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.

I couldn't care less about UFOs until The Phoenix Lights craft flew over my head by 30 feet in 1997. That craft was HUGE, totally silent, no wind, no odor, no heat. What looked like lava was flowing from the bottom openings, it glowed but didn't burn. I'm a believer ever since.
Have heard of strange occurrences in the Mogollon Rim area of Arizona. Defo a lot of activity in this region.
@@nuntana2 I had two up close encounters with non humans in the desert on camping trips. One looked like an 8 foot ant like being, waling on two legs, the other was 3 beings in silver suits, when they turned sideways they looked to be super thin, I thin a camouflage trick
exactly the same testimony as another guy that was interviewed Either you’re just copy pasting his words or you’re the same guy
@@guy14552 probably me, I've had this channel only a few months. I was starting a cooking show but decided to record some of my amazing life experiences first, as health challenges are showing up, I don't want to take my experiences to the grave with me.
@@UncleDavesKitchen Or maybe interdimensional? We would see things as thin.
My Uncle was a Captain with American Airlines for many years. He resided in California; my family lived in Upstate NY. He stopped to visit us after one of his cross country flights and he shared a related story to this National Geographic video. They were flying over New York state and a long cylindrical, metallic object without wings or a tail very quickly approached their jet. It followed them right off their side for 20 minutes or so and air traffic controllers had it on radar. No one knew what it was. Air Force fighter jets were launched. When they approached, the object darted away at blinding speed. This was before smart phones, but many passengers had cameras and had taken photos. When they landed, "Authorities" confiscated the cameras, apparently after searching passenger bags etc. My Uncle, his co-pilot and crew were debriefed that this event "never occurred'. Unfortunately, my Uncle passed away a few years ago; I know he would have loved to share this experience (and others he had) with this Journalist and researcher.
hudson valley in the 80s?
Ya this is an amazing story are you sure he never wrote it down anywhere?
The Hudson Valley had a few episodes, some noted in the 1960s. A friend of mine told me a story of a security guard and him over the Wanaque Resavuar in north Jersey where a "flying saucer" shaped object hovered over the lake and burned a large hole in the ice. Others saw it too and it made the local news papers.@@chad3452
For your family’s mind of peace, everything is from this world, planet, reality
@Arizona_Vineyard You have no proof of that. You definitely haven’t done your homework….we’re not alone on this planet. Millions of people have seen these spacecraft, or have been abducted. They’re not all crazy, delusional, or drunks.
I am actually watching this as some relief from real-world news, the world has changed so much in the past couple of years its crazy
I feel like it has been a crazy rollercoaster for 8 years! I'm fed up with it!
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC is NOT 'Real World News'. 🧐👌
Well, a fair warning to ya, the more you get into the subject, the more potentially disturbing it can get. It’s pretty mind boggling at times, but sticking to the facts of the whole thing can be alright.
They have been taking craft down and they have been back engineering the tech ... They lie
Put your seatbelt on and get ready for the Ride of Our Lives 🌌🌏🛸
Great grandmother said back in the 60s when they lived way out in a rural area that out of the sky a bright light came down late at night and was shining directly down onto their house. She has no reason to lie to her own family. She never lied about anything.
Sooooo many people have seen "something" that cannot be explained. I believe your elder. ❤
holy spirit
you know something is coming when Nat Geo does a documentary about them.
Probably our own tech dressed up as an "alien menace" . . . to get rid of our protections by a Constitutional Republic. No aliens are a threat.
Makes me wonder why now? What's the agenda here?
You sure? Nat Geo and the "History" channel as a whole have been pumping out hot garbage for a long time now. They take old cases and old videos and put some music over it and then they have people repeat themselves over and over again until commercial break lmao, they take about 5-10 minutes of actual content and then drag it out for an hour
@@elsdebakker330it’s pretty simple…they cant keep the lid on it much longer so better use it to their advantage and set the scene….for their advantage ofc.
Advertising revenue.
I love the irony of a journalist being mocked for reporting about UFOs. But if they report about celebrities, or some other fluff it's not mocked
Eh….it’s the press doing most of the mocking. Whatever the underlying dynamic or reasons, the press have worked hand in hand with the most viciously secretive organizations. And the consequences for not doing so have been vividly demonstrated. Same applies to elected officials, including the President, all of whom these “organizations” deem as temporary employees.
@@davidwilkins5932 == What's your favorite NASA-related case?
It's because people can relate to one subject but not the other.
@@steelsteez6118 It's because as ridiculous as those other things may be, they actually exist. There's no boogeymen out there wanting to take over this ridiculous world.
PS. You must lead a sheltered life. Journalists get mocked all the time for reporting on celebrities. Try and keep up.
