04x15 - Looking Back and Far Beyond

Post by bunniefuu »

TRAVIS: Today, the
UFO phenomenon

is a regular fixture of
mainstream media reports

and has gripped the
attention of the general public

more than ever.

In fact, it's now
common knowledge

that the federal government
has recently funded

secretive programs to
investigate the subject,

and whistleblowers are
starting to come forward,

declaring that our
intelligence agencies

know much more than
they are willing to reveal.

My name is Dr. Travis Taylor,

and I was not only
the chief scientist

on the federal
government's UAP task force

from 2019 to 2022,

but I'm also part of a
civilian investigation...

There's something right
over Thomas down there

in the sky, blinking at
about ten degrees up.

At a 512-acre property in Utah

that's been a UAP
hot spot for decades,

if not centuries.

There is something in
the mesa, right there.

A place known as
Skinwalker Ranch.

Tonight, we're looking back
on a number of shocking events

and discoveries we made there

just in the past year

that may finally help
reveal the truth behind

the UAP phenomenon.

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.

BRANDON: Let's
proceed. We've got a...

a big day ahead of us.

And an exciting time to kick off

this phase of the investigation.

TRAVIS: When Brandon Fugal,
the owner of Skinwalker Ranch,

and his principle
investigator Erik Bard

led the effort to reignite
our team's investigation

into all the bizarre
phenomena this year,

we all agreed that ground zero

should be a location
known as the triangle.

This spot near the
middle of the ranch

has been a major hotbed for
what we call "high strangeness."

MAN: We've got liftoff.

TRAVIS: Oh, my
God. During launch,

the electromagnetic
spectrum is going crazy, guys.

I've never seen
anything like it.

It's here that we've not only
detected GPS anomalies,

as well as a
mysterious radio signal

measured at a frequency of 1.6
gigahertz from the ground level

up to nearly a mile high,

it's also where we've seen

a number of UAPs...

- TRAVIS: Did you see that?
- BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

TRAVIS: some of which

vanished into thin air.

This thing's really
clipping along.

Oh, my gosh. It disappeared.

Here we go. Hang on, Pete.

So, for our first
experiment this year,

in the hopes of identifying

just what causes all
these phenomena,

Cameron Fugal flew me

and technologist Pete Kelsey

up above the triangle

so that Pete could scan
that anomalous zone

with a handheld lidar device.

I mean, we're at
the triangle right now,

- so if you want to, bring it up.
- PETE: All right, so...

give me about ten seconds
and we'll be scanning.

TRAVIS: Holy cow. There's
something right outside the aircraft.

- You're kidding.
- TRAVIS: No, I am not kidding.

You were at 300 feet and were
detecting an object in the air.

PETE: What? You've
got to be kidding me.

But right as we reached
an altitude of 300 feet,

the infrared lasers
of the lidar scanner

began tracing something
that was totally invisible

to the naked eye.

About 300 feet

above ground level,

you can see the
green is the ground

and the red is the thing.

- PETE: This is unbelievable.
- Unbelievable.

They're climbing.

TRAVIS: We were stunned
when the lidar scanner

detected something
strange just 300 feet in the air.

So we were really anxious
to see what we would find

up in the mile-high zone.

- Holy cow.
- PETE: What, what, what?

Look at that.

- See it?
- Yes.

TRAVIS: We've got an
anomaly, a clear anomaly

right beside us.

BRYANT: We've had eyes on it

with three sets of binoculars,

and we've seen nothing.

Tell them to launch.

TRAVIS: In order to
see if we could stimulate

these anomalies to appear,

we launched a rocket.

Three, two, one!

There it goes.

TRAVIS: What?

TRAVIS: Yeah.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

PETE: There you go.

TRAVIS: I got you,
I got you, I got you.

TRAVIS: We're not sure
if the rocket stimulated it,

but right after the launch,

the helicopter was
suddenly hit by what felt like

high winds, even though
the helicopter's gauges

showed that any natural
gusts would be coming from

a totally different direction.

I think it's time to abort.

TRAVIS: After
what we felt up there

and saw on the lidar,

we wanted to get
another set of data

to confirm the findings.

Here we go.

TRAVIS: So,
high-speed camera expert

Burdette Anderson joined
us for a new rocket experiment

at the triangle, snapping
1,000 frames per second

in the hopes of
giving us a glimpse

of anything strange up there.

TRAVIS (over radio): Great,
we got the next one on the pad...

