00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:20.280
Welcome to Destiny. Now here's your
host, Cliff Dunning. I don't know

2
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:24.359
what it is, but it seems
like our modern society is out of touch

3
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:30.359
with the cosmos, with the elements, with nature, and we're fighting it.

4
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:38.159
And when we look at our ancestors, and also other communities, other

5
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:45.280
cultures like the Maya and the pre
dynastic and dynastic Egyptians, and the early

6
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:51.560
ancient Chinese and other ancient cultures,
or they were in harmony with nature and

7
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:59.119
they lived by the cycles. They
built observatories to measure the seasons and look

8
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:03.879
at the earth from an energetic point
of view. And I've mentioned this before.

9
00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:10.040
It's coming to light that the at
least in the Maya civilization, early

10
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:17.480
Maya, they built their cities based
on constellations and connections. And we can

11
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:23.920
take that one step further. They
actually have bits and pieces of data on

12
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:29.359
working with star people. Now we
know the Hopee and the Zooni through different

13
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:36.000
elders we've had on the program,
describe their work, describe communicating and meeting

14
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:41.640
with star people, and it just
seems that this was very natural for them

15
00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:48.040
to connect with these off world beings
because there was a connection an energetic connection

16
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:53.879
that we've lost, and this is
what we're dealing with today in our so

17
00:01:53.959 --> 00:02:00.159
called modern civilization or modern culture,
is a lack of awareness for subtle energy,

18
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:07.760
for the energetics of the cosmos,
constellations, the planets. I mean,

19
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:13.039
we get a little bit of when
we talk about astrology and we are

20
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:19.199
walking among these megalists that are aligned
with lay lines, geomagnetic t lyric fields

21
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:23.479
that bubble up, and we connect
with that. But why are we not

22
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:32.560
having enough connection with UAPs UFOs the
beings. Some suspect they are anthropologists who

23
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:38.840
come and visit and view us and
land in many places and in very rare

24
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:46.400
cases leave their ships to come out
and meet with humanity. And unfortunately,

25
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:50.199
we're just not getting enough of that
because we probably scare the hell out of

26
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:55.199
being that's a thousand or more years
in advance of us, because we're dangerous.

27
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:01.879
You know. The Americans are shoot
first, ask questions later. This

28
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:08.319
is how they approach the whole ufo
phenomena. So how the hell can these

29
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:16.439
otherworldly beings leave their ships and want
to meet with us? We do see

30
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:24.000
this and we hear about it in
Central America in some spots in Mexico and

31
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:30.439
in South America. It hasn't been
recent, but there's been cases documented of

32
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:38.520
alien ship, alien ships landing,
the occupants getting out, greeting the local

33
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:46.479
individual here or there, and in
some cases they are invited up into the

34
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:51.599
ship. Now it's becoming, like
I said, very difficult to see this

35
00:03:51.759 --> 00:04:03.280
because this attitude of fear and violence
against these aliens is very very much in

36
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:08.400
our society. This is what we
It's not that what we it's not what

37
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:11.800
we preach, but we have a
great fear of this, and we have

38
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:16.800
to get over this. And we've
had people on the program that have said,

39
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:21.160
we will eventually get over it,
and we will be in a state

40
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:29.199
of mind where we can greet these
space brothers, these these people that live

41
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:35.360
likely on neighboring planets. You know, you know, I wouldn't be surprised

42
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:41.079
if Mars had a community of people. And it's been speculated that under the

43
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:47.319
surface of Mars there is a civilization, so and who knows how sophisticated they

44
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:53.480
are. Another thing that's very interesting, and we've hinted on it is under

45
00:04:53.519 --> 00:05:00.519
ocean craft or communities. Under our
ocean, there's more water than there is

46
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.680
land, and there are documented the
events of ships flying out of the water,

47
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:12.480
ships plunging into the water and going
who knows where. This is something

48
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:16.920
to consider. So are they waiting
for us to reveal ourselves to be more

49
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:26.160
pleasant and accepting of their being here
in their ships? Well, right now

50
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:30.800
it's not happening. We're just not
ready for it. So when that day

51
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:35.480
comes, I will rejoice. I
will rejoice. My guest today is Micah

52
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:41.879
Hanks. He is a research investigator
who's written a number of books, and

53
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:48.399
he is also the MC for the
upcoming Cosmic Summit June fifteenth and sixteenth's going

54
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:53.600
to be held at Greenboro, North
Carolina, and this is not to be

55
00:05:53.680 --> 00:06:00.800
missed. We're promoting this event and
it's also we're promoting the streaming media so

56
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:05.800
you can hear people like Randallcarlson,
Robert Schock, Pravin Mohan, Scott Walter,

57
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:10.720
and on and on and on.
They've got a great lineup, and

58
00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:14.120
you know, it's really hard to
get to these places, but you can

59
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:20.480
now get all the information by going
to Cosmicsummit dot com, Forward slash Earth

60
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:29.040
Ancients. So we're gonna learn today
about the latest details of the latest governmental

61
00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:34.199
cover up of UAPs. They're alien
occupants and some of the latest information.

62
00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:42.439
And my guest today is Micah Hanks, and the program is UAPs and First

63
00:06:42.560 --> 00:07:23.240
Contact. This is conference season,
and of course we are a sponsor of

64
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:27.560
Cosmic Summit, which is coming up
June fifteenth and sixteenth, is going to

65
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:31.759
be held in Greensboro, North Carolina. And not only do they have a

66
00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:40.120
superior quite a well connected the presenters, it is in a great location and

67
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:44.639
it is really quite a great deal. If you need more information about that,

68
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:48.240
it's Cosmic Summit dot com Forward slash
Earth Ancients. We'll get more into

69
00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:55.199
that in a minute. We have
the MC for this conference. His name

70
00:07:55.279 --> 00:08:01.040
is Micah Hanks, and he is
quite a interesting guy. I have to

71
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:05.240
tell you he's written three books.
I didn't know this he's noted. Books

72
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:11.519
are The Ghost Rockets, The Complete
Guide to Maverick Podcasting, and then Magic

73
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:18.839
Mysticism and The Molecule. But when
I have a Micah on the program,

74
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:22.959
not only to talk about the conference, but he is a ufologist. And

75
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.399
whenever I can get somebody on the
program who really has been doing deep dives,

76
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:33.600
I do it because I am a
bit of an interested individual myself.

77
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.080
I'm not a ufologist, but I
have had a lot of people on the

78
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:43.080
program and also in conferences around San
Francisco Bay area to know what's going on,

79
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:48.600
what's the deal. My big issue
is land your craft come out and

80
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.519
say hi. But we're going to
find out today why. It's not that

81
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.320
simple. So Mike, I welcome
to Destiny. Great to see you.

82
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.279
It's wonderful to be here. Cliff
as always good to see you as well,

83
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:07.960
Sir fantastic. I was looking at
your podcast and you are really taking

84
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:13.399
a deep dive into some of the
latest and greatest material. What's your interest?

85
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:18.679
Did you have you had a lifelong
interest or is it something happened in

86
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:22.480
your life where you said I have
to know more about this. Well,

87
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.879
I certainly have had a lifelong interest. And the other question everybody always asks

88
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:31.639
is have you seen one of these
objects yourself? Have you seen something in

89
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.240
our skies that you can't explain?
And I got to tell you, when

90
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.240
I was about five years old,
I did see a mysterious light in the

91
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.679
sky. I was convinced that it
was a UFO, and I went to

92
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:43.320
school the next day and I was
talking to a friend of my Brandy,

93
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:46.320
and she and I were sitting there, probably you know, working with construction

94
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.039
paper and doing stuff like kindergartner's do. And I said, I think I

95
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.840
saw a UFO last night, and
she said, oh, no, that

96
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:54.879
was the pizza Huts sign. They
were just you know, advertising to get

97
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:58.679
people to come pick up pizza.
Now, I asked my mom and dad,

98
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:00.519
I said, did you see that
light last it's not and they said,

99
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.360
honey, it was an airplane.
So in my mind's eye I remember

100
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:07.600
it so vividly, but looking back
and reflecting, you know, I agree

101
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:11.440
with mom and dad it was probably
just my young imagination. But the more

102
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:15.200
significant takeaway here is that, I
mean, at that age, I knew

103
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.360
a what a UFO was. B
I was really intrigued about it, and

104
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:22.639
I wanted, you know, to
continue to study this, and so naturally

105
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.519
I started checking out books from the
library things like that. I even wrote

106
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.519
a report at one point for the
I think I was in third grade at

107
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:33.759
this point, but I wrote a
report on this and my teacher gave me

108
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:35.279
a b and said, you did
a great job with the investigation. The

109
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:41.240
problem is, this is a subject
that science doesn't really accept as being part

110
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.600
of our cumulative knowledge about the universe, and so you know, we're going

111
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.320
to say you did a good job
on the report, Micah, but we're

112
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.120
taking off points for factual merit.
And so at that point I kind of

113
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.559
said, challenge accepted, and no
kidding. If I have stayed with this

114
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.600
subject ever since, and being somebody
who studied it for a long time,

115
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:01.080
often trying to look at it with
a critical mind and not leading with presumptions

116
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.080
about what these things are where they're
from, it was a real eye opener,

117
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:07.320
I think for all of us back
in twenty seventeen when we saw on

118
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.320
the front page of the New York
Times this article saying, guess what.

119
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:15.759
The US Department of Defense has maintained
an interest in this, despite what their

120
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:20.440
official statement on that on their website
had been for years, and indeed they

121
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.279
were continuing to evaluate these phenomena.
And that remains true today with the recent

122
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:28.159
establishment of the All Domain Anomaly Resolution
Office. So again there's a lot happening

123
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.759
in this field, and for someone
who has studied this my entire life trying

124
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.240
to understand the nuances of it in
all aspects of what it could mean,

125
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:39.919
it's a really exciting time to be
involved in this area. Yeah, would

126
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:46.159
you say that the DoD, Department
of Defense, and perhaps NASA, which

127
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:52.360
I believe has been weaponized and is
also working with the DoD, has greater

128
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:58.720
knowledge than what they're leading on to. I certainly think that the DoD does

129
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:05.960
well. You know, NASA was
tasked recently with this this UAP study.

