In 2008 in Stephenville, Texas a local pilot sees lights in the sky over his ranch coming from something huge. He is not alone: hundreds of people saw the craft, and a local reporter makes it her life’s work to tell their stories. From this classic encounter we head back several decades to the beginning of the UFO phenomenon in America and the launch of Project Blue Book to study the country’s growing “UFO problem.”

About UFOs: Investigating the Unknown
In 2021, the US government passed legislation mandating an official investigation into UFOs. This provocative series unspools the history leading up to this momentous change and reports on recent developments. It explores what the government made public versus what was kept hidden; citizens' push for transparency while confronting mass UFO sightings; Navy pilots' reports of unexplainable technology; new cutting-edge scientific efforts; and what the future might hold for this confounding mystery which is the focus of a deepening and expanding search for answers.

    Mysterious flying objects. Claims of crashed alien spacecrafts. The U.S. has spent decades inquiring into the unknown—here's what they've learned: on.natgeo.com/3rWuBoZ

    I remember being on the field at recess in my elementary school playing soccer with my friends, grade 4 or 5 and all of a sudden it was like the oxygen was sucked out of the air, everyone, teachers and supervisors outside all the kids stopped and froze looking around, then absolutely silently 3 literal ufos flying as low as a helicopter following traffic flew over our little school so fast, the teachers brushed it off and me and my friends were like WOW ALIENS and just giggled....ill never forget it, i actually found one of my old classmates on facebook to see if she remembered and she said the same .."how could i forget"

    Love that these are still being made. Used to get Nat Geo magazines delivered to our door as a kid. Now I can watch these on YouTube as an adult.

    I’m confident in saying that there’s been more unreported sightings than reported sightings. It never crossed my mind to report my sighting. Mine happened in May 1973. It was awesome!

    I never believed in UFO's until about 8 years ago when I was on a cruise in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico. So, sitting on my balcony about 12 a.m., just stargazing. I've always loved looking at night sky full of stars. Of the millions of stars, I focused in on 3 of the furthest looking ones. Just looking and thinking. Then, the three stars started moving! Closer together, then spread apart...closer together, then spread apart. Did that about 4 times. Then, the 3 stars shot to the left side of the sky! Then to the right! Back and forth until they were about 1000-2000 feet in front of me. By then, they weren't 3 stars anymore. They were 6-8 circular lights twirling, shifting, floating. Then they just hovered there on the side of the ship...almost like they were "watching/studying" the boat. Hovered there for about 2 minutes. Then, they shot off past the front of the boat. Finally, out of sight in a flash. It all happened so fast and it was like I was so shocked trying to make sense of what I was witnessing. I always thought people who talked about UFO's were crazy, until I saw that. Weird weird weird.
  • I was there. I remember channel 5 news showed the radar track of the object the next day. The dopler weather radar showed the exact same track of the object, including the F16's that flew out of what was then Carswell AFB. The story was killed by local media shortly thereafter. I was on duty as police officer at that time, I remember seeing the F16's in full afterburner.

    Once you see your first UFO, it's a life-changing experience you won't see things the same no more
  • I saw a UFO outside London in Dec 1980, it was reported on radar by the RAF. Later I learned that was the same night at the Rendelsham forest incident at the Bentwaters US Air Force Base where nuclear materials were kept. Multiple soldiers saw the craft and two actually touched it.

    I live in Northern Nevada. George is a great advocate for our wild horses amongst other animals. I just wanted to say thank you George!❤

    So cool to understand the history of this, we’re living in a great moment of disclosure

    In the early 80s I was fishing with my husband on the river in Missouri. We watched 3 bright orange orbs moving in patterns for at least 15 minutes then zoom off and disappear. I asked my husband if he saw it and he said yes. We never talked about it again. Forward to 2018, I was sitting on my front porch steps around midnight. A craft appeared above me with no sound and round, weird neon lights underneath. I could make out a black triangle. It hovered over me around 30 seconds, then swisher away in an extremely fast right curve with no sound and disappeared. I seriously feared being beemed up. I kept saying, no, I'm a child of God, I don't want to go.

    I seen a UFO here on the east coast of Ireland just outside Dublin 2 months ago, had about 20 lights move back and forth,it stayed for about 15/20 seconds then took off at light speed towards space. First time to ever see something like that
  • @losthonky
    Saw this exact event, explained as it was in the video and lasted quite a while. Grew up just 20 mins from there, was not a military exercise which usually happened further west of there and there were jets scrambled from Ft Worth that night that flew right over my house that night to chase. The uneasy feeling I got when I saw these lights will stick with me forever.
  • Really glad NatGeo kept the comments open for this one. Get your popcorn everyone! 🍿
  • When I was around 5 or 6 years old, I had an unforgettable experience that left me in awe. I remember looking up at the sky one day and being captivated by a peculiar sight. It was an object unlike anything I had ever seen before, with its large size and two wing-like structures. I couldn't tear my eyes away from it; it was simply mesmerizing. Excitedly, I rushed to inform my parents about the strange phenomenon. But when I returned to the spot just a couple of minutes later, the object had vanished without a trace. I was left bewildered, wondering what I had witnessed. Years later, during my high school days, I came across information about the Hubble telescope. To my astonishment, the images I saw bore a striking resemblance to the mysterious object from my childhood. It was like a puzzle piece falling into place, validating that I hadn't imagined things as a young child. What I had witnessed was indeed something unusual and extraordinary. Though I have never encountered that object again, its memory has remained ingrained in my mind. I often find myself contemplating what it might have been and where it originated from. The truth may forever elude me, but I cherish the fact that I was able to experience something so enigmatic and carry that memory with me throughout my life.

    Summer 2017. I will never forget. I'm not crazy i have been quiet about it. It happened and i watched a saucer immediatly fly and stop horizontally, hover for about 5 minutes and shoot up into the sky at an insane speed. I didn't have my phone either, so crazy.
  • The older I get, The more I realize that authorities are no more intelligent, incorruptible, objective, or honest than anyone else. They’re dumb enough to believe they know best when clearly they don’t. We know these anomalies exist. We deserve to know whatever information our governments possess.

    Back in '66 my mom and I both saw something that defied physics. It was about the size of a beach ball, orange, and moved laser pointer quick. No rushing of air when it moved, no sonic booms were heard when it clearly surpassed the speed of sound. Literally up and over a mountain in a flash. It was one of those moments that is burned into your brain, I can still visualize it to this very day. And no explanation all these years later.

    Awesome documentary - and the strongest moment is the emotional break-down ... wrong, break-through of the lady editor admitting she made a big mistake cutting off her journalist back in the day. That is very honorable and inspiring of her. We should remember never judge down on our fellow sisters and brothers just because we don't want to be true what they are telling and believing. It is almost always driven by fear it could be true. And fear is the worst compass pursuing truth and dignity.
