Mike Bara spent 25 years in aerospace working on Boeing 757, 767, F-35, and classified military programs before co-authoring the New York Times bestseller Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA with Richard C. Hoagland.
A frequent Ancient Aliens contributor and author of seven books on suppressed space discoveries, Bara uses his aerospace engineering background to challenge official narratives about extraterrestrial artifacts and secret technology programs. 
Starting as a Boeing draftsman in 1979, he advanced through experience on compartmentalized black programs, giving him unique insight into defense contracting and classified operations. He connects Roswell, the JFK assassination, and current Congressional UFO hearings, arguing that anti-gravity technology has existed since the 1960s and ancient civilizations left engineering marvels across our solar system.

You wake up floating above your bed. Everything in your room drifts toward the ceiling. Outside, cars lift off highways and trees rip from the ground. According to a leaked government document, this happens on August 12th, 2026 — and NASA has known since 2019.
Project Anchor describes a 7-second gravitational shutdown that would kill 850 million people. The document is a hoax. But here's what isn't: we still don't understand what gravity actually is. Einstein described how it behaves, not what causes it. The graviton has never been detected. And for 70 years, anti-gravity research has been classified at levels above Top Secret.
Scientists who got too close have disappeared. Some came back. Some didn't. What exactly did they find?

Gather round for three campfire stories that cannot be explained.
A corrections officer watches water materialize inside a concrete prison cell with no source. A YouTube channel uploads 72,000 videos in nine months at an impossible rate, then vanishes after pointing to coordinates in the Atlantic Ocean.
Three Royal Navy cadets walk into an English village and find themselves surrounded by rotting oxen, frozen smoke, and watchers behind dark windows. These aren't urban legends or campfire tales passed down through generations.
These are documented events with multiple witnesses—police officers, prison officials, military personnel, and investigators who went on record about what they saw. Water that falls upward. Channels that shouldn't exist. Villages trapped in time.
Each story breaks something fundamental about how we understand reality. The witnesses had everything to lose and nothing to gain.
Yet they couldn't deny what happened.

For centuries, prophets across different lands described the same coming disaster. A German leader would rise with a voice that could move nations.
Ancient Jewish scribes embedded something strange in their text—Hebrew letters that pointed to a specific year: 1946. That October, ten Nazi war criminals stood before the gallows at Nuremberg.
One of them whispered his final words: "Purimfest 1946." The Nazis believed they could manufacture their own destiny through prophecy and occult manipulation.
They edited ancient texts, built an empire on mysticism, and murdered anyone who predicted the wrong future. But there was one prophecy they couldn't control.
The pattern was already written, waiting two thousand years to return.