Five, four,

three, two, one.

KALEB: That is cool.

TRAVIS: Oh, that was awesome.

Well, that went up pretty high.

KALEB: Hey, we got a light
that's right there that's moving.

TRAVIS: Yeah, we got
it! There it is, right there!

Now, this one's
moving pretty fast.

What is that?

KALEB: That's not a plane.

TRAVIS: After
launching two rockets

up through the triangle, a UAP
suddenly appeared in the sky.

Does it look like it
just sped up to y'all?

THOMAS: That's no satellite.

TRAVIS: Did it
just... It just vanished.

But then, it simply disappeared.

No way.

Well, I don't see it anymore.

THOMAS: I think we
got to get that rocket up

- and see if we can make it...
- TRAVIS: Yep, I hear you.

THOMAS: Replicate it.

TRAVIS: Thomas was right.

If the UAP came
from the triangle,

we needed to
launch another rocket

in order to see if we could
get another one to appear

that we could
hopefully identify.

Going in five,

four, three,

two, one.

Oh, we got a malfunction.
Everybody watch out.

At first, we all
thought the rocket

simply blew up at
about 31 feet high.

THOMAS: Oh.

- KALEB: Hey, Travis.
- TRAVIS: Yeah?

We caught the malfunction

- on-on the high-speed.
- Oh, really?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Hey, check this out. There's
something on the camera.

BURDETTE: It's
something I've never

seen before. Check this out.

So, as it's going,
look what you've got...

TRAVIS: There's something in
the sky above the rocket, right here.

KALEB: Yeah, look
at that, look at the light.

TRAVIS: It was unbelievable.

Right where the rocket exploded,

the high-speed camera
captured an image

of a blob-like feature.

After all our experiments
there, we may have finally

gotten an image of what causes

some of the phenomena
above the triangle.

We may be looking at

the anomaly for
the first time, guys.

- KALEB: Right?
- BURDETTE: That's crazy.

My gosh! (laughs)

(helicopter approaching)

Helicopter, helicopter.

Erik, we got a helicopter
right over the ranch right now.

Are you getting it?

I am getting no
helicopter above the ranch

on the ADS-B receiver here.

TRAVIS: We have a
helicopter right over the triangle.

KALEB: Hey, it just went dark.

And it just vanished,

but we still hear it.

We've wondered before
if our investigations

were being surveilled
by someone.

But when a Black
Hawk military helicopter

that was not
transponding a signal

suddenly flew over the ranch
right after the blob appeared

just 31 feet above the triangle,

we were pretty certain.

There's not a
military base nearby.

-No. -I mean right nearby

that has helicopters.

- We're talking minutes.
- Yeah.

Who alerted them that fast?

And where was that helicopter?

Where did it come from?

How did it get here so quick?

It's well known that
the federal government

funded investigations
of Skinwalker Ranch

from the mid-'90s
to the early 2000s.

Well, this just made us
wonder if it's happening again,

and do they know
something about the triangle

that we don't? It just
made us more curious

to keep poking that
hot spot for answers.

But the next experiment
we conducted there,

pointed us in a
whole new direction.

TRAVIS: There is
literally something...

We may be looking at the
anomaly for the first time, guys.

Earlier this year,

after we documented images
of the blob-like anomaly

just 31 feet above the triangle,

we were eager to conduct

high-tech experiment

to find out just
what it could be.

I hope you brought some
good stuff for us to use.

I sure did.

I brought a triple spectrum

- lightwave transmitter.
- Oh, yeah.

To help us, UAP
investigator David Mason

brought out a device
called a triple spectrum

lightwave transmitter.

It projects infrared
and ultraviolet lasers

which are invisible
to the naked eye.

DAVE: All right, that'll work.

And it also projects
a laser that is visible.

The plan was to
use that to broadcast

the 1.6 gigahertz signal

that we've previously
recorded on the ranch

through all three lasers

while they were aimed
straight at the triangle.

We hoped it would be
an effective stimulant

to get the blob-like
anomaly to reappear.

Doing some rocket surgery.

Meanwhile, Kaleb Bench and I

got set up to launch rockets

as well as mortars,

which are like
high-powered fireworks,

right up through the triangle
to see if that would also

help stir up phenomena and
finally give us some answers.

ERIK: This is the first time

that David Mason has
been on the property,

and as far as I know,
this is the first time

that any equipment of the
kind that he has brought out

has ever been
used on the property,

and I'm really anxious to
see what's going to happen.

