-I got a headache bro.
-Uh, his head
is starting to hurt.

THOMAS:
Here, jump in here real quick.

We may have to get you
off the ranch.

The fact that something
would be interfering

points to malevolent intent.

In our tradition,
if you see something,

you don't talk about it.

-TRAVIS: Hey, Look!
UAP right there.
-GARY: Yup.

So we have a region
in altitude that tells us

there is some kind on phenomenon

taking place right here
over the triangle.

NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years,
the federal government

tried to find answers
and failed.

Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts
has taken over.

They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

TRAVIS:
I don't know if it's

the things we're doing
that's stimulating these things

like launching rockets.

But there seems to be
something happening that is

jamming, hacking, spoofing us.

TRAVIS:
We've recently conducted

two new experiments at
the triangle and have gotten

more confirmation
that something strange

is happening about
a mile above that area.

CAMERON:
Three, two, one, bottle drop.

TRAVIS:
First, we dropped GPS units

from Brandon's helicopter
down through it.

TRAVIS:
Holy cow. Look at that.

So we threw it out right there

and then, look, it goes upwind.

But something we couldn't see

seemed to deflect
our instruments

away from the spot.

The rocket is going hot.

Then, we launched rockets
up there with a team

of former military experts
who brought a specialized

tracking system
for studying UAP.

-Hey look, UAP right there.
-GARY: Yep. I see it.

TRAVIS:
We did stimulate something
to appear in the sky,

but the tracking system

mysteriously shut down
over and over...

You got to be kidding me.

...preventing us
from getting any data.

Everything just went off-line.

We need to find a way
to collect data in that zone

for a sustained period of time

to figure out just what's
causing these strange events

that keep happening
on Skinwalker Ranch.

Well, you know,
these rockets are great

and we're seeing this data.
The problem with them is

they go up so fast
and come down so fast,

I don't feel like you guys are
really getting a lot of data.

A typical flight trajectory is,

even with a very
big chute on them,

is less than 20 or 30 seconds.

-Yeah.
-So, it would be
nice to linger there

like with a fixed-wing aircraft
that we could just keep fly--

orbiting over the spot,
or something.

You know, where we just make

a push broom-type of pattern
at various altitudes.

TRAVIS:
You could do that with, like,
a Cessna or something like that

and you could put
plenty of instruments in it.

They could go about a hundred
miles an hour, or slower,

and just push broom back
and forth over the ranch.

And then you could
go up in altitude

and do it again
and keep doing it.

We could get a complete 3D map

of GPS, gamma rays, radio,

whatever we wanted
to do like that.

Well, we've talked about this
for a while, I say we do it.

-Right.
-TRAVIS: I'll bet you

that Cameron knows somebody,

that's got a plane that would
do this, that would help us out.

Okay, should we go do it?

We need to reach out to Cameron
to see if he can help us out.

BRYANT:
Sounds good.

TRAVIS:
Thanks, Erik.

TOM: Right up here is where
the petroglyph is.

KANDUS:
Okay.

TRAVIS:
While we were preparing

for the experiment
above the triangle,

Tom Lewis
and Kandus Linde went to

nearby McConkie Ranch
to meet with a respected

Navajo Nation's member
named Jon Dover.

I think he said he was
going to meet us

-just at the trailhead up here.
-JON: Hello!

-I'm up here.
-TOM: Jon.

Hello.

Come on up.

Let's head on up.

TRAVIS:
Now, we want

any information that can
help us with our investigation

and the Indigenous people
in this region

have a long history with
all kinds of strange phenomenon.

-KANDUS: You're good?
-TOM: Oh, yeah.

TOM: Just recently,
we met with Corey Serawop

who shared a story with us

about his experience
in the Uinta Basin.

One thing he brought up was
that we should visit

McConkie Ranch and check out
the petroglyphs there.

This is amazing.

KANDUS:
Wow, yeah.

TOM:
Jon Dover has
a deep understanding

of the petroglyphs
and pictographs that are up

on the walls at McConkie Ranch.

