06x07 - Lights Out

[bunniefuu]

CHRIS: I've got something
over here you guys

- should take a look at in the spoils.
- Man, look at this.

This looks just like what
we pulled out in the mesa.

Exactly the same.

CHRIS: I'll look for more.

TRAVIS: Oh, it's moving fast.

The rocket's completely
changed direction.

It's like the
bubble deflected it.

Every time I try to push through
the barrier, look what happens.

THOMAS [over radio]: He's trying
to push the drone through the bubble

- and it won't go.
- TRAVIS: That is crazy.

It's just stuck right there.

ERIK: Okay, here we go.

- TRAVIS: There it is.
- KALEB: Oh, there it is.

- TRAVIS: Holy crap. Look at that.
- KALEB: There's something

right next to the drone.

I don't know what else
to say about it other than

we need to keep studying

- this bubble.
- THOMAS: Right.

NARRATOR: There is
a ranch in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing occurrences on Earth.

For two decades,

the federal government

investigated the property.

Their findings have
never been made public.

TRAVIS: Right there!
We got something!

NARRATOR: Now a new team

of independent
scientists and researchers

are taking over.

They are uncovering evidence

that the countless stories...

It came right out of the mesa.

Of unidentified
aerial phenomena...

- UAP right there!
- KALEB: Yep.

Bizarre energies...

It looks like there's a heat
source right above them.

And portals that lead
to other dimensions...

We're maybe
looking at the anomaly

for the first time, guys.

Might actually be true.

They will stop at
nothing to reveal...

The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

TRAVIS: Morning, fellas.

- Good morning.
- Morning.

What's going on?

We're about 170 feet in.

TRAVIS: Our team never knows

what to expect on
Skinwalker Ranch.

But this morning, we
were relieved to hear

that the guys from Mark
Construction Drilling

were making some good progress

on our second
borehole in the mesa.

So, did you just break through
some layer that was difficult?

We've been through a
couple different harder layers.

And, uh, whatever
layer we're in right now

is letting us move pretty good.

I'm encouraged to
hear you say that.

TRAVIS: Previous
drilling operations

and ground-penetrating
radar scans

have shown amazing evidence
that a 400-foot-long object

and several smaller anomalies
are buried inside there.

Recently, we
completed Borehole 1,

and now we're
working on Borehole 2,

so that both can be used
to insert scanning devices

that will help us figure out

what these buried
objects really are.

Last week, our first new
GPR scans in Borehole 1

revealed more data

that at least some of these
objects could be metallic.

And then, as the drillers

reached about 130
feet into Borehole 2,

they hit something much,
much harder than rock.

I got something that you guys

would probably be
interested in right here.

TRAVIS: This led to
archaeologist Chris Roberts

finding bits of
metal in the spoils

matching fragments
we found three years ago

that were similar

to what NASA and SpaceX use

to protect the exteriors of
spacecraft during reentry.

THOMAS: The spoils
trailer is ready to dump.

ERIK: Well, let's get
those inspected right away.

We're gonna let
you get back to work.

- Sounds like a plan.
- Sounds good.

All right. Good luck, guys.

So, after hearing
that the drillers

hit another very hard spot

about 170 feet into Borehole 2,

we couldn't wait to
see what Chris Roberts

might find in the spoils.

That's weird.

TRAVIS: We figured it
would take him a while to look.

But then, almost
immediately, he called us.

CHRIS [over radio]: Hey,
Thomas, you got a copy?

Yeah, I do. Go ahead.

I got something kind of
curious over here coming out,

and I thought you guys
might want to get a look at it.

Indeed, we do.
We'll be over soon.

TRAVIS: Let's go load
up and get on over there.

ERIK: I think it
makes a lot of sense,

as we encounter
this hard material,

to expect to see
something coming back out

into the spoils that
would give us clues

as to what the
material composition is.

So, what's up?

CHRIS: Well, they're
coming up with some, uh,

kind of green jelly
that we haven't seen

anywhere else through here.

And it just has a
green color to it.

- Look at this.
- That does look like what we've seen before,

- don't it, Erik?
- This looks exactly like what we've pulled out.

TRAVIS: We were expecting
to hear about more metal,

but all this green jelly-like
stuff is just as curious.

Last year, we found
a small amount

of similar-looking
material in Borehole 1

and couldn't believe

what the scientific
analysis on it revealed.

The particles you see are
pieces of burnt plant material.

TRAVIS: You mean like
something caused a fire

deep inside the mesa?

Absolutely. Yeah.

TRAVIS: Wow.