DAVID: Okay, these are working.

Just making sure that
we're getting a signal.

THOMAS: So, everything
looks quiet right now.

All right, well, we're
going to launch this rocket.

Copy that. We'll get ready
with David's instruments.

TRAVIS: Five, four,

three, two, one.

There we go.

Whoa, what was that
purple light over there?

Did anybody else see a
purple light over there?

The rocket launched up
through the triangle as planned,

but we were all baffled

when Thomas saw
a flashing purple light

hundreds of yards
away in the south field.

Dave, I'm going to head down

and try to come
around the back side.

We need to know whether
we've got people down there

or if this is an actual
reaction to that rocket.

Uh, I'm taking the UTV.

I'm gonna roll down
through the dark forest

and try to come up
from the other direction.

I see that purple flash again,

and I'm wondering if we got

trespassers down
there or something else.

Is this a response
to our experiments?

Thomas, where are you?

THOMAS: So, we've just
rendezvoused with Tom and Kandus here,

and neither one of
us has seen anything

that would account
for that purple light.

TRAVIS: Once he got there,

the purple light
had disappeared.

Hey, Thomas, Erik,
with our night vision

there's something right over
Tom and Kandus down there

in the sky blinking at
about ten degrees up.

But then, Kaleb and
I saw another UAP

higher in the sky above Thomas

that seemed to be
tracking his movements.

It is clearly something there.

THOMAS: Let's see what we
can do with this tree right here.

ERIK: After our experience
with this mysterious purple light

in the southeast
region of the property,

we've decided that
we need to increase

our surveillance
efforts down there.

I've instructed
our team to install

additional cameras.

THOMAS: Whoa, what
is that in front of us?

What kind of animal is that?

KALEB: Looks like a deer.

TRAVIS: Our team would
end up finding the remains

of two dead deer
in the south field.

And when a local
veterinarian examined them,

she believed they had been
k*lled by a large predator,

but nothing like a coyote,

which are known
to inhabit the area.

Huh, look at this.

We got a burn mark.

TRAVIS: And it was even stranger
when Thomas noticed a fence post

with a mysterious,
circular burn,

as if something had
blown right through it.

- KALEBB: Just that one section.
- THOMAS: There's nothing burned around here.

What the heck would
have burned this post?

Pretty fresh looking.

KALEB: I just wanted
to stop right here, Don,

to really give you an
idea of where we're at.

TRAVIS: To help us figure
out what could have burned

and damaged the post
in such a strange way,

Don Mitchell, a local Uinta
Basin Fire Management Officer

and member of the
Eastern Shoshoni nation

came to check it out.

Our initial thought
is lightning.

But I'd assume, if we
had a lightning strike here,

we'd see, definitely, more
damage on the ground.

DON: We would
definitely see debris.

As you can see, in the
smoldering phase of this,

that there's no blackening

that comes up around
the post in any direction.

BRYANT: So, if I'm
understanding correctly,

based off of what you're saying,

it seems as though it was
something extremely hot

that scorched it, but it never
really incinerated, correct?

Correct.

But I can tell you,
this is not arson,

this is not chemical

and this, in my
opinion, is not lightning.

BRYANT: So, what is it then?

I'll only touch on
it just-just briefly

because this is
definitely strange.

Speaking culturally,

it would go back to

what the ranch is named after.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I'm sorry, I don't
feel comfortable...

- KALEB: You're fine.
- Speaking on that, on that portion.

I don't want to breach anything

- that would make you uncomfortable.
- But we will continue on.

TRAVIS: Most
Indigenous tribal members

won't even come on the ranch

due to their beliefs
that it's cursed

and possibly home to
otherworldly phenomena.

So, we respected
Don's reluctance

to offer any more speculation

about what burned the
post or k*lled the deer.

- Hey, Bryant.
- Hey, man.

I got those cards
from those cameras.

Yup, okay, cool.
Let's check it out.

TRAVIS: But then one
day later, Kaleb and Dragon

were stunned by what
they saw in some footage

that was recorded
by the new cameras.

BRYANT: I'm surprised
we haven't seen

any game of any kind yet.

That's what I'm wondering.

- What's setting off the cameras?
- Right.

BRYANT: Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

-Back that up,
-Did you see that?

Yeah, back that up.
What-what was that?

KALEB: I'm just
running through it

frame by frame.

What?

KALEB: Like a silver
orb or something.

