1
00:00:00,248 --> 00:00:02,800
Unexplained sightings.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:07,258
The first responders on
the scene reported a UFO.

3
00:00:07,868 --> 00:00:10,135
Miraculous appearances.

4
00:00:10,151 --> 00:00:13,060
Inside the tilma was the Virgin Mother.

5
00:00:13,506 --> 00:00:16,470
And visions that changed the world.

6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,388
This extraordinary sign from the heavens

7
00:00:19,427 --> 00:00:23,658
becomes one of the crucial
turning points in human history.

8
00:00:24,706 --> 00:00:29,852
Stories of strange encounters accompany
many of history's major events.

9
00:00:30,727 --> 00:00:33,035
Is it merely coincidence?

10
00:00:33,504 --> 00:00:38,125
Or might it be evidence of
extraterrestrial intervention?

11
00:00:38,891 --> 00:00:42,637
It appears that there is
an ongoing plan in place,

12
00:00:42,757 --> 00:00:46,039
a hidden hand in history
that is manipulating events

13
00:00:46,078 --> 00:00:48,088
for a certain given outcome.

14
00:00:48,917 --> 00:00:51,311
Millions of people around the world

15
00:00:51,319 --> 00:00:55,941
believe we have been visited in
the past by extraterrestrial beings.

16
00:00:56,183 --> 00:00:58,420
What if it were true?

17
00:00:59,335 --> 00:01:03,574
Did ancient aliens really
help to shape our history?

18
00:01:03,816 --> 00:01:05,490
And if so,

19
00:01:05,529 --> 00:01:11,715
might mankind's greatest moments have
been influenced by alien encounters?

Japan.

22
00:01:44,508 --> 00:01:47,370
March 11, 2011.

23
00:01:49,317 --> 00:01:54,252
Emanating 43 miles off the eastern
coast of the Oshika Peninsula...

24
00:01:56,802 --> 00:01:59,945
one of the largest earthquakes
in recorded history...

25
00:02:00,065 --> 00:02:02,346
a magnitude 9.0...

26
00:02:02,466 --> 00:02:04,512
shakes the earth.

27
00:02:05,459 --> 00:02:08,415
The massive movement of two tectonic plates

28
00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:11,145
instantly moves the
entire Japanese mainland

29
00:02:11,169 --> 00:02:12,968
some eight feet,

30
00:02:14,414 --> 00:02:16,080
ripping down buildings,

31
00:02:16,112 --> 00:02:17,442
setting fires,

32
00:02:17,562 --> 00:02:19,733
and killing thousands of people.

33
00:02:20,022 --> 00:02:22,502
But the worst is yet to come.

34
00:02:23,041 --> 00:02:27,037
The earthquake also
triggers enormous tsunamis.

35
00:02:27,428 --> 00:02:30,259
Waves as high as 130 feet

36
00:02:30,306 --> 00:02:32,370
begin smashing ashore

37
00:02:32,386 --> 00:02:34,701
with devastating consequences.

38
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,612
One wave in particular

39
00:02:36,625 --> 00:02:39,703
struck the Fukushima Daiichi
power generating plant

40
00:02:39,728 --> 00:02:42,738
and overwhelmed the safety systems,

41
00:02:42,926 --> 00:02:46,117
which caused the plant
to enter a critical phase

42
00:02:46,129 --> 00:02:49,952
and release radioactive material into
the atmosphere and into the water.

43
00:02:51,309 --> 00:02:54,607
With the nuclear power
plant's reactors melting down

44
00:02:55,113 --> 00:02:58,366
and radiation seeping into the atmosphere,

45
00:02:59,668 --> 00:03:02,233
the authorities evacuate the region.

46
00:03:04,197 --> 00:03:07,275
The only people who remain are employees

47
00:03:07,325 --> 00:03:11,548
who struggle for days to prevent a
larger catastrophe from occurring.

48
00:03:12,487 --> 00:03:15,390
But according to eyewitnesses on the scene,

49
00:03:15,446 --> 00:03:18,306
these workers were not alone.

50
00:03:19,714 --> 00:03:21,529
There were UFO sightings

51
00:03:21,540 --> 00:03:25,289
reported in some significant
numbers in that area

52
00:03:25,351 --> 00:03:29,068
in the weeks and the days leading
up to the earthquake and tsunami.

53
00:03:29,305 --> 00:03:32,628
And there were a number of UFO sightings

54
00:03:32,646 --> 00:03:36,345
reported in the immediate
area, uh, directly afterward.

55
00:03:39,742 --> 00:03:42,075
And this suggests the possibility that

56
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:44,640
extraterrestrials were involved

57
00:03:44,678 --> 00:03:47,868
in stabilizing that situation.

58
00:03:47,988 --> 00:03:51,397
Because had that Fukushima
plant melted down,

59
00:03:51,460 --> 00:03:54,319
it would have made a large swath of Asia

60
00:03:54,325 --> 00:03:56,634
uninhabitable for a very long time.

61
00:03:59,136 --> 00:04:00,750
Is it possible

62
00:04:00,870 --> 00:04:05,155
that extraterrestrials
became aware of this meltdown

63
00:04:05,275 --> 00:04:07,157
and they did something

64
00:04:07,226 --> 00:04:10,899
to lessen the impact of this disaster

65
00:04:10,912 --> 00:04:18,301
and ultimately save mankind from what
could have been a much worse cataclysm?

66
00:04:19,158 --> 00:04:23,887
Could extraterrestrials really have
been present at the Fukushima meltdown

67
00:04:24,939 --> 00:04:27,023
and might they have helped to prevent it

68
00:04:27,029 --> 00:04:30,413
from being an even more
catastrophic disaster?

69
00:04:30,983 --> 00:04:32,803
Ancient astronaut theorists

70
00:04:32,828 --> 00:04:37,083
point out that similar accounts
of strange objects seen in the sky

71
00:04:37,376 --> 00:04:40,548
were also reported 25 years earlier

72
00:04:40,668 --> 00:04:45,178
during the meltdown at the Chernobyl
nuclear power plant in Ukraine.

73
00:04:45,779 --> 00:04:49,045
A number of witnesses
reported that there were UFOs

74
00:04:49,057 --> 00:04:51,660
hovering around the power station

75
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:57,141
and that even beams of light
were coming down from these UFOs

76
00:04:57,604 --> 00:05:00,933
and doing something to
the nuclear power plants,

77
00:05:00,951 --> 00:05:06,720
and keeping them from having a much
worse meltdown than they did have.

78
00:05:08,121 --> 00:05:12,726
Some have speculated that the UFOs
that were seen during the crisis

79
00:05:12,738 --> 00:05:15,948
may have been, perhaps, protecting us,

80
00:05:16,467 --> 00:05:20,815
trying to stave off a
horrifying nuclear explosion.

81
00:05:20,935 --> 00:05:24,031
Or if not protecting us, at
least protecting our world.

82
00:05:25,364 --> 00:05:27,284
Was it simply good fortune

83
00:05:27,315 --> 00:05:30,256
that the nuclear accidents
at Fukushima and Chernobyl

84
00:05:30,281 --> 00:05:31,952
weren't far more deadly?

85
00:05:33,472 --> 00:05:37,320
Or is it possible that the
UFOs eyewitnesses spotted

86
00:05:37,357 --> 00:05:40,467
were responsible for
averting these catastrophes

87
00:05:40,492 --> 00:05:43,357
when humans were powerless to do so?

88
00:05:44,934 --> 00:05:49,757
Ancient astronaut theorists believe these
encounters weren't random occurrences,

89
00:05:49,964 --> 00:05:53,142
but part of an extraterrestrial agenda

90
00:05:53,179 --> 00:05:56,990
that has been in place on
Earth for thousands of years.

91
00:05:57,414 --> 00:06:01,256
It appears that there is
an ongoing plan in place,

92
00:06:01,519 --> 00:06:05,047
a hidden hand in history
that is manipulating events

93
00:06:05,085 --> 00:06:08,764
and that we are interacting
with an alien civilization.

