THINK ABOUTIT SUMMARY:
Project Crystal Knight: The 13-Year Serpo Exchange Program
Project/Group Name: Project Crystal Knight (also known as the Serpo Exchange Program)
Mission: To conduct a formalized exchange of diplomatic ambassadors between the U.S. Government and a species from the Zeta Reticuli star system. Twelve American military personnel were sent to the planet Serpo, while NHI ambassadors (Ebens) remained on Earth.
Date Started: 1954 (Initial planning); 1965 (Successful deployment). Ended: 1978 (Return of the survivors).
Who or Whom Started It: Initiated via contact with a survivor of the 1947 New Mexico crashes; managed by a specialized task force within the U.S. intelligence community.
Part of what Government Agency: Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and the Air Force.
Location: Earth (various secure sites) and the planet Serpo (Zeta Reticuli system).
Special Features/Characteristics:
-
The Eben Ambassador: A surviving entity from a crash site was allowed to communicate with its home world, facilitating the logistics of the trade.
-
Interstellar Exchange: 12 specialists (10 men, 2 women) were selected for the 13-year mission; only 8 eventually returned to Earth.
-
Failed Attempt (1964): An initial meeting/exchange attempt was reportedly aborted before the successful 1965 launch.
Summary/Description: Project Crystal Knight is the alleged code name for the ultimate “ambassador program.” Following the recovery of NHI technology and survivors in New Mexico, the U.S. established a dialogue that led to a human expedition to an alien homeworld. The participants were reportedly scrubbed of their identities and trained for years to endure the biological and psychological stresses of life on a planet with two suns and higher gravity.

Other Details: While the “Serpo” narrative is the primary source for the name “Crystal Knight,” it corroborates with other leaks regarding “Project Gleam”—a high-level program dealing with biological entities and technology transfer.
“Twelve people were sent for 13 years to Serpo… the name of this exchange program allegedly was Project Crystal Knight.”
After a survivor was found at the site of a crashed UFO in New Mexico, he was allowed to contact his species, and a program was launched for the exchange of ambassadors: eventually twelve people were sent for 13 years to Serpo, while three “Ebans (Ebens)” (some sources only mention one) stayed on Earth.
The name of this exchange program allegedly was Project Crystal Knight. It ran from 1954 until 1978.
A first attempt to exchange ambassadors failed in 1964. A second attempt in 1965 was successful, and lasted until 1978.
Note that while most sources agree that such a program has indeed existed, it is only in the Serpo material that the name Crystal Knight has been mentioned for this program.