And so, Kandus and I
are very interested

to hear what Jon has to say.

-Ah, there you are. Hi.
-JON: Hey, there.

-Glad you made it.
-Thanks so much for having us.

-Kandus.
-Jon.

Jon, nice to meet you.

-And I'm Tom.
-Hi, Tom.

JON:
My name is Jonathan Dover.

I spent 27 years

as a, uh, archeological
resource investigator

with the Navajo Nation Rangers.

KANDUS:
Oh, wow.

Yeah, this place is amazing.

JON:
This is one place
of a whole bunch of places

that have petroglyphs

that were put on these rocks
a thousand years ago

or even earlier than that.

Mm-hmm.

JON:
The ancient people
that populated

this place and some of the other
places around here show

that the natives back then

were seeing unusual
things happening

and were recording them, too.

There's a lot of information
that's put on these rocks

and they are put on
in successive "timescape."

Everybody that came through
would add something to it.

They're a record and...

unusual things would be
documented on them.

They could depict clans,
they could depict Gods,

they could even
depict maps of the area.

Yeah, we have a few small panels
at the ranch and we're really

trying to tie anything together
that's in this region

to the ranch,
to see if there's

connections or anything
that we could draw

lines to.

We'll definitely see
some connections here.

KANDUS:
Excellent.

If we go further down here,

we're going to take
a look at one of them.

-TOM: Great.
-Show us the way.

Wow.

Here is the most interesting
one that I've found so far,

is this spiral right here.

The spiral seems
to be universal.

All through

the United States,
through the Southwest,

in Europe, in Africa.

Some archeologists
tell me that this spiral

could refer to
some kind of a portal.

-A portal?
-JON: Yeah, a portal.

Okay.

JON:
And, uh, we think
that there's something

called infrasound.

Which is different
frequencies of sound

that you can't detect them
with human hearing.

And we believe that
it's very possible

that these different frequencies

can open portals
to other places.

TRAVIS:
For two years now,

all over Skinwalker Ranch
we've seen this strange signal

with an RF frequency
of 1.6 gigahertz.

BRYANT:
We've got liftoff.

TRAVIS:
Oh, my God, during launch

the electromagnetic
spectrum is going

crazy, guys-- I've never
seen anything like it.

No technology that we know of

uses this specific
1.6 gigahertz frequency,

but we often see it
when people have

physiological
episodes on the ranch,

and also, when we've seen UAPs.

Now, the idea that UAP
and strange frequencies

are somehow connected to
a phenomenon like a portal,

is very interesting,

especially since many
of the Indigenous people

in this area truly believe
that connection exists.

You're saying this is a portal?
Or could be a portal?

This very much
could be a portal.

The significance of portals

or dimensional gates,
if you would...

Mm-hmm.

...is that
the Navajos themselves

talk about a people
coming to visit.

Different dimensions
are not like walls.

If you can imagine...

...they're interlaced together.

So,

what if every now and then
something just leaks through?

-Mm-hmm.
-You could travel,

-we just don't know
how to do it.
-Yeah.

Even the Navajo creation story

talks about coming through
several different worlds

until they see a hole in the sky

and they climb up
into this world.

We think that there's something
going on with frequency...

...that is creating this effect.

Wow.

There's a lot more
we need to look at up here.

-All right.
-So, we'll move along here.

TOM:
As we were looking at
this spiral petroglyph

described as a portal,
Kandus and I realized

there is some sort
of connection here

with what's happening
on the ranch

and possibly at the triangle.

We've heard a lot of

very interesting stories
about seeing portals

that opened right
above people's heads

and figures coming out
of these portals.

-It's amazing.
-JON: Yeah.

KANDUS:
Oh, yeah. I see it.

-TOM: Oh, and that's
like a human...
-KANDUS: It's another figure.

One thing I've just
thought about is, you know,

just on this rock wall
right here,

and it is speculation
and inference...

-Right.
-TOM: But...

we could have
a skinwalker shape-shifter.

We could have...