130
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.120
There was a UAP study group,
and I think that they, you know,

131
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:11.399
with taxpayer money, did very little
more after several months, in about

132
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:16.519
one hundred thousand dollars, they did
very little more than just make some recommendations

133
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.360
about well, going forward, here
are some things we could do to improve

134
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:24.840
UAP research. And NASA also officially
designated a director of UAP Research within that

135
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:28.600
agency. They for years, of
course, have said that they don't have

136
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.799
any additional information, but that they
have resources that might be useful if the

137
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:35.080
DoD is trying to track these things. The DoD, on the other hand,

138
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.120
and again there are some who maintain
NASA does indeed no more. But

139
00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:43.600
I think that it's pretty evident that
the intelligence community certainly knows more than what

140
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:48.120
the public is being told. There
are certain things that are being studied right

141
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:52.480
now by the DoD's arrow, as
it's called, All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office,

142
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:58.240
that probably are very good indicators that
there are genuine unknowns and that this

143
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.399
has really been what everybody is suspected
for a long time. Unfortunately, they

144
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:05.080
tend to emphasize the things that they
deem to be knowns. You know,

145
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:09.399
they put out a new report,
and in every instance the reports that they

146
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:13.480
publish involve the things that they think
that they can pretty well explain what they

147
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:16.960
I think in journalism we would call
this burying the lead. But I think

148
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:20.679
what they like to state less obviously, is that at least two to five

149
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.919
percent of the objects that they've been
studying and collecting information about, they have

150
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:28.120
no idea what these things are.
And so in addition to that being a

151
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:31.919
national security concern, but a lot
of long time researchers have said, well

152
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:35.519
or not if some of these things
might have off planet origins, if these

153
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.600
things could be extraterrestrial craft, I
mean, how's the DoD going to handle

154
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.080
that? And if they make that
determination, are they going to come forward

155
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:43.919
and tell the public, Hey,
guys, we found something in our sky,

156
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:46.200
and you know, we got to
tell you. We think that the

157
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.000
evidence points to these things being extraterrestrial. Can we really expect that they'll tell

158
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:56.639
us that. I'm not so sure. You're familiar with the Brookings document where

159
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.159
the military back in the nineteen sixties, I don't even would think through the

160
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:07.000
CIA was around that it had just
been launched. But they did this evaluation

161
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.639
of the United States citizens and they
came to the conclusion that we just can't

162
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:15.360
handle it, that we would kill
ourselves, and so forth and so on.

163
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.879
And it feels to me that there's
still adherent they're still holding on to

164
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:26.639
that problem given all the social media
and the openness that our society is.

165
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.919
What is It's a disconnect to me? Does it? Don't you feel like

166
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.799
it's a disconnect? Certainly? Do
you know? The Brookings Institute report that

167
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:43.159
you're referring to again basically concluded that
without specific reference necessarily to a UFO revelation,

168
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:46.399
they said, if it were learned
by the American public or really the

169
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:50.720
entire world, that extraterrestrials existed and
that they were coming to planet Earth,

170
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.559
that essentially there'd be societal collapse.
You know, the major religions would all

171
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.240
go to the wayside. It would
be quite a system up set and or

172
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.080
reset for team civilization. And I
do think that many people still hold that

173
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.919
view. I'll tell you an interesting
story one of the most recent times.

174
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:11.360
I was visiting the West coast,
out in your neck of the woods there,

175
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:16.120
Cliff. I'd been at a wedding
and two of the guests and attendants

176
00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:20.320
happened to be FBI agents. And
so the couple who was getting married good

177
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.519
friends of mine. They knew Mike
is going to want to talk to these

178
00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:26.039
FBI agents. And dinner they seat
me at the table with them, and

179
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:30.679
they were lovely, by the way, and so naturally the conversation veered off

180
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:33.720
in the direction of UFOs and I
asked these FBI agents, I said,

181
00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:39.039
you know, what's your take on
all this? And you know, specifically,

182
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.159
how would the bureau respond to this
information? In other words, if

183
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:48.720
you had access to information that unequivocally
showed that there were extraterrestrial craft operating in

184
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:52.120
our atmosphere, how would the FBI
respond to that? Would you tell the

185
00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.480
public about that? And I mean
there was no hesitation, Cliff. They

186
00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.960
said absolutely not. They said,
our job, You've got to keep in

187
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:00.879
mind, is to know, first
of all, protect the little guy.

188
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:04.279
Right, we're tracking down people who
are trying to scam people out of money

189
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:08.360
and doing things like this, but
we're also trying to preserve the American way

190
00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:12.399
of life. And if ever we
were aware of information that might cause severe

191
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:18.799
concerns, distress, breakdowns of societal
institutions, no, we would not explain

192
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.399
to the public what that was.
We would attempt to try and cover that

193
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:25.279
up. So now that was just
the opinion of those two agents, But

194
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:27.200
I mean, it seemed to be
very much in line with those past studies

195
00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:30.879
and some current views that you know, maybe people can't handle the truth.

196
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:34.240
And you know, I keep hearing
that there are officials right now who keep

197
00:16:34.279 --> 00:16:40.399
saying that maybe the public, you
know, shouldn't know exactly what's going on

198
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:44.360
here. Tim Burchett, who's a
representative in Tennessee, and he's a member

199
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:48.440
of the fairly loosely knit group of
people congressmen and women that call them sort

200
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.399
of the UAP Caucus. Burchette said
that he had actually been approached by somebody

201
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:55.480
up there on Capitol Hill who said, you know, Tim, really the

202
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:57.480
truth is the American people they shouldn't
know about this, because if they did,

203
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.000
I don't think they'd be able to
handle it. People would be losing

204
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:03.680
their minds if they really knew what
was going on. I think I'm more

205
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:07.200
like the character played by Tom Cruise
in the film A Few Good Men.

206
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:11.519
I think we can handle the truth. But again, you know, a

207
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:18.480
lot of people seem to think maybe
we don't. UAP Caucus in Congress.

208
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:25.000
I haven't heard of them. Were
they the ones that formed the committee that

209
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:32.680
interviewed those ex intelligent Was it David
Grusher or Grush? Were they part of

210
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:37.359
that team? Yes, So a
bit of background on this. Of course,

211
00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:41.079
since twenty seventeen, there's been the
revelation that the DD has been involved

212
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:44.799
in investigations into all of this.
In twenty twenty, we had the establishment,

213
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:48.200
under the cognizance of the Department of
the Navy, the UAP Task Force,

214
00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:52.039
and that only operated for a while, but it produced a significant report

215
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:55.000
that was released by the Office of
the Director of National Intelligence that said,

216
00:17:55.039 --> 00:18:00.240
yes, there are unknowns that seem
to display some pretty extraordinary capabilities. Then

217
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.359
at the direction of Congress, because
there was actually a bill that was included

218
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.359
in the National Defense Authorization Act that
was passed, I believe in twenty twenty

219
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:12.119
two. Actually, there have been
legislation in several subsequent NDAAs that had been

220
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:18.119
passed over the last few years,
but the bill in question is what directed

221
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.799
the establishment of the All Domain Anomaly
Resolution Office. Now, last June,

222
00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:27.079
there was an article that was published
by my team's publication, The Debrief dot

223
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:30.799
or Guy. I'm a co founder
and creator of the Debrief, and two

224
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.440
authors who had previously written they were
actually contributors to the New York Times piece

225
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.720
in twenty seventeen, Leslie Kane and
Ralph Blumenthal. They authored this piece that

226
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:44.079
we published, and that was the
piece that brought to public attention for the

227
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:48.599
first time the claims of David Grush. Why we thought that was significant was

228
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:53.359
because, in addition to of course
the extraordinary nature of the claims he was

229
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:56.519
making, he was saying that there
were craft of non human origin that the

230
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:03.319
DoD had in its possession. There
had been a Intelligence Community Inspector General complaint

231
00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:07.279
and this is absolutely fact. It
was officially filed. And when this came

232
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:10.359
to the attention of members of Congress, indeed they called for hearings. And

233
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:14.400
so yes, the UAP caucus that
you were asking about, they rather quickly

234
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:18.880
assembled a congressional hearing in which mister
Grush and then also two former Navy pilots,

235
00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:23.680
Dave Fraver and Ryan Graves. They
all gave testimony under oath, stating

236
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:27.400
not only that they had had these
past experiences, as you know members of

237
00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:32.359
military, but also that the intelligence
official present, mister Grush, had said,

238
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:36.880
Yeah, I provided hundreds of pages
of classified information to the intelligence community

239
00:19:36.920 --> 00:19:40.920
spector General that seems to support the
idea that there is some kind of a

240
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.400
program and that the US has been
collecting these craft. Yeah, and it

241
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:52.720
was pretty groundbreaking what Grish had to
say, simply because he's in the intelligence

242
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:57.400
community. But I didn't feel that
there was anything that came out of that.

243
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:03.799
I mean, Congress moves very slowly, and it wasn't I wasn't feeling

244
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:07.160
like, you know, what's the
follow up. I didn't hear any of

245
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:11.920
the congressmen and women say, Okay, we're gonna take this and we're going

246
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:18.839
to create another committee. We're gonna
determine who these dark programs are, who's

247
00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:22.279
behind them? What do you have
to say? What's your feeling on any

248
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:27.119
follow up to that interview with Groose? So you're asking a really good question,

249
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:34.200
Cliff, because the problem is the
official office tasked with investigating UAP was

250
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:41.400
also tasked with conducting a historical review, and so exactly what you're asking is

251
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.920
what many people have been saying recently. It would really appropriately require a congressional

252
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:51.319
investigation to probably get to the bottom
of what's going on. That has not

253
00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:55.599
happened yet. What ended up happening
was a subordinate office, the ARROW that

254
00:20:55.599 --> 00:21:00.359
I've talked about, the altomin and
Homaly Resolution Office, which has supposedly access

255
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:04.119
to all information on UAP. Again, UAP is just the new term for

256
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:10.160
UFOs that means unidentified anomalist phenomena.
But when I say UAP or UFO were

257
00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:12.279
essentially talking about the same thing,
and that's what the ded's been investigating.

258
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:19.000
When AERO was launched, they were
tasked with conducting a historical review going all

259
00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:25.039
the way back to nineteen forty five
to try and determine if there was evidence

260
00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:30.079
of a program like what David Grush
has discussed. And the problem with their

261
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:32.839
report which just came out the first
volume. At least there is going to

262
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:37.240
be a second volume issued probably later
this year, if not early next year.

