'Project Blue Book' Season 1 Episode 6 preview: The true story behind 'The Green Fireballs'

The Green Fireballs or the Will o' the Wisps were a matter of great controversy in the '50s and the show follows the authority's reaction to it.

Each episode of History Channel's 'Project Blue Book' is based on one true event, and although fictionalized, these episodes help bring out some of the most controversial affairs in the history of the US Air Force. Starring Aidan Gillen as Dr. J Allen Hynek, Michael Malarkey as Captain Michael Quinn, Laura Mennell as Mimi Hynek, Ksenia Solo as Susie Miller, and Neal McDonough as General James Harding, the show follows Hynek's plight as he is called on board by the US Air Force to look into the reports of the multiple UFO sightings that were being reported across the US in the early 1950s'.
