- [Narrator] We are all familiar with UFOs,
Unidentified Flying Objects.
But there is another phenomenon just as intriguing.
Unidentified Submersible Objects.
These are UFOs that appeared to be able to travel,
not only in our skies, but in our waters as well.
It is a growing phenomenon with no explanations so far.
Are they from outer space, another dimension,
or a civilization living among us now,
hidden from us under the canopy of our own oceans?
[suspenseful music]
Though USO sightings have recently reached
the mainstream media, they are nothing new.
Recorded, modern sightings, go back to World War II,
and ancient sightings, even further.
Our USO or Unidentified Submersible Object,
is an object that can operate not only within our skies,
but within our oceans, seas and even lakes of our world.
These objects are often associated with UFO sightings,
or they are UFOs that can enter the water, travel submerged
and then fly out of the water and back into the sky.
A craft with such capabilities has never been invented
by any one or nation on earth.
[upbeat music]
Of course we have submarines, but they cannot fly
and we have flying craft, but they cannot submerge.
This characteristic alone makes USOs very intriguing.
A craft that can fly in our skies
with no discernible propulsion system,
then enter the water and maneuver at a high speed
and with little and no fluid resistance,
would make a formidable weapons platform.
And so the U.S military is very interested in them.
[upbeat music]
Multiple questions arise with these objects.
What are they?
Where do they come from?
Who was operating them?
And can they be captured or destroyed?
The latter question may seem mute.
No USO so far has posed a threat to any
of our underwater craft, but that doesn't mean
they can't become a threat, or if they are observing
our Naval operations, then the U.S Navy
would like to be able to remove them
from any military theater they may be working in.
[upbeat music]
If we address the first question, what are they?
There are very few explanations.
The quick answer is they are some kind of drone,
operated by some nation state here on earth.
This is not likely, because most drones used
by all militaries are propeller driven.
They fly like helicopters or airplanes
and cannot enter the water and operate the same way.
Or they have jet propulsion and fly like
any conventional jet in the air.
And they also cannot enter the water.
In fact, the reported maneuvering capabilities
of these USO craft, defy any known system of propulsion
we humans have been been at so far.
They have no exhaust, move without making any sound,
make quick course changes that a man could not endure
and seemingly can move at speeds beyond our aircraft
and submarines both in the air and underwater.
[upbeat music]
A craft with these abilities could easily operate
within the vacuum of space as well.
[upbeat music]
The truth is, we have no idea what they are,
and that is a concern for our government and military.
These craft operate with impunity, within our airspace,
as well as our oceans, seas and waterways.
Because of this, our Navy and other military agencies,
have taken a great interest in them.
The question we face is simple.
If we didn't build them, then who did?
[suspenseful music]
First, let's answer one common theory,
that they are optical illusions
or some kind of natural illusionary phenomenon.
This is not the case.
They have been tracked on radar and sonar.
Only actual physical objects will reflect
these scanning devices.
[suspenseful music]
They have been photographed in detail
and they interact with the environment they are moving in,
such as the air and water.
If they enter the water, there's a splash.
If they move through a cloud, they displaced the gas.
If they land, they leave landing marks.
They are real physical objects of substance and mass.
So if we didn't build them, who did?
[suspenseful music]
Unfortunately, we can't answer the question definitively.
However, we can rule off the usual suspects.
Intelligence agencies worldwide will tell you
that no nation on the earth has invented
or is testing any craft with the capabilities of USOs.
None, not one.
As far as we know, no inventor or person
has built a craft, tested a craft, or is currently seeking
a patent on any craft that has the abilities of USOs.
Plus the facilities whereby any such craft
could be constructed, tested and launched from,
would easily be detected by our intelligence agencies.
It would have to be a very well kept secret,
and secrets are rarely well kept.
Someone, somewhere would have talked about it.
This brings us back to the original question.
If we didn't build them, who did?
The answer is simple and obvious.
These craft belonged to someone else,
that simple question, someone else,
has been the biggest question mankind has faced,
since the dawn of time.
Are we alone?
It would appear, we are not.
[upbeat music]
Throughout the 1980s and 90s, there were rumors
that America had stealth aircraft.
It was a military secret and was denied at all levels
of the government.
But when 911 and the war with Iraq occurred,
the F115 was revealed.
