Throughout the ancient world, there were tales of mortals
and immortals. In Christian traditions,
in Islamic traditions,
and Hindu traditions,
you have these divine beings who live forever.
Could these stories be accounts of alien visitors
who traveled to Earth from thousands of lightyears away?
Imagine an advanced civilization
that has interstellar travel.
If they can travel through the stars, they could
stretch their longevity maybe even to centuries.
And if humans are to one day
colonize other planets, will we too need to discover
the key to immortality?
What our extraterrestrial ancestors
have wanted us to do
is be like them.
They want us to be a spacefaring race that goes to the stars.
And to live these extended lives where
we become essentially immortal.
There is a doorway
in the universe.
Beyond it is the promise of truth.
It demands we question everything
we have ever been taught.
The evidence is all around us.
The future is right before our eyes.
We are not alone. We have never been alone.
The Ashmolean Museum of art and archaeology.
Among the hundreds of historic artifacts on display
is an ancient Sumerian cuneiform text.
Dating back to at least 2000 BC,
the four-sided clay document is a list of kings
who lived far longer than the average human life span.
In the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford,
there's an astounding artifact.
It's referred to as WB44,
the Sumerian Kings List.
On one panel, it tells us about eight kings
that ruled over five cities, and what's astounding about this
is the length of the reigns of these kings.
One king is said to have ruled for 43,200 years.
Another king rules for 28,000 years.
It's astounding.
Curiously, the Sumerian Kings List is not the only ancient record of rulers
who lived for centuries.
A curious document was found in a tomb
in Luxor,
and it's called the, uh, Turin Kings List.
We only have fragments of this document,
but what this document lays out
is that many of the really early
Egyptian pharaohs had lives
that were many hundreds of years,
and that some of these pharaohs lived for 700, 800, 900 years.
We have a similar story in the Bible of Methuselah and that he's said to have lived
for 969 years.
So, how is it that people are able
to live such great ages?
Is it merely coincidence
that in three different ancient traditions
there are records of their earliest leaders
living impossibly long lives?
Curiously, in all three cultures, it was
also recorded that, during the time when people lived
to these incredible ages, humans shared the Earth
with beings who came down from the sky.
The ancient Egyptians referred to
a-a time called the first time,
when the gods walked among men.
Ancient Egyptian creation mythology tells us that these
original god beings came from the stars.
This sounds very much like the arrival of the Anunnaki,
the divine lords of light of the Sumerian tradition when they arrived atop Mount Kerzok.
It's also virtually identical to the arrival of the Watchers.
The Watchers are the angels
of the Old Testament.
They are the fallen angels
who came to Earth
and intermingled with humans.
The Watchers, like divine beings
in many other ancient cultures,
were referred to as immortals, but often
they were described as having very humanlike traits.
There were 200 of these Watchers,
and they were led by, uh,
an individual named Samyaza.
They shone.
There was a translucence.
There was an aura about them that was as bright as the Sun.
But they seem to be more human in their appetites
than one would like to believe.
They're hungry, they eat, they want affection, they lust.
I think that the Watchers most definitely
are extraterrestrials who came to Earth.
Countless ancient, original cultures
speak of a time when the gods
descended from the sky
and mingled with people to impart their knowledge.
Ancient Egypt,
ancient China,
ancient Sumeria,
ancient Japan,
ancient Greece.
And so, I think the different cultures
were visited by the same teachers,
who were extraterrestrials.
Could it be
that the earliest human civilizations
shared the Earth with visitors from another world?
And if so,
is this somehow connected to the ancient records
of people who lived extraordinarily long lives?
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest an important clue
can be found in a famous verse
from the Bible that is often mistranslated.
In many English versions of the Book of Genesis,
chapter one, verse 27 states
that "God created man in his own image."
But in the original Hebrew,
instead of "his" image, it says "our" image.
God says in Genesis, "Let us make man in our image."
Well, you have to say, "Well, who is 'our'?
Who-who are the other people there?"
Well, the word "God" in Hebrew is "Elohim," and that is plural.
If you look at the original Hebrew
in which the sentence was written,
all of a sudden you have the truth
because, according to the ancient astronaut theory,
someone came and someone altered our DNA
in order for us
to become humans
and essentially gave us more intelligence.
ERICH VON DÄNIKEN: Practically every culture,
including our Bible, says, "In the beginning,
God," in the plurals, "created
humans according their own image."