-aliens.
-Somebody coming through
another dimension.

-Through other dimensions.
-JON: Right.

The idea of Navajo skinwalkers,

gods coming from the sky,

even UFOs,

all had one thing in common
and that's this idea

of dimensions and portals,

and it's the one thing
that ties everything together.

With the spirals
back here that you were

talking about could be
indicative of-of a portal,

it could be that
it was right here

or maybe off in the distance?

What do you think?

It-it could be a whole
range of things.

We've actually

had stories involving
UAPs that have

entered into mesas...

...and just gone
right into the rock.

This idea of portals,
of dimensions,

it all ties together, and that's
what we're seeing with a lot

of these places and I think
that's what you're

experiencing
in the Uinta Basin there.

A lot of phenomenon
that's associated

with cross-dimensional
things going on.

KANDUS:
Wow. We'd really love

to have you come to the ranch
and look at a few things.

Based on what
you've told us today

and your interpretation
of these panels,

I think there's a good
chance that the same

people that were here

could've very well been
on our ranch at one point.

I think we'd both benefit

from you coming to the ranch
and giving your insight to

-what we've seen there.
-TOM: We have some

very interesting things
right on the Skinwalker Ranch.

It might be things you've
never seen before, so...

-I'd love to come over there.
-KANDUS: Great.

TOM:
Lead the way.

TRAVIS: I think we should
stop right here.

Because of what happened
last year with the sensors

on Brandon's helicopter

detecting an object
right below us,

and also, what happened
just two weeks ago

when we dropped GPS units
into the triangle anomaly

which appeared
to just bounce off

of an invisible object
in the sky above the ranch...

-Hey, Kendra, how are you?
-Hey.

TRAVIS: ...we really
wanted to go further

with attempting
to map that anomaly.

So, to conduct
today's experiment

above the triangle area,

Cameron Fugal put us in touch
with a pilot named Kendra Hart

who's agreed to take
Erik up in her Cessna

to help us collect our data.

Since you fly out here, have
you flown over the property?

The ranch itself?

I have not.

Most of my students
stay further west and so,

this will be my first time
this far out east

and especially
over the ranch, so...

-ERIK: Really?
-Yeah, it will be my first time.

-ERIK: First time?
-First time.
-TRAVIS: So...

What we want to do is fly
from here over to the ranch.

When you get there,

we would like for you
to do a grid pattern,

at, uh, five
different altitudes.

Erik will show you
the points of interest,

but there's a triangle right
in the middle of the property

and directly above that,

between, say,
2,500 and 5,000 feet,

we've seen some weird things.

-KENDRA: Okay.
-And, so we're hoping to get

some instrumentation
in that area

and see if we can figure out
what those weird things are.

-Awesome.
-TRAVIS: One thing that,

uh, not to scare you,
but occasionally,

when people are
on the ranch and even

above the ranch have

sort of a physiological
response to being there.

If you start feeling
anything at any point,

you know, you're the pilot,

if it's time to
abort the mission

'cause you got a weird feeling,
then you abort the mission.

-All right?
-Mm-hmm.

Well, we've got some work
to do to get ready to go

and you may have
some flight prep

-or something.
-Absolutely.

So, we'll be maybe in
and out of the cargo area

-for the next couple minutes
and then we'll be ready to go.
-Okay.

-Let's get it done.
-TRAVIS: All right, Erik,
let's grab everything.

ERIK:
I'll be going up in
the Cessna aircraft today

with some GPS trackers

and a data-logging
radiation meter,

our standard equipment set
including our spectrum analyzer,

Geiger counter

and other local equipment
to observe whether

there are any GPS anomalies

up near the 5,000-foot point
over the triangle.

TRAVIS:
All right.

I'm gonna close it up and
then go put it in the plane.

Sounds good.

TRAVIS:
Today, the plan is to fly

the Cessna in a sequential push
broom pattern over the ranch

sweeping back and forth
over the triangle

at various altitudes.
At the same time,

using the GPS sensors
to collect data

that we hope will give us
a three-dimensional model

of the anomaly

that we believe is up there
somewhere between

3,000 and 5,000 feet
above the ground.

