[Narrator] Ancient knowledge that defies explanation...
[Travis Taylor] How in the world did ancient people
understand the age of the Earth
thousands of years ago?
[Narrator] ...stories of otherworldly visitors...
[David Childress] Hindu mythology
is filled with powerful beings
who have advanced technology.
[Narrator] ...and links to an extraordinary society
forgotten by history.
[Andrew Collins] The Indus Valley Civilization
was incredibly complex and advanced.
And yet, we knew nothing about it.
[Narrator] Could it be
that the earliest writings of India
contain the secrets of our alien past?
[Giorgio A. Tsoukalos] All of these ancient stories
are rooted in reality.
They didn't write it down because it was ordinary,
they wrote it down because it was extraordinary.

[Narrator reads on-screen text]
Home to more than 1.4 billion people,
it is the world's most populous country.
And roughly 80% of the people living here
belong to the world's oldest surviving religion...
...Hinduism.
[Amir Hussain] There's a huge diversity
within the Hindu tradition.
There's no one way to be Hindu.
There's ideas that are important in Hinduism.
One of the things that distinguishes Hinduism
from other religions is there's not just one life to live,
there are multiple lives.
You're born, you live,
you die, you're reborn.
[Sravana Borkataky-Varma] We believe in the continuous cycle
of birth and death.
So, this life is not about just the actions here.
I have carried something from the past to this life.
[Narrator] The spiritual goal of all Hindus is to gain freedom
from the endless cycle of reincarnation.
This occurs by following the concepts
of dharma and karma.
[Hussain] People know the term karma and dharma
in Hinduism.
The idea that, you know, every energy
releases a particular action, that's karma.
Dharma, everyone has a particular duty,
something to follow, uh, in their lives.
How you live affects how you're reborn in the world to come
or the next life or the next life or the next life.
A lot of it is about human action,
what is it that you're supposed to do?
This is a way to gain liberation
from the cycle of death and rebirth.
[Narrator] Exactly when and where
the Hindu religion originated is a mystery,
but the oldest known source is a collection
of Sanskrit texts called the Vedas.
[Dominic Steavu] The word Veda means "knowledge" in Sanskrit.
And so, there is this close association
with a special type of, uh, wisdom or knowledge
that is transmitted through the Vedas.
[Narrator] The Vedas teach that the information
contained within them was communicated directly
from the gods to people known as seers.
[Deepak Shimkhada] The seers were the conduits,
and once they were able to download the information,
they passed it on to their disciples,
and that's how we got to know about
the mysteries of the universe.
[Narrator] In addition to concepts
like reincarnation and karma,
the Vedas describe a vast pantheon of Hindu deities.
Among them are the three major gods:
Brahma,
Vishnu and Shiva.
Brahma is the god of creation,
often depicted with four heads and four arms, riding a swan.
The blue-skinned Vishnu
is the preserver and protector of the universe.
And Shiva is both the god of destruction and rebirth,
depicted with a third eye.
But they are just three
of literally millions of Hindu gods.
[Shimkhada] Hinduism has
330 million gods.
There are equal number of female goddesses.
So, it has many, many gods and goddesses.
[Narrator] According to Hindu tradition,
at various times in history, these powerful beings
have lived alongside humans.
[Praveen Mohan] The gods show
various emotions of intelligent life.
They get angry, they get depressed,
they go to war...
...and cause great destruction.
They fall in love and get married.
Sometimes, they even get married
to human beings and give birth to demigods.
[Narrator] When they are not on Earth,
the gods reside in other realms called lokas.
[Borkataky-Varma] Lokas are different worlds.
There are seven worlds above us
and then there are seven worlds below us.
And if you also take this as present loka,
that would make it 15.
And different worlds have different habitants of sorts.
[Narrator] While there are millions of gods
in the Hindu pantheon,
many people choose just one specific god to venerate.
Idols of these beings are often kept within the home
and treated as living family members.
And the idea of communicating with the gods
dates back thousands of years.
In the ancient stories of the Vedas,
the gods interact with humans,
guide them and are vital in the development of civilization.
[William Henry] In the Hindu tradition,
the gods came to Earth
and influenced human affairs.
And what's fascinating about this is that
we find exactly the same story
in ancient Mesopotamia,
where we're told that the Anunnaki gods
taught us the basics of civilization.
We find this in other cultures, as well--
Ancient Egypt, for example.