94
00:06:09,146 --> 00:06:11,749
And that we are experiencing the fruits

95
00:06:11,869 --> 00:06:13,726
of what they are offering us

96
00:06:13,846 --> 00:06:18,899
because our history is being
intelligently guided and directed

97
00:06:18,968 --> 00:06:21,933
to steer us towards a particular outcome.

98
00:06:22,721 --> 00:06:24,980
But if alleged alien encounters

99
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:28,002
really are evidence that extraterrestrials

100
00:06:28,033 --> 00:06:30,542
are intervening in human affairs,

101
00:06:30,773 --> 00:06:32,450
what is their purpose?

102
00:06:33,483 --> 00:06:37,544
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest the answer can be found

103
00:06:37,664 --> 00:06:43,068
by looking back at the very earliest
alien encounters ever recorded.

104
00:06:44,807 --> 00:06:46,196
Mt. Sinai,

105
00:06:46,603 --> 00:06:49,043
the 15th century, B.C.

106
00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:53,072
According to the Bible's Book of Exodus,

107
00:06:53,192 --> 00:06:55,599
it was on the peak of this holy mountain

108
00:06:55,618 --> 00:06:57,601
that Moses met with God.

109
00:06:59,353 --> 00:07:01,949
But ancient astronaut theorists believe

110
00:07:01,987 --> 00:07:05,364
Moses's encounter may have
been with a different kind

111
00:07:05,365 --> 00:07:07,311
of otherworldly entity.

112
00:07:08,369 --> 00:07:12,261
There's an interesting legend
passed down from temple times itself

113
00:07:12,317 --> 00:07:16,590
that when Moses ascended to
Mt. Sinai to speak with God,

114
00:07:16,659 --> 00:07:19,850
a cloud came down from heaven

115
00:07:20,244 --> 00:07:23,335
and told Moses, "Come into the cloud

116
00:07:23,372 --> 00:07:25,168
to ascend to God."

117
00:07:26,087 --> 00:07:28,559
A door opened in the cloud

118
00:07:28,605 --> 00:07:31,771
and Moses walked in and it
closed behind him and he ascended.

119
00:07:32,372 --> 00:07:37,777
The Lord descends with smoke, fire,
loud noise, trembling and so on.

120
00:07:37,897 --> 00:07:41,099
All religions speak about the same thing.

121
00:07:41,149 --> 00:07:43,221
They use different names

122
00:07:43,239 --> 00:07:44,710
and the stories change,

123
00:07:44,747 --> 00:07:47,193
but the basic stories
are always the same...

124
00:07:47,313 --> 00:07:51,317
somebody descended with
loud noise, smoke, fire.

125
00:07:51,579 --> 00:07:53,738
The humans could not
understand what it was.

126
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:59,267
They misinterpreted and believed
that this was God or the gods.

127
00:07:59,387 --> 00:08:01,551
It's just a misinterpretation.

128
00:08:01,564 --> 00:08:04,479
I am absolutely sure... there's no doubt...

129
00:08:04,542 --> 00:08:07,689
that we were visited by
beings from outer space.

130
00:08:09,453 --> 00:08:12,299
According to ancient astronaut theorists,

131
00:08:12,355 --> 00:08:14,752
such accounts of unearthly encounters

132
00:08:14,808 --> 00:08:17,186
can be found in every major religion,

133
00:08:17,373 --> 00:08:19,463
including Islam,

134
00:08:19,544 --> 00:08:22,998
where the angel Gabriel,
also known as Jibril,

135
00:08:23,023 --> 00:08:25,050
was said to be the intermediary

136
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,764
between the prophet Muhammad

137
00:08:26,827 --> 00:08:29,330
and the Muslim god Allah.

138
00:08:29,849 --> 00:08:34,241
Jibril normally would come
and dispense wisdom to Muhammad

139
00:08:34,341 --> 00:08:37,213
inside this cave that he was dwelling in.

140
00:08:37,457 --> 00:08:39,359
But on two occasions,

141
00:08:39,703 --> 00:08:43,582
Muhammad did not meet
Jibril in the cave in person,

142
00:08:43,702 --> 00:08:45,997
Muhammad went outside the cave,

143
00:08:46,117 --> 00:08:50,927
and it was at this time that something
absolutely fantastic happened.

144
00:08:50,946 --> 00:08:54,424
What did Muhammad see when
he went outside the cave?

145
00:08:54,430 --> 00:08:56,007
The records show

146
00:08:56,420 --> 00:09:00,912
that there was a magnificent
shining object there in front of him.

147
00:09:01,156 --> 00:09:03,934
It was said to have 600 wings,

148
00:09:03,959 --> 00:09:06,649
and it was burning as if it was on fire.

149
00:09:06,962 --> 00:09:09,491
What do we know of in
modern times that could

150
00:09:09,528 --> 00:09:12,281
add up to a sighting
like that? It's obvious.

151
00:09:12,794 --> 00:09:15,403
A craft that would be hovering there

152
00:09:15,428 --> 00:09:18,600
in front of him, giving
off brilliant white light

153
00:09:18,607 --> 00:09:20,784
that he interpreted as fire.

154
00:09:20,809 --> 00:09:25,107
And when he went out and saw
this magnificent shining object,

155
00:09:25,345 --> 00:09:28,273
the same wisdom that he
was getting from Jibril

156
00:09:28,341 --> 00:09:30,000
was imparted to him,

157
00:09:30,050 --> 00:09:33,985
though he could not see any being;
he only could see this object.

158
00:09:34,992 --> 00:09:38,758
Is it possible that many of
the stories of gods and angels

159
00:09:38,789 --> 00:09:42,868
descending from the heavens are
not actually divine encounters,

160
00:09:43,606 --> 00:09:46,378
but extraterrestrial visitations?

161
00:09:47,348 --> 00:09:48,441
And if so,

162
00:09:48,561 --> 00:09:51,315
are they purposely guiding our future?

163
00:09:52,478 --> 00:09:56,650
Ancient astronaut theorists believe
further evidence can be found

164
00:09:57,013 --> 00:10:00,048
by examining a famous vision so important,

165
00:10:00,098 --> 00:10:03,157
it changed the course of human history.

166
00:10:09,039 --> 00:10:10,109
Rome.

167
00:10:10,585 --> 00:10:13,901
October 27, 312 A.D.

168
00:10:15,396 --> 00:10:17,167
Just north of the city,

169
00:10:17,287 --> 00:10:19,119
the emperor Constantine

170
00:10:19,239 --> 00:10:22,091
leads his troops toward the Milvian Bridge

171
00:10:22,211 --> 00:10:26,264
and a decisive battle with
Maxentius to reclaim his throne.

172
00:10:27,372 --> 00:10:32,265
At stake is control over the western
part of the vast Roman Empire.

173
00:10:34,986 --> 00:10:38,258
According to an account
from the historian Eusebius,

174
00:10:38,283 --> 00:10:42,193
on the eve of the battle,
Constantine looks up into the sky...

175
00:10:43,588 --> 00:10:46,602
and sees what he believes
is a divine vision.

176
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,202
Constantine and his followers

177
00:10:51,214 --> 00:10:53,523
saw in the sky what

178
00:10:53,567 --> 00:10:55,406
their chroniclers say

179
00:10:55,419 --> 00:10:58,141
was a huge, white...

180
00:10:58,672 --> 00:11:01,869
fiery cross.

181
00:11:02,708 --> 00:11:06,410
Now, his followers didn't
know what to make of this,

182
00:11:06,411 --> 00:11:10,465
but Constantine decided that
this was the Christian cross.

183
00:11:11,435 --> 00:11:12,806
Constantine feels,

184
00:11:12,831 --> 00:11:16,221
after viewing this extraordinary
sign from the heavens,

185
00:11:16,222 --> 00:11:18,318
this lighted cross in the sky,

186
00:11:18,438 --> 00:11:20,664
that he will go forth the next day

187
00:11:20,695 --> 00:11:23,291
and he will conquer the Roman Empire,

188
00:11:23,298 --> 00:11:25,794
and this is exactly what he does.

189
00:11:31,118 --> 00:11:36,811
This vision becomes one of the crucial
turning points in human history.