We used them, we didn't sit on them
and continue to deny their existence.
We touted and even boasted about our stealth capabilities.
They were deployed in Iraq, Afghanistan,
and other theaters of operation.
Other militaries knew we had them,
but the public only became aware when we use them openly.
If any government had craft with the capabilities
of UFOs and USOs, they would use them too.
They would have appeared in operation somewhere in the world
and even boasted by the nation who constructed them.
Secret aircraft only exist until they can be put
into a military theater.
After that, they are well-known.
After years of observation and detection of UFOs
and USOs, with countless opportunities to use them
in a war situation, no nation has come forward
to claim or boast about having this kind of capability.
Not one.
In fact, foreign militaries are as baffled at these craft,
as we are.
America is not the only nation to have tangled with USOs
and reported them.
As recent as 2009, the Russian Navy declassified
its records of cold war UFO sightings.
Their research shows about 50% of UFO encounters
are connected with oceans, 15% more with lakes.
"So UFOs tend to stick to the water."
One Russian officer explained.
One Russian military official said, "On several occasions,
the instruments gave reading of material objects,
moving at incredible speed."
A sub commander recalled, "Calculations showed speeds
of about 230 knots."
Speeding so fast is a challenge, even on the surface.
But water resistance is much higher.
It was like the objects defied the laws of physics.
There's only one explanation.
The creatures who built them, far surpass us in development.
[suspenseful music]
In one incident in 1982,
3 Navy diver trainers reportedly died,
pursuing what survivors described
as a group of humanoid creatures dressed in silvery suits,
in Baikal, the world's deepest lake.
Of course, the United States Navy has tangled with USOs
on many occasions.
Leaked military radar readings seen for the first time
in 2021, backed up reports of Unidentified Flying Objects,
harassing a Navy ship off the coast of California.
As the Pentagon was preparing to tell Congress
what they know about UFO sightings.
The sounds of U.S Navy sailors,
reacting to a radar screen tracking UFOs flying around
their ship in July, 2019, can be heard
as the radar lights up with nine different objects
that then disappear into the night,
off the coast of San Diego.
The radar readings followed leaked video,
released by documentary filmmaker, Jeremy Corbell
that shows objects captured on night vision
and infrared video, that appeared to be swarming
around warships, before disappearing.
Corbell said, "The disappearing objects
could have gone above or below radar range.
If they were moving below the radar,
it would mean that they went into the water."
Corbell also released a video earlier,
showing a flying sphere dropping into the ocean.
A Pentagon spokesman confirmed to NBC news,
the radar videos were taken by Navy personnel,
but wouldn't comment about how they were released.
The Pentagon has declassified the footage.
"They want to be ahead of it, and they are out of options,"
Corbell said.
"There is a lot of pressure by the global public
and the American public for answers."
Then in a stunning interview, former President,
Barack Obama, added to the intrigue
when he told late night host James Corden,
that he inquired about UFOs during his tenure.
"There's footage and records of objects in the skies
that we don't know exactly what they are," Obama said.
"We can't explain how they move their trajectory.
They did not have an easily explainable path."
Two former Navy pilots also spoke on 60 Minutes that month,
about seeing objects that appeared to be flying
at supersonic speeds, without breaking the sound barrier.
[upbeat music]
While UFOs have become synonymous with aliens
in pop culture, in the military context,
it just means they can not be identified
as any type of aircraft.
There has been debate over whether they could be drones
from Russia and China, which have all invested heavily
in advanced drone technology.
"There's enough obvious evidence here
that we need to take this seriously, not downplay it
and trying to gather as much information as we can,
to figure out what it is these pilots are seeing,
and what does it mean."
Said democratic Senator Martin Heinrich, of New Mexico.
But USOs are not new, there are countless reports,
dating back to antiquity, and within modern times,
of submerged objects.
[intense music]
On the 19th of April, 1957, crew members aboard
a Japanese fishing boat, spotted two metallic,
silvery objects, descending from the sky into the sea.
The objects estimated to be 10 meters long,
were without wings of any kind.
As they hit the water, they created a violent turbulence.
This is an incident that reportedly took place
off the coast of Puerto Rico in 1963,
during an anti-submarine warfare exercise from the USS Wasp.
The maneuvers were conducted off Puerto Rico
in the Atlantic, some 500 miles Southeast
of the continental United States.