-What do you got there?
-This is your headset.

-ERIK: Got it.
-Okay, and then,
this is the radio

that we are using
for the radio source.

ERIK:
For this experiment,
we're also making use of

a new avionic comm system,

making it easier
for us to directly

communicate from
the aircraft to the ground.

I'm gonna head back
over to the ranch.

You guys get in the air.
We're burning daylight, right?

-See you.
-All right, see you in a bit.

ERIK:
While I'm in the plane
above the ranch,

the rest of the team
will be monitoring from below.

I'm really excited
to see what happens

during the course
of the experiment.

THOMAS:
I've got these antennas running.

-This is going out
to the two jaggies.
-Okay.

Once she gets over here,
we should, uh,

see her start tracking on there.

THOMAS:
Okay.

We're going to monitor
this experiment

with a couple of
different systems.

First, we have an ADSB.

Now, that identifies
all the air traffic flying

in the vicinity of the ranch
and shows them on a map.

We've also mounted
two antennas

on the deck
of the command center.

Those are pointed
at the triangle

to track the signals being
broadcast from Kendra's plane

as well as scan

for any dangerous
energy spikes

like we've detected
there in the past.

All right, great.
Ah, let me get this going.

There it is, got it.
All right, both are...

Both antennas and radios
are functioning properly.

Hey, Kaleb.

This is the command center,
do you copy?

Go ahead.

Start keeping an eye out,

probably five to ten minutes
before we see them.

10-4. You guys will be
the first to know.

This may be them right here
'cause this looks like...

would this be
Roosevelt right here?

No. So, Roosevelt Airport
is about right here.

Oh, then why are we not seeing
their ADSB take off?

I don't understand that.

THOMAS:
We're not getting them.

TRAVIS:
So, we need to make sure that
their, uh, ADSB is transponding.

Even though the Cessna
was approaching the ranch,

it never showed up
on the ADSB system.

All the other air traffic
in the area appeared on the map,

and I could see
with our antenna set up

that she was still broadcasting.

What could cause
Kendra's plane

not to show up
on the ADSB like that?

It makes no sense.

-Why are we not...
-We're not picking them up.

Here.

Hey, Erik, this is Travis,
do you copy?

We-we are not
seeing you on the ADSB.

I wonder if Kaleb's
gotten eyes on them.

Yeah, call Kaleb and ask him.

Go ahead.

Have you gotten eyes
on the plane yet?

10-4.

It's, uh, going over
the property now.

THOMAS:
What the heck
is going on up there?

So... why are we not
picking her up?

Hey, Erik, it's Bryant.

We are still not picking you up
on the flight tracker.

Do you have any other traffic
on the display right now?

-Tell him yes.
-Yes, we do.

We are seeing all sorts
of air traffic.

But she's broadcasting
on the ADSB.

I'm watching her.

This is her, right here
with both antennas.

She's broadcasting...

-Yeah, I can see that.
-TRAVIS: ...the signal.

THOMAS:
I mean, this is picking up

planes that are
a hundred miles away

-and 30,000 feet up.
-TRAVIS: That doesn't...

That doesn't make any sense.

I had antennas that were
tuned to that frequency,

and I could pick up the signal
coming from the airplane,

but for some reason

her system isn't working.

This is what's so weird
about the ranch.

One thing we do know is,

uh, her system does record
the ADSB data,

and even though
we will get a text file

that we can reinterpret after
the flight, but I wanted it now.

TRAVIS:
It wasn't ideal,

but we knew that Erik
was collecting GPS data

and Kendra was recording
the ADSB data.

We hoped that would be enough to
salvage some of this experiment.

So should I still
keep going over or...?

ERIK:
Oh, yeah.

Over the middle of the triangle.

-All right.
-THOMAS: Got it.

Wait, is that-- There they are.
Right there, look.

Thomas, in the middle.
Look in the middle.