If this green jelly matches

what we discovered last year,

then we've found even
more evidence that suggests

a fire or expl*si*n took
place inside the mesa.

So, given the metal pieces
we've also found in the spoils

that might be
related to spacecraft,

what in the world could these
objects in the mesa actually be?

ERIK: I'm glad to get our
hands on more of that stuff.

- We'll get it analyzed.
- TRAVIS: All right,

well, we got stuff to do.

TRAVIS: Later that day,

while the drilling operation
continued at the mesa...

Man, y'all brought a
crew out this year, Tim.

Yeah, we-we got
a crew all right.

TRAVIS: we
welcomed Tim Anderson

and his team from Nu-Salt Lasers

back out to help us
investigate something else

that's just as mind-boggling.

We discovered that there appears
to be a bubble over the ranch

that is invisible
to the naked eye

but is centered at the
triangle and is about



So, we've got to get
more information about

what is going on right here,
and what's it connected to.

Using numerous
infrared technologies,

we've detected a gigantic
bubble with a 2,000-foot radius

that encompasses a
huge area of the property

both above and below ground.

Within this thing,

we've encountered tons of UAPs,

been unable to collect
accurate GPS data,

detected a bunch of strange
radio frequency signals,

and its boundaries have
even stopped rockets

and drones from entering it.

Well, you know what
we saw last year.

The laser stopped in midair.

We are hitting
something with the laser.

What are we hitting?

And last year, before we
even knew about the bubble,

during an experiment
at the triangle,

one of Nu-Salt's
high-powered lasers

was cut off 2,000 feet high,

right at the top
boundary of the bubble.

ERIK: One of the
really strong points

of the experiment is
that we are spanning

essentially the entire property.

You know, when we talk
about this bubble-like structure,

we're looking at
points on the outside,

right on that
boundary, on the inside.

And I think those
Laser Space Cannons

is a great way to go after it.

What's different about

what you're bringing
out this time, Tim?

Well, we do have a brighter
Laser Space Cannon,

so we're gonna be doing
a lot of red, green and blue

Laser Space Cannons
for the experiment.

ERIK: All right, let's do it.

TRAVIS: Our goal
tonight is to confirm

if laser beams really
might be stopped

or strangely altered
by the bubble.

So, we're gonna use
multicolored laser beams

to see if all of them will
be affected in the same way

or if it only applies
to certain colors.

TIM: All right, guys, let's
start breaking out equipment.

TRAVIS: To accomplish
this, the plan is

for Nu-Salt to set
up 18 laser cannons

that are designed to
send multicolored beams

all the way up into outer space.

They'll be placed
in groups of three,

starting with one
station in the east field

and another near the
eastern bubble boundary,

then four more groups of three
strategically placed from there

all the way to Homestead Two,

which is close to the western
boundary of the bubble.

Inside the bubble, we'll
have a group of three lasers

placed at our data collection
facility, known as the ARC,

another group
right at the triangle

and the last group will be
over at the mesa drill site.

TIM: That's pretty solid.

TRAVIS: Once the
laser cannons are on,

I'll be launching rockets both
outside and within the bubble

at Homestead Two,
the mesa drill site,

and in the east field.

We want to see if the
rockets are affected at all

or differently depending
on their proximity

to the bubble or
location inside it.

Meanwhile, from the south field,

Jim Royston will fly his
drone-based thermal camera

towards the bubble,
looking for anything strange

that might be invisible
to the naked eye.

We're getting there.

TRAVIS: And as high-speed
and thermal cameras

around the ranch are
recording everything in the field...

Erik will be monitoring
the experiment

from the control room with
his surveillance cameras

and spectrum analyzers.

I'm standing by, ready
here at the command center.

We are anxious to
energize the space

inside the bubble as
well as outside the bubble,

look for differences

in what happens
with the-the laser light,

including malfunctions
of the laser system itself.

We're also on the
lookout for any anomalous

equipment behavior and other
forms of unusual phenomena.

We're looking for a
unifying explanation

of whatever this bubble is.

TIM: Nu-Salt laser crew,

we're gonna turn the
lasers on at the ARC.

Three, two, one.

Lasers on.

All right, guys.
Everybody's set up there.

We're getting ready to go.

- How you guys doing?
- Ah, we're good. How are you?

SAM: Whoa. Right there.

ROYSTON: Whoa, we
got something moving.

KALEB: We've got something
right here in the south over here.

ROYSTON: Boy, that's bright.

KALEB: We got a
bright yellow light moving.

It's heading due east now.

No aviation lights, just
a solid bright yellow light.

Copy that, Kaleb.