Mesoamerica, we find sky beings
who came to Earth, altered humanity.
So, what we're seeing here is a-a parallel
that we find in traditions all around the world.
[Narrator] Today, the more than one billion Hindu faithful
maintain a strong relationship with the gods
described in the ancient Vedic texts.
[Mohan] In the Hindu tradition,
these ancient gods are not considered
just symbolic or mythical beings.
They are considered as flesh-and-blood beings
that came down from the sky and existed in real life.
[Tsoukalos] According to the ancient astronaut theory,
all of these ancient stories of Hindu gods
are rooted in a type of reality
that they, at some point, witnessed.
[Narrator] A key tenet of the ancient astronaut theory
is that religious traditions around the world were inspired
by interactions that our ancestors had
with extraterrestrial visitors.
And Hinduism is perhaps the most compelling of all...
...because the stories of the gods
read like accounts of otherworldly beings
with advanced technology.
[Childress] Hindu mythology really reads like
the wildest science fiction of today.
It is filled with all kinds of demigods
who had airships that they called vimanas,
and very sophisticated weapons
that would destroy whole cities if need be.
[Narrator] While most mainstream scholars
regard these stories as metaphorical,
many Hindu faithful regard them as accounts of real events.
[Henry] We have to be open to the possibility
that the Vedas describe
eyewitness accounts of these strange beings
that came out of the sky thousands of years ago.
[Narrator] Could the Vedas and other early Hindu texts
provide a historical record
of extraterrestrial contact in the distant past?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and suggest further evidence can be found
by examining the incredible technology
of the gods.
[Narrator] For more than 3,000 years,
the foundation of Hinduism has been carefully preserved
in India's most ancient Sanskrit texts.
The oldest are the four books known as the Vedas,
but there are additional manuscripts
that expand on these teachings.
[Hussain] In addition to the Vedas,
you have the epics.
And the two great epics are the Mahabharata,
literally, "the-the great story of Bharat."
Bharat's an ancient name for "India."
Then you've got the Ramayana.
[Narrator] Many of the events that occur in the epics
feature the Hindu gods, who are divided up
into separate classes.
The highest are the devas,
that include the trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva,
as well as other prominent Hindu gods
like Ganesha, Hanuman and Indra.
[Henry] When we look at the-the sacred texts
of the ancient Hindus, they describe
humanity's interaction with the devas,
and that they then begin to teach humanity how to use
all kinds of things, like making weapons
and astronomy and the stars and so forth.
[Narrator] Curiously, Hindu accounts of the devas
are nearly identical to a race of divine beings
found in mythological texts across the world.
In Sanskrit, devas literally means "light beings,"
or "the shining ones."
This immediately brings to mind stories of the Tuatha Dé Danann,
who are a divine race of beings in Irish mythology.
Like the devas, the Tuatha Dé Danann
are described as light beings
who descended from the sky in whirlwinds
and brought with them the arts and knowledge of civilization.
Also, the Anunnaki, who were the sky gods
of the ancient Sumerians, were similarly described
as having a luminous appearance.
So, we have to ask the question, is it possible
that the beings described in the Vedas
are the same beings that came to Earth,
visited numerous cultures in the ancient world,
and this is exactly what the ancients
recorded throughout time?
[Narrator] For ancient astronaut theorists,
one of the most compelling aspects of the Hindu stories
is that the gods travel in flying machines called vimana,
which are described in great detail.
[Tsoukalos] The vimanas are aerial vehicles that were able
to travel faster than what the eye could see,
or they could cloak themselves to become invisible.
To me, those are not spiritual vehicles.
Why would God need a vehicle
with which to move from point A to point B?
But they're, in fact, technological vehicles.
Vehicles that our ancestors saw in physical form,
and tried to describe what they witnessed.
[Childress] These were machines
that could fly, they would hold different people,
there were pilots.
The vimanas themselves would have weapons,
just like modern fighter aircraft
and bombers and things like that.
And the vimanas were brightly lit,
and that's talked about in the Mahabharata,
that people would see giant lights in the sky.
There's a number of Vedic texts that are talking about vimanas,
and some get very technical, in fact.
One of the things that it talks about is an engine
that has mercury in it.
[Taylor] There's been a lot of
speculative physics work done on creating
flowing baths of mercury in a vortex
where it's spinning around,
and you put it in the right electromagnetic field
and it creates strange torsions
such that you could create a propulsive force.
