KGB swarms suburban house in UFO hunt | Reality Check: Secret Soviet UFOs
Reality Check with Ross CoulthartShow Notes
The UFO story is not just an American one. As a new era of drone war rages in Eastern Europe, strange sightings in the skies invite questions about an overlooked Cold War mystery in the same region. Archive records beg an urgent question: why did the Soviets seriously investigate an alleged crashed UFO behind the Iron Curtain, and why can't anyone close the case today? NewsNation takes you on the ground to Estonia with the scientists pushing for answers, and the man who claims to have a piece of the mysterious "Object M." Features new interviews between Ross Coulthart and Dennis Asberg, Dr. Beatriz Villarroel, and Mart Sander.

More from Reality Check with Ross Coulthart
The White House on Friday released the latest tranche of declassified UFO files that includes information about recent incursions over U.S. military sites. Some of the documents date back to the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, but perhaps the most intriguing records on “unidentified anomalous phenomena” are from this year. They include three separate reports describing what the FBI and the Pentagon call a black, triangle-shaped craft flying over sensitive military sites. The object reportedly flew at an elevation of 200 to 300 feet and measured about 9-feet long, with a wingspan of approximately 13 feet.
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Mike Morgan, a former senior investigating officer with 30 years in British policing and the author of "The Silence is Deafening," and Liberty, a plane spotter who lives near Royal Air Force Lakenheath. The conversation centers on the objects reported over Lakenheath, Mildenhall, Feltwell and Fairford in November 2024, which officials called drones without naming an operator or releasing a single photograph.

In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Jeffrey J. Kripal, the J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University and host of the new six-part series "Archive X: Unexplained Phenomena." Kripal oversees Rice's Center for the Impossible, formerly the Archives of the Impossible, a collection that holds the papers of John Mack and Jacques Vallée among more than a million items on telepathy, near-death experience, abduction and precognition.
Ross Coulthart and Meagan Medick open with a “Reality Check” exclusive: NewsNation’s Nancy Loo sat down with NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, who said the agency has already released all of its UAP data. Coulthart says that isn’t the case and he walks through the Apollo, Gemini and Skylab records he says are still unreleased.
