NASA's Unexplained Files

Astronaut Leroy Chiao’s spacewalk is interrupted by bright lights flying past. A flying saucer photographed from the Apollo, dark shapes caught on camera...the ideas are science fiction, but the incidents are science-fact.

The Viking Lander may have found life on Mars, so why don’t we know about it? What is the most destructive force in the universe? How could a starship be spotted in the aurora borealis, and what are NASA’s mysterious Moon Pigeons?

A chunk of the sun appears to have vanished. An ominous dark craft beneath the Shuttle Endeavour. And Hubble spots thousands of unidentified objects. Are we being watched? Or could we ourselves be aliens from another world?

A distant planet shows evidence of an Earth-like atmosphere, while a mysterious glowing light suggests the impossible -- an atmosphere on the Moon. Have we found evidence of a crashed alien ship on the asteroid belt?

Could spaceships be powered by atomic bombs? Can artificial rings encircle an entire star? Why was Neil Armstrong’s transmission feed cut off when he spotted strange lights on the Moon? And how can lightning talk to itself?

What could make a NASA astronaut report seeing a flying saucer in the skies above a US Air Force test range? How have the swirling gases of Saturn formed a perfect hexagon that has hovered above the planet’s pole for 30 years?