I'm a deep believer in God,
but God is something gigantic,
spiritual, not explainable.
In my opinion, when you read the Bible,
it's all about extraterrestrials.
Part of ancient astronaut theory
is that what our extraterrestrial
ancestors have wanted us to do
is be like them.
They want us to achieve
the same things that they achieved.
The goal was, some thousands of years
in the far future,
this humanity should be able to construct spaceships
to spread out in the universe again.
If Homo sapiens were genetically engineered
by extraterrestrial space travelers
to one day become like them
and seed life on other planets,
what might this mean for the future of the human race?
Some experts have suggested that interstellar travel
will only be possible when science finds a way
to dramatically extend the human life span.
Maybe our generation,
with new developments in technologies,
will be living to the mid-100s, 150,
maybe even up to 200 in the next few decades.
So, imagine an advanced civilization
that has interstellar travel.
Certainly, if they can travel through the stars,
they could stretch their longevity
maybe even to centuries.
Could it be that the ancient people
referred to the gods as "immortals"
because they encountered space travelers who lived for thousands of years?
And if so,
is it possible that there are records
of early rulers living for centuries
because these visitors somehow extended their life spans?
It was natural for people
in those days
to live a life close to a thousand years,
but we're talking about those who interacted
with these beings from the stars. Are these things connected?
We're talking about an age in which otherworldly beings assist humankind in becoming
very much like the gods.
But if our ancestors from deep antiquity
were so close to becoming like their extraterrestrial creators,
as ancient astronaut theorists suggest,
what kept them from realizing this destiny?
And are humans today still on the same path? Perhaps further clues can be found
by examining a story shared by different cultures
all over the world,
the story of the Great Flood.
The Bible's Book of Genesis.
In chapter six, verse nine begins the story of Noah and the flood,
in which God sends a great deluge
to cleanse the Earth, which has become overrun by sin.
It is one of the most well-known tales from the Bible,
but, curiously, nearly identical stories
exist in dozens of other ancient traditions.
We've heard about the flood of Noah,
which wiped out that whole generation and brought
about a new generation of descendants of Noah.
The fact is,
there's all these stories of the Great Flood
in all countries across the world.
Plato talked about Atlantis.
He talked about a whole civilization
destroyed by floods.
In the Bible,
Turkey, in Egypt,
among the Native Americans,
there's a story
that the Great Flood wrapped around the entire planet.
All life was destroyed.
The connection between the biblical story
of the Great Flood and the destruction of other societies around the world
through floods tell us one thing.
There actually was a Great Flood
and that, at one point
in the history of this planet,
all life was wiped out
as the Earth was covered in water.
VON DÄNIKEN: In all mythologies, including the Bible, some gods are coming down
and teach the human a great flood
will come and destroy you.
And these god, they knew it long before,
and they knew it because
they themselves made the Great Flood.
The Great Flood was created by extraterrestrials on purpose.
Could the story of the Great Flood
be a historical record of a real event
that was brought on by extraterrestrials?
But if the ancient astronaut theory is correct,
and aliens genetically engineered humankind,
why would they then destroy their greatest creation?
We have the records, as described in the Book of Enoch
and other literature,
that the Watchers led to the moral corruption
of all humanity,
which led to the destruction of the face of the Earth.
They were introducing hidden technologies
centuries before they were meant to be introduced. They corrupted the human gene pool.
In Genesis six,
we hear about the sons of God. They see the daughters of men,
and they lust after them, and they come down,
and they take them as wives.
And then they create a hybrid race called the Nephilim.
You weren't supposed to fraternize with the natives,
but this is what we are told in the Bible.
Now, what are we to make of these texts?
Are we to say, "Well, maybe these angels,
"these sons of God, did they have sex
the old-fashioned way?" We don't know, but we need to start
looking at these stories from a 21st century perspective.
With the technology that we have with genetic engineering
and splicing genes and what have you,
maybe we can revisit this story and look
at it from maybe an extraterrestrial,
uh, hypothesis or point of view.
They're creating a hybrid race.
The DNA of the off-world intelligence
and the human DNA
creates this hybrid race, and most
of these beings, for better or for worse,
had what we could call superhuman powers.
As far as ancient astronaut theorists
are concerned, a genetic upgrade occurred.
One that closed the gap between mortals and immortals
far more quickly than was intended.
