I have same experience here in the Philippines. At 4am, while I was on my way to the hangar in the middle of a banana plantation for our aerial spray operations, I noticed this steadily moving light (like an overly illuminated aircraft with no strobe or nav lights) in the sky. It made a C-pattern overhead before stopping fully for 10-20seconds, and it went shoot straight up gone to the atmosphere leaving a red and white trail like a comet. I was really amazed and shocked. Wasn't able to sleep for 2 days, really unforgettable.

This dude Luis Elizondo really deserves some credit. Whatever happens I hope he is remembered for waking people up to this

I think the only reason the government is acknowledging them is because the sightings are growing beyond their control, so this is their way of saving face.

In 1967 my family lived just 55 miles from Malstrom and my dad painted missile silos for the Minute Man missile program. MANY people in the area observed UFO's that year, there was just a rash of sightings. As a 11 year-old I scanned the skies every night - but it was winter and typically -10 deg F. so I didn't last long outside.

There were 30 of us walking in a group to our favourite swimming hole , I was dragging my feet at the back of the group and looked up for no reason and a silver UFO was just sitting in the sky about 300m away I yelled to my friends to look up and it was gone. That was in Brisbane Australia 35yr ago.

Several years ago I walked to a neighbors house and found him standing on his front porch looking up at the sky. I asked him what he was doing and he replied that he was watching a UFO. I got a creepy feeling and wondered what kind of drugs he was on but he directed my attention to a dot of light moving across the sky. I observed it for a good 20 seconds before it began to make instantaneous 90 degree turns without slowing down. I observed this”light” for approximately three minutes before it simply disappeared completely from the sky. Before that night I considered people who reported seeing UFOs as mentally ill, delusional or outright liars but seeing it with my own eyes was unmistakable. I’m an armature astronomer and have seen thousands of airplanes, dozens of satellites, the ISS and even the space shuttle cross the night sky over the years but what I saw that night was like nothing I had ever seen before. Seeing is believing, something is out there.

I’m in Australia I was fishing on the rocks it was just after midnight I sat and watched this thing zooming all over the horizon for about 5hrs just before sunrise it stopped in the same place for 10/15 seconds then went straight up gone in the blink of an eye 👁 amazing stuff

1935, Fremont NE, Grandparents witnessed a light that went from white light to many other colors and rose from ground-level to high-cloud level in what they estimated to be about 2 seconds.

Saw one back in the 90s along with my wife while in AF. Mentioned it to one friend. A week later in front of others he asked me if I have seen any aliens lately. I never mentioned it again to this day.

Stunned silence.. that’s exactly what it was like! Just.. speechless. Same feeling.

Also saw something unidentifiable in South London, one evening many years ago after soccer training. Me and 5/6 team mates sat mesmerised for about 45 minutes, watching a very bright light in the distance, move in patterns no plane or helicopter could make. I can assure you that as a bunch we were all sober, not prone to over dramatics, nor UFO nuts. At the end, we didn't know what it was, just what it couldn't have been. One common feeling though, was that it could hear us or see, in spite of being some distance away. Every time one of us commented on it, the movement seemed to stop. Eventually it went from left to right one more time, at a phenomenal speed, but this time didn't come back.

My Grandfather was a career Navy Engineer who worked for NASA. He also had a military pilots license. He said the technology from out of this world exists. He was tasked with reverse engineering it.

I live in Washington DC, I'll never forget that night in 1965 when I was 10 years old. While walking my dog around a high school track a bright orange light dropped down to within 200 yards of the ball field, it then moved horizontally left and right then just stopped! It hovered there for maybe five minutes but it seemed like five hours to me. It then moved vertically straight up and was gone in two seconds, I mean gone! I stood there mouth open, heart pumping holding the leash looking up. I knew that you never see air craft in the sky over DC save military copters, it's all a no fly zone, so what was that? Years later I reconciled to the fact that I saw an alien craft, a beautiful orange and yellow and reddish brown plasma like craft.

I have seen things in the sky do things that NO conventional aircraft would be able to do, it would rip it to pieces.

When I was about 14 years old, I saw seven suns in a foggy day. Six suns were in circular pattern and one was in the middle of the circle. All suns had same brightness. The foggy day was gone around 12:00 pm and the day was clear as normal, sun was back to normal. I couldn't figure out what happened, newspaper said it was sun's reflection.

When you realize that the America is probably not the only place the aliens will go to. They could be going around countries to observe human activities. It gave me chills to think that I could probably encounter them anytime and anywhere

Will there be more than two seasons of this program? It is fascinating because it is scientific, rational and shows many confirmed sightings by military individuals. I hope they will do more seasons and episodes.

