- We've got metal. - Hey! -Okay.

I think the right thing for us to do is

to get this material into a more powerful microscope in a lab.

That could tell us what elements these are made of.

- Fantastic. - I've got some movement

on a light source near Homestead Three.

Kaleb and I are going to go check it out.

Approaching Homestead Three with the drone.

There is no signs of any human presence.

Look at the heat coming out of the homestead.

It's like somebody's got a furnace on.

What in the world?

So watch what happens here..

Clearly, we've got a light source.

- And you can see the movement. - Wow.

The question is, do we have someone

or something moving through that area?

And if that's not a person we're seeing,

- what's out there? - I don't know what that is.

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.

Tammy.

- Nice to see you. - Good to see you again.

Today, Erik, Jim, Thomas and Chris are returning

to Utah Valley University

to run new lab tests on all the strange materials

we found in the mesa on Skinwalker Ranch.

We're going to head into the chemistry lab

- over here today. - All right.

- Hi, Brian. - Good morning, gentlemen.

- Welcome back. - Dr. Patchett,

- good to see you again. - Good to see you.

We're pretty frustrated

that our vertical drilling operation this year

didn't solve the mystery of the huge object

and the smaller anomalies that we've detected with GPR

and even hit while drilling in the past.

But we did bring up more metal fragments

from about 60 to 70 feet deep

that have no business being inside solid sandstone.

And then we've got the Type A and Type B ceramic materials

that were extracted last year at different depths.

We've only been able to test Type A so far,

but the results suggested

they could be related to spacecraft technology.

We've got a new member of our team here

for the first time, Chris Roberts.

- Chris. - This is the gentleman

responsible for the samples

that we brought in to date.

So we're hoping that Dr. Clark and Dr. Patchett

can help us learn more about all of this stuff

and what it could mean about what's buried in the mesa.

So I understand that we have the opportunity

to use a technique called FTIR...

- Yep. - In our analysis of some of the materials.

Now, I haven't spent a lot of time in a science lab,

so I'm not familiar with these terms.

What's FTIR? What does it mean

and what does it do?

FTIR is Fourier-transform spectrophotometer.

And basically, it can tell us

if there's a carbon-oxygen bond

or a carbon-hydrogen bond.

- What does that mean? - Well, it means

we could possibly date it.

With the FTIR,

we will take a beam

of infrared light,

and we will point it at the sample.

This will help us determine what kinds of bonds are in a sample.

If we see carbon-hydrogen bonds,

we might be able to use the samples found at the ranch

for radiocarbon dating

to find out exactly how old they might be.

So at headline level, we're looking for insights

into how is this material made and maybe when.

- Yes, when would be great. - Okay.

Okay. All right.

Well, what do you say we get some samples under test?

I was going to say, we've got precious minutes

here at the lab. Let's make use of them.

Yeah, let's make use of it.

That's fantastic. Well, I will leave you guys with Dr. Clark.

- Right. - Earlier this year...

Guys, Chris has been looking

at the properties of these materials

that we've brought out of the mesa.

Chris found organic buildup

on both types of the possible ceramics,

which is caused by being buried a very long time.

He estimated more than a thousand years.

Now, if that's true, it's crazy because they appear

to have been machine-made.

But when we recently had experts from Artemis Labs in Colorado

analyze a sample of Type A,

they were unable to date it

and couldn't even identify what it was.

So, Chris, which of the samples, will we begin with?

I'd like to start with Type A.

- Okay. - And then we'll go to Type B.

Okay.

- So now we're ready to go with the sample? - Yep.

I got to get this case open.

This is the Type A.

So that's a nice flat piece.

So we're just gonna...

bring that nice and snug.

- I'm in suspense. - Okay.

Well, let's try it. We'll see what happens.

You can see that we do have little absorbances there.

They look like little peaks, upside down peaks.

So that means there is some carbon in it?

It could be.

So, would we estimate

that we have enough carbon-dating information?

Yeah, it looks like it does have

carbon-hydrogen bonds there.