BRYANT: At first
glance, it appeared to be

a silver orb-type shaped object

off in the distance.

I don't know whether
it's exotic or not,

but it's still a concern.

KALEB: We just found something

that we thought you
guys might want to look at.

- TRAVIS: Really?
- KALEB: Yeah.

Okay. All right, here we go.

- TRAVIS: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- BRYANT: Right... Go back. Right there.

Right there.

TRAVIS: Holy cow.

ERIK: Well, the fact

that the shape of the
dark spot is different,

and it seems to have
expanded relative to the rest of it,

is kind of consistent
with reflections

because it's in
a different place.

Which suggests that
it's metallic or at least

- reflective of some sort.
- ERIK: Mm-hmm.

It does suggest that.

TRAVIS: This silver orb

left us baffled by
what it could be.

What was this thing?

Could it have been
connected to the dead deer,

the burnt post or the UAPs
we saw in the south field?

And where did it come from?

Well, what we
would soon discover

at another location on the ranch

just might answer
those questions.

Middle of the day,

an orb like that showing up?

That's crazy.

TRAVIS: First,
go to the east field,

- okay?
- CAMERON: All right.

BRANDON: Now, we're tracking.

Hopefully, we'll be able to
capture something interesting.

Yeah. Every time
Pete's been out there,

something interesting
has happened.

Well, this'll be good.

I'm gonna increase altitude.

TRAVIS: During our first
helicopter experiment this year,

where we detected strange
lidar anomalies at 300 feet

and nearly a mile
above the triangle,

we also had Pete
Kelsey scan the east field

of Skinwalker Ranch.

It was here where a
photogrammetry experiment

that Pete helped
us conduct in 2021

captured 3D images

of a mysterious
column-shaped anomaly

that, believe it or not,

was also 300 feet tall.

And it's near a megalithic
spiral-shaped boulder formation

up on the mesa that was
created hundreds of years ago

by Indigenous tribal members

for the reported purpose

of representing an
interdimensional portal

on Skinwalker Ranch.

All right, the east field.

We should be about over it

- right in here.
- CAMERON: Okay.

- All right, I'm going to start scanning.
- TRAVIS: Yeah.

- PETE: All right?
- Okay.

We're getting buffeted
from the wind a little bit.

But there's no freaking wind.

Whoa, whoa.

We're getting our asses kicked.

TRAVIS: It was crazy.

It looks like it's
being pushed around

from the ground right now.

TRAVIS: At an
altitude of 300 feet,

right where we detected the
column-shaped anomaly last year,

something invisible started
pushing the helicopter around.

- TRAVIS: Yeah.
- CAMERON: Feel that, that's just crazy.

(groans)

Oh, wow. We're
getting something.

PETE: What?

TRAVIS: We are
getting an anomaly

in the air, right
now, right there.

- You're kidding.
- No, I am not kidding.

Just like at the triangle,

the lidar detected something
in the air 300 feet high.

And what's really incredible
is that it lined up perfectly

with the top of the
column-shaped anomaly

we documented one year ago.

So, what in the heck was it?

And could it possibly
have been related

to the spiral of boulders
on the nearby mesa?

Now, at this point,
we feel it's important

to acknowledge something.

Like with any
scientific investigation,

sometimes the
initial observation

of collected data in the field

seems a lot more exciting

than it proves to be
after further analysis.

Watch this.

There's something
screaming across there

right after the rocket.

TRAVIS: During a
high-speed camera experiment

this year in the east field,

we captured images of what

we first believed was
a very fast moving

unidentified aerial phenomenon.

- Look at this thing.
- TRAVIS: That field of view across there

is across the whole mesa,
so that's about a half a mile,

and it's at 2,000
frames a second,

so he just went
a half a mile in...

1.12 seconds I believe.

So it literally went from
about halfway here in the mesa

to above these trees
over here in a second.

TRAVIS: However, when
the cameras stop rolling

on Skinwalker Ranch,
the research continues.

And after further
study of the images

that the high-speed camera
captured, we have determined

that it was simply a winged
creature of some kind,

most likely a bird.

We don't believe
it was an insect

because it would have
been too close to the lens.

This just reinforces
the principle

that all the data requires
careful follow-up analysis.

Using the scientific
method, we will always

continue researching the data

and then reporting
our conclusions.

Because the truth
is that in most cases,

we still have been
unable to explain

a lot of what we have
seen and encountered

here on Skinwalker Ranch.

