We're coming up on the triangle at this time.

Copy that.

Did you see what happened there?

That's registering a positional error

and data corruption.

And it's right above the triangle.

We are getting the 1.6 gigahertz

coming straight from the drill site.

Right now, they cannot get the beacon to sync.

Let's see if they will take the beacon outside

the bubble and see if it syncs.

- It's linked up. - Interesting.

So, this is one of the terrestrial

laser scans of the triangle and...

Wow.

I mean, look at that.

- Right there! - Back up, back up.

The rocket vanishes.

Where did it go?

There is a ranch in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most disturbing occurrences on Earth.

For two decades,

the federal government

investigated the property.

Their findings have never been made public.

Right there. We got something.

Now a new team

of independent scientists and researchers

are taking over.

They are uncovering evidence

that the countless stories...

It came right out of the mesa.

Of unidentified aerial phenomena...

- UAP right there! - Yep.

Bizarre energies...

It looks like there's a heat source right above 'em.

And portals that lead to other dimensions...

We're maybe looking at the anomaly

for the first time, guys.

Might actually be true.

They will stop at nothing to reveal...

The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

Morning, fellas.

Today's a new day, man.

- Well, are you guys ready to go at it again? - Yeah.

- Are we ready to get into the ground? - Yes.

The team from Mark Construction drilling is back out

at the ranch today to continue helping us with one of our

biggest investigations this year:

finding out what's inside the mesa.

Previous GPR scans have shown us

that there's a 400-foot-long object

and several smaller anomalies buried inside there.

So our plan was to drill two boreholes

on either side of the object

and insert scanning devices that can

help us figure out what these anomalies actually are.

Last year, we got the first borehole drilled.

All right, buddy, we're out.

But now we need to widen its diameter by a few inches

so we can send in our equipment.

During our first drilling operation this year,

something kept causing the beacon...

which tracks the direction of the drill bit underground...

to malfunction.

Unbelievable.

What could it be? We're not sure yet.

But the only thing to do is keep pushing.

We just got to get the, the beacon in the head

and we're ready to drill.

I actually stopped out at the main road,

checked the calibration on it.

So you stopped before you came

- through the gate? - Yeah.

And it was working?

- Yeah. - Okay.

We got everything linked up,

calibrated. We're ready to go.

We just got to get that beacon in the head,

get everything tightened on, and just start pushing back in.

- Fantastic. - Let's do it.

When these repeated issues with the drill beacon

started happening, our first thought was

that it was somehow connected to that unknown,

massive object inside the mesa.

But last week, when the drilling beacon suddenly died again,

we realized there might be an even crazier explanation.

A gigantic, invisible bubble or sphere-shaped phenomenon

that we've recently identified

with numerous infrared lidar devices.

We don't know what it is, but it's centered at the spot

we call the triangle and covers a huge area

of the ranch, including the mesa drill site,

where a lot of strange things keep happening.

This right here puts us well outside the bubble.

So when the drilling beacon died again last week,

we took it just outside the western boundary

of the bubble and were stunned when it started working again.

It's linked up.

That's interesting.

I mean, you can't make this stuff up.

So, let's get this beacon put in there,

- and we're ready to go. - Okay, sounds good.

When we make the next attempt to widen

borehole one today,

everyone's crossing their fingers

that the drilling beacon will work properly

and we can punch through the top of the mesa.

At that point, we'll attach a larger bit,

known as a reaming bit, and then pull it back

down through the mesa to enlarge the hole.

Okay, Bearcat, go ahead, start pushing.

I got this.

As long as he gets in there, it'll chase it.

- Okay, it's in the hole. - Cool.

Go ahead, start corkscrewing in.

Hey, guys. You got a copy?

Yeah, Thomas. What's up?

Just wanted to report I'm standing here watching

one length of pipe after another disappear up into the hill.

So we are up into the mesa.

- Yay. - That is fantastic.

I know that myself as well as the whole team have been waiting

to get this hole reamed out to where we can

get scanning devices down inside this hole

and hopefully start to get some more answers about

what could be deep inside the mesa.

Hey, guys, just wanted to give you a status update.

We're 150 feet into the mesa.

Wow.

That's a lot of progress in a short time.

It'll be interesting to see what happens with that beacon

- right at 200 feet. - Yes, it will.

The 200-foot mark is right where we've experienced

a bunch of other malfunctions with the drill.

So Erik and I are wondering could they be connected

to the buried objects in the mesa or the bubble?

