MGM+ UNVEILS "BEYOND: UFOS AND THE UNKNOWN" OFFICIAL TRAILER AND KEY ART
BEYOND: UFOS AND THE UNKNOWN premieres October 27 at 10pm ET/PT on MGM+
Following revelations in 2017 of a secret government program studying UFOs buried deep within the Pentagon, many scientists, academics, and government officials stopped wondering whether UFOs were real and started asking: "what are they?" This journey led them far beyond machines in the sky, taking them down a rabbit hole of alien encounters, near-death experiences, remote viewing, and other seemingly unrelated paranormal phenomena. Using the most sophisticated techniques and searching for only credible evidence, they discovered frightening, perplexing, and eye-opening realities buried just beneath the surface of everyday life. The answers they brought back promise not only to rewrite our conception of UFOs, but to change everything we thought we knew about human consciousness, the afterlife, and our place in the universe.

Episode Descriptions:
Episode 1: October 27, 2024
Revelations of a secret Pentagon program as well as eyewitness testimony from fighter pilots forces the world to take UFOs seriously for the first time in years. But Congressional hearings and new task forces find more questions than they do answers.

Episode 3: November 10, 2024
Academics and scientists are finally able to study UFOs and alien encounters without risking their careers. Some subjects remain taboo, though - including materials allegedly left by UFOs, and the frightening stories of "experiencers."

A number of mavericks believe that unexplained phenomena like remote viewing and near-death experiences have a strange connection to UFOs - and this connection threatens to change everything we thought we knew about human consciousness.