I do not see any corresponding
air traffic on the ADS-B.

- I'll keep an eye out.
- 10-4.

- ROYSTON: Boy, that was bright.
- KALEB: Yeah.

TRAVIS: Just after turning on
the three laser cannons at the ARC,

which is inside the bubble,

a stunning UAP
appeared in the sky

for several seconds
and then just vanished.

Did it come from
or was it somehow

connected to the bubble?

VADIM [over radio]: Hey, Tim.

I just lost the, uh,
hardwired lasers at the ARC.

Uh, I'm gonna try
to troubleshoot them

and figure out what's going on.

TIM: Roger that.

Hey, so, are... they're on now

- and they're staying on?
- VADIM: Yeah. Yeah.

Tim, do we have
an assignable cause

for the systems going down?

We do not.

I-I don't, I don't believe
it was overheating,

so I'm not sure
why they went down.

But we're gonna
keep our eye on it.

Copy that. Thanks.

TRAVIS: Correlation is
not necessarily causation.

But this was another weird
case of something unexplainable

appearing in the sky right
before some of our equipment

suddenly malfunctioned.

Was this connected to the UAP?

THOMAS: Hey, it's Thomas.
Uh, just letting you know

that we're just getting
ready to leave right now.

ERIK: Copy that, and over.

TRAVIS: Thomas, Chris
and I grabbed all of the rockets

and headed out to Homestead Two

near the western
boundary of the bubble

just after the UAP appeared

and the lasers by the
ARC malfunctioned.

What an interesting start, huh?

THOMAS: Yes.

- TRAVIS: Thomas, you want to grab the rocket, man?
- Yep.

TRAVIS: So, I wanted to get
as many laser cannons fired up

as we could and then
launch our first rocket

just outside the bubble barrier

to see if something even
stranger might happen.

Hey, Erik, we've got,
uh, one rocket on the pad.

Let's go ahead and, uh,

bring all the lasers up.

Okay. Copy that. Thanks, man.

TIM: All right, Nu-Salt
laser technicians,

I'm gonna do a countdown.

Three, two,

one, lasers.

THOMAS: Lasers are up.

- Look at that.
- TRAVIS: Look at that. Wow.

TRAVIS: The lasers look amazing.

With all the laser
cannons working,

I was ready to fire off a rocket

just outside of the bubble
from Homestead Two.

Meanwhile, Jim launched
his drone in the south field

so he could fly
it into the bubble

and look for any
invisible phenomena

that might be triggered
by the lasers or the rocket.

And from the command center,

Erik was monitoring
the drone's GPS position.

Uh, I show him in the air,

and I'm carefully
monitoring for,

uh, data corruption errors.

KALEB: 10-4.

Yeah, copy that.

ERIK: Whoa.

I do see some at
his current position.

ROYSTON: Correct.

I lost complete
control of the drone.

KALEB: What the heck?

Hey, Travis and Erik?

Just for your guys' information,

Jim's drone had an error.

Copy that. Thank you, Kaleb.

We're seeing loss
of navigation lights,

loss in-in the connectivity

between the drone
and the controller.

Why are we seeing
the data corruption

around the periphery
of the bubble?

TRAVIS: Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, Travis. Go ahead.

We are picking up,
at the 1.2 gigahertz,

what looks like an oscillating
communication signal.

I've also got that,

uh, just north of,
uh, 1.2 gigahertz.

Copy that, Erik.

We're also seeing three
peaks at 1.6 gigahertz as well.

Copy that.

I, uh, should keep
an eye on that as well.

TRAVIS: There was too much
happening to just be coincidence.

Right after Jim Royston's
drone started glitching

when it approached the
southern boundary of the bubble,

we detected two very bizarre
radio frequency signals.

First, the 1.2 gigahertz.

This is a signal
that Erik himself

broadcast a few weeks ago

just to monitor for interference

while we investigated
the bubble.

It's one that we had never
detected before on the ranch.

But then, something
seemed to have cloned it

and transmitted it back at us.

So, was that happening again?

And then, the 1.6
gigahertz signal.

We see 1.6 on the ranch
a lot during UAP events.

But that's a signal that
the military reserves

for Earth-to-space
communications.

So, what is sending that
on Skinwalker Ranch?

All right, the
rocket is going hot

at the west end of the ranch.

With all this going on,

I really wanted to
get a rocket launched

just outside the bubble to
see if something would happen

that might give us a clue.

Rocket is launching in five,

four, three,

two, one.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I just hit all the errors.

ERIK: Unbelievable.