And it is a story that, once again,
was told across many cultures.
When the sons of God procreated with
the daughters of men, it is said that
mighty ones were born.
They had a longer life span as well,
dating maybe centuries,
up to a thousand years-- not immortal
but a life span much, much longer than ours.
When you look back at ancient Egyptian history,
the pharaohs themselves were said to be demigods.
Part-god, part-human.
This was present in the Greek imagination.
The Olympians were known to get involved in the world
of the mortals, and they would intervene sometimes.
Sometimes they would get attracted to a mortal
and children would come. Hercules, Perseus.
These are the offspring, demigods, half-god, half-human.
But in many of the ancient stories,
the gods who were responsible for this upgrade of humanity
were acting against the wishes of their superiors.
They were not just helping to jumpstart human civilization
but creating a new race of immortals.
Enoch, who's the scribe of God,
says that these angels went against the will of God.
Now, you can imagine those angels were
extraterrestrial in origin.
If there was a prime directive, they violated it.
They gave us gifts,
and we weren't ready for those gifts.
It's like giving a gun to a baby.
Nothing good will happen.
Maybe the extraterrestrials
were protecting humanity,
and humanity is considered a sacred project,
and they know that, while they begun it thousands of years ago,
it would take thousands or perhaps tens of thousands
of years for humanity to reach its ultimate fulfillment, but they were committed ultimately
to the sacredness or the fulfillment of the project.
And this is why they restarted civilization.
As far as ancient astronaut theorists
are concerned, the story of Noah and his family being saved from the flood
shows that Earth's extraterrestrial
visitors did not abandon their plan for humankind.
As further evidence, they cite a 2,000-year-old text
called the Zohar, that continues the Biblical
story of the Watchers after the cataclysm
that ended the previous age of humans.
The Zohar says that there's a great secret
about the angels who walked with us on Earth.
The Watchers. They ascended to the stars,
and they are the ones who come back and shepherd us,
watch over us. They watch over humanity
and direct the course of our civilization.
I think that the extraterrestrials
never left. Why?
Because, according to the ancient astronaut theory, we are their offspring.
They made us Homo sapiens sapiens, what we are today.
If you have such a creation,
I don't think you would just abandon that. We are a long-term project.
If the first humans shared the planet with alien visitors,
as ancient astronaut theorists suggest,
is it possible that
these otherworldly beings have remained on Earth for thousands
of years, continuing to direct the course of humanity?
And if humans were designed to ultimately
achieve immortality, just how will that happen?
Perhaps further clues can be found by examining a strange substance discovered
on Easter Island.
Lying over 2,000 miles off the coast of Chile,
this remote landmass is famous for the nearly 1,000
monolithic stone statues called moai found along its coastline.
For ancient astronaut theorists,
the enormous statues,
along with the local legends that say
they represent giant beings
who came down from the sky, present a compelling case
for Easter Island being a place
of extraterrestrial visitation.
And what has made this notion even more
intriguing is the discovery that the island's soil
contains a substance called rapamycin
that might be able to extend the human life span.
In 1968, a remarkable
substance was found, a kind of bacterial substance
called rapamycin, and it was given that name
because it was found on Rapa Nui, or Easter Island,
which in itself is very interesting.
And what they found was it could actually help
when people had organ transplants to stop them rejecting them,
but it could also help in cancer therapies as well.
Then they found that it had very strong anti-aging properties.
It would almost reverse aging in certain medical situations.
Rapamycin has already been shown
to extend life span and improve health in mice,
and in 2018,
researchers at Texas A&M
began testing the substance on dogs.
While there is still much to learn about the effects
of rapamycin,
scientists are hopeful that it
could prove to actually reverse aging on a cellular level.
Is it a coincidence that rapamycin was found on Easter Island?
Where there's possible alien visitations?
We don't know. In fact, one question to ask is, what
do the aliens do to live
very long lives themselves? Do they take certain substances?
Could it be that the anti-aging substance found
on Easter Island was left behind by alien visitors
who used it as a way to extend their life spans? In numerous ancient traditions,
there are stories of the gods possessing elixirs
of immortality
and sometimes sharing them with humans.
There are many ancient cultures
that had their own food and drink
that could bring immortality. For instance, in China,
there was the peaches of immortality
that were given out by the goddess known as
the Old Mother of the West.
These were given to the immortals of China
to quite literally allow them to live
for eternity.
