In 1965, 12 American military personnel allegedly boarded a UFO and traveled 39 light-years to a planet called Serpo, deep in the Zeta Reticuli star system.
The mission? Project Serpo—a top-secret alien exchange program with an extraterrestrial race known as the Ebens. Only eight returned. Two died. Two stayed behind… and the U.S. government has spent decades burying the truth.
Was Project Serpo real interstellar diplomacy, or the greatest UFO hoax ever told? In this episode, we explore the whistleblower testimonies, leaked documents, and government denials that have made this case one of the most controversial stories in UFO history.
If the story is true, the U.S. didn’t just meet aliens… we lived with them.
