UFOs: Investigating the Unknown

Without drawing outlandish conclusions, this very thorough documentary reviews the overwhelming evidence supported by scientists and highly trained military and aeronautical witnesses, and the complete lack of response (to the point of obfuscation) by the US government. In addition to detailing many of the most prominent sightings, this report notes that other countries around the world do indeed consider this phenomenon worth serious investigation and have set up government agencies to accumulate and evaluate the data.

There are no actors, only the actual people involved in dealing with UFO'S, be it as witnesses, as scientists, or as government responding (or not) to these incidents. Very informative and up-to-date chronicle of what we do know and what we have been allowed to know.

Tha Truth IS out there!

A lot of what is being presented in this series I had no idea was going on. I was in junior high in the 60's. A lot of information that was new to me right up to the end. I watched at least two if not three parts at a time. Giving me time to think about what I had heard and processing the information. It has a lot of older interviews which I actually enjoyed. It has me thinking about other things in our world and in our lives that can't be explained. I am so glad I watched this because, even being older film viewed in it, it still had a lot to tell that does not change over time. Give it a try and see if it is worth the time for you to view. So glad I did!

Because of the way this short series was put together, it captured my attention when I came across it randomly, ealing intelligently with an important issue. I guess the part that got me was having Kirsten Gillibrand (sp?) talking straight to camera emphasizing that this was a legitimate topic to discuss and investigate, and more than that, was an issue of national security. Many other credible witnesses too.

This series was well-made and deserves a second (and third) series, keeping it the facts and credible. A refreshing change from the endless, over-produced History channel series on the same topic.

First season and some part of the second season was great. They had militar staff, Navy people and pilots talking about possible UFOs, everyone was very credible and the stuff they talked about was super interesting making the audience curious about all the cases.

But during the 2md season, they start showing random people that say they had encounters with aliens and we all know they are lying, these are crazy people lacking attention. No one wants to waste time listening to these people. If they keep making episodes like this it's better to cancel the show.

The show was very serious in the first season but in the 2nd season becomes a circus show.

This is more of a historical look at UFOs. If you are remotely educated on the subject, this will highly disappoint you. It's basically a rehashing of the major instances that the government and UFO organizations looked at. A whole episode on the glorification of J Allen Hyneck made me write this review. I am so disappointed they decided to barely touch on major UFO sightings and instead decided to focus on the investigators in a historical context. The show comes off as self serving and dull. I commend all these investigators for all they have done to advance research into this subject but I don't need to be force fed it.
