Pete, I know that you've got some data to share with us
- from the bubble boundary. - Mm-hmm.
Now what is this?
[Erik] It seems like the trees there
appear to be pushed up in the sky
above the homestead area.
- [Travis] Wow! - [Royston] Travis,
it looks like it's coming our way.
[Travis over walkie] Yeah, it came backwards on us.
[Royston] That's crazy. Did that just reverse when
we hit the bubble wall?
Out of nowhere, we've got something moving around...
[Travis] Oh, yeah. Look at that, look at that. I can see it now.
That's got to be hundreds of feet in the air.
[Erik] Yeah.
[Travis] What in the world is that?
[Narrator] There is a ranch in Northern Utah.
It is considered the epicenter
of the strangest and most disturbing occurrences on Earth.
For two decades,
the federal government
investigated the property.
Their findings have never been made public.
[Travis] Right there! We got something!
[Narrator] Now a new team
of independent scientists and researchers are taking over.
They are uncovering evidence
that the countless stories...
It came right out of the mesa.
...of unidentified aerial phenomena...
UAP right there!
...bizarre energies...
It looks like there's a heat source right above 'em.
...and portals that lead to other dimensions...
We're maybe looking at the anomaly
for the first time, guys.
...might actually be true.
They will stop at nothing to reveal...
...The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.
[Kaleb] Welcome to Skinwalker Ranch, Governor.
Thanks so much for helping us out.
- Yeah. -[Kaleb] Just go around right here.
With all the evidence of strange and unnatural things
that we've found on Skinwalker Ranch...
- [Cox] Gentlemen. - Hey!
How we doing?
[Travis] ...Brandon Fugal invited the governor of Utah,
Spencer Cox, to come out to the property
and get a special briefing.
Well, welcome. This is the command center.
We'll be showing you a few things. Come on over, Governor.
[Brandon] By visiting the ranch, Governor Cox has
recognized the importance of our investigation.
Skinwalker Ranch has not only been
the center for high strangeness
but has been at the heart of congressional hearings
and key briefings in Washington D.C.
dealing with the topic of unidentified aerial phenomena.
It has also been the subject of science efforts
by Robert Bigelow, with the federal government,
spanning decades.
I'm sure you're hearing from people all the time,
as governor of the state of Utah.
Everyone, globally, is asking what is going on
- at Skinwalker Ranch. - I hear it all the time.
And, as the sitting governor of the state of Utah,
what concerns you most, and do you have any questions for us?
Well, obviously, we're concerned
about things that happen in our state, right?
And-and the historic pieces of that state.
This is an incredible place.
You know, what's fascinating to me is
it seems like everyone has a story
about something they've experienced out here.
I mean, young kids would come out here and-and play,
and-and they all come back with some sort of story,
including big dog, wolflike creatures, and...
We have a history in our state,
before you owned the ranch, um,
of-of secret government experiments
that may have happened.
So, yeah, I think any governor would be concerned.
We want to know what-what's happening in our state.
[Brandon] Well, what we want to show you
is some of our latest findings on the ranch
that continue to be the focus of our investigation.
'Kay. Looking forward to it.
[Brandon] The mesa.
We've extracted material
that is of manufactured origin,
that is not naturally occurring.
Here's a photo of these ceramics, Governor.
We've had that material analyzed at Utah Valley University.
We utilized the scanning electron microscope
in order to analyze the material,
with surprising results.
It just deepens the mystery.
[Travis] Governor, let Erik and I
kind of put it in perspective for you.
It looks like the modern-day ceramic
that's used in the aerospace industry.
So how did it get inside there, in the mesa?
- Wow. -[Erik] Let me pull up some of the footage
from the lab tests.
[Travis] So, if you look at this image right here,
right as we turn the electron beam on,
- it's like it's opening up. - [Cox] Wow.
At first, we thought we were damaging it.
But then, when we turned the beam off,
- it put itself back together. - That's wild.
- Unbelievable, right? - Yeah.
[Travis] But probably one of the strangest areas
here on the ranch is a spot we call the triangle.
- Okay. -[Travis] That particular region, uh,
shows data corruption,
distortions, anomalies,
and even failures of multiple instruments.
- Wow. - [Travis] So from, say,
a state security standpoint,
if there's something that can manipulate electronics
in a given area, that's very interesting from
a "how do we secure our information
- and data" perspective. - Yeah. Yeah.
