Lazar alleged he was hired to reverse-engineer extraterrestrial craft powered by anti-matter reactors that generated their own gravity. Knapp also notes attempts to erase Lazar’s background, such as vanished birth and education records, and phone surveillance—adding credibility to Lazar’s claims and prompting a broader investigation.

3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 Bob On The Record Bob On The Record 9/12/89 Lazar describes a reactor that generates its own gravitational field, allowing craft to bend space and time—enabling faster-than-light travel and even time distortion. Lazar explains that secrecy around UFOs may stem from both the government and the visitors themselves, possibly due to humanity’s violent history and immaturity. He says he went public after discovering his personal records were being erased and feared for his safety. Despite some skepticism, he reports that public reaction has been largely supportive.

He also touches on secrecy protocols, lack of personal records after leaving the program, and his decision to go public after suspecting his identity was being erased. Callers ask technical questions about propulsion, materials, and secrecy, which Lazar answers in simple terms where possible. Participants: Bob Lazar, Billy Goodman | 21 | 22 | 23 |