KALEB: Hey, Erik? Jim just got

all sorts of errors, and
having a lot of interference

- going on with the drone.
- SAM: All right, Erik, be advised,

the, uh, drone is
aborting the flight

and returning to home.

ERIK: Okay, listen to this...

that data corruption error

happened literally right
at the edge of that bubble.

-[laughter] -That's
freakin' nuts.

TRAVIS: The rocket
appeared to be unaffected.

But right after I launched it,

Jim's drone completely
malfunctioned

and couldn't penetrate
the southern barrier

of the bubble.

Did the rocket somehow
activate the bubble

to stop the drone
from flying inside it?

That just makes no sense.

THOMAS: I don't see
green from the drill site.

TRAVIS: Oh, yeah.

We're seeing a phenomena here
where we do not see the green

at the drill site

from Homestead Two.

ERIK: Guys, be advised,
it is not at all clear

that the green laser is working.

I can say that we have
only the green laser beam,

uh, at the edge of the
bubble on the east side.

Okay, now I've got
a red beam only.

The green laser is off.

At the edge of the
bubble on the east side,

we have only the red laser now.

We're losing lasers.

They're having
all kind of trouble.

The laser cannons
were all emitting

multicolored beams.

But at several locations,

only certain colors
stopped working.

Like something was
selectively shutting them off.

What could do that?

TIM [over radio]: All
right, we have lasers up.

Copy that, Tim.
Thanks for the update.

All right, let's head
on to the next site.

Was it something
related to the bubble

that was also broadcasting

the 1.2 and 1.6
gigahertz signals?

Everyone be advised that, uh,

we are on the
move to the drill site.

ERIK: Copy that.

At that point, I wanted
to launch another rocket,

but this time, from
inside the bubble

at the mesa drill site

to see if that might
get us an answer.

[device beeping]

- What's beeping?
- Whoa.

- What's beeping?
- Look at... oh, my God, look at that.

We're getting huge gamma rays.

Everybody in their
cars and out of here.

- THOMAS: Out, out, out, out.
- We're evacuating now.

- TRAVIS: Everybody, out now.
- Hey, guys, it's going off!

TRAVIS: It's going
nut... everybody out, now!

- TRAVIS: This is no joke.
- THOMAS: No, it's not.

- THOMAS: Erik...
- Erik, we are getting over



and at some points, it was 800.

That's getting into the
dangerous zone there,

uh, Travis.

TRAVIS: Things went from weird

to really freakin' scary
at the mesa drill site

right as we were
preparing to launch a rocket

up through the bubble.

Out of nowhere,

our gamma ray
detector started spiking,

which indicated we
were suddenly exposed

to an extremely
dangerous level of radiation.

Anybody at Homestead
Two, anybody west,

has to come back towards
the command center.

ERIK: I have real concerns about
these elevated radiation readings.

There's really nothing in
nature that would produce

spikes like this.

We can't help but
speculate as to what

could have done that?

But perhaps this is
related to this bubble.

TRAVIS: We're now
approaching the triangle,

but it seems to be following us.

We're still getting slammed.

KALEB: Travis, you guys
literally just got to the triangle,

and right when
you guys got there,

the... all the lasers
just went out.

TRAVIS: That doesn't
make any sense.

When Kaleb alerted us
that the laser cannons

at the triangle quit
working, it was right

as we were passing by on our
way back to the command center.

Now, we were also
driving inside the bubble.

So, was something inside of
it shutting down our equipment

while also emitting this
spike of gamma rays at us?

What the heck was going on?

ROYSTON: Look at this, guys.

- Look at this. Look at this.
- KALEB: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

- ROYSTON: It's heading right towards the command center.
- Yeah.

KALEB: Hey, guys, we just had

a massive... [chuckles]

bright green yellowish light

directly east of
the south tower.

It looked like it was
heading right towards

the command center.

TRAVIS: Copy that, Kaleb.

There's something going on here.

Holy crap.

A UAP flying toward
the command center,

and right where we were heading.

I mean, it was absolute
chaos out there,

but could that UAP
have been the source

of all those gamma rays
following us across the ranch?

And all of this was
happening inside the bubble.

So is this where it came from?

That was low, low.

Yeah, that went frickin' crazy.

Right?

You've got two
different Geiger counters.

TRAVIS: Yeah.

Just kind of watch
and see what happens.

[device clicking]

THOMAS: What was that?

[clicking continues]

- TRAVIS: It jumped.
- Oh, it's jumping. Look.

TRAVIS: Look at that.

Erik, do you copy?

Yeah, Travis, go ahead.

TRAVIS: Erik, we checked a
second gamma ray detector.