Leslie Kean is the epitome of a real journalist - intelligent, bold, courageous. Much respect.
That little yellow box in the corner says it all. Thank god you're there Nat Geo.
Amen. Get this information to as many people as possible! Kids especially. Trash the stuff taught in school.
Hahaha good one.
Spot on
I recommend watching the video " kaleidoscope of facts - The Code of Gods. Extraterrestrial Civilizations and Their Impact" , after which all doubts about aliens will disappear, and you'll learn a lot of new and interesting things ❤
Yeah, let's ditch education in favor of branding. SMH.
Bravo Nat Geo for handling this topic with honesty, integrity and respect. If only our governments around the world would do the same thing.
thats a big ask
@@brenohighland1168 France has an ideal inter-agency working model for UFO/UAP research and public info dissemination.
With all due respect they muffed it up
If only our governments would stay in their lanes and out of the people's lives. Maybe the aliens would want to talk to us.
Much better than the history channel 😂
We're in more danger from each other than from unidentified objects. We have met the enemy and it is us.
You have an excellent point
That is a very well stated point. You also don't know who else is out there. And honestly, we can't even answer the question of how humans came to be humans. What if we are just an experiment, or experimenting on us to attain something that something else doesn't have.
If they have tech powerful enough to get here, they could have easily destroyed us already.
Us being influenced or used by them is worse, believe me, been there. And yes we are in danger.
Never a saner point made 👏
Love these types of videos. The mysteries of space, earth, time, technology, other worldly Life, 🙂
I only like one space ❤

No one is a beleiver until they see one for the first time. It changes you profoundly.
I’m a believer but I’ve yet to see anything with my own eyes. I hope one day I can say I have
Care to share your story? (If you have one).
Yep - just like ghosts...
lolololol
I kind of resent the word, "believe" it goes a long way toward attaching the idea of a fake religion . I think we need to know for sure. And we need to prove it !
It's like living in 2 worlds, no one around me believes it even when I show them videos. Sending peace and love to everyone❣
Its in our dna to not believe it. Its from another dimension without physical proof the human brain wont even fathom wat yohr saying were like dogs wen it comes to that subject n im so sick of it. We need physical disclosure
The worst is when you ask them why they don't believe they answer you things like "Oh governement would tell people !" or this is a "sci-fi movie thing". There are stories of sightings predating movies (vimanas?)...
And yet so many have belief in "faith" crazy? 👽
You are so right! My family gives me the "You'll believe anything" look. Even though I've been talking about UFO's for over 30 years! So I've given up & just do my own thing. But one of these days I'm going to loudly announce "I TOLD YOU SO"!!!!! 😂
Instead of videos of UFOs, why not try showing them the 2021 DIA UAPTF report announcing UFOs are solid object w flight characteristics we can’t match, and under intelligent control? Also quotes of gov and military officials confirming UFOs are real would maybe be more impactful than crappy vids..
The Problem with this Subject is, that it is easier to put aside and live happily than accept the bitter pill which questions all our core beliefs.
These people have worked hard, sleepless nights, lost jobs, money, and whatnot. There must be some truth in it. Or its all a cover-up for something else.
There is, just a few years ago the Pentagon admitted that there were definitely some things flying around in our skies that they could not explain. AND, it turns out the government and the Pentagon has continuously had organizations to investigate claims.of UFO's. ARRO, etc.@@harshyadav1224
Big words, Little data
It’s to much. A daunting task for congress to search for the truth. What if that truth destroys America? How many people have the balls to really fight for truth and not let fear and other things get in the way. Other things like all the other problems we have. I think disclosure is happening and will happen now but not like people think. I don’t see the president coming out and telling us. It’ll be a slow process where due to our technology people will know.
If people think that the US government and many other governments around the world have very little data on uap's they're mistaken. There have been several cases where multiple scientific instruments have all independently picked up on the same event. There is plenty of data on uap's.
I've seen that disk that leaves a hole in the clouds before! That's mad, I thought I was the only one.
When i was a flight attendant we left Atlanta enroute to Florida we were about half way there and i happen to look out the window and i saw a reflection of our aircraft outside the window i could see my reflection, i waved and i could see myself waving. I call the Captain and he said it was a "Prisim" the passengers saw the same thing i saw to this day i believe there was a craft flying along side of us that was cloaked or whatever they do to go undetected and our reflection was bouncing off of it.
A reflection from a prisim, Sounds like a temperature inversion when warm air is over cold, This usually happens in early summer in the morning
So you saw me too in the craft 😊.