190
00:11:42,167 --> 00:11:45,095
After winning the brutal
battle of Milvian Bridge,

191
00:11:45,295 --> 00:11:47,691
Constantine consolidates his power

192
00:11:47,866 --> 00:11:51,895
and begins a campaign of religious
tolerance across the empire,

193
00:11:52,015 --> 00:11:54,986
and he himself converts to Christianity.

194
00:12:00,241 --> 00:12:03,563
But what exactly did
Constantine see in the sky

195
00:12:03,683 --> 00:12:07,179
that ended up changing the
course of Western civilization?

196
00:12:07,636 --> 00:12:09,457
Was it a divine vision...

197
00:12:09,826 --> 00:12:11,640
or something else?

198
00:12:11,816 --> 00:12:14,763
Don't we all see crosses up in the sky

199
00:12:14,806 --> 00:12:17,265
when we look at planes?

200
00:12:17,747 --> 00:12:20,462
Because you have lights on
the sides and at the front.

201
00:12:20,500 --> 00:12:22,646
And if you have a little
bit of light shining on it,

202
00:12:22,683 --> 00:12:25,242
sometimes they look like crosses.

203
00:12:25,292 --> 00:12:28,139
is it possible

204
00:12:28,164 --> 00:12:31,224
that this was absolutely
no Christian symbol at all,

205
00:12:31,267 --> 00:12:34,326
but that it was adapted over time

206
00:12:34,339 --> 00:12:37,736
after something that
was witnessed in the sky?

207
00:12:39,025 --> 00:12:41,709
Is it possible that extraterrestrials

208
00:12:41,734 --> 00:12:44,137
were responsible for Constantine's vision?

209
00:12:48,028 --> 00:12:49,892
Ancient astronaut theorists

210
00:12:49,917 --> 00:12:52,126
say one compelling piece of evidence

211
00:12:52,246 --> 00:12:55,073
that aliens have tried
to manipulate mankind

212
00:12:55,079 --> 00:12:58,764
through religious visions
still exists today.

213
00:13:02,849 --> 00:13:04,375
Mexico City.

214
00:13:05,732 --> 00:13:08,235
December 1531.

215
00:13:09,505 --> 00:13:12,333
According to an account
called the Nican Mopohua,

216
00:13:12,533 --> 00:13:15,493
published in the Aztec language of Nahuatl,

217
00:13:16,318 --> 00:13:18,515
a peasant named Juan Diego

218
00:13:18,635 --> 00:13:20,686
was walking in the countryside

219
00:13:20,717 --> 00:13:22,287
when he heard a beautiful voice

220
00:13:22,300 --> 00:13:24,570
singing on the other side of a hill.

221
00:13:25,427 --> 00:13:27,373
Diego climbed the hill

222
00:13:27,429 --> 00:13:29,356
and saw an angelic vision...

223
00:13:30,257 --> 00:13:33,629
a woman in white garments
that shone like the sun.

224
00:13:34,718 --> 00:13:37,001
She said to him,

225
00:13:37,020 --> 00:13:40,467
"Juan Diego, I am the Virgin
Mary, and I'm asking you

226
00:13:40,536 --> 00:13:44,058
to build a sanctuary for
me here on this hill."

227
00:13:44,340 --> 00:13:47,305
Well, Juan Diego fell to his knees in awe,

228
00:13:47,336 --> 00:13:50,821
and he said, "Great lady,
I will do as you desire."

229
00:13:52,754 --> 00:13:54,656
But according to the story,

230
00:13:54,776 --> 00:13:57,979
Juan Diego couldn't
convince the local bishop

231
00:13:58,035 --> 00:14:00,662
that he had actually seen the Virgin Mary,

232
00:14:00,782 --> 00:14:02,752
so he went back to the hill,

233
00:14:02,872 --> 00:14:05,441
where he again saw the vision.

234
00:14:05,561 --> 00:14:07,845
He says, "Lady, please give me a sign,

235
00:14:07,876 --> 00:14:11,566
because nobody believes me when
I tell them that I have seen you."

236
00:14:11,686 --> 00:14:14,652
And she says, "Juan Diego,
take off your cloak."

237
00:14:14,677 --> 00:14:16,711
And he does, he takes off his cloak,

238
00:14:16,755 --> 00:14:20,165
and she fills his cloak with roses.

239
00:14:22,648 --> 00:14:25,151
He took the roses to the bishop,

240
00:14:25,164 --> 00:14:27,779
and the bishop fell down on his knees,

241
00:14:27,829 --> 00:14:29,811
because it wasn't the roses

242
00:14:29,818 --> 00:14:32,696
as to why he believed the story from Diego,

243
00:14:32,739 --> 00:14:35,799
but inside the tilma was a painting

244
00:14:35,868 --> 00:14:37,720
of the Virgin Mother.

245
00:14:39,008 --> 00:14:43,288
And the bishop believed, and they
built the church on that hill.

246
00:14:46,885 --> 00:14:49,288
This cloak still exists today,

247
00:14:49,408 --> 00:14:51,615
and despite its frail fabric,

248
00:14:51,678 --> 00:14:54,356
it has reportedly remained
in pristine condition

249
00:14:54,406 --> 00:14:57,071
despite the cruel ravages of time.

250
00:14:58,516 --> 00:15:01,025
Right now you can go to the church

251
00:15:01,194 --> 00:15:03,965
and see the tilma hanging there.

252
00:15:04,028 --> 00:15:06,343
And it has not degraded

253
00:15:06,386 --> 00:15:09,571
over the 400-plus years
that they've had it.

254
00:15:09,790 --> 00:15:13,219
It's been through a fire,
it's been through an explosion,

255
00:15:13,532 --> 00:15:17,161
where purportedly an iron cross was twisted

256
00:15:17,174 --> 00:15:19,764
from the explosion, but the tilma

257
00:15:19,884 --> 00:15:22,348
right next to the cross was still fine.

258
00:15:23,218 --> 00:15:25,576
Could this sacred image on the cloak,

259
00:15:25,589 --> 00:15:28,892
really be evidence of a
visitation by the Virgin Mary?

260
00:15:29,211 --> 00:15:32,815
Or might it have a different,
otherworldly explanation?

261
00:15:32,871 --> 00:15:37,683
In addition to the tilma inexplicably
enduring for hundreds of years,

262
00:15:37,739 --> 00:15:39,335
those who have studied it

263
00:15:39,366 --> 00:15:42,307
have found other unexplainable qualities.

264
00:15:42,895 --> 00:15:44,747
Most bizarre of all

265
00:15:44,785 --> 00:15:46,512
are the eyes of the image.

266
00:15:49,021 --> 00:15:52,199
Approximately seven to
eight millimeters wide,

267
00:15:52,319 --> 00:15:55,115
what we see inside those eyes

268
00:15:55,235 --> 00:15:58,387
is a highly enigmatic mystery,

269
00:15:58,444 --> 00:16:00,915
because it appears

270
00:16:00,959 --> 00:16:04,087
that there are characters in the eyes,

271
00:16:04,207 --> 00:16:06,810
the faces of the people who were there

272
00:16:06,930 --> 00:16:08,943
at the time that the tilma was unveiled

273
00:16:08,981 --> 00:16:11,827
by Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1531.

274
00:16:15,900 --> 00:16:20,893
But if Our Lady of  Guadalupe really
does have otherworldly origins,

275
00:16:21,013 --> 00:16:23,289
did it come from a heavenly realm

276
00:16:23,409 --> 00:16:25,197
or somewhere else?

277
00:16:26,718 --> 00:16:29,152
Not only do ancient astronaut theorists

278
00:16:29,177 --> 00:16:30,835
believe Juan Diego's vision

279
00:16:30,860 --> 00:16:33,181
was an extraterrestrial encounter,

280
00:16:33,301 --> 00:16:35,640
but even some members of the church

281
00:16:35,652 --> 00:16:39,306
claim that it was something
other than a religious experience.

282
00:16:40,426 --> 00:16:42,371
Our Lady of Guadalupe

283
00:16:42,403 --> 00:16:45,099
is definitely a heavenly visitor.

284
00:16:45,731 --> 00:16:50,618
In my opinion, though, what her story said

285
00:16:50,738 --> 00:16:53,765
disagrees with what the Bible says.

