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,920 cover-ups have blurred fact and fiction. 476 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,840 While some believe the crash was extraterrestrial, others 477 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,880 maintain it was a failed military experiment. 478 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,640 Whatever fell from the skies in Roswell, its 479 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:04,040 secrets remain tightly guarded, leaving the truth tantalizingly out of reach. 480 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,120 Press release, i.e. the press release put 481 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,080 out by Walter Holt, said that they'd captured 482 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:24,640 a flying saucer was probably a pretty bad error of judgment in the heat of the 483 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,880 moment because they realized that they'd got some 484 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,840 of their own technology and they didn't want 485 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,560 people to know there were experiments going on locally. 486 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,440 And they completely over-egged the press release, 487 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,880 which meant that they had to retract it very, very quickly. 488 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,400 But that's the only major mistake I think they made. 489 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,360 You know, if you wanted to hide something 490 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:51,240 that you were testing, then it's the perfect place. 491 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,520 You know, Trinity, the place where the first 492 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:57,280 atomic bomb was tested, is not that far away in the desert. 493 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,640 And of course, when they exploded the first 494 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,920 atomic bomb, they just told the locals it 495 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,880 was a dynamite shack that had blown up. 496 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:08,560 You think, well, if any UFO event has 497 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:13,040 the possibility of being an alien spaceship, then 498 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,720 you would put this in that category. 499 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,640 So you cannot prove it conclusively one way or another. 500 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:24,414 But I would say the odds lie in the favor of it looking like that. 501 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,080 I'm truly skeptical about the alien thing. 502 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,680 And there are a number of reasons to be skeptical about it. 503 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,640 First of all, let's just do a reality check on this. 504 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,880 There were lots and lots of UFO books 505 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,920 published between the early 1950s and about 1980. 506 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,600 And a number of those played up certain 507 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,320 cases that were taken to be hugely important 508 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,640 and hugely spectacular, including the Betty and Barney Hill abduction case. 509 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,640 Roswell's virtually non-existent in those books. 510 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,120 There are other crashed saucer cases around then. 511 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,094 So I'm skeptical because it just doesn't turn up, 512 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,600 that no information appears to leak from it. 513 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,440 However, you have to keep an open mind. 514 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,400 Me personally, I sit on the fence. 515 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,560 I believe something peculiar happened there. 516 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,360 I don't believe the Weather Balloon or Project Mogul, it doesn't fit. 517 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,680 The evidence that the Air Force have provided 518 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,400 doesn't fit, would not surprise me. 519 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,640 However, if it wasn't something that the military 520 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,720 themselves were experimenting with that was quite gruesome, 521 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,080 hence the reason to keep it quiet. 522 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:34,254 But I don't believe any of the balloon, balloon baloney it's called. 523 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,320 When it comes to UFO cover-ups, if 524 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,120 you think about it from a military perspective, 525 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,520 if you are testing something that for whatever 526 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,240 reason strays into an area where it comes 527 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,200 in contact with the public, the general public, 528 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,280 then the perfect cover-up is to call it a UFO. 529 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,560 Because people would go running around looking for 530 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,120 something that simply didn't exist at that time. 531 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,934 And in reality, it was something that the military had been messing with. 532 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,320 The authorities in any country, it is their 533 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,120 duty to keep secrets in the first place. 534 00:34:17,240 --> 00:34:18,760 That's part of what they do. 535 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,120 So they can keep things very secret. 536 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,240 Things happen that shouldn't. 537 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,920 It would never surprise me that some of the UFO events that we perhaps look at 538 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,200 in different parts of the world are not 539 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,694 something that's man-made and has gone, not as planned, sort of thing. 540 00:34:44,720 --> 00:34:47,520 In the world of British ufology, no case 541 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:51,280 is more enticing than the incident at Rendlesham Forest. 542 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,480 In the 40 years since the alleged extraterrestrial 543 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,600 encounter took place, many researchers have attempted to 544 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,520 uncover the truth surrounding Britain's Roswell. 545 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,960 Investigations into the event has given rise to 546 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:08,240 both sceptical and scientific conclusions, riddled with their 547 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,600 own contradictions. 548 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,960 What gave off these strange lights? 549 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,894 Were they man-made, a natural phenomena, or visitors from a distant world? 550 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,640 One of the things about all the witnesses 551 00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:26,840 at Rendlesham, including Colonel Holt, is their credibility. 552 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:31,720 He wasn't sent to England for an easy ride. 553 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:37,734 He'd been involved with returning prisoners from Vietnam, for example, you know. 554 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,960 So he had a long and illustrious career in the military. 555 00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:43,000 They had all kinds of training, not just 556 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,480 walking around with a dog and a flashlight. 557 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:51,200 You make up your own mind, was this something that the military were testing? 558 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,414 Orford Ness has a history of military testing. 559 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,014 It's where some of the first radar was 560 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,040 tested, beginning in the Second World War, for example. 561 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,614 But would you test something where there's a storage of nuclear weapons? 562 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,640 I'm not so sure you would. 563 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,520 So then you look at the other alternatives. 564 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,040 The sceptics will say that they, over the 565 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,640 three nights, a number of things happened that they all misidentified. 566 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:21,400 There was, you know, the lighthouse, the re-entry of a satellite, or whatever. 