So depending on the sensitivity of that procedure,

- it should work. - Wow.

When Dr. Clark told the guys that

the Type A sample might be able

to be carbon-dated, that was pretty awesome news.

The only bummer is that carbon-dating these samples

will need to be done elsewhere and it'll take more time.

But at this point, we're happy with anything

that feels like progress.

I feel like we should look at another sample

- while we have the opportunity. - Yeah, while we can.

It's right here.

This is the Type B.

Under a black light, it actually seems to absorb light

so it goes darker than it is there.

And this is the only piece we have of this material.

Okay. I will be very gentle with it.

I'm anxious.

What is that?

That's not the same.

It's not absorbing any infrared wavelength.

It's just reflecting the light.

You said it's effectively reflecting all the light back?

So there's no carbon?

- Right, for... Yep. - Interesting.

Can you bring up Type A

- for comparison? - Yeah. Okay. Okay.

- Whoa. Look at that. - It's huge.

- Wow. - This is

qualitatively different.

Yeah, this doesn't look anything like the same.

This proves that this is a... definitely a different material?

- Yeah. Definitely. - All right, guys.

That piece of material definitely goes into

the scanning electron microscope.

- Yeah. - Okay.

High priority. This was great.

- Yeah. - Very interesting.

Thank you for doing this analysis, Tammy.

- Thanks for coming out. - Yeah. -Yeah.

- So, are we ready to head over to the SEM? - Yeah.

- Good. - All right. -Okay.

We need to take these materials,

put them under the SEM.

I'd really like to understand

what the materials are and do more elemental analysis

and elemental mapping.

- Dr. Patchett. - Erik, hello.

Because I feel like there are a lot

of unanswered questions

after our first examination

of these ceramic-like samples.

Well, we've got quite an ambitious agenda.

We've got a lot of samples to look at.

So I think it's important that we start with the Type A sample

and get that back on the stage

- into the instrument. - Yeah.

I remember, last year it looked like the ceramic was opening up,

physically, and creating large voids in it.

Yeah.

Are those holes getting bigger?

Yes. I think so.

When we examined the Type A sample

last year under the scanning electron microscope,

we got some pretty amazing results.

The beam of electrons the device emits

to analyze the object

appeared to make holes open on the sample's surface.

Let's turn it off to see if it goes back to normal.

And even more crazy, the holes looked like

they closed up after we shut the electron beam off.

Look at that.

This stuff is fixing itself.

Yes. It's healing. That's exactly right.

We want to see if that'll happen again.

- Are we set to go? - Yeah.

- I think so. - Yeah.

All right, so let's turn on our beam,

get a big-picture view really quick.

Okay.

The responsible thing to do is to repeat the exercise

in the scanning electron microscope on this Type A

ceramic-like material.

That will allow us to confirm whether or not

the beam really is making topological changes,

or if it was just an instrument artifact in the machine.

There we go.

I can see the cross-hatching.

- Yeah. - Look at that.

Let's zoom in here.

All right, you can tell you've got charging already.

Yeah.

Okay, now, notice also the difference.

Already you're seeing,

it takes on a very porous appearance quickly.

Yeah, this is all effects we saw last year.

- Yep. - This just validates

that we're getting exactly the same behavior qualitatively.

- Yeah. - Okay.

I'm seeing the same contrast changes that we saw last year.

Consistency is good, and I'm more convinced than ever

that we are seeing significant effects

of the electron beam on the surface.

All right. Should we move on?

Yes, let's move on

- to the Type B sample. - Yeah.

Now, the really interesting question

is whether the Type B material

would be comparable to the Type A changes that we saw last year.

- It's a little dark. - Yeah.

You know what I'm not seeing yet?

I'm not seeing any of those conspicuous sort of openings.

Yeah. It doesn't seem to be changing.

Clearly, they are different materials.

- Right. - Maybe they're from two

different buried objects?

Clearly, they are different

materials.

This is the first sample surface.

Maybe they're from two different buried objects.

