The following video clips are excerpted from the new feature-length documentary film Out of the Blue, an in-depth investigation of the UFO phenomenon. Click on title and clip will open in a new window. |

Opening Sequence - Out of the Blue presents unexplained cases from around the world, investigates 50 years of official contradictions and denials, and puts forth possible reasons for secrecy. The film also examines scientific theories regarding interstellar travel and discusses the current movement for official disclosure on the subject of UFOs — a subject that has been considered by most government officials to be unworthy of serious investigation. |

UFOs and the Military - In 1964, former U.S. Air Force Lt. Bob Jacobs was in the 13-69th photo squadron at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. His mission was to film an Atlas Rocket going through all three stages of powered flight. Upon developing the film it was discovered that the camera captured something unexpected. According to Jacobs, when the rocket was traveling between 11,000 and 14,000 miles per hour, a saucer-shaped craft entered the frame. |

Astronaut Gordon Cooper's Sighting - In 1955, while stationed at Edwards Air Force Base, Mercury 7 astronaut Gordon Cooper witnessed an event that has yet to be explained nearly 50 years later. He was supervising the filming of a precision landing facility for F-86 fighter jets. Suddenly, a saucer-like craft flew directly over the cameraman. Three landing gear apparatuses opened, and the object landed on the dry lake bed. |

Science of Interstellar Travel - One of the main arguments used to deny the possibility of interstellar travel is the question of distance. The closest star, Alpha Centauri, is 4.2 light years away. If astronauts traveled to this star at the speed they reached the moon, it would take them roughly 100,000 years. Although at present the solution to interstellar travel may sound like science fiction, a growing number of scientists are exploring radical new theories that may circumvent these obstacles. |

The Disclosure Project - In Washington, D.C., on May 9, 2001, a major press conference was held at the National Press Club, one of the world's premier journalistic organizations, to launch the Disclosure Project campaign. More than 20 military, government and corporate witnesses gave testimony about unambiguous UFO and extraterrestrial events. Many witnesses provided official documentation to support their claims. The goal of the Disclosure Project is to get immunity so that these witnesses can testify freely in open congressional hearings. |
