Ryan Sprague is an author, podcast and television host, and researcher specializing in unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP). He is the creator of Somewhere in the Skies, a project through which he publishes investigative reporting, analyses, and interviews concerning UFOs/UAP. His work bridges public-facing media and the fringe edges of UAP research, positioning him where narrative meets claims that are often contested. He plays a role as both storyteller and curator, shaping how diverse, sometimes conflicting, accounts get aired and interpreted.

His credibility is intertwined with his ability to present attributed claims, challenge them, and juxtapose them with official statements.

Key episodes in Sprague’s public activities illustrate his approach and the types of claims with which he engages:

• He featured in a segment called A Reality Check on UFOs alongside NewsNation’s Meagan Medick, participating in a mediated setting aimed at evaluating recent UAP reports. In that clip, he appears to balance skepticism and openness, questioning evidence and official narratives at once.

• He reported on or hosted discussion about reactions from figures such as Sean Kirkpatrick, who responded to a presidential UFO announcement. Sprague’s coverage emphasizes how government agencies and scientific specialists interpret declarations from political leaders, and how those interpretations diverge.

• He gave attention to controversial assertions, for instance claims by Dr. Steven Greer that there is a “SECOND UFO buried beneath a SCIF” (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility). This is a claim that remains unverified and disputed among experts. Sprague relays it with clear attribution rather than presenting it as confirmed.

Sprague’s influence depends on how he frames uncertainty: he frequently distinguishes between what is documented, what is reported but unconfirmed, and what is speculative. In doing so, he walks a narrow line—his audience expects transparency, yet many claims he handles tend toward the extraordinary. His role is less about definitive answers and more about collecting, contrasting, and questioning. His engagement with both public media and non-mainstream sources means his work will continue to be scrutinized, especially by those demanding higher evidentiary standards.
