![]() It also takes an often unseen look at what was known as Project Blue Book, and presents it as the realistic five person team led by J. Where other networks and series are quick to point out the same instances and agencies again and again (Area 51, Roswell, Rendlesham Forest, The Majestic 12, etc) in a conspiratorial nature, the new Nat Geo series shines lights on mass sightings that are largely unheard of or forgotten outside deeply rooted UFO fan communities to say “this is why we need a fully transparent government investigation.” ![]() ![]() Using the template from today, the series points out different sightings and incidents throughout the last 60ish years and points out the parallels from then to now, and the lack of Government oversight investigating the occurrences, even when other international agencies are taking them very seriously. In fact, the docuseries makes it a point numerous times throughout to emphasize the stigma of the term “UFO” and now, “UAP.” It all begins with a relatively recent New York Times article and the bombshell reveal that there had been a small government group tasked with investigating such incidents and sightings, and whether or not they can be considered threats to National security or the safety of the airspace. Instead, what viewers will find is a carefully crafted historical arc surrounding the investigation (or rather, lack thereof) of unidentified aerial phenomena and unidentified flying objects. Let me tell you right off the bat, if you’re seeing that title and think this is going to be something akin to what you might see on certain cable networks that will try to convince you with 1000% certainty that everything is alien in origin, this is not that show. As a frequent viewer of shows and series dealing with various theories in the realm of alien life and UFOs, it comes as no surprise to me that I was handed the new series from National Geographic, UFOs: Investigating the Unknown, for review.