❤ sounds right ❤💕👽
friend, this phenomenon is actually well studied and explained. it is weather phenomenon. Rare but it happens to pilots regularly. It is very dangerous and can mess up pilot's orientation.
@sharone.franklin-jackson1410 Do you mean to say that you saw the reflection of the plane with you inside waving - coming off the reflective surface of a cloaked craft? Or off the surface of a cloaking mechanism? so it was just a floating reflection, right? did it have an element of transparency, or did it appear as another solid plane? was it matching your speed exactly? if it was, that suggests an enormous craft. I've never heard of this ever happening, that's spectacular. And also doesn't really compute. bc if something is cloaked, then light is not bouncing off of it so a reflection isnt possible in that context anyway... heh. So im not 100% sure but a prism is just bent light right? i guess that might make a little sense. either way, regardless of WHAT it was, the fact that you witnessed it at all is amazing.
The fact that pilots are punished for reporting what they see tells me everything I need to know.
Because they are not supposed to talk about secret military aircraft it's classified they should get into trouble
@@johannesschmitz6370 OMG your right! I change my answer
Indeed
Like the B2 stealth bomber over Pheonix@@Lindseyfromgranite
yeah sure secret military aircraft following commercial airliners.......@@Lindseyfromgranite
The biggest open secret in the history of humanity…
What's your top 'NASA secret' on the subject? Specific event?
It’s either real extraterrestrials who’s made a deal with certain top officials in government agencies and trying to keep it a secret or we have certain technologies by independent contractors who are working with certain government agencies under the guise of top secret information of a need to know basis or possibly both.
r yall that weak minded ......why do yall have to be told what yall already know thass dumb asf
@@raymondomit6386 Multiple things can be true.
@@raymondomit6386 Bit of both I think. The smaller TR-3B black triangle craft is said to be American made, but there are similar massive triangles that have been hanging around for decades which are definitely not of this earth. It is when you have military pilots chasing down craft, with actual footage, that you have to take it seriously. One of the best accounts is the fairly recent battle over the skies near a Welsh military base. There's also that one in Brazil, which I think James Fox also got involved with, and the compelling school landings in Oz (Westall) and Zimbabwe (Ariel). They're all on here.
A guy I talked to relay the fact they were out on the sea at night. He said he and other NAVY crew watched a few Saucers exit the ocean and disappear as quick as they came. WOW. He said over the years, this stuff happened more than once
I saw 25 years ago. It was on top of my head 200 feet and the size was almost close to soccer field. No sound and moved around 100 miles straight. It happened in Tabriz City in Iran.
ill be damned. i was a kid around that exact time near o'hare airport, about 20 miles down the way in the suburbs when i saw a floating disk above me on my balcony. above the clouds. similar to what they described except eerily similar to what you may find from an old comic book. and here i am watching a video, all this time later and OTHER PEOPLE SAW IT TOO? i dont really know how to explain the feeling of knowing i wasnt the only one. wow. just.. wow. its around the 24:00 minute mark in this video.
W😮W!!!
Thank you Leslie and all the ufo reporters who have brought the experience's of so many to the world ❤
A excellent Investigative Journalism job, well done Matt & keep carrying the ball to the end zone! 🛸
Im 62 and hoping I will know what these are before my time comes.
We have to be optimistic. Thing have gone a long way since 2017. I think we might need another huge event like the phoenix lights. With all the cell phone nowadays and the credibility that the issue has gained in recent years, it will be figured out soon. Just a question of time.
I’ll tell you, these are high tech experimental aircrafts developed within confidential US military operations. it’s the us military, it’s not aliens. And I’m greater than 99% sure about that
They are UFOs.
Apparently we will within the next few years. We're in for a treat.
They are rock Stars.
Thanks Nat Geo! There's SO MUCH history and legitimate concerns to this topic. More and more everyday. My question is 'Why now?'
coz they are still afraid to exposed this matter!
Why not now? Should we wait 50 years more. I am sick of the cover up.
Because they want you to be distracted by the real threats happening in America as our democracy is about to fall. And because it sells in the grocery store check out line.
Not a single video (artist's interpretation) or photo in this Nat Geo piece of garbage is real. Were u born yesterday?
its propaganda read the title they want us afraid of non human intellegence to fund ww3
Congrats to National Geographic for stepping up to cover this. Obviously, there is something more to this reality than just military worries about their ways and means. The United States and maybe even a few other countries fear revealing the complete truth and the overall destabilizing effect it would have on society religion etc.
The only truth our government fears to divulge is they know as much as we do about UFOs.
I think it's about controlling information, the less we know the less questions they have to answer.