[Brandon] So, in addition to
sophisticated technology behaving strangely,
we've also had other events in Homestead Two.
[Travis] One of the spots
that we wanted to tell Governor Cox about
was the old, 20th-century ruin
that's better known as Homestead Two.
Since we started our investigation
at Skinwalker Ranch,
this place has been a hot spot
of unexplainable phenomena.
We've seen what many people think may be
evidence of portals out in that region
- of the property and around those structures. -Wow.
Well, I was at a-a conference and just happened to be on
the same panel with this particular rabbi.
And I told him that we've got this place
that the locals say that portals open up and so on.
And he said, "Well, you know, there's a,
there's a Hebrew ceremony to open portals to the heavens."
Hmm.
[chanting in Hebrew]
[Travis] In 2020, we had Rabbi Ariel Tzadok
perform an ancient Hebrew ceremony
that he believed could actually open a portal
at Homestead Two.
He was following up on work by Robert Bigelow's team,
who claimed they saw a portal open up
in front of the buildings there.
And then some kind of creature--
or skinwalker-- crawled out of it.
[Travis] Oh, wow.
- It's freezing right here. - [Erik] It is.
You are right in the center of that region.
[Travis] During the rabbi's ceremony,
a strange cold spot suddenly appeared on our thermal camera,
right in front of the homestead
where Bigelow's team claimed to see that portal.
That's crazy.
It's like an eye.
How do you localize temperature in such a small spot?
Just by a religious ceremony?
And since we've also been looking for Ute and Navajo, uh,
and-and other tribal members that would be
willing to come and do other ceremonies as well.
We've been repeating experiments,
following the scientific method
every step of the way with our investigation.
[Travis] And we've actually got a Navajo shaman
coming out tomorrow night to do just that.
Governor, you're literally in a living laboratory,
a test bed that is unlike any other environment on the planet.
Let's take a look at it.
Uh, and I think we will depart
- to go out to Homestead Two. - [Cox] Okay.
- [Brandon] Does that sound good? -Yeah.
[Brandon] So, Governor, welcome to Homestead Two.
[Erik] This is the area that we saw that cold zone.
- Right here. -[Travis] Right through this opening
is where the cold mass was.
[Thomas] Not to mention what's happened to people out here.
[Travis] Besides the cold spot, we've had folks experience
some strange physical reactions around Homestead Two,
including myself.
[Travis] What the crap is that?
[Travis] When I first joined the team in 2019,
I opened up a well at Homestead Two
and immediately felt sick.
I've got a little bit of
a headache or something happening.
Turns out, I had been hit by a dangerous spike of radiation.
And burns showed up on my face and hands a few days later.
And the following year, a visitor named Roland McCook
came out to tell us about an experience
he had as a teenager, when he believes he came
face-to-face with a skinwalker.
[Roland] It came out, red eyes.
Probably like eight feet tall.
And then it just, it pointed at me...
...and all you hear is the biggest roar, just...
[imitates roar]
Loudest roar I ever heard.
Hold on.
[Travis] And while he was telling his story,
he was immediately overcome by some kind of illness.
- Bit dizzy there. - Are you blacking out?
- Yeah. - Hang on and just breathe.
[Travis] But the most serious case was in 2016,
when Thomas ended up in the hospital
with a mysterious brain injury
while he was doing nothing more than just digging on the ranch.
There seems to be something truly unexplained going on.
In places like this,
in the Basin, we have some weird stuff.
Well, it's, uh, something that defies any real explanation.
I was honored to facilitate this visit with Governor Cox
and to see him actually walk the property,
visit the homesteads,
and to be able to engage with the team.
We look forward to keeping him updated
as our investigation continues to unfold and expand.
Well, I know you've got important business to attend to.
Thank you, Governor, for coming out.
- Thank you, Brandon. - You're welcome here anytime,
and we appreciate all your service for the state of Utah.
- Thanks for the great work you guys do. -Thank you.
- It was so nice to meet all of you. -Pleasure.
- Nice to meet you. - Thank you.
[Travis] Hey, fellas.
Jan, Pete, how are y'all doing?
- Good. - Good. -Good.
[Travis] After our meeting with Governor Cox,
we headed back out to the mesa
with ground-penetrating radar expert Jan Francke
to continue our work with the guys from Triple A Drilling.
[Erik] Lots of plans for the day.