Saw a similar UFO 🛸 in northern Canada while on manoeuvres on remote tundra. Meets all criteria as described by Gibson. This was somewhat different. It appeared close to ground level and 3 small aliens were visible on their observation deck. Super scary.

You’ve gathered the public’s attention. We are ready for disclosure! 👽

These things have been watching us for thousands of years whatever they are!

I have seen once. It was moving in random direction with white bright light then it moved fast in one direction and the light disappeared.

Aliens do this for leisure and call it "aurora borealis surfing". Is very popular in the northern quadrant of the galaxy.

These UFO’s create their own gravity, that’s how they move so fast.

Having anti gravity must somehow let them get around the effects of inertia that would kill any pilot of craft

I watched 2 UFO, cigar-shaped travelling from Canada to the USA. This was 1969. No aircraft could do what I saw the one on the left do. It shot off to the left of the other UFO, and abruptly stopped at that distance, but kept travelling parallel to the other UFO. Approximately 15 seconds later it shot back to the same distance from the other one, as they kept travelling to the USA. About 20 years later I was driving downtown Vancouver, BC, Canada, and the thought came into my mind...why did that one on the left do that maneuver? It had no reason to do so being intelligent beings, capable of flying such an aircraft. It got my attention, and then I thought a message. "Hi, you are too young to know right now. We know you will not hurt us." So that was a time delay message they gave to me from high above the planet surface. I believe they knew who I was.

The comment section is hilarious. So many people assuming they know what's going on. None of us do.

for those who believe that Lou is a phony, consider this: when he Ran AATIP, his was specifically given security clearance that was probably one step below that of the POTUS. he even pointed out in this series, that there things he may never be allowed or able to reveal due to level of confidentiality.

Thank you so much, History Channel. 🏆

I witnessed a craft near loring AFB in Northern Maine summer of 98' it was shaped like a football but pointy at both ends glowing a bright whitish yellow color and shot off so fast it left a light trail.

Also if the Aurora was moving around it must mean it was producing strong magnetic fields

They are here and they have been here for a very long time

i also have an experience with the same thing in central new york, walking a dirt road on a hill at night raccoon hunting and my friend shined a mag lite flashlight into the sky and then a enormous bright light appeared above us for approximatly 15-20 seconds with no sound and then instantly dissappeared, and time froze for us then after looking at each really almost forgot to talk about it with each other and never really told anybody either like it scrambled our mind temporarily

It couldn't be because of all the nuclear weapons, after all, we have never been warned about having nuclear weapons have we,oh that's right, we have

The scariest sighting imo is of a craft over the brittish Isles that measured at least a mile in length that hovered motionless. You wonder how many crewmembers it takes to fly a craft that's the size of 20 stadiums.

Haven't you noticed that all UFO activity is always near military bases or presence

I've noticed most things happen around 3-4am whether it be human, animal or something we can't explain.

Anyone ever think the reason ETC (Extraterrestrial Crafts) go inside the Aurora Borealis is because its made up of charge electromagnetic particles and just like we gotta refuel mid flight, that may be their way of refueling mid exploration.

The alien that was in the aurora borealis was recharging fuel or absorbing energy.

In 1965 flying saucers were that fast. They looked like they had a glowing framing structure with in the craft at close range eye level. I can see how there might be a connection between the glowing ball look at a far distance. You just may very well be looking at a flying saucer with in that glow.

I acknowledge Tahoe same as Craig freithz, from Australia, only I was in Vietnam, in 1968, I watched the same serine for about 2 hours, with the same ending.

This is all truth and we all must learn to deal with it. :)

I love star gazing since I have been a kid. I'm in my 60's. Never have seen a thing.

I don't find it terrifying that 'they' have the ability to turn off ICBMs. I find it reassuring.

There was a video, probably a year ago that talks about Admiral Bird, seeing flying disc going into the water, I guess they took it down

I've seen these in skies above Hawaii.

