1
00:00:00,007 --> 00:00:02,820
UFOs with extraordinary
capabilities are present in our skies,

2
00:00:02,845 --> 00:00:05,601
according to a team of former
US Government insiders.

3
00:00:05,626 --> 00:00:08,754
This program features
military eyewitnesses

4
00:00:08,779 --> 00:00:11,571
describing these unidentified
craft for the first time.

5
00:00:12,426 --> 00:00:14,428
Tonight,
on Unidentified:

6
00:00:15,841 --> 00:00:16,997
Oh my gosh, dude!

7
00:00:17,022 --> 00:00:18,145
There's a whole fleet of them.

8
00:00:18,170 --> 00:00:19,304
I'll never forget
those voices.

9
00:00:19,329 --> 00:00:21,172
You know those voices?
I know those guys, yeah.

10
00:00:21,348 --> 00:00:23,148
If I hadn't seen
it with my own eyes,

11
00:00:23,173 --> 00:00:24,844
I don't know if I would've
believed it either.

12
00:00:24,869 --> 00:00:27,462
It was basically a sphere
with a cube inside.

13
00:00:27,487 --> 00:00:30,165
So now, these objects
have a global presence.

14
00:00:30,190 --> 00:00:31,626
That thing is
hauling ass.

15
00:00:31,651 --> 00:00:32,652
Exactly my point.

16
00:00:33,733 --> 00:00:35,190
The Pentagon
has confirmed the existence

17
00:00:35,215 --> 00:00:37,908
of the Advanced Aerospace
Threat Identification Program

18
00:00:37,933 --> 00:00:40,175
that studied UFOs and
they released video.

19
00:00:40,781 --> 00:00:42,495
They're
going against the wind.

20
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:43,847
My gosh!

21
00:00:44,756 --> 00:00:45,849
For eight years,

22
00:00:45,874 --> 00:00:50,177
Lue Elizondo ran a secret UFO
Program for the US Military.

23
00:00:50,202 --> 00:00:52,881
But in 2017, he quit in protest.

24
00:00:53,202 --> 00:00:55,037
I put my entire
future on the line

25
00:00:55,062 --> 00:00:56,623
because I believe in
what I believe in.

26
00:00:56,926 --> 00:00:58,387
Now he's
joining an elite group

27
00:00:58,412 --> 00:01:00,497
of former government insiders.

28
00:01:00,530 --> 00:01:03,957
Their mission, reveal what they
say is the truth about UFOs.

29
00:01:04,263 --> 00:01:06,912
US airspace is
being violated by vehicles

30
00:01:06,937 --> 00:01:09,169
of unknown origins with
advanced capabilities.

31
00:01:10,482 --> 00:01:11,554
This is real
and we're gonna

32
00:01:11,579 --> 00:01:12,733
get to the bottom of it.

33
00:01:12,758 --> 00:01:14,989
If people knew these
unidentified vehicles

34
00:01:15,014 --> 00:01:18,446
are operating within
minutes of the DC area,

35
00:01:18,713 --> 00:01:20,228
they would say, "excuse me,

36
00:01:20,253 --> 00:01:22,120
isn't this something we
ought to pay attention to?"

37
00:01:38,660 --> 00:01:39,787
How's our friend?

38
00:01:40,138 --> 00:01:40,802
Is he okay?

39
00:01:40,974 --> 00:01:42,170
He's really nervous.

40
00:01:42,195 --> 00:01:44,115
We've got him set up in a motel nearby.

41
00:01:44,140 --> 00:01:44,662
Sure.

42
00:01:44,687 --> 00:01:46,054
This is a big moment for him.

43
00:01:46,086 --> 00:01:47,202
He's going to be the first guy

44
00:01:47,227 --> 00:01:48,617
on his ship to come out.

45
00:01:48,642 --> 00:01:51,186
He has expressed his
desire to have a conversation

46
00:01:51,211 --> 00:01:54,117
about something that seems
almost extraordinary.

47
00:01:54,659 --> 00:01:55,948
Can certainly make you nervous.

48
00:01:56,621 --> 00:01:58,455
Lue Elizondo
is on his way to meet

49
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,049
an active duty
Navy fighter pilot,

50
00:02:00,366 --> 00:02:02,566
who has agreed to disclose,
for the first time,

51
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:05,897
details of an extraordinary
series of UFO encounters,

52
00:02:06,103 --> 00:02:09,464
captured on video over the
Atlantic Ocean in 2015.

53
00:02:10,353 --> 00:02:12,855
With Elizondo is veteran
Navy pilot, David Fravor,

54
00:02:13,347 --> 00:02:15,142
who says he had a
similar UFO encounter

55
00:02:15,274 --> 00:02:17,220
in 2004, over the Pacific.

56
00:02:17,620 --> 00:02:19,812
It's great that he's
agreed to talk with us.

57
00:02:20,144 --> 00:02:22,086
I would start with what
he was doing that day.

58
00:02:22,214 --> 00:02:23,382
Let him tell his story.

59
00:02:30,641 --> 00:02:31,508
Hey Ryan, how are you?

60
00:02:31,533 --> 00:02:32,836
I'm Lou.
Nice to meet you, Lou.

61
00:02:32,861 --> 00:02:34,407
It's taken
weeks of negotiating

62
00:02:34,432 --> 00:02:35,767
to convince the pilot to talk.

63
00:02:36,028 --> 00:02:39,252
Appreciate you taking
the time to speak with us.

64
00:02:40,248 --> 00:02:41,434
Elizondo
hopes having one

65
00:02:41,459 --> 00:02:43,084
of the most respected
pilots in the Navy

66
00:02:43,109 --> 00:02:45,537
with him will put the
younger pilot at ease.

67
00:02:45,871 --> 00:02:46,705
Two V one, huh?

68
00:02:46,995 --> 00:02:48,246
That's not a fair fight.

69
00:02:49,428 --> 00:02:51,180
Lieutenant Ryan
Graves has spent a decade

70
00:02:51,205 --> 00:02:53,807
training Navy pilots and
flying bombing missions.

71
00:02:54,507 --> 00:02:56,134
As a combat section lead,

72
00:02:56,251 --> 00:02:58,461
he twice deployed to the
Middle East and holds

73
00:02:58,571 --> 00:03:00,094
a degree in aerospace
engineering.

74
00:03:00,135 --> 00:03:01,681
Go ahead; let's
start from the beginning.

75
00:03:01,747 --> 00:03:03,220
Well, simply put,
I don't really know

76
00:03:03,245 --> 00:03:04,106
where the beginning is.

77
00:03:05,890 --> 00:03:07,591
In
the summer of 2014,

78
00:03:08,006 --> 00:03:10,913
Lieutenant Graves was based out
of Naval Air Station Oceana,

79
00:03:11,199 --> 00:03:12,132
in Virginia Beach.

80
00:03:15,607 --> 00:03:17,964
Lieutenant Graves says his
squadron, the Red Rippers,

81
00:03:18,684 --> 00:03:21,521
was running training exercises
up and down the East coast,

82
00:03:21,948 --> 00:03:24,293
when they started to pick
up mysterious radar tracks.

83
00:03:24,318 --> 00:03:25,729
We didn't really
think a lot of 'em,

84
00:03:25,754 --> 00:03:27,658
other than the fact that
maybe they were just,

85
00:03:28,753 --> 00:03:30,902
just part of
the radar itself,

86
00:03:30,927 --> 00:03:33,128
not necessarily natural,
physical object.

87
00:03:33,235 --> 00:03:34,884
Was there any difference
between the aircraft

88
00:03:34,909 --> 00:03:40,064
you were flying in 2015, versus
what he was flying in 2004?

89
00:03:40,551 --> 00:03:43,449
We had upgraded
electronics, radar systems.

90
00:03:43,474 --> 00:03:45,018
It's a generational difference.

91
00:03:45,043 --> 00:03:45,871
It's a big deal.
Is it,

92
00:03:45,896 --> 00:03:47,761
Huge, huge increase
in capability.

93
00:03:48,617 --> 00:03:49,868
The pilots
wondered if their

94
00:03:49,893 --> 00:03:51,533
new radar system
was malfunctioning,

95
00:03:51,721 --> 00:03:54,697
until they saw one of the
unidentified objects up close.

96
00:03:55,177 --> 00:03:56,510
Walk me through that moment.

97
00:03:56,535 --> 00:03:58,369
Were you there or was it
one of your colleagues?

98
00:03:58,473 --> 00:03:59,527
It was one of my colleagues,

99
00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:01,370
so I didn't hear about
it until they landed.

100
00:04:01,526 --> 00:04:04,726
Did he give you
size, color, texture?

101
00:04:04,792 --> 00:04:07,127
It was basically a
cube, inside of a sphere,

102
00:04:07,152 --> 00:04:08,416
where the points of the cube

103
00:04:08,629 --> 00:04:11,041
were touching
outside the sphere.

104
00:04:13,194 --> 00:04:14,543
You've got now two
different things.

105
00:04:14,568 --> 00:04:16,716
You guys got cubes with balls,
where on the West coast,

106
00:04:16,741 --> 00:04:17,833
we got flying Tic-Tacs.

107
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,334
You'll sometimes get phantom tracks where,

108
00:04:22,661 --> 00:04:24,141
it's seeing something that's not there.

109
00:04:24,166 --> 00:04:25,898
That's what we thought when
they're working for

110
00:04:25,923 --> 00:04:27,751
some of the time, until
you see them physically.

111
00:04:27,853 --> 00:04:29,431
The entire of them with your eyeballs.

112
00:04:29,799 --> 00:04:31,924
It's not like I'm seeing
a bright, physical object.

113
00:04:32,003 --> 00:04:34,594
I'm literally just seeing
a flash shine out there.

114
00:04:34,946 --> 00:04:36,602
Wherever we were,
they were there,

115
00:04:36,627 --> 00:04:38,073
so that could mean two things.

116
00:04:38,098 --> 00:04:39,840
That could mean they
were already there,

117
00:04:39,984 --> 00:04:41,621
or they were following
the strike group.

118
00:04:42,835 --> 00:04:46,057
By 2015, Lieutenant
Graves claims his pilots

119
00:04:46,408 --> 00:04:49,338
were encountering bizarre craft
almost every time they flew.

120
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:50,971
You know it's one thing

121
00:04:50,996 --> 00:04:52,525
if one person sees
one of these objects.

122
00:04:52,616 --> 00:04:53,787
I'm like okay, that's crazy.

123
00:04:54,362 --> 00:04:56,480
But when you go up there
every day and you see 'em,

124
00:04:56,505 --> 00:04:58,737
and your brothers and
sisters in other squadrons

125
00:04:58,762 --> 00:05:00,760
are seeing them, it's
like, okay, well,

126
00:05:00,785 --> 00:05:03,382
this is probably some
type of maybe drone thing

127
00:05:03,407 --> 00:05:04,809
or something that
they're testing out.