Dude. The only reason why Nat Geo or even the History channel is making vids like this is because there's millions of uneducated conspiracy theorists out there (like you) who will fall for it -- resulting in higher ratings and advertising money. It's exactly what FOX News has been doing since 2015 -- if millions of Americans want to hear lies and bullsh*t, then let em have it -- ratings go up, ad money goes up, revenues go up, FOX hosts and executives get rich (off of the most uneducated people in the country).
I'm not a genius or military anything. But there has to be a reason that NO NUCLEAR weapon has been used since world War 2. AND MANY LUNATICS HAVE THEM. AND HAVE FOR THE LAST FEW DECADES.
Can't resist tyranny if they make you believe Aliens are real. Quite the opposite. @@Kaboomnz
Leslie,dear… I’m happy you stuck with it. I was fifteen when I’m watching two aliens dissect a cow. Get in their space craft,hover over my head,telepathically told me two watch for lights,and whiz off into space in a nanosecond,so any info on UAP’s is appreciated. I hope what they are doing is positive.
I doubt if the cow thought that what they were doing was positive.
Sure Rebecca
So why didn't you ask them why they were mutilating the cow?
@@SkillmanHunterI am sure if anyone sees two aliens in a field desecting a cow... there is not much room in our tiny pre-historic brains to comprehend the full translation of: what the f am I seeing here....????? stunned into frozen more like it!
@@laurelledubois for sure! But they spoke to Mavern telepathically so could have asked them as they flew away. Why the heck do they need to torture cows.
In August 1997, Perth , Western Australia i saw a ball bearing shape object, floating stationary . I assumed it was a small aircraft window reflection. But it was not as it launched at incredible speed straight up into the sky away
A whole town of Westfall in Victoria Australia, saw a UFO that remained for an hour , and landed in a paddock,near Westall High school, and they still tried to cover it up.🤣Nearly 5,000 witnesses.
They did a pretty good job of it really. No photos, no vids and suppression of all adult’s testimonies at the time. From memory, a school teacher was threatened by ‘gov agents’ and only more recently provided his witness statement due to intimidation.
That is not fair, to cover it up. 5000 witnesses? But then to be silenced... That would make it far morre traumatic.
The whole town was drunk.
Wasn't the whole town it was a school.
The fact is - no one threatened witnesses, there is no need to do that as they are not iven humans anymore, they are all aliens now, that is why they refuse to talk about it. All 5000, women,children, omg it is so sad
My dad was a very experienced military pilot with thousands of flight hours and three combat tours flying both jets and helicopters. He told me he had never personally seen anything weird but knew plenty of aviator colleagues who had. This has been going on a while!
It's pretty much been happening for a century now, with us knowing it's UFOs, at least. Strange sightings that fit the description have been documented since at least the times of the Roman Empire.
There is the same percentage of schizophrenics among pilots as any other subgroup of humans.
Just hearsay
since the 50,s.. officially,, but, all thru our history, world wide.. cave paintings, drawings in egypt, india, ect.ect, all said to be ''religious symbols''.. bs.. there a painting, 12 th century,?.. of a ''sky war'', said to be '' abstract''.. bs.. dont believe in ufo,s.. watch viper tv sumerian tablets.. the ones here now, are not, our creators.. if your religious,,there no hope for you, religion is a scam.. watch praveen mohan vids.. all of them.. learn..
Some of the first photographs of the very early hot air balloon flights in France include other objects also in the sky at the same time, so yes it has been going on for a long time!
Thank you Leslie ❤
This was professionally done and handled well, really enjoying it
My wife's grandparents took the Time magazine photo in 1950 that couldn't be disproved in Oregon. I'm a scientist and have been hooked/researching it ever since hearing their story. The nearby town has a festival that mocks the sighting every year that originally started out as a tribute of their sighting. It's sad. This was a great video 👍
I think you are fibbing.
It's the truth....
I definitely believe you
The McMinville festival is full of UFO believers. My brother attends faithfully to hear speakers etc - not just for the FUN costumes and general joviality!
@@rhondacase7194 Excellent You provided credible corroboration I've been through McMinnville at least 20 times on my Oregon Coast bicycle trips I didn't know about the festival but was extremely aware of the famous McMinnville photo Observe that the OP made no mention of the city's name
How people don't see this as one of biggest stories ever is beyond me. Great stuff!
Huge pile of alien droppings.
Because it's old news actually. Anyone with half a brain that can think for themselves has known that these crafts have been with us from time immemorial. Just look at some of the old paintings by the master artists and all the megalithic structures around the world. Not to mention countless witnesses of sightings for years. So much evidence.
elfin1358 You have been watching too much Ancient Aliens. That garbage will rot your brain. And you have just admitted that you only have half a brain. Not to worry, you don’t need any brains to be in the ufo cult.
elfin1358 You can’t handle criticism.
