Gravity sucks, but where would we be without it? Join scientists as they work to detect gravity waves in space and map the gravity patterns of the moon for the first time.
It’s the worst case scenario imaginable. When your day job involves the oversight of missile silos, nuclear facilities or a military base, the last complication you want to deal with is a close encounter with a UFO. Here’s the bad news: UFOs seem to be seen at these vital sources of power and defense more than anywhere else. Here, an already frightening phenomenon turns positively chilling for the eyewitnesses involved: a mystery colliding with our national security and the well being of our entire species.
Get chills as three Brazilian men try to account for several lost hours during their encounter with some weird glowing lights. Then hear from a big brother on babysitting duty who is temporarily blinded by a strange object with an epic searchlight.

SCHOOL’S OUT: APRIL 6, 1966 – It’s 11am at the Westall School in Melbourne, Australia when a classroom of students playing outside see a saucer-shaped object in an adjacent field. Word quickly spreads and hundreds of students and teachers observe the strange craft as it touches down metres away. One student jumps the fence and tries to make contact when it suddenly takes off. The incident lasts for 20 minutes. The children are told never to speak of the incident, and it is kept a secret for over 30 years.
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS: NOVEMBER 25, 2009 — On a short drive home from his work near Port Jervis, New York, John Hudson is singing along to Christmas carols when he notices strange lights in the sky. He describes a cigar-shaped object, 200 feet in length, with five multi-coloured lights. As the object passes over his car, his car dies and so does his cell phone. When it finally disappears, his car and cell phone start up again. Investigators believe the effects on his vehicle and cellphone were due to some kind of electromagnetic interference.

Investigate an incident during the summer of 1952, when military jets streaked over the White House on the hunt for two UFOs. Look at how the federal government fought these spectres with DC’s most powerful tools: bureaucracy and obfuscation.