128
00:05:05,818 --> 00:05:07,778
It wasn't until someone
actually saw one go

129
00:05:07,803 --> 00:05:10,200
in between two aircraft,
at a close range,

130
00:05:10,225 --> 00:05:11,599
probably within 150 feet,

131
00:05:11,687 --> 00:05:13,638
that it was starting
to get worrisome.

132
00:05:14,875 --> 00:05:16,812
Lieutenant Graves
says when one of the objects

133
00:05:16,991 --> 00:05:18,882
nearly caused a terrifying
mid-air collision,

134
00:05:20,222 --> 00:05:23,401
senior pilots in his
squadron decided to act.

135
00:05:24,728 --> 00:05:26,751
At this point, we're like,
something needs to be done.

136
00:05:27,054 --> 00:05:29,757
We submitted a safety report
to the Navy Safety Center.

137
00:05:30,259 --> 00:05:32,119
They'd been seeing these
things for two months.

138
00:05:32,144 --> 00:05:33,431
Multiple people have seen 'em,

139
00:05:33,456 --> 00:05:34,674
multiple people
have tracked 'em.

140
00:05:34,891 --> 00:05:36,471
You get one that
splits a section.

141
00:05:37,437 --> 00:05:40,187
Enough to send out your mishap
report to safety center.

142
00:05:41,114 --> 00:05:44,184
Did anyone contact you
and say, what is going on?

143
00:05:44,209 --> 00:05:44,715
No.

144
00:05:44,740 --> 00:05:46,512
No investigation,
no nothing?

145
00:05:46,537 --> 00:05:46,951
No.

146
00:05:49,797 --> 00:05:51,453
We have a video
I'd like you to see.

147
00:05:51,578 --> 00:05:54,266
Without telling you
anything about it,

148
00:05:54,366 --> 00:05:56,125
I'm gonna be curious
your thoughts

149
00:05:56,442 --> 00:05:58,467
and you can tell
me what you see.

150
00:05:58,998 --> 00:06:01,037
These three
UFO videos were released

151
00:06:01,062 --> 00:06:01,826
by the Pentagon.

152
00:06:02,181 --> 00:06:04,587
The one on the left has
already been identified

153
00:06:05,032 --> 00:06:07,159
as the 2004 incident
involving David Fravor.

154
00:06:08,339 --> 00:06:10,625
The source of the other two
had remained a mystery.

155
00:06:12,538 --> 00:06:14,475
Whoa! Got it!

156
00:06:15,326 --> 00:06:17,561
This video has
come to be know as Go Fast,

157
00:06:17,900 --> 00:06:20,302
and shows an object speeding
just above the water.

158
00:06:22,733 --> 00:06:24,101
The other
is known as Gimbal.

159
00:06:25,281 --> 00:06:28,383
The sensor is on a Gimbal
underneath the aircraft

160
00:06:28,408 --> 00:06:30,236
and it can rotate
to maintain a track.

161
00:06:31,322 --> 00:06:32,509
There're going againts the wind.

162
00:06:32,681 --> 00:06:34,337
My gosh!

163
00:06:35,197 --> 00:06:36,939
There's a whole fleet of them.
Look on the ASA.

164
00:06:39,811 --> 00:06:41,051
I'll never forget
those voices.

165
00:06:41,076 --> 00:06:42,561
You know those voices?
Yeah.

166
00:06:42,586 --> 00:06:44,249
It's a breakthrough
in the investigation.

167
00:06:45,034 --> 00:06:47,119
For the first time, a
pilot has confirmed that

168
00:06:47,144 --> 00:06:50,062
the two unidentified
videos, Gimbal and Go Fast,

169
00:06:50,455 --> 00:06:52,608
were taken by Navy jets
from the Theodore Roosevelt.

170
00:06:52,701 --> 00:06:54,405
We're getting
ready for deployment,

171
00:06:54,430 --> 00:06:56,766
so, we do workups along
the Eastern seaboard.

172
00:06:57,524 --> 00:06:59,180
And these objects
kind of came with us.

173
00:06:59,547 --> 00:07:00,945
Lieutenant
Graves says both Gimbal

174
00:07:00,970 --> 00:07:03,187
and Go Fast were filmed
within weeks of each other,

175
00:07:03,369 --> 00:07:05,515
over the Atlantic, off
Jacksonville, Florida.

176
00:07:07,694 --> 00:07:09,783
And as Lieutenant Graves
squadron was preparing

177
00:07:09,808 --> 00:07:11,245
to deploy to the Middle East,

178
00:07:11,636 --> 00:07:13,698
they were seeing so
many mysterious objects,

179
00:07:14,201 --> 00:07:16,861
they started sharing the videos
when they got back on ship.

180
00:07:16,947 --> 00:07:18,513
They were obviously
very excited about

181
00:07:18,538 --> 00:07:20,451
what happened and then
they were heading down

182
00:07:20,476 --> 00:07:22,154
to watch the full
videos in its entirely.

183
00:07:22,260 --> 00:07:24,389
If there's parts of this
video that we can talk about

184
00:07:24,499 --> 00:07:26,681
that aren't here, let's
walk through that.

185
00:07:27,168 --> 00:07:29,965
So this object was
significantly larger

186
00:07:29,990 --> 00:07:31,731
than the ones we
were used to seeing.

187
00:07:31,756 --> 00:07:33,637
Lieutenant
Graves says the Gimbal video

188
00:07:33,923 --> 00:07:36,106
is just part of a longer,
higher-resolution video

189
00:07:36,131 --> 00:07:37,381
he was shown on the ship.

190
00:07:37,925 --> 00:07:39,681
It included several
smaller craft,

191
00:07:39,950 --> 00:07:41,534
the kind he was
more familiar with.

192
00:07:42,474 --> 00:07:44,636
They were essentially flying
themselves in a formation.

193
00:07:45,489 --> 00:07:46,973
And then, behind those

194
00:07:47,622 --> 00:07:50,184
was the object that you see here

195
00:07:50,353 --> 00:07:52,540
and I'm not the world's
greatest drawer--

196
00:07:52,565 --> 00:07:53,915
That's okay.
But as you can see here,

197
00:07:53,940 --> 00:07:55,409
it almost looks like a
gyroscope, right,

198
00:07:55,434 --> 00:07:56,368
the way it moves.

199
00:07:56,393 --> 00:07:57,948
Mm-hmm.
The points coming out

200
00:07:57,973 --> 00:08:00,145
of the top and bottom
would appear to be a disc

201
00:08:00,170 --> 00:08:02,106
or at least a central
mass on the object.

202
00:08:02,438 --> 00:08:05,266
So, these objects were
proceeding in one direction.

203
00:08:05,935 --> 00:08:08,271
The five, at some point,

204
00:08:08,466 --> 00:08:09,926
basically just turned
themselves around,

205
00:08:09,951 --> 00:08:11,919
with some type of radius
to turn as a unit,

206
00:08:12,687 --> 00:08:14,022
and started flying
that direction.

207
00:08:14,584 --> 00:08:16,976
At this time, it's pretty
much where you see this video,

208
00:08:17,310 --> 00:08:18,733
where these are now
out of the picture

209
00:08:18,881 --> 00:08:20,575
and it's just this
guy that's stationary.

210
00:08:21,095 --> 00:08:22,661
Is that why they refer to them

211
00:08:22,686 --> 00:08:23,895
as there's a whole
fleet of them?

212
00:08:24,061 --> 00:08:24,520
Yup.
Okay.

213
00:08:24,816 --> 00:08:26,303
So there wasn't a
whole fleet of these.

214
00:08:26,328 --> 00:08:27,685
There was just all
these little guys.

215
00:08:27,873 --> 00:08:29,078
And then, there's
the one object,

216
00:08:29,103 --> 00:08:30,258
which we had never seen before,

217
00:08:30,283 --> 00:08:31,508
which was significantly larger.

218
00:08:32,308 --> 00:08:34,197
Lieutenant Graves
says the way the larger craft

219
00:08:34,222 --> 00:08:37,462
suddenly rotates at 90
degrees is unlike anything

220
00:08:37,487 --> 00:08:38,416
he had ever seen.

221
00:08:38,535 --> 00:08:40,213
Look at that thing.

222
00:08:40,238 --> 00:08:41,129
It's rotating.

223
00:08:42,243 --> 00:08:43,727
It's just basic
airplane physics.

224
00:08:43,854 --> 00:08:46,282
When your wings are underneath
you and you're flying along,

225
00:08:46,307 --> 00:08:47,509
you have 100% of your lift.

226
00:08:48,249 --> 00:08:50,698
And if you turn yourself
all the way like this,

227
00:08:50,882 --> 00:08:52,897
kind of knife-blading,
you have none of the lift

228
00:08:52,922 --> 00:08:54,147
that your wings
would provide you.

229
00:08:54,202 --> 00:08:56,960
So the fact that he would just
get himself on his wingtip,

230
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,889
with no turn, while staying
at exact same point,

231
00:09:00,834 --> 00:09:02,310
isn't how aircraft work.

232
00:09:03,086 --> 00:09:05,888
Ryan Graves is an
aerospace engineer

233
00:09:05,992 --> 00:09:07,146
when he's not a pilot.

234
00:09:07,528 --> 00:09:10,301
So, when Ryan is telling
you that there is something

235
00:09:10,326 --> 00:09:12,777
up there that he doesn't
know how it works,

236
00:09:13,285 --> 00:09:15,089
and it is not one
of our aircraft,

237
00:09:16,839 --> 00:09:17,636
you need to listen.

238
00:09:18,249 --> 00:09:20,686
What's fascinating and
interesting about these objects

239
00:09:20,711 --> 00:09:22,577
is that they're up
there when we take off,

240
00:09:23,109 --> 00:09:24,781
they're doing their
thing for one hour

241
00:09:24,806 --> 00:09:26,617
and half,
maybe two hour flight,

242
00:09:27,162 --> 00:09:29,937
and then we land and
my buddy that takes off

243
00:09:29,962 --> 00:09:31,579
an hour later is
seeing the same things.

244
00:09:32,852 --> 00:09:33,576
This is important.

245
00:09:34,316 --> 00:09:36,406
Now we're looking at something
that can stay stationary

246
00:09:36,431 --> 00:09:39,500
over a geographic point
and 120 knots of wind.

247
00:09:40,170 --> 00:09:41,823
They're all
going against the wind.

248
00:09:41,848 --> 00:09:43,404
The wind's 120
knots to the west.

249
00:09:43,889 --> 00:09:45,020
Can rotate around

250
00:09:46,067 --> 00:09:48,129
then
can accelerate above supersonic.

251
00:09:48,402 --> 00:09:49,589
As a top gun guy,

252
00:09:50,846 --> 00:09:52,636
have you seen something
like that before?

253
00:09:53,215 --> 00:09:53,862
No.

254
00:09:54,229 --> 00:09:57,848
No, I'm, I'm pretty
baffled right now.

255
00:09:59,137 --> 00:10:00,731
Coming up on Unidentified

256
00:10:01,606 --> 00:10:04,770
What Lieutenant Graves says
next stuns Elizondo and Fravor.

257
00:10:05,410 --> 00:10:06,762
At least 50 or
60 people saw 'em.