-Look way up there.
-Okay, yup.

TRAVIS:
There they are, right there.

November 8-4-7-1-7,

could you tell us your
pressure altitude, please?

TRAVIS:
So, that's...

Going up to 4,000 feet
above ground level.

Gosh, she's moving fast.

Thomas, I got them
coming in eastbound

over the triangle again.

TRAVIS:
While Erik and Kendra
were continuing

their pattern sweep
above the triangle,

all we could do back
in the command center

was just hope that they were
getting data that we could use.

Hopefully, the GPS trackers
are the saving grace

for this experiment,
because we're not getting

-what we want out of this.
-Yeah,

I'm hoping I can
salvage something out of it.

THOMAS:
We have not had

a single experiment
out at the triangle,

up in the air,
that has gone per plan.

So, what is it
about the triangle

and us trying to do
experiments at the triangle

that seems to trigger,
you know, irregularities?

BRYANT:
It seems

like someone or something,
doesn't want us

to collect data
from the triangle.

That's what it seems like.

It's a pattern.

It's certainly
making it hard for us.

Copy that.

(static buzzing)

(static continues)

What happened?
What the heck is that?

What just suddenly
popped up on... What?

THOMAS:
That 1.6.

BRYANT:
It was there for a couple
seconds, now it's gone.

TRAVIS:
It sure as heck was.

(static buzzing)

What are you hearing?

(static buzzing)

All right, what's going on?

-We're not broadcasting
anything like that.
-TRAVIS: All right.

So, yeah, we're not
broadcasting anything like that.

Negative, Erik,
there's, uh, nothing within

40, 50 miles of the ranch.

(static buzzing)

Is it another airplane?

TRAVIS: We were all
totally mystified

when both Erik and Kendra,
the pilot, suddenly reported

that some kind of shadow was
tracking along with the Cessna.

BRYANT:
That's extremely strange.

TRAVIS:
We checked our ADSB system

and there was no
other plane in the area.

It immediately made me
think of last year

when Erik and I were

in the helicopter
with Cameron Fugal

over the triangle
and something showed up

on his radar
just 50 feet beneath us.

(alert buzzing)

There's something underneath us
according to the radar.

That we later identified
in camera footage

as some kind of shadowy UAP.

THOMAS:
Kaleb, do you have eyes

on a second aircraft?

I am scanning now.

TRAVIS:
Look at that.
The 1.6 is going crazy.

-(static buzzing)
-I don't know what that is.

TRAVIS:
In the middle of all
this chaos, once again

the spectrum analyzer suddenly
registered an RF radiation spike

at a frequency
of 1.6 gigahertz.

Now, that's the same
kind of energy spike

we've seen over and over when
UAPs have appeared in the past.

And it happened at the same time
Erik and Kendra were seeing

the shadow of some sort
of mysterious aircraft.

(static buzzing)

TRAVIS (echoes):
What is that?

(echoes):
What the heck?

What?

Why is that picking us up?

TRAVIS: Uh...
It's picking us all up.

Just after the 1.6
gigahertz RF spike

in the control room,
we suddenly heard our own voices

being broadcast
and echoing back at us.

Call them and tell them
to give me the signal.

(echoing): Stand by, stand by
for one moment, please.

TRAVIS: There's no way that
should have been possible.

It was like we were
being recorded

by someone or something
in real time.

(static buzzing)

(echoing):
Maybe it's in here.

TRAVIS (echoing): That is
telling us that one of us

is broadcasting at
1.623800 gigahertz.

That is really odd.

Erik and I have been having
a conversation lately

that we think that
there could be

an eavesdropping device here.

Maybe we've been detecting it
with the spectrum analyzers.

And it...

That might be it.

Really?

And so, somebody is
turning it on and off

which is why we're not
seeing it all the time.

Possibly.

The strange energy spike
along with the sound frequency

from the radio
and our voices being

broadcast and echoing
back at us could mean

that we are being
surveilled on the ranch.

