The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch: TERRIFYING UFO ENCOUNTERS CAUGHT ON TAPE (Top Moments of Season 3)

What is that and it’s got a black dot in the center of it? The reality of the phenomenon has become even more compelling. What on Earth is that? It leaves a trail behind it as it goes. It exploded. Oh my God!

I’m Dr. Travis Taylor, astrophysicist, aerospace engineer, and an optical scientist with over 30 years of experience working with NASA and the Department of Defense. In 2021, when our own government acknowledged that unidentified aerial phenomena are real, it was no surprise to see how the media, the public, and Congress wanted answers.

Right now, I’m headed back to a place called Skinwalker Ranch to rejoin the team as we begin our third year investigating a number of unexplained phenomena. Well, looks like they’re here. I can’t wait to get this investigation underway. It’s good to see everyone assembled. Interrupt—um, I’m getting some unusual air traffic. I want to go check it out inside. We’ll be right back.

Travis, you gotta see this! We’ve got a Gulfstream G5. Look at that. National Science Foundation United States Gulfstream airspace G5. This looks to me like a C-A pattern you would do if you were doing very detailed 3D mapping, like reconnaissance. Is someone listening to what we’re doing? Gives us some things to think about. Let’s get back to it.

I believe this is potential evidence that we’re not only being monitored, but there are other active programs that may involve what we’re doing here right now. Appreciate y’all coming out.

So to help us get a better look at the triangle anomaly, we invited Richard Tenny, Chuck Harts, and David Molton from the Salt Lake Astronomical Society. They’re going to help us with tonight’s experiment. The plan is to have Richard, Chuck, and Dave focus their high-power telescopes up at that mile-high area above the triangle while we launch more rockets in an attempt to stimulate UAP activity.

I’m up and running. These guys have brought out six different telescopes. Each one also features a computerized database of planets and constellations, so it can lock onto a known object in the sky above the triangle.

As soon as it was dark enough to see the stars, it was time to start the experiment. I’m having trouble getting my computerized mount aligned. I’ve had this particular telescope over 10 years now, and I have never had a problem like this. The object I just slewed to a little while ago is now no longer in the database. What is gaining access to the memory of this system? Another star just disappeared from the database. You have got to be kidding me.

I could find things all around the perimeter of it, but nothing in the middle. It was baffling that telescopes of this caliber design would all glitch like that.

Okay, we’re going to launch this rocket in 2 minutes. I wanted to start launching rockets as fast as we could and see if we could get a response from the anomaly above the triangle. One dude, that one shot up there, and this camera is suddenly not working.

So when you point this towards the triangle, it’s not working. Nothing’s showing up on the camera. I can’t get any of the cameras at the bait pin to come up. Everything’s dead out there. Since the telescope’s computer wasn’t working, Eric got the idea to have Kaleb aim a military-grade laser pointer up through the triangle so that Chuck could manually focus on it.

Yeah, that’s it. Yes, we can see the green laser. There are points where it looks like the beam disconnects from itself. What, dude? Did you see it being… Dude, did you see that? Then the end of the laser bends. It makes a Y out of the beam, and then the laser actually splits into a Y. We really need to launch this rocket through that.

The whole herd is scattered through the entire field. I’m getting something on the 1.6. My first thought was we should be looking up. What the hell is that in the sky to the south? There it is, where I’m looking at it. There’s no red or green or white lights on it. That thing is big and spherical. Yes, it is. It’s got a black dot in the center of it.

The 1.6 is often seen in conjunction with UAP activity. It starts to track towards the east, and then it started to turn towards the north. But it’s getting dim. It just disappeared. We were all mentally exhausted by whatever that was that appeared after our final rocket launch.

It was the biggest UAP we’ve seen so far, and it appeared to have come closer than any of the others as well. There’s something really interesting that I haven’t seen before. I’d like to get your eyes on. Oh, there. Right, what was that?

This phenomenon was even more intense than the UAP we saw just hours earlier. With the rest of the team, I think there’s enough data in the video footage that this is more than a UAP, that this is a UFO. There is absolutely no conventional explanation.

We’ve been talking about the area over the triangle being some sort of anomaly, gateway. Could… Yeah, what if that’s the other end of the wormhole?

After Colonel John Alexander told us that the NID team dug near Homestead 2 and stimulated what they believe to be portal activity on the ranch, Thomas rented an industrialized bulldozer so we could dig in that exact same area to see what might happen.

That looks like that may be a little harder to dig. It does. We really haven’t even got that deep down in the soil when the bulldozer just bogs down and dies. It’s telling me it’s got a dead battery. Didn’t they just put two new ones in it like an hour ago? Yeah. Look, what the actual hell is this?

While the guys were trying to fix the bulldozer, I saw a massive spike in radiation in our gamma ray detectors in the area where they were digging. It’s almost 3500. These are very inexplicable spikes, as if something artificial could be generating them.

You got to get those people out of there. Eric pulled the data. There was a spike at 3400, 3400, 3400. Everybody out of here now. Oh, zeros, zeros. Some has interfered with the data collection. There’s three hours missing there. It’s gone. The gamma detector can’t do that. Even if you put it in a lead box, it’s still going to give you some background reading.

Now that the radiation levels are back to normal, I think we should wait until tonight and go back out there to see what else we can stimulate. Now the plan was to set up a safe distance from the dead bulldozer and use what’s become our tried and true method for stimulating phenomena: launching a rocket.

[NOP] Got the shoot coming down fast. Shoot hasn’t opened. Nope. Eric, are you doing something at 1.6? I’m not broadcasting a signal. 1.60. Want to try and listen to it? Yeah, it’s chirping in frequency. That’s a communication signal or something. From my experience as a rocket scientist, this sound frequency was like the kind of communication signal you would get from a satellite orbiting the Earth or even farther out in space.