Yeah, the two look very distinct.

Yeah, I agree.

The behavior of this Type B ceramic

under SEM analysis

is quite different than the Type A ceramic.

We're not seeing any of the changes

that we might have expected to see

based on our previous results.

I think it's pretty clear,

we're dealing with materials that are completely different.

But what are they doing inside of the mesa?

So this is one we might look

- at elemental analysis on? - Yeah, we can do that

- right now. - Yep.

Let's start with the Type B.

Sure. We're going

to take a spectrum of the elements

- that are on the surface. - Okay.

It's one thing to see the physical differences

in these materials.

But we need the elemental analysis

of this stuff to make sure they truly are

different from one another.

Okay. So we're starting to see

there is some oxygen,

quite a bit of calcium, some phosphorus,

and then trace amounts

of silicon, aluminum, iron, sulfur, potassium,

and all these things are present in the Earth's crust.

Okay.

Well, this isn't the answer we hoped for,

but it might give us the bottom line on Type B.

These are the exact elements that make up the Earth's crust.

So Type B was likely made

from materials that naturally occur in the mesa.

But what about Type A?

We still don't know who made it or how they made it.

Can we compare that to the composition

of the Type A sample?

Yeah.

Yeah, let me zoom in here.

Okay. There is a stronger magnesium

- that is multiple times higher. - Okay.

And a lot more aluminum than iron.

Yeah.

Far less calcium.

They're significantly different from each other.

Okay.

This just makes me more convinced

that we're looking at engineered materials

- with Type A. - Right.

I think the most important takeaway

from all the Type A materials we found in the mesa

is that they were likely manufactured by someone.

But who? And for what purpose?

By continuing to study them, we might

bring some kind of understanding

if not closure to the mystery of this anomaly in the mesa.

I want to take a look

at that layered metal piece that we found

- in the mesa this year. - Yeah.

Yeah, it looks like it was manufactured that way

- intentionally. - Okay.

Ceramics in solid rock is just plain weird.

And metal in solid rock is even weirder, so,

if the metal is another part of the object or objects

buried in the mesa,

maybe figuring out what it's composed of is the key

to solving this whole mystery.

- Wow. - So there's a stronger...

prevalence of iron in this sample?

- Am I reading that right? - Yeah.

Can you zoom in to get more precise data?

Sure.

Yeah, so what did I just see happen here?

- It just went dark. - Lost...

- We've lost the image. - Yeah, it was on there,

- and then it just went black. - Yeah.

I'm checking the filament integrity,

Because in order to produce an image, we need

a source of electrons...

Yeah.

We have just blown our filament.

This particular filament was actually only

about halfway through its lifespan,

according to the software.

- Is that a big repair? - Yes, it is.

Which means

we're dead in the water until I can get that replaced.

Interesting.

The electron source, the filament itself has burned out.

I don't know why this has happened.

The timing couldn't be worse.

This is another one of those situations

where things go exactly wrong at exactly the wrong time.

Is it just a coincidence?

Do we assign special cause to that? I don't know.

The good news is, we've only made our way

through a small fraction of the spoils

that have come out of our recent drilling.

So by the time we come back,

there could be a lot more of this material up there

to be collected and analyzed.

Dr. Patchett, thanks again for the analysis.

It's always a pleasure to have you guys on campus.

All right. I think it's time to pack it up.

All right.

All right.

So, I think this is a pretty good spot, y'all.

I mean, we've got a good view in here

looking at Homestead Three.

The following day, we set up for a new experiment

at Homestead Three, located near the western property line

of Skinwalker Ranch.

I've not heard a lot of history from this site.

But we do have our own experience.

And we've seen lights out here when we were doing experiments.

Homestead Three is one of the abandoned

early 20th-century dwellings on the ranch.

There's very little hard documentation of the property,

but its previous owners, the Locke family,

reported witnessing all sorts of strange events

while living here,

from unexplained cattle mutilations

to UAP sightings.