Just like during
another experiment

that was conducted
right in the east field.

JIM: Thanks so
much for coming in.

I'm anxious for
you to share with us

a little bit about Blazing Bear.

JOHN: Yeah,
thanks for having us.

So, like, these guys are all

Comanches and
Kiowas and Cheyennes,

Shawnees, Navajos, we
all represent different tribes.

These guys are very traditional.

They have old songs
that have been sung

for hundreds of years,

so we want to see
what's gonna happen.

TRAVIS: So, let's get moving.

Jim Morse and Navajo
Ranger Jon Dover

brought an Indigenous
drum circle group

named Blazing
Bear out to the ranch.

According to Jon, the
Indigenous cultures

in the area believe
very strongly

that certain sound frequencies

can actually open
portals, or wormholes,

to other dimensions,
or places in the universe.

And they even claim to
have witnessed UFOs fly into

and out of rocky mesas.

(singing indistinctly)

TRAVIS: Our plan was
to have David Mason

film Blazing Bear with
his thermal cameras

as they performed
a sacred ritual

in front of the mesa,
below the spiral of boulders.

We wanted to see if we could

capture anything strange

that we might not be
able to naturally observe.

(singing continues)

- Right there.
- Yup.

TRAVIS: Well, when
they started singing

the temperature
literally changed.

Look at the top of the mesa.

Erik, the stone circle

is where it's heating
up on top of the mesa.

Are you kidding me?

TRAVIS: You should see
this. This is fascinating.

Right there, that's
where the stone circle is.

And it's heating up.
Look how hot it's getting.

Of all the experiments
we've conducted

over the past four
years, Blazing Bear

seemed to have
conjured some of the most

perplexing phenomena we've
ever seen on Skinwalker Ranch.

There was a
distinct heat anomaly

that appeared right
over the spiral of boulders

on top of the mesa.

(singing continues)

BRYANT: Now, look
at it. It's cooling off.

DAVID: Yeah.

TRAVIS: And it only appeared

during their song ritual.

ERIK: Now, we're about to see

another event that
I found interesting.

TRAVIS: The following day,

Erik surprised us even
more with the incredible data

he found while scouring through

all the thermal footage.

Now, look at what's
happening here.

So, we've got the ridge
line, fairly well-defined,

and now look at this.

- Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- KALEB: There it is.

Go back, go back, go back.

TRAVIS: What is that?

KALEB: That, that's crazy.

TRAVIS: In addition
to the hot spot

that appeared
during the song ritual,

the thermal camera captured

two bright UAPs

flying directly into the mesa

right near the
spiral of boulders.

It doesn't go in
front of the mesa.

KALEB: You can clearly
see the line of the mesa,

and it's like there's something
going behind it there.

TRAVIS: Could we
have really documented

something that offers evidence

to support the ancient
Indigenous traditions

about portals and UAPs
flying in and out of mesas?

Well, what we later
discovered this year

while investigating a
different area of the mesa

might have revealed something

that no one could
have ever expected.

AARON: You guys
cleared out a spot.

BRYANT: Yeah.

THOMAS: Made it out, huh?

AARON: Yeah, we made it.

One of the most perplexing
locations on Skinwalker Ranch

is a particular region
of the rocky mesa

that borders the north
side of the property.

In fact, there are
even crazy rumors

from past investigators

who worked with the
federal government

about a secret base

or even some kind
of E.T. spacecraft

being buried inside there.

Erik's also captured
surveillance footage

of this area being
totally illuminated

during the middle of the night.

It sounds unbelievable,

but in 2021, we
drilled into it...

BRYANT: Boy, that thing
sounds like its hitting something.

TRAVIS: and scraped along
the bottom of a 400-foot-long,

.

THOMAS: What is that?

ERIK: What did you think
it was when you first saw it?

THOMAS: I wondered if it was
like metal flakes or something.

That's exactly the
same impression I got.

TRAVIS: However, we did extract

metallic fragments that,
when scientifically analyzed,

proved to be composed

of the same kinds of
materials that NASA uses

to protect the surface
of the space shuttle

during re-entry
into the atmosphere.

- Let's get drilling.
- All right.

So this year,

after removing some boulders
from the base of the mesa...

AARON: It's going now.

TRAVIS: the team
from Straight Shot Drillers

came back out. But this time,

we had them aim for the top

of the believed
dome-shaped object.

Meanwhile, Dragon
and Kaleb Bench

hiked up the mesa...

