Episode 234
Published 1 week ago
Description
This episode investigates the November 1986 Japan Airlines Flight 1628 incident over northern Alaska, where a freighter crew reported three lights—including a dark ‘mothership’—while FAA and Air Force radar logged intermittent returns. We examine pilot testimony, the available radar data, possible atmospheric and celestial explanations, and the limited government responses that keep the case open for debate.
