The Micah Hanks Program Micah Hanks

In the early 1940s, the world was engulfed in the Second World War. During the height of the battle, a secretive scientific endeavor began to take shape, The Manhattan Project, which would forever alter the course of history. 
During this period, sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena would also begin to rise, with a concerning number occurring around sites related to the American atomic warfare complex. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at what historical research and recent studies have revealed about this period, as well as the potential intentions of the UAP operators, and finally, a series of strange secrets about UAP-related happenings in the American southwest at that time.

In 1996, radio host Art Bell received a mysterious package containing small metallic samples and an incredible story. According to the anonymous author of the enclosed letter, the material fragments had been collected during the recovery of an advanced aerospace vehicle that crashed near Roswell, New Mexico in the summer of 1947.
Recently, the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) conducted a series of tests on the legendary material, whose unique physiochemical properties were claimed to enable "inertial mass reduction" (i.e., levitation or antigravity functionality), potentially due to the bismuth and magnesium layers acting as a terahertz waveguide. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, look at AARO and Oak Ridge National Laboratory's findings, as well as a deep dive into the bizarre story of these alleged Roswell materials.

In the summer of 1995, following a congressional request, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigated documents related to the alleged crash of a "flying disc" near Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF), New Mexico in 1947. The result, which produced no "smoking gun" evidence of the purported crash, did reveal the mysterious destruction of records from the period, raising questions about who, and under what authority, the records might have been destroyed. 
Now, new draft language has revealed a possible effort by present-day U.S. lawmakers to have the GAO conduct a similar audit of the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we examine the situation, and also look at the history of the GAO's involvement with U.S. government investigations into UAP.

As humanity continues its journey forward into the era of artificial intelligence, many leading futurists are looking ahead to what the following decades may hold for us. Some scientists are also questioning what the implications of the current progress with machine intelligence might be in terms of understanding mysteries like unidentified anomalous phenomena. Could AI help us solve the UAP mystery, or might some part of the phenomenon itself be related to AI, representing a kind of "UAP Singularity" hinted at by our own current technological progression?
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we explore how recent advancements with AI relate to the UAP question, including ideas such as whether alien life we may encounter would necessarily be biological, and how the concept of technological singularity could potentially give rise to superintelligences, time travel, and other futuristic concepts that could be related to the UAP mystery.

During the Cold War, sightings of strange "mystery submarines" were reported in various parts of the world, from the coastal waters of Scandinavian countries to the ocean surrounding parts of New Zealand, South American countries, and others. Although fears of Soviet espionage ran high, some of the incidents defied simple explanation, seemingly pointing to other alternatives as to what these mystery "USOs" and their origins may have been. 
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we dive into cases involving mystery submarines and odd sightings of unidentified submersible objects (USOs) from throughout the years, as well as some of the prevalent theories about their origins and possible relationship to the UAP phenomenon.

On June 12, 2024, a concerning situation began to unfold as an official NASA live stream featured audio that appeared to reveal a medical emergency unfolding on board the International Space Station. Although the incident turned out to be a false alarm, it served as a reminder of the dangers astronauts face while in orbit. 
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at several of the most alarming incidents that have occurred in the history of spaceflight, as well as occasional encounters with unidentified objects reported by astronauts during orbital operations.