Okay. Hey, we can try it.

We got it here.

Let me get this sucker up again.

TRAVIS: and fed a snake
camera down through the boulders

to look for any of

the other anomalies
that could be in there.

BRYANT: Whoa.
Look at that pink stuff.

What in the hell is that?

- You see that right there?
- KALEB: Oh, yeah. Right there.

BRYANT: That
doesn't look natural

or like it should be
there. Look at that.

We weren't sure what to
make of the pink substance,

so we had the video sent
to the University of Utah

for expert analysis.

ERIK: So, he's hitting
resistance right now.

THOMAS: You can hear that.

- Drill's hitting something hard.
- Oh, yeah.

What's going on, Thomas?

After drilling more
than 270 or 280 feet

of going through
sandstone like butter,

the drill has
encountered a hard object

- that it cannot penetrate.
- Wow.

Just like last year,

the drill couldn't penetrate

the top of the
dome-shaped object either.

See? And we're at
8,000 pounds of push.

- Yeah.
- Hardly any rotation off of it,

so either my bit's broke off

or it's just spinning
on something smooth.

TRAVIS: Aaron Blunt finally

had to call it quits and
retracted his drill bit.

We all expected it to
be severely damaged.

Getting this cleaned off.

These teeth are
all perfectly intact.

- It's not missing a single tooth.
- Yeah.

THOMAS: I mean, it...

it looks like it's in
perfect condition.

What in the heck
could be covering

the surface of this anomaly?

It was like some
kind of force field

out of a science fiction movie.

Now, this is what
you guys imaged.

So, that's the pink
rock inside the mesa.

- BRYANT: Yup.
- ERIK: The geology...

geophysics guys are giving us

their best guess based
upon these images.

They have a couple
of opinions on this.

TRAVIS: When we got the report
back from the University of Utah

about the pink
substance in the mesa,

it was speculated that it
could contain zinc selenide.

That's a compound

that the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency,

or DARPA,

is currently experimenting with

for possible
cloaking applications

on a number of assets
for the United States

Department of Defense,

including soldiers' gear,
tanks and even fighter jets.

What could that mean about
what's buried inside the mesa?

ERIK: Well, Jeremiah,

it's been a long
time in the making.

Yeah. Great to finally
be here in person.

Okay, I think we're
good. Go for launch.

TRAVIS: In order to get
to the bottom of the mesa

and the triangle,

Erik invited tech
expert Jeremiah Pate

and his team from Lunasonde

to perform an aerial
balloon radar scan...

Fantastic.

TRAVIS: that would not only

look all through
the anomalous zone

of the triangle, but image
the inside of the mesa.

Greetings, Jeremiah.
Thank you for joining.

Yeah, thank you, Brandon.
And hello, everyone.

TRAVIS: It took
Jeremiah several weeks

to process the
data from the mesa,

so we couldn't
wait to hear what he

and his team had to reveal.

You've got a room full of people

who are on the
edge of their seats,

waiting to see what
you've discovered.

JEREMIAH: Absolutely.

So here is a 2D rendering

seen from above what
we saw underground.

It definitely seems like
a tunnel type of structure.

It's actually stretching
into the mesa itself.

Wow.

JEREMIAH: This really

got our attention.

- Yeah.
- It's very, very, uh, interesting.

So, these structures right here,

some of these are in
the order of 60 feet wide.

- ERIK: 60...
- BRYANT: What?

- BRYANT: As big as this room.
- BRANDON: Jeremiah, what do you

conclude from this, if
you were to speculate

based on your expertise,

what are we looking at here?

The conclusion this
has all lead me to

is some sort of tunnel

with a high metallic content.

TRAVIS: So, we've
encountered what we believe

is a 400-foot-long
dome-shaped metallic object

inside the mesa
that might be related

to spacecraft materials.

And now we've detected
possible massive metallic tunnels.

Could the crazy legends about
Skinwalker Ranch really be true?

Well, when we conducted

more complex
experiments at the triangle,

we were blown away
by the possible answer.

BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

What have we stumbled on?

Yeah.

SAM: All right, we're green.

JIM: Yeah, we'll
just be ready to go.

TRAVIS: In order to help
us get to the bottom of all

the phenomena that keeps
happening at the triangle,

we invited Jim Royston

and his amazing colleagues
from a company called OmniTeq

to help us conduct a
new high-tech experiment.

SAM: Space
station, start tracking.

All right.

Oh, there it is.