And I find it really intriguing that the vimanas,
the way-- some of them are described for flying in air,
some of them are-are described as being used in water.
A lot of this reminds me of videos that I've analyzed
of modern UAP.
[Tsoukalos] Modern-day UFO videos show vehicles
that can just stop or change direction immediately,
at g-forces that we could not survive.
In the ancient Vedic texts,
the exact same descriptions exist.
They are not only aerial vehicles
but also vehicles with which to reach the realm of the gods.
And you have to ask yourself, "Well, wait a second,
what did they try to describe here?"
The answer is that the ancient Hindus tell us
that they were actual, physical machines.
For all intents and purposes, they describe modern-day UFOs.
[Narrator] Could it be that UFOs witnessed today
are the same otherworldly aircraft
described in writings that date back more than 3,000 years?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and suggest further clues can be found
in passages of the Sanskrit texts
that describe highly advanced weaponry.
[Shimkhada] In the Mahabharata, there are listed
47 different types of weapons.
Agneyastra is a weapon that releases extreme fire,
and burns everything in front of it.
Sudarshana Chakra is a weapon held by Vishnu himself.
It is a total guided missile.
It never misses the target.
Indra is the god of the storms,
no different than Zeus.
Indra has the vajra--
it's like the thunderbolt of Zeus--
that can destroy anything that it's unleashed on.
[Childress] If these weapons really existed,
where did they originate?
The extraterrestrials would naturally have
this kind of advanced technology.
[Narrator] If the foundational texts of Hinduism
describe real encounters with extraterrestrials
that took place thousands of years ago,
the question remains:
Who were the people that witnessed these events
and wrote them down?
While the authors of the Vedas and epics are still unknown,
many experts suggest important clues can be found
within the ruins of an incredible
lost civilization.
[Narrator] The Punjab Province of British India, 1921.
Indian archaeologists are conducting a survey
in the Indus River Valley,
an area that today is largely uninhabited desert
and considered one of the most inhospitable places on Earth.
While exploring the area,
the archaeologists are astonished to find the ruins
of ancient mudbrick buildings emerging from the soil.
And what they discover hidden beneath the earth
is more extraordinary than they ever would have expected.
[Shimkhada] As they dug, they saw some pottery,
some structures and buildings.
It was discovered that it was an archaeological site,
and it's a very advanced civilization.
[Narrator] Over the next two years,
two lost cities are unearthed in the Indus Valley
that date to as far back as 3300 BC,
predating the earliest known civilizations in India
by almost 2,000 years.
Archaeologists name the first city Harappa,
after a nearby town,
but the second city they call Mohenjo Daro,
or "Mound of the Dead Men."
The ancient city is strewn with the skeletons of people
who seem to have died suddenly from some unknown catastrophe.
But what surprises archaeologists even more
is how advanced these cities were.
[Childress] Mohenjo Daro and Harappa were
incredibly sophisticated,
much more than what early archaeologists ever expected.
The streets were very well laid out and planned.
They had indoor plumbing.
They had what we would call a modern sewage system.
They had communal baths that were extremely well made.
[Collins] Archaeologists gradually revealed
this incredibly complex
society that had existed during the third millennia BC,
one which rivaled anything
that you would have had
in Sumeria or Egypt at this time.
And yet, we knew nothing about it.
[Narrator] Researchers determined that Harappa
and Mohenjo Daro were part of an advanced civilization
that spanned the entire Indus Valley.
At its peak, the Indus Valley civilization
had more than one thousand cities,
and was home to over five million people.
[Shimkhada] There is the ruins from Harappa all the way
to Lothal down there in Arabian Sea.
So the whole area was a very advanced civilization.
They made a lot of
artifacts, tools,
potteries.
And they were exported all the way to the Middle East.
So it was very successful.
[Narrator] The culture thrived for at least 1,400 years
before it suddenly collapsed around 1900 BC.
But what happened to the Indus Valley civilization?
And who were the people who lived there?
We don't know what language they spoke.
We don't know when they actually got there,
where exactly they came from,
because they didn't leave a record saying,
"Hi. We came from this place,
we spoke this language,
and we built this at this point in time."
[Narrator] While very little is known
about the Indus Valley civilization,
many experts have come to believe
that the inhabitants were the authors of the Vedas.