So, I understand that you got down 11 feet.
- Yes. - Okay, perfect.
[Travis] A few days ago, we started drilling our first
four-foot-diameter vertical borehole.
It's targeting the spot, 33 feet below,
where we hit that hard object
with the horizontal drill hole last year
and found those ceramic materials.
So, Jan, do I understand
that today we have you back to do more scans
with your GPR equipment?
- But of course, of course. - Sounds good to me.
[Travis] So while the drilling was happening,
Jan was back to run another GPR scan
along the face of the mesa.
Last week, he took scans with a smaller GPR device
that we inserted into Borehole 1,
so we could get some brand-new scans
inside the mesa.
Today, he's brought a different and more powerful unit
that we can run across the mesa's surface.
We've got this weird sort of oblong target
that's inside the mesa.
We've seen it from the top.
I want to see it from as many angles as possible.
So, uh, I think we all have a plan of action.
- Yes, sir. -Yes. - [Erik] Well, let's get to it.
- All right. Let's go. - All right.
All right. You can drill.
[Travis] As the drillers got back to work...
- All right, dude. Let's get going. -Okay.
...Jan gave Kaleb and me the device
so we could perform the scan.
Hey, Erik. Do you copy?
Yeah, Travis, what do you got?
Kaleb and I are starting our first run with the GPR,
and Jan said he's at about 45 megahertz.
I was wondering if y'all were seeing that
- on the spectrum analyzers. - Yeah, copy that.
You better believe we are.
Copy that. Out.
Jan's GPR emits a very specific frequency of 45 megahertz.
So while we were running the GPR,
Erik and Sam were gonna keep a close eye
on our spectrum analyzers to look for
that signal and any strange ones
like we've seen in the past when we're drilling.
- Let me get to where you are. - [Kaleb] Yep.
- It's all you. I'm letting go. - [Kaleb] All right.
All right, zigzag the parking lot
and, uh, turn this thing off.
- Then we're done. - All right.
[Travis] As rough and uneven as the mesa is,
hopefully Kaleb and I were able to get good data that will
give us better images of whatever's in there.
Whoa, what's that signal?
We're picking up that 45 megahertz
bigger than crap.
Look at that.
You can see the big bump in the middle?
That's the frequency the GPR was running at.
You shut off your GPR, right?
- Oh, yeah, I shut it off. I-- - You turned--
- You disconnected it. - Yeah, it's off.
[Travis] That's a huge freaking signal.
And it's coming from the mesa.
- [Kaleb] That's weird. - [exhales]
Yeah, that's what I say. It's weird.
[Travis] This is one of the weirdest things
that keeps happening across the ranch.
Our instruments will broadcast a signal during an experiment.
But then, after we shut it off, we'll see the same signal
being broadcast back at us from some unknown source.
It's like something on the ranch clones our signals.
What the heck could be doing that?
And why?
Hey, Erik, it's Travis. Do you copy?
Hey, Travis.
- What's up? - [Travis] We're done
with the, uh, GPR,
and the really weird thing,
when we turned it off,
there's a strong signal coming from the mesa
at about 45 megahertz.
Wow, that's bizarre.
[Erik] That is really strange.
[Travis] So there's a signal, right now,
that's-that's mimicking the, uh, GPR signal.
- That's weird. -[Erik] What do you make of that?
[Jan] You know, we're pumping energy
into the ground, for whatever reason,
and we get some response back.
But-- What?
[Travis] Did this signal come from
whatever's inside the mesa?
Hopefully, between the processed GPR data
and the drilling operation,
we'll figure that out soon.
Hey, guys. So talk to us about the drilling, Thomas.
Well, they've made progress.
We're at 16 feet.
- [Erik] Sixteen. - Yep.
Well, we got a couple of really good runs.
- Yup. -Yeah, I know you're going to go crunch the numbers.
Yeah, I-I say we get back in touch
- and get the final word on it. - Absolutely. Yep.
[Thomas] Always good to have you here.
[Jan] Well, thanks for having me out.
[Travis] While we were waiting for Jan to process his data,
the next day we had some special guests come out
to help us with our new experiment at Homestead Two.
[Jim] Maddy, let me introduce you to
our good friends here. This is Erik...
- Erik Bard. - Hello. Maddy. Nice to meet you.
