[Brandon] What a historic time to pull everyone together, and what an amazing year we’ve had.
I want to thank everyone for pulling this together for our final briefing.
[Travis] After a year of groundbreaking new experiments on Skinwalker Ranch, Brandon has gathered our team at his office in Salt Lake City, Utah, for a final review of all the data we collected and to discuss the future of our investigation.
[Brandon] I’m very excited, and I also want to welcome our special guests.
Dr. Jan Francke, who has been with us -through this investigation. -Indeed. [chuckles] I’d also like to thank Jay Stratton, senior intelligence official who has been a key part of taking this whole investigation forward.
Appreciate it.
And of course, welcoming Dr. Hal Puthoff, uh, one of the most respected physicists on the planet.
Dr. Puthoff, thank you so much for joining us.
Well, it’s a pleasure. I appreciate the-the invitation.
[Travis] Erik, you know, one thing we should do is maybe -preface the altitudes of interest. -Mm-hmm.
[Travis] Thanks to the work we did with the drones, we know that between 750 to 1,000 feet, there’s a magnetic anomaly. And then, at 2,000 feet is the top of the bubble. Then there’s another magnetic anomaly at 3,200 feet, where something took control of our instruments and made them suddenly drop out of the sky. [Ellis] Drones are up.
[Travis] Earlier this year, Sky Elements launched 100 drones above the triangle, and found that a giant mass of electromagnetic energy was causing a break in their communication between 750 and 1,000 feet. Looks like the swarm is getting movement all throughout the formation.
[Travis] That made us wonder not only what it was but if it went even higher in the air. So, Sky Elements got a special permit with the FAA
to fly up to 4,000 feet to see what they would encounter.
Looks to me like they’re falling.
[Thomas] Drones coming down! Drones coming down!
[Travis] And that’s what led to this crazy and scary event where four drones were taken over by something at 3,200 feet and fell out of the sky. [Brian] Oh, my gosh.
So, what in the world could these anomalies be?
-And what causes them? -So, let’s play this through.
[Erik] We’re watching the drones ascend.
[Thomas] So, what you’re seeing here is them reaching an altitude of 3,271 feet.
[Hal] Uh-huh.
[Erik] And that’s when the drones were taken over.
-[Brandon] Oh, my gosh. -[Travis] Look at that.
[Travis] Something just told them to suddenly go in a different direction as fast as they could, and then, they turned themselves off and started falling from the sky at 3,000 feet.
Wow.
[Thomas] It’s important to note, as we reviewed the video record, we found evidence of flashes in the sky continuing through this flight.
[Brandon] So, you had flashing throughout the experiment where all of this -was going crazy? -[Travis] Brandon, even more concerning is there’s a flash directly over the drones at their apex.
[Erik] Let me pull up one example.
-Do you have that? -I do, yes.
[Erik] This is gonna require some careful attention to a specific region of the screen.
Okay.
[Travis] Here’s the video of that happening.
[Erik] You’ll see the drones coming.
-[Travis] There’s one. -[Royston] There’s one.
[Erik] You saw the flash? I’m gonna back up just a bit so we can all see it.
Flash, boom.
-Yep. -That’s unequivocal.
[Travis] Out of all the data we’ve taken over the years, I think we collected that much data and then some– multiple orders of magnitude more– this year.
And the UAP activity was higher than ever, too.
[Erik] Yes.
Whether it’s involved electrostatic discharge, you know, we did the high-voltage experiments.
We did thermal experiments, rockets, of course, and Doppler radar.
They all led to UAPs appearing above the ranch.
There is something within the space above the ranch that is active, intelligent, appears to have volition.
“Effectively” intelligent.
-Yes, yep. -[Brandon] Dr. Puthoff, do you recall people telling stories, giving accounts of seeing craft during your investigation on the ranch?
-Oh, yes. -What were some of those reports?
Well, there were descriptions of…
…and a number of people looking at the same time, and they would often describe different shapes, which is really an anomaly…
-Yeah. -…you know, coming down, going into the mesa, coming out.
-So, multiple witnesses. -[Hal] Multiple witnesses.
[Brandon] As fascinating as this discussion has been so far, we have a special guest joining us.
Congressman Tim Burchett, who is standing by.
Yeah, I’m connected, and we’ll bring him up.
-All right. Awesome. -Great.
[Jay] Congressman?
Congressman, welcome.
Well, thank y’all so much for having me on.
[Brandon] Jay, you’ve helped facilitate this, uh, discussion with the Congressman.
