Buckle up! The team was in hot pursuit in this episode!
They revealed the metal bottles dropped from the helicopter seemed to bounce off the invisible dome.
Cameron in the helicopter mentioned seeing something flying along the tree tops below him near Homestead 2. It looked metallic. Cameron tracked it, to keep from hitting it. Nothing was on Doppler. As Cameron moved to see where it was going, the object went down into the trees and out of sight. Cameron described something cylindrical that seemed to spin. The object looked like what was seen on thermal at an experiment at Homestead 2.
The next day, they shared with the doppler team what data Erik had collected. Doppler had caught several things that were moving around in the air near the triangle. Radar couldn't tell what they were, but that they were moving in the air. Nothing was seen with the naked eye. One radar capture showed something in the air near Homestead 2 that might have been what Cameron and Pete saw from the helicopter.
The team then looked at the camera captures from the helicopter and saw something definitely maneuvering in that area near the homesteady and edge of the bubble.
Erik suggested they do a smoke experiment above the bubble to see where these things are coming from.
Cameron came back a few days later to help with another experiment. Brandon came along. They planned a laser grid experiment with smoke in the triangle area to see what shows up. This was like the Homestead laser/smoke experiments, but in the air above the Triangle.
Special effects experts used a turbo jet navy engine and add smoke oil and would pump a ton of smoke up there. They can look at the lasers, breaks in the light that show something moving through.
Kaleb managed the laser team and Thomas guided the smoke team.
Later that night, they were set to do the testing of the triangle/bubble area. High speed cameras were utilized to capture any subtle difference. Erik set up inside to monitor data. Thermal was also evaluated. The thermal drone was also sent up. Nothing was going to get by them in this most complex experiment yet!
Oddly, they had tested the smoke machine during the daytime, but as they started the experiment, a bunch of malfunctions occurred as they tried to get it up and running.
There were malfunctions in the fuel pump fuse, new battery drained, fuel control for the jet. New parts, new batteries, were all implicated for this experiment. Typically on the ranch, it stopped working. I have to wonder if the sample daytime pumping of smoke allowed any intelligence to know what it was, what it would do, and where to attack the controls.
Let's just say this is a higher dimensional being. If you and I can paint a picture and that is a 2-dimensional expression we have control over, then why wouldn't a higher dimensional being have control over our situation? Just a thought.
They looked at the area with the drone and something pushed the drone and the view jumped at a certain spot. Every attempt to scan the triangle, it did the same thing.
The team turned off the lasers and decided to send Cameron up in the helicopter for that part of the experiment. Pete in the helicopter shot a beam down to a spot in the triangle where the "blob" had been seen. Pete and Cameron saw something move below them. On FLIR something was caught near the helicopter. They captured the object near the helicopter.
The guys in the helicopter were seeing a light chasing the drone. It was in front of the drone and then behind the drone. No one on the ground was seeing it. Infrared showed the thing near the drone. Then, something pushed the drone. While driving the drone, at the same point, it keeps getting pushed back about 50 feet as it reaches the center of the drone. Something kept following the helicopter. They decided to bring the helicopter down. Brandon called Cameron and told him to land. Brandon worried if the thing in the air could control the drone, having the helicopter in the air was dangerous.
The team reviewed the experiment in Brandon's high rise office in Salt Lake City. David Mason was brought on video so they could talk with him about the recent experiment.
They reviewed the footage that showed the UAP moving toward the drone, and as the UAP disappears, it seems to forcefully push the drone away. The UAP appeared at first to be cloud-like, then formed into something solid looking, and then disappeared. It originated inside the bubble barrier.
Footage looking at the helicopter and the UAP showed something cylindrical, reminding me of the Tic Tac UAP from military footage. It appeared to move in an impossible speed.
Travis believes that the UAP in doppler and this UAP might be emerging from within the bubble.
The team decides they must pursue this avenue in future experiiments. The preview of the next episode is quite exciting!
My impressions: The visual captures of the UAP are so odd. There are really two possibilities:
One possibility, there is an intelligent-guided vehicle that does not want experiments done, will shut down equipment, and deflect their data-gathering tools.
Another possibility is that it appears intelligent guided, but it's actually a natural but unique phenomenon that builds up energy and forms into something that can be visualized, as it is reacting to electronics. This would be like how magnets draw in metals, but we don't quite understand the nature of how it is done. Such a force could also cause issues with electronics. It would be like having a whirlpool in the air that affects all sorts of natural and electronic forces, some new aspect of nature, like electromagnetism, that we have yet to define and monitor.
Note: I will interject that I don't watch Behind the Gates episodes (yawn), but I miss "Beyond the Skinwalker Ranch" so so so much! At times, I really liked it better than the original show. There were so many places I wanted them to study, like Bridgewater Triangle, and others.
I am in complete agreement with the team Brandon has assembled. They have matured into their responsibilities and the team truly invites comments, shifts in focus, new experiments, and the like, giving credence to each contributor's input.
