Episodes
The CIA's UFO Admission
Similar to the FBI, the CIA have kept secrets hidden from the public on a wide range of topics. Richard Dolan reveals information on a secret CIA memo from August 1952 outlining the incredible documentation of UFOs reaching amazing speeds. The CIA also documents the characteristics, shape, and sizes of these UFOs, some of which were said to be gigantic. Further official documents state that the general public must never know about CIA interests regarding UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena).
The Year UFO Secrecy Nearly Ended!
Experiences with UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) reached an all-time high in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Richard Dolan describes how hundreds if not thousands of UFOs were sighted in the skies over the United States in 1952. This resulted in 1952 earning the title 'The Year of the Flying Saucer'. Dolan also examines the incredible UFO sighting by Dan A. Kimball, 'the 51st U.S. Secretary of the Navy'
Contact vs. Abduction
What is the difference between contact and abduction, and do these modern occurrences have historical correlations? Richard Dolan explores strange contact cases from throughout the centuries. From angelic biblical encounters through history to the infamous Fatima incident of 1917, Dolan draws links between fairy encounters and extraterrestrial contact. Dolan also examines the alien abduction phenomena, regressive hypnosis, medical examinations, and the alleged alien/human hybrid program.
The Curious Case of the CIA Director Roscoe Hillenkoetter
Throughout history there have been insiders who have tried to deliver hidden truths to the public. In this episode, Richard Dolan reveals the relationship between CIA Director Roscoe Hillenkoetter and UFO investigative author Donald Keyhoe of the organization NICAP (National Investigations Committee On Aerial Phenomena). Dolan explains Hillenkoetter's great interests into UFOs and how he assisted Keyhoe in an attempt to obtain congressional hearings on the subject.
Waving At Friendly Aliens
Despite many well-documented first-hand experiences of UAP, few involve interaction or multiple witnesses. Richard Dolan describes an unusual incident in 1959 that unfolded in New Guinea, when many witnesses (including well-known priest Reverend Gill) witnessed a disc shaped craft hovering in the sky. According to witnesses, there were beings standing atop the craft, seemingly working on something. Witnesses even said they were able to wave back and forth with the beings aboard the craft in a friendly matter.
Failed UAP Recovery in the Pacific
Several documented military operations resulted in direct experiences with UAP. Richard Dolan describes the details of high-altitude nuclear detonation tests carried out by the U.S. military, known as 'Operation Dominic'. During October of 1962 the ship USS Finch was in the vicinity of one such test, which resulted in the downing of a UFO. Though military vessels were quick to where the craft was underwater, their attempts to recover the strange craft failed.
Senator Goldwater's Encounter with UFO Secrecy
Despite the best intentions of several US leaders, attempts to disclose government data regarding UAP have been continually obstructed. Richard Dolan reveals information on the history of U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater's interest in the UFO phenomena. Although Goldwater attempted to obtain sensitive information on official studies being carried out by the military, Dolan explains the Senator's enquiries were quickly shut down.
Is There a Breakaway Civilization?
If humanity has a secret space program, there are questions as to its origins. Richard Dolan explores information on secret space programs, and their potential connections with UFOs. Dolan explains they would be the product of a ‘Breakaway Civilization' and not simply the US military or NASA. Dolan discusses the likelihood of these radically advanced and increasingly separate structures with access to classified science and data denied to the general public.
