The Pentagon’s secret UFO program—AATIP—wasn’t a myth. It was real, funded, and filled with reports of craft performing impossible feats. This episode explores what AATIP found, why it was hidden, and what its director risked to bring it to light.

Watch next: Whistleblower David Grusch’s stunning testimony before Congress.

While the public debated whether UFOs were real, the U.S. government already knew something was flying in our skies—because they were actively studying it.

In 2007, deep inside the Pentagon, a secret program was launched: AATIP, the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program. Funded with $22 million in black-budget money, its mission was simple: investigate unidentified aerial phenomena—craft that defied known physics.

AATIP was led by Luis Elizondo, a career intelligence officer. He and his team reviewed military encounters like the 2004 Tic Tac incident, the 2015 “Gimbal” UFO, and dozens of cases involving objects performing instant acceleration, hypersonic speeds, and zero propulsion signatures.

AATIP wasn’t chasing lights in the sky—they were analyzing radar data, FLIR footage, and pilot testimony. They consulted aerospace experts and physicists. And what they found raised major concerns:

Some objects appeared to react to pilots’ movements

Others hovered against hurricane-force winds

All of them outperformed U.S. military aircraft—with no visible means of flight

Elizondo grew concerned. Not just about the craft—but about the secrecy. He said reports were ignored, downplayed, or buried. In 2017, frustrated, he resigned—and took his concerns public.

That’s when the public first heard about AATIP. Soon after, the Pentagon confirmed the program existed. And the Navy updated its pilot reporting procedures, acknowledging the encounters were real.

Why was it hidden?
What else is still classified?
And if the military has been studying these craft for over a decade… what have they learned?

Next, we meet the man who shocked Congress when he said: “We’ve recovered craft—and non-human biologics.”
