00:00UFOs, unidentified flying objects, have occupied human thought throughout recorded history.
00:10From Roswell and beyond, humans have struggled with the burning question,
00:17are flying saucers real or merely a fantasy?
00:23To answer this question, we'll consult the researchers
00:27and examine their evidence.
00:30We will meet the Unarians,
00:33who are more than prepared for future visits from aliens.
00:39To the casual observer, the phenomenon of UFOs is confusing at best.
00:45It is difficult to sort out facts from fiction.
00:48There are, however, some researchers who work diligently
00:52trying to present hard scientific evidence of UFOs while exposing the scams.
01:00Don Ecker, Research Director for UFO Magazine, is one of these researchers.
01:06The fringe elements in this field have always garnered all the media attention
01:11and it makes it that much more difficult for legitimate researchers
01:15to get their position out to the public.
01:18Don Ecker believes that one of the biggest problems
01:21is that the media exploits the more sensational stories,
01:25such as the alleged alien autopsy.
01:29Ecker feels that many of these stories may have been fabricated.
01:36Although the evidence found in many UFO stories does not hold up under scrutiny,
01:42Ecker has discovered a few cases that cannot be explained,
01:46defined as a hoax, natural phenomenon, or optical illusion.
01:52In fact, some of the most compelling evidence comes from our own government.
01:59In March of 1989, a Maryland ham radio operator
02:04intercepted a very strange transmission from the space shuttle.
02:10It was the voice of a Discovery pilot transmitting on a secret government channel.
02:25This was not the first, nor would it be the last, of NASA's alien encounters.
02:32One of the stories that we were fortunate enough to break
02:36involved a shuttle mission that took place in September of 1991.
02:41The mission was STS-48 and it involved the space shuttle Discovery.
02:46While the shuttle was flying at approximately 200 miles above the surface of the Earth,
02:52a series of events happened that were unlike anything ever seen from outer space before.
02:58The shuttle's camera captured an object traveling up the screen,
03:03suddenly making a sharp right turn,
03:06just before a second object flies through its original flight path.
03:11But what kind of craft could maneuver so quickly?
03:16My speculation is that it was some type of a Star Wars device
03:22that I believe may have been fired at this object.
03:26For what reason, I have no idea.
03:28But you'll see, just as the object makes the right angle turn,
03:32something flashes up on the screen to the point where this UFO would have been.
03:38Now, there is nothing that we know of right now currently with our technological level
03:45that would allow an object like that under human control to be operating in space.
03:51So if it's not something of ours, unless it's a deep black government project,
03:57then we have to ask ourselves, what is this UFO?
04:02I would suggest that there is something there with an extremely high degree of strangeness.
04:07When UFO Magazine broke the STS-48 story,
04:11a NASA official publicly claimed on CNN
04:15that the anomaly was most likely shuttle bay debris or waste water dumped into space.
04:23Official statements have often added to the confusion.
04:27In certain quarters of power in Washington, D.C., there were genuine fears
04:32that these incursions might lead to something else,
04:35perhaps as crazy sounding as it may be, perhaps even an invasion.
04:46We've been able to explain them as hoaxes,
04:49as erroneously identified friendly aircraft,
04:52as meteorological or electronic phenomena, or as light aberrations.
04:59There are tens of thousands of UFO reports each year worldwide.
05:04So with all this smoke, is there any fire?
05:09Stanton T. Friedman, a nuclear physicist,
05:13has looked at all kinds of photographs and video images of alleged UFO sightings.
05:20With today's modern technology, it's not too difficult to fake any kind of photographs.
05:25You know what computers can do, you see it on television all the time.
05:29But that isn't so true for pictures of flying saucers taken 20, 30, 40 years ago, even 10 years ago.
05:36Friedman believes that these older images must be true.
05:40This first image is from a movie camera.
05:43It shows a white disc-shaped object moving across the screen from right to left.
05:49This entire sequence takes roughly 1 20th of a second.
05:54As the footage was recorded in 1952, the visual evidence is difficult to dispute.
06:02In these photographs, there are two different views of an object which defy explanation.
06:08The first is of a disc-shaped object suspended above an Oregon farmhouse.
06:14The second is of the same object from a different angle.
06:19These images were examined by a research laboratory, and the photos could not be disproved.