In 2016, just after Brandon Fugal purchased the property,

he and Erik led a group of scientific experts

and private security on a tour of Homestead Three.

There, a security guard was overcome

by something that made him go catatonic.

He ended up being okay, but over the past six years,

our team hasn't had any other encounters there.

That is, until last week.

Thomas is starting to pump smoke now.

We were several hundred yards to the east at Homestead Two,

investigating a recent UAP sighting

and possible communication signals

that we detected in one of the buildings.

What is that all the way over there?

Suddenly, Erik saw a strange light

on a surveillance camera appear over Homestead Three.

When Jim Royston tried to track it down

with his thermal drone, the light disappeared.

But then we were all shocked

to see a massive heat anomaly filling the main building.

Look at the heat

- coming out of the homestead. - I know.

It was like it was on fire in the thermal camera.

But with the naked eye,

we couldn't see anything in there.

So tonight we want to figure out just what the heck that was.

What I was thinking is, kind of

repeat what we did at Homestead Two with the laser grid.

Maybe put it in this window on the north side?

And the smoke

through the door? Thomas, what do you think?

Yep.

Just like last week's experiment,

we're going to use lasers to project a grid of light

inside of Homestead Three.

Then we'll fill the building with smoke.

The lasers and smoke combined will allow us

to look for anything passing through the grid

that might be invisible to the naked eye.

Now, to add to that,

I'd like us to try something between Homestead Two

and Homestead Three. I'm convinced that there's

some kind of connection between 'em.

So I want to try transmitting a 1.2-gigahertz signal here

and see if it shows up at Homestead Two.

All right, I say we get to it.

While the rest of the team began setting up the laser grid,

Erik and I wanted to run a little test

to see if there's a connection

between Homestead Three and Homestead Two.

During last week's experiment,

after I broadcast a 1.6-gigahertz signal,

something seemed to clone the signal

and send it back to us from inside Homestead Two.

Where's that signal coming from?

It was another case of something unexplained cloning our signals.

So Erik will broadcast a new test signal

at 1.2 gigahertz from Homestead Three

for a few minutes and then turn it off.

At that point, Kaleb and I will be monitoring

our own spectrum analyzers at Homestead Two

to see if something clones that signal

and starts broadcasting it again.

All right, we're good to go.

Hey, Erik. We're all set up here at Homestead Two.

Yeah, copy that.

All right, let's see here.

I don't know what's happening right there.

That's some kind of 1.2-gigahertz signal.

See the peak right there.

Erik, did you just turn on the signal generator

at 1.2 gigahertz?

No, Travis,

we haven't done that yet.

What in the world?

So where is this signal coming from?

Man, that's just weird.

What in the world?

So where is this signal coming from?

Look at it. It's just... I...

I don't know what's going on.

That's a pretty strong one.

All right, man. That signal went away.

It's not there anymore.

That was the strangest thing.

Before Erik even had the chance to broadcast his test signal

at 1.2 gigahertz from Homestead Three,

I picked up that same frequency for a few seconds

over at Homestead Two.

Before, we thought

something was cloning the signals that we broadcast.

Now it's like it's reading our minds

and beating us to the punch.

What in the world could do that?

That's really interesting.

I wonder what that was.

Ooh. Something weird has happened

to this gamma ray detector. Check this out.

Is that, like, damage to the screen?

Yeah. Something's fried it.

What the crap?

We always carry gamma ray detectors

to look out for radiation spikes on the ranch,

because they occasionally appear out of nowhere.

Well, right after that 1.2-gigahertz signal showed up,

I suddenly noticed that the screen

on my gamma ray detector was busted

and the device was fried.

Was this caused by whatever sent that signal?

That made me want to see if Erik and I

could get something else to happen

by broadcasting his 1.2-gigahertz signal

from over at Homestead Three.

Hey, Erik. It's Travis. You copy?

Yeah, Travis.

Go ahead.

If you want to do a test on that 1.2-gigahertz transmitter

from the table, that would be good.

Yeah, Travis.

Let me turn that on. Stand by.