*Canada Day, July 1st 1983.* When I was eleven years old, I had a similar experience that happen around ten o'clock in the evening. It was Canada Day and I was staying at my cousin’s house to watch the fireworks, scheduled to begin at 11:15 pm. Hundreds of people had gathered in the area, the most of whom were relaxing on lawn chairs. Around ten o'clock, there was an eerie glow coming from the west. The glow quickly transformed into shimmering ribbons of light. The Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) is a rare sight in our region though I must say that it was the most magnificent thing that I have ever seen. We stood there, mesmerized, as the dancing lights changed in brightness and hue, creating the most vivid colors across the spectrum. When the Aurora was directly overhead, I swear that it began to descend. I remember thinking if I had climbed onto the roof of the building, I could possibly touch it. What happened next is the most astonishing experience of my life. The shimmering light converged into a massive white sphere approximately 30 feet in diameter. It looked like planet made of vapor except with rays of light emanating outward. This globe descended roughly 50-60 feet above my uncles housing unit and it was bright enough to light-up the ground like daylight. I remember watching the shadows underneath my uncle’s car vanish. I asked my cousin what he thought it was, but he didn't respond. When I tapped his shoulder, he did not budge. Everyone was in suspense, frozen in time like mannequins. For a moment, there was complete silence. Suddenly, there was a flash and I looked around to see who had a camera. The sphere began to lift. As it got higher, the luminescence gradually dissolved. The crowd resumed normal activity. The northern lights lingered in the upper atmosphere for another thirty minutes. The fireworks began, though it felt insignificant compared to what had just transpired. The weird thing is nobody remembers the Aurora Borealis or the giant sphere.

I grew up on Malmstrom and I remember this happening. Wasn’t common knowledge outside the base population much, but my buddies and I saw quite a few weird things at night while we were sneaking around base at night.

I love dis channel

Check out Robert Hastings UFO's and Nukes...he's been researching the connection for forty years.

Thank you for your service. Be kind to one another. Be safe out there people. Love to all

I love the additional stories in comments section! Fasinating stuff and I believe them.

Just yesterday night my Father saw this weird flying object with lights going around it(circular object) and it just hovered above our house and this was during night.

Hi Tav Ferry... I suspect you'v never had an encounter, if you did then please share with us... In Cape Town South Africa at the start of Jan 2015 I had an encounter with 3 orange orbs flying overhead. They decended slowly in formation to about the height of normal airliners and had no wings or any other protruding pieces that I could see. I gazed at them through the windscreen of my car and just as I thought they're gonna stop... they sped off towards the west, faster than I could blink. I turned my head to catch another glimpse & just managed to see them make a 90 degree turn upwards towards space, still in formation & within a split second they were gone. I was so dumbstruck & fixated... it took me a while to restart my car & drive off. A few short days later a friend showed me a newspaper clip that mentions similar looking orange orbs seen the world over, from Moscow to Hawaii & my theory is... they followed the new years eve fire works around the world as it was set off. I can just imagine how easy it must be to see all these lights from space... & I also guess they, these extra terrestrial beings have an interest in any man made thing that lights up our skies because of the nukes that was exploded over Japan during WW2... Don't you think they are concerned ? Maybe they thought our fireworks were bombs & came to investigate. Just maybe... that's the reason they are spying on army bases that has nukes. If our nuclear weapons can block out our sun, kill all animal & plant life including us... don't you think the exultant radiation negatively affects the surrounding atmosphere as well... If I was them... it would concern me. One last thing... suppose they've been coming here for thousands of years, they would have seen over time how blood thirsty we humans are, how we love wars & killing... Don't that give them ample reason to be concerned when we now have weapons of mass destruction as well ? Think about it.

Alien wife: honey, the humans are playing with nukes again Alien husband: okaaay, I'll go check ..

Ive seen several twolight thing in sky here in philippines its so high yet too Fast idk what that thing is

The UFO was on a refill mission as well as the air force!

And yes they want to protect the world..after all they do live here too .thats why we see them so often

thanks History channel for relasing and all those who spend all these efforts esp Luis Elizondo cheers

I personally have witnessed a ufo along with my wife and friends and other people who were there , I informed the RAF but nobody ever contacted me about it . I checked up local press and there was quite a few sightings that night. I personally believe they have been visiting us for years if not centuries but decide to keep they distance which I can understand why as I think the majority of the world are still not ready for this knowledge.

Good stuff

The Honda 1969 750 was either reverse engineered alien technology, or Soichiro Honda was the most brilliant motorcycle designer of the 20th Century! The first bike you could ride anywhere and get back home every time. At a top speed of approx 130 mph it definitely was a "flying object!"

Me and my family were camping east of utah it was around 11:40 P.M on May 20th when I walked out my camper to go set by the fire I felt the need to look up at the stars and what I witnessed was about 20 bright lights traveling North East in a straight line. I told my wife to come see what I was seeing she only saw the end where theses lights disappeared one after another. In sequence. Still going north east.

