UFO Report

The Documentary series delivers a collection of video footage and investigative findings into the unknown world. The narrator does a fine job of engaging with the audience and along with his expert guest they try to explain what the viewer is watching. The videos come in from all over the world with a wide range of diversity in sightings. Purely entertaining if you are a believer in whats out there.

Do you believe in UFO's? Hawaiian filmmakers Blake and Brent Cousins each do, and have devoted more than 20 years independently investigating the controversial phenomena.

In the first of five looks at the Cousin's series, "UFO Report", I'll offer my commentary on the final episode of the series' debut season, "UFO Sightings Spike".

We are presented with images of two UFO's, presented by way of home videos and camera stills.

In the first, suburbanites have recorded a series of four lights arranged in a row across the night sky. UFO "experts" who evidently study the field beyond a passing interest weigh in. The consensus is that what we are looking at are drones. Still, none among the observers are satisfied that the sighting could be something other than that familiar to the population at large. Of course, this may always include projects undertaken by earthly governments and/or military organizations.

I found the second recording, while not well captured, to be more interesting. A large object in the shape of a plastic juice jug complete with handle floats motionless in a daylight sky. The image put me in the mind of a scene from a found footage flick or the hovering alien crafts featured in the 2016 movie "Arrival". One among the panel aligns with me that it "looks like a gallon jug of water". Another guy calls it out as a hoax. I'm going to toss in a potential, albeit ultra-elaborate, hologram.

This installment of the series has an eerie music bed playing throughout it's entirety. While certainly effective at establishing the requisite mood, many moments here would have been just as spooky with no instrumental enhancement.

This is freaky stuff to be sure. Many roundly dismiss and deride UFO believers as detached zealots or just plain nuts. I don't. I'm not entirely convinced that these mysterious sightings in the skies, or aliens not of our world, are real, or reasonably explained, or not. I do, however, believe it to be enormously arrogant and naive to maintain that human beings are the only intelligent forms of life in all of our vast and expansive universe.

Can't wait to dive into Season Two. Stay tuned for my next report.

In this intriguing episode from the series "UFO Report", we bear witness to several minutes of early 2020 live stream video following a never identified craft and recorded by a camera aboard the International Space Station. NASA has evidently not commented on the footage, which naturally has led to a great deal of speculation.

Is this a project spawned by the new U.S. Space Force? Some kind of super drone? A huge chunk of space debris? At this point, who knows?

One thing for certain. Those who do ain't tellin'.

My next review takes a look at Season 3 in the series.

These guys know their stuff and are obviously passionate about it. Definitely worth checking out!

In this Season 3 installment, an amateur photographer's Nikon telephoto lens captures something on the surface of the moon. Something striking. Could this actually be a manufactured structure we see inside this crater?

We know that the U.S., Russia and China have all landed robotic and other unmanned craft on the moon, with Americans still the only humans to walk on it's surface. A secret space project of unknown government affiliation is suggested as one theory here. Yet another is the possibility of an interplanetary alien base. There is also an aside reference to the blurry image of an alleged unspecified being reflected in a NASA astronaut's helmet visor, which has commonly been identified as his lunar exploration mission partner.

Still, the apparently credible image presented in this episode of something big and not indigenous lodged within a moon crater has yet to be explained.