286
00:16:54,403 --> 00:16:59,084
In fact, she said she would protect
the people that worship at the church.

287
00:16:59,204 --> 00:17:01,868
What that does is really deify Mary

288
00:17:01,893 --> 00:17:07,517
when the Bible is very clear that only
God can protect those that serve him.

289
00:17:07,893 --> 00:17:10,871
And so any otherworldly being

290
00:17:11,122 --> 00:17:13,506
that demands worship or respect,

291
00:17:13,549 --> 00:17:16,621
it cannot be an angel from God.

292
00:17:18,249 --> 00:17:20,282
Juan Diego may have witnessed

293
00:17:20,315 --> 00:17:22,303
not just an apparition

294
00:17:22,360 --> 00:17:25,557
but an actual live extraterrestrial

295
00:17:25,613 --> 00:17:28,246
appearing through some
sort of advanced technology

296
00:17:28,366 --> 00:17:32,269
whose mission was to impart spiritual faith

297
00:17:32,332 --> 00:17:34,134
and a thirst for the divine.

298
00:17:38,882 --> 00:17:43,043
Could it be that some of history's
most significant religious visions

299
00:17:43,105 --> 00:17:44,908
have actually been produced

300
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,737
by alien beings carrying
out a secret mission?

301
00:17:49,050 --> 00:17:52,015
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes

302
00:17:52,090 --> 00:17:57,019
and believe further proof that
extraterrestrials have been guiding our future

303
00:17:57,245 --> 00:18:00,673
can be found in the story
of a mysterious magician

304
00:18:00,929 --> 00:18:03,075
that may have helped propel humanity

305
00:18:03,107 --> 00:18:05,002
into the modern age.

306
00:18:09,714 --> 00:18:11,453
The English Channel.

307
00:18:12,417 --> 00:18:14,106
1588.

308
00:18:14,226 --> 00:18:17,046
King Philip II of Spain

309
00:18:17,077 --> 00:18:20,763
has dispatched an enormous
armada of ships to invade England.

310
00:18:22,164 --> 00:18:25,930
They are reportedly filled
with more than 20,000 soldiers

311
00:18:25,967 --> 00:18:29,176
and scores of medieval torture devices.

312
00:18:30,478 --> 00:18:32,401
According to some historians,

313
00:18:32,405 --> 00:18:34,507
Philip, a devout Catholic,

314
00:18:34,627 --> 00:18:38,068
wants to bring the brutal
Spanish Inquisition to England

315
00:18:38,168 --> 00:18:40,352
to punish Queen Elizabeth I

316
00:18:40,383 --> 00:18:43,561
and her subjects for
leaving the Catholic Church.

317
00:18:45,213 --> 00:18:48,942
Philip was a Catholic, and
England had been turned Protestant

318
00:18:48,967 --> 00:18:50,824
by Elizabeth's father, Henry VII,

319
00:18:50,825 --> 00:18:55,824
when he broke with the Catholic Church in
order to marry Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn.

320
00:18:56,550 --> 00:19:00,047
So, to Philip, the English were sinners

321
00:19:00,066 --> 00:19:03,015
and their ways needed to be reformed.

322
00:19:03,019 --> 00:19:08,006
So he sent a great armada, a
great fleet of over 130 ships.

323
00:19:08,262 --> 00:19:11,472
There had never been
anything like it before.

324
00:19:14,607 --> 00:19:16,915
England didn't have a lot of money,

325
00:19:16,921 --> 00:19:18,861
and a lot of their vessels

326
00:19:18,981 --> 00:19:21,807
were not even official government vessels.

327
00:19:21,839 --> 00:19:26,494
They were whatever merchant seamen
and sailors could cobble together.

328
00:19:28,608 --> 00:19:31,317
The Spanish Armada seemed invincible

329
00:19:31,354 --> 00:19:33,963
and the British severely over-matched.

330
00:19:35,909 --> 00:19:38,149
But when the two forces finally met,

331
00:19:38,330 --> 00:19:40,821
superior English tactics and strategy

332
00:19:40,858 --> 00:19:43,186
forced the armada to retreat.

333
00:19:43,718 --> 00:19:46,620
But the number of Spanish
ships was so overwhelming

334
00:19:46,670 --> 00:19:49,692
that the English couldn't
score a decisive victory

335
00:19:49,724 --> 00:19:52,639
until a freak storm struck.

336
00:19:52,821 --> 00:19:55,848
The English ships were more
maneuverable than the Spanish ships.

337
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,532
In order to counter this,
the Spanish cut their anchors.

338
00:19:58,564 --> 00:20:01,780
They figured, "Well, let's get rid of
some of this dead weight, so to speak."

339
00:20:03,544 --> 00:20:05,052
But when the winds hit,

340
00:20:05,071 --> 00:20:07,299
they had no way to find a mooring,

341
00:20:07,330 --> 00:20:09,181
and then therefore the winds blew

342
00:20:09,182 --> 00:20:10,565
their ships all over the place,

343
00:20:10,596 --> 00:20:12,322
including into the coast.

344
00:20:12,372 --> 00:20:16,008
They lost roughly half of
their fleet due to the weather.

345
00:20:16,227 --> 00:20:18,461
From the point of view
of the English people,

346
00:20:18,473 --> 00:20:22,275
this extraordinary storm that destroys
the Spanish Armada is a miracle,

347
00:20:22,301 --> 00:20:24,677
destroying the might of Spain

348
00:20:24,703 --> 00:20:26,849
when mankind cannot do it.

349
00:20:28,238 --> 00:20:30,816
The English believed this miraculous storm

350
00:20:30,847 --> 00:20:32,405
was the work of God,

351
00:20:33,131 --> 00:20:35,532
but some ancient astronaut theorists

352
00:20:35,533 --> 00:20:37,586
claim there is evidence that suggests

353
00:20:37,598 --> 00:20:39,280
it may have actually been the work

354
00:20:39,293 --> 00:20:41,232
of otherworldly beings.

355
00:20:42,421 --> 00:20:43,847
Their first clue

356
00:20:43,916 --> 00:20:47,300
comes from one of Queen
Elizabeth's closest advisors,

357
00:20:47,531 --> 00:20:50,647
a mysterious man named John Dee.

358
00:20:51,035 --> 00:20:56,329
John Dee was the court astrologer,
mathematician, philosopher,

359
00:20:56,449 --> 00:21:00,133
medical doctor at the
court of Queen Elizabeth I.

360
00:21:00,253 --> 00:21:03,944
He was an extraordinarily
learned man for his time.

361
00:21:05,214 --> 00:21:08,680
He dealt with magic and potions

362
00:21:08,699 --> 00:21:12,640
and what we might call spells
to try to effect change.

363
00:21:16,613 --> 00:21:18,795
John Dee was a Hermetic thinker.

364
00:21:18,796 --> 00:21:20,384
Hermetic thinkers believed

365
00:21:20,385 --> 00:21:25,159
that there was a contemporary of Moses
by the name of Hermes Trismegistus

366
00:21:25,228 --> 00:21:26,548
who lived in Egypt.

367
00:21:26,616 --> 00:21:30,909
And, just as God revealed
the Ten Commandments to Moses,

368
00:21:30,965 --> 00:21:35,576
God revealed to Hermes the secret
knowledge of how nature worked

369
00:21:35,595 --> 00:21:38,916
and that with the proper mind-set

370
00:21:38,917 --> 00:21:42,677
and proper tools that one could uncover

371
00:21:42,684 --> 00:21:44,692
essentially what God was thinking

372
00:21:44,729 --> 00:21:47,251
by reading the world.

373
00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:50,773
According to legend,

374
00:21:50,893 --> 00:21:55,015
John Dee used this knowledge of
the natural and supernatural worlds

375
00:21:55,135 --> 00:21:59,158
to predict the storm that would
ultimately thwart the Spanish Armada.

376
00:22:01,604 --> 00:22:04,963
The story goes that John Dee told

377
00:22:05,083 --> 00:22:10,263
Queen Elizabeth not to worry because a
storm would destroy the Spanish fleet.

