0:05The program revisits the January 2008 Stephenville sightings through accounts of strange lights over Texas.
6:12Geophysicist Justin Revenaugh explains magnetic north's movement and discusses the risks posed by solar storms.
9:18The investigation turns to the Stronsay Beast, a carcass discovered on a Scottish beach in 1808.
18:48Gordon Holmes returns to Loch Ness and recounts filming an unidentified swimming creature in 2007.
22:49A sonar contact near shoals of fish prompts an underwater investigation on Loch Ness.

Pilot Steve Allen and other Stephenville witnesses remember enormous, silent lights over Texas. Before HISTORY's most-watched new upload is over, the search has traveled through shifting magnetic north, a Scottish beach and the murky waters of Loch Ness.

"Collective UFO Sighting is Undeniable Proof! | In Search Of" reached about 158,000 views. Despite that emphatic title, this is a compilation of investigations and eyewitness accounts, not an announcement establishing extraterrestrial visitors. Hosted by Zachary Quinto, it revisits the Stephenville sightings of 2008 and follows Gordon Holmes back to the loch where he filmed an unidentified swimming shape.

Viewers bring their own questions to the search. Some ask when the material originally aired; others want to know where the camera evidence is. A few recognize Quinto from his acting roles, with his Heroes character Sylar getting a particularly economical mention.

HISTORY posted fifteen uploads across the week. Ancient Aliens supplied both "Earth's Alien Origins *Marathon* | Ancient Aliens" and a full episode exploring stories of beings teaching early civilizations. The latter is now gathering daily views almost as quickly as the In Search Of compilation, while a Nazca geoglyphs investigation is also gaining momentum.

There was something more earthbound, too: Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz inspecting a North Carolina warehouse in American Pickers, where plentiful stock meets ambitious asking prices.

The channel collected roughly 19 million views over the week, with subscribers unchanged. Daily viewing is a little below its usual level. Among nearby television channels, BBC is running above its normal daily viewing and Dropout below, while HISTORY's busiest current uploads keep returning to unexplained lights and ancient mysteries.
