SBS Viceland’s “UFOs: Investigating the Unknown” glides toward the landing strip this Monday, concluding its first season. If the title of the final episode, “Government Breaks Silence,” is any indication, they’ve kept the most intriguing material under wraps. The episode focuses its attention on the U.S. government’s formerly clandestine Pentagon program devoted to the study of UAPs – Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. Or, as they’re more commonly known, UFOs.
While the program’s existence isn’t exactly breaking news, “Government Breaks Silence” aims to provide new insights into the Pentagon’s research, and maybe a few eyebrow-raising revelations. This installment trains its sights on the cosmos, examining satellite imagery for evidence of extraterrestrial doings. Among the unusual suspects? A potential “alien glacier” spotted from the inky blackness of space.
But “UFOs: Investigating the Unknown” isn’t solely concerned with little green men (or large frozen alien formations). The episode also features some strange happenings closer to our terrestrial home, including “milky seas” and a peculiar lake formation. And for fans of planetary curiosities, the program features a look at Saturn, highlighting a mysterious hexagonal shape.
Whether you’re a dedicated UFO aficionado, a casual skywatcher, or just someone with a healthy skepticism of government pronouncements, “Government Breaks Silence” looks to deliver a thought-provoking end to the series. Find out on SBS Viceland (and SBS on Demand) this Monday, April 28th at 8:30 PM. Let’s see if the truth really is out there.