For the Greeks, it's this nectar ambrosia,
literally the food of the gods, that, if you consume that,
then you yourself will be divine.
In the Vedas, you have this drink--
uh, soma-- and the same idea,
that this is what feeds the gods and keeps them alive and immortal.
Then, if we humans eat that food,
these substances will keep us alive forever.
If these gods were, in fact, alien visitors,
could it be that they were able to achieve immortality
simply by ingesting some type of plant or drug?
Some ancient astronaut theorists suggest that substances,
like ambrosia, were merely symbolic devices
representing the gods' ability to extend their lives.
And they believe this was accomplished using the same
technology that scientists are developing today,
gene splicing.
A team of scientists working with a gene-manipulating
technology known as CRISPR
at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT
makes a groundbreaking discovery. By editing specific genes in mice,
the researchers were able
to double the life spans of their test subjects.
CRISPR, you can think of it like
we can cut and snip out pieces of our DNA.
And if we can discover, for example,
part of our genetic code that has to do with aging,
we can maybe cut it out,
or we can add things into the genetic code
that might extend life
to potentially create a human that could live forever.
If we could rewrite the DNA code,
in principle we can live forever.
Already we've been able to slice and dice that for a mouse,
and eventually we'll do it for a human.
While it remains to be seen if CRISPR technology
will succeed in increasing the human life span...
...some scientists believe the key to immortality
may be found by studying a strange sea creature
that has the ability to live forever.
So, one thing in nature that seems
to be immortal is the immortal jellyfish,
where it can actually revert to an earlier state when damaged or at risk
and then regrow back into the adult state.
The cells of all animals begin as stem cells,
which then develop into organs, muscles, bones,
and whatever else the organism needs.
The jellyfish species Turritopsis dohrnii,
commonly known as the immortal jellyfish,
can take mature adult cells and turn them back into stem cells,
allowing the jellyfish to, in effect,
start its development all over.
So you're really reversing the biological
timeline and then resetting it going forward,
so that you're actually not only living longer
but you're also younger. And thinking about how these things
get reversed, to me, is an intriguing way
to approach the biology and the immortality.
By understanding species
like the immortal jellyfish
and through the technology of gene editing,
might we greatly extend the human life span?
And could extraterrestrials have used
similar means to achieve immortality,
allowing them to travel great distances through space? It often seems to me
that we live in a time
of rediscovery,
meaning that the fact that we
come up with ways with which to improve
and prolong our lives,
extraterrestrials have figured that out long ago.
But while scientists are optimistic that the human
life span can be lengthened through genetic engineering,
many aerospace experts believe that biological
bodies are simply not equipped
to withstand the rigors of extended space travel.
They suggest that,
if humans are to one day colonize
other planets, it will require merging man
and machine.
In a press conference organized by a UFO investigative group called the Disclosure Project,
former Army Sergeant Clifford Stone makes a shocking announcement.
He claims to be part of a top secret military unit
once tasked with recovering extraterrestrial craft
and their pilots for the U.S. government.
I was involved in situations where we actually
did recoveries of crashed, of crashed saucers,
for lack of a better term, debris thereof.
There were bodies that were involved with
some of these crashes. Also, some were alive.
While we were doing all this, we were telling
the American public there was nothing to it.
We were telling the world there was nothing to it.
Sergeant Stone would later describe
a specific mission in which he learned that the pilot of
an extraterrestrial craft was "a biological robot."
So, what he found was, is that these so-called
Grey aliens with the skinny bodies and giant
heads were like biological robots.
They-they had few organs.
They had all this machinery and computing inside them,
and he really questioned what this was all about.
And the conclusion was that they must have been created
to travel huge distances from their planet to this planet
because, if they were just a biological entity, they simply would not have survived.
Could it be that Earth is being visited
by alien entities that are part machine?
Is this why the ancient people referred to the gods as
immortals, because they were not entirely
biological beings and appeared to never age? As further support for this notion,
ancient astronaut theorists
point to a strange figure that appears in 18th century France,
the mysterious Count de Saint-Germain.
The Count de Saint-Germain is
probably one of the most enigmatic
gentlemen of human history.
He was an adventurer, he was a scientist,
he was a composer.
He knew several languages,
yet, strangely, he always
was the same age
whenever anybody saw him.
One of the most interesting stories
about the count was that when he was at a social gathering
he met an old woman, and the old woman said,
"I met you 60 years ago when I was a young woman,
and you looked in your 40s then, same as you do now."
