On episode 72 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan presents an exclusive audio documentary based on a relatively unknown UFO event that occurred in New Zealand in 1959.\xa0

Eileen Moreland went out to milk the cows one morning in the South Island town of Blenheim.\xa0She returned home about eighty minutes later with an extraordinary story. "You may think I am mad,\u201d she told police, \u201cbut I saw a flying saucer." After reporting the incident to the police, the local Air Force Base got involved and began to privately investigate the report. What they uncovered, and the events that followed, would both haunt the Air Force investigators and the Moreland family for many years to come.

This is the incredible story; "Finding Mrs. Moreland: How One Woman's UFO Claim Exposed Paranoia and Fear in 1950s New Zealand."\xa0Set to the backdrop of the Cold War, this little known UFO event was covered in great detail by a New Zealand journalist named Charlie Gates. In association with Gates and the news site,\xa0Stuff Limited, this audio documentary consists of Gates' massive article in its entirety. To read an interactive version of the article, CLICK HERE.

Special thanks to the voiceover talents of Jim Rees, Megan Mazzoccone, and Steve Mazzoccone.
