In the early morning hours of October 24, 1968, witnesses at Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, which included security personnel at the installation’s intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launch complex, maintenance staff, the crew aboard an airborne B-52H, all participated in one of the most significant UFO incidents ever to have occurred at high-security United States military base. 

This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we take a deep dive into the Minot Air Force Base UFO incident, one of the most significant UAP cases associated with U.S. strategic nuclear weapons facilities, as well as what its implications are, and why it remains influential even today as lawmakers in Washington continue the battle for UAP transparency.
