Summary

On episode 142 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we go back to 1974 in Jacksonville, Florida. Terri Betz, the son of Antoine and Gerri Betz, stumbles upon a strange metal sphere in the woods near their home. Upon bringing it back to their house, it began to exhibit unusual behavior. Soon, the press comes to interview the family and all Hell breaks loose. Within months, the U.S. Navy, Marines, and prominent scientists and UFO researchers flock to Florida to figure out just what exactly these sphere may be. In this audio documentary, we look at the media reports, investigations, and sinister doings that followed before the sphere completely disappeared from public view for nearly fifty years.