He hadn't aged.
Another thing that people talk about was that he had
so much knowledge of history and of science.
He knew a lot of the leaders and kings.
Throughout his reportedly very long life,
the Count de Saint-Germain befriended many noblemen
and rulers, who he was believed to have great influence over.
In the mid-1700s
he was a diplomat for King Louis XV,
and in the 1760s
he traveled to Russia
and he was complicit in the overthrow
that put Catherine the Great in place as the czar of Russia.
It was rumored that he later advised
the Russian imperial commander in the war against
the Turks, which the Russians ultimately won.
He's supposed to have died
in 1784, but there were
reported sightings of him just the following year
entering into a Masonic lodge in France,
where his name was actually noted there and then.
He was reportedly at the beheading
of Marie Antoinette several years later.
And there are many other reports
of his presence
all the way around the world in the 19th century.
In addition to appearing in historical records long after he
was alleged to have died, it was said by many who knew
the Count de Saint-Germain that he had odd habits
and possessed extraordinary abilities.
One of the strange things about him were his dietary habits.
He'd sit with other people as they ate,
but he wouldn't eat with them.
One of Count Saint-Germain's contacts in the 18th century was
Casanova, who said he had an ability to melt diamonds,
that he had amazing abilities and powers.
He thought that he was an incredible superhuman type of person.
So, if Saint-Germain
had lived centuries, and he was an alien from the past,
certainly when you look at aliens,
who are thousands of years in advance of us,
they could have had alterations genetically or mechanically
that would allow them to live a very long time.
Is it possible that the Count de Saint-Germain
was an extraterrestrial entity that was part robotic,
much like the Grey alien that Sergeant Clifford Stone claims to have examined?
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that such a scenario
is not so far-fetched considering that today
we are already creating robots that are
incredibly humanlike in their appearance. One of the most cutting-edge
is a Hanson Robotics creation named Sophia.
What is absolutely mind-blowing
about Sophia and other robotic entities is,
it's not hard to imagine a population
of extraterrestrials creating humanoid robots
like the ones that we're building today.
Probably even more advanced.
And it makes a lot of sense for us to send robots into space
instead of flesh-and-blood bodies.
If it makes sense for us, it probably
makes sense for extraterrestrials as well.
If the ancient astronaut theory is correct
and humankind was created to follow in the footsteps
of its extraterrestrial creators, will that mean merging man and machine?
According to some scientists,
that process is already underway.
Located just four miles west of the Pentagon
is the headquarters
for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency,
better known as DARPA. Since 2002, DARPA has been
investing hundreds of millions of dollars in its
brain-machine interface program for the U.S. military.
The technologies they're developing allow
humans to control mechanical devices
with their minds.
There are these brain-computer
interfaces where we can implant electrodes in the brain.
And, for example, you can control a prosthetic limb
by just using your thoughts
with these brain-computer interfaces.
The chip records activation in your brain.
It sends that information to a computer, which then
sends that to, let's say, a prosthetic limb to control it.
This is certainly a good way to extend lives
when the brain is not the part that's failing, but
it's the rest of the body that's failing.
'Cause you can actually now imagine human, sort of metal robotic cyborg
combinations where your brain is
now not just controlling maybe your biological body
but something artificial and man-made.
You give this technology another
50 years, and we will appear as god beings
to a person living at the beginning of the 20th century.
So, let's now look back at the extraterrestrial
gods of the ancient world.
They must have had at least the level of technological
sophistication that we are enjoying and experiencing today,
probably even more advanced.
I think it's fascinating where we are
in this moment in time because
what if, one day, we can create
artificial human beings?
And, in fact, we are merely rediscovering
what has happened already a long time ago.
As far as some ancient astronaut theorists
are concerned, merging biology and
technology is an important
first step in becoming like our alien ancestors.
But they believe the extraterrestrial beings
that people have reported encountering on Earth
may be merely avatars,
vessels for intelligences
that can move from one body to another.
What if they're digital beings?
Or light beings? We have numerous stories
that tell us that the god beings were
originally light beings that could then phase into a physical
flesh-and-blood form and then phase back into
their light body form when they want to travel the stars. We hear the story of the Anunnaki,
the divine lords of light of the Sumerian tradition...
...or the arrival of the Watchers,
the lords of light who descended upon Mount Hermon.