All right. You should be seeing it. We've got it

on the spectrum analyzers here.

Well...

- No. - Not seeing it.

Nope, nothing.

I'm tuned up to 1.2, but I'm not seeing any spikes.

Are you seeing it down there?

Negative.

I... As close as that is, we shouldn't have any difficulty.

I mean, look, I've picked that thing up

all the way from, you know, a mile from here.

There's only about

700 feet between Homestead Two and Homestead Three.

Our range on spectrum analyzers is several times that.

Let me double-check the gain one more time.

So, was something blocking it here at Homestead Two?

Or was it being blocked by something

over at Homestead Three?

Or something in between?

Travis, we've got an idea down here at the table

that we want to give a try...

we're going to take the transmitter your way.

All right, copy that.

I think we ought to see how close

we have to get to your location before you start picking it up.

With that high-gain antenna,

you should be seeing it perfectly.

Yeah, well, we're watching, so head our way.

Travis,

we're just about a quarter of the way right now.

Are you seeing the signal yet?

I'm not seeing it at all down here.

That is strange.

I wonder if they're still picking it up

over at Homestead Three.

Hey, Erik, are you still seeing the signal?

Strong as can be.

Copy that. Well, we'll continue.

All right.

That makes no sense.

He literally has no antenna, and he's picking us up fine.

Right. I'd say we're more than halfway.

- Yeah. - We are still transmitting,

and we're more than halfway

to you. I mean, we're closer to you now

than we are the science tent.

Keep walking toward me, Thomas.

We got to figure this out.

That is just bizarre to me.

Travis, we're just about to walk up on you now.

Come on to us, Thomas. I want to see if we can...

I mean, I don't even need the walkie now.

- I can hear you. - I know.

If I can hear you, I should be picking up that signal

like crazy.

- What was that? - What was that?

You've got to be sh...

What was that signal?

It's some kind of weird signal.

Wowie. What in the crap?

My computer's locking up on me.

I'm gonna restart this thing.

Something's going on here,

like with the gamma ray detector earlier.

Thomas, can you and Jim go check the dosimeter out back?

Let's go out and look.

I wondered if the same thing

that fried the gamma ray detector is what caused

my computer to freeze up. And if it was,

I wanted to see if our detector out back could verify

that a strange spike had indeed occurred.

Showing anything?

It says "dosimeter alarm." What's that?

That means it spiked if it went over threshold.

"Dosimeter mode dose alarm."

- Yeah. - So it has spiked, then.

Yep. Now the readings are normal.

- All right. - It's like

- we got nuked by something. - It was working...

Yeah, you guys did.

I don't know what

could be there to account for that spike

on the instrument, but the fact that the dosimeter showed

dangerously high counts of gamma radiation is concerning.

We definitely need to find some answers for what took place.

So, we've got

- the dosimeter alarm going off. - Really?

Well, it spiked

- enough to trigger the alarm. - Yeah.

Makes me not even want to be over here.

- I know. - I know. Why don't we

get out of here and join the others back at Homestead Three?

- Not a bad idea. - Yeah.

None of us felt sick

or like any radiation physically affected us.

But since my gamma ray detector clearly got hit

by something earlier,

and now the stationary dosimeter is showing an alarm, too,

we needed to hedge our bets, get out of there,

and rejoin the others over at Homestead Three.

Look at this. Here's the gamma ray detector.

Wow.

It was working in my pocket. We drove down there,

I pulled it out and set it on the table.

- I watched the screen just go... - I got you.

Well, I'm telling you, I think it's fried.

I-I mean, I think something hit it.

Yeah.

Well, look, that's a...

This has been an interesting, bizarre thing already.

And we ain't even got started

on the experiment with Homestead Three.

I say we go get the laser grids going

and get the smoke machines in there.

- What do y'all think? - I am ready for it.

All right. Let's go in there.

All right, Thomas,

how are y'all setting it up back here?

- Right there. - That's perfect. Yeah.

Well, I'm gonna head back to the tables. All right.