Yet even after all that no actual proof except alien poo@@elfin1358
Back in the 60's my best friends dad was a former USAF Fighter Pilot and at the time a current Captain at TWA, he had a South American route Chile and Brazil. He and the South American pilots talked about these all the time, but was told to NEVER report any sighting inside the US or you'll end your career. South American pilots reported them routinely. If you reported them to the Airline or the Gov't you'd be sent for a mental health evaluation, a week later you're furloughed.
What a fantastic backyard video! And thank you for these tips. I’m in my late 40s and even with my partner these are good to know and do. I know I’m not quite a target audience, I still appreciate your video!
Standing Ovation w/ Honest Salute Leslie Kean! 💪🇵🇭🙏
I dont know why but i keep leslie kean and steven greer in same bucket.
I was flying air ambulance from Prescott AZ to Phoenix in the late evening Mar. 13, 1897 and observed the Vee-shaped ights on my visual approach. I was descending from 7000 ft. MSl and estimated the lights to be in the flight level. It was hard to estimate because the lights were easily across most of Phoenix class B airspace. I was and am exceedingly skeptical of alien and UFO fantasy--but I saw what I saw.
so you roll the shutters down on your eyes even when they are showing you the truth, "Bcoz skepticism herpa derpa"
*1897 dang you're old.*
So did you pass it on final approach?
Wow, they had air ambulance in 1897! Who knew.
Proof reading is important.
If it’s one thing JRE has taught me, it’s how to spot someone who’s selling a book rather than really trying to genuinely share information.
I seen almost the exact same thing here where I live and will never forget it!
I am an Uber driver here in Palm Springs California, in 2021 there was a pilot convention where pilots for national and international airlines came. The hotel where the convention was, it was only 2 miles from the airport, I did multiple rides from the convention to the airport and asked one pilot for a national airline, about 55 years old, if he had ever seen UFOs or things unexplainable while flying, he said he had and didnt know what those things were,but are real,too bad the ride was 2 miles, too short to have asked more questions.
Reflections in the sky, Its weather, They did a study in Mexico on it.
lol@@stratocasterblue
@@stratocasterblue😂😂😂😂 No that wasn’t it. You reply with ZERO knowledge.
So you know more than this alleged 55 year old pilot back in 2021 who allegedly flew a plane and doesn't have any idea what he even saw but according to you it was probably green aliens who came to earth to enlighten you on science is that it. Mr knowledge@@BuckyBarnesATL
@@stratocasterblue true same in 50 other countries
Soft disclosure has done wonders on the subject in the last couple of years. The fact that I can now talk to people (even my parents) about UFOs without being laughed at is wild. Something unexplainable is definitely happening and there has absolutely been a cover up. It's only a matter of time before millions of people around the world are vindicated, after a lifetime of ridicule.
'It's only a matter of time before millions of people around the world are vindicated, after a lifetime of ridicule.' == I've seen this promise yearly since the middle of the last century.
"Soft disclosure has done wonders on the subject in the last couple of years.

I think that is my new favorite video from National Geographic. I remember loving their magazines growing up.
Ditto !
Eyes on cinema is the best channel for historical documentation of ufo videos and events.

MS.Kean makes Brenda Star look like Strawberry Shortcake!!! A tough and tenacious journalist with a mission to expose government lies.for every one who has an interest in the subject of unknown objects in the skies above our country.. Good for you MS.Keam🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😇🇺🇸
How insane is that? Pilots, who are responsible for our safety, are ridiculed, shamed, denied employment or even ignored regarding their experience and the people responsible for our Safety, refused to take an account, acknowledge or even hear about it? How crazy is that? What's wrong with our system that we refuse to acknowledge what's real?
Zero evidence that any of this is real.
yep, because they need to control and manage how we see reality / our lives.
Think about this the next time you take a commercial flight some where. If you knew what they have seen would you be really want to be flying? It's all about GREED. The less people know the better for them.
Funny thing happened I think 1970s-80s. Pilots were reporting saucers and the gov't of all types were saying they were incompetent. So you had the gov't saying that people responsible for people and planes were incompetent. About the time I noticed it the gov't clammed up and stop the reporting. I guess even the gov't figured out that it was stupid to call pilots incompetent and then letting them be responsible for airplanes and people. Too Funny.
Very proud of Leslie and James and all those who supported them. ❤
I’ve seen 2. Both were so fast there was no way I could have taken a photo or video. Super cool. I’m a total believer.
Good job everybody and props to the NG crew and people who agreed to this.
The O'Hare airport employees knew what they saw and certainly were familiar with various aircraft and weather phenomenon.