[Travis] We were joined by Maddy Farrer,
a neuroscientist from Utah Valley University,
and our friend,
retired Navajo Ranger Jon Dover,
who brought along Navajo shaman Art Hardy.
Welcome to the ranch, you guys.
Just, uh, great to have you out here to investigate
the phenomena that we have
been observing here for years now.
Thank you for having me.
Art agreed to perform a sacred prayer ritual,
like we did with the rabbi experiment a couple years back.
We wanted to see if these kinds of rituals
can consistently trigger similar results.
That way, maybe we can get some answers
about what causes the phenomena at Homestead Two.
I think tonight's experiment's gonna be really exciting,
where we have someone who's connected tribally, you know,
to-to the area.
Art, tell us a little bit about
what you plan to do for us tonight.
I would like to start off with doing a ceremony
to see if we can instigate maybe a connection
or a contact of some sort.
And then work my way into the...
into the housing area.
Just kind of instigating to see if there was any kind of,
I don't know, feedback.
Uh, it sounds very diagnostic.
You hit the nail on the head.
Uh, so we do consider them diagnostic, in a sense,
because we're-we're basically, uh, investigators.
I see. Mm.
So you'll do your ceremony outside the homestead,
and then we'll go into the individual buildings.
And let you guys reach out to see what's going on.
- Right. - And, uh, at the same time
I think the idea is you're gonna
have a sensor on Art, uh,
and-and monitor his brain waves.
Yeah, absolutely.
[Travis] After the prayer ritual,
Art will physically go into the structures at Homestead Two.
He'll be wearing an EEG, or electroencephalogram device.
Given the past health issues that I
and others have had here,
we want to be able to measure any strange effects
that being in the homestead
might have on his brain and body.
[Maddy] So, Art, kind of what we're gonna do
is we're going to put an EEG headset on you.
Our brain, the way it communicates
is it's all electrical. Right?
Uh, yes. Our body is-is a conductor.
Obviously, we're made of water, 70%.
Um, water is highly, uh, conductive.
[Maddy] Yeah, absolutely.
So, as we connect that to your brain
through the scalp, on the skull,
every electrical signal that your brain is sending,
we are gonna be able to pick up on.
If you're feeling nervous,
if you're feeling a little bit more anxious or relaxed,
we're going to be able to pick up on that in vivo,
so in real time.
[Erik] So, I say we get started.
I'll take you guys out and we can start prepping.
- Sounds great. - All right. Let's get to it.
[Travis] All right, well, I say we get to work.
[Pete] Here we go.
[Travis] We were really excited that Art agreed to perform
a Navajo ceremony to see if we could
make something strange appear at Homestead Two.
Most Navajo people refuse to set foot on the ranch,
because they believe
it's inhabited by evil and dangerous entities.
That's where Skinwalker Ranch got its name.
So, for him to put himself out there like this
for our investigation was really appreciated.
[Thomas] Well, this is a step up from what it was
- when we did the rabbi. - [Travis] Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Travis, you're coming through loud and clear.
[Travis] While Erik set up in the command center
to monitor the experiment with his surveillance system,
we prepped high-speed and thermal cameras--
as well as lidar devices--
all aimed at the homestead
to record data during the experiment.
This will hopefully ensure that we capture
any evidence of strange activity
that can't be seen by the naked eye.
[Maddy] Before we get started,
what I'd like to do, Art, is I want to get you set up
with the EEG and we get a baseline.
Okay. Well, that sounds good to me.
All right. Well, I say we've got a lot of work to do
to get started and the sun's sinking quick,
so let's get to work.
[Maddy] We'll go ahead and we'll get this cap on you.
Well, first, we're doing a baseline reading,
so we can see what those
wavelengths look like and what every channel
and every part of his brain
was looking like before going into this experiment
so we can have some really good frames of reference
to compare to the EEG scans in Homestead Two.
If you could take a couple deep breaths for me...
Beautiful. Okay.
His baseline readings look very typical.
They're not moving, there's no muscle tension there,
so we have normal EEG scans with normal wavelengths,
normal amplitudes,
normal brain activity.
That will conclude our baseline,
so we got a good baseline on you.
Looks like a normal brain to me.
[Kaleb] Hey, Travis, do you copy?
Yeah, Kaleb. What's going on?
We just finished up with the baseline
on the EEG down here, uh,
so we're going to wait for it to get dark before we start.
[Travis] I think that's a good idea. Let's-let's do that.
