Reality Check: Secret Soviet UFOs | KGB swarms suburban house in UFO hunt

The UFO story is not just an American one. As a new era of drone war rages in Eastern Europe, strange sightings in the skies invite questions about an overlooked Cold War mystery in the same region. Archive records beg an urgent question: why did the Soviets seriously investigate an alleged crashed UFO behind the Iron Curtain, and why can't anyone close the case today? NewsNation takes you on the ground to Estonia with the scientists pushing for answers, and the man who claims to have a piece of the mysterious "Object M." Features new interviews between Ross Coulthart and Dennis Asberg, Dr. Beatriz Villarroel, and Mart Sander.