[Borkataky-Varma] We don't necessarily know
who the people were.
But here is where
the scholars have kind of stitched this history.
Given the period, given the geographical region,
given what we have discovered in the archaeology,
it is understood that the Vedas has some degree
of dotted-line continuity to the Indus Valley civilization.
[Narrator] Could it be that the foundational texts
of Hinduism were written by the people
of this lost civilization?
Over the years, researchers seeking evidence
that the Vedas are based in real history
have found numerous archaeological sites
that match locations described in the ancient stories.
[Shimkhada] Today, Indian archaeologists are
working vigorously,
you know, digging up the ancient cities
and the places mentioned in the Ramayana, in the Mahabharata.
They're all in North India, where the original inhabitants
of Indus Valley lived.
So, there is the real places and
the historical facts that can be corroborated
with some artifacts.
[Narrator] As far as ancient astronaut theorists
are concerned, if the Vedas originated
in the Indus Valley civilization,
it begs the question:
Are they historical accounts of real events?
[Henry] When we look at this civilization
and then its crossover into ancient Sanskrit texts,
it becomes abundantly clear we have to be open
to the possibility that the Indus Valley people
were interacting with extraterrestrials.
They actually witnessed the gods.
They saw the vimana.
And what that means, then,
is that the very powerful traditions of Hinduism
are actually remnants of the Indus Valley civilization.
[Narrator] Is it possible that Hinduism--
the world's third largest religion--
was inspired by alien contact
that occurred more than 4,000 years ago?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and point to a discovery at Mohenjo Daro
that many believe depicts a visitor...
from another world.
[Narrator reads on-screen text]
[Narrator] British archeologist Ernest Mackay
undertakes an extensive excavation
of the ancient Indus Valley city of Mohenjo Daro.
Over the next few years, Mackay and his team unearth artifacts
that reveal the sophistication of the people who lived here,
such as finely detailed pottery,
elaborate jewelry and bronze statues.
But of all the artifacts uncovered during the excavation,
the one Mackay considers most extraordinary
is a small stone tablet that he estimates
to be more than 4,000 years old.
[Henry] It depicts a figure sitting in a lotus pose
and wearing a horned headdress.
He appears to have three faces.
One looking to the left, one looking to the right
and one straight ahead.
This is a common motif you see in Hindu art
that depicts the gods as being all-knowing.
Now, Ernest Mackay is amazed by this seal
because he believes it depicts the Hindu god Shiva.
[Narrator] Shiva is one of the three primary Hindu gods,
known as both a destroyer and creator.
If the carving found at Mohenjo Daro depicts Shiva,
as many experts believe,
it would be an extraordinary discovery,
because it would mean that Hinduism is centuries older
than previously thought.
[Henry] The seal dates to before
2000 BC, and most mainstream scholars say
the Hindu religion didn't emerge until centuries later.
So, when we see artifacts
from Mohenjo Daro depicting Shiva,
what that means, then, is that the very powerful traditions
of Hinduism are actually remnants
of the Indus Valley civilization.
[Narrator] For many researchers,
the mysterious carving that resembles Lord Shiva
provides a compelling link
between the Indus Valley civilization
and the Vedic texts.
But along with the intriguing artifact,
archaeologists at Mohenjo Daro were also confronted
by a disturbing sight.
[Henry] As they're excavating the city, layer
by layer, and they got down to the street level,
people were just lying dead in the streets.
It's like some doom just took over the city,
and everyone was dead,
and then, eventually, the desert winds buried it
for thousands of years.
[Collins] What they discovered was quite shocking.
There were a number of human bodies
that looked like they had been killed very suddenly.
I mean, some of the skeletons looked like
they had fallen together and had died instantaneously.
And this led archaeologists
to the conclusion that something terrible had gone on here.
[Narrator] Exactly what caused the sudden devastation
at Mohenjo Daro has divided historians for decades.
But if Hinduism was practiced by the Indus Valley civilization,
as many experts now suspect,
might the foundational Vedic texts provide clues
about what happened at Mohenjo Daro?
In 1977, British researcher David Davenport
posed this same question, and set out
to conduct his own investigation of the ancient city.
[Collins] David Davenport
spent 12 years at Mohenjo Daro, researching it,
working with the excavators,
asking all the right questions,
looking at the artifacts that were discovered,
going around the remains of the streets,
and what he discovered was that there seemed
to be absolute evidence
of intense heat
that had melted pottery, made it incredibly brittle.