All reports seem to agree that there were five,
small Naval vessels concerned, but in more than one account,
the aircraft carrier, Wasp, is stated
to have been the command ship, a sonar operator
on one of the destroyers, reported to his bridge
that one of the submarines had broken formation
and gone off in what appeared to be pursuit
of some unknown object.
The operator did not of course, know if this was a plant,
since the maneuvers were engaged in exercises designed
to train personnel in detection of enemy craft.
However, this operator's report was not all
within the limits of any such simulation.
The problem was the object was traveling at over 150 knots,
no less than 13 craft, including anti-submarine,
warfare patrol aircraft tracked
the high speed unknown object.
Furthermore, technicians kept track of this object
for four days and that it maneuvered roundabout
and to depths of 27,000 feet.
One report logged in April, 2019,
states that an object resembling a small white boat,
flew up out of the water near Imperial Beach, California
at about 500 feet.
The object promptly flew South at a very high rate of speed.
[upbeat music]
Japan has a famous encounter that incurred in the 1800s.
Urobune was an unknown object that allegedly washed ashore
in 1803, in Hitachi province on the Eastern coast of Japan.
According to legend, an attractive young woman,
aged 18 to 20 years old, arrived on a local beach
aboard a hollow ship, in February of 1803.
Fishermen brought her inland to investigate further,
but the woman was unable to communicate in Japanese.
She was very different from anyone else there.
The fishermen then returned her and her vessel to the sea,
where it drifted away.
UFO-Hitachi have claimed that the story represents evidence
of a close encounter with an extra terrestrial life.
According to the report, on February 22nd, 1803,
local fishers in the Hitachi province,
saw an ominous ship drifting in the waters.
Curious, they towed the vessel back to land,
discovering that it was 10 feet high and 17 feet wide.
Its upper part appeared to be made of red coated rosewood,
while the lower part was covered with brazen plates,
obviously to protect it against the sharp edged rocks.
The upper part had several windows made of glass
or crystal, covered with bars and clothed
with some kind of tree resin.
The shape of the hollow boat, resembled a wooden rice pit.
The windows were completely transparent
and the baffled fishermen looked inside.
The inner side of the Utsuro-bune,
was decorated with texts written in an unknown language.
The fishermen found items inside, such as two bedsheets,
a bottle filled with water, some cake and kneaded meat.
Then the fishermen saw a beautiful young woman,
possibly 18 or 20 years old.
Her body was said to be about four feet tall.
The woman had red hair and eyebrows.
The hair elongated by artificial white extensions.
The extensions could have been made of white fur,
or thin, white powdered textile streaks.
This hairstyle can not be found in any literature.
The skin of the lady was a very pale, pink color.
She wore precious long and smooth clothes
of unknown fabrics.
The woman began speaking, but no one understood her.
She didn't seem to understand the fishermen either.
So no one could ask her about her origin.
Although the mysterious woman appeared friendly
and courteous, she acted oddly.
For she always clustered a rectangular box
made of a pale material and around 24 inches in size.
The woman didn't allow anyone to touch the box,
no matter how kindly or pressingly the witnesses asked.
In UFO-ology, the legend of the Utsuro-bune,
has been described as an early case
of a documented close encounter of the third kind,
based on the similarities between the drawings of the vessel
from the Edo period and 20th century description
of flying saucers.
Some UFO-ologists suggest the Utsuro-bune,
could have been an Unidentified Submarine Object, USO.
They noted the mysterious symbols were reportedly found
on the object, that regularly appear as a Dendu,
within the depictions.
They are suggested by some, to be similar
to the symbols reported at the Rendlesham forest incident
in England, which was experienced
by the United States Air Force.
The same writing is also found in caves.
Caves also show many drawings of odd figures,
along the symbols.
UFO proponents further point to the ominous box,
held by the woman as well, as her physical appearance
and unusual dress,
as evidence of an extra terrestrial encounter.
[suspenseful music]
Researchers of Unidentified Flying Objects,
believe the black and white images supposedly taken
from the USS Trepang SSN 674 submarine, in March, 1971,
are evidence of secret U.S aircraft tests,
or alien lifeforms looking to carry out
an early form of fracking.
Alex Mistretta, a paranormal investigator and author,
investigated the images after they first appeared
in a French paranormal magazine, Top Secret,
following an alleged leak.
