Just watched the ufo/nukes episode. Very interesting. Just about every incident was from the 90's and one that I had not heard of before. Sightings were all around and near nuclear AFB bases, with the exception of the ufo seen in Jordan that may have had curiosity about some unmarked box in the desert that may have had some type of nuclear device in it as no one wanted to talk about it contents. Was not aware of a second sighting of a ufo over/near Malstrom AFB. The types of ufo's seen were all different here, which was also noted. Thought the witnesses were very credible, but being military they should be. Very interesting episode. Obviously there is great interest still in our defensive capabilities from our neighbors.

It's interesting they didn't even try to speculate it was some sort of UFO tech in the box. They never saw in the box but I guess the chatter was nukes? That's also a good cover story if it's alien because people will gladly keep their distance from "nukes". lol It's not like nukes were a secret at the time so you'd think they would just tell the guards, it's nukes don't be an idiot, keep your distance and don't let anyone near! It sounded like a very large box that was not at all missile shaped. What kind of nuke would need a box big enough to drive a car through?

What you need to understand is that there is this concept in the military of “need to know”. You are only told the bare minimum, the need to know. If you are low ranking enlisted as they were, there wasn’t any need to know anything. Hence they were not told anything. I can assure you, nuclear stuff was very much secretive, and you had to have a very high security clearance and be vetted to be told anything. And from what I understand, some missile heads alone are the size of a house, so it very well could have been that large. It may not have been missile shaped, but probably had a lot of packing material to keep the warhead stable.
Saying the US gov supports foreign UFO programs is great but again we need hard proof.

" As usual the eye witness testimony is compelling but we already have so much of that we really need them to start showing hard evidence or it's just like every other UFO show. All talk and wobbly video."
The cell phone video by the pilot is cool and matches video taken on the ground but it's still subject to the issue that when you point a camera at a bright object far away at night you may be getting some camera effects as is struggles to focus properly. The de-bunker guy also made good point about rockets etc dumping fuel in space which can make weird colors and so on."
I understand your point about needing hard evidence, but for now have to take the words and in some cases the video of what has been seen in the skies all around the world. I would say again to a skeptic, do you think anyone would risk their military career by coming forward and lying, to talk about what they saw? The stigma is alive as was shown by the Argentinian Airline Pilot who was filmed in the shadows, sadly.

I will accept the claim made fwiw.
Overall enjoyed this episode and found the witnesses compelling.

Just saw the next episode Sat. ( # 5) is "Airline Pilots." They talk about the many sightings and near misses by US Airline Pilots. Included is the encounter by one "legendary" US Airline pilot of a glowing orange sphere that followed him over Arizona. A picture of the ufo is also included. Looking forward to this one!