258
00:10:06,787 --> 00:10:08,347
I've talked to people
from other squadrons

259
00:10:08,372 --> 00:10:09,394
and it's the same story.

260
00:10:09,564 --> 00:10:10,758
And ever
more startling is where

261
00:10:10,783 --> 00:10:12,547
the UFOs appeared next.

262
00:10:19,919 --> 00:10:22,559
There are people out
there that you know right now

263
00:10:22,584 --> 00:10:24,731
that you could pick up the
phone and they would say,

264
00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:28,546
yeah, that was something that
we routinely encountered.

265
00:10:28,835 --> 00:10:30,514
Oh yeah, at least
50 or 60, yeah.

266
00:10:30,706 --> 00:10:32,561
50 or 60 individuals?
Easily.

267
00:10:34,056 --> 00:10:36,115
Lue Elizondo and
veteran Navy fighter pilot,

268
00:10:36,140 --> 00:10:38,548
David Fravor, are
learning new details about

269
00:10:38,573 --> 00:10:40,407
an extraordinary case
caught on camera.

270
00:10:45,309 --> 00:10:47,699
Active duty Navy
pilot Lieutenant Ryan Graves

271
00:10:48,167 --> 00:10:50,294
says a fleet of UFOs
followed his carrier

272
00:10:50,357 --> 00:10:52,348
from the summer of 2014

273
00:10:53,147 --> 00:10:54,364
into 2015,

274
00:10:54,958 --> 00:10:55,903
off the East coast,

275
00:10:57,642 --> 00:10:59,395
The reason Lieutenant
Graves is speaking out

276
00:10:59,420 --> 00:11:02,395
is because he's concerned
about his comrades

277
00:11:02,582 --> 00:11:04,544
and he's concerned about
national security.

278
00:11:05,283 --> 00:11:08,754
And he's seeing a system
which is failing to react.

279
00:11:09,165 --> 00:11:11,324
Chris Mellon
is a former Deputy Assistant

280
00:11:11,349 --> 00:11:12,985
Secretary of Defense
for Intelligence.

281
00:11:13,212 --> 00:11:16,493
If people in the DC area
knew that within minutes

282
00:11:17,261 --> 00:11:20,068
of their location, these
unidentified vehicles

283
00:11:20,093 --> 00:11:23,269
are operating seemingly
without regard to

284
00:11:23,469 --> 00:11:25,462
our air defense capabilities,

285
00:11:25,993 --> 00:11:26,734
operating at will,

286
00:11:26,759 --> 00:11:28,484
just minutes from
the nation's capital,

287
00:11:28,509 --> 00:11:31,514
I think they would
say, "uh, excuse me,

288
00:11:31,539 --> 00:11:33,454
isn't this something we
ought to pay attention to?"

289
00:11:35,124 --> 00:11:37,031
The incidents had
disturbed Lieutenant Graves

290
00:11:37,056 --> 00:11:38,100
and his fellow pilots,

291
00:11:38,909 --> 00:11:40,571
but what happened in
the months following,

292
00:11:41,019 --> 00:11:42,571
would raise the
stakes even higher.

293
00:11:44,518 --> 00:11:47,613
In March 2015, the Theodore
Roosevelt was deployed

294
00:11:47,638 --> 00:11:50,255
to the Arabian
Gulf, when suddenly,

295
00:11:50,449 --> 00:11:52,997
Lieutenant Graves says,
the UFOs reappeared.

296
00:11:53,187 --> 00:11:54,949
We did have issues with
them when we actually

297
00:11:54,974 --> 00:11:56,051
went out to the Middle East.

298
00:11:56,076 --> 00:11:58,035
Not in the transit, but
once we actually settled

299
00:11:58,060 --> 00:11:59,340
out into the Middle East.

300
00:12:03,405 --> 00:12:04,443
In the Middle East,

301
00:12:05,247 --> 00:12:07,139
one of the targets
of US firepower

302
00:12:07,478 --> 00:12:09,259
was the Russian Allied
Syrian government.

303
00:12:10,571 --> 00:12:13,071
Were the unidentified objects
tracking the Navy jets,

304
00:12:13,508 --> 00:12:15,570
actually next generation
Russian drones?

305
00:12:18,660 --> 00:12:20,386
No one really knows,
you know, what they are,

306
00:12:20,411 --> 00:12:23,746
but if it was an
aircraft, if it was a MIG,

307
00:12:23,852 --> 00:12:26,890
if it was any type
of enemy aircraft,

308
00:12:27,278 --> 00:12:28,571
it'd probably be
a pretty big deal.

309
00:12:29,782 --> 00:12:31,645
That airspace is
exclusive use airspace

310
00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:33,839
that we use out there,
over the oceans,

311
00:12:34,023 --> 00:12:36,779
for tens of F18s
going every day.

312
00:12:37,332 --> 00:12:38,566
We've got these
things showing up,

313
00:12:38,591 --> 00:12:39,871
you've got these
things showing up,

314
00:12:39,896 --> 00:12:40,919
that are following the ship.

315
00:12:40,944 --> 00:12:42,513
And no one's...
No one seems to really care.

316
00:12:42,538 --> 00:12:43,833
At least pull
in the data to go,

317
00:12:44,034 --> 00:12:46,170
if ten F18s come
back and say, yeah,

318
00:12:46,195 --> 00:12:47,780
we're seeing these
things all over,

319
00:12:47,805 --> 00:12:49,367
you would think someone
would prompt to go,

320
00:12:49,507 --> 00:12:51,342
hey what is going on?

321
00:12:51,828 --> 00:12:54,577
So you have objects off
the coast of San Diego,

322
00:12:55,111 --> 00:12:58,226
you have objects, potentially,
off the coast of Virginia,

323
00:12:58,713 --> 00:13:01,751
and these objects now,
somewhere over the Middle East.

324
00:13:01,776 --> 00:13:05,548
But now, the objects have
potentially a global presence,

325
00:13:05,864 --> 00:13:07,033
not a regional presence,

326
00:13:07,058 --> 00:13:10,465
a global presence to be
wherever they wanna be.

327
00:13:11,450 --> 00:13:12,448
Yeah.
I'm fascinated that

328
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,815
over 60 people have seen
these things and it's just

329
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,512
become like the accepted norm.

330
00:13:17,634 --> 00:13:19,199
I appreciate what
you guys are doing,

331
00:13:19,601 --> 00:13:22,040
trying to hunt down these
answers for guys like me.

332
00:13:24,117 --> 00:13:26,117
Do you know, if there's
anybody else who has

333
00:13:26,142 --> 00:13:28,578
had some interesting
experiences like this,

334
00:13:28,928 --> 00:13:29,727
we'd love to know.

335
00:13:29,752 --> 00:13:31,170
We wanna know what this is.

336
00:13:40,073 --> 00:13:41,612
In the
2004 Nimitz incident,

337
00:13:42,201 --> 00:13:43,901
Navy pilots went head-to-head

338
00:13:44,098 --> 00:13:45,474
with a Tic-Tac shaped object.

339
00:13:48,324 --> 00:13:50,849
Ten years later,
The Roosevelt pilots

340
00:13:50,874 --> 00:13:52,552
say they encountered
three different craft:

341
00:13:56,288 --> 00:13:57,553
a cube inside a sphere,

342
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:00,342
a large disc-shaped UFO,

343
00:14:00,970 --> 00:14:03,169
and a smaller round object
captured here.

344
00:14:03,775 --> 00:14:05,224
We used to call
'em Foo Fighters.

345
00:14:05,249 --> 00:14:07,623
That's what they used to call
unidentified flying objects

346
00:14:07,648 --> 00:14:09,663
during World War II
that the guys saw.

347
00:14:10,910 --> 00:14:13,394
During the war,
mysterious flying objects

348
00:14:13,614 --> 00:14:15,159
were reported by American pilots

349
00:14:15,608 --> 00:14:16,942
over Europe and the Pacific.

350
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:21,169
These Foo Fighters were often
described as small spheres,

351
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:23,825
similar to what was seen
by the Roosevelt pilots

352
00:14:24,173 --> 00:14:25,235
70 years later.

353
00:14:26,663 --> 00:14:28,634
We seem to be dealing with
more than one phenomenon,

354
00:14:29,024 --> 00:14:31,571
where they're from, who's
operating, what their intent is.

355
00:14:31,608 --> 00:14:32,748
Maybe there are, in fact,

356
00:14:32,773 --> 00:14:35,875
multiple sources that are
competing and contending

357
00:14:35,900 --> 00:14:37,234
that are developing these craft.

358
00:14:37,937 --> 00:14:40,602
In either case, it's hard to find

359
00:14:41,423 --> 00:14:44,017
 a prosaic explanation

360
00:14:44,515 --> 00:14:47,063
for a carrier battle
group being shadowed

361
00:14:47,158 --> 00:14:50,552
by unidentified aircraft all
the way across the Atlantic

362
00:14:51,272 --> 00:14:55,116
to an area of operations
overseas in the Middle East.

363
00:14:55,844 --> 00:14:59,532
It makes an extremely compelling
case for the existence

364
00:14:59,557 --> 00:15:02,852
of technologies that we didn't
even think were possible.

365
00:15:04,317 --> 00:15:05,762
So Jeff, we're
gonna play the video.

366
00:15:05,787 --> 00:15:07,467
I'd like your opinions
on what we're seeing,

367
00:15:07,492 --> 00:15:08,187
play by play.

368
00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:09,980
The
Navy's UFO videos are

369
00:15:10,005 --> 00:15:12,370
so potentially
explosive that Elizondo

370
00:15:12,395 --> 00:15:14,948
wants an independent analysis
of what exactly they show.

371
00:15:17,091 --> 00:15:18,543
Retired
Marine Lieutenant Colonel,

372
00:15:18,568 --> 00:15:21,325
Chris Cooke spent a career
flying fighter jets.

373
00:15:22,081 --> 00:15:24,528
Ross Aimer flew commercial
aircraft for decades

374
00:15:24,553 --> 00:15:27,401
and consults for the National
Transportation Safety Board.

375
00:15:29,207 --> 00:15:31,233
I don't wanna give
you too much information

376
00:15:31,258 --> 00:15:32,769
on these videos up front.

377
00:15:32,865 --> 00:15:34,992
I think it's important that
we look at this information

378
00:15:35,078 --> 00:15:36,529
without too much background.

379
00:15:37,499 --> 00:15:38,717
Elizondo's
already asked them

380
00:15:38,742 --> 00:15:41,211
to analyze the 2004
footage from the Nimitz.

381
00:15:41,779 --> 00:15:43,898
But now he wants their
take on the two videos

382
00:15:44,006 --> 00:15:45,874
from the Roosevelt in 2015.

383
00:15:49,862 --> 00:15:52,745
The Go Fast video was 33
seconds long and shows

384
00:15:52,770 --> 00:15:54,916
a round craft that
appears to be streaking

385
00:15:54,941 --> 00:15:56,465
across the ocean's surface.

386
00:15:59,011 --> 00:16:00,987
Whoa! Got it!