10-4.
[Travis] So, why don't you guys go ahead and move
into your next phase of this experiment?
Well, I would like to start and see if we can
instigate maybe a connection or contact of some sort.
All right. Great, let's do it.
Because this was a sacred Navajo ceremony,
there were some parts of it
that Art asked us not to record.
So, we had to respect that.
All that really mattered was
what might happen as he performed it.
- We're good to begin when you're ready. -Okay.
We're gonna turn our radios down.
I'm gonna give you your space and back off some distance.
Sure. Thank you.
♪ ♪
[insects trilling]
Sam, are you getting something at 1.6?
I'm seeing, like, a pulse, coming from that direction.
Yeah, that's what I'm getting.
'Cause I'm using my directional antenna, scanning around,
and that's where I'm seeing it from.
[Travis] And it's coming directly
- from Homestead Two. - [Sam] Yeah.
You know what, I'm taking my handheld,
I'm going down there.
- You got a walkie? - Yeah.
[Travis] All right.
I'm headed that way. Let's go.
Right as Art Hardy started his prayer
outside Homestead Two,
this strange, 1.6-gigahertz signal
showed up on our spectrum analyzers.
It's getting stronger as we get closer.
And it seemed to be coming
from inside the house.
[Travis] Oh, wait, wait, wait.
Uh, it's right here. We got a peak right here.
Sure enough, once we got in the building,
I was able to isolate the signal.
But what was the source?
And was it provoked by Art's ceremony?
[Travis over walkie] Hey, Erik.
We're having a huge hit
out here, uh, at Homestead Two, around 1.6.
It's gigantic.
Well, um, yeah. What can I say?
That's unusual.
- Keep an eye on it. - Yeah, man.
Thomas, we're gonna head back.
[Thomas] Okay.
[Travis] I don't know why we see so many
1.6-gigahertz signals on Skinwalker Ranch,
but we've thought it could be a form of communication
from something or someone.
Since it popped up when Art was saying his prayer,
that's a pretty compelling correlation.
It made us wonder if he was actually making contact
with something strange at Homestead Two.
So, we headed back to the science table
while Art's ceremony continued,
to see if anything more interesting would happen.
Oh, wow.
That is crazy.
Take a look at this.
This is just crazy.
This tree was heating up. Right here.
That bright yellow color means it's getting really hot.
This is incredible.
I mean... this is really bright.
[Pete] And it keeps getting hotter.
[Dave] Travis, we're getting some really big
changes of temperature.
Just-- These things are just starting to heat up
like a Christmas tree.
[Travis] Well, that's really interesting.
It's like the temperature's...
- all kind of messed up - Yeah.
[Travis] Last time we did this, with the rabbi,
we had a huge cold spot
appear right in front of the buildings.
But this time, we're seeing hot spots high in the trees
at Homestead Two.
Major heat.
And you can't hardly even see the house.
- The tree is hotter than the house. -Yeah.
[Dave] Right here.
[Travis] It's fascinating that we're getting
a temperature reaction during this prayer ritual,
but it's the total opposite of what we saw before.
What could be causing that?
It doesn't make any sense.
[Dave] No-None of this makes any sense.
I've never seen it like this.
I've seen temperature changes, but not this much.
[blows whistle]
[blows four times]
[Travis] I think that was the end of the ceremony.
Keep-- keep watching that.
If something happens, let me know.
I'm gonna go talk to him.
[Travis] Art, uh, if you don't mind,
would you kind of tell me a little bit about
what that ceremony was about?
Sure. With what's been happening here on Skinwalker Ranch,
there's a lot of, um, weird energy.
So, the way that I incorporated my prayer with that was to
call upon that source of power
and hopefully we may
document it, maybe capture it...
um... in...
- you know, for scientific purposes. -That's amazing.
So, earlier, you said you wanted to go into a couple
of the buildings at Homestead Two
as part of your ceremony.
That's not going to be a ceremony.
Um, what I'm doing down there
is kind of instigating.
Oh. So you're just probing,
- hoping something will come back. -Yeah.
[Travis] Poking the hornet's nest.
- That's hardcore, man. - Right.
[Travis] Well, we're ready whenever you are.
Kaleb, you want to take him down there,
and Maddy, you gonna hook him up to the EEG?
- [Maddy] Yes. - Okay. Let's go.
[Maddy] If you're ready,
we can go ahead and get the cap on you.