If I hold one, it's
up over 1,900,

but if I'm not touching
it, it reads normal levels.

So I think we're having
an electromagnetic

interference issue here,

not gamma rays.

Yeah, Travis, I'm...

fairly confident we're
looking at an E.M.I. issue.

TRAVIS: Okay. It was
time to take a deep breath.

The Geiger counters detected

normal and safe
levels of radiation

when I wasn't touching them,

but spiked when
I picked them up.

That meant we
were not getting hit

by dangerous levels
of gamma rays,

but instead, something
had caused major E.M.I.,

or electromagnetic
interference, here on the ranch,

which can make
electronics go haywire

like what we were seeing.

So, since this all took
place inside the bubble,

was that... or the UAPs we
saw... behind all this chaos?

All right, well,

let's get another
instrument in your hands.

Let's get a third witness.

TRAVIS: Good idea, Erik.

Let's get a third gamma
ray detector out here.

Chris, I'm gonna give you one
of these gamma ray detectors.

So, what I want you to
do is follow behind us.

You keep an eye on
that, and if we don't see

any crazy things happening,

- then we're gonna go back to the experiment.
- Okay.

THOMAS: Thomas to Erik.

Yeah, go ahead for Erik.

We're gonna take
these, uh, detectors

and go back towards
the drill site slowly

and see if, uh, we pick
up any unusual readings.

Copy that, Thomas.

Let's do it.

[engine starts]

We wanted to get back
out to the mesa drill site

and continue our laser
and rocket experiment,

but we had to make
certain it was safe.

So Erik suggested
that Thomas and I

take two Geiger
counters in my jeep,

while Chris follows
behind with a third one.

That way, we can compare
what our readings were

on the way out there.

Hey, Chris, you copy?
What you reading?

Uh, I am, uh, sitting
at 20 right now.

Copy that, Chris.

That's right in line with
what yours is reading.

- TRAVIS: Yeah.
- 19.

TRAVIS: Wow.

Everybody ranch-wide,

I wanted to make
the announcement.

The gamma ray levels are normal.

We think whatever the event was

that just occurred is over,
and that the ranch is safe.

I copy that, Travis.
Thanks for that update.

TRAVIS: And all the
lasers appear to be working.

I guess we need to
get that rocket ready.

The lasers at
the mesa drill site

were functioning as planned,

so I was eager to get
another rocket launched

from inside the bubble's
western boundary

to see if anything stranger

than what we had already
seen would happen.

- CHRIS: It's hot.
- All right. We are launching

the rocket in five...

four, three, two,

one.

Dude, that went straight up.

- We got a chute.
- Oh, yeah, good chute.

TRAVIS: Looks like
the rocket did well.

It's coming straight down on us.

KALEB: Hey, guys, the
ARC lasers just went out.

TRAVIS: Yeah,
the lasers did go off.

I'm gonna go up higher.

KALEB: The drill site
lasers just went out also.

Yeah, I don't see them at all.

TRAVIS: Yeah,
Erik, we can confirm

that the drill site
lasers are out.

Hey, Tim, we're at
the drill site right now.

Are you guys turning lasers
off without us knowing it?

TIM: We're not turning
any lasers off or on.

TRAVIS: Uhp, laser just came on.

TIM: We have
lasers on at the ARC.

I-I don't understand it.

TRAVIS: Right after
I launched the rocket,

laser cannons across
the ranch suddenly started

shutting off and
then coming back on.

Was it just a mechanical error?

Or was something
else messing with them?

Hey, Adam, dude, from right
over there, across the road,

it looked like all three
of the lasers were out.

ADAM: It went completely out
and then came right back on, like...

- it was weird, I was sitting here staring right at it.
- That's crazy.

And then, when the
lasers first came on,

I took this picture...

and caught that at the top.

- TRAVIS: Oh. Wait.
- THOMAS: What is that?

Something flying
horizontally through

the dad-gummed laser beam.

THOMAS: What the hell is that?

THOMAS: What the hell is that?

Something flying
horizontally through

the dad-gummed laser beam.

It's not the rocket,

because the rocket
was going the other way.

- And it's through the green.
- Yeah.

Holy crap.

Did firing a rocket from inside

the western
boundary of the bubble

trigger another UAP to appear
and fly through the laser beam?

And was that what caused
the laser malfunctions

across the ranch?

That's pretty crazy.
That's a great picture.

- Make sure we get a copy of that picture.
- I will.

- All right, let's get out of here.
- Okay.

- TRAVIS: Let's load up...
- Yep.

And meet at the east canyon

to launch a rocket by
those laser cannons.