06:30This next picture was taken by a French military pilot of a very similarly shaped craft.
06:37However, it was taken four years later and 6,000 miles away.
06:44The next set was taken by an official Brazilian navy photographer.
06:49This enlargement shows an outline of an object above the Brazilian mountains.
06:56There are at least 50 different companies on this planet that could build things that look like that.
07:01But I know of none that back in the 50s could build things that look like that and fly like that.
07:06High speed, sharp turn, no noise, no visible external engines, no wings, no tail.
07:12If it wasn't built here on Earth, it was built someplace else.
07:18With all of this supposed evidence, it is not hard to fathom the reactions some people may have
07:25and the beliefs they may form.
07:28Groups such as the Unarians are ready, willing, and able to assist their space brothers
07:34in establishing Earth as the 33rd member of the Interplanetary Confederation.
07:41The significance of this site, that we call the landing site,
07:45is that it is the locale for the landing of 32 spaceships.
07:51This is the Unarius Academy of Sciences' future campus, to be called Star Center No. 1.
07:59A non-profit entity funded by donations, the Unarius Academy of Science
08:04teaches students the Unarian philosophy of life.
08:08The Unarians distribute their beliefs in written publications printed at their facility
08:14and in videos produced in their own television production studio.
08:22The library at the academy is filled with books and videos,
08:26all reinforcing the belief that the space brothers will land and unite humanity.
08:36Although the Unarians are colorful and imaginative, and some may say a bit bizarre,
08:44with all the alleged evidence of alien visitors, who knows?
08:50They may be right.
08:54Stories of UFO sightings amaze us all.
08:59Ah, but what about personal encounters between extraterrestrials and ourselves?
09:07Let's take a look now at what may be actual evidence that aliens are real,
09:16and that they may implant objects in our bodies without our knowledge.
09:26Since man first cast his eyes skyward, he has sought answers to the unexplainable.
09:35Seeking help from the heavens, he wondered,
09:39what lay beyond, and am I alone?
09:44Recently, mysterious objects have been discovered and removed from human bodies.
09:51How they entered their victims is unknown,
09:55but some believe that they are alien implantations,
09:59possible proof that aliens are already among us.
10:03If he's out there, I'll find him.
10:05They may be from another planet, another star, whatever.
10:08Probably very close. In fact, maybe even from here.
10:13Why are they here? Why are they doing what they're doing?
10:16I mean, this is so bizarre to me.
10:18The world focused its attention on UFOs and meteorites
10:24in an often disputed crash outside of Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.
10:30This was reflected in the films of the era,
10:34dominated by frightening images of aliens seeking to control and take over.
10:41What did these aliens bring with them?
10:45And what could they give us or put into us?
10:52It was then that the idea of alien implantation first gained credence.
10:58It is now fueling the search for extraterrestrial life.
11:02I was introduced to the subject of alien implantation sort of accidentally.
11:09I met an investigator by the name of Darrell Sims
11:14who had been investigating this phenomenon for a number of years.
11:19I am a consummate skeptic because of my scientific background.
11:23His initial reluctance was surpassed
11:26by the unexplainable findings brought to his attention.
11:30Darrell Sims was contacted by a woman
11:33whose case would later bind the doctor to Sims and his cause.
11:38Pat Connolly presented some information to me.
11:41And in the course of the discussion, I said,
11:47Well, what would convince me that you've had this experience that you allege?
11:51She responded, I have some x-rays.
11:54These x-rays contained two unidentified objects in the toe of the right foot.
12:01Stranger still, it caused the woman no pain.
12:05If not for an unrelated hospital visit,
12:08she would have been completely unaware of their existence.
12:12He showed me some x-rays of feet with some interesting objects in it.
12:18And I looked at them and was not impressed.
12:23And then she handed me her medical report
12:26in which states that these objects were some kind of surgical clips
12:30that were installed due to previous surgery.
12:32The only problem is there was no history of previous surgery.
12:35And I said, well, can you prove that?
12:38And he said, well, I just happen to have all the medical records here
12:41and if you would like to take the time to go through them,
12:44I'll be happy to give them to you.
12:46And I said, well, I'll tell you what.
12:48You get the patient to California and I will do the surgery free of charge.
12:53Prior to the surgery, Dr. Lear received a call from Sims
12:57who based on experience with previous cases
13:00predicted the outcome of the surgery.