Tracking the space station now.

- It's got it locked on?
- SAM: Yep.

TRAVIS: Our plan was to
use high-powered antennas

to lock onto a radio signal

from the International
Space Station

and track it through
the anomalous zone

as the space station
passed over the ranch.

Meanwhile, Jim would
be flying a cutting-edge

drone-based lidar
device to scan through

the anomalous zone
above the triangle

with infrared lasers.

So, if anything
broke our connection

with the space station's signal,

we hope that the lidar

would be able to see it
and confirm what it was.

Uh...

- TRAVIS: Are you getting it?
- No, it's not showing up right now.

TRAVIS: But just after
we made the connection

to the space station,
something strange cut it off.

Well, that's odd, isn't it?

Travis, we've got
something strong.

TRAVIS: You have something?

What frequency?

So, well, it's at 1.6510.

TRAVIS: And then we
detected the 1.6 gigahertz signal.

SAM: It's like a beacon.

TRAVIS: If there is

something going
on right there now

'cause we're
having this problem,

I want to launch
a rocket through it.

BRYANT: Let's do it.

You hot over there?

Yep, we're hot there.

TRAVIS: Everybody in
position for rocket launches?

Okay.

TRAVIS: There, that's
a beautiful launch.

JIM: We caught it.

That was amazing.

It dispersed all the points

out really wide.

TRAVIS: Meaning that the lidar
points around it moved out of the way?

JIM: Yeah.

What?

Jim Royston's lidar
captured images of the rocket

clearly passing through some
kind of invisible mass right at

about 31 feet high,

the same level we saw the blob.

But what was it?

I had some time
to start processing

and looking at it.

This is what we saw.
So, I'll plug this in

- so you guys can see it.
- Want me to turn the TV on?

- Yeah.
- There we go.

- ERIK: Oh. Oh...
- JIM: So...

- TRAVIS: That's the... What's that spot?
- ERIK: What are we looking at?

TRAVIS: The processed data

showed a black void

in the center of the triangle.

Can you zoom way out?

JIM: Whoa.

Look at that.

- That's interesting.
- Yeah.

It's-it's a shadow of something.

What-what are we looking at?

THOMAS: A black hole? (chuckles)

TRAVIS: It could be... Well,

that could be a
shadow of a wormhole.

Could we have possibly captured
a lidar image of a wormhole?

If we did,

we needed to find
some way to confirm it.

THOMAS: Five, four, three,

two, one.

- Ooh!
- TRAVIS: Oh, that was so cool!

THOMAS: They almost hit.

TRAVIS: One week later,

while we launched
rockets vertically

and horizontally through the
anomalous zone of the triangle,

Brandon, Kaleb and
Erik flew in the helicopter

with Cameron so Erik
could scan the triangle

with a spectrum analyzer
for any tell-tale evidence.

Wait, Thomas, look.
Right-right there. Right there.

Right-right above the horizon.

Although we did capture
a large UAP in the sky...

I have some video footage

taken from the vantage
point of the helicopter

that we all need to get eyes on,

and you'll see why.

TRAVIS: we were really
shocked by what Erik found

in the footage collected
by a camera that was

mounted on Brandon's helicopter.

- Are you seeing it, Thomas?
- Whoa.

- Okay, look, look, look.
- TRAVIS: Look at that.

ERIK: Look right there.
This is the feature of interest.

Right. I'm seeing it.

TRAVIS: Oh.

BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

TRAVIS: It went behind the mesa.

BRYANT: Where'd it go?

Did it go right behind the mesa?

Yes. And on closer inspection,

it appears as if there's
a corresponding light

and illuminated area
on the mesa itself.

Watch what happens
as we play through.

- Oh, right there.
- BRANDON: Oh, my gosh.

- Oh, my gosh.
- There it goes.

Oh, my gosh.

TRAVIS: We all saw it.

A UAP clearly entered the
top of the mesa in the east field,

and then re-emerged
from the front of the mesa

right at the triangle.

Did we really see
what Indigenous people

have claimed for generations?

A UAP traversing through
an actual wormhole?

Well, it led us to conduct

our most complex experiment
yet in order to prove it,

and the results went
beyond what we expected.

ERIK: Travis, I'm
set up over here,

so how are you doing over there?

TRAVIS: Uh,
everything's set up here.

Allen, you guys good?
Dave, you guys good?

Yeah, we're armed and ready.

