In April 2019, Politico’s Bryan Bender revealed that the U.S. Navy would be implementing a new policy that would allow its personnel to report UFO sightings. Is the U.S. government on the verge of admitting UFOs are real? For the past year, HISTORY Channel’s cameras have been following Luis Elizondo, the man who ran the Pentagon’s secret UFO unit. A team led by documentary filmmaker Anthony Lappé has had exclusive access to the former counter-intelligence officer and a small group of fellow former government insiders from To the Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences. In their blockbuster new docu-series Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation, Elizondo and his partners interview new military witnesses who came face-to-face with UFOs and work behind the scenes to get the U.S. government to address what they see as a national security threat. Little did the producers of the show know the series would culminate with Elizondo’s efforts paying off with the Navy’s new policy. Hear from guests who have had a front row seat to this incredible year in UFO history. They will share the behind-the-scenes tale of how the UNIDENTIFIED series was made, the latest on the UFO issue in the halls of power in DC, and what the future might hold for the U.S. government and UFOs.