He claimed insiders told him the pictures
were taken from the USS submarine on its journey
between Iceland and Norway's Jan Mayen island,
in the Atlantic ocean, with the Admiral on board
at the time, said to be Dean Reynolds.
Top Secret described an inscription on one of the pictures,
as stating, "Official photograph, not to be released, CT."
Another read, "Unauthorized disclosure subject,
SSN 674, criminal sanction."
According to the U.S Naval archive, the USS Trepang
was in the area at the time and a rear Admiral,
Dean Reynolds Sackett Jr, from Beatrice, Nebraska,
was its Commanding Officer, from August, 1970,
to December, 1973.
Some researchers have claimed this proves the pictures
are genuine, but others suggested the information
is so readily available, it also could have aided a hoaxer.
Others said that one of the claimed UFOs,
looked like the man-made Aereon 26,
a U.S experimental aircraft that was part airship
and part conventional aircraft
and powered by a piston engine, which was tested in 1971.
Michael Waters said, "Some UFOs can function through
and underwater quite well."
And Rob Whiteford added, "Make sense.
I can still put money on fracking connected to them."
Nigel Watson, UK UFO investigator said,
"They are an odd selection of pictures,
that feature types of UFOs that have been regularly spotted
by witnesses in all parts of the world.
This batch of pictures backs up such claims,
but I'm not sure about their authenticity."
They have certainly got UFO researchers scratching
their heads and wondering and speculating
that UFOs have a base in the Arctic regions.
[dramatic music]
A huge flying object was reportedly seen rising
from the sea in the Gulf of Mexico
and recorded by an anonymous source in 2017.
According to an alien UFO hunter,
it was in the Gulf of Mexico, located 80 miles Southeast
of New Orleans.
This flying object was seen
by an offshore supply vessels crew member.
The chief engineer of the OSV,
stated that the mysterious craft,
was five times larger than the vessel he was on.
The object reportedly rose out of the sea
to a height of 40 feet, and then vanished.
"At close to 7:00 PM on March 21st, just before dusk,
myself and four of the crew members aboard our vessel,
saw a craft that appeared to be five times,
our 240 foot vessel in length," the witness said.
"My line of sight was about one fourth mile from our vessel.
There was a rig behind the craft about a half a mile away.
I used this to help gauge the size of the craft," he added.
According to his statement, the underwater UFO
was visible for just 40 seconds.
The strange thing was that despite the craft rising
out of the water, there was no sign of any water dripping
off of it.
The UFO vanished at a phenomenal pace,
at an angle of 30 degrees, the chief engineer revealed.
"There were more than 50 more people present
on nearby vessels who might have also seen
this mysterious flying object," the source stated.
N-U-F-O-R-C requested any other witnesses to come forward
and contact them.
Such capabilities have our Navy intrigued to say the least.
Any craft with this ability would be a formidable weapon
and would be essential to a surprise attack.
[suspenseful music]
[upbeat music]
Congress in 2021, require the Director
of National Intelligence, to summarize and report
on the U.S government's knowledge
of unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs,
better known to the public as Unidentified Flying Objects,
or UFOs.
The effort included a defense department, UAP task force,
established in the previous year.
The public release of an unclassified version of the report,
amounts to a status report, not defined a word,
according to one official.
Investigators found no evidence the sightings are linked
to aliens, but can't deny a link either.
Two officials briefed on the reports,
say the U.S government cannot give a definitive explanation
of aerial phenomena, spotted by military pilots.
This includes USOs.
The report also doesn't rule out that what pilots have seen
may be new technologies developed by other countries.
One of the officials said there is no indication
the unexplained phenomenon are from secret U.S programs.
This creates something of a quandary for military
and public officials, they cannot link the phenomenon
to aliens, but cannot deny it either.
And they have no evidence that the phenomenon
is from a U.S secret program, or foreign technology.
Basically this report brings us back
to our original questions.
Where are they from and who was building them?
Our original logical conclusion remains.
If we didn't build them, then someone else did.
[suspenseful music]
You would think the defense department
would reach the same simple conclusion.
The Pentagon and Central Intelligence Agency
have for decades, logged into reports of aircraft
or other objects in the sky, flying at inexplicable speeds
or trajectories.