EZ to be a skeptic if you've never seen/experienced anything the least-bit strange! My elderly pilot neighbor said in the late '50's he was flying from Miami to VZ. when a UFO flew next to him for 20 minutes. He reported it and upon landing the co-pilot, navigator & him were separated, de-briefed and told to never tell anyone what they had seen. In 2002 in the late aft. i was alone (and w/o a movie camera) when i saw a UFO near LANL, albeit at 25K feet. (what it did proved it was not a plane.) Then, 15 yrs. later, on a dark night, my friend and i saw 9 orange lights descend from a storm cloud, move erratically above houses across the st. from us, then disappear behind one. A neighbor also saw them, and told me he'd instantly closed the curtains, shut off the lights and went to bed. (he'd seen them once before; but was afraid to go out and investigate either time.) i finally reported both events to MUFON.
Safe to be a skeptic. Nothing to upset your illusion that you are at the center of the universe. Accepting aliens are all over the planet ruins your god like delusions.
The quality of the professionals in both the physics, theological, academic and aviation worlds is unrivaled in human history. The fact is that the right people are now doing the investigating. And the story also does a great job at not speculating about who "they" are or why "they" are here because no one knows that. The simple fact is that SOMETHING is moving around in the skies in our world and they've been doing it for a very long time. And in my opinion "they" were here long before we ever arrived on this planet and "they" have been watching us ever since we arrived.
Yet that elusive proof still awaits us.
@@stratocasterblue For right now, yes. Be patient.
You feel the need for an alternative to the god you have been given, Instead of fantasizing how about you start believing in you

Fly me high through the starry skies Or maybe to an astral plane Cross the highways of fantasy Help me to forget today's pain@@manhalen7046
Thanks all the people involved in this UFO investigation
I've seen two tictacs, about 30 years apart and in 2 different states. One in Seattle in the early 90s, hovering near the end of the Boeing runway, just sitting there in the air, no connection to anything. It vanished after about 30 minutes. Didn't fly off, just stopped being there. Also in fall of 2007 me and about five other people saw a tictac flying over Boise, Idaho, between the Boise Airport and the Air Force Base. It was cruising along in no great hurry, with two fighters following behind. There was no weird weather, it couldn't be a balloon and stay ahead of the fighters. It wasn't a satellite, it was perfectly smooth and reflecting the light like a shiny metal. It couldn't be any kind of meteor, there was no trail of burning dust.
if it was at the end of the BOEING part of the runway, then I am quite sure it was a Boeing PhantomWorks Tic-Tac drone project (i.e. Boeing's version of Lockheed Martin's SkunkWorks secret projects division!). It was LIKELY an electrostatics-based propulsion system test which doesn't need wings to fly and hover. Since it was probably PhantomWorks project, it also means it's likely part of a US Navy AUTEC SAP/CAP programme which may now be operationally based out of Whidbey Island, in Oregon or in Alaska! V

@@StarGateSG7 Saucers keep track of all of our and other country military operations. Boeing would be a target. The tictacs the navy has come upon are not from Boeing.
i've saw a couple in my lifetime, during the day, and one at night. i'm telling you, both experiences were less than 100 meters from me. nothing beats that feeling, i'll never forget how awestruck i was, both times.
😂😂😂
yep i had 2 come out of two clouds in west aust dessert. one stayed over our heads and asked DO YOU WANT TO GO at that time i said no and it shot off to the stars
well done Leslie, you and your mates are absolute star's. I think the gov is woried that we wont stand a chance against them. they may think when we realise this fact ,that's when the panic will really set in. too late! we already know.
Congratulation to the brave reported lady that tell the true. Deserve a world recognition for it
Thank you Nat Geo. This topic needs more attention brought to it.
Congratulations Dr. Kean. Your years of research have finally paid off. Opps, not a Phd? Well you certainly deserve a Phd for all your Research. I'm giving you an Honorary Doctorate for taking on a Gigantic Theory that our Government has not addressed. Thank you for bringing all the World together to acknowledge and begin collaborative research together. You have my respect :)
Dr. Kean can have my Ph.D...only $5.
Gov won't address it because its their stuff they want to keep secret so when needed we can surprise the enemy with it and the less they discuss it the more you make it into ufo's or something mystical and their secret is safe.
@@lifuranph.d.9440 With your name on it? No thanks.
Yo, NatGeo, you're killing this channel with the excessive frequency of ads!
Informative video.
I began investigating this topic in 1974 beginning the research with the Summerian period up until 1974 & from then until today and I'm almost 63 yrs. old. I became an experiencer of the third kind in 1995. I know we are not alone and have been visited and I'm not scared or freaking out! Welcome to the real world!
