So what if... we go out in the east field
to the mesa and bombard it with a signal
that we can easily measure. Maybe we send
the 1.6 gigahertz at it. And then we go out to the mesa on the triangle side
with the receivers and see if we see that signal coming out of the face
of the mesa right there by the triangle. <i> TRAVIS:
To test
the Native American legends</i> <i> about portals
on Skinwalker Ranch,</i> <i> my idea was to use
a signal generator</i> <i> to broadcast a strange
1.6 gigahertz radio signal</i> <i> that we've recorded
during past experiments</i> <i> into the in point
where we saw the UAP</i> <i> entering the mesa last year,</i> <i> which is also the same spot</i> <i> where that petroglyph
is located.</i> <i> And then Erik will have
a signal receiver</i> <i> at the out point where
the UAP exited the mesa</i> <i> and flew towards the triangle.</i> Now here's the thing. Due to the long distance
between us, Erik's receiver
should not be able to detect my transmission. So if he does receive it, that could mean
some kind of direct passageway through the solid rock mesa-- like a portal--
made it possible. It's a worthwhile experiment
to see what happens. <i> BRYANT:
We'll get boots on the ground
right now and find the spots.</i> <i>ERIK:
We're going to start the
experiment with a practice run.</i> <i> Jim Royston will be flying
his lidar drone</i> <i> between the in and out points
of the mesa.</i> <i> The question is
whether the lidar,</i> the GPS or the drone itself will detect any strange readings or interruptions along the way. So, this is all automated?
You've set the path? Yes. Yep, so this
will have a path, it's going to stay
right at 300 feet. Erik will track this path <i> and see, really,
what's happening,</i> <i> potentially,
at that entrance or exit.</i> -That's fantastic.
-ROYSTON: Yep. <i> AUTOMATED VOICE:
Return to home.</i> <i>ROYSTON:
Guys, we just, we fully lost it.</i> -What happened?
-ROYSTON: It's returning
to home. The aircraft
completely disconnected. ERIK:
So, there's something
out there messing with GPS. -Is that correct?
-ROYSTON: That's absolutely
correct, Erik. ROYSTON:
All right, guys,
so it's coming home. I want your eyes on this. -ROYSTON: Wow. Look at that gap.
-BRYANT: Oh, my gosh. The same spot
as the photogrammetry's spire. That seems more than
a coincidence to me. I agree. <i> TRAVIS (over walkie):
Dragon?</i> Yeah, go ahead, Travis. Right when the drone
flew through the, uh, spire, <i> you know,
the photogrammetry anomaly.</i> Well, that correlates
with what we saw. With the real-time data
that Erik was taking off of the lidar drone. I agree. BRYANT:
All right, Travis, go ahead and start broadcasting. I'm at 1.6 gigahertz, <i> and I'm starting broadcasting</i> <i> in three, two,</i> one. THOMAS:
Uh... (chuckles) Why did I just see
peaks come up? -KALEB: Wow.
-ERIK: Yeah. Can you tell him
to turn it off again? Hey, Travis, do you mind
turning that off? Copy that.
We're gonna turn it off in three, two, one. <i> It is off.</i> ERIK:
Whoa. Yeah, so, we are picking up when he's turning things
on and off. Hey, Travis, <i> this is really interesting.</i> <i> We definitely
had some signal that</i> correlated with your countdown. We shouldn't be. Now let's have him
turn it on again. Okay, can you go ahead
and turn it back on again? <i> TRAVIS:
It is on.</i> <i> ERIK:
Now, normally,</i> <i> we should get absolutely
nothing through the rock.</i> <i> Our little RF signal generator</i> <i> is just not strong enough
to be detected</i> <i> over the distances involved,</i> <i> especially with a big mesa
in the way.</i> There appears to be
something connecting these two locations in the east canyon area and this area that's facing
the triangle. Hey, Travis,
we're gonna go ahead and fly the drone mission... Copy that. <i> ROYSTON:
Okay, we're getting</i> good signal now, as you can see. ERIK:
Oh. -I just saw a...
-Yeah. I just saw a glitch there. Yeah, this time on ascent, it looks like it was headed off
towards the south, even though I know
it went just straight up. <i> TRAVIS:
It was really strange</i> <i>when the GPS device on the drone</i> <i> that Jim Royston deployed
collected data</i> <i> indicating that the drone
flew to the south</i> because they saw it lift
straight up off the ground. So, what was
redirecting that data? And could it have been related to the communications signal
that I detected? Here we go,
controller interference again. <i> Similar spot, right?</i> I want your eyes on this. <i> -Look right there.