But what I can't even
begin to explain,

especially given
that Erik and Kendra saw

what they believed to be a UAP,

is what the source of
that surveillance could be.

I'm gonna walk outside
and see if somehow it's on me

and then maybe
you guys take turns.

So, you go out and talk.

-TRAVIS: Right.
-We'll listen for you.

-Okay. Yep.
-And then we can send him out
there with you.

Hello, can you guys hear me?
Hello, testing, testing...

-Well, we can hear him.
-Yeah.

BRYANT:
This has me really concerned.

The fact that

there is something or someone
that could be listening to us

and actually broadcasting
our sound back to us again?

Why is this happening?

So, we could still
hear you outside.

Huh.

BRYANT:
Testing, testing, testing.

Are you guys picking me up
at all? Testing, testing.

THOMAS: The most
troubling thing for me

was hearing Travis, Bryant

and myself being broadcast
over this frequency.

What in the crap
does that mean?

THOMAS:
I've said before,

is there not any
safe place on the ranch?

I would say now, is there
any private place on the ranch?

TRAVIS:
The signal stopped.

-What have we played with?
-What just happened?

TRAVIS:
That was really odd.

So, we are descending now...

We were getting
this interference

on our, on our comms.

BRYANT:
Erik, I don't like that.

I would advise that you come
down, from a safety standpoint.

...head on back to
the airport from there.

Well, they're done. That's it.

They're headed
back to the airport.

Erik's still got the handheld

if we want to talk
to him on his way,

but they'll be at the airport
in five or ten minutes.

All right.

TRAVIS:
The main bit of data

that we're really
looking forward to

is the GPS data
that Erik and I put

in the plane,
it's collecting it real time

on the computer so we know
it's actually working.

And when he gets on
the ground and we crunch that,

we're gonna be able
to create a GPS anomaly map

over the entire ranch
from a thousand feet

to 6,000 feet
above ground level.

They'll be there
before I get there,

so I probably need to get going.

-Okay.
-Okay.

♪ ♪

-TOM: Well, hey, Jon.
-Hey, hello.

TOM:
After meeting

with Jon at McConkie,
it was obvious that he needed

to come to Skinwalker Ranch.

His interpretation

of the petroglyphs
and pictographs

that are up on the walls
at McConkie Ranch

could be really interesting
to Erik and Travis.

There's a lot of similarities
in what we saw there

and then there are some
things here that

I've never seen before
and we hope

you can give us some insight on.

Right, I'd love to see them.

Let's jump in the Ranger
and head down.

KANDUS: We've found
a strange notable location

on top of the mesa,

and we are hoping
to get his take

on what it is.

TOM:
So, it is just right

kind of at the top of this mesa,
so it's a little bit of a hike.

KANDUS:
It's important that we explore

what all these sites
could mean

in the bigger picture
of the ranch.

TOM:
Yeah, so, this spot is
some sort of mound.

JON:
Absolutely amazing.

TOM:
The fact that there's
all of these stones

around what seems to be
some sort of mound

in the very middle.

What do you think?

JON:
I get the sense that this is
something sacred here.

That it was purpose-built.

I was gonna make a suggestion.

-KANDUS: Mm-hmm.
-JON: Um...

In a lot of native
cultures, your...

you approach things
from a clockwise direction.

So, uh, what I'd like to do
is approach this and go around

in a clockwise manner

-and take a look at things.
-Okay.

It's just a sign of respect
on any type of sacred site

and we just want
to honor that here.

If you go counterclockwise,
it's kind of a negative thing.

-KANDUS: Let's do that.
-Yeah, why don't you
lead the way?

JON:
We got up to the top
of the mesa there

and to me it looked
almost like

a Stonehenge-type structure

with these rocks in a circular
pattern around there.

Traditional beliefs
with the Navajo are

something that is brought up
when you're a child.

You grow up

in that there is
a certain way to act,

there is a certain way
to do things

and so, you would start
and go clockwise around it

and come back to it to complete
the circle before you entered.

Um, that's just traditional--
most native tribes.

