Following revelations in 2017 of a secret government program studying UFOs buried deep within the Pentagon, many scientists, academics, and government officials stopped wondering whether UFOs were real and started asking: "what are they?" This journey led them far beyond machines in the sky, taking them down a rabbit hole of alien encounters, near-death experiences, remote viewing, and other seemingly unrelated paranormal phenomena.

Hosted by Professor Jeffrey J. Kripal, one of the leading scholars of extraordinary human experiences, this docuseries builds upon Rice University's Center for the Impossible, one of the world's largest collections of paranormal research, by inviting everyday individuals, many of whom have never spoken publicly before, to reveal their new and personal encounters with unexplained phenomena.
