  1. Shadows of the UFO Legacy Program

    Shadows of the UFO Legacy Program

    On an April afternoon in 1964, a police officer's observation of an unusual, landed aircraft in New Mexico would become one of ufology's most baffling cold cases. Decades later, two women's unnerving encounter with a strange aircraft over a Texas highway would leave them suffering from health effects that led them to believe they had witnessed a U.S. government test gone awry. But could these two famous UFO cases have more in common than most would ever think?  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, our examination of some of America's most controversial UFO cases leads us to questions about a supposed "UFO legacy program," and what such a program—if it exists—might entail. Could some of history's most well-documented UFO cases point to something the U.S. government knows far more about than it's letting on?   Want to advertise/sponsor The Micah Hanks Program?

    The UAP Trail: Cold Case UFO Files Reopened

    An early morning high-speed police chase involving a UFO... a military helicopter crew's encounter with something from out of this world... these are just a few examples of some of history's best-known and most credible UFO cases, both of which occurred in Ohio during the height of the Cold War. What were the objects these trained professionals observed, and what do their presence in the skies mean for U.S. National Security?  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we cover a recent trip with the documentary team from "Small Town Monsters" into the heart of the Buckeye State in search of answers to the famous 1966 Portage County UFO Chase and the landmark 1973 Coyne UFO Incident. We also examine Cold War U.S. military history from the period, and why these famous Ohio UFO encounters remain some of the country's most compelling cases.

  3. Varginha: The Brazilian Roswell

    Varginha: The Brazilian Roswell

    In January 1996, residents of the quiet Brazilian city of Varginha began reporting something unusual in the skies above their neighborhoods. Witnesses described a low-flying object—long, cylindrical, and trailing smoke—moving erratically over the city before disappearing from view. In the days that followed, the story took on a far stranger dimension, one that would transform a routine sighting into one of the most enduring and controversial UFO cases in modern history. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, following a recent press conference held in Washington, D.C., involving a UAP case with international significance, we examine the famous Brazilian "Varginha Incident" and the reports from local civilians at the time who claimed to have encountered a small, non-human creature.

    Ancient Signals Decoded: Lost Languages, Archaeology, and Alien Contact

    Throughout history, scholars have sought ways to access the "lost knowledge" of the ancient world. In recent years, with the advent of artificial intelligence, major strides have been made toward decoding the mysteries kept within mysterious ancient texts like the famous "Voynich manuscript," which was composed centuries ago in a mysterious language that remains undeciphered. The challenges that such texts present to scholars also raise a question: would we be any more successful in decoding messages sent to Earth from space by intelligent aliens? This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at the efforts by scientists to unlock mysterious ancient texts, as well as the search for evidence of communication from intelligent extraterrestrials, and finally, how the intersection between archaeology and interstellar communication culminates in the debate about possible "Paleo-SETI" and the prospect that Earth may have been visited by extraterrestrial visitors in ancient times.

    Secret Arsenal: Sonic Weapons, Covert Aircraft, and 'Black Budget' Mysteries

    Is the United States in possession of a secretive new "sonic weapon," the existence of which has not yet been officially revealed to the public? This question has arisen recently amid rumors about a mysterious and devastating new U.S. capability, but what does science and available intelligence say about such futuristic warfare technologies?  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we examine the recent sonic weapon claims, along with a look at other purported weapons and other capabilities comprising the alleged "secret arsenal" of the U.S. military. We also take a look further back in time at the beginnings of the world of "Black Projects" in the aftermath of World War II, the acquisition of secret German technologies, and how Cold War secrets and "UFO Mania" have all contributed to the public's ideas about the existence of secretive warfare capabilities.  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting?

    Lost Knowledge and Forgotten Technologies of the Past

    The fabled Library of Alexandria, one of the greatest centers of learning in the ancient world, was home to vast collections of scrolls from across the Mediterranean and beyond. Despite the wonders it contained, by late antiquity, the library's collections had disappeared, leaving questions about the depth of the ancient knowledge it once contained. But could such "lost knowledge" from the ancient past ever be recovered?  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we explore the enigma of lost information from antiquity, as well as several of the most curious surviving ancient technologies that point to the existence of remarkable knowledge that was harnessed in the ancient world. From the famous 'Antikithera Mechanism,' to mysteries that include "Greek Fire," Damascus Steel, Roman Concrete, and the enigmatic "Visby Lenses," we examine echoes of a technological past on Earth that history has largely forgotten... or has it?  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting?