After everything that happened

earlier tonight at Homestead Two,

we can't wait to see what will happen

during our smoke and laser grid experiment

inside of Homestead Three.

They're about to come get the smoke machines

and start smoking it up.

Yeah. Perfect.

So, we're gonna hit that front room first, yeah?

Yeah, we'll see the beams going across.

Using a smoke gun, we're gonna fill both rooms

of the building completely,

so if anything strange passes through our laser beams,

it'll be easier to see on our thermal cameras.

There was something moving through the laser beam.

- Yeah, I see it. - You see that?

Last week, this method helped us

see something moving through Homestead Two.

So, we're hoping this experiment will help identify

whatever caused the heat anomaly we spotted here

with Jim's thermal drone.

- Yeah. - Look.

- You seeing the smoke in there? - Yeah, it's...

- Yeah, look at it go. - It's going in.

- That's awesome. - All right.

So now we're seeing the beams.

- Yep. - That's perfect.

All right, guys.

Dude, I can see the beams real good through there.

Let's watch and see if any...

if any anomalous behavior happens there.

I'm not seeing anything yet.

Thomas, any chance

of hitting the front room anymore with some smoke?

All right.

All right. Here I can see it

kind of painting the space.

- How's that? - That's good, Thomas.

Thank you.

Hadn't seen anything anomalous in it yet

that I can understand.

Jim, you about to get the drone up?

- Yeah. - Why don't you see

if we have anything going on at Homestead Two?

Yep.

It's disappointing that we weren't seeing anything

in real time on our monitors at Homestead Three.

But since that weird heat anomaly showed up here,

when we were running this same experiment last week

at Homestead Two...

Look at the heat coming out of the homestead.

It's like somebody's got a furnace on.

We wanted to see if maybe

we'd have the reverse happen

and capture something strange

over there with Jim's drone.

Drone going up.

Maybe he'll see something

that might help explain that possible

radiation spike we had earlier.

Yeah, I'm over Homestead Two.

And it's going red.

Look, I just lost RC...

- See the controller? - Look at that.

"Controller signal weak" right over Homestead Two.

How about that?

There's the broadcast error.

Yeah, yeah. "Failed to obtain remote control."

As soon as Jim reached Homestead Two,

his drone glitched. But why?

Look at that.

Why is it saying, "Unable to take off"?

It thinks you're on the ground, dude.

How bizarre is that?

Man, there is something over Homestead Two, I'm telling you.

Well, so, your drone's messed up, my computer was messed up.

The gamma ray detector was nuked. It's crazy.

Aye.

Could the culprit be whatever sent

that 1.2-gigahertz signal at the start of everything?

And was it caused by something that was trying

to stop us from investigating Homestead Three?

These are the kind of questions we now have

to legitimately ask ourselves.

All right, I'm coming right back towards us.

And look at that.

When I got out away from Homestead Two,

- I got better. - Yeah.

Wow. That's crazy.

All right, Thomas and Kaleb, let's smoke it

- and do this one more time. - Yeah, copy you.

- Go. - All we could do at that point

was blast one more round of smoke into Homestead Three

and hope to see if anything would register

on our thermal cameras.

That's good. That's good.

Well, I'm not seeing anything that is saying

unusual phenomena or anything.

I don't see anything unexpected here.

We gave it almost another hour,

but we weren't seeing anything odd on our monitors.

I think we've got all the data we can collect for tonight.

And who knows?

- When we process it... - Yeah.

We might see something different.

Yeah. Yeah.

All right, guys, you can turn it off

- and come on back. - Moving.

After all the problems that we encountered,

all the vexing results that we got,

it invites speculation as to whether

the connection between Homestead Two and Homestead Three

would be the cause of these kinds of events.

I think we're all looking forward to reviewing

the video data, which often lends more insight

than we observed in the moment.

I don't... I don't know what to think

about what we've done so far tonight,

other than the Homestead Two thing's got me baffled.

Yeah, that's for sure.

Well, that's kind of more concerning,

especially with what happened to that.