- THOMAS: Sounds good.
- All right.

TRAVIS: Since we had encountered
some of the wildest UAPs ever

after launching rockets
near the western boundary

of the bubble and
inside it by the drill site,

we wanted to see
what would happen

when we launched a
rocket from just outside

of the eastern bubble barrier.

ROYSTON: Kaleb.

- KALEB: Yeah.
- Right where I am, I'm just hitting

the bubble barrier to the south.

I'm just starting
to get some errors.

- Sam, you'll be watching that?
- SAM: Yeah.

KALEB: Every time you
hit the bubble boundary,

- you're getting an error.
- I'm looking at it visually,

- Kaleb's got it on FLIR.
- Yeah.

KALEB: Dude.

You...

It looks like you just
flew through something.

- What?
- Right when you hit the bubble,

- it looked like a... like a sphere or something...
- No way.

- Just surrounded your drone.
- No way.

SAM: You were a
very tight bright spot,

and then all of a
sudden, you went to, like,

a big blurry spot.

- Really?
- [laughs]: Yeah.

Yeah.

ERIK [over radio]:
Erik for Kaleb.

KALEB: Yeah, go ahead, Erik.

At the moment that the
drone passed through

uh, the bubble,

uh, I did get a data
corruption error.

- There you go, that's the spot.
- 10-4, Erik.

ROYSTON: As soon as I
start moving into that barrier,

sure enough, I start getting
all these errors on the drone.

And now we're seeing
something around the drone

on the FLIR camera.

It's like there's almost
a flare or it could be

some energy or something.

Come on, man.

All right, I'm coming back.

What is going on out here

around this boundary
of the bubble?

TRAVIS [over radio]: Hey, Erik.

We're in motion
to, uh, the next site,

the east canyon.

ERIK: Copy that, Travis.

Go out here and see what we got.

- Grab that rocket, Thomas.
- THOMAS: Yep.

ERIK: So, guys, I think
we're getting really close.

You know, once we get all
of our personnel cleared out,

uh, we can start prepping
for that raster scan.

TRAVIS: Copy that, Erik.

For the final step
of our experiment,

we'll launch a rocket near
the eastern bubble barrier

while the Nu-Salt team will
aim a specialized laser projector

horizontally from
the south tower.

It'll sh**t laser beams

in various raster
patterns side to side,

scanning through
much more of the area

inside the bubble
and across the mesa.

We'll be looking for
breaks, bends, deviations

or anything strange
in the laser beams

as they pass through the bubble.

Given what we've already seen,

we didn't know
what to expect next.

KALEB: Okay, so
while they're getting

this last rocket set up

and moving into position,
let's get this going.

Okay, perfect.

KALEB: Hey, guys,
lasers coming up in five,

four, three,

two, one.

SAM: Oh, wow.

That's great.

THOMAS: Oh, I can see
the laser over there on the hill.

Oh, yeah, you can see it
coming across. You sure can.

ERIK: Mm-hmm.

That's a great way to detect
interruptions in the beam.

I like that.

TRAVIS: We ready?

- We're hot.
- All right.

Here we go, in five,

four, three,

two, one.

- Oh, beautiful launch.
- CHRIS: Beautiful.

TRAVIS: The rastering
laser beams produced

one of the most
visually stimulating things

we had ever seen on the ranch.

Hey, guys, we're gonna
give it 30 more seconds

on these green beams, and
then we'll bring them down.

Copy that, Kaleb.

TRAVIS: But after
several minutes,

no more strange
phenomena seemed to appear

in front of our eyes or
on our detection devices.

It was like whatever we
were dealing with earlier

was now gone.

But who knows?

We'll have to
process all of our data

to really know for sure.

ERIK: Yeah, hey, guys,
it looks like we've got

a really good data payload here.

Um, I say we, uh,
we call it a night.

- It's time to wrap things up.
- Copy that, Erik.

We're loading up,
we're headed that way.

Yeah, 10-4, Erik.
Lasers coming down.

ERIK: All right, guys, thank
you for your work tonight.

TRAVIS: I can't
wait to see this data.

TRAVIS: Greetings, earthlings.

ERIK: Come on
in and have a seat.

What are we doing today, Erik?

So, we're looking at the review

of all the data we got last
night with Nu-Salt Lasers.

Mm-hmm.

TRAVIS: The next
day, while drilling

in our second borehole
continued out at the mesa,

Erik called all of us
into the command center

after he and Jim had
crunched all of their data.

I was just talking with
Jim about the drone work.

You guys probably
recall, he ran into

some issues right there
at the bubble boundary.