387
00:16:01,659 --> 00:16:02,355
Woohoo!

388
00:16:05,300 --> 00:16:07,237
What a fuck is that thing?

389
00:16:07,262 --> 00:16:08,480
Did you box moving target?

390
00:16:09,636 --> 00:16:10,808
No, it's in autotrack.

391
00:16:10,833 --> 00:16:11,417
Oh. Okay.

392
00:16:12,427 --> 00:16:13,911
Oh my gosh, dude.

393
00:16:14,404 --> 00:16:15,583
What is that, man?

394
00:16:15,608 --> 00:16:16,481
Look at that flying!

395
00:16:19,267 --> 00:16:20,236
That thing is hauling ass.

396
00:16:20,299 --> 00:16:21,619
That's exactly my point.

397
00:16:21,644 --> 00:16:23,572
It's a little less than
2/3rds the speed of sound.

398
00:16:24,493 --> 00:16:26,816
But how was the
craft able to fly so fast?

399
00:16:27,689 --> 00:16:29,969
The infrared sensor
shows the object as cold.

400
00:16:30,884 --> 00:16:33,024
If this were some
type of aircraft

401
00:16:33,140 --> 00:16:35,809
with a conventional
propulsion system,

402
00:16:35,834 --> 00:16:39,404
we would definitely see
some type of heat signature.

403
00:16:39,429 --> 00:16:41,967
Everything we know
about propulsion systems

404
00:16:41,992 --> 00:16:43,788
is they create an
intense amount of heat.

405
00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:47,320
Typically when an airplane
moves out of the way

406
00:16:47,345 --> 00:16:51,110
or tries to maneuver or evade.

407
00:16:51,845 --> 00:16:53,751
It will typically
go to full power

408
00:16:53,908 --> 00:16:56,579
and everything we know
about propulsion systems

409
00:16:56,604 --> 00:16:58,673
is they create an
intense amount of heat,

410
00:16:59,038 --> 00:17:02,243
afterburner in
particular for the F-18,

411
00:17:02,386 --> 00:17:05,772
you know, can extend 30 feet
behind the airplane.

412
00:17:06,537 --> 00:17:09,916
So if it was a
conventional type aircraft

413
00:17:10,507 --> 00:17:13,849
you would most definitely
see some type of an IR

414
00:17:13,874 --> 00:17:17,077
signature ploom
behind the airplane.

415
00:17:17,102 --> 00:17:20,203
Well that seems to
me as a lay person,

416
00:17:20,468 --> 00:17:22,640
I mean I don't know how
far that thing is away

417
00:17:22,665 --> 00:17:23,991
but it seems kind of sudden,

418
00:17:24,016 --> 00:17:26,140
it seems like it's
all of a sudden here

419
00:17:26,728 --> 00:17:29,915
and starts to drift to
the left and then boom

420
00:17:30,054 --> 00:17:31,032
Fired away

421
00:17:31,204 --> 00:17:31,657
Gone

422
00:17:31,682 --> 00:17:33,837
Now, here's the
interesting part

423
00:17:33,862 --> 00:17:37,517
of this geometric
problem is if it is close

424
00:17:38,157 --> 00:17:40,221
that for that object to move

425
00:17:40,293 --> 00:17:44,066
if it is at a pretty
significant range

426
00:17:44,429 --> 00:17:48,183
for it to move off that quickly,
that's very fast.

427
00:17:48,786 --> 00:17:51,905
And if it is far away
to move that quickly.

428
00:17:51,993 --> 00:17:52,973
It's even faster

429
00:17:54,511 --> 00:17:56,872
Wow, very very interesting.

430
00:17:56,957 --> 00:17:58,589
There is no
known aircraft that can

431
00:17:58,614 --> 00:18:00,768
stay aloft for long
without a source of lift

432
00:18:00,793 --> 00:18:01,684
and propulsion.

433
00:18:05,933 --> 00:18:06,824
Look at that thing dude.

434
00:18:08,114 --> 00:18:10,355
The Gimbal
video is even more baffling

435
00:18:10,380 --> 00:18:11,208
to the experts.

436
00:18:11,587 --> 00:18:13,797
It shows a craft
mid-air that rotates

437
00:18:13,953 --> 00:18:16,176
into a near perpendicular
position to the ground.

438
00:18:18,625 --> 00:18:20,125
Dude, this is a fucking drone, bro.

439
00:18:21,711 --> 00:18:23,601
There's a whole fleet of
them. Look at the ASA.

440
00:18:24,727 --> 00:18:25,219
My gosh.

441
00:18:27,476 --> 00:18:28,851
They're all going against the wind.

442
00:18:28,891 --> 00:18:30,789
The wind is 120 knots to the west.

443
00:18:31,258 --> 00:18:32,234
Look at that thing, dude.

444
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:33,648
It's rotating.

445
00:18:35,312 --> 00:18:36,648
The strange
way the object turns

446
00:18:36,673 --> 00:18:38,804
in mid-air confuses
both experts.

447
00:18:39,539 --> 00:18:42,204
It is definitely
rotating, it appears to be,

448
00:18:42,443 --> 00:18:44,148
or changing angle of bank.

449
00:18:44,434 --> 00:18:45,850
And it appears to have stopped

450
00:18:45,875 --> 00:18:48,043
moving quickly
across the horizon.

451
00:18:48,398 --> 00:18:51,208
And yet, it
doesn't lose any altitude.

452
00:18:51,267 --> 00:18:53,413
It doesn't seem to be dropping.

453
00:18:53,729 --> 00:18:56,883
Sadly, with all the experience
that you think we have,

454
00:18:57,251 --> 00:18:58,219
I can't figure it out.

455
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,548
Well, I certainly can't, Chris?

456
00:19:01,917 --> 00:19:02,807
No, I have no idea.

457
00:19:03,663 --> 00:19:06,362
I've always kind of been
skeptical about aliens

458
00:19:06,387 --> 00:19:09,733
and UFOs and things like that.

459
00:19:09,939 --> 00:19:13,024
But I've never seen
anything remotely

460
00:19:13,430 --> 00:19:14,571
like what I saw today.

461
00:19:14,604 --> 00:19:18,565
I'm a lot more convinced now
that these vehicles do exist.

462
00:19:19,566 --> 00:19:21,291
Coming up on Unidentified.

463
00:19:21,824 --> 00:19:23,949
First three words
that spring to mind

464
00:19:23,974 --> 00:19:27,527
are: bizarre, incredible
and unacceptable.

465
00:19:41,343 --> 00:19:42,608
Good morning, Lu, welcome.

466
00:19:43,500 --> 00:19:45,686
How you doing today?
Very well, thanks.

467
00:19:46,073 --> 00:19:47,803
Former
Deputy Assistant Secretary

468
00:19:47,828 --> 00:19:49,643
of Defense for
Intelligence, Chris Mellon,

469
00:19:50,195 --> 00:19:52,877
has convinced a powerful
group of lawmakers to meet

470
00:19:52,902 --> 00:19:55,616
with him about ongoing
military encounters with UFOs.

471
00:19:56,592 --> 00:19:58,475
But first, Lue Elizondo
is briefing him

472
00:19:58,500 --> 00:20:00,453
on the latest breakthrough
in their investigation.

473
00:20:00,478 --> 00:20:02,631
What I'd like to do is
show you a short highlight

474
00:20:02,656 --> 00:20:04,523
of an interview
that we did recently

475
00:20:04,548 --> 00:20:06,477
with an active duty pilot.

476
00:20:07,739 --> 00:20:09,469
Elizondo had
convinced a Navy pilot

477
00:20:09,494 --> 00:20:11,059
to go public with
the story behind

478
00:20:11,084 --> 00:20:14,658
two unidentified Pentagon UFO
videos, captured off Florida.

479
00:20:16,091 --> 00:20:17,912
Where the Nimitz was
occurring in the Pacific,

480
00:20:19,139 --> 00:20:21,598
we have now very
similar incidents

481
00:20:22,368 --> 00:20:23,615
occurring in the Atlantic.

482
00:20:24,495 --> 00:20:26,248
Before I say any more,

483
00:20:26,273 --> 00:20:29,531
why don't we just watch
a few minutes here?

484
00:20:30,838 --> 00:20:32,703
We're getting
ready for our deployment,

485
00:20:32,728 --> 00:20:33,726
on the Theodore Roosevelt

486
00:20:33,751 --> 00:20:35,758
over Virginia Beach
on the US Oceana.

487
00:20:35,783 --> 00:20:37,656
Lieutenant Ryan
Graves described how UFOs

488
00:20:37,813 --> 00:20:39,399
appear to follow his
carrier strike group

489
00:20:39,844 --> 00:20:42,719
from the summer
of 2014 into 2015.

490
00:20:42,744 --> 00:20:44,767
It wasn't until
someone actually saw one go in

491
00:20:44,792 --> 00:20:46,814
between two aircraft,
at a close range,

492
00:20:46,857 --> 00:20:48,236
probably within 150 feet,

493
00:20:48,377 --> 00:20:50,083
that it was starting
to get worrisome.

494
00:20:51,421 --> 00:20:54,267
Well, I'll tell you
the first three words

495
00:20:54,292 --> 00:20:56,901
that spring to mind are bizarre,

496
00:20:57,701 --> 00:20:59,230
incredible, and unacceptable.

497
00:20:59,255 --> 00:21:00,853
If that wasn't
interesting enough,

498
00:21:00,878 --> 00:21:03,529
these incidents were encountered
near the United States

499
00:21:03,590 --> 00:21:06,707
and as they made their way
to the Middle East AOR,

500
00:21:07,386 --> 00:21:08,949
they encountered
these things again,

501
00:21:08,974 --> 00:21:10,502
almost like they
were being stalked.

502
00:21:10,527 --> 00:21:12,200
As a former
intelligence person,

503
00:21:12,225 --> 00:21:16,733
I'm a little frustrated
that we spend 50 billion

504
00:21:16,758 --> 00:21:20,139
a year to try to avert
strategic surprise

505
00:21:20,527 --> 00:21:23,961
and then we have vehicles with
extraordinary capabilities

506
00:21:24,453 --> 00:21:27,170
that may be surveilling
one of our aircraft carrier

507
00:21:27,195 --> 00:21:29,827
battle groups and
nobody's taking action

508
00:21:29,852 --> 00:21:31,922
to find out where
these things are coming

509
00:21:31,947 --> 00:21:34,125
from and what
they're doing there.

510
00:21:34,837 --> 00:21:36,447
Lieutenant
Graves' squadron had filed

511
00:21:36,472 --> 00:21:38,681
a report to the Naval
Aviation Safety Office.

512
00:21:40,224 --> 00:21:42,534
But he says nothing was
done about what they'd come

513
00:21:42,559 --> 00:21:44,128
to see as a serious threat.

514
00:21:45,512 --> 00:21:49,379
There were enumerable
radar contacts and sightings,

515
00:21:49,404 --> 00:21:53,349
over an eight-week period, all
the way across the Atlantic.