Yeah. That gamma ray detector's just fried, dude.

And my computer, I think it's fried.

I don't know what to do about it.

Well, we'll certainly review everything that we've recorded,

but this has been very interesting, guys.

- Yeah. - Yep. All right.

- Let's just call it a night, guys. - Yeah, let's do. -Okay.

- Hey, guys. - Hey, there.

Very interesting set of events

that played out last night.

Late the next morning,

we all gathered at the command center

to review the processed data from our experiment.

So, my computer was completely dead this morning.

- Yeah. - Wow.

Something corrupted it so badly

that I had to completely do a factory reset

on the operating system,

and get new spectrum analyzers

and radio receivers connected

to it before it would work again.

Did the original

radio receivers get damaged by whatever happened?

Yes, the original radio receivers

that were connected to it were fried.

The display

- on the... - The gamma ray detector?

The gamma ray detector bothers me. Like...

It was also connected to the laptop.

This is a very specific,

complicated kind of interference.

- Yeah. What did that? - No kidding.

You know, we're still trying to sort out,

are we dealing with something intelligent

out there at Homestead Two? It affected specific hardware

connected to your computer.

- Yeah. It's selective destruction. - Yeah.

It really feels like we were targeted.

Good point, Kaleb.

Yeah, I'm 100% convinced that it's targeted.

The craziness at Homestead Two

still has us wondering what in the hell was going on out there.

In recent years, we've had so many freaky experiences,

from possible communication signals,

to people suddenly becoming ill.

Heck, I was hit by a radiation spike in 2018

that left burns on my hand and face.

It's all adding up to make us think

these things aren't random at all.

They only happen to us when we investigate there.

So, what is it?

This is the right point to bring up what we saw

- inside of Homestead Three. - Yeah.

We saw no strange activity in the moment,

so I want to review the video together

and see if we notice anything.

Yeah. Let's look at that.

Okay. So here, we're gonna be seeing the...

you know, the room on the west side.

- Yep. - And I'll just

let it play through.

Okay, let me stop there.

So was there anything in particular

that caught your attention?

The one question I have, Thomas,

is where was the laser beam

in this particular point?

We had it in the window

pointed straight at the wall.

That's the one thing that's getting me confused, is

why do the beams look like they're at an angle here,

- and they shouldn't be? - Yes. Exactly.

They'd have to be mounted at the ceiling almost.

The camera and

the laser were literally right next to each other.

This doesn't add up.

They should be going out like that.

They should be more straight on

- from the camera. - Yeah. Be flat.

It looks like these lasers are coming like...

From the corner. It looks like they're coming from the corner

- over there. - Yes.

Right now, we're seeing these lasers

like they're coming down at an angle from the right.

But based off the position of the laser where we placed it,

we should be seeing these beams projected almost straight on

and a little from right next to the camera.

What the heck is going on?

Yeah, now this doesn't make any sense.

All right. I'll play this through to the end.

If you do see a feature, call it out.

Now, once again,

the beams coming from the wrong direction.

And where are the dots that should be

on the left-hand side of the wall?

Yeah, when we set it up, the beams were

hitting this... the entire wall over here,

even part of that window.

They absolutely were hitting the entire wall.

The grid was covering the entire wall.

A hundred percent.

And we were looking at it in real time.

- Yeah. - So, if it moved

or something bumped it, we would've seen it.

Then this picture is just wrong.

- It's wrong. - The beams

that we're seeing in this room

do not match where the laser was.

No.

I feel like we're in the Twilight Zone.

First, we've got lasers going in directions

that don't match where they were positioned.

And now, a whole part of the grid is completely missing.

So, what the heck could have altered our video

between the time we recorded it and now?

Could it be connected to whatever fried my computer

at Homestead Two?

Nothing I've got to volunteer at this point can account

for missing light over here.

Let's look to see if there's any other images

that don't make sense.

All right, I'll continue to the next one.

Now this one's gonna take us into the other room.

Okay.

