For decades, the U.S. government has largely ignored reports of mysterious flying objects stalking our military. But now, after years of speculation, government insider Rich Emberlin, a 30-year law enforcement veteran who has worked with the CIA and FBI, is finally investigating the truth. Emberlin believes we are in the midst of a massive military cover-up and aliens are a threat to our planet, and our very existence may be in jeopardy. Emberlin joins forces with investigative reporter Melissa Tittl and UFO field investigator Roderick Martin to help uncover what the military is hiding. They will travel across the country to meet face-to-face with former members of the military, including former Air Force security officer Mario Woods who travels back to Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota for the first time in 43 years. The team also interviews the grandsons of Captain Thomas F. Mantell, a Kentucky Air National Guard pilot who died when his fighter plane crashed after being sent in pursuit of a UFO.