You need psychiatric help.
Okay, now you have to tell us about your contact.
I understand if you don’t want to talk about it. It’s a difficult thing to do.
incredible documentary. thank you
To anyone young or new to this topic, all this is very exciting....but when you have dived deep down this rabbit whole for _decades_ and a video like this pops up...a 'new' video...with not a SINGLE scrap of anything that is actually *new...* it's nothing but FRUSTRATING...
What upsets me is: I was abducted 1974 and I know more than those people will ever know; as I saw within inches of my face & experienced it for 10 hrs. yet no one wants to find out from an elderly such I am because we don't have a title of scientist, military, doctorate or whatever. They actually could learn so much more from us abductees than from those with book knowledge (educated).
I don’t feel that way. It’s a step in the right direction for National Geographic to make videos on this subject. It gives credibility to the subject. People trust them. Other sources aren’t taken as seriously.
@@maryshahbazi5996maybe let people ease into the fact that there are actually UFO’s before trying to convince them that there are alien beings. Trying to get them to accept that there are UFO’s will take time.
me too, South St Louis Play Grounds, a symbol on the bottom looked like the logo for " International Harvester " was 1981 it responded to a statement I had made ...
The fact that with a widespread usage of cellphone cameras number of UFO videos is not increasing is puzzling. Just an observation.
It’s not puzzling at all. It’s expected.
Two hundred million phones with 4K movie cameras in the USA alone, and no good video footage ever. Hmmmm.😂
@@rtroyer8963 Exactly my thinking.
It’s impossible that someone hasn’t gotten one good photo or video. The logical reason is that the “flying saucers” have never been here.
@@blueabattoir Look up the "Tic Tac UFO" which shows official US Airforce footage, radar data, and eye witness testimony recording an unknown flying object with maneuver capabilities we are not aware exist. Confirmed by Pentagon and also the US Defense Department website.
This was a big story here in Alaska. Took forever to get all the details and we still hear various versions of it. I have seen UFOs here in various areas of Alaska. I've also seen them in Montana.
NY and Antarctica. Maybe in Iraq to, but that could have been a drone.
@@UniteOrDie2024 I've heard of reports around Hudson Valley in NY. You were in Antarctica? Awesome!

I saw a craft twice in my life last time 1986 California. I told my husband, we were out walking the coastline neighborhood at Fort Ord Base outside of Monterey California
wow very interesting, and significant coming from national geographic
I've had 3 encounters all from the ground. The 3rd flew right up to top of trees and showed off what they could do before taking off fast with two f-18s trying to catch up. So the military had them on radar.
How interesting.
I saw Loc ness eat bigfoot in a crop circle
Great documentary! Keep ‘em coming
Ha ha, documentary?
@@blueabattoiryes. Documentary. Ever heard of those? This one specifically is a multi episode documentary available on Hulu. Pay attention, you might learn something.
I would love to hear your experience and feelings afterward. My CE3 experience at 12 has lead me on a lifelong search for the who, what, when, where and why of this universe, I just don't have anyone to share it with. Being an experiencer is lonely sometimes.
If the encounter doesn't cause you any problems, be thankful. Good luck.
I saw a very huge duplicate of a cloud moving exactly like reflecting the clouds below it, but it was just circular pattern.... maybe wind was responsible for it, but it really seemed more of a huge circular mirror in the sky.
Bob lazar been warning us.
Bob lazar has already been proven to be a dud and fake.
That nutcase is off his Fenty😊
That dude done way too much fenty…😊
Please....
There is no evidence that what he has been saying is true either.
A breath of fresh air from National Geographic! ❤
Despite the long association with the Intelligence Community ?
A strong whiff of Alien Droppings!
I thought this was going to be another fluff piece. It actually turned out to be pretty good...👏🏼
By the looks of it, a lot of us have seen something we know it's not human technology. I saw a light in the sky moving at a crazy speed, then it sopped for a second and then took off towards the oposite direction and disappeared. I was 12 and will never forget that.
National Geographic uploading this is actually mind blowing. Crazy that this is real
Yeah. Nat Geo used to have pretty good credibility. Now they compete with the History Channel pushing pseudoscience.
But it's not real in any way. Pure fantasy.
More and more of us are seeing them, we are not alone never have been but we are destroying life on this planet alongside ourselves.
What you think of the recent surge of 'space spirals'? Why can't they just be ejecta from human rockets?
get a better camera
Hence why we are reaching for the stars amigo, nothing lasts forever.😊
As long as humans destroy themselves the rest of life will flourish just fine 😔
Exactly, which certainly should be screaming the question, can they help us right the ship? The answer is yes, but it remains to be seen when, how, etc.
