Invasion Earth

This episode takes us around the globe from Pucallpa in Peru, to Stephenville Texas in the United States and onto Bass Strait in Australia. In this episode, strange lights aloft are linked to rumored gruesome deaths on the ground; F16 fighters appear to chase a UFO heading straight for a US Presidential retreat and a young Australian pilot disappears mid-flight over the sea after reporting a strange craft dancing around his light aircraft.

Reports of unexplained lights in the sky have appeared throughout history and from all over the globe. This episode of Invasion Earth starts on the East Coast of the US in 1965 following a reported crash landing, before moving to Europe to examine a strange light streaking across the skies of Spain and Portugal as recently as 2004. Finally we return to the 1960's, but this time to delve into a Southeast Asian UFO mystery in war-torn Vietnam. One man tells of his disturbing experience of a mysterious light appearing over a military base, which seems to knock out the camp's electricity.

In this episode we visit a small Amazonian fishing community called Colares that was seemingly terrorized by UFOs in the late 1970's. Dozens of residents claim to have been the victims of beams of light, shining down on them from UFOs, draining them of energy and leaving them with strange cuts. We also travel to Victoria, Australia where, in 1966, a young driver is killed on an empty stretch of road late at night. There are no witnesses to his crash but it comes to light that someone else reported seeing a UFO in the same place several days before. Finally, we examine a police helicopter's encounter with an unusual object over Louisville, Kentucky.

In this episode, witnesses in Texas claim their confusing physical illnesses are the result of a massive, fiery, diamond-shaped object; a mass sighting in Arizona of lights gliding across the sky prompts accusations of a government cover-up by some; and in the skies above Brazil, jet fighters play a high stakes game of cat and mouse with unknown lights.

Deep in the Arctic Circle, in the winter of 2009, the skies of Northern Norway are lit up by an incredible but seemingly inexplicable light display. In 2006 one of the world's busiest airports is enveloped by UFO reports that come from the staff of a major US airline. Lastly we go back to the early years of the UFO phenomena and re-live the public scare of the great Washington UFO flap of 1952. Are there rational, scientific explanations for these fantastic events? Subject the scrutiny of investigative journalists and academic experts why do suspicions of conspiracy and cover-ups remain? Will the truth ever be revealed? Invasion Earth endeavours to expose the truth.