TRAVIS: After all the unique
experiments we conducted

this year at the triangle,

each of which produced
bizarre and varied phenomena,

before we suspended our
investigation for the winter,

we decided to combine
a bunch of technologies

and poke this hot spot
harder than ever before

to get answers related
to the energy spikes,

the UAPs and try to
answer whether or not

wormholes really exist
on Skinwalker Ranch.

Tim, I say we go ahead
and bring the lasers up.

- TIM: Lasers up.
- TRAVIS: Lasers are up.

The experiment
included an array of lasers

that scanned the anomalous zone

while broadcasting an audio file

of the Blazing Bear song ritual.

Everything's ready.

Drones are armed.

A swarm of 250
illuminated drones

programmed to, once
again, fly in formation

up to the 300-foot level...

- One here?
- Yeah, just, uh, ground it here.

TRAVIS: as well as
several rounds of rockets

equipped with increasing power

so that we could reach
higher and higher altitudes

within the anomalous zone
throughout the operation.

And, of course,

we were also filming
this mega-experiment

with thermal cameras.

Okay, I've got
eyes on the flare.

All right, we are going
hot with the rockets.

ALLEN: We got all six hot.

TRAVIS: Here we go in five,

four, three, two, one.

Where are the others?

What's going on?

THOMAS: Well, that was weird.

TRAVIS: As soon as
the experiment started,

things got strange.

When we triggered the rockets,

which were initially set
to launch simultaneously,

they mysteriously
took off one at a time

and appeared to be
deflected off course

right at the 31-foot blob level.

TRAVIS: Anything in the FLIR?

ERIK: Oh, wow.

Uh, yeah.

TRAVIS: You did see
something in the FLIR?

Yep, moving up here
from the center up towards

- the upper left-hand corner of the screen.
- Oh, what is that?

Then Erik saw a UAP in the sky

that appeared on the
FLIR thermal camera.

All right, drones are
going, drones are going.

Oh, fantastic.

TRAVIS: Here we go.

Three, two, one.

TRAVIS: Wow, look at that.

They're going up
in, uh, two layers.

ERIK: That's just spectacular.

We got one that's
hung out over here.

ERIK: Look at that.

What's that one doing?

I don't know.

Preston, I got one coming down.

TRAVIS: And when
the drones ascended

up to the 300-foot
level, first one,

and then several others
fell out of formation...

Now a third one's falling out.

A fourth one.

As if something was
pushing them around.

It was just like what happened

during the first drone
experiment earlier in the year,

and when Brandon's helicopter
got jostled around in midair.

- ALLEN: We are clear, clear, clear.
- TRAVIS: Ready?

All right, there's gonna be
a staggered launch in five,

four, three, two,

one.

- Get it.
- Wow.

Those crisscrossed
right through the middle,

that one went way north...

KALEB: Hey, do we
have an airplane up north?

I'm looking, I don't see it.

Because I got something
in the FLIR right here.

- What? Something in the FLIR?
- Right here.

Yup, there is
something in the FLIR.

KALEB: The moment we
launched, it popped up right in here.

TRAVIS: We have
an object in the FLIR.

It's, uh,

a hot object in the sky,

probably a hundred
feet over the mesa.

The strange events continued
throughout the night...

KALEB: Hey, we got
something on the FLIR.

- We got something on the FLIR.
- What do you got?

TRAVIS: including one UAP

that seemed to morph
into several smaller ones.

KALEB: When one of the
rockets went right there,

it went from a line
into many bright lights.

ERIK: Wow.

I could be convinced that we're

looking at something
formation flying.

TRAVIS: Seriously?

During this experiment,

we also documented

repeated phenomena
at the 31-foot level,

as well as the 300-foot level,

and we saw numerous UAPs.

Whoa-whoa-whoa.
Look. What we got here?

Over here.

Once again, we got repeated data

at multiple points
above the triangle.

And they all point to something
extraordinary going on there.

ERIK: We're seeing things that
are very hard for us to explain

over the ranch, and I
can't help but wonder

whether we are, in fact,

dealing with something
technological.

We have to continue searching.

BRANDON: We are
dealing with forces

that are powerful and yet to
be explained or understood.

The deeper down the
rabbit hole that we travel,

the more complex
that it appears.

TRAVIS: With everything
our team experienced this year,

I'd like to think we're close
to the ultimate answers

behind all
the phenomena out here.

But given all the questions
that clearly still exist,

I think it's more likely
that we are just getting started

uncovering the true secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.