Or some combination of both?

Hey, guys, you got a copy?

Yeah, Thomas, go ahead.

We're about to hit that 200-foot mark

where we lost the beacon signal every time last year.

Copy that.

We'll see what happens.

Look at that. Erik, we do

have the 1.2 gigahertz signal.

There's some unidentified source of 1.2 gigahertz right here.

That has never been there before until this year.

Now, this is really strange.

Erik broadcast a 1.2 gigahertz signal two weeks ago

as a baseline signal to monitor during an experiment

focused on the bubble.

He just wanted to see if the signal would be interfered with.

And believe it or not, something or someone

cloned the signal and started broadcasting

a duplicate one back at us.

What in the hell is going on?

And now it's happening again here at about 200 feet

inside the mesa

even though we're not broadcasting any signal.

So where was this one coming from?

Wh... There... Look at this spike right here.

There's two of them, look, they're appearing at 1.603-750

and 1.604-5.

- You see it right there? - Yep. There it is.

And that's in the antenna

pointed right at the drill site.

And we still have that 1.205 one.

So what is doing that?

It was one thing after another.

The two 1.6 gigahertz signals we detected were just as freaky,

because they were coming from the spectrum analyzer antenna

that we had pointed directly at the mesa.

So is it possible that they were coming

from the objects buried inside there?

Thomas, be advised, just as you were coming into

that spot, Travis detected

a couple of signals that just showed up down here.

Literally just showed up.

That's very interesting.

It seems like déjà vu.

Yes, it does.

Copy that. Well, we're gonna keep

going into the hill and see if we can get to the top.

Good luck, man.

I don't know what we're dealing with here.

We have indications that there is something

potentially energetically active within the mesa.

It certainly bears revisiting the question,

what is inside the mesa?

I don't see this taking much longer to come out.

All right.

Hey, guys, you got a copy?

Yeah, Thomas. Go ahead.

We are really close to punching out through the top

- up here. - Okay.

Thanks for that fantastic update, Thomas.

I've seen the drill head come out of the top

of the mesa the very first time.

I can't wait to see it again.

That will be our first indication that we have

a clear pathway from which to start the reaming operation.

He's definitely cutting through some material right here, so...

We can hear it down there churning away.

Yeah.

He's coming right now, so...

Awesome.

The drill bit is through the top.

All right, Bearcat, you're good to go ahead

and start corkscrewing her on out, bud.

Okay, hold that right there, Allan.

We're gonna get that head off.

And we'll get that reamer on and

we'll get to opening this hole for you.

All right. I'm excited to start reaming.

Yeah. I am, too.

After spending more than a year dealing with

the strange setbacks while working

to get borehole one finished,

there was a huge sense of relief

as the drilling team began the reaming process.

Hey, Erik and Travis?

Yeah, go ahead.

They're ready to go ahead and fire up the drill.

The beacon was removed, it turned off,

so it's not gonna be transmitting on the way down.

Thanks for the update, Thomas.

Let's get underway.

Copy that.

Okay, Allan, we've got water.

You can go ahead and start taking her, bud.

Hey, guys, drill bit's rotating

and descending into the hill.

Sounds like the washing machine.

Hey, Erik, look at this.

That's a strange signal.

This is at the beacon frequency.

Okay.

So why are we now getting a beacon frequency

when they are not putting a beacon into the hill?

Unlike the regular drill bit,

which contains a beacon that emits

a 34 megahertz signal,

the reaming bit has no beacon in it.

So there should be no signal for us to detect.

And yet we're getting one that was fluctuating

around that frequency.

So where was it coming from?

This signal is absolutely sending information.

This is between 29 and 35...

megahertz, but where is the source of that signal?

I'm pointed right at the mesa.

Well, that's... whatever's in there.

Hey, guys, we really need to keep an eye on that.

Hey, guys, what's the good news?

Well, it's going. It's moving. Slow.

Whatever we're in right now is, I mean, it's really hard.

Despite the strange signals we detected,

we had really hoped that the reaming process

in borehole one would move fast

since the drillers were simply widening an existing hole.

But when we checked in with the team later that afternoon,

things got even more bizarre.

They're not making a lot of progress

down the hole.

H-How far?

We're about 30, almost 40 feet in.

- Forty feet from the top? - Yeah.

Then y'all haven't made much progress at all, then.

- No, it's real hard. - Dang.

What would be the normal rate?