[Travis] Before Art went into the homestead buildings,
we wanted to get another reading with the EEG
to compare his brain activity
to the baseline scan Maddy had taken earlier.
You'll have to take your glasses off.
Okay.
[Kaleb] A lot more activity there now than there was
- during the baseline. - [Maddy] Yeah.
There definitely is.
- [Kaleb] That's interesting. - [Maddy] Interesting.
Baseline readings were very typical...
...but now...
...we had Art's brain emitting those high-frequency waves
indicative of high stress.
But we can see Art was relaxed,
so it made no sense.
Well, let's see what kind of data we get
when you go into one of the buildings.
Okay.
Um... I want to go into that house.
- [beeps] - What?
It... it just stopped working.
[Maddy chuckles]
- [beeps] - [Kaleb] What's that?
The-the headset just stopped working.
[Kaleb] The moment he walked in there.
[Maddy] It's just... it's gone.
- Hey, Art? - [Maddy] It's done.
- Yeah? - Would you mind walking
outside of the front of the house real quick?
Come back over here real quick.
[Art] Yeah. Did you lose it?
- Yeah, the moment you walked in there... -[Maddy] It's down.
- ...it's like it doesn't even exist. -[Maddy] Uh-uh.
[beeps]
[Maddy] Okay, now it's picking it up again.
Okay, we're-we're back.
- [Maddy chuckles] - Nice.
But, I mean, this range is 30 feet,
so there should be no reason
why it's not picking up on any data.
[Kaleb] But you were only 15 feet away.
There's one way to test, is go back in
and stick my head out the window.
- Right. - [Maddy] We could do that.
- Yeah. - You know? Let's-let's try that.
Okay.
[Art] You got me?
- [Maddy] Nope. - [Art] Nope?
[Maddy] It's done, it's dead.
I'm going to stick my head out the window here.
[Maddy] Okay, we're getting something.
- [Art] You got me now? - [Kaleb] Yeah.
Okay.
Back in the house.
[Maddy] What?
- [Art] Disappeared? - Yeah. -[Maddy] It's done.
- [beeps] -[Maddy] Now, all of a sudden,
- the headset's gonna... - [Kaleb] Yeah.
The headset's also saying it's gonna die,
but then the charge comes back and then
it says it's going to die again.
I charged it for four hours today.
The battery is good.
Did you see how it just went down to that?
But it-it was charged.
- [Kaleb] Yeah. - But now it's gonna die.
That doesn't make any sense.
[Maddy] See? It's gone.
What?
This is just...
unexplainable.
"No headset discovered."
[Travis] Now this was really strange.
The second Art Hardy stepped inside the main building
of Homestead Two, we lost total communication
with the EEG device monitoring his brain.
Even the battery, which was fully charged,
suddenly went dead.
Did something in the homestead cause this?
And if so, was it connected
to the 1.6-gigahertz signal
we got earlier or even the heat anomalies
above the buildings?
Is there any other steps that we can do
to maybe try and get this going again? Or...
We could potentially pull out another headset...
- Okay. - ...and see if a new one
is going to give us some data.
We have backups.
- Okay. - Let's see.
- Do you want to take it off? - Sure.
I've never experienced anything like that before in my life.
Okay, so that's in range.
We had to go get another EEG cap,
trying to get some readings again.
- This one's working. - All right.
- [Maddy] You ready to do this thing again? 'Kay. -Yeah.
[Travis] Just to make sure that the malfunction with
the EEG wasn't happening
because it was too far away from Maddy's laptop,
she and Kaleb joined Art
when he went into the buildings.
[Kaleb] Still good data?
[Maddy] Still pretty good.
[Art] So let's see if we get a reaction
- or anything. - Uh-huh. -[Kaleb] Yeah.
What's the data show?
Currently, right now, we're seeing that you're in
a very focused state.
I'm curious, do you mind if we walk back
into the main building of Homestead Two?
- [Art] To check out the data? - Yeah.
- See if we get that same thing happen again? -Okay.
[Kaleb] Just watch your step right here.
- Yeah. - I'll step right there.
[Maddy sighs]
Still working?
So far.
Hey, Travis, come look at this.
[Travis] Whoa. Look at that.
1.6 is tore up, dude.
1.6 is just nuts on five different machines.
What do you make of that?
That's a big signal.
