But the complete story of what really happened that night, its effect on the Hills, and the findings of investigators has never been told...until now. For the first time, this documentary reveals new information about the lives of the Hills before and after Barney's death in 1969, their status as celebrities, Betty's experiences as a UFO investigator, and more.

Join Kathleen along with Physicist, and Ufologist Stanton T. Friedman, the original civilian investigator of the Roswell Incident, who reviews and refutes the arguments of those who have attacked the Hill case, including the star map Betty Hill saw inside the craft and later recreated.