567 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:26,134 But the witnesses said, no, I saw this up close and personal. 568 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,520 You know, and I've met the Colonel, listened to what he had to say. 569 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,120 I think it's highly unlikely that he would 570 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:37,320 misidentify anything, let alone the lighthouse. 571 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,720 He went to speak to the lighthouse keeper. 572 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,800 And he says, the lighthouse has three coloured lights on it. 573 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:51,200 The red one goes out to sea, because red means don't come here. 574 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,520 So if you were seeing a red light, you must have been out at sea. 575 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,360 He has no idea what it is. 576 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:57,974 He's gone on the record, he's written an 577 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,560 affidavit, as have many of the other airmen that were involved as well. 578 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,560 One little intriguing thing, as I mentioned, the 579 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,560 first two airmen that went into the woods were Pennyston and Burroughs. 580 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:16,360 Jim Penniston is the one that said they saw a craft, touched it, et cetera. 581 00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:21,040 His colleague, John Burroughs, who was standing just 582 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:26,560 a few yards away, looking at the same thing, said, I never saw any craft. 583 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:27,880 I only saw lights. 584 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,200 Lord Hill Norton, former admiral of the fleet, 585 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,480 said that either these gentlemen saw what they 586 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,894 claimed to have seen, or they were all 587 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,240 under the influence of something illegal. 588 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:51,374 Which either way, surely that must be of defence significance. 589 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,134 Could these unexplainable lights cutting through the darkness 590 00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,840 be more than just phenomena? 591 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,654 Could they be the silent beacons of extraterrestrial 592 00:38:04,720 --> 00:38:07,720 life reaching out across the void? 593 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,520 We just might never actually find out. 594 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,000 Well, originally, of course, you know, it was 595 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,774 fear and superstition that was, you know, that 596 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:25,734 were accountable ghosts, you know, phantoms this, phantom of that. 597 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,760 As we moved into the 20th century, perhaps 598 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,400 they were phantom airships, you know, and as 599 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,494 we moved further into the century, perhaps there 600 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,360 were beings from another world. 601 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,120 But basically, all you're seeing is lights, and 602 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:44,120 it depends on your own perception as to what you make of them. 603 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,240 Studies have been done at various locations. 604 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:55,734 As we mentioned previously, the Ministry of Defence 605 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,520 in the UK did a study on UFOs called the Condine Report. 606 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:07,040 It came to the conclusion that UFOs were unidentified atmospheric phenomena. 607 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,280 In other words, strange balls of light, they're common plasmas. 608 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,280 So the number of scientists and scientific studies 609 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,974 claim that these could be as yet an 610 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,214 unidentified type of aerial phenomena, natural. 611 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,280 But are those, certainly when you look at 612 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,560 Marfa, they think there is a sceptical solution, 613 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:54,334 if you want to go down that route, that it is, you know, caused by traffic 614 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:59,334 cars in the distance, and these lights are somehow reflected in a certain way. 615 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,720 And that's what people are seeing, even though you can't see the cars. 616 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,240 And that could be a possibility. 617 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,840 But when you go to places like Hestaland, 618 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,200 these lights are seen down in the valley. 619 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,520 There's only about 200 people live there. 620 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,800 The locations where they've been seen, there are no roads. 621 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:22,240 And in the winter, it gets down to minus 20, and about 10 feet of snow. 622 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,560 I know I was there in the winter, I can guarantee that. 623 00:40:25,720 --> 00:40:27,640 And they have caught them on radar. 624 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:32,760 They have filmed them, both in movie film, you know, and still photographs. 625 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,054 So there is a very real phenomena there. 626 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,560 Perhaps we are not alone. 627 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:44,120 Perhaps these lights, objects and encounters are glimpses 628 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,774 of a greater cosmic reality, or simply reflections 629 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,854 of our curiosity, our fears, and our imagination. 630 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,654 Until science or transparency brings definitive answers, 631 00:40:58,720 --> 00:41:01,934 the question will remain, what's out there? 632 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,774 The Air Force then said, well, they will 633 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,000 actually crash test dummies, not related to Project Mogul at all. 634 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,454 But we used to have these large wooden 635 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,014 mannequins that we dropped from high altitude, 636 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,280 you know, to test parachutes and so on. 637 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:23,374 But the only thing that was wrong with 638 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,640 that is they didn't start using those until the 1950s. 639 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:31,214 And of course, the Roswell incident happened in 1947. 640 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,654 So they got the wrong decade as well. 641 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:45,480 In all, the Air Force had given out four different aspects of what this was. 642 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,000 First of all, it was a flying disc. 643 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,174 Then no, it was a weather balloon. 644 00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:52,654 Then, oh sorry, no, it was Project Mogul, which was still weather balloons. 645 00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:55,160 Oh, all the dead bodies were crash test dummies. 646 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,040 Oh, we forgot they were from the 1950s. 647 00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:01,960 So they have four different interpretations of what happened. 648 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,854 That's why, one of the many reasons why 649 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,374 people are suspicious of the official version. 650 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,720 The various mysterious lights will probably turn out 651 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,160 to be some kind of atmospheric phenomenon that 652 00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:25,454 as yet is understood by mainstream science, nothing to do with ETs at all. 653 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:28,480 Unknown. 654 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,734 The official position is unknown. 655 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,014 Could these unexplainable lights cutting through the darkness 656 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:37,520 be more than just phenomena? 657 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,054 Could they be the silent beacons of extraterrestrial 658 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,560 life reaching out across the void? 659 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,360 We just might never actually find out. 54803
