>> every day, ufos are spotted in skies all over the world.
But of all the planets in the known galaxy,
Why have they come to earth? What do the aliens want?
Many would like to believe they are here to make peaceful
Contact, but some experts are convinced they have come
On a much darker mission. Earth is rich in natural
Resources, such as water, and minerals.
If that's what brought europeans to the americas, it may also be
What attracts an alien race. Are aliens here to seize
Earth's riches? And how far does
Their mission go? Join us as we investigate
A possible alien plot to plunder the earth's natural resources,
On "unsealed: Alien files."
A global effort has begun. Secret files, hidden
From the public for decades, detailing every ufo account,
Are now available to the public. We are about to uncover
The truth behind these classified documents.
Find out what the government doesn't want you to know.
"unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret
On planet earth. The jiuquan satellite launch
Center, in mongolia, June 16, 2012.
The chinese space agency launches its first woman
Astronaut into orbit. But the earth's orbit is,
By now, a well-worn path. So, china has announced much
Bigger ambitions for its space program, intending to launch
A manned mission to the moon by the year 2020.
Some space experts believe the nation intends to establish
Permanent mining operations on earth's natural satellite.
But many in the ufo community fear that when the chinese land,
They will quickly find others have already claimed the moon's
Riches for their own.
>> we choose to go to the moon in this decade, and do the other
Things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
>> 1961. President john f. Kennedy
Declares america's intention to send a man to the moon.
On the surface, it's a bold political move to keep pace with
The soviet union in the space race, but according to some,
Behind closed doors, the united states was quietly engaged
In a second race, with another rival,
One infinitely more powerful than the soviets.
>> from the early 1950s, uh, national security people
In the United States...
>> but why would extraterrestrials establish
A base on a small, lifeless world, with the earth so close?
The moon is bursting with unguarded mineral riches
For the taking, but locked within its rocks and sand
Is an invisible substance that could soon change life
On earth, forever.
Helium-3 is a byproduct of the massive nuclear fusion
Reaction that we know as the burning of the sun.
The invisible substance is released into space, where it is
Scattered by solar winds across our planetary neighborhood.
The earth's atmosphere prevents helium-3 from reaching
Its surface, but the moon has no atmosphere.
For billions of years, its surface has been bombarded
By a constant stream of helium-3.
Many scientists believe the mysterious substance could
One day be used in nuclear fusion reactors to produce
Virtually limitless amounts of clean energy, unlike the fission
Reactors of today. They also believe fusion
Reactors, fuelled by helium-3, will one day power our journeys
To the stars. The question is,
Have extraterrestrials already perfected this interstellar
Technology? And if they have, does that make
The moon a prime location for an alien mine?
Unsealed case file: The missing moon tapes.
The apollo 11 mission that fulfilled kennedy's dream was
Captured on video, and broadcast across the world.
But for two minutes, that transmission failed.
>> during, uh, neil armstrong's transmission back to earth
There is a missing two minutes in that, and people have
Speculated as to what is in those two minutes.
Now, there have been some unofficial, uh, radio
Communications that have been circulating saying that
They saw two ufos flying over a crater, and along with
Other structures that they saw on the moon.
>> nasa blamed the transmission on an overheated camera.
Nasa engineers made back-up copies of the mission tapes.
But in a 2009 report, the agency admitted that, mysteriously,
They never saw the back-up tapes again.
Did neil armstrong and buzz aldrin catch a glimpse
Of an alien mine? Are extraterrestrials using
The moon as an interstellar fuelling station?
And will our eventual return to the moon spark an interplanetary
War for control of its helium-3?
Coming up, aliens target the ultimate source of power
On planet earth.
This is "unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret
On planet earth. >> welcome back to
"unsealed: Alien files."
Many experts fear that aliens have come to earth
To plunder its natural resources.
Evidence has revealed they may be mining the moon for helium-3
To fuel their interstellar spacecraft.
But according to other reports, their quest for power
Doesn't stop at the moon. Karnes city, texas, 1971.
The night shift is underway, deep inside conoco's open pit
Uranium mine. Suddenly, a blinding light
Appears over the pits, accompanied by a high-pitched
Hissing noise. Minutes pass, and the light dims
Enough for witnesses to make out its source,
A massive ufo.
It rises slowly, and then speeds out of sight.
At first, no one believes the 6 eyewitnesses, but, soon after,
It is discovered that all of the uranium ore
Within a 250-foot radius of the sighting has
Been transformed into a white, chalky substance, and robbed
Of its radioactive properties. Why did the karnes city ufo
Target a uranium mine? What did the white light do
To the uranium deposits to neutralize their radioactivity?
Was it absorbed for fuel? The karnes city incident is not
The first time aliens have taken interest in earth's radioactive
Materials. 4 years earlier,
Another incident would strike at the very heart
Of america's national security.
Unsealed case file: The malmstrom missile incident.
1967, malmstrom air force base, montana.
The installation is home to a fleet of intercontinental
Ballistic missiles. It's part of america's
Nuclear defense against the soviet union.
The weapons are armed, and ready to launch at a moment's notice.
Captain robert salas was on duty the morning of March 16th.
He gave his eyewitness account of the events of that day
At the 2013 citizen hearing on disclosure.
>> we were on duty, uh, inside the oscar launch control
Center, a concrete capsule, located about...
[speaking english]
>> two guards see a shooting star moving in a bizarre zigzag
Pattern across the sky. Seconds later, another appears.