378
00:22:10,475 --> 00:22:12,258
And then, when it happened,

379
00:22:12,271 --> 00:22:16,025
it confirmed his knowledge of
the world and what lay beneath it.

380
00:22:16,657 --> 00:22:20,035
But if John Dee really
did make such a prophecy,

381
00:22:20,155 --> 00:22:21,737
what was the source?

382
00:22:22,407 --> 00:22:24,440
Was it something divine?

383
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,394
Or is it possible, as ancient
astronaut theorists contend,

384
00:22:28,514 --> 00:22:30,258
that this mysterious man

385
00:22:30,271 --> 00:22:33,768
was using Hermetic wisdom
to establish communication

386
00:22:33,781 --> 00:22:36,277
with extraterrestrial beings?

387
00:22:36,584 --> 00:22:39,206
John Dee was very interested in the occult

388
00:22:39,249 --> 00:22:42,178
and seemed to spend a
lot of time harnessing or

389
00:22:42,209 --> 00:22:43,798
finding a way to communicate

390
00:22:43,804 --> 00:22:46,050
to life-forms beyond this Earth.

391
00:22:46,170 --> 00:22:48,728
We really don't understand
the influence over John Dee

392
00:22:48,759 --> 00:22:51,945
as to how he was able to interpret
such accurate information.

393
00:22:52,257 --> 00:22:54,284
It's very possible that John Dee

394
00:22:54,297 --> 00:22:56,740
was receiving his information
from an outside source

395
00:22:56,777 --> 00:22:59,274
that was possibly an extraterrestrial.

396
00:23:00,995 --> 00:23:03,851
But if John Dee's
pursuit of Hermetic wisdom

397
00:23:03,907 --> 00:23:07,167
gave him insights into
the alien agenda on Earth,

398
00:23:07,367 --> 00:23:08,856
what did he find?

399
00:23:08,976 --> 00:23:11,127
And why would extraterrestrials

400
00:23:11,152 --> 00:23:13,642
want to sink the Spanish Armada?

401
00:23:13,762 --> 00:23:17,509
It is possible these
extraterrestrials had a vested interest

402
00:23:17,553 --> 00:23:20,192
in preserving the monarchy
of Queen Elizabeth,

403
00:23:20,193 --> 00:23:23,290
in seeing that the
monarchy was not overthrown,

404
00:23:23,410 --> 00:23:26,906
and they repelled any such invading forces

405
00:23:27,150 --> 00:23:31,310
in order to make sure that this
carefully constructed power structure

406
00:23:31,379 --> 00:23:33,450
was kept fully intact.

407
00:23:34,995 --> 00:23:37,617
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

408
00:23:37,737 --> 00:23:42,434
extraterrestrials were not acting
to favor Protestants over Catholics

409
00:23:42,554 --> 00:23:45,703
but may have wanted to
preserve the great cultural

410
00:23:45,707 --> 00:23:49,098
and scientific developments
that would occur in England

411
00:23:49,129 --> 00:23:50,718
in the coming centuries.

412
00:23:50,737 --> 00:23:53,434
What happened in England

413
00:23:53,554 --> 00:23:56,537
after Queen Elizabeth's time

414
00:23:56,956 --> 00:24:00,204
was nothing less than miraculous.

415
00:24:00,410 --> 00:24:02,725
We had the Scientific Revolution.

416
00:24:02,781 --> 00:24:05,165
We had people like Isaac Newton.

417
00:24:05,528 --> 00:24:09,188
And we had other great scientists develop

418
00:24:09,301 --> 00:24:12,523
what eventually became the
Industrial Revolution...

419
00:24:12,561 --> 00:24:16,408
steam trains, electricity
and the modern world.

420
00:24:17,453 --> 00:24:18,886
The period that followed

421
00:24:18,904 --> 00:24:22,277
also gave rise to champions
of the scientific method,

422
00:24:22,534 --> 00:24:25,205
like Francis Bacon and John Locke,

423
00:24:25,325 --> 00:24:27,620
and led to an age of exploration

424
00:24:27,740 --> 00:24:33,557
that would give rise to a greater investment
in the still fledgling new land of America.

425
00:24:34,514 --> 00:24:37,561
If the Spanish had succeeded
in conquering England,

426
00:24:37,618 --> 00:24:39,688
they would have brought
the Inquisition with them

427
00:24:39,751 --> 00:24:42,591
in a period of darkness and torture.

428
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,608
And, likely, the Industrial
Revolution never would have happened.

429
00:24:48,529 --> 00:24:51,006
Might some otherworldly entity

430
00:24:51,126 --> 00:24:54,028
really have intervened
in the Spanish invasion,

431
00:24:54,447 --> 00:24:56,987
sending a storm to destroy their ships

432
00:24:56,993 --> 00:24:59,076
and ensure the future of England?

433
00:25:00,565 --> 00:25:01,835
And, if so,

434
00:25:01,955 --> 00:25:06,715
is this a sign that aliens really
do have an interest in our future?

435
00:25:06,947 --> 00:25:09,174
Perhaps the answer can be found

436
00:25:09,294 --> 00:25:14,523
by examining the vision that inspired
one of the world's newest religions.

437
00:25:17,658 --> 00:25:19,404
Manchester, New York.

438
00:25:20,825 --> 00:25:24,040
September 21, 1823.

439
00:25:26,512 --> 00:25:28,147
As he settles into bed,

440
00:25:28,267 --> 00:25:31,348
a 17-year-old farmhand named Joseph Smith

441
00:25:31,361 --> 00:25:33,306
begins to say his prayers.

442
00:25:35,307 --> 00:25:37,211
Suddenly, without warning,

443
00:25:37,411 --> 00:25:40,326
an overpowering light envelops his room,

444
00:25:41,490 --> 00:25:43,248
and a robed figure appears.

445
00:25:44,537 --> 00:25:46,358
According to Smith's account,

446
00:25:46,470 --> 00:25:49,035
"Not only was his robe exceedingly white,

447
00:25:49,104 --> 00:25:52,508
but his whole person was
glorious beyond description."

448
00:25:53,753 --> 00:25:55,535
Speaking from the center of the light,

449
00:25:55,573 --> 00:25:57,975
the angel, whose name is Moroni,

450
00:25:58,095 --> 00:26:01,498
sends Smith on a quest
for several sacred texts

451
00:26:01,510 --> 00:26:03,412
hidden near a local tree.

452
00:26:06,410 --> 00:26:08,581
Upon locating the tree,

453
00:26:08,612 --> 00:26:11,564
Joseph dug and indeed found the texts,

454
00:26:11,684 --> 00:26:15,256
but they recorded a language
which he could not read.

455
00:26:16,351 --> 00:26:19,211
A second visitation from Moroni

456
00:26:19,261 --> 00:26:22,001
told Joseph Smith where he could find

457
00:26:22,121 --> 00:26:24,792
what we might call a device of some kind

458
00:26:24,912 --> 00:26:27,532
that would allow him to read the texts.

459
00:26:30,035 --> 00:26:35,672
Joseph Smith was given
this translating stone,

460
00:26:35,691 --> 00:26:38,644
the Urim and Dethumium,
with which he was able to

461
00:26:38,656 --> 00:26:41,653
not only write down this text,

462
00:26:43,030 --> 00:26:45,808
but also to be able to translate it.

463
00:26:46,865 --> 00:26:50,187
He then translated the texts into English,

464
00:26:50,193 --> 00:26:51,914
which become The Book of Mormon.

465
00:26:52,959 --> 00:26:55,719
And it depicts, among other things,

466
00:26:55,769 --> 00:26:58,052
that after Jesus ascended into heaven,

467
00:26:58,077 --> 00:26:59,654
he came to the Americas

468
00:26:59,666 --> 00:27:02,394
and ministered to the native peoples here,

469
00:27:03,940 --> 00:27:06,755
to convert them to his way of life,

470
00:27:06,799 --> 00:27:11,029
and that at some point the texts that become
The Book of  Mormon are deposited here,

471
00:27:11,048 --> 00:27:13,119
so that Joseph Smith could find them.