-ROYSTON: Look at that.</i> <i> -Wow. Look at that gap.
-BRYANT: Oh, my gosh.</i> <i> ERIK: We-We've run
into interference</i> <i> in that spot before.</i> There's a gap
in the data right where he called out
controller interference. BRYANT:
That's crazy. All right, man. All right, I say we break down. <i> In the moment, this experiment</i> <i> definitely indicated
that there is some kind of</i> <i> phenomenal connection between
the east field,</i> <i> or in point, and the out point
near the triangle.</i> So, what could
that connection really be? And, also, why did we detect a possible communication signal
during this experiment? <i> -TRAVIS: Hey, Erik.
-ERIK: Hey, guys. Hey.</i> -What's going on?
-You're gonna like this. ERIK:
So, I want to take us to the high-speed video footage
that you guys got out in the-- in the, um,
east field canyon area. Oh, yeah. Yeah,
so we were sitting right in front
of the petroglyph. ERIK:
I created this filter so that I could bring out
some of the detail. TRAVIS:
Okay, so this is
all on the high-speed camera. -It's looking straight
at the triangle.
-Yes. So we've got an event here. TRAVIS:
Oh, wow. What is that? Is that the drone? This is moving a lot faster. Wow, what is that? Let's dive in on that. So this is
the contrast enhancement. All right. We have
the original footage here we're gonna take a look at. We've got something going on
over here. -TRAVIS:
Yeah, there it is up there.
-KALEB: There it is. ERIK:
So let's just watch
this thing move. TRAVIS:
And, again, it's daytime. We're not seeing a satellite, and it's not a airplane
moving that fast. Now let me show you
where it comes into the frame. I don't remember ever seeing
anything in the sky like that. So, at around the 2:30 mark, this thing emerges. You'll see it
on the left-hand side. TRAVIS:
I'm looking. -KALEB: Right there,
up on the top.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah. ERIK:
Got it? -TRAVIS: Yeah, look at that.
-ERIK: All right, so I'm gonna dive in
on the contrast enhancement. TRAVIS: All right,
so keep in mind it's going seven and a half times faster. -ERIK: Now, one of the things
that stands out--
-Look, there's something. -It looks like there's something
under it. Moving with it.
-Uh-huh. TRAVIS: And then what's this
thing at the bottom coming up? -ERIK: You see
what's happening here?
-Yeah, you got three things -on the camera. Four things!
There's one over here.
-Here. Here. ERIK:
Yeah, let me freeze this, and let's dive into each
of these. TRAVIS: Look. Back up
just a little bit, Erik. So there's something here. There's something here. And there's something here. ERIK:
Yeah. And as you let it move forward, you can see they're moving. And they're not
necessarily moving together. -ERIK: Right.
-But they're moving at about-- Oh, here's another piece
right here. ERIK:
Right, so we've got four things in this one frame, which is actually, you know,
zoomed-in on the... -on the footage.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
-Yeah, let's take a look.
One of the things that really stands out for me
is this very rectangular geometry, the edge definition. You know, this thing
never takes on a-- It never changes its appearance. It always seems to be
this rectangular, dark-on-top, light-on-bottom, -uh, type of a feature.
-And I don't see anything like wings
flapping around at all. Yeah, I sure don't either. And it's moving
like an aircraft or, uh, something but much faster. ERIK:
Now look at the change
in direction. TRAVIS:
Oh, and it sped up. ERIK:
Look what's happening. It's speeding way up. ERIK:
And it seems to be diving. But that's not all
it's gonna do. Watch what happens here. KALEB:
Oh, it slows down. That thing is basically
in the triangle airspace. TRAVIS:
So it came from, you know,
the middle of nowhere, swoops in, and then turns back. ERIK:
Below cloud level
and apparently down. Like it's turning to make a final approach
here, like it's coming in -for a landing or something.
-Yeah. <i>TRAVIS:
Seeing this UAP suddenly appear</i> <i>and then maneuver directly above
the triangle was incredible.</i> <i> Because last year...</i> -Look at that.
-That's interesting. <i> ...that's right where Jim
Royston's lidar drone detected</i> <i>a perfectly circular ring
with a black void in the center</i> <i> that we've speculated
could be related</i> <i> to a wormhole or portal.</i> Could this UAP appearing
at that location be evidence that just might confirm
our suspicions and maybe validate
all the legends we've heard about portals
on Skinwalker Ranch?