263
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:40.359
But the first volume was rife with
errors. I mean, just to

264
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:41.720
give you a few examples of some
of the problems that we were seeing in

265
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:48.000
this report. The first mainstream significant
UFO siding by Pilot Kenneth Arnold back in

266
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:52.319
nineteen forty seven. The date that
they given the report, they're off by

267
00:21:52.359 --> 00:21:56.200
a day. They misstate the name
of a program that was carried out by

268
00:21:56.240 --> 00:22:00.799
the Betel Memorial Institute to investigate the
US Air Forces Project Blue Book cases that

269
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:03.920
were collected early on at the name
of that program wrong. They got the

270
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:07.400
name of one of the former directors
of Project blue Book wrong. And there

271
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:11.240
were myriad other issues in the report
too. In fact, a former defense

272
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:15.079
official, Christopher Mellen, authored a
very lengthy article kind of going down very

273
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:19.359
granular analysis that he did of all
the problems in this report, and he

274
00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:22.960
published that over at the debrief Our
website. And so a lot of people

275
00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:26.599
have taken issue with this investigation,
and they have further said, look,

276
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:30.279
if Aero, I mean, did
such a lackluster job on this historical report,

277
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.720
I mean, how much faith can
we really have in their broader investigations.

278
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:38.200
So again to your point, many
are saying, now appropriately Congress should

279
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:42.559
investigate this. They shouldn't leave this
to an office that has already demonstrated that

280
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:47.960
they aren't doing the best job that
they possibly could investigating this, and thereby

281
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:51.880
we can't really have a whole lot
of faith in their ability to convey the

282
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.440
meaningful information that the government may possess. I think it really will ultimately be

283
00:22:55.519 --> 00:23:03.559
up to Congress. I mean,
were you happy on that congressional meeting with

284
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:07.200
Grush? I mean, it was
kind of an eye opener for many people.

285
00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:11.720
But being an ufologist being in this, I know that I thought it

286
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:17.000
was a nice start, but as
you said, it could be buried almost

287
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:22.039
instantly. If not currently, you
know, we'll never hear any follow up

288
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:26.119
again. Yeah, I think that
again, it was a good beginning point

289
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:30.839
because what we had there were some
very extraordinary assertions made by mister Grush,

290
00:23:30.920 --> 00:23:36.160
namely that indeed non human intelligences.
He felt that there was good evidence that

291
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:40.279
supported their existence and also an awareness
by the God of their existence, and

292
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:44.319
he said this under oath. And
I think that there's been a lot of

293
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:52.039
confusion because there was a recent series
of email communications between AERO leadership and the

294
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:56.200
whistleblower, mister Grush that were released
through a Freedom of Information Act request that

295
00:23:56.359 --> 00:24:00.839
was, you know, the documents
were sent to a On Greenwald of the

296
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:03.480
Black Vault, who's kind of legendary
in terms of his investigations into this.

297
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:10.119
But these correspondences showed that Grush,
after that congressional hearing, had been reached

298
00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:12.079
out to by AERO leadership numerous times
and they tried to get him to come

299
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:15.319
in and to do an interview and
talk about what he found. Now,

300
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:19.759
what he conveys in those emails,
Cliff, is that he had serious concerns

301
00:24:19.759 --> 00:24:23.400
about whether ARO had the authorities that
they needed to be able to receive this

302
00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:26.799
classified information. And although they've tried
to make it look like, well,

303
00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:30.319
he wouldn't come talk to us,
so in truth, it seems like he

304
00:24:30.319 --> 00:24:32.880
doesn't you know, probably know anything, and he doesn't want to convey this

305
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:36.720
information. Quite the contrary what these
emails show, and this is exactly what

306
00:24:36.759 --> 00:24:41.599
came out during those congressional hearings.
To your question, Grush had said numerous

307
00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:44.279
times to members of Congress, Listen, I'll talk with you about this in

308
00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:48.559
a controlled in a you know,
a skiff, right, a secure compartmented

309
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:52.440
information facility. Right. He's saying, if we are in an appropriate environment,

310
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.759
I can tell you certain things.
I can't talk about that in a

311
00:24:55.799 --> 00:25:00.440
public hearing being telecast across the world. And furthermore, to the Arrow instigators

312
00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:02.359
who kept saying, come talk to
us, Come tell us what you know,

313
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:03.119
he said, look, I need
to know if you guys have the

314
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:08.079
authority who received this information. The
official terminology for this would be what's called

315
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:14.119
Title fifty. It would essentially enable
ERO to be able to obtain information that

316
00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:18.519
would be you know, for instance, from IC Intelligence community officials and what

317
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.839
have you. Now, AERO has
repeatedly said that they have access to all

318
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:26.240
the UAP information, so there shouldn't
be a problem. But Gresh said,

319
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:30.680
the problem is that there are other
elements of this program that are not necessarily

320
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:36.920
relative relative exclusivity exclusively to UAP,
And you guys don't have the authority to

321
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:38.920
be able to receive this classified information. I can't come talk to you.

322
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:41.759
So he said, go to the
Inspector General, see if they'll just give

323
00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:45.519
you a copy of my complaint.
And they wouldn't, which seems to suggest,

324
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.160
indeed, that there were things in
that complaint that AERO did not have

325
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.559
the authority to receive, and so
to me again it comes back to the

326
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:55.480
question of, well, we've got
a good start with Congress, but they're

327
00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:56.440
going to have to follow up on
this, and there's going to have to

328
00:25:56.480 --> 00:26:00.079
be some kind of a formal investigation
if we ever really want to get the

329
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:06.240
bottom of this. I would love
a non military committee to be formed with

330
00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:12.839
perhaps scientists and anthropologists or other people
who are studying different species. I think

331
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:17.599
it would get more data. I
think it would be a much better broader

332
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.599
swipe at the whole phenomenon. What
do you believe was the purpose of rebranding

333
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:32.359
UFO to UAP And my thought initially
was that they wanted to discover who the

334
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:36.880
beans were that were operating these craft. Now I don't think it's that.

335
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:42.400
I think it's more they're interested because
there's a military view. They're more interested

336
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:49.200
in the propulsion systems and the technology. But what's your take on the rebranding.

337
00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:55.359
I think you're you're actually pretty spot
on there, because when we go

338
00:26:55.519 --> 00:27:00.240
back to around two thousand and eight
to twenty ten or so, when the

339
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:04.519
original iteration of this program, what
you might call the revitalization of the government's

340
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:11.079
interest in this was running That program
was called the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application

341
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.200
Program. It was run out of
the Defense Intelligence Agency, which is a

342
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:18.640
combat support agency of the DoD and
the DIA essentially housed that program for two

343
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.759
years. The people who were running
that admittedly, and I've spoken to the

344
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:27.920
deputy director of that program, Cullam
kellerher PhD. He was previously associated with

345
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:33.720
a civilian scientific organization called the National
Institute for Discovery Science that was headed up

346
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:37.440
by Robert Bigelow, the real estate
mogul out there in Nevada. Bob Bigelow

347
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:42.240
was friends with former Senator, the
late Senator Harry Reid Right, and it

348
00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:47.039
was with Reed's help and two other
members of the Senate that they were able

349
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:52.599
to appropriate some congressional funding where were
some taxpayer dollars that was put toward the

350
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:55.640
funding of the ALLSET program. Now, those people who were running that,

351
00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:59.839
with their long history in this of
involvement in this topic, like you said,

352
00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:02.680
they were certainly coming at this saying, Okay, we know that there

353
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:06.839
are unknowns. We've studied these things
for years. We don't dispute that.

354
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:10.079
So what we're going to do is
we're going to build a database Jacques Valet,

355
00:28:10.160 --> 00:28:12.480
in fact, who also lived right
there in your general area on the

356
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:17.240
West coast. Doctor Valet's probably been
involved in this as long or longer than

357
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:22.440
most. He was the one tasked
with the creation of this database, which

358
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:26.240
they called Capella. And so indeed, one of the criticisms from some of

359
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:30.400
the current DoD officials involved in the
current investigation is, well, these people

360
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:34.720
are longtime UFO believers, and they
did probably think these things were all from

361
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:37.440
off planet, and so they were
biased in how they were looking at this.

362
00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:41.839
But in truth, part of the
whole focus of the OFFSET program had

363
00:28:41.839 --> 00:28:48.279
been really to evaluate evaluate what these
technologies were, how they worked, you

364
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:52.799
know, what kinds of technologies could
potentially be derived from studying this, And

365
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:56.160
that was the way that they justified
this being a DIA program. They essentially

366
00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:59.960
said, the DOOD is going to
want to be able to understand what these

367
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:02.920
capabilities are so that we might be
able to exploit this, and we may

368
00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:07.079
be able to prepare ourselves in the
event that these things ever end up showing

369
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:11.200
hostility or anything along those lines.
So even early on they had had an

370
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:14.279
interest in that component of it.
But right now I would say that it's

371
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:18.799
exclusively just okay, there are unknowns. We have no evidence of extraterrestrial technology.

372
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:22.279
What we want to try and do
is make sure that China or Russia

373
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:26.079
hasn't got some advanced capability and they're
using that to spy on us. But

374
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:29.039
again, most who are looking at
this saying, if there is anything that

375
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:33.640
advanced that the DoD with all the
sensor capabilities, all the intelligence capabilities,

376
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.799
you know, all the advanced weapons
systems, all the fighter aircraft, all

377
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:42.039
the visualization capabilities in infrared, you
know it enhanced electro optical visual systems,

378
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:45.480
all this stuff that the military has. If anybody else in the world has

379
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:48.599
something that exceeds that, we've got
a real problem. But the likelihood of

380
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:53.039
that is almost nil. So,
I mean, the problem, Micah,

381
00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:59.599
with this whole mindset is that it's
all like that we had to be first

382
00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:02.200
in a alert. We don't want
them to shoot at us. It's like

383
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:07.279
that the presumption is that they're going
to hurt us in some manner. So

384
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:08.880
we got to defend ourselves. We
got to get weaponry up, we got

385
00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:12.759
to take those down ships, and
we got to create a weapon system that

386
00:30:12.839 --> 00:30:15.720
will you know, blow them out. Of the sky. It's like shoot

387
00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:21.039
first and ask questions later. It's
like, that's an ass backwards philosophy,

388
00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:23.240
don't you they I agree, Yeah, absolutely. I mean, first of

389
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:26.640
all, let me just say that
as a person who has studied the major

390
00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:30.240
literature related to this subject, both
from official channels and also from civilian researchers

391
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:34.680
who have you know, chronicled this
over the years, there's very little evidence

392
00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:38.680
that there is a direct threat being
posed by the so called UAP. Thank

393
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:44.440
you, thank you for that.
Yeah, the question had been the question

394
00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:47.519
you had asked earlier, was you
know, why rebranded, why give it

395
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:52.119
a new name. It is true
that the DoD is looking at all potentials.

396
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:53.759
I mean, there are some unknowns. There are some things they think

397
00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:59.079
that may point to, you know, foreign intelligence collection efforts. There may

398
00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:03.920
be some natural FINNA and so UAP
or what it initially was was unidentified aerial

399
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:07.039
phenomena but now unidentified anomalist phenomena.
It was meant to be kind of a

400
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:11.440
larger umbrella or blanket term to encapsulate
all these potentials. But again, the

401
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:15.799
ones I think that interest us are
the so called UFOs, the genuine unknowns.

