UFOs & Aliens: The Search for Truth (1999)

Narrated by Jeri Ryan of Star Trek: Voyager, this video uses stunning visuals and interviews with leading scientists, technologists, and ufologists – including Jill Tarter, who inspired the book and film *Contact* – to explore UFO sightings, alien encounters, and humanity's attempts to communicate with extraterrestrial life. Originally aired on The Learning Channel, the program is divided into three parts: "Making Contact," offering a new perspective on the search for alien life; "Alien Life Forms," examining global claims of close encounters; and "Saucer Tech," exploring speculative technologies associated with UFOs like ion propulsion and gravity manipulation. Extra features include segments on UFOs and the U.S. government, reported real encounters, and aliens in ancient history.