The U.S government takes
unidentified aerial phenomenon seriously,
given the potential national security risk
or an adversary flying novel technology over a Navy base
or another sensitive site, or the prospect of a Russian
or Chinese development exceeding current U.S capabilities.
This also is seen by the U.S military as a security
and safety issue, given that in many cases,
the pilots who reported seeing unexplained aerial phenomena,
were conducting combat training flights.
This report did do one important thing, which is,
it opened the door to further investigations.
The subject is now out of the denial bag and in the open.
Congress, the Pentagon and the public,
now take the issue seriously.
In fact, the Defense Department has said,
"It is not game over.
There will be continued investigations of all reports
that come in from military personnel."
Perhaps we are seeing a new beginning of openness,
toward the phenomenon.
And at some time when everyone is comfortable with it,
a true disclosure will be forthcoming.
[smooth upbeat music]
[suspenseful music]
One theory that has specific in the modern age of UFO study,
and their relationship to water,
is that there may be underwater USO bases,
located in various places around the world.
The theory has always been that aliens from outer space
have built and maintain these hidden bases,
in order to monitor us.
But recently, a new theory has emerged
with one central question.
What if the USOs often seen emerging from
and entering into the earth oceans
are not from alien space at all?
What if they are actually from our oceans?
Could a parallel civilization of intelligent beings,
not from space, but from within our planet,
be using our oceans and seas to enter and return
to their civilization, either on the ocean bottom,
or even within our earth?
There is some evidence for this.
UFOs have been seen many times in and around volcanoes
and even entering them.
Stories of underground bases have persisted for decades
and given there are depths of our oceans
that we have never seen and cannot reach,
could hide many such entrances to a world within our earth.
The hollow earth theory can be traced back to ancient times.
The concept of a subterranean land inside the earth,
appeared in mythology, folklore, and legends.
The idea of subterranean realms seem arguable
and became intertwined with the concept of places of origin
or afterlife, such as the Greek underworld,
Nordic tradition, the Christian hell and the Jewish sheol.
The idea of the subterranean realm is also mentioned
in a Tibetan Buddhist belief.
According to one story from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition,
there is an ancient city called Shambala,
which is located inside the earth.
A book by Dr. Raymond Bernard, which appeared in 1964,
"The Hollow Earth," exemplifies the idea
of UFOs coming from inside the earth.
And as the idea that the ring Nebula provides
the existence of hollow worlds, as well as speculation
on the fate of Atlantis and the origin of flying saucers.
Hollow earth proponents have claimed
a number of different locations for the entrances,
which lead inside the earth,
other than the North and South poles,
unidentified structures under the ocean have been found
and documented.
Though we have no idea if they are ancient or modern,
nor if they are remnants of our ancient times
or some other civilization.
It's interesting to entertain these ideas,
but theories and fantasies do not get us closer
to the truth of USOs.
Perhaps the only way we will ever truly know
what they are and where they come from would be
to shoot one down or torpedo one in the oceans.
[ominous music]
[suspenseful music]
For 100 years, strange activity has been occurring,
off the Southern California coast.
Mile four mile, this area is one of the top producers
of USOs in the world.
The waters around Catalina have long been a hotbed
of UFO reports, making it a central location
for the study of UFO enthusiasts.
Skeptics often chalk these accounts up to the large presence
of military activity in the area,
including some very high tech action,
or just plain imagination.
On July 8th, 1947, the very same day
that the Roswell's Daily Record was reporting
the initial flying disc story,
a remarkable incident reportedly occurred
in the skies above Avalon.
An article on the front page of the week's issue
of the Catalina Islander, details an alleged sighting
by three visiting army veterans, of six flying disks,
traveling at high speed from the Northeast
and passing directly over Avalon before disappearing
over east peak.
According to the story, the six discs appeared about 1:00 PM
and flew in formation of two sets of three
and were witnessed not only by the veterans,
but by hundreds of others as well.
Alvio Russo, one of the reported witnesses
and an Army Air Corps veteran
who had flown 35 bombing missions over Germany,
with the Eighth Air Force estimated the velocity
of the disks, at 850 miles an hour, according to the story.
Bob Joan, listed as a former aerial photographer,
agreed with this estimate and said they were flying roughly,
as fast as the U.S Navy's Tiny Tim rocket,
which he had photographed numerous times for the Navy.