Now that looks more like what I was...

- I would expect. - Yes.

The first thing that jumps out to me is,

we can see the laser grid in the room we were just looking at.

Yes, right!

And this confirms it was right where

- we thought it was. - Which is completely not where

the dad gum thing was coming from in that other video.

So what changed the appearance of the laser beams?

I don't know what's going on here.

- That's weird. - How could that

happen?

So, what changed the appearance

- of the laser beams? - Right.

This is our positioning of the laser

relative to the window. To the top of the window here.

It's like the image on the other camera

- was hacked and changed. - Yep.

Last night,

when we watched the camera feed live at Homestead Three,

the lasers that we projected against the walls

looked straight and level, but now,

as we watch it back,

the lasers look like they're on an angle,

and some are even missing.

So, did something on the ranch hack our video

after the fact to make it look messed up?

Or here's another idea.

Did something hack it in real time

to make it look normal in the moment,

to stop us from investigating it right then and there?

There's one more thing I want to review.

This has to do with the thermal camera.

This is the stationary camera facing the front door

- of Homestead Three. - Okay.

It'll jump right out at you.

That.

Did you see that flash?

Wow. That's wild.

That is really odd and bizarre.

I've backed up by one frame.

There it is.

- Yeah. - It's like the surface

of the homestead flashed.

This suggests it was illuminated suddenly

with a bright, infrared source.

This was "boom!" Like a flashbulb on a camera.

It's not a software glitch.

That looks to me like it actually happened,

whatever it was.

There are flashes like that

that are in the infrared range of light.

They wouldn't be visible to the naked eye,

and they could go all the way down to maybe even

- the radio waves. - Radio waves?

- Yeah, you could... - Like maybe

frying circuit radio waves?

- Yeah. Sure. - Yeah.

Same type of radio waves that could mess up

- a spectrum analyzer? - Exactly that.

That's interesting.

What if this is a catch,

another piece of the phenomenon,

whatever it was that damaged my computer.

Radio frequency waves

can cause the illusion of flashes of infrared light,

like the one our thermal camera picked up in Homestead Three.

So, could Thomas be right

that it's related to my computer's meltdown

over at Homestead Two?

If so, where did it come from?

And could it also be connected to the warped laser videos

and the other things we've recently encountered?

Well, I think what this shows us is that

the connectivity between the homesteads...

Homestead Two and Homestead Three...

have a strange interaction,

electromagnetically and even thermally,

doing something to our equipment.

Screwed up your drone and fried the software in the computer.

We had the laser beam that

appeared in the camera in a place it wasn't.

So many data points

from different events that are telling us,

there's something weird going on here. But what?

So, given what we've seen, we need to keep investigating

both Homestead Two and Three.

This has been yet another fascinating discussion.

A bit confusing, but, we're used to that.

- It's been a great review. - I agree.

Okay.

Sounds good, guys.

What do we know about the connection

between Homestead Two and Homestead Three?

This intervening space between these two locations

continues to draw our attention.

Unexpected RF signals.

Strange things happen with our rockets

and our drone platforms, unexpected interference.

What could be going on beyond the bubble boundary

that could account for some

of the strange phenomena that we've seen?

I would really like to know.

Homestead Three has been a mystery,

but these new findings, as unexplained

and mysterious as they may be,

are key puzzle pieces

to help us understand the evolving picture

of what is behind the rich history

and the strange anomalies at Skinwalker Ranch.

I don't know what could be lingering inside

decaying old buildings

that would explain what we experienced this week.

But it's clear that from the homesteads

to the mesa to the bubble,

this ranch is loaded with phenomena

that keeps testing our mettle to identify it.

And all I can say is, "Game on, Skinwalker Ranch."

- Drones are going up. - Sky Elements is gonna

help us scan not only inside the bubble

but much higher above it.

We're at 3,000 feet.

- Whoa. - Drones coming down!

Drones coming down!

We arranged for Doppler radar

to hopefully see strange things.

Wow. Look at this.

Where?

Holy crap.