402
00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:18.359
And again back to my earlier point. You look at the broad data

403
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.759
that's been collected about this, and
sure there are some injury cases. There

404
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:26.720
are some incidents where people, for
instance, have been in close proximity to

405
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:30.319
an exotic vehicle and they may have
suffered the after effects of what could be

406
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:34.559
exposure to nonionizing radiation. Yeah,
things like that, but those are usual

407
00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:41.319
we call indirect incidents. In other
words, this was an indirect means by

408
00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:45.640
which these people were injured. It
wasn't like a laser beam that shot out

409
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:48.559
and injured somebody as if by intent. Now it's not to say it's never

410
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:53.079
happened. There are some rare cases
in the literature there are suggestive of intent,

411
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.759
But again I would say that the
majority of it suggests that this is

412
00:31:56.839 --> 00:32:00.680
probably a phenomena that is operating for
some reason. We don't understand its intentions

413
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:05.799
or reasoning, but it is attempting
to do so without having to interact with

414
00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:07.400
us as much as possible. They
try to kind of keep us at arms

415
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:14.079
distance if anything. Yeah, you
know, to that point, everybody in

416
00:32:14.119 --> 00:32:19.960
the industry or who's interested in UFO
knows about Bob Bazar, the physicist who

417
00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:25.920
makes this amazing claim of this location
in Nevada called Area fifty one, and

418
00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:34.279
apparently we have five or six different
downcraft that we're revers trying to reverse engineer.

419
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:37.839
And he talks about trying to reverse
what he thinks is some kind of

420
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:43.160
a power system and that he got
out of there before the thing blew up

421
00:32:43.200 --> 00:32:47.559
and killed a bunch of people.
But it makes me suspicious if the military

422
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:54.000
has gone far enough and has actually
created reverse engineered craft based on this advanced

423
00:32:54.000 --> 00:33:01.880
technology. Are we confusing these craft
aft with the UAPs that are in the

424
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:06.599
air right now? Also a good
question. And you know, there were

425
00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:09.440
some other whistleblowers other than Grush that
came out last summer. In fact,

426
00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:15.160
the same week that mister Grush first
came to public knowledge, we dropped the

427
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:17.119
article on Monday, I believe June
the fifth, there at the debrief dot

428
00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:20.799
Org. And then just a few
days later there was a lengthy interview that

429
00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:25.200
journalist Ross Cooltark conducted with him on
News Nation. But in the days in

430
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:30.319
between those two appearances by mister Grush, we also had an event in Washington

431
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:35.240
where three other whistleblowers came forward and
they also shared their own perspectives on government

432
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:37.440
involvement, and one of those individuals
I believe his name is Michael Herrera.

433
00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:43.279
He tells a very interesting and I
would say a rather concerning story. He

434
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:45.680
was I believe in Sumatra back in
the early two thousands. This was part

435
00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:52.599
of a military relief effort following the
tsunami that it struck that region around that

436
00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:54.720
time. And as he tells the
story, he and his company come up

437
00:33:54.759 --> 00:33:59.119
over hill and they see essentially what
was like a kind of a large pyramidal

438
00:33:59.240 --> 00:34:01.680
or maybe what we would kind of
like into a saucer shaped craft, and

439
00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:05.920
it's hovering over the ground. And
he looks at this thing and they're going,

440
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:07.480
wow, you know, what is
that? And so he has a

441
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:10.400
camera and he pulls it out and
starts filming it. And then he says

442
00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:15.760
that all of a sudden, out
of the surrounding brush black ops guys,

443
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:19.599
you know, guys in black military
fatigues. They are unequivocally American. They

444
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:23.119
have American accents, but they are
arms to the teeth. They basically pulled

445
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:28.719
them at gunpoint and they take their
weapons, they scan their identification. He

446
00:34:28.760 --> 00:34:30.280
says that they're kind of rough talking
him and his company and everything, and

447
00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:35.880
Eventually they go from thinking that they're
probably you know, their days are numbered

448
00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:38.519
and that they may be in serious
danger to being released walk to the top

449
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:42.039
of the hill and to turn around, leave and don't come back. And

450
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:45.719
so he and his company are released. A few days later, his camera

451
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:50.400
is confiscated and he comes forward to
tell this story because he said, these

452
00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:53.559
guys were loading you know, they
had like pallettes and things and some military

453
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:58.440
vehicles, and they were loading something
onto this craft, this highly anomalous craft

454
00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:00.679
that he said as it left,
it lifted off and then just kind of

455
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:04.360
hovered and PAM just takes off in
a blink. And so he says,

456
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:08.760
it seems pretty clear that some of
this technology is ours. And interestingly,

457
00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:14.199
in the aero historical report that I
mentioned earlier, Cliff, they absolutely say,

458
00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:19.559
you know, one individual claims that
he saw Black ops personnel loading something

459
00:35:19.559 --> 00:35:22.880
into a UAP. So, I
mean, Herrera's case is clearly listed in

460
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:28.079
Arrow's appendix, and they obviously had
interviewed him and spoken to him, and

461
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:30.480
he was you know, deemed I
guess, a credible witness and certainly a

462
00:35:30.519 --> 00:35:35.480
former military official whose credentials can be
verified. So if his story is indeed

463
00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:38.440
true and accurate as he has told
this. Now in many instances, it

464
00:35:38.480 --> 00:35:43.079
seems pretty clear that some of this
technology does belong to us. Now the

465
00:35:43.199 --> 00:35:45.159
question is did we just cook that
up out of no where and we just

466
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:50.480
created this stuff? Or is this
the result of as Bob Lazar and some

467
00:35:50.519 --> 00:35:52.880
others have claimed. And again this
doesn't necessarily verify what Bob Lazar says.

468
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:55.880
I know his claims are still kind
of controversial, but what he had been

469
00:35:55.920 --> 00:36:00.400
saying for years is, you know, we have been reverse engineering things there

470
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:04.119
and ask for this facility on the
Area fifty one property, and he believes

471
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:08.159
that some of our technologies have been
derived from the so called NHI or anomaloust

472
00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:16.480
aerial vehicles. We've got to get
a short commercial break to allow our sponsors

473
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:22.639
to identify themselves, and we will
return shortly with my guest today, Micah

474
00:36:22.960 --> 00:37:06.519
Hanks, coming to us from North
Carolina. We'll be right back. My

475
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:10.880
guest today is Micah Hanks. He
is a research investigator and author who has

476
00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:17.639
a good focus on what is happening
in the UFO alien genre that is really

477
00:37:19.159 --> 00:37:22.159
a great curiosity to many of us. We're getting a sense of just what's

478
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:32.280
going on in the world of unusual
anomalists aerial phenomenon. Talk a little bit

479
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:37.599
about your knowledge of Phil Corso because
his book The Day After Roswell is a

480
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:46.599
classic, and he basically says that
most of our innovations come from down UFOs

481
00:37:47.320 --> 00:37:52.840
and are reverse engineering of that technology. A lot of people thought that Corso

482
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:58.280
was a kook, but if you
look at his credentials, he was fairly

483
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:04.599
up there as an intelligence officer and
had access to possible downcraft. What do

484
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:07.559
you feel about that? You can't
call him a koop, that's for sure.

485
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:13.800
I mean, his background is absolutely
well known and certainly verified. I

486
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:16.400
mean, Philip Corso is an individual
who certainly served. The story he tells

487
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:20.280
in the book that came out,
you know, co authored with William Burns,

488
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:23.840
The Day After Roswell essentially says that
while he was working with the Foreign

489
00:38:23.920 --> 00:38:29.920
Technology Division Right Patterson Air Force BACE
that has a new name at this point,

490
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:32.840
but at that time, essentially they
would have collected and analyzed and potentially

491
00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:39.360
reverse engineered any kind of foreign technologies
that were acquired. This mostly presumably having

492
00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:44.559
relationship to the Soviet Union or other
nations who are operating you know, aerospace

493
00:38:44.599 --> 00:38:49.119
capabilities and things. But what Corso
claimed was that he was brought some of

494
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:53.119
these technologies that he said came directly
from the Roswell crash of nineteen forty seven.

495
00:38:54.039 --> 00:38:58.719
Some of the examples of the technology
that he described had been what we

496
00:38:58.719 --> 00:39:01.639
would like him being fiber opts today, fiber optics, yes, yeah.

497
00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:06.519
Kevlar was another one. He said
that there was sort of like a like

498
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:09.480
a headband or something along those lines
that they also had. There was a

499
00:39:09.519 --> 00:39:14.760
little device that he said, we
would liken it to like a laser pointer,

500
00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:15.960
and he said that for a long
time they tried to figure out how

501
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:19.800
it worked, and then they realized
that this was a laser cutting device.

502
00:39:20.840 --> 00:39:23.079
So he he says again again according
to his claims, which have remained very

503
00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:28.679
controversial, but he never ever before
his death, and again he died shortly

504
00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:31.519
after the publications, which is also
kind of part of what makes this so

505
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:36.440
enigmatic. But he never stepped back
from his claims. He maintained that he

506
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:39.760
had had access to these technologies and
that the idea had been that they were

507
00:39:39.800 --> 00:39:45.679
going to be quietly seeded into US
industry so that there could be technological developments

508
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:49.760
that the United States could make as
opposed to our enemies, and this was

509
00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:52.039
a way to be able to get
the information out and ensure that there would

510
00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:59.039
be public benefit from the you know, any technologies derived from the NHI technology.

511
00:39:59.079 --> 00:40:01.199
Now, there are a lot of
different interpretations of what was going on.

512
00:40:01.280 --> 00:40:06.960
There was mister Corso completely delusional.
Now, look, Bliff, I've

513
00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:10.280
sat and I've watched interview after interview
with him, And there was also a

514
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:15.440
lesser known document that he wrote which
was not co authored with someone else,

515
00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:19.840
and it's available in its entirety online
where he kind of further expounds on what

516
00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:22.960
he thinks the real overarching truth of
all this stuff is and what the government's

517
00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:28.440
relationship to it is. My take
on Corso is it's one of two things.

