UFOs Declassified

Just a few months after Japan's bombing of Pearl Harbor, Los Angeles came under an air attack of its own, but from who, or what, remains a hotly debated topic. Some people, including a former FBI agent and UFO investigator, believe it may be the first and best-documented case of an extraterrestrial visitation. Others are more skeptical. One thing is certain. Something incredible happened on February 25, 1942. Now, with recently declassified top-secret documents and startling new evidence, we attempt to unlock this 73-year-old mystery.

In 1980, Britain's most significant UFO sightings occurred in the woods between two U.S. NATO Air Force bases. Documented accounts of the events, including one lieutenant colonel's remarkable audio recording, argue that some kind of phenomena appeared, but what? Join us as we study declassified military reports, interview UFO experts, and bring some of the witnesses back to the site more than 30 years later. We determine if their accounts were influenced by the stress of an intensifying Cold War or if there's another, otherworldly explanation.

For decades, thousands of sightings of dark, delta-shaped flying objects have been reported in North America and Europe, all filed under an ominous name: "Black Triangles." Investigators are still unsure of what these mysterious craft are or where they came from. Join our investigation as we gather eyewitness accounts, expert testimony, and top-secret government files in an attempt to determine if these UFOs were optical illusions, top-secret military test planes, or the best examples of extraterrestrial visitations on record.

A rancher finds crash debris in the New Mexico desert on a summer night in 1947 and takes the mysterious materials to the authorities. The military calls it a crashed flying saucer, but then curiously changes its story overnight. Why? Welcome to Roswell, home of one of the most talked about UFO incidents in history and the most controversial. Join us as we apply 21st-century analysis to this 20th-century mystery in an attempt to either debunk decades of conspiracy theories or prove that we are indeed not alone in the universe.

Each year, there are millions of commercial flights around the world, and thousands of aircraft in the sky at any given moment. With that many eyes in the skies, it's little wonder that some of the most stunning UFO sightings have been reported by airline pilots. Relive three of the most riveting encounters, which took place over Alaska, New Mexico, and the English Channel. Join us as we open up recently declassified government files and talk to eyewitnesses in an attempt to explain the seemingly unexplainable.

Secret Soviet spy planes? Radar hoaxes? Ball lightning? Or something from another world? Several military pilots have encountered unknown phenomena while on duty, especially during the heat of the Cold War. Some actually tried engaging the objects in combat. But were any of them bona fide alien aircraft? By examining decades of recently opened government UFO investigations, and interviewing leading experts and pilots who lived through the sightings, we attempt to separate the explainable from the extraterrestrial.
