Darcy Weir on why AARO might be trying to debunk Puerto Rico's Aguadilla object

In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with filmmaker Darcy Weir and infrared expert David Falch. Together, they investigate the April 2013 Aguadilla UFO sighting: the object that moved over the airport of Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, then appeared to enter the water in the adjacent ocean, split and keep on moving. In late March, AARO released its findings on Aguadilla, claiming the object was two sky lanterns. It even suggests the object never went into the water, which does not match the opinions of most viewers. Weir and UFO investigator Andy Marcial work together in the new film "Puerto Rico's UAPs" to investigate the 2013 Aguadilla incident and other Puerto Rican anomalous phenomena. #Aguadilla #PuertoRico #AARO David Falch's YouTube channel:    / @davefalch1038   Darcy Weir's YouTube channel:    / @occultjourneys   Bob Thompson and Andy Marcial:    • Hunting UFOs: On the ground at famous sigh...   CREDITS Host: Ross Coulthart Executive Producer: Andy Gipson Editorial Producer: Meagan Ourada Segment Producer: Christine Jenkinson Associate Producer: William Tomasi Editor: Allen Keefner On "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.