I’m looking through some footage. I’ve got something here that doesn’t fit in. This is out of the carriage house across the canal. [Music] Yeah, what on Earth is that? You can even see the trail behind it and watch it go. It leaves a trail behind it as it goes. Or stop. There’s a black line through the center of this thing.

In one night, one span, there we see a strange communication beam and then we see this thing. And interestingly enough, at the same instant, we see this signal at 1.6 GHz. It’s pretty bizarre. You’ve captured a UAP on camera here, Eric, and we don’t know what it is.

Aaron and his crew from Straight Shot Drilling are going to do some horizontal drilling into the side of the Mesa. They’re actually going to go down under the road, under this canal, and then be able to maneuver up and hopefully puncture up into the Mesa and see if we find a void there.

The drill bit is lubricated by water as it punches through the base of the Mesa. And so far, more than 1,500 gallons has been used to get nearly 100 ft inside. You’d expect to see that water run back out into the pit, but it’s not there. There has to be a massive void in there. It’s just a question of how big it is and what it might contain.

There it is again. The Spectrum analyzer is giving us once again this mysterious 1.6 GHz signal. Well, do you want to go head down to the homestead then? Yeah. I’ve decided to send Tom and Dragon out to the homesteads and see if we pick up anything happening out there.

Eric, it looks like we have flowback. So after about 2,000 gallons, we’re finally starting to see some of the water. Let’s walk around the back where we’ve seen some strange stuff. Oh, wow. Why would a device that’s designed to receive be broadcasting?

We’ll just have a listen at [Music] this. I just, I just blacked out. It was like all the blood rushed out of my brain. With my position on the ranch, I made the decision right then and there to get him the hell out of here. He’s taking him straight to the emergency room.

Well, it looks like we’re in a ledge that’s holding us from coming up. I think it might be wise to just shut it down for a little bit and, uh, yeah, regroup.

As we get deeper into the hill, the mud finally starts flowing. It fills up this large hole that they dug with a backhoe to catch this stuff. I wonder what that black stuff is. What is that? Look at that. Oh my, it’s brittle. This is really thin.

Alright, look at that. So this is telling me on this first reading on this side we’re looking at calcium, iron, silicon, aluminum, magnesium. Let’s take a look at this other side, guys. That number is much different. Yeah, this side of this thing is showing up at almost 72% iron. We need to keep drilling and get a detailed elemental analysis of that material from a university-level laboratory to be certain of just what it is.

Well, you guys ready to go at it again? Yeah, we’re ready. See if we can get you past that point. Yeah, let’s see if we can break through. [Music] There, that was quite the noise that was just making. Yeah, I’m up against something pretty hard right now.

He’s hitting some kind of a hard layer that he describes as perhaps a dome inside the Mesa. There’s no good reason for that, as far as we’re aware. There we go. The fact that we’re getting all these thin layers of this substance and Aaron was hitting something so hard with his drill rig he couldn’t penetrate it.

Are we just chipping away at something much larger under the Mesa? I say we back this up. Aaron has tried and tried to get his drill to go up into the Mesa, but whatever is in there is driving it deeper into the ground, and we’ve reached the maximum 410 ft depths. We need to have him get his equipment out and reassess what we’re going to do next.

The next day, Eric received a report from the material science and engineering department at the University of Utah about the metal the guys drilled out of the Mesa. On one side of the material, there’s a Tum, and on the other side of the material, there’s europium.

Europium is a semiconductor material that is used in solar panels. The europium, under certain circumstances, is a superconductor. The elements found in this metal from deep inside the Mesa have properties just like those of a semiconductor and a superconductor, which are both used in modern-day electronics like computer processors, MRI machines, electronic vehicles, radios, and even smartphones.

Now what’s interesting is Tum is the second most rare element on the planet. Same goes for europium. Both of those materials are used in developing modern quantum computer systems. So it sounds like we’re looking at a structured material. How else do you get one of the elements only on one side and one of the elements only on the other side?

I have read some speculative scientific papers that suggest that if you took layers of semiconductors, conductors, and superconductors and you put these in multiple layers, you could actually create a region that might manipulate the spacetime metric, meaning it might bend space and time.

Eric and I went to the University of Utah to meet with Dr. Ravi Chandon to get his expert opinion and help us figure out what the huge dome-shaped object could be. The samples look like they’ve been fused. This material was manufactured as opposed to a natural occurrence.

Yes, I’m inclined to think that way too. When these materials fuse, it’s like a thin sheet of glass, and glass is quite resistant to drilling. Materials like these are analogous to ceramic oxides they use in space tiling to protect from burning up during re-entry.

Could the rumors we’ve heard about a spacecraft being buried on Skinwalker Ranch really be true? [Music]

So I was out there by the drill site. I was standing on the road like right above the hole, looking up at the guys, and the ground shook. Didn’t last as long as an earthquake, but it’s like that. And right as I held to walkie up the column, I saw something just boom, real quick, across the sky. And it was spherical, translucent white color.

Oh, there it is! Look at that. We’ve got three of these giant multi-hundred-watt laser space cannons. We’ve got the laser scanner. We’re going to be broadcasting a sweep across this 1.6 GHz.

We’ll set up three high-powered laser cannons around the triangle, and each laser beam will be aimed upward, converging at the mile-high zone where we’ve detected all kinds of radiation spikes and obtained evidence of an invisible anomaly that has deflected other lasers and GPS devices in the past.

We’re going to broadcast that 1.6 GHz signal up through one of the lasers directly into the anomalous spot above the triangle. The team from Lock
