November 03 What's Buried Under Mount Nemrut: Ancient Tomb or Alien Spacecraft?
Ground-penetrating radar found chambers under Mount Nemrut in Turkey that have been sealed for 2,000 years. A well-known Turkish UFO contactee, Yalçin Yalman, claims an ancient craft lies beneath. Chris Lehto connects the archaeology, the Leo and Orion pattern shared with Giza, and the SAR and muon scanning that could finally show what is down there.

October 30 The Viral Yemen UAP Video, Solved by a Fighter Pilot
The Yemen UAP video, where a Hellfire missile hits a glowing object, went viral in September 2025. Using one key piece of targeting data that earlier FLIR videos never had, former F-16 pilot Chris Lehto explains why he is confident the object is a balloon, even though it was not the answer he wanted.

October 27 Air Force Pilot's Breakdown of the Gimbal UAP
Former F-16 pilot Chris Lehto goes through the Navy Gimbal video the way a fighter pilot would. He explains the radar, the targeting pod and the situational awareness display behind the cockpit call that there was a whole fleet of them, and what the aircrew's own words reveal about the object's range and behavior.

October 16 The UFO Control System Is Invisible: Vallée Was Onto Something
Why are UFOs so hard to see with our sensors? Jacques Vallée called the phenomenon a control system. Chris Lehto comes at the same question from biology, pulling in evolutionary biology, biosemiotics and Donald Hoffman, and makes the case that the phenomenon may be the visible leakage of a higher-level control system.

October 13 We've Been Asking the Wrong Question About UFOs
Everyone asks where UFOs come from. Another planet? Another dimension? After 70 years, the people with the most access still can't answer it. Former F-16 instructor Chris Lehto suggests a different question: not where they are from, but what scale they operate at. It is a hypothesis built on the framework from his book Our Fractal Universe, and he is clear about where the evidence stops and the extrapolation begins.
