The 'real' secret space program | Reality Check
If you’re ever injured in an accident, you can check out Morgan & Morgan. You can start your claim in just a click without having to leave your couch: “The Lawyer You Choose Matters” https://www.forthepeople.com/RossIn this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Canadian documentary filmmaker Darcy Weir, whose films "Dark Alliance" and "Dark Alliance: The Next Generation" examine the secret space program stories promoted by Corey Goode, David Wilcock and the New Age conference circuit. Weir describes a 2022 deposition in which Goode stated he had never physically been to space, the copyright actions that took his earlier film offline and the 20 and Back, Dark Fleet and med bed accounts that spread through Gaia TV programming.Coulthart and Weir separate that mythology from the documented record of covert space activity, from the Manned Orbiting Laboratory and the X-37B to Gary McKinnon's account of his NASA intrusion, before turning to David Wilcock's final years as a director at Stavatti Aerospace and a company statement, read on air, about an insider's "space fighter" drawing that turned out to be a canceled Navy attack aircraft. The final stretch covers orbital encounters witnessed by NASA astronauts and recorded by military satellites, including the Skylab 3 object, the Air Force Fast Walker database, DSP Flight 7 and STS-80 imagery now listed as unidentified in the government's Pursue release.🔺 Secret Space UFOs: Fast Walkers & Rise of the TR3BMilitary secrecy, covert aerospace programs, and the biggest cover-up questions you never thought to ask.▶️ Fast Walkers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIol5hApCfw&rco=1▶️ Rise of the TR3B: https://youtu.be/iAW7N5Q7vv4?si=vx4JHpXz6uWHIUkpOver a 13-year career, Weir has produced over 20 independent documentary productions, including 18 feature-length documentaries and two specialized TV docuseries. While his work is widely accessible to mainstream audiences via major streaming giants, including Amazon Prime and Apple TV, he is also dedicated to releasing high-quality investigations directly to the public.🌍 Puerto Rico's UAPThe 2013 Aguadilla Homeland Security incident is the most analyzed UAP footage ever captured.

You can start your claim in just a click without having to leave your couch: https://www.forthepeople.com/RossRoss Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.In this week's episode of "Reality Check," Coulthart tackles questions about why he believes "catastrophic disclosure" may be inevitable, the science behind the wormholes in “Interstellar" following newly declassified Pentagon documents and the U.S. Space Force's surprise announcement that it deployed weapons to space. He also shares an Australian soldier's previously unreported UAP sighting from Afghanistan and dives into meditation, near-death experiences and consciousness research. Ross is also joined by a listener, who provides a deep dive into Steven Spielberg's father and uncle, who allegedly worked at Wright Field during the Roswell wreckage recovery and raises the question of whether Spielberg's films are a form of soft disclosure.Preparing for war in space: inside a Space Force base | Reality Check with Ross Coulthart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dcigf4t3I3E#SpaceForce #UAP #disclosure CREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Will Tomasi, Christine JenkinsonResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

The case for UAP science | Reality Check
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with professor Matthew Szydagis, an astroparticle physicist at the University at Albany SUNY, who was recently appointed to the UAP Science Advisory Council for the White House and federal agencies. Szydagis describes what the council can and cannot do without security clearances, including the more than 50 declassification requests its members have already filed and names the Varginha UFO case as the one he most wants disclosed.He walks Coulthart through the energy a Tic Tac maneuver would demand, and why he treats the claim that interstellar distances are too great as a misreading of relativity rather than a limit on visitation. He also gives a detailed account of his ongoing testing of one of the Art's Parts samples entrusted to him by Tom DeLonge and Hal Puthoff, including the millimeter-scale holes that point toward a human origin. The harassment that followed came not from debunkers but from people who want the sample to be alien, and he says it has been worse than anything skeptics have sent him. #UAP #science #declassification CREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Kanyon LyonsOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Ross Coulthart Q&A: Coulthart: New whistleblower rules are 'not transparency'
Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.In this week's episode, Coulthart tackles questions about why there is still no official government platform for ordinary Americans to report UAP sightings, whether DMT could ever be used as a legitimate research tool at Skinwalker Ranch, and the ongoing speculation around a major UAP-related event in 2027. He also breaks down the "zoo hypothesis" and whether non-human intelligence is deliberately avoiding contact and international guidelines for how humanity should respond if a genuine ET signal is ever confirmed.Watch Meagan's show Unreported here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6PrA6lo8rJKtTsTq9eAtpNdZzuyST-R-CHAPTER SUMMARY:0:00 Intro0:49 UAP disclosure rules1:21 DoW responds to Reality Check7:33 Discrepancies and confusion around guidance11:32 Where can the public report UFO sightings?19:23 Drug taking and skinwalker experiments21:37 2027 & 2034 speculation24:47 Are NHI trying to conceal their presence?27:42 Does Ross recommend trying to make contact with NHI?33:28 Will there be a tridactyl follow-up?39:27 What's behind Ross?41:06 Final thoughtsCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Will Tomasi, Christine JenkinsonResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony Diasio