472
00:27:16,366 --> 00:27:18,024
Seven years later,

473
00:27:18,068 --> 00:27:21,871
Smith publishes these texts
as part of The Book of Mormon,

474
00:27:21,991 --> 00:27:26,125
establishing The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-Day Saints,

475
00:27:26,752 --> 00:27:30,810
a denomination with more than
15 million followers today.

476
00:27:33,175 --> 00:27:37,730
Many religions worldwide have been
founded with the help of angels.

477
00:27:38,493 --> 00:27:41,696
Whether they're representatives
of Christian, Muslim,

478
00:27:41,758 --> 00:27:43,598
or Buddhist gods,

479
00:27:43,718 --> 00:27:46,226
these apparitions are thought to be a way

480
00:27:46,263 --> 00:27:49,460
the gods intervene on Earth with humans.

481
00:27:49,761 --> 00:27:53,640
Angels, when they appear in
religious legends and in myths,

482
00:27:53,652 --> 00:27:57,795
generally are messengers between the
heavenly realm and the human realm.

483
00:27:58,783 --> 00:28:02,544
Throughout the Bible,
we have stories of angels

484
00:28:02,575 --> 00:28:05,534
and demons appearing to mankind.

485
00:28:06,448 --> 00:28:09,113
In fact, Paul says that,

486
00:28:09,138 --> 00:28:12,210
"You be careful how you entertain strangers

487
00:28:12,229 --> 00:28:15,845
because some of you
entertain angels unaware."

488
00:28:16,101 --> 00:28:18,203
The Bible is very clear that

489
00:28:18,237 --> 00:28:20,850
angels can take on human form

490
00:28:20,869 --> 00:28:23,854
and appear in the likeness of man.

491
00:28:26,944 --> 00:28:29,659
But ancient astronaut theorists suggest

492
00:28:29,660 --> 00:28:32,926
that sometimes these heavenly
visions and apparitions

493
00:28:32,983 --> 00:28:36,812
may not actually be angels
sent by an omniscient god.

494
00:28:37,581 --> 00:28:38,926
And curiously,

495
00:28:38,945 --> 00:28:42,862
the so-called angel that led
Joseph Smith to the sacred texts

496
00:28:42,881 --> 00:28:44,801
that would become The Book of Mormon

497
00:28:44,851 --> 00:28:47,717
did not profess to have heavenly origins,

498
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,139
but claimed to be from
another part of the universe.

499
00:28:52,321 --> 00:28:56,251
Now, Moroni did not say
that he was an angel.

500
00:28:56,371 --> 00:29:00,243
He said that at one time
he had lived on Earth,

501
00:29:00,524 --> 00:29:04,003
but that now he came from
the Pleiades star cluster.

502
00:29:04,635 --> 00:29:07,125
And he said there were
many others like him.

503
00:29:08,883 --> 00:29:11,142
When we look at the background
of The Book of Mormon,

504
00:29:11,157 --> 00:29:14,388
we see some very interesting
parallels to what could be

505
00:29:14,395 --> 00:29:16,009
an extraterrestrial tale.

506
00:29:16,129 --> 00:29:19,412
This angel, Moroni, that
appears to Joseph Smith

507
00:29:20,939 --> 00:29:23,347
seems to be more than just chance.

508
00:29:24,461 --> 00:29:26,694
It's very possible that Joseph Smith was

509
00:29:26,814 --> 00:29:30,017
interacting with a type
of extraterrestrial.

510
00:29:32,181 --> 00:29:35,803
These extraterrestrials
may be giving these messages

511
00:29:35,816 --> 00:29:39,232
to world leaders and to
prophets and seers and mystics

512
00:29:39,352 --> 00:29:40,984
to let us know

513
00:29:41,115 --> 00:29:45,844
that we are the product of an
extraterrestrial interbreeding,

514
00:29:45,964 --> 00:29:49,886
and an ongoing contact
with these other people

515
00:29:50,006 --> 00:29:51,706
who were not born on Earth.

516
00:29:52,607 --> 00:29:55,867
And we have lost touch with that history

517
00:29:55,955 --> 00:29:57,494
only because

518
00:29:57,500 --> 00:29:59,740
we refuse to believe the truth

519
00:29:59,777 --> 00:30:02,111
that is recorded in our historical books

520
00:30:02,249 --> 00:30:04,558
and see what's right in front of our faces,

521
00:30:04,577 --> 00:30:07,035
even now with the encounters

522
00:30:07,067 --> 00:30:08,931
that are happening in the modern world.

523
00:30:12,709 --> 00:30:14,962
But if an extraterrestrial

524
00:30:14,987 --> 00:30:17,082
being really did inspire Joseph Smith

525
00:30:17,095 --> 00:30:19,954
to found the Mormon church, why?

526
00:30:20,661 --> 00:30:22,557
Joseph Smith's encounter

527
00:30:22,588 --> 00:30:25,328
ultimately led the Mormons to migrate west

528
00:30:25,359 --> 00:30:28,363
to establish a new holy land in Utah,

529
00:30:28,413 --> 00:30:32,423
which has led some to speculate
that aliens, once again,

530
00:30:32,479 --> 00:30:35,014
were guiding the course of humanity.

531
00:30:35,134 --> 00:30:39,011
Moroni let Joseph Smith know
that he would be the prophet,

532
00:30:39,049 --> 00:30:42,477
and he would lead his
people to the new Jerusalem.

533
00:30:42,653 --> 00:30:45,831
Mormonism is another example, potentially,

534
00:30:45,869 --> 00:30:48,610
of an extraterrestrial influence

535
00:30:48,622 --> 00:30:50,655
steering the course of our humanity,

536
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,533
and helping steer the outcome

537
00:30:52,551 --> 00:30:54,772
of historical events here on Earth.

538
00:30:58,264 --> 00:31:00,347
Is it possible that Joseph Smith,

539
00:31:00,378 --> 00:31:02,286
the founder of the Mormon religion,

540
00:31:02,406 --> 00:31:05,809
was guided by an extraterrestrial being?

541
00:31:06,423 --> 00:31:07,711
And if so,

542
00:31:07,786 --> 00:31:10,796
was this alien encounter another attempt

543
00:31:10,821 --> 00:31:14,006
to guide us into a more enlightened age?

544
00:31:14,293 --> 00:31:17,172
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

545
00:31:18,348 --> 00:31:20,882
and believe further evidence can be found

546
00:31:20,932 --> 00:31:22,553
by examining a dream

547
00:31:22,673 --> 00:31:25,355
that helped defeat one
of the 20th century's

548
00:31:25,362 --> 00:31:28,302
most diabolical dictators.

549
00:31:33,764 --> 00:31:35,753
Olympia, Greece.

550
00:31:37,198 --> 00:31:40,252
his valley on the Peloponnesus Peninsula,

551
00:31:40,289 --> 00:31:44,075
once filled with temples,
altars and statues,

552
00:31:44,106 --> 00:31:47,904
is where the ancient Greeks came
to pay tribute to their gods.

553
00:31:48,956 --> 00:31:52,178
Near the temple to Zeus,
the king of the gods,

554
00:31:52,298 --> 00:31:55,068
was a sanctuary dedicated to the Moirai,

555
00:31:55,299 --> 00:31:58,440
the only beings that Zeus was said to fear.

556
00:31:59,084 --> 00:32:03,145
These mythical figures were
believed to control destiny.

557
00:32:03,265 --> 00:32:06,486
English speakers call them "The Fates."

558
00:32:07,518 --> 00:32:10,484
In ancient times, fate and human destiny

559
00:32:10,503 --> 00:32:12,843
were thought to be in
the hands of the gods.

560
00:32:12,855 --> 00:32:16,498
There was much less this idea that
we're in charge of our own destiny

561
00:32:16,529 --> 00:32:21,265
and that we make our own lives through
choices and decisions and action.

562
00:32:21,947 --> 00:32:24,563
The idea was that human destiny

563
00:32:24,613 --> 00:32:28,329
was in someone else's hands. It
was in the hands of the fates.

564
00:32:28,373 --> 00:32:30,870
There were three supernatural creatures.