Normal? Like, I'd say, five to ten foot a minute.

- Wow. - Man.

Okay, there's something unusual going on.

That-that makes no sense. I wonder what's in there

that's causing it to be so difficult to ream.

Yeah,

So at this pace

we're looking at months and months

before we'd break through the bottom.

Do you guys have a plan of...

ways that we could possibly speed it up?

We have different style reamers that we can try

to speed things up.

So does that mean we'll go to a slightly smaller hole then?

- Yeah, the ten-inch hole. - Right now, you're at almost 12?

- Yeah... - So we'd be reducing the diameter by two inches?

Yeah, in fact, some of the instruments we're talking

about putting in are maybe an inch, two inches in diameter.

- Should be fine. - Okay.

We're planning to use specialized devices,

including ground-penetrating radar,

in this borehole to give us a much more detailed picture

of what the believed objects in there actually are.

So we're really hoping we can find some way

to get this borehole completed.

Then we'll go ahead and try that ten-inch,

see if it moves any faster.

Fingers crossed that it does?

Yeah.

- Yeah, good luck, man. - Thanks for that update, man.

Thanks, guys.

While the drilling operation continued at the mesa...

How you doing, man?

- Good to see you, Travis. - Yeah, good to see you, Dave.

We welcomed thermal imaging experts

Dave Mason and Pete Kelsey back

to help us conduct nighttime experiments at the triangle

designed to learn more about the bubble-like anomaly.

So we've got some experiments to do here.

Yeah, it's all about thermal tonight.

- It's thermal. - Thermal and smoke.

Lots of smoke, hopefully.

Our goal is to build some large fires

right here at the triangle that will

generate a bunch of smoke and,

and hopefully fill this area

above us with a lot of fire and a lot of heat.

Who knows what the bubble is, right here above the triangle?

But tonight is another attempt to put

a particulate matter into the space so

that we can map it and watch what it does.

So if there's a structure,

I'm hoping you'll be able to give us an insight into that.

I hope we'll be able to detect it.

Try to smoke it out?

Yep, exactly, that's exactly right.

- Yeah. - I've got the differential

FLIR technology that is not commercially available.

And this will allow us to see very micro

changes of temperature

and look for anything that may be anomalous.

- Love that. - You got the terrestrial laser scanner

- and the SLAM scanner with you? - I do.

Well, then, we should be running that tonight.

Agreed.

Based on our previous experiments,

we believe that the bubble is centered

at the triangle and has a radius of nearly 2,000 feet.

What is it?

And within this area,

we've documented all kinds of strange things.

Holy crap, look at this.

Including unusual radio frequency signals

and numerous UAPs.

Look what just happened there.

Also, Erik has been unable

to obtain GPS data right

in the center at various altitudes above the triangle,

as if some kind of mysterious void exists in that spot.

But this is also

where we obtained high-speed camera images

a couple years ago of a mysterious, cloudy blob

that may have destroyed a rocket.

So tonight we're hoping we can,

as Thomas said, smoke out

some answers about all these things.

We've placed these receptacles

in a place where we hope

the smoke will be drawn right up

to that region that we want it in.

Avalon Fire Department will be here

in a little bit to help make sure that we do this safely.

Yeah, so, let-let's get to work.

- Sounds good. - All right.

I'm praying for a lot of smoke.

Ever since we saw the blob above the triangle,

I thought that building large fires there and creating

a lot of smoke might help us be able to paint

the invisible man, so to speak.

So tonight's exercise where we're gonna have

two large containers with fire is gonna give us the opportunity

to put a lot of smoke up in this space

over a long period of time.

We're getting there.

While the fires fill the air

inside the bubble with smoke,

we're hoping that it will allow us

to see the shape of the bubble

either with our own eyes,

or on our instruments.

Dave Mason will be operating

his specialized FLIR thermal cameras to capture

anything strange that might appear cooler than normal

in what will be a very hot environment.

If he does capture anything,

it could be more evidence that something

of significance is above the triangle.

Meanwhile, Pete will fly

his thermal drone to also look for unusually cold

or hot spots

and operate a terrestrial laser scanner

to hopefully image and confirm the size

and shape of the bubble anomaly.

With some luck, this experiment will help us determine

if the bubble is the source of strange phenomena

that we continually see on the ranch.

Hey, triangle, this is Erik.

Hey Erik, its Travis, go ahead, man.

Hey, man, how you guys doing on setup?

