Welcome to part two of the two episodes surrounding Project Blue Book. The is concludes what was started back in November on our series on UFOs or the now preferred term of UAPs which I think having phenomena makes it sound cooler anyway.

There's just so much information on Project Blue Book but I do hope this two-parter g...