565
00:32:31,064 --> 00:32:33,479
Clotho, who spun the thread of life;

566
00:32:33,516 --> 00:32:35,925
Lachesis, who wove it;

567
00:32:35,981 --> 00:32:39,823
and Atropos, who cut the
thread at the moment of death.

568
00:32:40,123 --> 00:32:42,190
In the ancient times, gods and goddesses

569
00:32:42,215 --> 00:32:44,861
were thought to be able to
influence people's destiny,

570
00:32:44,874 --> 00:32:48,115
and that they were constantly
interfering in human affairs.

571
00:32:48,290 --> 00:32:50,348
They were constantly messing with humans.

572
00:32:50,392 --> 00:32:52,519
They could make humans
do all kinds of things.

573
00:32:52,556 --> 00:32:55,115
They could disguise themselves.
They could trick humans.

574
00:32:55,121 --> 00:32:56,604
They could persuade humans.

575
00:32:56,724 --> 00:32:59,620
And yet, that final moment of destiny

576
00:33:00,183 --> 00:33:02,992
was still in the hands of the Fates.

577
00:33:04,274 --> 00:33:07,653
Other ancient cultures had similar beliefs.

578
00:33:07,665 --> 00:33:11,650
The Egyptians personified
fate as the god Shai

579
00:33:11,770 --> 00:33:14,516
who was said to control
the actions of humans,

580
00:33:15,673 --> 00:33:18,264
while the Vedic texts of ancient India

581
00:33:18,282 --> 00:33:21,348
talked about a universal order called Rta.

582
00:33:21,730 --> 00:33:24,907
There was a similar legend
in ancient Mesopotamia.

583
00:33:24,908 --> 00:33:26,609
And it was of the Mamitu,

584
00:33:26,634 --> 00:33:28,736
who was a goat-headed goddess

585
00:33:29,062 --> 00:33:32,547
who lived with the Anunnaki
in the realms of the sky.

586
00:33:33,460 --> 00:33:37,039
The Mamitu was also in charge of our fate.

587
00:33:37,233 --> 00:33:40,356
So you have to wonder... was the Mamitu

588
00:33:40,476 --> 00:33:42,471
and these other gods of fate

589
00:33:42,496 --> 00:33:47,588
some kind of extraterrestrials
that were controlling our lives?

590
00:33:48,615 --> 00:33:52,694
Is it possible, as some ancient
astronaut theorists suggest,

591
00:33:52,756 --> 00:33:55,716
that the gods who were
said to control our fate

592
00:33:55,728 --> 00:33:59,489
were actually members of an
advanced alien civilization?

593
00:34:00,390 --> 00:34:01,673
And if so,

594
00:34:01,793 --> 00:34:05,915
how were they able to interfere
in people's lives undetected?

595
00:34:06,328 --> 00:34:09,500
Some ancient astronaut theorists suggest

596
00:34:09,525 --> 00:34:12,972
that extraterrestrials not
only communicate with us

597
00:34:13,003 --> 00:34:15,437
through visions and physical encounters,

598
00:34:15,481 --> 00:34:18,065
but even through our dreams.

599
00:34:19,460 --> 00:34:20,937
New York City.

600
00:34:20,987 --> 00:34:23,358
Spring, 1940.

601
00:34:24,074 --> 00:34:26,715
At the Bell Laboratory
complex in Manhattan,

602
00:34:26,784 --> 00:34:29,656
a young engineer named David Parkinson

603
00:34:29,776 --> 00:34:32,646
is using a device called a potentiometer

604
00:34:32,696 --> 00:34:34,955
to track the varying electrical voltages

605
00:34:34,980 --> 00:34:37,770
that course through a
telephone when people use it.

606
00:34:38,834 --> 00:34:42,774
Parkinson's work with
potentiometers seems unimportant

607
00:34:42,894 --> 00:34:45,408
compared to the big news of the day.

608
00:34:46,796 --> 00:34:49,881
Nazis have begun their
shattering blitz on Britain.

609
00:34:52,684 --> 00:34:55,518
The Nazis have conquered most of Europe,

610
00:34:55,787 --> 00:34:58,221
forcing the Allies to flee the continent

611
00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:02,969
in a ragtag flotilla of civilian
boats after the Battle of Dunkirk.

612
00:35:04,752 --> 00:35:08,094
The Nazis were almost undefeatable
at this time in the war,

613
00:35:08,132 --> 00:35:13,049
and there was a  tremendous despair
and fear amongst the Allied forces.

614
00:35:14,119 --> 00:35:17,522
And the story goes that David
Parkinson had a dream one night,

615
00:35:17,523 --> 00:35:21,427
and in the dream he was standing
beside a certain type of gun.

616
00:35:25,869 --> 00:35:31,055
And that gun was hitting every
Nazi plane with absolute accuracy.

617
00:35:33,457 --> 00:35:36,510
Parkinson's dream gave
him a brilliant idea.

618
00:35:37,805 --> 00:35:41,427
He could use the same technology
that tracked electrical charges

619
00:35:41,434 --> 00:35:42,841
flowing through a telephone

620
00:35:42,879 --> 00:35:46,282
to track enemy airplanes
flying through the sky.

621
00:35:46,995 --> 00:35:50,531
And in the dream, he was
able to see the technology

622
00:35:50,556 --> 00:35:54,322
that was created to make
this gun so accurate.

623
00:35:55,005 --> 00:35:57,044
And it is said that when he awoke,

624
00:35:57,094 --> 00:36:01,223
he went back to the labs and he
ultimately created the technology

625
00:36:01,236 --> 00:36:04,414
that was necessary to
shoot down Nazi aircraft.

626
00:36:07,437 --> 00:36:12,273
Parkinson's dream inspired him to
create the M-9 electrical gun director,

627
00:36:12,856 --> 00:36:15,446
which allowed Allied anti-aircraft guns

628
00:36:15,465 --> 00:36:18,574
to hit moving targets like
the dangerous V-1 rocket

629
00:36:18,599 --> 00:36:20,589
with incredible accuracy.

630
00:36:23,116 --> 00:36:25,206
But how could such an advanced weapon

631
00:36:25,244 --> 00:36:28,216
be completely realized in a single dream?

632
00:36:30,675 --> 00:36:32,627
The weird part about it is

633
00:36:32,695 --> 00:36:34,766
this guy was a scientist,

634
00:36:34,785 --> 00:36:37,413
but he knew nothing about aeronautics.

635
00:36:38,646 --> 00:36:43,595
Because David Parkinson had
no background in aerodynamics,

636
00:36:43,626 --> 00:36:46,880
his contemporaries, other
scientists, and the military were

637
00:36:46,899 --> 00:36:50,928
literally taking him not seriously at all.

638
00:36:51,541 --> 00:36:55,763
But he insisted and he even
spent a lot of his own time

639
00:36:55,795 --> 00:36:59,999
creating prototypes, which
eventually were found to work.

640
00:37:02,764 --> 00:37:03,947
Throughout human history,

641
00:37:03,959 --> 00:37:07,633
there are amazing stories of
how mankind has been inspired

642
00:37:07,658 --> 00:37:09,816
through their dreams and
through their visions.

643
00:37:10,529 --> 00:37:12,781
I think we have to ask ourselves

644
00:37:12,825 --> 00:37:15,140
what is the source of this inspiration?

645
00:37:15,171 --> 00:37:18,106
Where do these dreams
and visions come from?

646
00:37:18,875 --> 00:37:24,541
Is it possible that we are being
communicated with by otherworldly beings?

647
00:37:25,769 --> 00:37:27,571
Could extraterrestrials

648
00:37:27,577 --> 00:37:31,274
really be using dreams to
convey ideas and information

649
00:37:31,306 --> 00:37:33,039
to the human race?

650
00:37:33,602 --> 00:37:36,642
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

651
00:37:36,692 --> 00:37:39,607
and claim the proof that dream manipulation

652
00:37:39,658 --> 00:37:41,366
is a real possibility

653
00:37:41,486 --> 00:37:44,294
can be found in the human brain.

654
00:37:47,566 --> 00:37:48,779
Throughout history,

655
00:37:48,836 --> 00:37:51,232
many of mankind's greatest thinkers

656
00:37:51,257 --> 00:37:53,685
have been inspired by their dreams.