In the coming months, the sightings of disks
around the nation waned, at least for the time being
and public interest in them faded as well.
Even the Roswell incident was largely forgotten,
until 30 years later, when famed UFO-ologist,
Stanton Friedman began fielding what he claimed
were eye witness reports from civilian
and military personnel of real flying saucer wreckage
and alien bodies.
No mention of the Catalina incident was ever made again
in the Catalina Islander, nor apparently
in the Los Angeles Examiner.
[suspenseful music]
A little more than six miles off the coast of Point Dume
in Malibu, California, an unusual looking structure,
sits on the seabed floor.
Based on images obtained on Google Earth,
the oval shaped object has a huge flat top
and what appears to be pillars, are columns that seem
to reveal the entrance to a darker, inner place.
The anomaly is approximately 2000 feet below
the surface of the water, measuring nearly three miles wide.
What exactly is this thing?
According to the website
of a California based radio program, "Fade To Black,"
this may be the holy grail of unidentified submerged objects
that researchers have been looking for, the last 40 years.
Geologists believe it is nothing more than a natural shelf
on the ocean floor.
In the end, we're left with a variety of theories
to explain the Malibu anomaly, AKA Sycamore Knoll.
Will the UFO alien underwater base proponents
be eventually proven, right, leaving geologists in the dust,
scratching their heads and wondering how they got it wrong?
[dramatic music]
Filmmaker and UFO enthusiast, Jerry Corbell released footage
that appears to show an Unidentified Flying Object or a UFO,
disappearing into the water of California.
The footage was captured by the U.S Navy,
off the coast of San Diego in July, 2019.
It appears to show a dark spherical object
as seen by an infrared camera, flying over the ocean.
Military personnel can be heard saying,
it's splashed in the video, just as the optic appears
to vanish into the water.
The United States department of defense has confirmed
that the video was recorded by military personnel
and was reviewed by the Pentagon's,
Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force.
A program established in 2020, to gain insight
into the nature and origins
of Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon.
The UFO appeared to be transmedium capable,
meaning it is capable of traveling through both air
and water.
It is noted in intelligence reports that the spherical craft
could not be found upon entry into the water.
That a submarine was used in the search
and recovered nothing.
The footage was recorded on July 15th, 2019
by Navy personnel aboard the USS Omaha.
During the summer of 2019,
the Navy reported several sightings
of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena,
the Pentagon's term for UFOs.
The USS Omaha was one of several vessels
that observed unexplained, aerial phenomena,
close to the coast of California.
This is one of the latest USO sightings,
but USO reports go back decades.
If some foreign power had developed
this capability long ago, it would have already shown up
in military campaigns.
In the now famous 1973, UFO abduction of Charles Hickson
and Calvin Parker on the banks of the Pascagoula river,
new witnesses have come forward in recent years.
Maria Blair was across the river while the abduction
was happening.
She and her husband observed the blue UFO
while it was on the ground.
She also observed what appeared to be an alien,
swimming along a pier on her side of the river.
The being was described much like Calvin's description
of the ones who took Charlie and him.
Then about a month later, on the night of November 6th,
1973, just off the coast of Pascagoula,
between the ship canal and Round island,
a group of local fishermen, including brothers Ramy
and Raymond Ryan, their sons, and several others,
went out fishing under a clear, moonless sky.
While anchored in shallow water Ramy Ryan spotted
an unknown object in the water,
which appeared to be about five feet in diameter
and emitting an odd amber light.
The fishermen tried to poke the object with an oar,
but when he did, the light would dim
and the object would move a few feet away and stop.
At that point, the light would brighten again.
Concerned, two of the fishermen went to
the local coast guard station at 9:30 PM.
The coast guard later reported
that the two men appeared sober
and extremely concerned about the object.
Boats and Mates Nations and Crews were sent to investigate,
arriving in just a few minutes.
The coast guard personnel immediately located
what they reported as a bright metallic object,
moving at four to six knots with an amber beam,
about five inches in diameter.
They also observed as the fishermen had,
that the object went dark, changed course,
and then re-illuminated itself.
Boat Nations and Crews stated,
they had never seen anything like it.
Then the object vanished.
Returning in the daylight, coast guard personnel
were unable to find anything else unusual.
