Detailed Timeline of Main Events
Late 1940s:
Initial period of greater openness within the US military regarding UFOs.
Biggest press conference in US history held at the Pentagon following UFO flyover of Washington D.C.
1944:
Alleged retrieval of the "magenta craft," which was passed from the OSS to the US Air Force. The Vatican was allegedly involved in this retrieval.
Early 1950s (specifically 1952-1953):
Decision made by the CIA to lie to and mislead the public about UFOs.
Decision made by the Defense Department to shut down public discussion of the UFO issue.
Establishment of a "truth embargo" on UAPs.
Washington D.C. flyover event likely occurred around 1952.
1950s - 1960s (and onwards):
US retrieves and attempts to reverse engineer non-human technology, often with involvement from private aerospace contractors.
Executive order, likely signed by President Eisenhower (possibly Truman), mandates keeping UFO information secret, even from Congress.
Foreign Material Exploitation Program (FMEP), run by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), is allegedly used as a cover for non-human craft retrieval.
Australians, seconded to British or American units, allegedly participate in retrieval operations in Europe and potentially other locations, signing NDAs not to reveal this to their own government.
British archives allegedly destroy UFO files from the 1940s and 1950s in five-year increments.
1960s:
Australia glibly agrees to integrate into the US military alliance, including hosting critical communication and surveillance bases without significant public debate.
1966:
Harold E. Holt Naval Communication Station at Northwest Cape, WA is first built by the US and primarily operated by them until 1991.
Westall Incident in Australia: Mass UFO sighting over a school. Australian military official and civilian allegedly threaten science teacher Andrew Greenwood to keep silent. A secret investigation report is allegedly written but later destroyed by the investigator's family.
1970s (under Nixon administration):
President Nixon allegedly mandates the transfer of advanced technology (possibly related to UFOs) from the Department of Energy to the control of certain private aerospace companies, potentially to circumvent FOI and congressional oversight.
1980s (late):
People in northwestern and southern Australia begin reporting UAP sightings, potentially linked to the relocation of advanced technology operations from the US to Australia.
Whistleblowers like Bob Lazar come forward.
1991:
Keating Labor government demands that the Harold E. Holt Naval Communication Station at Northwest Cape be put under Australian control, although it largely remains an American base.
Aftermath of the first Gulf War: Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS) allegedly performs plausibly deniable favors for the British and Americans to help them win contracts in Kuwait, with the work kept secret from Australian spy bosses.
1994:
Ross Coulthart works on a Four Corners exposé revealing plausibly deniable favors done by Australian defense and intelligence agencies, kept secret from their own bosses.
Early 2000s:
US Marine Michael Herrera is deployed in Java during a relief operation and allegedly encounters American black paramilitary clad soldiers operating a seemingly US reverse-engineered craft.
Recent Years:
Allegations of covert US retrieval operations on Australian soil without the knowledge of the Australian government. Example: A farmer in Queensland reports seeing American left-hand drive vehicles exiting a large American plane and searching the outback.
Reports of non-human technology retrievals allegedly happening in Antarctica, possibly at a secret American base revealed through exercise tracking apps used by Joint Special Operations operatives.
Skywatcher, a private company funded by Silicon Valley, is created to gather proof of UFOs and unidentified aircraft using electromechanical signaling. Skywatcher allegedly uncovers evidence that US government officials acknowledge is very probably non-human. Remote sensor interference is allegedly experienced by Skywatcher, aligning with claims in "Slide 9" about the phenomenon's ability to manipulate perception and sensor systems.
Present (as described in the sources):
Ongoing "truth embargo" on UAPs.
Lack of official Australian government knowledge of US retrieval and reverse engineering programs involving non-human technology.
Allegations of agreements between sections of the US government (particularly the US Air Force) and non-human intelligence, potentially unilaterally and without congressional approval. Some hints suggest the non-human intelligence might not be friendly.
Mixed messaging from the US regarding reverse engineering progress; some believe functional craft exist, while others like Eric Davis suggest only materials science breakthroughs have been achieved. Nat Kobitz, former US Navy R&D head, confided being read into the legacy retrieval program and saw seemingly non-human material.
Collaboration between select individuals in US intelligence and defense and a few Australians, who are discreetly briefed on the phenomenon.
The CIA Office of Global Access allegedly coordinates the cover-up of UFOs and has intervened to stop the transfer of recovered craft from private aerospace companies to others (e.g., from Lockheed Martin to Bigelow Aerospace).
A "cabal" of private companies and individuals allegedly regards itself above government accountability and controls advanced technology derived from non-human sources.
Ongoing Cold War between the US, China, and Russia over control of highly advanced technologies.
Concerns that the excessive secrecy is hindering US breakthroughs in understanding and utilizing the technology, while China and Russia are potentially gaining an advantage.
Hints from the Trump administration about the existence of advanced technologies and potential disclosure efforts, including the announcement of the "Golden Dome" system.
Discussion and speculation about a potential "event" or significant change happening in 2027.