KANDUS:
So, I want to stop
and show you something

on this boulder.

Maybe you want to step over
and look at it here yourself

for just a minute,
but there were a few things...

...that seemed worth noting.

What do you think of those?

What I'm seeing here
is four distinct lines

that are carved into this rock

and, uh, typically,

they could be marking
periods of time.

We don't know what the time was.

-And then...
-And around the side there,
you'll see...

You see right
where you're standing.

-You see that little...
-Yeah.

We understand the erosion here,
but that hole...

-Right.
-KANDUS: Yeah, so...

That looks like
it could be natural?

Well, this one, uh, if you...
if you sight through it,

-it's right on the horizon.
-KANDUS: Mm-hmm.

JON:
When you're looking at it.

And during spring and fall,

when the sun rises,

it-it comes straight
through this hole.

TOM:
Yeah.

So, what do you
believe this is?

-This place?
-This is, uh,

is rather interesting.

Uh, when I see mounds like this,

it could be a holy place.

I'm thinking here's a place

where prayers were offered.

A sacred place.

I believe that
this area was used

as a talisman to keep
the evil on that side.

That's incredible.

Hmm.

JON:
I'm thinking there's

definitely something here.

And I-I just, I can...

-I can feel it
in my bones, you know?
-TOM: Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

JON: Well,
let's continue around

-and complete the circle.
-KANDUS: Okay.

JON:
Looking at this place
in its entirety, it struck me

as a holy place.

It could have been used as
some kind of protection ceremony

to keep whatever is historically
here on Skinwalker Ranch

from traveling over the mesa.

And we have basically
a spiral right here...

...that's been put
into this ground here.

TOM: And as we've seen
today at McConkie

and maybe here, that spiral

is indicative of...

A portal,
a dimensional rift, an opening.

JON:
The ancient people that
populated this land

knew of this place.

There's evil there, there is
something that can kill you,

whether it's skinwalkers
or some kind of malignant power.

So, it doesn't strike me

as unusual, this spiritual
idea, this warding off

of what could come that way.

TOM:
So, Jon,

you've enlightened us so much

and given us
so much more to work on,

and added greatly
to our investigation, so...

-Well, good, good. I'm glad.
-Yeah.

Thank you for having me
out here.

Thank you for coming and
spending this much time with us.

Yeah, let's head back down.

ERIK: We're going to
take a look at

the data that we got out of
the experiment with the Cessna.

I've got our own data.

We also have some data
from the pilot.

Oh, good.

TRAVIS: The day after
our Cessna experiment

over the triangle, Erik has
all the data sorted out.

So, we're eager to see
what he was able to collect,

given all the bizarre things
that happened during the flight.

I'm glad that you had
instruments on board

because we got
bubkes of data here.

Right.

Now, I know, during
the course of the experiment,

we could never
pick her up on the radar.

You're talking about
the ADSB receiver?

-Yeah.
-THOMAS: Yeah.

Yeah, we saw you leave Roosevelt
and go back to Roosevelt,

-but that's it.
-ERIK: Right after

all the frustrations
I know we had on the ground.

I mean, the stuff that I got
out of the actual data logging,

it's really perplexing.

Get this.

These little guys,
they receive signals

directly from the satellites.

They're GPS tracker units.

I had five of these things
on the flight.

The data from four of the five
was either absent or garbled.

And get this.

The one that worked,
it's flawless.

This is really suggestive

that there is something
locally going on here.

TRAVIS:
Well, let's see it.

Yeah, let me bring this up.

ERIK:
So, here we are at
the Roosevelt airstrip.

And we did, just as planned,

we did several altitudes
making those S-turns

and, uh, doing what we call
the push broom pattern.

TRAVIS:
So, you said that
her system data-logged...

-ERIK: Uh-huh.
-...uh, on board.
So, what did it show?

You're not going
to believe this.

So, this is what
one of our units got.

-And as I said,
it looks pristine.
-TRAVIS: It really does.

THOMAS:
I don't see anything in that,

that looks like anything
jumped out of...