518
00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:31.400
Either he's completely telling the truth or
there is a possibility, and this

519
00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:35.320
is one that we have to consider. There is a possibility that this was

520
00:40:35.360 --> 00:40:39.800
a very elaborate form of disinformation,
because there is precedent for US government officials

521
00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:45.239
who have come forward presenting false information
so as to steer a certain kind of

522
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:46.239
a narrative. Now I don't claim
to know which it is. I'm just

523
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:50.079
saying that those are the two.
Well, I'm gonna ask Himikah, right

524
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:52.119
now, what do you feel?
I mean? Because if you went one

525
00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:57.519
step further than a lot of us. I saw one or two video interviews

526
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:02.559
of Courso, but they were more
vague, and you're suggesting there were maybe

527
00:41:02.559 --> 00:41:07.639
some more that had greater detail.
Yeah, there are a lot of interviews

528
00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:12.679
that he gave. One, for
instance, very interesting where he spoke with

529
00:41:12.920 --> 00:41:16.079
Bud Hopkins the la I love Bud. I know Bud. Yeah, his

530
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:22.280
past of course, but famous book
he wrote, Intruders. Yeah, Bud

531
00:41:22.280 --> 00:41:25.000
had sat there in kind of grilled
course. So there was another interview that

532
00:41:25.039 --> 00:41:29.639
I believe was made available online.
You can find it on archive dot org,

533
00:41:29.800 --> 00:41:34.480
made available by doctor Stephen Greer of
the Disclosure Project. As far as

534
00:41:34.480 --> 00:41:37.320
what I feel, this is a
tricky one for me because I think I

535
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:43.760
went into it really feeling like,
in likelihood, Corso was telling a story

536
00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:46.920
that seemed extraordinary, but it was
so detailed that there had to be some

537
00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:52.199
element of truth to it. But
there are some interesting conjectures that have been

538
00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:54.239
raised. For instance, a colleague
of mine, Nick Redfern, wrote a

539
00:41:54.320 --> 00:41:59.280
very controversial book a number of years
ago called Body Snatchers. In the desert,

540
00:41:59.320 --> 00:42:02.159
and he offers an alternative hypothesis for
what may have happened at Roswell.

541
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:07.800
In that book, he points out
some very interesting connections between Philip Corso and

542
00:42:07.880 --> 00:42:13.159
other government officials that again, according
to Nick, he would tell you it's

543
00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:16.679
probable that Corso was involved in some
kind of a disinformation effort. Now,

544
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:22.320
the broader takeaway from me from all
that though, would be this, it

545
00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:24.320
becomes very difficult for us to know
at times what is true and what is

546
00:42:24.360 --> 00:42:28.639
not because the government has not been
true and forthcoming. We wouldn't even have

547
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:31.159
a debate or have to have one
about Courso or anybody else if there hadn't

548
00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:36.000
been instances with the government has lied
to us about these things where for instance,

549
00:42:36.280 --> 00:42:39.239
Air Force Office of Special Investigation agents
have leaked bad documents, they have

550
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:45.360
misinformed people, they've made bogus promises
and then reneged on those later, and

551
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:49.320
they've really made it difficult for UFO
researchers to trust their government. So again,

552
00:42:49.360 --> 00:42:52.639
the bottom line and the real broad
question for me is how do we

553
00:42:52.760 --> 00:42:54.960
know what we can actually take seriously? How do we know who we can

554
00:42:55.000 --> 00:43:00.000
trust when the government has lied to
us time and time again. Yeah,

555
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:04.719
and of course, of course Will
being ex military, it's kind of in

556
00:43:04.719 --> 00:43:09.679
his DNA a little bit, so
it's kind of sad. One of the

557
00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:21.000
fascinating aspects of bazaars, so called
visual inspection of various down craft that were

558
00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:24.639
in area fifty one hangars, is
one specific craft that he and this is

559
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:30.039
very interesting. I want to hear
your take on it. He said that

560
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:36.800
one of the crafts had been excavated
from a very old site and he used,

561
00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:40.440
I believe he used, tens of
thousands of years old, was the

562
00:43:40.599 --> 00:43:49.599
guests, because of the surrounding area
that was in the age of the rocks,

563
00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:52.599
and maybe there's some artifacts and things
like that. It really shows us,

564
00:43:52.599 --> 00:44:02.000
if this is true, that we've
been inspected or visited for thousands of

565
00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:07.199
years. And God, I'd love
to see that craft because to make that

566
00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:13.800
assumption, obviously he was told this
that it was an ancient craft, but

567
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:16.880
to get a sense of what it
looked like would just be I don't blow

568
00:44:17.239 --> 00:44:22.760
the doors off of everything. What
do you think about that? I mean,

569
00:44:22.800 --> 00:44:27.880
listen, there's a very good possibility
that if indeed some of the UFOs

570
00:44:28.360 --> 00:44:32.760
are indeed off world technology. I
mean, the implication would be if they

571
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:37.360
are so advanced that they would have
to have been around for far longer than

572
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:39.280
we are, and that they are
far ahead of us in every way.

573
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:43.800
And if that's the case, they
probably have been around longer than we have

574
00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:46.519
been. And if that's the case, we could infer that perhaps Earth has

575
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:52.960
had a much longer relationship with these
phenomena, and that past observations by people

576
00:44:52.000 --> 00:44:55.559
of you know, luminous phenomenon,
especially in the in the period before our

577
00:44:55.599 --> 00:44:59.960
own space program, and when we
start putting objects into space that you know,

578
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:06.119
again, even today some people may
unknowingly misinterpret as being UFOs satellites,

579
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:07.760
you know, things like that.
Back before we had put those things in

580
00:45:07.800 --> 00:45:13.400
space, people were still describing very
unusual events in our skies. And these

581
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:16.360
things have been again documented in the
historical records. So there are some researchers

582
00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:22.039
who have looked back in time again
the aforementioned Jacques Valet, his colleague,

583
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:25.360
Chris Albeck, many others. Martin
Show, I've done a little of this

584
00:45:25.440 --> 00:45:30.440
myself. But even the late NASA
historian, oh gosh, what was his

585
00:45:30.519 --> 00:45:37.719
name, He authored a really interesting
paper on UFOs in antiquity. But there

586
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:43.480
are a lot of researchers who have
conducted investigations into whether we can harvest information

587
00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:47.199
about UFO sidings going much further back
now. My take on it would be,

588
00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:52.239
again, if these phenomena are something
that are off planet, they are

589
00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:57.000
not from here. It's certainly possible
that they've been around longer, and therefore

590
00:45:58.599 --> 00:46:01.000
mister Lazar's claims of very interesting.
I mean a lot of people have dismissed

591
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:07.039
them out of hand entirely. I
don't. I have questions, but again,

592
00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:09.480
one thing we also have to recognize
is I've probably gone back and listened

593
00:46:09.519 --> 00:46:15.039
to almost every interview that he has
given since he initially came forward to investigative

594
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:21.960
reporter George Knapp there at Klas and
Las Vegas, and the remarkable consistency of

595
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:24.199
the way he tells his story.
Some would say that there are some minor

596
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:28.599
deviations and things I think that would
be expected with time, but for the

597
00:46:28.599 --> 00:46:31.960
most part, the core story really
remains very consistent. And so if he's

598
00:46:32.000 --> 00:46:36.639
a liar, he's a good on
you. But that story he tells about

599
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.400
this archaeological excavation, yeah, that's
definitely interesting, and again I think that

600
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:44.559
would be consistent with the view that
these technologies that they've been around for a

601
00:46:44.559 --> 00:46:46.719
long time in are foreign advance of
us. That these things have probably been

602
00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:50.519
here on Earth for various reasons for
a long time, and people have certainly

603
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:53.920
been seeing them. Yeah, I
think the biggest problem, and it's really

604
00:46:54.000 --> 00:46:59.519
a challenge, is that we can
only speculate. There's so very little data.

605
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:06.920
Lazaar is a rare case, but
we know now that he's been hiding,

606
00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:13.360
he's been traumatized, and you know, he's probably had stunted emotional growth

607
00:47:13.519 --> 00:47:16.079
because he's looking over his shoulder all
the time, you know, not knowing

608
00:47:16.079 --> 00:47:20.079
what's going to come to him next. Hey, I want to move on

609
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:28.440
with a podcast you did called Project
Moondust, the Secret Retrieval Program. This

610
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:30.679
is fascinating. I didn't get a
chance to hear the whole podcast, but

611
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:35.679
talk a little bit about that.
That's fascinating. Well, certainly, I

612
00:47:35.719 --> 00:47:40.039
mean back in the Cold War,
the US Air Force certainly did have the

613
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:45.480
capability of being able to acquire anything
that may have fallen from space, you

614
00:47:45.519 --> 00:47:51.760
know, anything that lands in US
airspace. And actually, and to an

615
00:47:51.760 --> 00:47:54.239
extent, they were able to obtain
things that had fallen from space in other

616
00:47:54.280 --> 00:48:00.320
countries too. We have begun to
hear about a couple of different programs getting

617
00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:02.880
back in the early days of the
Freedom of Information Act, and that would

618
00:48:02.880 --> 00:48:07.280
have been back in the nineteen seventies
researchers like Barry Greenwood and others who had

619
00:48:07.320 --> 00:48:12.239
been involved with a really neat organization
back then called Cause or the Citizens Against

620
00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:15.760
UFO Secrecy. I always loved that
name. They were essentially legal scholars,

621
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:22.360
people who were using the Freedom of
Information Act, former NSA employees, constitutional

622
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:28.760
lawyers, things like that. Longtime
UFO researchers too, But they were using

623
00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:35.239
the Foyer request process to try and
file requests to obtain government documents about UFOs,

624
00:48:36.280 --> 00:48:38.880
and they began to obtain some documents
that made references to programs, including

625
00:48:39.440 --> 00:48:43.920
Project Moondust. As you mentioned,
there was another one to an adjacent program

626
00:48:43.960 --> 00:48:49.800
called Project blue Fly, and eventually
it was confirmed to a researcher named Robert

627
00:48:49.840 --> 00:48:53.000
Todd I think maybe a decade later
in the mid nineteen eighties, that indeed

628
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:57.599
there had been such a program,
but that effectively what had happened was that

629
00:48:57.679 --> 00:49:01.519
after these Foyer releases and after the
name of the program was compromised, it

630
00:49:01.599 --> 00:49:06.679
ended up being moved into another agency
at Apartment and it was given a different

631
00:49:06.800 --> 00:49:12.199
name. Now I've also gotten some
additional information recently that states that blue Fly

632
00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:15.280
would have really kind of been a
code word for a kind of operation,

633
00:49:15.440 --> 00:49:20.440
rather than being any explicit program,
although again it seemed to be inferred in

634
00:49:20.519 --> 00:49:23.679
the information that was provided to Robert
Todd back in nineteen eighty six. I

635
00:49:23.719 --> 00:49:28.679
believe that this was a program,
and it effectively acted like one. What

636
00:49:28.719 --> 00:49:30.800
I find really interesting, though,
is that in certain documentation that describes the

637
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:37.880
operations of whatever operation Moondust would have
entailed, they certainly say that they were

638
00:49:37.280 --> 00:49:44.039
aiming to acquire any kind of Soviet
technology that fell from space, but that

639
00:49:44.159 --> 00:49:47.079
essentially any kind of UFOs, right, any kind of UFO technology, and

640
00:49:47.119 --> 00:49:51.880
again that could also entail a Soviet
technology hypothetically, but they said that they

641
00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:57.000
essentially would be acquiring these technologies whatever
they were, if they fell on US

642
00:49:57.039 --> 00:50:02.159
soil. The reason I think that's
interesting is because there's obvious relevance between Moondust,

643
00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:07.000
blue Fly and the UFO phenomenon.
And yet again in the recent historical

644
00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:12.599
report that was produced by the dods
Arrow there's no mention of Moondust or blue

645
00:50:12.599 --> 00:50:15.679
Fly. They mentioned everything from the
Manhattan Project to all these other programs that

646
00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:20.400
really, in truth, have very
little to any relevance at all to UFOs.