The second they went back into the main building
of Homestead Two,
another 1.6-gigahertz signal
popped up on all of our spectrum analyzers.
That's too crazy to be a coincidence.
It really seemed like something didn't want us in there.
I'm getting the same signal
on five different devices.
So on one, two, three, four,
and Sam's got it over there.
That's a lot of transmission.
But the weird part about it, Thomas, is it's coming from
Homestead Two.
Uh, whoa. Whoa.
Whoa!
This doesn't... this doesn't make any sense!
This is very odd.
[Maddy] This doesn't make any sense.
So, what we should be seeing
is the same focused state we were seeing over there.
Now that we're in here, all we are seeing is
just, like, this high-frequency band.
Which could be attributed to movement,
but you're not moving.
When Art moved into that second structure at Homestead Two,
the EEG readings were really strange.
I've never seen anything like that before.
You can see high bursts of brain waves,
which could be indicative of high stress.
Or if he was clenching all of his muscles
and bearing down
and creating intense muscle tension.
I haven't seen that all night.
[Maddy] So this makes no logical sense.
But our Navajo shaman is relaxed,
is not moving.
So I think there was
something else anomalous
interacting with the EEG system
and emitting those high-frequency waves.
Hey, Travis, it's Kaleb. You copy?
Yeah, Kaleb. Go ahead.
We got some really interesting data here,
and it's fascinating. So, we'll head back up to the main table.
[Travis] Copy that.
Hey, Erik, we're done.
We'll just see you down by
- Homestead Two? - [Erik] Copy you, Travis.
I'll head over pretty soon.
Well, I have to admit,
there were quite a few interesting events noted
during the duration of the ceremony, or the experiment,
in particular the EEG data.
I'm so looking forward to reviewing
the data from this evening.
Hey, guys.
So, tell me what you saw, tell me what happened.
Oh, I don't even know how to even explain
what we had happen right over there at Homestead Two.
I-I just want to get my hands on the data.
- Mm-hmm. - [Travis] Well, look, um,
Art, Jon, Maddy,
thank you so much. This has been great.
I think we've got a lot to learn from this
- and a lot of analysis. - Yeah.
[Travis] So, uh, I say we pack it up
and let's get on and call it a night.
- All right? - [Art] Thank you.
[Erik] Guys...
we have several things to cover.
Hi, Maddy. Thanks for joining us.
It's great to be back.
Well, our work with Art Hardy brought a new data type.
Not only are we seeing a Navajo shaman ritual,
but we're actually getting brain wave measurements
- during the course of this. - Yeah.
[Erik] Maddy, I'm really interested to hear
whether you've noticed anything else unusual
in these brain scan measurements.
[Maddy] Yeah, absolutely.
It gave us some really interesting data
that I'm excited to show you guys.
Here we got Art's baseline
before we went into any homestead.
So, clean, stable activity
that looks entirely typical for a healthy adult brain.
You see these well-organized brain rhythms.
Right.
[Maddy] Okay, guys.
[Travis] Whoa.
[Maddy] This is when Art was starting
to step into the homestead.
[Erik] Huge changes.
- [Travis] Isn't that crazy? - [Erik] Wow.
You're looking at these high amplitudes.
Very, very odd, right?
[Erik] Wow.
So, I'm gonna go ahead and share this next clip with you.
When he entered the homestead,
the EEG shifted into something
we simply don't see in normal physiology
and cannot be explained by conventional neuroscience.
[Travis] Man, look at that.
Yeah, this one, I remember
she said that Art looked calm
- and the scan should read normal at this point. -[Erik] Mm-hmm.
Yes. So, instead of organized rhythms,
there were sudden bursts of anomalous,
high-amplitude activity.
So, the shift from a perfectly normal baseline
to an inexplainable,
system-wide anomaly, right,
suggests that Art's brain--
or the recording system itself--
was being influenced
by an unknown external factor.
- Oh, wow. - [Travis] That's cool.
According to Maddy,
Art should have been having a total meltdown
for his brain scans to look like that.
But he was completely calm the whole time.
Maybe the EEG device was malfunctioning.
Or else it was like something in the homestead
may have hijacked the EEG
and gave us all that crazy data.
[Erik] Wow.
Well, Maddy, I'm especially interested
in your take on the performance of the device itself.
Right.
[Erik] I recall it stopped working when
Art entered the homestead building.
[Maddy] Yeah, absolutely.
