UFO Hunters: Reverse Engineering - [DVD]

The serious consideration of UFO phenomena is too often clouded by the desire to believe, the overriding wish that there really is alien life and it has visited us. But in this exciting, all-new series from THE HISTORY CHANNEL(r), the UFO HUNTERS are unafraid of the possibility of alien life but unwilling to settle for hope, hoax and hunch. In every episode an authoritative team of experts from UFO Magazine and the scientific community go onsite to reconsider history's most significant UFO events, applying a fresh, empirical eye and drawing definitive conclusions about the phenomena. Whether you're talking about spy planes or video games, reverse engineering is a vital step in "keeping up with the Joneses." When the Joneses come from distant planets, cracking their technology could make the critical difference between peaceable intergalactic relations and global submission (plus, talk about an edge over Earthly foes!). The HUNTERS are on the search to determine if the US military derived advanced technologies, including stealth technology, from downed UFOs. Could we be competing with extraterrestrial beings using their own downed craft as the genesis for advances in modern technology? Our team investigates the possibility that the technology leading to fiber optics, night vision and the microchip, just to name a few, were derived from wreckage obtained from Roswell and other UFO crash sites.
