Summary

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?