The stories of Vishnu actually describe Vishnu
having many manifestations of himself as other gods.
He would come to our reality as a different god.
He came to Earth many different times as many
different people and had adventures and activities
and then he would go back into the heavens as Vishnu.
The aliens could be avatars.
They can withstand all the rigors of outer space
because they are part biological and part mechanical
but controlled by an alien consciousness
in a different star system.
While the notion of a conscious being that
can move from one body to another may sound far-fetched,
humankind is working towards
realizing this technology right now
by attempting to map the human brain.
Whole brain emulation is the ability
to create a carbon copy of the brain itself.
Already, by slicing and dicing the brain of a fruit fly,
we've been able to catalog all the connections
of a fruit fly's brain
up to 100,000 neurons.
Think about that-- every single connection of the brain
of a fruit fly mapped using computers
by slicing and dicing the brain.
Now, the human brain is much more complicated. A hundred billion neurons,
with each neuron connected to
10,000 other neurons, but in principle
that's also possible to create an exact copy
of the brain to map every single neuron
of the brain
using transistors rather than neurons.
And it would, in principle,
be identical to who you are.
It would have access to all your memories,
all your dreams, all your foibles,
all your mannerisms.
It'll take, of course, decades
to give you that kind of accuracy, but it is doable.
Once scientists can completely replicate a human brain
through whole brain emulation,
then that information can be uploaded to a computer
to digitally represent a person's consciousness.
Could it be that extraterrestrials who already
possess this capability have come to Earth
by uploading their consciousness into artificial bodies?
There are some theoretical physicists
who say not only is this possible
but that this is how humans will eventually leave the planet
and travel the stars.
August 27, 2019.
Space X announces the successful test flight of its starship prototype Starhopper.
The founder of the private aerospace company,
billionaire Elon Musk, has also been at the forefront
of efforts to upgrade humankind.
It is his belief that both pursuits are critical
to ensuring the survival of the human race.
It's interesting that, today,
we have these adventurer billionaires like Elon Musk,
and they want to put computer chips in our brains,
even map our own consciousness and put
that in a robot or cyborg,
and they're wanting to go into space at the same time.
So, in many ways,
they're like the
alien explorers who came here in the past.
I think with known technologies,
we can theorize, that is, within 100, within 200 years,
we're talking about fusion rockets and antimatter
rockets capable of reaching the stars.
And then I think we'll be sending
robots into outer space that are actually avatars.
I personally think this is the future of the space program,
and I think we will do this using laser beams. If we can digitize the human brain,
we can put that knowledge on a laser beam
and shoot it to the Moon.
In one second,
you are on the Moon.
In 20 minutes, you could be on Mars.
In four years, at the speed of light,
you could reach the nearby stars.
And what would you do?
If that laser beam goes to the Moon, is then downloaded
into an avatar,
that avatar could withstand gravity fields,
poisonous gases, radiation from the Sun.
And in fact, I'll stick my neck out.
I think this already exists.
I think this is the preferred way
for an advanced alien species to explore the universe.
In fact, near the Earth,
there could be a digital highway
with the digitized souls
of billions of aliens going across the Milky Way Galaxy.
So I think when we meet aliens from outer space,
we should not be surprised if they're actually avatars that are controlled by
the aliens in a distant star system.
As entrepreneurs
continue to invest billions in pursuit
of both space travel and whole brain emulation,
are we getting closer to becoming like the immortals
our ancestors described thousands of years ago?
And if these immortals were responsible for the creation
of the human race,
as ancient astronaut theorists suggest,
could this evolution be exactly
what they intended for humankind all along?
Why would extraterrestrials come to Earth and start a human project,
knowing that it would take thousands of years
for us to, to develop?
Well, it could perhaps be that extraterrestrials
have a different perspective of time than we do.
If we think of the extraterrestrials
as immortal, time is irrelevant.
And their goal is to assist humanity to become more like them.
There's a potential that humanity is going to become
a starfaring nation that has long life
because you're gonna need that for some of these long journeys.
And we might become more like the gods that seemed to
live for thousands of years and traveled the heavens.
Is humanity on the verge of becoming
an intergalactic civilization?
And if so, is it possible that we
were set on this path by an extraterrestrial race
that visited Earth thousands of years ago?
Perhaps one day, the immortal gods
seen descending from the sky
on a distant planet...
will be us.