The two men watch in disbelief as the stars begin speeding
Toward the base. Alarmed, they contact
Captain salas. What they see next
Makes their blood run cold.
Salas's mind is racing. What is the craft hovering
Above the base? Is it a new soviet weapon?
Just then, he witnesses the seemingly impossible.
Salas fears the worst. Is this happening at other
Missile bases? Is america now defenseless?
But then, just as suddenly as the ufo appeared,
It disappears into the distance. The ensuing military
Investigation will raise more questions than answers.
A declassified report on the incident states that
"rumors of unidentified flying objects around the area
Were disproven." an assertion refuted by salas.
But it also states "there were no unusual discrepancies in
The missile control circuits." according to the report,
The system shut down "for no reason whatsoever."
How could 10 of the deadliest weapons in the world
Be deactivated for no apparent reason?
Salas believes the danger is real, and, very possibly,
Beyond our control.
What brought ufos to an american nuclear missile
Base, and later, a texas uranium mine, where it sapped
The minerals' radioactivity? Are the two events connected?
Did extraterrestrials discover the power of uranium
At malmstrom, only to later devise a means of using it
For their own purposes? Have the earth's uranium
Deposits become a ready source of energy for ufos?
And, what else do they want?
Coming up, we investigate the disturbing possibility
That aliens are here to seize the rarest resource
In the galaxy. This is "unsealed: Alien files,"
Exposing the biggest secret on planet earth.
>> welcome back to "unsealed: Alien files."
Evidence has revealed that aliens may be here
To plunder our most precious natural resources.
The earth is rich in oxygen, and liquid water, scarcely occurring
Elsewhere in the solar system, or the rest of the known
Universe. But the earth is home to
Something even more rare. According to some experts,
It may, in fact, be the most precious resource in the galaxy.
1961. Frank drake is a radio
Astronomer, scanning the galaxy for signals that might indicate
An intelligent civilization. He devises an equation,
To estimate the number of civilizations existing
Throughout the milky way galaxy. The equation takes into account
7 factors, including the number of stars that have planets,
The number of planets that support intelligent life, and,
Chillingly, the length of time an intelligent civilization
Lasts before it is destroyed by natural causes,
Or destroys itself.
It's known as "drake's equation."
In 1980, renowned astronomer carl sagan used
Drake's equation to estimate there may be as few as 10
Technologically advanced civilizations in the milky way,
At any given time. Given the estimated 300 billion
Star systems in the milky way, spread out over 100,000
Light years, that would make intelligent life, by far,
The scarcest natural resource in the galaxy, and, perhaps,
Even the universe.
Civilizations cannot survive without a collective
Intelligence that is constantly growing and evolving.
Is it possible that aliens have come to earth to harvest human
Intelligence, to add to their own?
Unsealed case file: Ted davenport.
Alamogordo, new mexico, 1975. 16-year-old ted davenport
Sets out on an ill-advised solo backpacking trip
Into the mountains. He feels compelled to do so
By an indescribable force. Along the way, davenport has
A constant feeling that he is being watched.
At night, he feels compelled to leave his tent.
Outside, he is astonished to see a group of small,
Humanoid beings. He then blacks out.
The next morning, davenport awakens beside his smoldering
Campfire, with no recollection of the night before.
He has a painful headache and an odd knot on his skull,
Next to his left ear, but is otherwise in good condition.
5 years later, davenport is in the navy.
He is badly injured on duty, and sent for emergency medical
Treatment. An mri reveals a strange
Metallic implant in his brain. Davenport claims to have been
Abducted multiple times since the implant's discovery.
Doctors will refuse to remove it, despite
Many opportunities to do so. Davenport claims that aliens use
The implant to control not only his brain, but the brains
Of the doctors who treat him, as well.
A further scan in 2001 reveals the implant still present.
Ted davenport is just one of hundreds of reported abductees
Who claim to have had their brains operated on by aliens.
And some surgeries are more invasive than others.
>> many abductees will say that they put something up the nose
With an instrument, and they always describe this cracking
Sound that they hear. Uh, well, if you look up
The nasal cavity to the base of the brain, and you--there's
A bone called the ethmoid. And there's two thin,
Little plates-- those are called the ethmoid
Plates, and if you puncture one of those plates, you're
Right at the base of the brain. >> why are aliens placing
Implants in human brains? Are they attempting to
Scan our brains to study what we know, to add to their body
Of knowledge? Or are they here for samples
Of the brain itself, to be integrated into
Their own physiology? And could there be something
Even more sinister at work? Every year, thousands go missing
Without a trace. Could some be victims
Of alien abduction? And if so,
What is their fate? Are their brains being harvested
To ensure the survival of an alien race?
Is the earth an intelligence farm for beings
From another world? Coming up, the final,
Terrifying revelation that the human harvest may have been
Happening for longer than we could ever imagine.
This is "unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret
On planet earth.
>> welcome back to "unsealed: Alien files."
The time to act is now. Tell us your story.
Get involved in the fight to unseal the truth,
Now. Are aliens harvesting human
Intelligence? And if they are, how long has
This been happening? >> you rise, and you fall.
You know, this civilization seems to be about 12,000 years
Old, but there are older civilizations, uh,
That have left things behind. You have to consider
The possibility that, uh, this is not the first time
We've been on this planet. >> many experts believe that
Aliens helped plant the seeds of our current civilization.
Is it possible they did so in order to harvest humans
In the future? And is the present downfall
Of planet earth a warning sign that it's about to happen
Again? This is "unsealed: Alien files,"
Exposing the biggest secret on planet earth.