- Oh, yeah.
- ERIK: And we'll compare that

- with the GPS data.
- Yup.

ERIK: So, Jim, I
have the video clips

that you've sent me
from your controller.

I want you to walk me
through what's going on here.

Absolutely, so the first one

I'll bring up is
the first flight.

ERIK: Okay.

All right, I'm looking at
the thermographic image.

ROYSTON: And I was
really focusing more

on getting through
the bubble boundary.

All right, so I'm
already seeing some

messages popping up
on your... on your display.

As you're seeing, we start
losing signal to the controller.

ERIK: Mm-hmm. Okay.

THOMAS: I'm watching your
FPV camera, your first-person view

that's mounted
there on the drone.

It looks like that drone was
just really taking a beating.

ERIK: Yeah, you can see that

in the lower right...
Thomas was referring to it...

you'll see it bob up and down.

TRAVIS: Oh, wow, look at that.

Well, if it jumps that much,
what in the world? Look at that!

- How are you controlling that?
- Yeah, what's going on there?

TRAVIS: Oh, but
look where you are.

Looks like you're
right at the barrier wall.

You're right
about at that point.

You're exactly
right. It looked like...

- TRAVIS: Look at that!
- I mean, it was shaking.

TRAVIS: The drone is shaking
as it tries to enter the bubble.

- That right there is fascinating.
- Yeah.

ERIK: We have the
corresponding GPS

- tracking data that we can look at...
- TRAVIS: Oh, yeah.

- That goes with all of this.
- ROYSTON: Perfect.

Um, what you'll see

is that in many instances,

when you are reporting errors,

I'm getting these
data corruption errors.

So, let's see here.

TRAVIS: So, look
right there at the barrier,

you see... start
seeing loss of data.

And look right at the corner

where you're getting
closer to the bubble wall.

Yeah, look at that,
right at the corner.

ROYSTON: Yeah, you can
see that we were touching it.

TRAVIS: And look. Right
as it gets at the corner,

it turns red.

Like the data's
corrupted right there.

ROYSTON: Talk
about poking the bubble.

We literally
touched it right there.

And that's where
it all happened.

You know, I-I wouldn't
put a lot of stock in it

if it weren't for the fact that
this was happening again...

- and again and again.
- Yes. Right. -I know.

- All of our error points are painting this picture.
- Yeah.

- TRAVIS: That is just unbelievable.
- Wow.

TRAVIS: Once again, when
Jim Royston's drone tried

to enter the bubble's
southern wall,

its GPS data was corrupted,

and the drone got
physically stopped

from crossing
through the barrier.

Now, we don't know yet if the
UAPs we saw last night came

from something
inside the bubble.

But it makes you wonder.

Could the bubble be stopping
the drone from entering it,

and preventing us

from discovering the
source of the UAPs?

Well, the data are
coming together

in such a way that
it's becoming natural

for us to talk about the
bubble wall as if it is a thing.

You beat me to it.

ROYSTON: Yeah, definitely.

So, what else you got, Erik?

ERIK: So, we are
simultaneously tracking,

in real time, the GPS position
of the drone and the Jeep.

- KALEB: Okay.
- ERIK: This is when you were heading out

to Homestead Two just as
we started the experiment.

The yellow is the
data from the drone,

and the blue is the
data from the Jeep.

Look at the missing

GPS data from the Jeep
over by Homestead Two.

Look at that huge
gap right there.

ERIK: Let's take a look.

Something was
driving the data down

below ground, you
know, hundreds of feet.

THOMAS: Whoa.

That is interesting.

ERIK: Yeah, and
going back to the data

that we collected with
Jay Stratton in 2022.

You recall, as we
were driving the Jeep...

- Oh, yeah.
- In this very same area,

something was driving the
GPS data down below ground

- hundreds of feet.
- TRAVIS: Mm-hmm.

That's exactly right.

Two years ago,

Jay Stratton, who investigated
the ranch in the early 2000s

for the federal government,
came out to show us where

his team experienced
phenomena near Homestead Two.

Later, as we reviewed the data

from the GPS
tracker on our Jeep...

The data went way underground.

Wow.

TRAVIS: we
were stunned to see

that the data dove
deep underground.

And now it happened again
during our experiment last night

in the same spot at the
western boundary of the bubble.

How in the world
can this barrier stop us

from collecting data?

Do we have anything else, Erik?

So, I have some
still-frame images

that are built from
long exposure.

These show the laser cannons
that were in the east field.

You know, obviously,
given what we saw last night,

we're all very interested in
whether we see any kinds

of unusual effects in
the beams themselves.