516
00:21:53,509 --> 00:21:57,548
As many as perhaps 60 Naval
personnel who had eyes on,

517
00:21:57,573 --> 00:22:00,783
either on radar screens
or visually in the air.

518
00:22:01,864 --> 00:22:03,502
The evidence is sort of the tip

519
00:22:03,527 --> 00:22:04,847
of the iceberg, if you will.

520
00:22:07,023 --> 00:22:10,225
I think your friends on the
Hill may be very surprised

521
00:22:10,289 --> 00:22:12,392
to know that these
incidents have continued,

522
00:22:12,913 --> 00:22:14,709
as recently as 2015.

523
00:22:15,419 --> 00:22:16,998
Lue Elizondo,
Chris Mellon,

524
00:22:17,023 --> 00:22:19,709
these are guys that are trying
to work through the system.

525
00:22:19,976 --> 00:22:22,429
They're not outside the system
sort of throwing grenades

526
00:22:22,564 --> 00:22:24,460
in order to get their way.

527
00:22:25,123 --> 00:22:26,873
They're trying to get
Congress on board.

528
00:22:27,697 --> 00:22:30,560
They're trying to get more
of the Pentagon leadership

529
00:22:30,585 --> 00:22:33,643
to pay attention, but
because they are bound

530
00:22:33,668 --> 00:22:35,681
by their oath to protect
classified information,

531
00:22:35,706 --> 00:22:36,657
they need to be careful.

532
00:22:36,821 --> 00:22:37,995
Mellon
wants to show the video

533
00:22:38,020 --> 00:22:39,737
of Lieutenant Graves
to his contacts

534
00:22:39,762 --> 00:22:41,535
and powerful
Congressional committees

535
00:22:41,862 --> 00:22:43,426
that oversee national security.

536
00:22:44,247 --> 00:22:46,028
He hopes the Lieutenant's
dramatic story will

537
00:22:46,053 --> 00:22:47,878
get Congress to
acknowledge these incidents

538
00:22:47,903 --> 00:22:49,735
are real and take action.

539
00:22:51,098 --> 00:22:52,762
But Mellon knows he
has to be careful.

540
00:22:53,307 --> 00:22:55,799
Talking about UFOs carries
the decades long stigma

541
00:22:56,429 --> 00:22:58,612
of flying saucers
and alien visitors.

542
00:22:58,900 --> 00:23:00,417
The alien angle on this is

543
00:23:00,442 --> 00:23:02,400
the biggest impediment
to progress.

544
00:23:02,659 --> 00:23:04,236
I agree.
And I wanna steer

545
00:23:04,416 --> 00:23:07,244
as far clear of that as
possible in any discussions.

546
00:23:07,269 --> 00:23:11,306
This is an issue of
unknown aircraft that

547
00:23:11,331 --> 00:23:15,463
appear to be surveilling the
fleet in significant numbers

548
00:23:15,488 --> 00:23:17,002
over prolonged periods of time.

549
00:23:17,517 --> 00:23:21,745
They're being observed by
large numbers of pilots.

550
00:23:22,004 --> 00:23:23,071
Um, they're being,

551
00:23:23,165 --> 00:23:26,001
the observations are confirmed
by our sensor systems,

552
00:23:26,665 --> 00:23:30,274
and nobody seems to
be taking action.

553
00:23:30,749 --> 00:23:34,709
And here we have multiple
mysterious aircraft

554
00:23:34,734 --> 00:23:37,193
with absolutely stunning,
sort of unprecedented,

555
00:23:37,218 --> 00:23:41,522
capabilities flying in
restricted military airspace

556
00:23:41,997 --> 00:23:44,757
in close proximity to
carrier battle groups

557
00:23:44,782 --> 00:23:46,610
working up for deployments
to the Middle East.

558
00:23:47,228 --> 00:23:49,539
And the Congress
isn't being informed.

559
00:23:49,564 --> 00:23:51,016
The upper echelons
of the department

560
00:23:51,041 --> 00:23:51,977
are not being informed.

561
00:23:52,337 --> 00:23:54,556
Senior people in the
intelligence community

562
00:23:54,581 --> 00:23:56,493
don't seem to be
getting the message,

563
00:23:56,518 --> 00:23:57,533
and nobody's responding.

564
00:23:58,059 --> 00:24:00,236
Maybe at the end of the
day we'll find a person,

565
00:24:00,323 --> 00:24:03,321
a simple reasonable explanation.

566
00:24:03,345 --> 00:24:06,901
Maybe we'll find out it was
some special classified program

567
00:24:06,926 --> 00:24:08,590
and we can pop a
bottle of champagne and

568
00:24:08,615 --> 00:24:09,098
Sure.

569
00:24:09,123 --> 00:24:10,402
We can celebrate our
breakthrough

570
00:24:10,427 --> 00:24:11,356
and that's great, right?

571
00:24:11,381 --> 00:24:13,803
I have faith that the
leadership in this country

572
00:24:14,300 --> 00:24:15,576
does want to do
something about it.

573
00:24:15,601 --> 00:24:17,405
I think that they do
want to know about this.

574
00:24:17,854 --> 00:24:19,908
Um, I think that there
are challenges

575
00:24:19,933 --> 00:24:20,838
that we have internally,

576
00:24:20,863 --> 00:24:23,049
probably in part
because of stigma,

577
00:24:23,074 --> 00:24:24,980
probably in part
because of other things,

578
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,019
that for some reason
this information isn't getting

579
00:24:29,336 --> 00:24:32,343
um, trickled up to the
right levels for attention.

580
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,945
I'm gonna fold this up
and get out of your hair.

581
00:24:35,970 --> 00:24:37,702
Thank you, Lou,
great job, great work.

582
00:24:38,466 --> 00:24:40,053
Elizondo
hands Mellon a tablet.

583
00:24:40,078 --> 00:24:42,661
with a clip from the
interview and he heads

584
00:24:42,686 --> 00:24:44,583
to a closed door
meeting on Capital Hill.

585
00:24:47,731 --> 00:24:50,192
Not everybody recalls
from their civic lesson

586
00:24:50,217 --> 00:24:53,067
that it's the Congress,
not the Executive Branch,

587
00:24:53,537 --> 00:24:56,286
that raises and
maintains the military

588
00:24:56,311 --> 00:25:00,404
and is responsible for their
organization and funding.

589
00:25:00,990 --> 00:25:02,692
And they can't do that
effectively if they

590
00:25:02,717 --> 00:25:04,653
don't know what the
threats are out there.

591
00:25:08,666 --> 00:25:09,611
Over the decades,

592
00:25:09,645 --> 00:25:11,541
Congress has made sporadic
attempts to tackle

593
00:25:11,566 --> 00:25:13,744
the UFO issue,
with little result.

594
00:25:14,816 --> 00:25:18,226
In 1966, House Minority
Leader, Gerald Ford,

595
00:25:18,734 --> 00:25:21,167
called for hearings after
a rash of UFO sightings

596
00:25:21,192 --> 00:25:22,301
in his Michigan district.

597
00:25:23,423 --> 00:25:24,566
Two years later...

598
00:25:24,591 --> 00:25:26,285
Beings that come
from the sky that

599
00:25:26,310 --> 00:25:28,054
are worried about us,
that are powerful.

600
00:25:28,079 --> 00:25:30,200
Astronomer Carl
Sagan told the House Committee

601
00:25:30,225 --> 00:25:33,239
on Science and Aeronautics
that investigating UFOs

602
00:25:33,264 --> 00:25:34,435
was a valid pursuit.

603
00:25:35,109 --> 00:25:37,724
Project Blue Book's J.
Allen Hynek testified that

604
00:25:37,749 --> 00:25:41,327
he hoped respected scientists
would study his UFO reports.

605
00:25:41,695 --> 00:25:44,124
How many
really mysterious incidents

606
00:25:44,149 --> 00:25:46,527
are there that you'd like to
go back and look at again?

607
00:25:47,229 --> 00:25:49,022
As I mentioned in the
hearings this morning,

608
00:25:49,312 --> 00:25:50,605
I've picked some 20 which

609
00:25:50,630 --> 00:25:53,358
have possible scientific
pay dirt in them.

610
00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:55,686
But Project
Blue Book was closed down

611
00:25:56,857 --> 00:25:58,684
a year later and Hynek's
dream would have to wait.

612
00:26:01,309 --> 00:26:03,494
50 years later,
Elizondo and Mellon

613
00:26:03,627 --> 00:26:05,527
are again pushing
Congress to take notice.

614
00:26:06,527 --> 00:26:07,964
What's the word?
Oh, good meeting.

615
00:26:08,259 --> 00:26:09,074
Really good meeting.

616
00:26:09,350 --> 00:26:10,636
Lawmakers had
already heard

617
00:26:10,661 --> 00:26:12,140
from the USS Nimitz pilots

618
00:26:12,501 --> 00:26:14,616
during a closed door
meeting earlier in the year.

619
00:26:15,093 --> 00:26:16,555
It's getting
a lot more attention now.

620
00:26:16,664 --> 00:26:19,438
We, as a military,
we, as an institution,

621
00:26:19,463 --> 00:26:23,455
we, as American people, we
should take this seriously.

622
00:26:23,683 --> 00:26:26,651
They recognized that
the Nimitz incident was

623
00:26:26,676 --> 00:26:27,681
not an isolated incident?

624
00:26:27,706 --> 00:26:29,229
Yeah, absolutely.
That there's a trend.

625
00:26:29,274 --> 00:26:30,604
Absolutely.
Excellent, excellent.

626
00:26:30,629 --> 00:26:31,643
And they'd like to hear,

627
00:26:31,668 --> 00:26:33,339
as more people come
forward and approach us,

628
00:26:33,364 --> 00:26:35,403
they're interested in what
they have to say, also.

629
00:26:35,660 --> 00:26:37,474
Now, Mellon's
Washington contacts

630
00:26:37,499 --> 00:26:39,254
have told him they
want to meet directly

631
00:26:39,279 --> 00:26:41,511
with Lieutenant Graves
and any other pilot

632
00:26:41,536 --> 00:26:43,379
in his squadron who's
willing to speak up.

633
00:26:46,792 --> 00:26:49,862
Carl Sagan once
famously said, about UFOs,

634
00:26:49,887 --> 00:26:52,393
extraordinary claims
require extraordinary proof.

635
00:26:53,016 --> 00:26:54,628
He was absolutely right.

636
00:26:55,459 --> 00:26:57,191
But now we have the proof.

637
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,443
The question now is will
people look at the evidence

638
00:27:00,468 --> 00:27:02,216
and are they able to process it?

639
00:27:08,447 --> 00:27:10,400
Lieutenant Ryan
Graves has just described,

640
00:27:10,425 --> 00:27:13,142
for the first time, a
terrifying series of encounters

641
00:27:13,167 --> 00:27:16,408
over the Atlantic between
UFOs and the US Navy.

642
00:27:18,991 --> 00:27:22,248
He says a fleet of UFOs stalked
his squadron for months off

643
00:27:22,273 --> 00:27:25,443
the East coast and even followed
them to the Middle East.

644
00:27:25,981 --> 00:27:27,546
What the fuck is that?