I'm ready here at the command center.

So, we're ready to actually

start the fires if you are.

Copy that. Thanks, man.

While I monitor my spectrum analyzer in the field

for strange energy signals, Erik will be watching everything

on his surveillance system in the command center

which not only includes his own spectrum analyzer,

but also high-speed and night vision camera feeds

from devices that he's placed all around the ranch.

All right, Thomas. I say we light this thing.

Copy that.

If there's anything in that airspace

above the triangle tonight,

my hope is that, with all this smoke,

we're gonna be able to see it.

What the hell?

Hey, Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, go ahead, Travis.

Hey, man, I'm suddenly getting

a signal at 1.2 gigahertz.

Are you seeing anything like that?

I have a very strong peak right at 1.2 gigahertz.

Let's just keep an eye on it through the exercise.

Copy that.

Just as we were about to light our first fire,

I take a look at my spectrum analyzer

and see a 1.2 gigahertz signal.

But we weren't broadcasting it.

So that put me and Erik on high alert

for anything that might appear in the smoke

once we got the fire lit.

All right, guys, we're ready to light this first bin.

Here it goes.

There it goes.

Burn, baby, burn.

There's a lot of heat coming off that now.

Yep.

Well, we're now flooding that zone pretty good.

Yeah, we sure are.

That's a lot, that's a lot of hot air.

You guys ready for us to light the second one?

Light that second fire.

That's all I needed to hear.

All right.

Perfect.

That's a great smoke column.

All right, what the hell is that?

A big cold pocket just forming.

That is weird.

You guys should see this.

This is just weird.

This cold vortex in the heat.

David, that is really interesting.

There's another one.

In the FLIR we're picking up these dark zones.

These cold vortexes in the heat.

And then some of them would just kind of move around.

Look at that.

Yeah, see? Right there. That, yeah, see?

That doesn't make any sense.

It's a cold void.

A cold void that's...

and it's right above the triangle.

We're getting multiple now.

Yeah.

Ooh, ooh.

Whoa.

Cold zones in the heat.

- Whoa, right there. - Yeah, see? Right there.

- That, yeah. - Look at that.

The fires at the triangle

were filling the air with heat and smoke

just like we planned.

But what we couldn't have expected

were the strange cold spots that appeared

in Dave Mason's thermal camera data.

This is just amazing.

And I don't have an explanation for it.

The cold spots that registered

as black or just extremely cold

are in the vicinity of where there would be extreme heat,

and there's no physics explanation for this.

I have never observed this, nor would I expect

to be able to observe this.

This was the strangest thing I've ever seen.

All right, I think I'm gonna put

a rocket up through there.

10-4.

Since we had no idea if the cold spots were physical objects...

I think right there's gonna do it.

I decided to launch a rocket to see

what would happen as it flew

through one of these anomalies.

Everybody, everybody be advised.

At the triangle, we have a rocket is going hot.

Rocket is going hot.

Copy that.

Guys, be advised we're about ready

to go with the rocket launch.

Have all your sensors ready to go.

David,

be paying attention on your differential FLIR, please.

Yeah, roger that, I'm doing that.

In five,

four, three,

two,

one.

Dude, that one went straight up.

Come on, chute.

Eyes on it?

I don't have any eyes on it either.

- Right there. - There it is.

Good chute.

It stopped?

Rocket went straight up, chute has deployed.

And it's sitting still right over the triangle.

- What? - Look at that.

It's not even moving.

It looks like it's floating right over the triangle.

It's not coming down.

Look at that.

It's not even moving now.

It's not moving.

Thomas, look, it ain't falling.

It looks like it's suspended in the air.

It ain't even falling. What the hell?

That is insane.

Now it's moving.

Yeah, it's coming down now.

It's gonna come right down on top of us.

I couldn't tell at the moment what caused it,

but something clearly made that rocket freeze

midair a couple hundred feet high for several seconds.

There was literally no wind at the time that would explain it.

So, could it have been something strange inside

the bubble that held it in place like that?

Look at that, there's that cold thing again.

- Yeah, look at... - You got a vortex.

We're getting stuff here showing up on the differential

where it's just cold temperatures above the flames.

That's fantastic.

And it's repeatable. It keeps doing it.

Yeah, it keeps doing it.

That's great stuff.

You got something repelling it, repelling the heat.

And look how it, like, you can tell how it moves,

like it's resisting.

- Yeah, that's great stuff, man. - Yeah.

