LatestSince the 1960s, thousands of UFO landings, flyovers and collisions have left scientific evidence behind for study. These events have become known in the field of UFOlogy as the "trace cases." There are over 3,000 documented UFO physical trace cases and they have occurred in over 90 countries around the world. From impressions in the dirt, burned or broken vegetation and trees to scientific abnormalities that have yet to be explained, trace cases offer up some of the most convincing evidence of the UFO reality.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This series rode the wave of post-9/11 institutional paranoia, when Americans suddenly found government conspiracy theories weirdly comforting rather than fringe. History Channel knew exactly what it was doing.
Several episodes feature 'expert' commentators who later appeared in Ancient Aliens, creating a shared universe of questionable scholarship that scholars call the 'History Channel Cinematic Conspiracy Universe.'