Following up on the incident, the U.S Navy,
apparently concerned with the proximity
of the Navy's nuclear ship building activity in the area,
dispatched Lieutenant Commander, Craig Dorman,
a Navy seal and another officer,
from the Naval Research and Development Laboratory
in Panama city, Florida, to investigate the incident.
Based on their interviews of the civilian
and military witnesses, the Navy concluded
that at least nine people saw an undetermined light source.
The light source was inconsistent with known marine life,
or with any uncontrolled manmade object.
And the objects present seemed to influence the number
of fish caught in the area.
While the Pascagoula UFO abduction story
received worldwide attention and has been the subject
of numerous books and articles,
the USO incident hardly made any waves.
Although a few regional newspapers reported the event.
Unlike the UFO abduction incident however,
the coast guard and Navy appeared to pay close attention
and conducted a serious investigation.
The nature of the mysterious underwater object
and the source of the light remained unexplained.
[upbeat music]
For decades, the media and public have looked
to the air force, for an explanation of UFO and USO reports,
with little or no feedback.
We have found however, that it is the U.S Navy
that has continued to investigate
and take the phenomenon seriously,
probably due to numerous USO sightings that have occurred
by Navy personnel over the years.
The Navy like any other military organization,
is compartmentalized and therefore not all UFO
and USO reports go to the same places.
There is no central department that studies
and examines USO reports.
So many of these encounters are filed away
in some department that may or may not even exist anymore.
This is troubling because it makes it difficult
to garner and look at all reports since the Navy
has been in existence.
There are probably countless sightings
and incidents we may never know about.
Add to this, the secrecy all militaries have,
regarding anything they are tasked to study.
These reports get filed a way where few,
if any, can see them.
Recently, the Pentagon has begun to take UFO
and USO encounters seriously.
And they have been allowing some reports
as well as video evidence to be published.
Navy personnel, both active and retired
are now speaking out on the subject.
President Obama has made public comments on the subject,
as well as President Trump.
The issue is now regarded as a bipartisan issue,
with both sides of Congress taking an active interest
in finding out what these objects are.
After all, they are in our waters and skies
and could interfere with our airspace and Naval operations.
One thing is very clear, UFOs appeared to have
a keen interest in water, as well as our military
and nuclear facilities.
Most UFO sightings occur near water or areas surrounded
by water.
This can raise the question that water could be
an important part of their technology.
Water may be a component to their propulsion,
or a way they recharge their craft.
Cold fusion is a type of technology
that uses water to generate energy.
It's possible that whoever is operating these craft,
have discovered a way to make cold fusion work.
So far, we haven't.
Since our planet is 75% water,
we would be a very interesting and necessary place to visit.
Everything you need to power your craft
is here in abundance.
It would make sense that they would use our planet
as a kind of gas station along the way.
This may explain why UFOs and USOs are often sighted,
but don't remain long.
We simply would be a pit stop along some space way
to other destinations.
A place to pop in, fuel up, and leave quickly and quietly.
If this is the case, it would explain
the countless sightings and encounters,
since recorded history.
And the few times anyone has actually seen the aliens.
The aliens may have little to no interest
in the indigenous lifeforms here, choosing rather
to just gas up and go on to their destination.
And when we do encounter them,
they seem oddly interested in us, but not to a point
where they want to actually interact with us
on any consistent level.
Plus, since we have large bodies of water
all over the planet, taking some energy from it
may not be considered improper, after all, we have plenty.
Water may recharge itself, so taking some
would not be stealing from us.
Of course with our current political and social mindset,
if we knew this is why they come here,
we would probably charge them for it.
Something else they may want to avoid.

[dramatic music]
Each year there are hundreds of UFO sightings,
many of which near, or even in the water.
UFOs and USOs do have water in common.
Their craft appear to be designed to travel in space,
the air and water with ease.
There is no way to know exactly who was operating
these craft, short of an incident
where they make themselves known to us on a global scale.
Even if all the intelligence agencies worldwide,
released what they know from the study of these objects,
we still would be no closer to actually interacting
with them, unless they choose to.
Disclosure will likely not come from some government agency,
but rather from the people using these craft on our planet.
[dramatic music]
We will continue to study, report, and be fascinated by UFOs
and USOs and hope that one day they decide it's time
to openly meet us.
Until then, it's up to them.
