"Investigation Alien" lands, pun intended, at a time when the debate into the existence of UFOs (or UAPs as they are now know - Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) has undergone a seismic shift in the court of public opinion. And with 30 years of experience in this area, journalist George Knapp is the man to explain why.
Read on to find out how you can watch "Investigation Alien" from anywhere with a VPN.
'Investigation Alien': Release date, streaming service
"Investigation Alien" premieres on Friday, November 8.
• Global stream — Netflix
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk-free
A key moment in the migration from minority interest to area worthy of genuine investigation was on December 16, 2017 when the New York Times published two videos, termed FLIR and GIMBAL, that featured encounters by U.S. Navy jets with unusually shaped, fast-moving craft.
While not a seal of approval, it marked the moment when the mainstream press opened the door to genuine speculation on footage that would never have previously been revealed by the Pentagon. The Washington Post soon followed with GOFAST - another, very similar encounter. A host of whistleblowers followed.
Since then the entire UFO/UAP industry – and it is an industry with thousands of podcasts, books and documentaries created every year – has been in overdrive wondering what else governments might have hidden.
Along with "non-human intelligence", "biometrics", "debunkers" and more acronyms than it is possible to remember, Knapp puts forth the argument that we are not alone – with some eye-opening French UFO footage that, if genuine, is hard to explain.

How to watch 'Investigation Alien' from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the show on your usual subscription?
You can still watch "Investigation Alien" thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN – as we explain in our Nord VPN review.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Fire up your usual website or streaming service and tune in as if you were back in your home country.