[Jay] Definitely. You know, over the last two decades, I’ve spent countless hours with Congress, briefing the UAP topic in an official capacity on behalf of the U.S. government.
And Congressman Burchett, he is a key driver within Congress to help push much-needed transparency about everything going on with the phenomenon.
I appreciate that very kind introduction.
[Travis] In the past, we’ve been lucky to have members of the Utah state government take an interest in our investigation.
But for U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett to meet with us is absolutely next-level.
Based on what members of our military and other national security agencies have encountered in the skies, he’s gone on record that he believes extraterrestrial life exists. He also thinks that our government knows a lot more about it than they’ve told the public, and that it all should be disclosed. [Brandon] Thank you, Congressman.
I’m gonna turn the time to our principal investigator, Erik Bard.
Yeah, one of the events that we want to show you is something we refer to as the in-and-out incident.
Okay. I’ll proceed with the video record frame by frame.
-It’s right here. -[Tim] Yep. Okay.
Travis, would you like to describe to the Congressman -what we’re seeing here? -Yeah, uh, Congressman, we were conducting an experiment, and the helicopter was probably a couple hundred feet in the air.
What’s happening here, Tim, is you see this bright object off to the east, a bluish-white orb, and it flies at a fairly high velocity directly into the solid-rock mesa.
And so, we call that the “in point.” Right.
[Travis] And then we see it exits right there, just below the helicopter, flies underneath the helicopter and then literally just vanishes.
I’ve been briefed in the past by a pilot who described something very similar to this.
There’s gonna be a scientific explanation to this. Maybe it’s not within the realm of our understanding. And frankly, we just need to get to the bottom of it.
We want the American people and the world to realize that these things are real phenomenon, that we don’t know what they are and where they come from and what their intent is.
[Tim] What I’ve said in the past is that I would prefer it to be from folks like you all in the scientific community, the funding would be there for them to research it and to, and to report to us on a regular basis.
I think it would open some new thought processes -and maybe some new avenues. -Absolutely.
and I think y’all have opened up s-some questions that I have, and I’ll be following up with the Pentagon about this. [Travis] To have Congressman Burchett say that he’ll look into what we’re finding at the ranch with officials at the Pentagon is huge.
We need more allies within our government to help us.
So, this could be a very important development for our investigation.
We really appreciate your attention to these matters, Congressman.
We’d like to invite you, at your convenience, to come out to Skinwalker Ranch to see firsthand what we are documenting.
[Tim] I’d be honored to be out there. I would love to go out there and scratch a little of that dirt with y’all.
Thank you, Congressman. We’ll let you go.
-[Travis] Thank you, sir. -Thank y’all very much. As we look forward to the future and we close the chapter on this last year, I would love for us to set up the next phase of experiments and our work in the mesa.
[Travis] Yeah, I think it’s imperative that we-we continue to probe and experiment with the bubble boundary and the triangle.
-[Erik] Mm-hmm. Yes. -Yep.
And the possibility of the bubble connecting distant places on the ranch.
We need to identify what we’re dealing with -at these locations. -Yeah.
[Travis] And we want to connect with others investigating similar types of UAPs -and push for more transparency. -Mm-hmm. Yeah.
[Brandon] The exploration has been going on for many, many years, and I feel like we’re making extraordinary progress.
-Absolutely. -Dr. Puthoff, as the senior science advisor, and the one with the longest tenure at Skinwalker Ranch, do you have advice as we open this next chapter?
Well, the thing that I have seen– which has been the movement from where we were when we did investigate the ranch with, uh, Bigelow’s, uh, assets and so on– and then to see how you’ve brought in such a team of people and increased the kinds of equipment that you’ve, uh, brought to bear, I mean, I’m absolutely in-in awe of what you and your team have, uh, brought to this.
So, uh, all I can do is say, you know, I-I…
vote for you to continue, uh, doing what you’re doing because you’re actually making… making a difference.
-Thank you. -[Travis] Awesome.
Well, I love this team.
We, uh, we’ve become like family over the years.
I don’t think anyone anticipated the journey that would unfold.
And I think we’re just finally getting not only some real answers or, at least, being guided toward the answers, but, uh, we have the world watching.
I applaud everyone’s efforts, and I-I challenge you to continue, uh, to map out the way forward to help us get the answers.
-Absolutely. -All right.
Congratulations on an incredible year at Skinwalker Ranch.
-[Erik] Thank you, Brandon. -[Royston] Thank you.