August 1983, while serving in the Corp, was sent to Diego Garcia "TAD" with my squad , had to train with my Guys and their Navy Seals to know how to better support them....Of course every Marine always has to do watch's....And while I was roving on the far end of flight line 1/6 out by a piece of equipment called "RayWin" its used by the Aerographers to provide upper air data for the pilots at this NAF!....I Saw an extremely bright white light come out of the water about 3 miles off shore estimate!!....HOVER for about 20 seconds and then move a distance of about 3 miles staying just above the water and come to an abrupt stop within 1 second and then started to wobble just like one of those Toy Gyro's do when its RPMs start to get slow, and was very slowly ascending at the same time, I called out the 4 aerographer's outside to confirm if they see what Im looking at...ALL 4 DO!!....I get on the radio and get ahold of the Air Traffic controller, and he confirms seeing it, but that there's no blip on his PPI of a SPN-40 radar system in service at the time....We watched this thing for 10 mins slowly ascend till it got to micro gravity I guess, and then it picked up speed and rapidly went into outer space and disappeared!!....The next day me along with 5 other sailors and anybody else who witnessed this event were interviewed by Naval "NIS".....When questioning me about it, not once did they EVER tried to question/tear apart what I was recalling and they were more convinced that it was REAL THAN TRYING TO DEBUNK IT!!.....I was told to keep my mouth shut and not to disclose this event to anyone, I say FK IT, this is the first time I have ever wrote about this event, we all know beyond a doubt that it was a UFO from beyond our world, .....Saw another event where I live in 2015, I saw a very bright light come out of the river and within 1 second it was gone vertically into the heavens and just GONE-POOF!!...They are definitely here people and I believe that its been that way for a very long time!!.....The truth needs to come out!!

That's what scared me about ufo usaf was chasing it flew just above the ocean, then it lowered into the ocean and it's speed was not affected, please tell me I'm not only one alarmed by that. How is that possible, we are so far off of abilities that probably couldn't understand if we were told. WTF.

ufo creat their own magnetic field. and they start to worry, about how we use nuclear as weapon

Thank you for sharing your experience about the possibility and probability that we are not alone.

Back around 1966 when I was an eagle-eyed teenager (and completely sober) I was with my buddy, who was kissing his girlfriend goodnight. I gave them some privacy and stood around the corner of one of our town's public schools. As I looked up into a beautiful crystal clear night, I saw what I first thought was a "star" move and then stop several times. It looked similar to a satellite and it was outside of our atmosphere, but it would move great lengths vertically up the sky and suddenly stop on a dime almost without slowing down. This "star" moved and stopped several times vertically up the sky until it was almost overhead when it suddenly got dimmer and dimmer before it disappeared. It kind of zig-zagged instead of going in a straight line. Since I was able to see it from so far away, I noticed that it would come to a complete stop almost without slowing down, except just before it stopped, I could see a slight deceleration. The fast movement to a complete stop was not perfect. It slowed down very quickly before it stopped leading me now to believe that these UAP (ufos) do not have complete control of inertia, but it is amazing how quickly they can go from a stop to a super fast speed and then stop almost on a dime. BTW, as it faded away, it seemed to quiver or vibrate leading me to guess that it was on its way to going somewhere else in space. My buddy will back me up on this story. I've never forgotten it after all these years. This was about 1966 when we couldn't do these things then, or now.

Atip is the actual “threat”

2020 it's a special timing, when the whole world slow down and people start to stay at home, look at their innerself, explore the world that is not bounded by physical boundries. Maybe within 3 - 5 years, UFO and alien contact will be more publically and widely discussed and admited, new generation will used to a world with UFO or aliens. Is 2020 a starting of new era? Humanbeings shouldn't be so complacent of our achievement so far, there are still so much unknowns..

Live just south of dallas, look up one night and a completely silent perfect triangle slowly goes from horizon to horizon, single light on each tip. Very low to the ground, a few seconds later a military jet trails behind it, ive always looked up and seen what are most likely satellites, but this thing could not be explained. Most likely a top secret drone, but man it was amazing. Who knows, but until youve seen something truly unexplainable, dont judge.

Until I saw one myself, I didn't find these type of conversations of interest to me. I saw a metallic cylinder on the ground take off and reach speeds that it disappeared from eye site in seconds on a clear cloudless day.

Not too much to disclose when so many people know the truth.

One day the real truth will come out.