647
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:22.920
But they don't bring up Moondust and
they don't bring up blue Fly.

648
00:50:23.000 --> 00:50:25.800
And I found that to be yet
again one of the criticisms I would have

649
00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:30.760
with Arrow's current investigation. It didn't
seem like they went deeply enough. They

650
00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:35.360
leave it up to you know,
civilian historical researchers like myself and others to

651
00:50:35.400 --> 00:50:37.440
have to bring all these things to
public light. And there's you know,

652
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:40.599
been a lot of other people who
have commented on these programs too. There

653
00:50:40.639 --> 00:50:45.360
was an entire book titled Project Moondust
written by researcher Kevin Randall, who again

654
00:50:45.400 --> 00:50:50.719
isn't just a long time really a
legendary researcher himself. So again it's it's

655
00:50:50.800 --> 00:50:53.800
unfortunate that it's left to the civilian
sector to have to do this historical research.

656
00:50:54.119 --> 00:50:57.719
The government doesn't seem to really have
very much interest in kind of,

657
00:50:57.840 --> 00:51:00.920
you know, digging into these things
and understanding the full scope of what all

658
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:05.360
these programs were and what they did. Are you suggesting that Project Moondust is

659
00:51:05.480 --> 00:51:08.280
done with that? It doesn't function
anymore. Or and the other thing.

660
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:15.280
A second question is the name said
implies the moon, the lunar surface,

661
00:51:16.199 --> 00:51:20.079
So does that have anything to do
with the moon or is that just part

662
00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:23.079
of a title. Yeah, I
think it's just a code name. I

663
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:28.199
don't think that there is a Project
Moondust by today's standards. I would say

664
00:51:28.199 --> 00:51:30.480
though, that if indeed what Robert
Todd was told back in the eighties is

665
00:51:30.519 --> 00:51:37.559
accurate, that some kind of a
similar program or initiative probably has continued.

666
00:51:37.480 --> 00:51:44.920
And it doesn't it's no longer called
Moondust, And I would have to imagine

667
00:51:44.920 --> 00:51:47.280
that given all the current threats that
we have with you know, China,

668
00:51:47.320 --> 00:51:52.239
with Russia again, that's to me
where the quote unquote threat comes from quote

669
00:51:52.320 --> 00:51:58.079
unquote UAP, not from the actual
unknowns. And if indeed there's a potential

670
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:01.000
that there are any kind of threatening
surveillance systems, weapons systems, hypersonics,

671
00:52:01.039 --> 00:52:04.559
you know, any of these kind
of things that are being developed by the

672
00:52:04.559 --> 00:52:07.280
world militaries, if there's a potential
that those might be used against the US,

673
00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:12.639
or that we at some point may
acquire one again, Project Moondust's stated

674
00:52:12.679 --> 00:52:15.840
objective was the acquisition of Soviet technologies
during the Cold War, there would have

675
00:52:15.880 --> 00:52:22.960
to be some equivalent still extant today. There'd have to be We don't have

676
00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:25.679
a lot of time, but I
just want to cross you with a few

677
00:52:27.000 --> 00:52:30.000
or suggest a few themes and see
what you have to say. I'm a

678
00:52:30.039 --> 00:52:35.360
big advocate of ancient civilizations on Mars. We've had some of the top people

679
00:52:36.039 --> 00:52:40.400
from doctor John Brandenburgh to Mark Carlotto
and all threw down the line. Even

680
00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:45.480
Richard Hoglan at one point, who
wrote a fabulous book called The Monuments of

681
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:58.800
Mars. And or NASA keeps throwing
these drones and these rovers to pick up

682
00:52:58.880 --> 00:53:02.280
microbes and things like that. And
I keep joking to my listeners and say,

683
00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:07.079
in one of these days, they're
going to bump into the staircase of

684
00:53:07.480 --> 00:53:10.840
a temple looking for microbes, but
they'll turn the camera away from it.

685
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:17.280
What's gonna happen when the Chinese or
SpaceX get there and they put boots on

686
00:53:17.320 --> 00:53:22.000
the ground and they begin seeing the
stuff. Because it's not just Sidonia we're

687
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:28.159
talking about, which is where the
face is located. It's scattered everywhere.

688
00:53:28.519 --> 00:53:32.800
And if the Chinese get an orbiter
on there and they land either a human

689
00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:37.639
team or even a rover and start
serveying Mars. The couts out of the

690
00:53:37.679 --> 00:53:43.679
bag. Yeah. Well, so
again, there's a lot of really interesting

691
00:53:43.719 --> 00:53:47.679
imagery online that seems to show what
appear to be structured objects on the surface

692
00:53:47.800 --> 00:53:52.320
surface of Mars. And of course, like you mentioned the famous you know,

693
00:53:52.440 --> 00:53:54.960
implications about Sidonia, things along those
lines. Even look at for instance,

694
00:53:55.000 --> 00:53:59.400
I think that there's this monolithic structure. Again, whether or not it's

695
00:53:59.480 --> 00:54:01.440
natural, don't know, but there
is clearly something very large that casts a

696
00:54:01.519 --> 00:54:06.440
lengthy shadow I believe on the Martian
moon. Phobos are a lot of There

697
00:54:06.440 --> 00:54:09.800
are a lot of Martian anomalies and
lunar anomalies. Now what I will say

698
00:54:09.800 --> 00:54:15.039
about those is this, there are
a growing number of scientists who are not

699
00:54:15.159 --> 00:54:19.280
people who have been what we would
call, you know, alternative theorists and

700
00:54:19.320 --> 00:54:22.000
things along those lines, scientists who
are saying that we should use machine learning

701
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:25.840
to try and discern whether or not
there are you know, again, actual

702
00:54:27.000 --> 00:54:30.599
structured technological artifacts that could be found
not only on Mars, butok, perhaps

703
00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:35.239
on the Moon. I would think
that most of the modern researchers who are

704
00:54:35.400 --> 00:54:38.000
becoming proponents of this, who for
a long time probably would not have been.

705
00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:42.199
I think they're seeing some of the
developments in the UAP area and they're

706
00:54:42.199 --> 00:54:45.280
saying, huh okay, maybe it
seems like there's something here, But they

707
00:54:45.320 --> 00:54:50.480
also are looking at how you know, I mean, the most distant space

708
00:54:50.519 --> 00:54:53.440
object built by humans that we know
of today is Voyager one. It's about

709
00:54:53.440 --> 00:54:58.280
fifteen billion miles away and it takes
two days for us to get radio communications

710
00:54:58.280 --> 00:55:01.199
to it and then back, and
it went offline last November. But we

711
00:55:01.199 --> 00:55:05.920
were able to engineer a way that
we can now get you again at least

712
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:08.559
communications health status updates from the thing. We haven't got usable science yet,

713
00:55:08.559 --> 00:55:12.480
but we're working toward that point.
And this is with like i mean,

714
00:55:12.559 --> 00:55:15.199
decades old computer technology, kind of
fascinating, But a lot of researchers are

715
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:20.039
saying, well, listen, we
send out probes into interstellar space like Voyager,

716
00:55:20.679 --> 00:55:22.360
surely other intelligences would do the same
thing. And if one ever made

717
00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:25.559
its way into our planetary neighborhood,
you know, it might have burnt up

718
00:55:25.599 --> 00:55:29.400
if it entered Earth's atmosphere. But
if it happened to be caught by the

719
00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.880
great big catchers met in the sky, I e. The Moon. You

720
00:55:31.920 --> 00:55:35.000
know, it may have come to
rest on the lunar surface, and it

721
00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:37.760
could be that either on the Moon
or maybe on Mars. Maybe one day

722
00:55:37.760 --> 00:55:42.199
we will find some evidence of another
advanced civilization, whether or not they had

723
00:55:42.239 --> 00:55:46.199
come from that location, their technology
may have made its way there. So

724
00:55:46.440 --> 00:55:50.880
to your point, Cliff, I
mean, can we risk the opportunity loss

725
00:55:51.119 --> 00:55:54.360
of another nation getting up there and
finding that technology first, which, ultimately,

726
00:55:54.400 --> 00:55:57.519
for all we know, may end
up being how we confirm that.

727
00:55:57.599 --> 00:56:01.000
Indeed, there are other intelligences out
there say it's incumbent upon us to get

728
00:56:01.039 --> 00:56:04.360
up there and start doing some serious
research. And again this is part of

729
00:56:04.400 --> 00:56:07.719
why we are aiming in the next
few decades to get people up their boots

730
00:56:07.760 --> 00:56:09.599
on the ground on Mars. But
really I would hope that with the Artemis

731
00:56:09.679 --> 00:56:14.119
missions and things forthcoming in the next
few decades that we could be doing more

732
00:56:14.159 --> 00:56:15.559
of that on the Moon. Who
knows what we are yet to find up

733
00:56:15.559 --> 00:56:22.960
there. We had an Artemous space
engineer aerospace engineer on the program a couple

734
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:31.599
of weeks ago, and she was
refreshingly blunt about UFO contacts. In fact,

735
00:56:31.639 --> 00:56:36.960
she said that there is a documentation
you probably already know this, but

736
00:56:37.639 --> 00:56:45.559
from the very beginning, all the
way back to Mercury missions that these liftoff

737
00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:52.440
areas had craft all around them and
that it is well known within the community,

738
00:56:52.480 --> 00:56:53.840
but the public doesn't know about it
because they don't want to freak people

739
00:56:53.880 --> 00:57:00.800
out. So as we conclude,
Micah, what do you think is going

740
00:57:00.880 --> 00:57:09.400
to be the reaction to the first
contact? What can we base the current

741
00:57:10.360 --> 00:57:15.960
Earth humans reaction to the knowledge that
hey, you're not alone. We're not

742
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:22.039
alone anymore, We're part of a
collective in our cosmos from planet wherever,

743
00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:25.119
planet X or whatever. Yeah,
well, I think that's a great question.