The sides of some buildings seem to be virtually vitrified.
[Narrator] Davenport also read reports that claimed
one of the skeletons at Mohenjo Daro had high levels
of radiation.
Intrigued, he decided to search in the pages
of the ancient Sanskrit epics
to see if they might contain any mention
of a catastrophic event.
What he found instead was a description
of a powerful weapon called the Brahmastra.
[Hussain] Brahmastras
are these really superpowerful weapons.
It's literally the astra-- the weapon-- of Brahma.
Brahma is one of the key gods in the Vedic tradition.
And so, the Brahmastra is this horrific weapon
that destroys gods.
[Narrator] The Brahmastra weapon features prominently
in the story of the god Rama.
Rama mobilizes an army to rescue his wife
who is held captive in the kingdom of Lanka.
In the ensuing battle, Rama unleashes the Brahmastra...
...and Lanka is destroyed.
[Henry] David Davenport looks at the Ramayana
and realizes that the effects of what he sees in Mohenjo Daro
precisely match what is told in this epic
about this blinding flash of light
that destroys the civilization.
What David Davenport proposed is
that Lanka is Mohenjo Daro.
And in all ways and shape and form,
this Brahmastra has all of the hallmarks
of an atomic weapon.
[Narrator] Is it possible that Mohenjo Daro was destroyed
by a nuclear explosion, as David Davenport suggests?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and believe further evidence to support this notion
can be found in passages of the Sanskrit epics
that describe a war
between the gods.
[Narrator] In 1979,
British researcher David Davenport
published his incredible theory
that Mohenjo Daro is, in fact,
a city described in the ancient Sanskrit texts
that was destroyed by a devastating weapon.
In addition to radiated skeletons and vitrified stone,
he pointed to a 50-yard crater in the center of the city
as evidence of a massive explosion.
[Collins] David Davenport suggested
that what had gone on here related
to what the ancient Hindu texts were referring to
as some kind of weapon of mass destruction.
It could create flashes as bright as the sun.
It could lay waste to armies.
And this led Davenport to the conclusion
that Mohenjo Daro had been destroyed
by an atomic weapon.
[Narrator] Could nuclear weapons really have been deployed
on Earth thousands of years ago?
As incredible as it sounds,
ancient astronaut theorists suggest
the evidence is too overwhelming to dismiss.
Is it possible that some type of a nuclear weapon was deployed
at Mohenjo Daro?
And the answer to that is yes.
Because not only do you have higher levels of radiation,
but you have fused glass.
You have people that just died instantaneously.
And then you also have references in ancient texts
where they say that right after these weapons were deployed,
people started to have boils on their skin.
Their hair started to fall out.
Their fingernails started to fall out.
Well, those are all results of radiation poisoning.
Nuclear fallout.
[Narrator] According to some experts,
it wasn't just Mohenjo Daro,
but the entire Indus Valley civilization--
made up of more than a thousand cities--
that suddenly collapsed.
And ancient astronaut theorists point out
that this once again lines up with the Sanskrit texts,
where numerous devastating wars are waged between the gods.
[Childress] There were these horrific wars
that are talked about in the Vedas themselves.
There are essentially
very powerful beings who have powerful weapons.
And they're all fighting
and destroying, you know, each other.
[Martell] The gods had these aerial battles, so,
it's very possible that the civilization
in the Indus Valley had firsthand interaction
with some of the events that took place.
[Tsoukalos] This whole idea
that there were these wars
within the Vedas, to me, is interesting
because this is not just restricted to ancient India.
You have wars in Heaven in the Old Testament.
-You have the ancient Greeks. -[thunder crashes]
You have ancient Scandinavian gods fighting with each other.
So, in my opinion,
those were all misinterpretations
of flesh-and-blood extraterrestrials
who fought with one another.
[Martell] In lots of these ancient stories,
there were various gods that are all squabbling over Earth.
And right over the Indus Valley,
this ET battle might have taken place and could have ended
in some type of catastrophe
that wiped out the civilization in the Indus Valley.
[Narrator] When David Davenport proposed a link
between Mohenjo Daro and the Vedic texts in the 1970s,
he was widely dismissed by mainstream scholars.
But today, more and more experts believe
at least some of the ancient stories are based
on real events,
and that those events occurred in the Indus Valley.