I love it that they interview him in an industrial dark room with one hanging light. A set requires an actor

Don't tell the government.. you'll only be told it's a weather balloon.. 🤣🤣🤣

2nd. HEY WORLD GOD BLESS TO ALL 🙌🏽

To all aliens please pick me up because after this year's pandemic and so many other horrible events I just want to get off this crooked planet of so many filthy rich evil monsters ruining us all. Pick me up ET I'm fed up here so you can operate on me or whatever I want off this rock.

I had the craziest encounter right outside my bedroom window.. I repeatedly capture free different kinds of unknowns... Why they keep coming here ori keep seeing them I get like a sense and boom they are out in sky.... Ty for sharing this

This is a very interesting observation by the pilot stated: 'the object became brighter by the light'. This means that it has an interaction via an electromagnetic field be it internally by the object or externally. Either case this potential should be studied further.

Plasma, which can appear of a metallic nature, & may be more frequent during what's called "Flux Transfer Events", where the Earth's & Sun's magnetic fields merge into a tunnel like structure.

I’m going to look for sightings outside of America. It’s strange that it’s always in US

Warwick here.. I and two others observed one similar object perform the same type of manouvres on a clear night with a 180 degree view from our car parked on top of a cliff overlooking the coastal town of Wollongong in 1969. It was saucer shaped, had an even whitish light contained within the perimeter of it's shape, emitted no flare, was completely silent, made 17 slightly varying passes at a height of approx 1000 ft at an estimated speed in excess of 3000 mph. It followed the shape of the land in front of us down to the shoreline, where it routinely made a 90 degree left hand turn and disappeared north toward Sydney at hypersonic speed without the process of acceleration. The vehicle made one reverse pass following the same grid in the opposite direction south along the shoreline, made a 90 degree right angle turn at the same spot in excess of 3000 mph without any decrease in speed, zipped past us and disappeared back over the hill following the shape of the land headed inland west. All up, it took about 40 mins.

Two questions: (1) Have any of these events/things been picked up outside of the earth's atmosphere? (2) Has the anyone on the space station seen something pertinent to this issue>

They forgot Griffiss and Plattsburgh AFBs whiuch had their share of UFO sightings during that time.

We had so many ICBMs here in Arizona-if anything happened whole country would see missiles fly! They are everywhere!!

Years ago before this phenomenon became mainstream, I thought I’d be okay if we were being visited; however, the more this appears to be real, I now realize that it honestly terrifies me.

Repeat repeat n repeat.... And that's what history channel do.....

No way would this guy talk unless told too he’s doing as he’s told!

does the guy in the suit have a barcode tattoo behind his head?

I couldn't help but notice the show now says "When Elizondo worked with AATIP" and not "When Elizondo headed AATIP"...which could never be verified.

I have alien pictures from my trail cam. I also have pictures of their flying saucer with them looking out their windows. I haven't posted them because of the men in black would be at my door.

Similar experience to others. I was outside drinking, heavily, after a long stressful day at work. After I finished my first handle of whiskey, I looked up to the sky and noticed that all the stars appeared to be moving. All of them, very slowly but seemingly in unison. One in particular was brighter than the rest, and appeared to manipulate the path of the other stars. I watched it for a good 10-20 seconds when it suddenly shot straight up and vanished. About that same time, I fell unconscious and felt as though I was being examined. Something was looking at me. A warm feeling swept over me...a feeling of calm and reassurance. When I awoke, I was lying in the driveway with my pants around my knees and a scar on the back of my head. To this day, the few people I’ve told make a joke about it but it was real. I don’t know what took place as it’s starting to get fuzzy the older I get but I don’t go outside at night anymore. It’s not an experience I want to happen again.

I’m so excited about UNIDENTIFIED... SO EXCITING... HURRY UP LOU! Get this out in the open...

I also witnessed something similar to this

The aliens are/were interested in humanitys technology of nuclear power and the bomb I believe as activity picked up after those were developed. I believe they were at some of the nuclear tests of bombs doing reconassence to see what it would do - and are responsible for playing with the operating systems of nuclear missile systems. You shouldn't make a grey alien mad.

That UFO was recharging by induction, when recharged it brightened up and shot off

My friends and I were laying on a trampoline and we saw what looked like a shooting start make an almost right angle turn in a split second We all saw it. Brisbane Australia

I miss ufo files 🥺

There is a tremendous amount of electricity in that region of space, within the aurora borealis some 200 miles up. Is it possible that UFO's have a capicity to "charge up" the propulsion system they are using. Perhaps this UFO could have been carrying out a quick charge up of some sort relative to the way it is designed and is so able to do this.