744
00:57:25.159 --> 00:57:30.599
First of all, I attended a
scientific symposium last fall that was put

745
00:57:30.599 --> 00:57:37.679
on by a new organization called the
Soul Foundation. This launched by professors Peter

746
00:57:37.760 --> 00:57:43.280
Skayfish and Gary Nolan, And I
mean, this was an academic symposium at

747
00:57:43.320 --> 00:57:45.519
Stanford University, and I have to
say that it was kind of a who's

748
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:50.639
who of this field of research,
and it was really fascinating to see all

749
00:57:50.639 --> 00:57:53.320
these people together at Stanford University talking
about this. But one of the themes

750
00:57:53.320 --> 00:57:58.400
of that conference had been this idea
of you know, how do we sort

751
00:57:58.400 --> 00:58:02.599
of soften the blow for when this
information comes out, Because the military seems

752
00:58:02.639 --> 00:58:07.639
to be a tempting right now to
evaluate a phenomenon. Some would say that

753
00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:10.840
the intelligence community components may already have
a whole lot of information and that's the

754
00:58:10.880 --> 00:58:14.280
kind of stuff like you're alluding to
that we don't want to get out.

755
00:58:14.880 --> 00:58:17.480
But in any case, it may
be up to academic researchers to start kind

756
00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:21.679
of promoting the idea that hey,
look, there's a reality here, so

757
00:58:21.800 --> 00:58:23.639
that maybe by the time this information
does come out of government, rather than

758
00:58:23.679 --> 00:58:27.519
people going, oh my god,
you mean this stuff's true, they kind

759
00:58:27.519 --> 00:58:30.920
of respond and say, well,
I sort of suspected there was something going

760
00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:34.519
on, and maybe indeed people at
that point will truly be able to handle

761
00:58:34.559 --> 00:58:37.000
the truth. I hope they will. I think we can. I think

762
00:58:37.039 --> 00:58:43.079
that humans tend to unite when we
are faced with incredible revelations and sometimes threats.

763
00:58:43.320 --> 00:58:45.800
I don't think that there's as much
of a threat to concern, just

764
00:58:45.840 --> 00:58:49.280
as there is ontological shock to the
realization that we may not be alone in

765
00:58:49.320 --> 00:58:52.559
the universe. But I think we
can handle it. Is the Soul Foundation

766
00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:59.199
designed to begin releasing more data and
making it a little of a soft land

767
00:58:59.280 --> 00:59:02.480
more of a soft landing to this
content, I would say that as opposed

768
00:59:02.519 --> 00:59:07.760
to releasing information, because they aren't
an official government organization, they are essentially

769
00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:13.159
a group of academics who are attempting
to try and provide policy guidance and other

770
00:59:13.199 --> 00:59:16.480
information, academic research and studies,
white papers, things along those lines.

771
00:59:16.880 --> 00:59:20.800
They certainly do want to try and
soften the blows, so to speak.

772
00:59:20.800 --> 00:59:22.559
In fact, one of the speakers
at the event was the former Army Colonel

773
00:59:23.079 --> 00:59:27.960
Carl Nell, who had been the
liaison to the UAP Task Force, and

774
00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:31.360
I met and spoke with Carl Nill
there. Carl gave an interesting conversation or

775
00:59:31.559 --> 00:59:37.400
presentation rather on what he called catastrophic
disclosure, In other words, what would

776
00:59:37.440 --> 00:59:40.679
happen if another nation releases all this
information before the US does, And the

777
00:59:40.719 --> 00:59:45.039
implications seemed to be coming from Carl's
perspective that he was pretty confident, as

778
00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:49.719
a former military official with the United
States Army, that there is a there

779
00:59:49.800 --> 00:59:53.440
there that we do have information about
these acquisitions, these NHI craft that David

780
00:59:53.440 --> 00:59:57.239
Grust, the whistlebower, came forward
and talked about, and that he felt

781
00:59:57.239 --> 01:00:00.880
that it was incumbent upon us to
have a plan for the release that information.

782
01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:05.000
So the Sole Foundation I think works
in the furtherance of that objective,

783
01:00:05.000 --> 01:00:07.519
but they are not the ones releasing
this information, although there are some former

784
01:00:07.559 --> 01:00:13.079
government officials who are advisors who work
with them. I would hope that something

785
01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:19.760
like the Soul Foundation would be a
strong advisor on how to begin releasing the

786
01:00:19.840 --> 01:00:23.719
data to the public in a more
general fashion. I mean, if you're

787
01:00:23.760 --> 01:00:29.360
going to go to the theologians of
the world and ask them what their reaction,

788
01:00:29.440 --> 01:00:34.159
which is what the reaction was,
and which is what NASA did a

789
01:00:34.239 --> 01:00:37.280
couple of years ago, that's the
wrong people to go after. We have

790
01:00:37.360 --> 01:00:45.599
a huge social media infrastructure in our
country that is literally living and communicating about

791
01:00:45.599 --> 01:00:51.320
these things. Ask them, survey
them, see what they say. They're

792
01:00:51.320 --> 01:00:54.519
going to get a whole different narrative
about the United States public, don't you

793
01:00:54.559 --> 01:00:58.280
think. Oh? Certainly. And
again it really has to be on all

794
01:00:58.320 --> 01:01:01.159
fronts. The Sole Foundation is also
where with theologians and with religious studies,

795
01:01:01.320 --> 01:01:07.000
you know, scholars like Diana Walsh, Basulka and others. But then there

796
01:01:07.000 --> 01:01:12.199
are also the military officials. Then
there are also the anthropologists like doctor Scayfish,

797
01:01:12.199 --> 01:01:14.960
who I've you know, Yeah,
Lee, I've had numerous, really

798
01:01:15.000 --> 01:01:19.639
really i think, very rewarding conversations
with him at the event and since,

799
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:23.039
and again I think that everything I've
seen from those individuals seems to indicate that

800
01:01:23.079 --> 01:01:28.119
they have the right idea that they
are attempting to try and raise the bar

801
01:01:28.239 --> 01:01:31.280
on how we discuss this topic,
but with the objective of when the information

802
01:01:31.320 --> 01:01:35.800
eventually comes out, you know,
we want to try and hope to present

803
01:01:35.840 --> 01:01:37.920
this in a in a logical way
and in a way that humans, people

804
01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:44.079
really all around the world can deal
with. Wow. Amazing, Michah Hanks,

805
01:01:44.119 --> 01:01:47.119
thank you, You've been very insightful
on the material. Let's talk a

806
01:01:47.159 --> 01:01:51.400
little bit about the Cosmic Summit.
You are there, it's going to be

807
01:01:51.480 --> 01:01:54.280
June fifteenth and sixteenth. What are
you talking on? What's your topic about?

808
01:01:54.679 --> 01:01:59.960
Well as the evidenced or is evidenced
by this conversation, you can imagine

809
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:02.079
my good pal George Howard, who's
putting on the conference. I've known George

810
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:05.480
for many years, you know,
he and I have actually been out there

811
01:02:06.039 --> 01:02:07.840
in the field together and done some
research. He in the Seven Ages team

812
01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:12.880
and I George always wants me to
give a UAP update, but He also

813
01:02:12.920 --> 01:02:15.639
approached me recently and said, you
know, Mike, I wondered we were

814
01:02:15.679 --> 01:02:19.840
on a video call, and he
kind of almost sheepishly said, is there

815
01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:22.280
any way that you'd also mc part
of this for us? And I said,

816
01:02:22.280 --> 01:02:27.320
of course, said George is just
delightful and again a good friend of

817
01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:31.119
many years. So Johanna and I
will also be working in that capacity.

818
01:02:31.159 --> 01:02:34.960
But I believe she gave a lecture
last year, probably will this year.

819
01:02:35.000 --> 01:02:37.119
I will certainly be giving a UAP
update, and there's going to be a

820
01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:42.480
lot going on at the event against
some excellent speakers, and I always look

821
01:02:42.519 --> 01:02:45.320
forward to this again, everything from
you know, ancient archaeology to you know,

822
01:02:45.360 --> 01:02:51.199
megafinal extinctions, that ever fascinating topic. Go back, Lee Tapy.

823
01:02:51.280 --> 01:02:55.800
I'm sure we'll come up and also
other perspectives on both the ancient past but

824
01:02:55.880 --> 01:03:00.239
also how that applies to life today. So again, the Cosmic Summit this

825
01:03:00.440 --> 01:03:04.760
June fifteenth and sixteenth in beautiful Greensboro, North Carolina, not very far from

826
01:03:04.800 --> 01:03:06.960
me. I'm looking forward to getting
down there, and Cliff, we've got

827
01:03:07.039 --> 01:03:08.679
to get you out there one year
too, Okay, I can't get there.

828
01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:12.280
I'm going to hopefully get there next
year. I want to also mention

829
01:03:12.440 --> 01:03:16.840
that George is very open to the
academic community. He has quite a few

830
01:03:17.360 --> 01:03:22.679
traditional archaeologists on the program. We'll
have a few here on the program as

831
01:03:22.719 --> 01:03:30.599
well. But to have those experts
available for questioning as well as to hear

832
01:03:30.639 --> 01:03:34.880
their material is really as a lot
to the show, doesn't it. Oh,

833
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:37.360
it certainly does. You know.
Last year we held the event right

834
01:03:37.360 --> 01:03:40.119
here in Asheville, North Carolina,
which is where I live, And I

835
01:03:40.119 --> 01:03:45.719
mean, we had so many incredible
lectures that were included in the event.