657
00:37:54,780 --> 00:37:56,744
Scientist James Watson

658
00:37:56,775 --> 00:37:59,329
claimed the double helix structure of DNA

659
00:37:59,449 --> 00:38:03,126
came to him through his
dream of a spiral staircase.

660
00:38:03,458 --> 00:38:05,404
Friedrich August Kekulé

661
00:38:05,448 --> 00:38:08,001
discovered the chemical
structure of benzene

662
00:38:08,038 --> 00:38:10,248
when he had a dream of a group of snakes

663
00:38:10,255 --> 00:38:12,013
swallowing their tails.

664
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,047
Srinivasa Ramanujan,

665
00:38:15,066 --> 00:38:19,678
whose mathematic principles are still
being used by quantum physicists today,

666
00:38:19,853 --> 00:38:22,581
said that he obtained
these mathematic theorems

667
00:38:22,618 --> 00:38:24,745
in dreams implanted in his mind

668
00:38:24,814 --> 00:38:27,135
by the Hindu goddess Namagiri.

669
00:38:28,750 --> 00:38:31,402
We are seeing an ongoing pattern

670
00:38:31,522 --> 00:38:34,581
of dreams being used to
communicate information.

671
00:38:35,231 --> 00:38:37,415
This is a widespread phenomenon.

672
00:38:37,458 --> 00:38:40,655
It's been going on for
many thousands of years.

673
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,502
And it continues right straight
through to the present day.

674
00:38:44,772 --> 00:38:48,420
Is it really possible that
extraterrestrial beings

675
00:38:48,439 --> 00:38:51,473
could actually manipulate our dreams?

676
00:38:51,811 --> 00:38:54,602
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes;

677
00:38:55,484 --> 00:38:59,244
and as evidence, they point
out that modern science

678
00:38:59,307 --> 00:39:01,766
is already starting to understand

679
00:39:01,828 --> 00:39:05,019
how to interpret and manipulate dreams.

680
00:39:06,965 --> 00:39:09,411
Moran Cerf is a neuroscientist

681
00:39:09,436 --> 00:39:11,738
who studies human brainwaves.

682
00:39:12,095 --> 00:39:13,878
In one of his experiments,

683
00:39:13,928 --> 00:39:16,787
he shows pictures to test
subjects while they're awake

684
00:39:16,907 --> 00:39:20,666
and analyzes how their
brains process the images.

685
00:39:21,097 --> 00:39:26,071
So each of those little squares here
corresponds to a cell in Matt's brain.

686
00:39:26,277 --> 00:39:30,055
So, right now, Matt has
128 electrodes in his brain.

687
00:39:30,105 --> 00:39:34,848
They come from all various parts of
his brain... right, left and so on.

688
00:39:34,968 --> 00:39:36,869
All of those wires going to this computer.

689
00:39:36,882 --> 00:39:41,086
What we see here are the activities
of those little cells in his brain.

690
00:39:41,086 --> 00:39:43,156
So, if I pick cell number 36,

691
00:39:43,188 --> 00:39:44,915
and I double click on that,

692
00:39:45,428 --> 00:39:48,274
what you see here is the
activity inside his brain.

693
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,003
This is like a microphone sitting
next to one cell in his brain.

694
00:39:53,405 --> 00:39:58,129
Dr. Cerf can determine which cell stores
the memory of a particular picture,

695
00:39:58,323 --> 00:40:00,444
like movie star Cary Grant,

696
00:40:00,619 --> 00:40:04,923
by analyzing which cell reacted when
he showed it to his test subject.

697
00:40:06,425 --> 00:40:09,635
Once he's figured this
out for dozens of cells,

698
00:40:09,691 --> 00:40:13,107
Dr. Cerf waits for his
patients to go to sleep

699
00:40:13,144 --> 00:40:17,437
and then watches for signs that they're
dreaming about the images he has shown them.

700
00:40:18,450 --> 00:40:19,989
In a very basic way,

701
00:40:20,052 --> 00:40:22,586
he can see his patients' dreams.

702
00:40:23,912 --> 00:40:25,276
But in the future,

703
00:40:25,295 --> 00:40:28,605
Dr. Cerf may actually be
able to dictate our dreams

704
00:40:28,661 --> 00:40:32,083
by stimulating the set of
cells that store our memories

705
00:40:32,089 --> 00:40:33,985
about a person or event.

706
00:40:34,673 --> 00:40:38,847
If I really map the entire sequence, if
I know all the, say, one million cells

707
00:40:38,859 --> 00:40:41,574
that encode Cary Grant in your
brain and know exactly what they are,

708
00:40:41,599 --> 00:40:44,371
and I activate all of them,
I stimulate all of them,

709
00:40:44,491 --> 00:40:48,482
then, we believe, you are going
to actually see Cary Grant.

710
00:40:51,060 --> 00:40:55,127
If aliens really have been coming
to Earth for thousands of years,

711
00:40:55,247 --> 00:40:59,763
could they be using similar
technology to manipulate our dreams?

712
00:41:00,888 --> 00:41:03,979
Is it possible that the extraterrestrials

713
00:41:03,992 --> 00:41:08,434
don't want to directly
interfere in our society

714
00:41:08,496 --> 00:41:11,392
but to guide us from behind the scenes?

715
00:41:11,968 --> 00:41:14,032
And even though they have to

716
00:41:14,070 --> 00:41:16,604
push us along in certain directions,

717
00:41:16,635 --> 00:41:19,588
we need to have the
feeling that we're doing it,

718
00:41:20,065 --> 00:41:24,982
even if it does include some
extraterrestrial guidance.

719
00:41:27,272 --> 00:41:31,589
They continue to communicate with
humans through dreams and visions

720
00:41:31,589 --> 00:41:34,367
and other methods of indirect communication

721
00:41:34,411 --> 00:41:36,451
in order for them to provide guidance,

722
00:41:36,469 --> 00:41:40,286
but also to provide this
guidance in a hands-off way.

723
00:41:41,987 --> 00:41:45,560
Is it possible that they
withdrew from our reality

724
00:41:45,628 --> 00:41:48,269
because we had to modernize?

725
00:41:48,788 --> 00:41:51,140
It could be that the purpose of this

726
00:41:51,159 --> 00:41:53,505
was to give us the opportunity

727
00:41:53,518 --> 00:41:56,146
to follow them without being pushed.

728
00:41:56,183 --> 00:41:58,010
And if they forced it upon us,

729
00:41:58,016 --> 00:42:01,401
we would simply worship them as gods
and we would have learned nothing.

730
00:42:02,133 --> 00:42:03,960
But by doing it ourselves,

731
00:42:04,017 --> 00:42:05,869
we form our own path.

732
00:42:05,887 --> 00:42:09,122
We actually make our
own ascension experience.

733
00:42:09,165 --> 00:42:10,574
And we become

734
00:42:10,599 --> 00:42:12,914
much more like them in the process.

735
00:42:14,609 --> 00:42:18,557
Has life on Earth been
influenced by alien encounters

736
00:42:18,808 --> 00:42:20,972
for thousands of years?

737
00:42:21,254 --> 00:42:24,483
Are divine visions, prophetic dreams,

738
00:42:24,539 --> 00:42:26,685
and modern-day UFO sightings

739
00:42:26,735 --> 00:42:29,651
all signs that we are being manipulated

740
00:42:29,657 --> 00:42:32,523
by a more advanced race of beings?

741
00:42:32,643 --> 00:42:34,756
Could it be that these encounters

742
00:42:34,762 --> 00:42:37,584
are not meant for them to get to know us,

743
00:42:37,609 --> 00:42:40,168
but for us to get to know them?

744
00:42:40,562 --> 00:42:44,197
And if so, what are
they guiding us towards?

745
00:42:44,317 --> 00:42:47,988
Perhaps we are getting closer
to our ultimate destination,

746
00:42:48,226 --> 00:42:49,577
and when we reach it,

747
00:42:49,627 --> 00:42:51,810
we will once again be reunited

748
00:42:51,985 --> 00:42:54,532
with our alien ancestors.