When Dave Mason showed me another cold anomaly

that appeared in the smoke above the triangle,

I couldn't believe it. It was huge.

And he was right that it was moving through the smoke,

seemingly pushing the heat away like it was a physical object.

Hey, Erik?

Do you copy?

Yeah, Travis. Go ahead.

Dave's still got, on his differential FLIR,

a cold vortex

going straight up from the flames.

All the way up to probably about 200 feet high.

- Look at that, David. - Look at that.

There it is. Look at that.

I cannot wait to see that.

All right, I'm gonna go set this over and check out

my instruments to see if we're detecting any strange signals.

What we got here?

Hey, Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, Travis,

go ahead.

I'm getting

a signal at 1.6 gigahertz.

I was wondering if you're seeing it,

with any of your equipment.

I'm dialing in on it right now.

So, Travis, I'm looking at the spectrum analyzer.

And I do show a peak

right at 1.60001.

That looks like a communication signal.

That is really interesting.

I'm getting,

a signal at 1.601 gigahertz.

That looks like a communication signal.

Copy that.

Keep an eye on that, please.

Copy that.

Right after we saw another huge cold spot appear in the smoke

right above the center of the triangle,

my spectrum analyzer

started detecting a 1.6 gigahertz signal.

But since that's the frequency that our own military reserves

for Earth-to-space satellite communications,

what or who might have

been trying to communicate with us?

So I think, I think we're at a point where we might as well

douse the fires because there's going to be a lot

- of smoke at the end, right? - Yeah.

And then when they douse it, put it out,

- I'll launch another rocket when the smoke's the biggest. - Okay.

I'll, radio Erik and let him know.

Okay, great. Thanks.

Hey, Erik, um...

we're gonna go ahead and douse these things out,

here in just a minute or two.

You should see quite a bit of smoke coming up off of it.

Copy that, Thomas.

I'm gonna watch when that happens

and then get out there as soon as I can afterwards.

Soon as they get it doused, we'll go.

Okay.

The flames were putting out a lot of smoke.

But we wanted to get even more up into the air

to see if it would reveal any other anomalies

within the bubble before I launched one more rocket.

Smoke looks good.

We're ready to launch.

Copy that. All right.

The rocket is hot, rocket is hot.

All right, Kaleb.

Five, four,

three, two, one.

Dude, that went straight up, too.

- Come on, chute. Did you see that? - Yeah, I saw that.

Holy crap, what was that?

What was that light?

Yeah, did you see that? Where did...?

I lost the rocket completely.

Did the chute open?

It was, like, right next to the rocket.

We heard it hit the ground!

It lawn-darted.

Right after we launched the rocket straight up

above the triangle...

What the crap?

Everyone on the ground saw

a bright bluish-white orb fly by it.

And then the rocket's chute failed to deploy.

I don't know if the two things were connected,

but it was really odd timing.

Erik?

Kaleb, go ahead.

When, when we shot that rocket off...

there was a bright light that went flying right by it.

Did you, by chance, see that?

I did not notice a bright light flying past the rocket.

Hey, Erik. I'm gonna say it was no-no higher than 100 feet.

It was a bright orb,

flew by the rocket right as we launched.

Is that a naked eye observation, or is that through a camera?

Naked eye observation.

It was a bluish-white light.

Copy that. Now, that's dang interesting.

I'll be right out there.

What we all saw tonight

during the experiment was beyond stunning.

Erik, I think we're wrapping up, so,

we could meet and wrap up out here.

But we have a lot of lidar data,

thermal, and Erik's various surveillance videos to review

to see if any of those instruments captured

anything else tonight that might tell us

more about the bubble and all the other

crazy phenomena that keeps happening inside of it.

- Erik. - Some excited voices.

Right when the rocket went up, Erik,

this blue-white orb flew over probably about 100 feet high.

Now, he was doing probably 50 to 80 mile an hour.

All of us saw it.

We got everything running.

Something had to have captured that.

Yeah, we will have a record of that.

And I got to tell you, when we, when we look at the plume,

when we look at the smoke, we're gonna see

brief periods of time

when there's structure in that smoke that is

very reminiscent of what we like to call the blob.

He caught many of those.

I caught those in the differential FLIR.

And we were seeing in the heat plumes, we were seeing

these cold zones, circular patterns,

appearing in the heat.

- And they were cold. - Black. Black cold.

Black cold. I mean, just, just black.

He has some fascinating stuff.

What is going on?