645
00:27:27,873 --> 00:27:29,390
Oh my gosh, dude.

646
00:27:29,415 --> 00:27:30,875
Seriously,
look at that thing.

647
00:27:31,806 --> 00:27:32,736
It's rotating.

648
00:27:33,446 --> 00:27:35,516
From my experience
on the East coast,

649
00:27:35,901 --> 00:27:38,711
tens, if not 100 people

650
00:27:39,308 --> 00:27:41,032
have had this issue.

651
00:27:41,754 --> 00:27:44,144
Really the issue is that
there's no real means

652
00:27:44,169 --> 00:27:46,823
of communication to kind
of express that information.

653
00:27:46,848 --> 00:27:50,027
So, what'll happen is you'll
see something interesting

654
00:27:50,367 --> 00:27:52,676
and you'll show your buddies,
including your skipper,

655
00:27:52,875 --> 00:27:55,086
and that's really where
the conversation ends.

656
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,003
Graves
says his fellow pilots

657
00:27:57,163 --> 00:27:59,194
saw at least three
different shapes of UFOs.

658
00:28:00,285 --> 00:28:02,452
Now, a second eye witness
is coming forward.

659
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:08,569
Hey buddy.
Hey, what's up man?

660
00:28:09,432 --> 00:28:10,296
How you doing?
Good.

661
00:28:10,647 --> 00:28:12,062
How are you?
Doing well.

662
00:28:15,478 --> 00:28:17,908
I'm the very, keep things
close to the chest kind of guy.

663
00:28:18,376 --> 00:28:20,448
I trust him, we've
flown together.

664
00:28:20,930 --> 00:28:23,164
We deployed together and so,

665
00:28:23,261 --> 00:28:25,352
when Lieutenant
Graves was saying he's

666
00:28:25,377 --> 00:28:27,337
got some people interested
in talking to us,

667
00:28:27,362 --> 00:28:29,909
I was willing to help him out.

668
00:28:30,539 --> 00:28:31,799
Many of the
pilots have hundreds

669
00:28:32,190 --> 00:28:34,846
if not several thousands
of flying hours.

670
00:28:35,095 --> 00:28:37,024
It's not in their interest
to make this stuff up,

671
00:28:37,534 --> 00:28:40,868
because, professionally, it
could be very damaging to them.

672
00:28:41,820 --> 00:28:44,323
In 2015,
Lieutenant Graves

673
00:28:44,394 --> 00:28:47,021
and Lieutenant Danny
Aucoin were training

674
00:28:47,021 --> 00:28:48,349
to deploy to the Middle East.

675
00:28:51,614 --> 00:28:53,732
What was the first
thing you thought when you saw

676
00:28:54,237 --> 00:28:55,927
that there is actually
something there?

677
00:28:56,183 --> 00:28:58,150
The first time you
see it on the radar

678
00:28:58,385 --> 00:28:59,619
could possibly be a false track,

679
00:28:59,737 --> 00:29:02,533
but then when you start to
get multiple sensors reading

680
00:29:02,598 --> 00:29:05,190
the exact same thing, and
then you get to see a display,

681
00:29:05,597 --> 00:29:07,091
that solidifies it for me.

682
00:29:08,399 --> 00:29:09,276
Again and again,

683
00:29:09,598 --> 00:29:11,664
the pilots were capturing
bizarre shaped objects

684
00:29:11,689 --> 00:29:13,250
on their F18's cameras.

685
00:29:16,594 --> 00:29:18,512
Two of the videos would
be released to the public.

686
00:29:19,420 --> 00:29:21,351
One would come to
be known as Go Fast,

687
00:29:21,727 --> 00:29:23,031
the other was called Gimbal.

688
00:29:23,679 --> 00:29:27,686
Really no distinct
wings, no distinct tail,

689
00:29:28,117 --> 00:29:30,702
no distinct exhaust plume,

690
00:29:30,727 --> 00:29:32,922
much like you see
in the Gimbal video.

691
00:29:33,515 --> 00:29:35,406
It seemed like they were
aware of our presence,

692
00:29:35,431 --> 00:29:38,289
'cause they would
actively move around us.

693
00:29:39,121 --> 00:29:40,652
Lieutenant
Graves was in the air

694
00:29:40,677 --> 00:29:42,675
the day the Gimbal
video was recorded.

695
00:29:43,430 --> 00:29:47,113
We came back, we landed and
we got back to the ready room,

696
00:29:47,138 --> 00:29:49,007
we we're getting our
gear off and you're like,

697
00:29:49,032 --> 00:29:51,465
dude, you gotta check this
video out it's sick.

698
00:29:51,639 --> 00:29:52,953
They're all going against the wind.

699
00:29:52,978 --> 00:29:55,492
The wind is 120 knots to the west.

700
00:29:56,055 --> 00:29:57,157
Look at that thing.

701
00:29:57,293 --> 00:29:59,303
His flight path doesn't
look like it moves at all.

702
00:29:59,328 --> 00:30:00,677
Yeah, its flight
path doesn't change,

703
00:30:00,702 --> 00:30:01,897
his altitude is not changing.

704
00:30:02,152 --> 00:30:04,544
So it's basically just
rotating in some fashion.

705
00:30:04,736 --> 00:30:05,972
Yeah.
That's my perspective.

706
00:30:06,109 --> 00:30:07,284
Yeah, I'd say the same thing.

707
00:30:07,309 --> 00:30:09,753
That's definitely not a
maneuver I've pulled before.

708
00:30:11,082 --> 00:30:12,402
According
to the pilots,

709
00:30:12,541 --> 00:30:15,011
the Go Fast video was
captured several weeks later

710
00:30:15,451 --> 00:30:17,161
off Florida's East coast.

711
00:30:17,354 --> 00:30:20,385
What the fuck is that thing?

712
00:30:20,410 --> 00:30:22,197
Did you box moving target?

713
00:30:22,222 --> 00:30:22,878
What is that man?

714
00:30:22,918 --> 00:30:24,149
Look at that flying!

715
00:30:24,174 --> 00:30:26,528
So, do you think that's the
same air crew as the first one?

716
00:30:27,436 --> 00:30:29,787
Both videos appear
to feature the same voices.

717
00:30:33,865 --> 00:30:34,873
That's
led to questions

718
00:30:34,898 --> 00:30:35,913
whether they were faked.

719
00:30:36,716 --> 00:30:38,309
On the one hand you could say,

720
00:30:38,700 --> 00:30:41,209
it makes it more credible
because you're hearing,

721
00:30:41,234 --> 00:30:45,858
in the moment, how surprised
these military pilots are.

722
00:30:46,133 --> 00:30:48,343
At the same time, it probably
increases the chances

723
00:30:48,368 --> 00:30:49,946
that somebody could've
spliced in the audio

724
00:30:50,251 --> 00:30:51,734
to make it sound more credible.

725
00:30:52,694 --> 00:30:53,998
That is the same air crew,

726
00:30:54,023 --> 00:30:55,670
because I recognize
my buddy's voices.

727
00:30:55,835 --> 00:30:58,795
Yeah, yes, I
think a lot of people will.

728
00:30:59,546 --> 00:31:02,022
I definitely recognize
the voices of both,

729
00:31:02,139 --> 00:31:04,866
the WSO on both of them
and then the pilot and I

730
00:31:05,062 --> 00:31:06,961
were really good friends
inside and outside of work.

731
00:31:06,986 --> 00:31:09,102
Our families spent a
lot of time together.

732
00:31:09,127 --> 00:31:10,767
Whoa! Got it!

733
00:31:11,939 --> 00:31:12,814
Woohoo!

734
00:31:12,919 --> 00:31:14,090
I don't know
what this thing is.

735
00:31:14,115 --> 00:31:16,944
I don't know, this one's weird to me.
I don't really know how to describe it.

736
00:31:16,969 --> 00:31:19,437
Could it have been a drone;
I think yes, it could've been.

737
00:31:19,658 --> 00:31:21,554
Whatever it was was small,

738
00:31:22,063 --> 00:31:24,320
which is why it was difficult
to pick up visually.

739
00:31:24,724 --> 00:31:25,726
Despite
their seemingly

740
00:31:25,751 --> 00:31:28,546
incredible capabilities,
neither pilot can disregard

741
00:31:28,571 --> 00:31:31,242
the possibility that whatever
was captured on both videos

742
00:31:31,705 --> 00:31:34,205
was either a technology
controlled by the US military

743
00:31:34,705 --> 00:31:36,127
or one of America's enemies.

744
00:31:37,283 --> 00:31:39,009
Is there anything you know of

745
00:31:39,034 --> 00:31:41,361
that could make turns like that?

746
00:31:42,508 --> 00:31:46,596
Um, I don't know, I don't
know how deep I wanna

747
00:31:46,621 --> 00:31:48,410
go down that, that
path right now.

748
00:31:50,681 --> 00:31:52,837
In 2015,
the commander of

749
00:31:52,862 --> 00:31:55,649
the Roosevelt Strike Group was
Rear Admiral Andrew L. Lewis.

750
00:31:57,147 --> 00:31:58,842
Lieutenant Graves was
there when the admiral

751
00:31:58,868 --> 00:32:01,132
came below deck to
watch one of the videos.

752
00:32:01,814 --> 00:32:03,236
So, I stayed in
the room, in the civic

753
00:32:03,261 --> 00:32:04,786
'cause I heard the
admiral's coming down--

754
00:32:04,811 --> 00:32:05,820
Yeah.
To check the video out.

755
00:32:05,845 --> 00:32:07,373
We'd been dealing
with this for awhile.

756
00:32:07,398 --> 00:32:08,851
Let's see what he
says about this tape.

757
00:32:08,876 --> 00:32:11,296
And he walked in the
room and I see him just

758
00:32:11,557 --> 00:32:13,665
look at the video for
like five seconds,

759
00:32:14,071 --> 00:32:15,627
just go, huh, and walk
out and that was it.

760
00:32:17,852 --> 00:32:18,892
What the hell is
that thing?

761
00:32:19,312 --> 00:32:21,040
Could the
mysterious craft have been part

762
00:32:21,065 --> 00:32:23,604
of a secret test program
or were they sent

763
00:32:23,629 --> 00:32:26,385
by a foreign adversary,
a so-called red threat?

764
00:32:27,636 --> 00:32:30,401
If it's a red threat,
that would be enormous.

765
00:32:30,705 --> 00:32:33,925
If it was someone
operating drones out there,

766
00:32:33,950 --> 00:32:35,869
that would be enormous,
too, someday will be mid-air

767
00:32:35,894 --> 00:32:36,939
and you lose an aircraft.

768
00:32:36,964 --> 00:32:38,486
If it's something
totally outside of that,

769
00:32:38,511 --> 00:32:40,534
then obviously the implications

770
00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:41,878
for that are enormous as well.

771
00:32:42,816 --> 00:32:45,110
Nobody wants to go
to the Admiral and say,

772
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,339
"Sir, we're screwed."

773
00:32:47,565 --> 00:32:50,183
This is this aircraft that
just got under the wire

774
00:32:50,348 --> 00:32:51,806
and we didn't even
know it were there.