- Mm-hmm.
- Can you zoom in on that?

Look at that.

- There is a gap in the green laser beam.
- KALEB: Whoa.

- What the hell?
- Exactly.

TRAVIS: Look at that.

There is a gap in
the green laser beam.

- What the hell?
- Exactly.

TRAVIS: These lasers
are right by each other.

I mean, literally
inches from each other.

ERIK: Yeah.

And it didn't stop the blue

- or the red, only the green.
- KALEB: Yeah.

And it's the same
thing we saw last year.

TRAVIS: That's outside
the bubble boundary.

Wow.

Kaleb's exactly right.

During an experiment last year

using the Nu-Salt
lasers at the triangle,

something blocked
out a small section

only in their green laser beam.

But that was inside the bubble.

- Whoa. -ROYSTON: Whoa.
- KALEB: No.

What could be doing that?

And now, the exact same
thing happened last night

just outside the
bubble's eastern barrier.

This is why we used
different colored laser beams.

To see if they would
be affected differently.

But now the question is why?

- Well, that's repeatable.
- ERIK: And I have even more

to show you from the laser
cannons in the east field.

- So, here's another...
- TRAVIS: What is that

- in the blue beam there?
- Mm-hmm.

ERIK: I'm going to zoom in.

Okay.

TRAVIS: Something moved

and created that distortion

in the beam right there.

KALEB: So that beam that's
being interrupted right there...

- that's the same beam in the east field canyons.
- Yes.

- That we just saw with the other break in it?
- Oh.

That's a good point.

Look at the shape.

TRAVIS: There's
a cube right there.

KALEB: Like a cube
or a square object.

- This is fascinating.
- Wow.

TRAVIS: To now see a
break in the blue beam,

is it possible that
it was an object,

a craft, or something else,

that we got snapshots of

as it went through both
the green and blue beams?

If so, what was it?

And where did it come from?

- ERIK: But wait.
- TRAVIS: But wait.

There's more.

Okay, what is this one?

ERIK: Yeah, this is
surveillance footage

of something moving in
that general region of the sky.

KALEB: There's two of 'em.

ERIK: You see
what's going on here?

How about I dive in on it?

- Yeah.
- Zoom in.

KALEB: Yeah.

THOMAS: And then,
one of them disappeared.

- Yeah.
- Let's just keep watching this one.

TRAVIS: Okay.

- TRAVIS: Wow.
- KALEB: Whoa.

TRAVIS: And it
vanished right there.

Let's play that again.

TRAVIS: Whatever
these two things are here,

they don't seem to look

like your typical
low-earth orbiting satellites.

It's moving too slow and
with a different kind of motion.

Well, it certainly isn't
in lower orbit because

the rate of travel
here is far too slow,

- and there are no aviation lights.
- No aviation lights.

TRAVIS: Was one
or both of these UAPs

- what flew through the laser beams?
- Yeah.

So, go back to
three minutes, Erik.

There's a lot of stuff going
on here, and I just saw

a really bright
flash, too, so...

TRAVIS: Oh, there was
a flash. There was a flash.

- Back up, Erik.
- Okay.

TRAVIS: And then there's
that flash. What is that?

Where is that light
coming from? What?

Holy crap. I don't
know what the flash

in the east field
could have been,

but it seemed to appear right
at the same time as the UAPs.

Could that have been
where they came from?

And if so, how might it
be related to the bubble?

As always, I'm in a
state of bewilderment.

In awe.

You know, we see things
inside and outside the bubble.

ERIK: Listen, I
want to bring Bryan

and Preston from Sky Elements

back out here, and I think
this is an area of interest.

I think it would make sense for
us to just conduct an experiment

with drones on either side

- of that boundary of the bubble.
- ROYSTON: Yup.

TRAVIS: And we want
to watch what they do

when they are in these locations

inside and outside of
the bubble, all right?

All right, guys, this was a
fantastic review. Fantastic.

- Yeah. -Wow.
- All right.

TRAVIS: Great stuff.

- ERIK: Thank you.
- TRAVIS: Yup.

ERIK: As we continue
to expand the scope and scale

of this investigation
of the bubble

and its response to energetic
events, much more often,

we're seeing with frequency
and with repetition,

electromagnetic interference.

Could this bubble be responsible

for all of the strange things

that are happening
on the property?

BRANDON: The bubble anomaly
above the property

may be the mechanism
or that which is responsible

for the strange
electromagnetic anomalies

and the equipment malfunctions
we continue to see.

My hope is to find answers,

to be able to understand
the nature of the bubble

and why it exists
on Skinwalker Ranch.