[Childress] When you look at the Indus Valley,
you have to wonder what happened to this civilization.
And archaeologists, when they excavate these cities,
they fit perfectly into the Vedic stories
of these ancient wars.
So could it be that it was destroyed
by terrific weapons,
and, essentially, ceased to exist?
That's exactly what the Vedic stories are saying.
[Narrator] If the foundational Sanskrit texts of Hinduism
can solve the mystery of what happened to Mohenjo Daro,
might they also reveal that the ancient people
of the Indus Valley really did interact
with otherworldly beings?
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
and suggest additional evidence can be found
by examining the passages within the Vedas
that describe advanced knowledge
that came from the stars.
[Narrator reads on-screen text]
On the campus of the University of Kerala
is the Oriental Research Institute.
It maintains one of the largest collections
of ancient Indian literature,
including more than 40,000 rare palm leaf manuscripts.
Among them are versions of the Ramayana,
and some of earliest known copies of the Vedas--
the oldest religious documents in existence.
[Borkataky-Varma] We don't necessarily know
who the people were that wrote them.
But we're talking about oral transmission, oral history.
And we're talking about thousands of years
of transmission.
[Narrator] These mysterious texts have fascinated people
for centuries with their incredible stories
of gods and other celestial beings.
And in the modern world,
their significance has become even more profound,
because the Vedas contain incredible knowledge
that seems to line up perfectly with today's science.
[Henry] The Vedas describe the universe
as originally being a single point
of consciousness that expanded,
out of which all of creation emerged.
This is virtually identical to what modern science
refers to as the big bang theory,
the idea that all of creation was once a single point of light
that exploded and expanded into space.
[Narrator] The Hindu scriptures also state the age of the Earth
with remarkable accuracy.
[Taylor] The ancient Vedic texts,
they discuss a concept called the day of Brahma.
And it's a discussion about the age of the Earth.
It actually says the Earth
is 4.3 billion years old.
How in the world do they know this? Because
our modern, technological assessment suggests
that the Earth is about 4.5 billion years old.
So, how in the world
did they understand the age of the Earth
thousands of years ago?
[Narrator] The ancient Sanskrit texts even contain concepts
eerily similar to Einstein's theory of relative physics.
[Childress] In the Vedas, they have the concept
that time travels differently in different realms,
and that is the same as
Einstein's concept of relativity,
where time is relative to where you are
and what realm you are in and that kind of a thing.
So, once again, we can see
how astonishingly advanced Vedic thought is.
[Henry] We have to seriously consider
that this knowledge was extraterrestrial in origin,
that it was taught to these ancient seers.
It was something that was offered to them wholesale
by beings who already knew the secrets of the universe.
[Tsoukalos] They knew that the universe was expanding.
They knew that other dimensions and other universes existed.
So how did they know this? Well,
in the opinion of the ancient astronaut theory,
the knowledge was imparted by visiting extraterrestrials.
[Narrator] When considering the advanced knowledge
that exists within the Vedas-- alongside the Vedic stories
that seem to line up with ancient ruins--
could it be that these writings were,
in fact, inspired by extraterrestrials?
And if so, were they witnessed
by the people of the Indus Valley?
The Indus Valley civilization is still a mystery,
but the evidence they've left us,
as far as their footprint,
with an understanding of technology,
an understanding of the cosmos,
this shows that they could have come up
with some of these advanced concepts we see in the Vedas.
[Childress] What I really think is important here is
that we pay more attention to these ancient texts
and try to learn what we can from them,
because it's clear that modern Hindu civilization in India
goes back to the Indus Valley civilization.
But does the Indus Valley civilization go back
to, possibly, early extraterrestrial visitors?
That is the question.
They have the exact same stories,
as, for example, the Sumerians had,
who talk about physical deities
that descended from the sky and imparted knowledge.
Now, the Indus Valley civilization
is the exact same way.
And the most ancient of Vedic texts had scientific knowledge
that far surpassed, at the time, what was known.
[Narrator] Was ancient India an epicenter
of extraterrestrial contact?
Do the incredible mythological tales of the Vedas
tell the story of humankind's true history?
And if so, could the extraordinary ruins
of the Indus Valley reveal new information
about our interaction
with extraterrestrials in the distant past?
Perhaps written among the secrets of the Vedas
is the ultimate proof of our alien origins.
