INVESTIGATING THE MYSTERY
What’s the truth behind Skinwalker Ranch? Could the story of the mysterious streak of lights and noises in the dark be a reality, or is it yet another petrifying story to scare you in the dark? Are Aliens camping out in Skinwalker Ranch? Let’s rewind and take a look at evidence that dates back all the way from the 1980s and truly discover the truths of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO), and Skinwalkers. Through conspiracy theories, historical legends like the skinwalker, and UFO sightings, it can be argued that extraterrestrial life exists.
One conspiracy theory highlights the dozens of Unidentified Flying Object sightings on Skinwalker Ranch. Author Milburn says, “There was no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as ‘unidentified’ represented technological developments or principles beyond the range of modern scientific knowledge” (Milburn 6). to refute the claim of UFOs. This piece of text refuses to further investigate the situation, showing the possibility of fear from the Air Force. Why wouldn’t he further investigate the cause, if they weren’t scared? While Author O’Brien argues otherwise, they state that “Mutilated cows were literally raining from the sky ....”(O'Brien 1). It would only make sense if something were dropping them. . Although many eyewitnesses have come forward to support the claim, Milburn denies the claim, marking it unsupported with no physical evidence; however O'Brien provides eye witnesses who attests to the sightings.

Conspiracies like shapeshifting entities(a thing with distinct and independent existence) related to the Skinwalker speculated from historical legends like the Pueblo Indians after the multitude of catastrophes that have happened on Skinwalker Ranch, like mutilating cows, and deaths. To support this evidence, De’Argon writes, “The Pueblo and others believed in Skinwalkers. These were powerful supernatural beings that could be seen running through the night and that could transform themselves. Skinwalkers sometimes turned themselves into fiery balls, leaving streaks of color and light behind them (De Argon 11).” This evidence supports the claim by describing the physical appearance of one. The Pueblo had seen Skinwalkers; the way that they described the appearance of the skinwalker and go on later to describe its actions and intentions, says so itself. From many accounts skinwalkers are described as ‘fiery balls’(De Argon 11), with that being said, we can create the claim that skinwalkers are real living, hidden creatures.
It's proclaimed that UFO’s are proven fake by the U.S. Air Force (Milburn 6), what about the Imperial Iranian F-4 fighter jet received a call regarding lights in the sky. After chasing after them with another pilot, he reported he lost signal so then reported back to base (Salisbury22). The second pilot then reported that later on he was chased by two airplane-like objects, and to his surprise a third tagged along (22). They have been described as ‘one solid mass’, later transferring on into a ‘horizontal line’, Capt. Norcock described them as ‘oval, red coloured globes of fire, and disappearing’ (Clarke 2). With another claim made by a newspaper reporter who said “The unknown light of Japan” had been seen by local fishermen; however only in colder times (2). Through considerable evidence, this claim is proven wrong by eye-witnesses, defeating the speculation that UFO’s are just a conspiracy. Although the U.S. Navy claimed it was unreasonable, though given evidence it’s evident that UFO’s are present in today's world, proven not only through studies of effective intelligence but in the sightings through human eyes.
Overall, society has events like the fighter jets, UFOs, and much more that attest to the facts that they are true. A perfect alignment with that is what happened in the case of Author Milburn, where he states it's an unsupported case due to lack of support (Milburn 6). They never tried to find any evidence regarding the situation, rather blew it off and declared it inconsistent. This argument proves the claim that UFO’s and Skinwalkers are signs of extraterrestrial life.