836
01:03:45.760 --> 01:03:50.119
But again, like you said,
it was a good blend of the you

837
01:03:50.119 --> 01:03:53.480
know, the theoretical and some of
the more speculative and then the traditional,

838
01:03:53.920 --> 01:03:57.920
you know approach to archaeology, which
is kind of where I've been more in,

839
01:03:58.360 --> 01:04:00.199
you know, in terms of my
own involvement this, I have an

840
01:04:00.239 --> 01:04:03.280
AGES team and I Jason Pintrail,
James Waldo and I we have assisted a

841
01:04:03.280 --> 01:04:09.159
lot of archaeological excavations. As again
we're amateur, as we are avocationalists,

842
01:04:09.159 --> 01:04:12.480
so we go volunteer and work with
the actual PhDs and we assist in those

843
01:04:12.519 --> 01:04:15.840
excavations and try to further knowledge by
basically blood sweat and tears. You know,

844
01:04:15.840 --> 01:04:18.320
you're out there with a shovel,
digging in the dirt. I love

845
01:04:18.400 --> 01:04:23.840
that, and we've always supported the
efforts of serious academic archaeologists, and George

846
01:04:23.920 --> 01:04:26.880
does too, and that's why he
tries to get a blend of both so

847
01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:29.960
that all perspectives are covered. And
I appreciate that. I didn't know you

848
01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:32.519
were picking up a shovel and digging
with those guys. That's that's kind of

849
01:04:32.519 --> 01:04:35.880
cool. Oh yeah, yeah.
I've spent many, many years out there

850
01:04:35.920 --> 01:04:40.440
working with people, and several seasons
down there at the White Pond site in

851
01:04:40.519 --> 01:04:44.519
a Greater Columbia, South Carolina,
with doctor Chris Moore and some of the

852
01:04:44.559 --> 01:04:47.000
very folks who have been involved in
the Comet Research Group and their efforts.

853
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:50.239
You know, they're kind of looking
at the younger, driest impact hypothesis,

854
01:04:50.519 --> 01:04:54.679
the idea that there was this,
you know, this cataclysmic impact that occurred

855
01:04:54.760 --> 01:04:59.559
right around maybe twenty seven or twelve
seven hundred years ago. That's another conversation

856
01:04:59.599 --> 01:05:01.440
for another time. But again,
that stuff all fascinates me, and you'll

857
01:05:01.480 --> 01:05:04.719
be hearing about that at the Cosmic
Summit too. I want to remind our

858
01:05:04.760 --> 01:05:10.559
listeners that for more information on the
Cosmic Summit June fifteenth and sixteenth. Go

859
01:05:10.679 --> 01:05:15.920
to Cosmicsummit dot com, Forward Slash
Earth Ancients all the informations there. If

860
01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:18.880
you can't get out, check out
the streaming media package. It is so

861
01:05:19.280 --> 01:05:25.719
amazing. You get all the speakers
and you get to keep all the people

862
01:05:25.760 --> 01:05:33.559
you can't see in a cloud program. So all the details are on Cosmicsemmit

863
01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:38.800
dot com, Forward Slash Earth Ancients. Micah Hanks Real Pleasure. How can

864
01:05:38.840 --> 01:05:42.559
people learn more about you? What's
your website? Give us some details about

865
01:05:42.559 --> 01:05:45.639
what you're up to. Indeed,
it's always easy to find me online.

866
01:05:45.639 --> 01:05:48.440
It's just my website is micah Hanks
dot com. My name, So if

867
01:05:48.480 --> 01:05:51.519
you head over to Micahnks dot com
you'll find all the podcasts I produce,

868
01:05:51.559 --> 01:05:55.440
I mean every single week. I've
got the Micah Hanks program my kind of

869
01:05:55.480 --> 01:05:58.719
flagship, but there are still the
other podcasts I do as well. In

870
01:05:58.719 --> 01:06:01.559
one of those, the Seven Ages
are your Journal that Jason and James really

871
01:06:01.559 --> 01:06:06.039
have spearheaded over the last few years. Jason's always picking excellent guests and we

872
01:06:06.119 --> 01:06:09.440
try to get at least one of
those, if not two, out every

873
01:06:09.480 --> 01:06:13.920
month that are covering archaeology, and
then as far as this sort of topic,

874
01:06:13.960 --> 01:06:16.679
the UAP thing, I am pretty
frequently reporting on that as well as

875
01:06:16.719 --> 01:06:19.880
you know, space, science,
technology, all kinds of things over at

876
01:06:19.840 --> 01:06:25.320
the debrief dot org. But again, anytime there's really significant breaking news involving

877
01:06:25.400 --> 01:06:28.280
UAP, I try to cover that
just like we would cover any topic in

878
01:06:28.360 --> 01:06:30.679
science, so you can find all
that information there as well. Excellent,

879
01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:33.639
and you're about to do for another
book, don't you, fella. Oh

880
01:06:33.719 --> 01:06:39.440
yeah, yeah, clear, that's
a whole other conversation. I know I

881
01:06:39.480 --> 01:06:43.679
shouldn't say anything. I'm behind on
two books so well, when we get

882
01:06:43.719 --> 01:06:46.079
them done, though, we'll have
to have to reconvene. Definitely, definitely,

883
01:06:46.440 --> 01:06:50.599
Hey, Mike, real pleasure and
looking forward to seeing you at the

884
01:06:51.920 --> 01:07:00.000
Cosmic Summit. Indeed always a pleasure, Cliff, great to see you.

885
01:07:01.440 --> 01:07:09.039
There's literally thousands of bits and pieces
of literature that has generated on the ufou

886
01:07:09.159 --> 01:07:17.519
AP alien phenomenon that is currently surrounding
our planet, and it's good to hear

887
01:07:17.519 --> 01:07:23.840
from Micah because he's really digging into
the details, the stuff that most of

888
01:07:23.920 --> 01:07:28.719
us just don't care to look into
or don't have access to. It sounds

889
01:07:28.719 --> 01:07:33.119
like he had access to data that
isn't typically released to the general public.

890
01:07:33.719 --> 01:07:36.360
But I have to say, not
only was it good to hear from him

891
01:07:36.559 --> 01:07:44.920
and to touch base with his knowledge
of things, but it kind of presents

892
01:07:44.920 --> 01:07:50.519
itself as a continual study. But
you know, we're still being We're not

893
01:07:50.840 --> 01:07:59.199
We're still not privy to the details
of landings, of interactions with off world

894
01:07:59.239 --> 01:08:05.480
types. And I don't think that
there'll ever really be full disclosure because it's

895
01:08:05.480 --> 01:08:10.559
just too much. It's too much, just probably and I think we heard

896
01:08:10.559 --> 01:08:15.320
from somebody I can't remember who it
was. It's so overwhelming that they the

897
01:08:15.360 --> 01:08:21.479
government, you know, has lost
its grip on it, and it's uh,

898
01:08:24.319 --> 01:08:29.119
you know, it really crosses over. If you've ever follow or watch

899
01:08:29.520 --> 01:08:32.840
doctor Steven Greer's work, he is
very thick in it. I got to

900
01:08:32.880 --> 01:08:40.560
get him on the program. He
is talking about black ops groups that are

901
01:08:40.720 --> 01:08:48.760
creating alternative energy and vehicles and using
technology and integrating the technology in society.

902
01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:54.479
But black ops groups doesn't want to
do don't want to do that because it

903
01:08:54.520 --> 01:09:00.640
would mean the loss of petro chemicals
and the petroleum industry, which is trillions

904
01:09:00.640 --> 01:09:05.680
of dollars. And it's too bad
because you know, if we had a

905
01:09:05.720 --> 01:09:15.640
technology that eliminated carbon and carbon monoxide
emissions, not only would we save our

906
01:09:15.479 --> 01:09:20.720
environment, but we would probably be
a lot better off health wise. So

907
01:09:24.520 --> 01:09:29.439
lots of questions. I keep at
it. We drop a UFO UAP alien

908
01:09:29.720 --> 01:09:34.159
author on the program occasionally just to
give us an update as to what's happening,

909
01:09:34.239 --> 01:09:41.920
what's going on, and if there's
anything that's really important. So I'll

910
01:09:42.039 --> 01:09:46.279
drop a program like this occasionally just
to keep us up to date. So

911
01:09:46.600 --> 01:09:54.520
hope you enjoyed that. Hey,
we do a couple of tours every year.

912
01:09:55.319 --> 01:10:00.600
Actually it's around three now and we're
going to be in Turkey August fourteenth

913
01:10:00.800 --> 01:10:06.000
through the twenty fourth. We're about
half full, and there's more and more

914
01:10:06.079 --> 01:10:11.880
data coming out of Turkey that not
only is it one of the supporters of

915
01:10:11.960 --> 01:10:15.119
some of the most ancient people in
the world, many like the go Beckley

916
01:10:15.159 --> 01:10:20.119
Tepee temple that we don't even know
who the people were, but it's dated

917
01:10:20.199 --> 01:10:28.279
to what twelve thousand years ago,
and it keeps confounding us as to what

918
01:10:28.479 --> 01:10:30.840
these temples were, that they were
building, what they are used for.

919
01:10:31.319 --> 01:10:35.239
We're going to be seeing go Beckley
Teppy in this upcoming tour, we're going

920
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:40.000
to see a lot of other sites
that are close to go Beckley Tappy.

921
01:10:41.399 --> 01:10:45.199
We're also going to places like darren
Kuru, Cappadocia, and a lot of

922
01:10:45.399 --> 01:10:53.159
ancient sites that are off the beaten
path that general public doesn't really get the

923
01:10:53.239 --> 01:10:59.479
chance to see. If you want
more information and to see our current banuary,

924
01:10:59.720 --> 01:11:03.239
go to earth Ancients dot com Forward
slash Tours. I want to also

925
01:11:03.319 --> 01:11:09.720
mention that our guide is going to
be Mohammed Imbrahem, who has typically with

926
01:11:09.800 --> 01:11:15.319
us in Egypt, but he is
also adept at tours in Turkey. He

927
01:11:15.439 --> 01:11:18.960
and I came up with his agenda
and we think it's a good one.

928
01:11:19.000 --> 01:11:23.680
It's a good overview of Turkey and
we're looking forward to it. We got

929
01:11:23.800 --> 01:11:28.039

933
01:11:40.640 --> 01:11:45.079
I want to mention that our Sacred
Temples of Mexico is filling up.

934
01:11:45.560 --> 01:11:49.039
That's going to be November eighth through
the seventeenth that's going to be in Yucatan,

935
01:11:49.279 --> 01:11:56.399
and I'll tell you they have found
a number of new ruins in and

936
01:11:56.439 --> 01:12:02.479
around this area where this new tour
train is in Yucatan, so we're gonna

937
01:12:02.479 --> 01:12:09.159
see most of these. And we
also have made arrangements to climb the pyramids

938
01:12:09.199 --> 01:12:16.359
at ushmol Ekpa Loam, Mayapan and
some of the smaller temples that are close

939
01:12:16.399 --> 01:12:20.039
to where we will be, which
is Mareda. Come out and join us

940

Tours and let's take a look at things

941
01:12:25.600 --> 01:12:32.359
together and see the ancient past to
the eyes of the Maya. All right,

942
01:12:32.399 --> 01:12:36.359