BRYANT:
I mean, yeah.

Now, you guys are
not gonna believe this.

Let me show you what
I received from Kendra.

BRYANT: Uh...
is that under the ranch?

ERIK:
So, yeah. I need
to explain this.

TRAVIS:
Look at that.

-Uh-huh.
-That's interesting.

ERIK:
Just as you saw

with the yellow tracks
from our trackers,

uh, you see the flight out.

-Mm-hmm.
-Okay?

She's taking this path.

We execute one loop,
if you will, over the property

and then everything falls apart.

(scoffs)

Many of the altitude readings

that she reported were

far beneath the ground;
in fact, beneath sea level.

And not just beneath
sea level, but 62 and a half

miles below sea level.

-TRAVIS: 62 and a half miles?
-ERIK: Yes.

62 and a half miles is
the altitude above sea level

that is considered
the von Kármán line

where you go from
atmosphere to space.

THOMAS: And that's exactly
62 and a half?

And this is-is exactly
62 and a half miles.

So, why did this choose
62 and a half miles

under the ground?

What do you get
when you go there?

That is weird, though.

But this also is not
the first time we've had

-GPS telling instrumentation
that it's underground.
-ERIK: Below ground.

-I know. That's right.
-ERIK: That's the point.

ERIK: These blue cubes
appear to be

70 feet below
the surface of the mesa.

TRAVIS:
Two weeks ago,

when we flew up
into the mile-high zone

above the triangle
in Brandon's helicopter,

our GPS data indicated
that we flew into the mesa

and traveled through it
for several hundred feet.

It looks like
you smashed into the mesa.

What the heck?

TRAVIS: Now, this new GPS data
collected over the same zone

above the triangle indicates

that the Cessna went
into and below the mesa

the same distance that it is
from sea level to outer space.

What in the hell
could that possibly mean?

BRYANT:
Given this,

and especially the fact
that it seems like

we're being monitored out here,

with that strange

projecting of
our voices remotely,

it's definitely
a security issue and so,

I'm going to let Brandon
know what's going on

and I'm sure he's
going to be curious

to know what's going on
with the data as well.

You know, I'm trying to think
of other ways to look

at this anomaly other
than just GPS systems.

What if we got some telescopes

and we looked
through the anomaly,

and if it is some sort

of optical
or gravitational anomaly,

our atmosphere should change.

And it should change in a way
that it's not supposed to.

And then, we would measure,
"Hey, look, there's something,

an anomaly there,"
and that would be data.

Well, I'm going
to go call Brandon.

Yeah, I'll reach out
to the astronomy guys.

TRAVIS:
That's cool stuff, Erik.

ERIK:
Previous researchers
have commented

that theirs is the impression
that the ranch phenomenology

responds, if not anticipates,

the experiments
that they have attempted,

and we do see some
support for that

in our experience here
over the years.

Perhaps what we're seeing
with the ADSB

transponder data receiver is
an example of that interference.

TRAVIS:
There are so many GPS
anomalies that we're seeing.

There could be actually
some advanced physics

like you would see
in science fiction,

or like the stories
of portals opening up.

Now, if that's the case,
we could be on the edge

of some amazing discoveries.

BRANDON:
Even with continued events

occurring at the triangle,
we have setbacks.

It seems like something
continues to push back on us

and create obstacles.

I think that just makes the team
more determined than ever

to try to find out
what is behind

a lot of the strange activity

on Skinwalker Ranch.

We would like to look
through the anomaly

at an astronomical object

and see if they seem obscured.

THOMAS:
Erik, the cows have scattered
through the entire field.

Something's
definitely scared them.

TRAVIS:
What the hell
is that in the sky?

-CHUCK: That thing is
big and spherical.
-TRAVIS: Yes, it is.

-It's got a black dot
in the center of it.
-What?

There is something
I'd like to get your eyes on.

-TRAVIS: Whoa! What was that?
-ERIK: There, there.

TRAVIS: That's the brightest
thing in the sky.