775
00:32:51,911 --> 00:32:53,752
And they've been there before.

776
00:32:54,256 --> 00:32:54,934
My gosh!

777
00:32:55,622 --> 00:32:57,059
There is definitely
this fear

778
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,920
that either an adversary

779
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:03,452
or someone else has
developed a technology

780
00:33:03,477 --> 00:33:07,258
and every defense system we
have developed over decades

781
00:33:07,744 --> 00:33:10,603
to protect our forces
is irrelevant

782
00:33:10,810 --> 00:33:12,748
and that's a scary thought if
you're in the military.

783
00:33:13,986 --> 00:33:16,982
We're just trying to figure
out exactly what we saw.

784
00:33:17,313 --> 00:33:19,106
If I hadn't seen it
with my own eyes,

785
00:33:19,380 --> 00:33:21,407
I don't know if I would've
believed it either.

786
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,747
The department of defense did
not respond to repeated requests

787
00:33:25,771 --> 00:33:29,141
for comment on the claims made
by Ryan Graves and Danny Aucoin.

788
00:33:29,866 --> 00:33:31,866
Coming up on Unidentified:

789
00:33:32,453 --> 00:33:34,343
What happens when
it's behaving in a way

790
00:33:34,464 --> 00:33:37,758
that these guys and pilots
are saying, I have no clue.

791
00:33:38,132 --> 00:33:39,891
Well that's when you start
seeing the expletives

792
00:33:39,916 --> 00:33:40,743
come over the radio.

793
00:33:47,792 --> 00:33:48,847
Hey, what's up?
Hey Steve.

794
00:33:48,907 --> 00:33:50,510
Listen, I was
going through my notes.

795
00:33:50,535 --> 00:33:53,590
Um, I was wondering if maybe I
could share a few thoughts

796
00:33:53,615 --> 00:33:55,370
with you, to get your
opinion on a few things.

797
00:33:55,395 --> 00:33:56,315
Yeah, yeah, no problem.

798
00:33:56,340 --> 00:33:57,465
Lou
Elizondo's investigation

799
00:33:57,490 --> 00:33:58,763
has raised a critical question.

800
00:33:59,592 --> 00:34:02,720
Why were the UFOs captured
in all three F18 videos

801
00:34:03,246 --> 00:34:05,425
seen near US Navy
Carrier Strike Groups,

802
00:34:05,957 --> 00:34:07,875
even following one of
them into a war zone.

803
00:34:11,016 --> 00:34:13,430
How do you know that
a foreign adversary

804
00:34:13,455 --> 00:34:16,919
hasn't leap frogged us in
technology by a generation?

805
00:34:16,944 --> 00:34:18,295
How do you know
we're not just seeing

806
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,952
the new jet of the future?

807
00:34:20,417 --> 00:34:21,979
If anyone
might know the answer,

808
00:34:22,004 --> 00:34:23,041
it's Steve Justice.

809
00:34:23,351 --> 00:34:25,668
In his three decades at
Lockheed Martin Skunk Works,

810
00:34:25,913 --> 00:34:27,621
he helped design
some of America's

811
00:34:27,646 --> 00:34:29,066
most advanced attack aircraft.

812
00:34:30,301 --> 00:34:32,720
Why would it be near
carrier battle group?

813
00:34:33,384 --> 00:34:35,386
So what was the carrier
doing at the time?

814
00:34:35,953 --> 00:34:37,438
Workups?
Yup, it was doing workups.

815
00:34:37,463 --> 00:34:39,087
Getting ready for deployment.

816
00:34:40,188 --> 00:34:42,244
Okay, and so would
that be something

817
00:34:42,244 --> 00:34:43,736
an adversary would wanna see?

818
00:34:43,761 --> 00:34:45,228
Damn well we wanna know, yeah.

819
00:34:45,339 --> 00:34:46,683
I wanna know anything
and everything...

820
00:34:46,708 --> 00:34:48,486
Right.
That our foreign adversaries are doing

821
00:34:48,511 --> 00:34:50,471
and a workup is
a perfect place to do it.

822
00:34:50,496 --> 00:34:52,574
Right, because coms and
everything are being used.

823
00:34:52,599 --> 00:34:54,293
Well, and you're gonna
see that thing working

824
00:34:54,318 --> 00:34:56,707
as it's working in the field
and that's what I wanna know.

825
00:34:56,874 --> 00:34:58,099
Right.
But what happens

826
00:34:58,124 --> 00:35:00,077
when you don't have the
pilots recognizing what it is

827
00:35:00,102 --> 00:35:02,980
and it's behaving in
a way that these guys

828
00:35:03,005 --> 00:35:05,297
and pilots are saying,
I have no clue.

829
00:35:05,455 --> 00:35:07,106
That's when you start
seeing the expletives

830
00:35:07,146 --> 00:35:08,075
come over the radio.

831
00:35:09,232 --> 00:35:09,888
That's fair.

832
00:35:10,138 --> 00:35:10,826
Expletives.

833
00:35:11,458 --> 00:35:13,145
What a hell is that thing?

834
00:35:13,170 --> 00:35:14,115
What is that man?

835
00:35:14,140 --> 00:35:15,396
Did you box moving target?

836
00:35:15,587 --> 00:35:17,464
A foreign adversary
can't just send in

837
00:35:17,715 --> 00:35:19,876
a typical
reconnaissance aircraft

838
00:35:19,901 --> 00:35:21,484
'cause we won't let
'em into our area.

839
00:35:21,509 --> 00:35:23,422
They would have to send
in something that's super,

840
00:35:23,447 --> 00:35:24,289
super low observable,

841
00:35:24,621 --> 00:35:26,344
something that is
super sophisticated

842
00:35:26,458 --> 00:35:27,672
and fast that can get in,

843
00:35:27,926 --> 00:35:29,224
look at what it is we're doing,

844
00:35:29,543 --> 00:35:30,816
and then get back out, right?

845
00:35:31,111 --> 00:35:33,122
I mean, we want that capability,

846
00:35:33,147 --> 00:35:34,598
so why wouldn't a
foreign adversary?

847
00:35:34,623 --> 00:35:37,075
Yeah.
That's why I continue

848
00:35:37,100 --> 00:35:39,928
to doggedly pursue
these what-if scenarios.

849
00:35:40,363 --> 00:35:43,139
My greatest fear is that an
adversary did figure it out

850
00:35:43,881 --> 00:35:47,285
and we are just way, way,
way, way, way behind.

851
00:35:48,976 --> 00:35:49,646
In their work

852
00:35:49,671 --> 00:35:51,340
inside highly
classified programs,

853
00:35:52,060 --> 00:35:54,304
both Elizondo and
Justice had access

854
00:35:54,329 --> 00:35:56,575
to much more information
than they're able to reveal.

855
00:35:57,231 --> 00:35:58,848
I think we owe
it to ourselves,

856
00:35:58,873 --> 00:36:00,715
I think we owe it
to everybody that

857
00:36:00,740 --> 00:36:03,068
is relying on us to
collect the information

858
00:36:03,093 --> 00:36:04,747
and be fair and
objective, right?

859
00:36:05,191 --> 00:36:07,866
I'm really, desperately
trying to do that.

860
00:36:09,236 --> 00:36:11,308
But at the same time, I feel
a little bit disingenuous

861
00:36:11,333 --> 00:36:15,388
because, sometimes, I might
have inside knowledge.

862
00:36:15,413 --> 00:36:16,770
There's a lot of
stuff that you have

863
00:36:16,795 --> 00:36:18,838
to leave partitioned off, okay.

864
00:36:19,030 --> 00:36:22,138
But I would say there's
just too many pieces

865
00:36:22,163 --> 00:36:25,193
of the puzzle that
don't make sense

866
00:36:25,591 --> 00:36:27,882
and it represents a
set of capabilities

867
00:36:28,419 --> 00:36:31,543
that seem new to everybody
in the community.

868
00:36:32,481 --> 00:36:34,981
If these aircraft had
Russian or Chinese markings

869
00:36:35,006 --> 00:36:36,918
on them and they were
zipping on and out

870
00:36:36,943 --> 00:36:38,528
of an aircraft
carrier battle group,

871
00:36:38,798 --> 00:36:42,068
there would be a budget
the size of this building

872
00:36:42,396 --> 00:36:44,474
designed to get to the
bottom of how do they develop

873
00:36:44,499 --> 00:36:46,630
that and how do we replicate
it and how do we defeat it?

874
00:36:46,725 --> 00:36:49,100
But none of that is happening
here, as far as we can tell.

875
00:36:49,917 --> 00:36:51,061
If
these craft were sent

876
00:36:51,086 --> 00:36:53,734
by a foreign adversary,
Elizondo says that threat

877
00:36:54,108 --> 00:36:55,953
would need to be
reported to law makers.

878
00:36:56,294 --> 00:36:58,273
If anybody had this
leap frog technology,

879
00:36:58,421 --> 00:36:59,551
this would be a national

880
00:36:59,576 --> 00:37:01,286
intelligence collection
priority,

881
00:37:01,311 --> 00:37:02,919
period; all hands on deck.

882
00:37:03,092 --> 00:37:04,286
Congress would be engaged.

883
00:37:04,361 --> 00:37:05,576
But we know that's not the case.

884
00:37:05,646 --> 00:37:07,525
We know that as a fact
because we're talking

885
00:37:07,620 --> 00:37:09,064
to the highest
levels of Congress;

886
00:37:09,226 --> 00:37:10,640
we're feeding them information.

887
00:37:11,204 --> 00:37:12,952
We know Congress is
just as surprised

888
00:37:12,977 --> 00:37:14,179
by this as Joe Q. Public.

889
00:37:14,204 --> 00:37:14,632
Yeah.

890
00:37:15,173 --> 00:37:18,086
So, that, for me,
that's a deal...

891
00:37:18,111 --> 00:37:20,782
And that's why I'm saying,
if it is a foreign capability

892
00:37:20,807 --> 00:37:22,032
going on and this
hasn't occurred,

893
00:37:22,106 --> 00:37:23,173
dude, heads are gonna roll.

894
00:37:24,092 --> 00:37:24,970
That's illegal.

895
00:37:25,105 --> 00:37:26,111
There's laws against that.

896
00:37:26,136 --> 00:37:27,479
You have to inform Congress.

897
00:37:29,758 --> 00:37:31,136
Something
allegedly has been stalking

898
00:37:31,161 --> 00:37:33,538
America's nuclear powered
carrier strike groups.

899
00:37:33,902 --> 00:37:35,856
But neither Lue Elizondo
or Steve Justice

900
00:37:36,240 --> 00:37:37,653
believe it's an enemy we know.

901
00:37:38,269 --> 00:37:39,839
Wanna be careful
we're not belligerent,

902
00:37:39,864 --> 00:37:41,521
you know, saying oh the
Russian, the Chinese,

903
00:37:41,546 --> 00:37:43,552
that they're the big, bad
enemy because when it comes

904
00:37:43,577 --> 00:37:46,060
to this phenomena,
they're really not.