So who wants to stay up and help me scrub

through data tonight?

I cannot wait to look through all that

to find what that was.

What's going on?

Well, you know what they say...

where there's smoke there's fire, so we're gonna be looking

at the data coming out of that smoke

and fire experiment that we did.

Yeah. There was a lot going on.

After processing our data

the following morning and most of the day,

Erik gathered us in the command center to review it.

And we could all tell

by his expression that he found

a lot more incredible stuff for us to analyze together.

Well, I can't wait to dive in on this.

You know, quite a bit of data to review.

I've got video footage from so many different perspectives

across the ranch.

You know,

not surprisingly, one of the interesting things we got

was actually before we got into the experiment proper.

During the setup.

You mean when we were

detecting that 1.2 gigahertz signal?

Yeah.

Let me bring it up.

Okay.

Yeah, so we're looking at color night vision footage

of the mesa.

And, the area of interest, really, is gonna be up here.

Now I'm gonna take us forward. You're gonna see...

and I'll zoom in on it...

you're gonna see some things happening

up here in this part of the screen.

Right here.

And there it is. There it is.

What is that?

Okay, and this kind of thing

really illustrates the challenge we face

whenever we see stuff over the mesa.

It's really hard to make out any kind of form to it.

Yeah, that one's

not an aircraft or a drone.

That's all I can say about that one.

The possible UAP that Erik captured

on his night vision surveillance camera

during our experiment

was flying too low to be a satellite.

And it was definitely not maneuvering like a plane.

So, what was it?

Where did it come from?

And could it have been related to the mysterious

1.2 gigahertz signal that we detected when it showed up?

You know what really stands out for me?

It's the rate of travel.

It's traveling faster than a satellite typically does,

and it's not an airplane.

That's right.

There's no strobe.

- Yeah. - Now I want to jump into

the rest of the experiment.

Remember, after we got the fires going,

we did do a rocket launch.

I've got some video content

that David Mason has shared with us

from his differential thermal FLIR system.

We do see the rocket in this video sequence,

but there's also another feature that you may remember

he was drawing our attention to,

and it was a cold zone.

- I remember that. - That cold zone was there almost all night.

- It was really weird. - Yeah.

I'm just gonna let this play through.

So, you can see the two fire bins on either side

and the hot smoke rising.

But for some reason you got these dark, cold zones

right about where the blob was.

As we review the data from the smoke-fire experiment

in the triangle, it's crazy to think

that these cold spots were right above me.

There was so much heat in that area.

I don't even see how that's possible.

To have these cold spots,

what could possibly be going on here?

You know, we sat there all night with that... those fires burning

and the smoke going.

And that spot of coldness

stayed right there

above the triangle.

That stayed there.

What anchored that to that spot?

And it lasted for a long time.

I say

there's an effect there and it's real.

But what the hell is it? I don't know.

I have

no explanation for that.

But I've got a few things I wanted to show you all.

Okay.

This is the triangle.

This is the SLAM lidar scanner.

This, to me, was the most interesting one.

The first thing that I thought was cool is lidar can see smoke.

Look at that. That is cool.

Wow.

Well, it's really interesting

that we have such a sharp boundary,

such a sharp line defining...

Do you see that upper left corner?

Yeah, that's true.

Almost like it was kept inside the triangle for some reason.

I was just gonna say.

- That's what I'm seeing. - Yeah. Yeah.

Look at the boundary t... on the east.

To the triangle, yeah.

Look at the triangle around it.

That's weird.

Yeah, why is that a straight edge,

like there's a boundary that the smoke just stops at?

What the hell in that space is bounding

the flow of smoke?

That's pretty crazy.

To find some structure

in the smoke,

honestly, this is not what I'm expecting to see.

We don't claim to know the physics at this point.

We don't even know how this is possible.

Clearly, there's something going on,

and that something is real.

What that something is remains to be determined,

but I want to find out.

Well, check this out.

If you rotate this and look at it from the south,

there was something that looked quite solid

sort of poking out of that cloud.

The feature that first caught my eye...

because it appears to be more solid...

- was actually in this area here. - Yeah.

All right,

I'm gonna point and you tell me

where Dave's feature, his cold spot, was located.

You can stop in height, but you need to go to the west.

Stop right there.

- Right there? - Yep.

That's where the big cold spot, or vortex, was.

That's crazy.

- Yeah. - They look similar,

now that I'm looking at it.

Wow.