What made it so weird is we were probably only about
ten feet away from each other when
the signal completely dropped
and we could not get a read on the cap anymore, right?
'Cause we've got 30 feet of range there.
Have you ever encountered this before,
anywhere else?
Well, it's not something I've ever encountered before.
And that's what makes it so compelling.
It raises the possibility
that the, you know, the homestead,
the environment itself,
is capable of disrupting the EEG.
[Erik] That really makes me want
to show you some things out of Meta-Frame.
I've got a few interesting hits,
you know, from the video processing,
so I'm gonna bring those up.
So, what we're looking at here
is from the cameras on the mesa
looking down on Homestead Two.
Also, getting a good view of the sky.
[Travis] That's a great vantage point.
Just watch what happens.
As I move us through the time,
you can see aircraft in the distance,
you see stars.
There, right there.
So, you see that feature
- right here? -[Kaleb] Yeah. - [Travis] Oh.
[Erik] We've got something happening
in the top portion of the image
while we're doing the activities that are on the ground.
[Kaleb] That's right over Homestead Two.
[Travis] What in the world is that?
That's got to be hundreds of feet in the air.
I'm not sure what this is.
Well...
[Travis] Makes me wonder if we're looking at a UAP.
[Erik] I'm not sure what this is.
[Travis] Makes me wonder if we're looking at a UAP.
I want to take us forward in time.
And again, we're still seeing this... this feature.
- [Travis] Look how it's just sitting there... -[Erik] Mm-hmm.
[Travis]...and it looks very much like a
cylinder with a top on it.
That's... Wow.
- Your drone wasn't up, right? - [Pete] No.
[Erik] Right. This is not a drone, guys.
[Travis] Incredible.
The processed video revealed the strangest-looking UAP
we've ever seen,
hundreds of feet in the air above Homestead Two.
And it appeared to be staying there throughout
our experiment with Art's Navajo ceremony.
So the big questions are:
did the ceremony cause it to appear?
And what the heck was it?
One thing that really stood out is that while
Art was performing his ceremony,
we were seeing heating.
I want to get your eyes on this.
Yeah, so we're just, you know, a few minutes into the ceremony.
And this view is facing the homestead itself.
Okay? It was as if the foliage on the trees, uh,
and that whole surrounding area were getting warmer
during the course of this.
I don't have a good explanation for that.
- Why? - Should have been the opposite.
Should-- It should be the opposite.
[Erik] We have the possibility that we are
dealing with a legitimate UAP in the Meta-Frame record
during Art's ceremony.
Deepening the mystery is the possible connection to
the unexpected heating
of the leaves on the trees around the homestead.
The top-level question is whether
something, uh, that is part of Art's ceremony
could trigger that phenomenon.
This has been one of the most interesting
and disturbing reviews.
[Travis] And it sounds like we've only
- scratched the surface. - [Erik] Yeah.
This behooves us
to come up with more experiments
to figure out what's happening at Homestead Two.
[Erik] Yes.
Maddy, thank you for running through the data.
We will absolutely be in touch soon.
- Perfect. Thanks, guys. - [Travis] Thank you very much.
See you later.
[Maddy] We'll see ya.

[Erik] We still don't have a complete picture
about what's going on at Homestead Two.
Could there be some
as yet unaccounted for influence
that is interfering with the devices
as well as causing sometimes profound experiences
for human beings?
And if so, what are we interacting with,
there at the homestead?
I'd like to know as much as possible about that.
[Travis] Understanding Homestead Two
isn't just about the strange activity we've seen there.
It's about how it all fits into the bigger picture
of what we've been witnessing out here on Skinwalker Ranch.
[Brandon] These ominous, foreboding structures
at Homestead Two continue to hold secrets.
So much of the phenomena that has been reported there
leaves many participants disturbed.
But further investigation can give us answers, and insights,
if we dare.

I think that drill's on something big.
[Thomas] Whoa!
- [Jed] Oh, holy smokes. - [Travis] Shakin' the drill.
Feels like you're hitting metal.
I mean, that could be it.
[Pete] We're getting drones doing circular
patterns all over the triangle.
- Oh, my god. - They're coming down.
[Kaleb] Something's definitely wrong.
[Sam] The interesting things we were seeing
with 750 feet above ground level...
[Travis] There's a big, magnetic anomaly floating up there.
- Wow. - That's crazy.