Jacques Vallée's final report | Reality Check
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Dr. Jacques Vallée, the astrophysicist, computer scientist and venture capitalist whose seven-volume "Forbidden Science" diaries have shaped UAP research for six decades. They discuss the final volume, "Forbidden Science 7." Vallée describes the data warehouse of some 260,000 sightings he built for the Bigelow Aerospace project funded by the Defense Intelligence Agency, why the work was cut off after roughly three years before the analysis he designed could run and the fact he has never been debriefed from his clearance.He walks Ross through his correspondence with a master remote viewer he calls "Gilbert," who describes being taken inside a laboratory built into a mountain and brought face to face with a living nonhuman entity that answered in configurations of light. He also tells Ross that he once came face to face with an entity himself. Vallée says a member in good standing of the National Academy of Sciences told him the academy was warned it could lose funding if it moved into the subject, and after sixty years of investigation, he has concluded that nobody is actually in charge of the phenomenon inside the U.S. government.The conversation closes on a 1966 Louisiana case in which a physics professor watched an object radiate energy on the order of a nuclear power station and on the piece of tree bark Vallée has kept ever since, waiting for a way to test it that does not cut into the wood.#ForbiddenScience #BigelowAerospace #NationalAcademyofSciencesCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

Physicist, former NASA researcher takes UAP seriously | Reality Check
Check Out Odoo, The all-in-one platform to manage your business at https://www.odoo.com/r/4gMNIn this episode of "Reality Check," recorded at the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies conference in Toronto, Ross Coulthart sits down with professor Kevin Knuth, the University at Albany SUNY physicist and former NASA Ames researcher. His 2019 peer-reviewed paper in the journal Entropy estimated the 2004 Nimitz Tic-Tac at thousands of G with no sonic boom, no exhaust and no heat signature. Knuth opens with the anomalous experiences that shaped him long before physics, from a childhood intuition on a Wisconsin bench seat to the night he and his toddler son both saw a boy standing at a bedroom gate in their Albany home. The conversation moves through the 1988 Montana cattle mutilations, the Malmstrom missile shutdowns and Knuth's own hypothesis for how a craft warping spacetime could knock out an ICBM's navigation system, and his account that AARO had a copy of his paper two months before Sean Kirkpatrick told the Senate no such peer-reviewed work existed. He describes sonar data from a New Zealand Navy frigate showing an 800-foot object closing 2.5 kilometers in 25 seconds underwater, the UAPx sensor network now deploying radar and RF spectrum analysis in Connecticut, and the limits already placed on the new UAP Science Advisory Council, which has been told it will see only unclassified material. Asked what he wants most, Knuth says he would like to stand inside one of these crafts, and he has spoken with people who say it's possible.#UAP #TicTacUFO #AARO CREDITSHost: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickAssociate Producer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Kanyon LyonsOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.

In this week's episode, Coulthart tackles questions about President Trump's NDA-waiver executive order and why he says it doesn't go far enough to protect whistleblowers.Plus, a report on drone incursions at White Sands Missile Range that Coulthart says is an attempt to muddy the waters on the real lure-and-shoot-down operation, including a new claim that nuclear technology is involved. He also dives into historical contact cases involving so-called "Nordic" humanoid beings. Coulthart reacts to Sandra Bullock's on-record UFO sighting account and delivers a passionate take on why the topic still gets mocked. And an explosive new report states that AARO is requesting private records from a database relating to UAP sightings. Ross confirms its existence and calls it the “most comprehensive” archive possibly in the world.#UAPs #disclosure #AARO CREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickSegment Producer: Will Tomasi, Christine JenkinsonResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.