That is wild.

There's clearly structure right in there

that's more dense, or has more particle points,

than the rest of the cloud.

How do you get such coherent structure in smoke?

That's crazy.

Between the cold spot that Dave Mason captured

in his thermal camera

and the features in the smoke

that both Erik and Pete Kelsey picked out in the lidar data,

it made us wonder if there could be multiple anomalies

at the center of the bubble.

But if so,

what are they and what purpose do they have?

I'll bring up another one.

Another scan.

And this... I remember

this last scan was running

when we saw something in the sky.

Now, was this when we launched that last rocket?

Yes. But that

was over the mesa.

And right now

we're looking towards the east field.

Everybody saw a blue ball of light

fly across the property,

probably about 50 to 100 feet high.

Do you see any returns from that on any of the lidar data?

Well, check this out.

What is this dot right here,

floating in the air?

- Over here? - Right there.

There it is.

What is this dot right here, floating

in the air?

Everybody on the ground saw this.

- It was so bright. - PETE: Yeah. - That's right.

We captured

whatever this thing was with the lidar.

Yeah.

We're talking about

a visible light phenomenon

with so many witnesses.

What is this dot right here?

I fully expected to have

multiple angles of whatever this object was

in the video record.

But, clearly,

while none of the camera assets

caught this thing in the field of view...

- I was convinced we would've had it in multiple cameras. - Yes.

We do have a potential match

to that very bright light

in the lidar data.

How is that possible?

Maybe there's a connection to the bubble.

I'm not gonna pretend to understand

what's going on there,

but I'm anxious to see

what comes out of the rest of the data.

We did a lot of scans.

I'm just gonna show you one more,

because this is the really interesting one.

I'll just come around to the launch site.

Okay, so what are we looking at right there?

This, I believe, is the rocket.

The rocket?

This is a total mystery once again.

In almost the same spot in over 25 scans now,

there's been something in that direction

giving me returns,

going well up into the sky.

- Is that the edge of the bubble? - Yes.

All right. So this is looking straight up.

Straight up. - Yeah, this is looking straight up. And there's the top

of the bubble. You can see the rings.

Look here. It's...

You can see this ring right here. There's the central point.

There's another ring here and there.

Look, here's-here's an outer ring here.

You can still see it.

You can see the walls of the bubble.

- Yeah. - Look. See?

Here's... Here it is. Look. You can see the walls.

You can see it.

The lidar picked it up again.

Our fires

and smoke certainly gave us

more data on possible anomalies above the triangle.

But just like Pete's lidar data from one year ago,

we now have repeatable hard evidence

that a massive bubble-shaped phenomenon

is encompassing the entire area.

Now we've got to figure out an experiment

to determine what it is

and what these weird things inside of it could be.

This was a fascinating experiment.

- Yeah. - We've got a cold blob floating in the air that doesn't move.

We've got people seeing blue orbs.

And we got,

lidar picking up a bubble around us.

That's crazy.

So, Erik, maybe you were right.

Where there's smoke, there is fire.

This time for sure. And more.

- Yes. - So, after looking at all the data, you know, I wonder,

what follow-up do we feel is appropriate?

I'm gonna reach out to LOC Precision

and see if they have some slightly larger rockets.

Large enough, we could put better instruments in.

And maybe we could plan an experiment around that.

So that we could do a launch and track the launch

all the way up and then all the way back down, right?

And not only that, we put high-speed cameras,

maybe some long time exposures. You know,

- whatever we can think of, we'll-we'll throw at it. - Yeah.

- All right, guys. - All right. I'm gonna leave you with it, Erik.

That was amazing.

We've seen the cold spots

and other interesting features above the container fire,

which, quite frankly, I don't fully understand.

You know, we're just continuing to see activity in that region.

So my hope is that,

as we continue to collect the data,

we will have a better understanding

of what we're dealing with here.

I'm convinced that whatever's surrounding the triangle

could be the key to identifying all the phenomena

we keep seeing in the air.

And, who knows, if we can crack this mystery,

it might also help give us the answer

to what's inside the mesa.

For years, the mysterious triangle

has continued to be a center of gravity

for high strangeness

and some of the most compelling evidence

observed and documented at Skinwalker Ranch.

As we commence this next chapter of the investigation,

the triangle and its region continue to baffle us

and hold secrets that have yet to be revealed.

We see the triangle

as potentially the key to finding answers

as to what may lie above Skinwalker Ranch.