The global threat is sitting in front of their computer reading this post.
Leslie, you're a hero.
Hardly
I’ve been interested in this subject for many years. I’m stoked to see this!🤘
Thank you, Ms.. Kean, for your brilliant journalism and for your brave search for the truth. Your determination is awe-inspiring.
Yes I agree ms.kean did very good job but the whole thing was a little confused about it and then I was thinking about the time and time that dinosaur was going to make a ugly documentary on the evolution of dinosaur into advanced speces
@@LindseyfromgraniteYour comment is confusing
@@Joytous basically basically a good one to start watching it either way
@@Joytousafter three martinis you can read it
This happened 7 years ago, i was in 6th grade and my finals were going on. I woke up early that day and i was studying. Around 6am in the morning I saw a large, triangular shaped object flying in circles over my neighbours yard. We were living in a flat back then,on the 4th floor and my neighbour had a huge yard. The object was flying real low. I went to the balcony and i could clearly see it, i stood there for a while until i went and called my dad, he got up and i ran back towards the balcony. We both saw it flying in hige circles and after a while it just went straight up.

The reason US doesn't take UFO seriously is because they are cooperating with the aliens for advance technology.
@HuiChyr....US could even own one of the UFO.. I'm not afraid of it.
Facts
Or more likely they are afraid of them. You don't maintain an above top secret attitude about weather anomalies.
Last thing to mention. The Chicago ohare incident had a video it was on youtube for maybe two days. You saw it shoot up in the clouds and leave a hole. That video was taken down exactly 24-48 hrs.
I have a copy of the ORIGINAL but I wasn't all that impressed with it. Typical BLURFO .....BUT.... I kinda know WHY that happens due to frame rate issues, shutter speed issues and camera movement issues. There is also usually a type of optical distortion field around the craft which affects camera optics depending whether the propulsion system is electrostatics-based or gravitationally-based (i.e. a set of GWASERs) An acquaintance has a few CLEAR photos of the MASSIVE discoid craft of the December 11, 1996 Yukon sighting which was a 2 miles (3 km) in diameter mothership! Hard to miss that one since it was so big. Quite a few witnesses saw the Yukon craft from the highway but only about five photos were taken since they were actual FILM-based cameras and NOT instantly-ready smartphone/digital cameras! It was DEFINITELY NOT the light decay pattern of a Russian space launch either! You can CLEARLY SEE the massive shape and size of the UFO along with the large windows. One photo was so closeup and in-focus that you could see a group of "humanoid beings" observing the people stopped on the highway from a massively-sized obervation window that had to be many tens of meters along each 2D-XY length! Interestingly, this specific craft had NO atmospheric distortion field around it which means it was using a more unusual propulsion technology while in-atmosphere than the "more normal" electrostatics or gravitational propulsion systems!

I was driving yesterday early dark morning I looked up in the sky and what appeared to be a light drop straight down from the sky! As soon as I looked it went down as if it didn’t want me to see it, but my daughter seen the same thing twice about 2 months earlier while driving on the expressway!
You guys should do a series on ufo sightings by state.
They tried that it got shut down
@@LindseyfromgraniteShut down?! What about freedom of speech? Freedom of press? 😂 Seems pretty messed up.
And throughout the world
I couldn’t have believed UFOs if I haven’t seen unexplainable lights in the night sky in my college first year that I understand more now. What still amazes me is the speed and size of it.
same! ive seen a sor of green meteor flying 20X the speed of a regular jet, and it was greren! me asnd other guy saw it! i was 14 and didnty have a cellphone with a good camera with me, but i watched it till it desapered in the hotizon, it was afternoon btw! still daylight!
I seen one when I was younger. It was very fast and looked to be a quick up n down effect.
My father used to build the parts for these things. Even William Lyne showed one of the parts he found in a scrap yard. These things are easy to build the technology is more simple than a toaster.
Great show!
This is NatGeo most successful video to date in terms of views within 5 days of upload.
Alien droppings are very popular these days.
Thank you. Did not know. It is telling in it of itself; humanity has seen and "thay" (World Govt.)? is afraid that the technology they have stolen will become known and monopoly broken.
I believe it because I saw it. Clear Sunny almost Cloudless Sky over Furnace Creek Ranch, Death Valley National Park, California in the mid 1980s.
In the Las Vegas, NV suburbs (DI & Eastern Av.) I observed a very strange object as it flew in front of me and continued across the neighborhoods. It had a box shape about the size of a large car but resembled a small cloud. An incredible disguise that didn't seem to be catching anyone else's attention.
Great documentary!!