Prominent figures like David Grush, Eric Davis, and Hal Puthoff are still allegedly working for the "legacy program," although their public statements are sometimes viewed with suspicion or as potential disinformation by whistleblowers like Michael Herrera.
Growing evidence suggesting that human consciousness may be non-local and that the phenomenon is appealing directly to individuals through "downloads" and consciousness interaction, potentially bypassing governments.
The phenomenon is described as potentially interdimensional or intraterrestrial, conducting intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), and possibly malevolent.
The US has allegedly acted offensively against non-human intelligence using high-power microwave pulse weapons, interpreted as a form of first contact based on war.
Mainstream media is largely playing catch-up and has failed to adequately cover the UAP issue, in contrast to non-mainstream media outlets and social media.
A reckoning is predicted in 10-15 years when the truth becomes public, possibly forced by non-human intelligence manifestation.
The fundamental questions raised by the UAP topic, such as our identity, origin, and place in the universe, are seen as potentially leading to a new understanding of what it means to be human.
Cast of Characters
Ross Coulthart: Australian investigative journalist and author. A prominent figure in the UAP disclosure movement. He expresses frustration at the lack of transparency from the US government towards its allies like Australia and has sources within defense, intelligence, and private aerospace. He is critical of mainstream media's handling of the UAP topic.
Michael Herrera: A former US Marine and whistleblower. Claims to have witnessed a US reverse-engineered craft operated by black paramilitary soldiers in Java in the early 2000s. He is described as authentic and faces backlash for his statements. He claims Eric Davis and Hal Puthoff are still working for the "legacy program."
Eric Davis: American physicist working in aerospace and involved in UFO programs. Mentioned as stating that the US may not have fully cracked reverse engineering. Michael Herrera claims he and Hal Puthoff are still 100% working for the legacy program.
Hal Puthoff: Mentioned alongside Eric Davis as allegedly still working 100% for the "legacy program," according to Michael Herrera. (Context implies he is a figure involved in ufology and possibly related to advanced technology).
Nat Kobitz: Former US Navy head of Research and Development. Conceded to Ross Coulthart before his death that he was read into the legacy retrieval and reverse engineering program and was shown what appeared to be a bulkhead from a crashed non-human craft.
Steven Basset: A commentator who uses the term "truth embargo" to describe the suppression of public discussion on UAPs.
David Grush: Whistleblower who has spoken about alleged US government programs involving the retrieval of non-human craft. Allegedly talked about agreements with non-human intelligence when pressed by Ross Coulthart, but wouldn't go into detail. Also mentioned in connection with the alleged 1944 retrieval of the magenta craft and the Vatican's alleged involvement. Stated he went public because of a cold war between the US, China, and Russia over advanced technologies and concerns the US was falling behind.
Reese Dalton Morgan (aka the UF Aussie): The host of the podcast where the first source excerpt comes from. Interviews Ross Coulthart. Described as a valuable long-form podcast interviewer.

Keith Bastfield: Suggested that the Westall incident might have been a stray balloon from an American operation, a suggestion Ross Coulthart strongly disagrees with.
Diana Pasulka: Author of the book "Encounters," in which the characters "the Greyman" and "Tyler D" are mentioned, with a suggested similarity in their work.
The Greyman: An Australian pseudonym in Diana Pasulka's book "Encounters," whose work is suggested to be similar to "Tyler D." Ross Coulthart knows the identity but cannot reveal it publicly.
Tyler D: A character mentioned in Diana Pasulka's book "Encounters," whose work is suggested to be similar to "the Greyman."
Bob Fish: Mentioned in Ross Coulthart's book "In Plain Sight" as having spoken about the electromagnetic signal associated with UFOs and their potential tracking from the poles.
Linda Moulton Howe: Investigating journalist who ran a story interviewing pilots who claimed to have flown into an American base in Antarctica and reported on no-fly zones there.
James Fowler: Part of Skywatcher with Jake Barber. Interviewed by Jesse Michaels and described amazing results, including US government officials acknowledging that what Skywatcher showed them was very probably non-human. Also described the phenomenon remotely shutting down their sensor systems.
Jake Barber: Interviewed in January 2024, described as a former CIA non-official cover intelligence operative operating through Northrop Grumman, involved in retrievals. Part of Skywatcher with James Fowler. Spoken about "summoning" non-human craft and experiencing a feminine energy from NHI.
Jesse Michaels: Interviewed James Fowler of Skywatcher.
Whitley Strieber: Author of "Communion." Commented on Jake Barber's experience, suggesting he might have been unwittingly deceived by the phenomenon and that the positive feelings were a manipulation.
Peter Thiel: From Palantir, a Silicon Valley figure taking a close interest in NHI tech claims, likely due to commercial interests.
Peter Higgs: (Likely a transcription error or misunderstanding, possibly referring to Pete Hexiff).
Dan Barrows: Mentioned in the context of social media exposing information to younger generations that authorities want concealed.