905
00:37:47,188 --> 00:37:48,539
They're in the
same boat we're in.

906
00:37:53,894 --> 00:37:55,738
Hi man, unfortunately,
I'm no longer interested

907
00:37:55,763 --> 00:37:58,621
in communicating about the
matter we discussed earlier.

908
00:37:59,585 --> 00:38:01,069
I hope you can understand this.

909
00:38:01,472 --> 00:38:02,601
Good luck with everything.

910
00:38:03,346 --> 00:38:04,322
He's spooked.

911
00:38:05,079 --> 00:38:07,830
This is the second guy in
a week now that was part

912
00:38:08,486 --> 00:38:11,228
of that effort on the Roosevelt
in 2015 that we've lost.

913
00:38:13,540 --> 00:38:15,431
Lue Elizondo
convinced Navy pilot

914
00:38:15,464 --> 00:38:17,564
Lieutenant Ryan
Graves to go public

915
00:38:17,589 --> 00:38:19,651
about his squadron's
extraordinary encounters

916
00:38:19,676 --> 00:38:20,792
with UFOs.

917
00:38:22,245 --> 00:38:24,511
I've had conversations with
friends from other squadrons

918
00:38:24,536 --> 00:38:26,551
that just, hey, there's
stuff out there,

919
00:38:27,016 --> 00:38:29,121
I hope we don't hit it
now because they're out

920
00:38:29,146 --> 00:38:30,903
there enough now where
someone could potentially

921
00:38:30,928 --> 00:38:32,559
have a mid-air; something
needs to be done.

922
00:38:33,403 --> 00:38:34,880
But after
months of trying to persuade

923
00:38:34,905 --> 00:38:37,012
other pilots from the
USS Theodore Roosevelt

924
00:38:37,037 --> 00:38:39,581
to speak out,
Elizondo's hit a wall.

925
00:38:43,111 --> 00:38:45,712
The jets weapons systems
officer allegedly heard

926
00:38:45,737 --> 00:38:47,001
throughout the
Roosevelt videos...

927
00:38:47,041 --> 00:38:49,072
There's a whole fleet of
them. Look on the ASA.

928
00:38:49,593 --> 00:38:50,900
Has backed
out of an interview.

929
00:38:51,601 --> 00:38:53,884
The person's voice
you hear in that video,

930
00:38:54,655 --> 00:38:57,936
that is the guy that we
were in contact with.

931
00:38:58,707 --> 00:39:02,252
This had the potential
to really help shed light

932
00:39:02,277 --> 00:39:04,074
to get a better handle
of what's going on.

933
00:39:04,831 --> 00:39:06,510
Kinda sucks, actually.

934
00:39:09,608 --> 00:39:10,932
While
there are allegedly more

935
00:39:10,957 --> 00:39:13,158
than 50 Nave personnel
who witnessed these UFOs,

936
00:39:14,286 --> 00:39:16,200
nearly all of them are
afraid to come forward.

937
00:39:21,426 --> 00:39:22,324
So how you been, man?

938
00:39:22,349 --> 00:39:22,761
Good.

939
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,636
So, ah, how you feeling
about this?

940
00:39:25,790 --> 00:39:26,883
I'm feeling pretty good.

941
00:39:27,508 --> 00:39:28,686
But
Lieutenant Ryan Graves

942
00:39:28,711 --> 00:39:30,461
has been summoned to
the nation's capital

943
00:39:30,703 --> 00:39:32,811
for a closed door meeting
with members of Congress

944
00:39:33,102 --> 00:39:34,601
responsible for
national security.

945
00:39:35,827 --> 00:39:38,016
They want to hear what
happened when a fleet of UFOs

946
00:39:38,325 --> 00:39:40,262
appeared to stalk his
carrier strike group.

947
00:39:42,412 --> 00:39:44,341
I'm not here to speculate
or guess what it is.

948
00:39:44,366 --> 00:39:47,389
I can just simply provide as
many facts as I can about this.

949
00:39:48,218 --> 00:39:50,952
The fact that Lieutenant
Graves is willing

950
00:39:51,329 --> 00:39:53,764
to put his career at risk
and speak out publicly

951
00:39:53,789 --> 00:39:56,062
about this while he's
still active duty military

952
00:39:56,319 --> 00:39:59,491
really speaks volumes
about the frustration

953
00:39:59,516 --> 00:40:00,961
in trying to work
through the system.

954
00:40:01,282 --> 00:40:04,610
One can only hope that his
courage will be rewarded

955
00:40:05,143 --> 00:40:07,071
and that people
will pay attention.

956
00:40:07,803 --> 00:40:09,305
What would you like
to walk away with

957
00:40:09,330 --> 00:40:11,322
at the end of this meeting
you're about to have today?

958
00:40:11,732 --> 00:40:12,642
There's two issues here.

959
00:40:12,667 --> 00:40:15,947
One, people aren't
paying attention,

960
00:40:16,235 --> 00:40:19,113
and two, there's a
credibility problem

961
00:40:19,367 --> 00:40:21,102
and a stigma related to this.

962
00:40:21,134 --> 00:40:24,274
By observing hard facts and data

963
00:40:24,453 --> 00:40:27,413
from professionals and
from our sensor systems,

964
00:40:28,499 --> 00:40:30,453
we can bring this to
light in such a way that,

965
00:40:30,478 --> 00:40:31,828
that you can't just
refute by saying,

966
00:40:31,853 --> 00:40:32,704
I don't believe you.

967
00:40:33,331 --> 00:40:35,440
Man, I hope you get
a chance to tell them that.

968
00:40:38,057 --> 00:40:39,361
Like
Lieutenant Graves,

969
00:40:39,794 --> 00:40:42,171
Lue Elizondo made his
own decision to speak out

970
00:40:42,335 --> 00:40:45,864
when he quit the Pentagon
secret UFO Unit in 2017.

971
00:40:46,984 --> 00:40:49,859
I think what Lue Elizondo
and others have done

972
00:40:50,243 --> 00:40:52,624
is kind of break that
mold a little bit

973
00:40:52,649 --> 00:40:54,656
where it's okay to
talk about this stuff.

974
00:40:54,910 --> 00:40:56,670
I've asked members
of Congress about it

975
00:40:56,695 --> 00:40:58,640
and they will tell
me, yeah, you know,

976
00:40:58,665 --> 00:41:00,063
there may be something to this.

977
00:41:01,302 --> 00:41:04,001
There's also a new generation
of members of Congress.

978
00:41:04,026 --> 00:41:06,325
They're younger, they're
more open-minded.

979
00:41:06,932 --> 00:41:08,674
They're not afraid to
ask tough questions.

980
00:41:09,388 --> 00:41:13,400
I think we're now seeing a
generation of elected leaders

981
00:41:13,425 --> 00:41:15,349
but also national
security officials who

982
00:41:15,374 --> 00:41:17,230
are more willing to
talk about this issue

983
00:41:17,255 --> 00:41:19,690
and don't see it as
much as a third rail.

984
00:41:20,131 --> 00:41:21,170
I think ultimately,

985
00:41:21,195 --> 00:41:22,592
it's a discussion
the American people

986
00:41:22,617 --> 00:41:23,796
have to have with themselves,

987
00:41:24,047 --> 00:41:25,686
and then tell your
political leaders

988
00:41:25,711 --> 00:41:27,296
what you expect and
what you want done.

989
00:41:33,313 --> 00:41:34,621
Lieutenant
Graves secret meeting

990
00:41:34,646 --> 00:41:35,814
lasted 90 minutes.

991
00:41:36,205 --> 00:41:38,493
It was off any public
schedule and unknown

992
00:41:38,527 --> 00:41:39,580
to members of the press.

993
00:41:40,033 --> 00:41:40,549
How'd it go?

994
00:41:40,574 --> 00:41:42,399
It seemed like they
recognized there is an issue.

995
00:41:42,959 --> 00:41:45,368
And they generally want
to figure out what it is.

996
00:41:45,614 --> 00:41:46,982
His account
was heard by members

997
00:41:47,007 --> 00:41:48,303
of the Congressional committees

998
00:41:48,328 --> 00:41:49,819
that oversee national security,

999
00:41:50,987 --> 00:41:52,913
as well as a team from
the Defense Department.

1000
00:41:56,449 --> 00:41:58,418
At what point was it
that people just stopped

1001
00:41:58,443 --> 00:42:00,503
being interested in
unexplained things?

1002
00:42:01,537 --> 00:42:03,746
I mean, that's kind of what
drives us, right?

1003
00:42:03,771 --> 00:42:06,240
We get out there and
we're learning new things,

1004
00:42:06,265 --> 00:42:07,458
at least, that's what drives me.

1005
00:42:07,934 --> 00:42:09,434
We're trying to
explore the unknown.

1006
00:42:10,799 --> 00:42:13,870
To see something every
day and just kind

1007
00:42:13,895 --> 00:42:15,872
of brush it aside and not
wanna raise the question

1008
00:42:15,897 --> 00:42:17,857
about hey, this is curious.

1009
00:42:17,857 --> 00:42:19,685
Maybe we should figure
something out about this.

1010
00:42:20,252 --> 00:42:22,786
It's extremely frustrating
that, potentially,

1011
00:42:22,811 --> 00:42:26,646
whether this is some type of
threat, you know, globally here,

1012
00:42:26,723 --> 00:42:30,606
if we have some type of red
air threat that's out there,

1013
00:42:30,631 --> 00:42:32,660
gathering our wave
forms and our tactics

1014
00:42:32,794 --> 00:42:36,865
or something else, if we're
not curious, then what are we?

1015
00:42:39,444 --> 00:42:40,988
On the
next Unidentified:

1016
00:42:41,670 --> 00:42:43,162
didn't really
wanna talk about it,

1017
00:42:43,984 --> 00:42:46,530
but I guess the
cat's out of the bag.

1018
00:42:46,555 --> 00:42:49,060
Whatever these UFOs
were, wherever they're from,

1019
00:42:49,085 --> 00:42:52,132
they had an intense interest
in anything nuclear.

1020
00:42:52,563 --> 00:42:55,274
Tell me what you
experienced back in 1980.

1021
00:42:55,666 --> 00:42:57,564
The on-duty police
lieutenant came in,

1022
00:42:57,589 --> 00:43:00,126
white as a sheet, and he said,
we saw lights in the forest.

1023
00:43:00,151 --> 00:43:01,314
There was something out there.

1024
00:43:02,037 --> 00:43:03,463
I don't know
exactly what it is,

1025
00:43:03,488 --> 00:43:05,143
but there's a beam
coming down to the grass.

1026
00:43:05,197 --> 00:43:07,276
I'm thinking, is this
some kind of communication?

1027
00:43:07,562 --> 00:43:09,656
I couldn't believe
what was happening.

1028
00:43:09,789 --> 00:43:12,134
They didn't
want the world to know,

1029
00:43:12,220 --> 00:43:13,597
which is kind of scary,

1030
00:43:14,113 --> 00:43:16,740
because you don't know what
els they're covering up.
