Kaydra (finally) does an episode entirely dedicated to the lil green guys up above. The U.S. government’s Project Blue Book set out in 1952 to determine if UFOs were a potential threat for the nation's security, and to gain a better scientific understanding of UFOs. But what they found would be so baffling, so impossible to explain… the truth simply couldn’t stay hidden for long.