13:05Number one is you're not going to find any kind of inflammatory response,
13:08either acute or chronic.
13:10I said, second thing is you're going to find nerve cells
13:13and the wrong kind in a lot of them.
13:16For Dr. Lear, the surgery was a routine removal of a foreign body.
13:21With over 30 years' experience, he expected this surgery to be a normal one.
13:27He examined the area and found no visible port of entry.
13:33For the first half hour, the doctor probed diligently
13:37looking for elusive objects and was surprised by an unexpected reaction.
13:44Suddenly, I touched something and the patient violently objected.
13:49Her foot jerked off the table, she came out of the anesthetic.
13:53With enough anesthetic to numb her entire leg,
13:57her reaction betrayed the existence of nerve endings.
14:01In this case, proprioceptors found only on the surface of fingers and toes.
14:10Why would the tissue surrounding this object be loaded with the nerve cells?
14:14Down deep within the guts of a toe, down near the bone,
14:17they would have absolutely no function.
14:19From one side of the toe, we removed an object that was T-shaped
14:24and wrapped with a very dark, grey, dense, shiny membrane.
14:30On one end, the object was rounded like a bullet to treat the skin.
14:35The opposite end was shaped like a barb or a fishhook,
14:39allowing it to stabilize in soft tissue without moving.
14:45But this was only the beginning of the peculiar events in store for Dr. Lear.
14:52Agreeing to perform similar surgeries,
14:55the surgical team uncovered an identical object from the hand of a male patient.
15:01The following year, they would perform more surgeries,
15:05each one yielding an implant of unexplainable origin.
15:13Each of these objects was connected to a bundle of misplaced nerves.
15:17Surrounding tissues showed no signs of reacting to these foreign bodies.
15:23So to find no evidence of any inflammatory reaction whatsoever is very peculiar.
15:29What technique was used to insert these objects into the flesh
15:34without causing a reaction and leaving its host completely unaware?
15:41Analysis by world-class laboratories, however,
15:45did little to determine the origin of the objects.
15:49Only one of the elemental building blocks could be identified as an extraterrestrial metal,
15:56previously found in meteorites.
16:00The significance of these objects is not known.
16:04Previously found in meteorites.
16:08The significance of these objects to the medical world remains to be seen.
16:13Properly replicated, this technology might prevent the rejection response in organ transplantation.
16:23The implications for the prolonging of human life could be immeasurable.
16:30But there are more immediate concerns.
16:33Where do these objects come from?
16:36Are they benign flukes?
16:38Or do they serve another purpose?
16:41There are some popular theories.
16:43One is that they may be a tracking device for tracking the individual remotely.
16:49Another theory, which I really subscribe to more,
16:53is that they may be devices for monitoring certain body functions,
16:58as we do with our astronauts.
17:00Or they also may be for monitoring certain biochemical or genetic functions,
17:05or perhaps even monitoring pollutant levels that are in the body.
17:10But Daryl Sims has his own ideas about aliens and these implantations.
17:16In my view, they lie, and they lie consistently.
17:19They do not tell these people the truth.
17:21They don't tell them where they come from.
17:22They don't tell them a lot of things.
17:24They hide things in people's bodies for 41 years,
17:26and won't even leave a scar and tell you that it's there.
17:31Some of the things that are going on in the intelligence community
17:34is being held from the American people, and has been.
17:37At first, probably for a good reason, but not anymore.
17:41I don't know whether they're here to help us or save us or fix the planet or whatever.
17:45I suspect things different than that.
17:49Whether these visitors are here to help us or hinder us is unknown.
17:56Though their existence is almost undeniable.
18:01Well, this entire incident has gone on to virtually change my life.
18:07How could I ever be so egotistical as to think that we're the only living creature
18:12in the vastness of even the visible universe?
18:17Myths and legends.
18:19Bizarre phenomena.
18:21UFOs and aliens.
18:24These are things that have inspired us to track down those people,
18:30places and events that are truly different.
18:35I'm Jay Robinson, and I hope you've experienced the thrill of the chase
18:42and I hope you've experienced the thrill of the chase.
18:47Join us next time as we continue to pursue
18:52and encounter these unusual stories
18:58in this world.
19:01Bizarre.
