SEASON ONE: UFO Investigation Series Project BLUE BOOK With Aidan Gillen as Astrophysicist Dr. Hynek

Aidan Gillen.

UFOs? The U.S. Air Force investigated thousands of cases in the 1950s and 1960s through a top secret division called Project Blue Book. Each episode of the 10-episode History series from Robert Zemeckis and his creative team will pull from actual files and blend UFO theories with historical events that were researched by a team led by college professor Dr. J. Allen Hynek.

Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones) is astrophysicist Dr. Hynek and Laurel Mennell (Alphas, Loudermilk) is his wife Mimi Hynek.
