1
00:00:00,700 --> 00:00:02,250
Festering disease.

2
00:00:03,100 --> 00:00:04,400
Everything was going on okay one

3
00:00:04,401 --> 00:00:06,400
minute, and then all of a
sudden, people are kind of

4
00:00:06,401 --> 00:00:07,650
rotting in front of you.

5
00:00:08,050 --> 00:00:09,250
Raging pestilence.

6
00:00:09,251 --> 00:00:12,299
The civilized world
went out the window.

7
00:00:12,300 --> 00:00:16,299
And death of almost unspeakable agony.

8
00:00:16,300 --> 00:00:19,999
Are we the laboratory of the universe?

9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,549
But what if the source
of all this very human

10
00:00:22,550 --> 00:00:26,149
suffering has a strangely
non-human origin?

11
00:00:26,150 --> 00:00:28,700
It would be narrow-minded to accept

12
00:00:28,701 --> 00:00:31,550
viruses wouldn't occur in other
planets around the universe.

13
00:00:31,551 --> 00:00:34,349
Is there somebody who
has the technology

14
00:00:34,350 --> 00:00:37,699
to actually send things
to Earth, and are part of

15
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:39,099
intergalactic warfare?

16
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:42,699
To suggest that ETs
would come here and

17
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:46,250
annihilate us in the way we
see it in the movies-- why go

18
00:00:46,350 --> 00:00:51,399
through all the trouble
when all you have to do---

19
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,799
is release a toxin into the air?

20
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,649
Millions of people around
the world believe we have

21
00:00:58,650 --> 00:01:02,799
been visited in the past by
extraterrestrial beings.

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,749
What if it were true?

23
00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:10,799
Did ancient aliens really
help to shape our history?

24
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:16,150
And could they even be the source
of our deadliest epidemics?

Portugal

27
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:53,949
October 13th, 1917.

28
00:01:53,950 --> 00:01:57,949
During what had been a
bright and cloudless day---

29
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:05,549
the skies suddenly turned
dark and foreboding.

30
00:02:05,550 --> 00:02:09,299
For those who were there to
witness it, their world was

31
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:11,450
about to turn upside down.

32
00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:14,250
Three children had claimed to

33
00:02:14,251 --> 00:02:17,150
see what they believed
was the Virgin Mary.

34
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,550
She promised to give the
people a sign from God.

35
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,050
Perhaps as many as a
100 thousand people

36
00:02:27,051 --> 00:02:32,350
watched as the sun seemed to change
into an opaque spinning disc in the sky.

37
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:41,999
During those manifestations,
children were told that

38
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,100
God was very very angry with the world,
and that there would be punishment.

39
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,050
The incident near the
small village of Fatima

40
00:02:53,100 --> 00:02:57,900
was labeled a miracle by
some and a hoax by others.

41
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,349
But to ancient astronaut theorists,
the event is considered

42
00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:05,500
an extraterrestrial encounter.

43
00:03:05,550 --> 00:03:08,549
In Fatima we see mysteries happening,

44
00:03:08,550 --> 00:03:11,499
but we do not really know whether
we are dealing with a religious

45
00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:14,550
phenomenon or whether we are
dealing with an extraterrestrial,

46
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,349
UFO kind of phenomenon.

47
00:03:16,350 --> 00:03:21,249
We know that the apparition didn't
really identify herself as who she was.

48
00:03:21,250 --> 00:03:25,650
It's within the context of religion,
that she is named the Virgin Mary.

49
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:29,050
The question is if she is not the
Virgin Mary, then who is she.

50
00:03:32,050 --> 00:03:37,800
Perhaps even more bizarre is the fact
that less one year after the event,

51
00:03:38,650 --> 00:03:42,750
an estimated 50 million
people were dead.

52
00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:46,950
Victims of the worst plague
in recorded history.

53
00:03:48,950 --> 00:03:53,950
Could this deadly pandemic,
known as the Spanish lnfluenza

54
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,150
have been somehow connected
to the incidents at Fatima?

55
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,450
Quite possible that
many of the plagues

56
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:06,000
really occurred because
alien beings came here

57
00:04:07,900 --> 00:04:11,900
and brought with them microbes
and bacteria and diseases.

58
00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:17,599
Disease has been responsible
for more deaths

59
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,550
than every war in human
history combined.

60
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,800
And right from the start, we
have looked for an answer,

61
00:04:26,350 --> 00:04:27,650
in the heavens.

62
00:04:30,350 --> 00:04:34,549
In Antiquity, when pestilence
or plague would strike

63
00:04:34,550 --> 00:04:37,300
it was very mysterious
and frightening.

64
00:04:39,250 --> 00:04:41,299
Of course people had
tried to explain it.

65
00:04:41,300 --> 00:04:47,050
The easiest way to imagine disease was
like a shower coming down from the sky,

66
00:04:48,100 --> 00:04:51,300
perhaps sent by an
angry or ruffled God.

67
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:56,999
In the mythological imagination
plagues were always

68
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:02,300
the result of the gods being
angry or upset with us.

69
00:05:05,350 --> 00:05:08,899
Examples abound in the
ancient world of diseases

70
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:11,949
being linked to the gods.

71
00:05:11,950 --> 00:05:17,449
In ancient Egypt, the god
of disease was called Seth.

72
00:05:17,450 --> 00:05:20,800
And the Hittites called
their plague god lrra.

73
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:24,500
The name means "fire" or "burning---"

74
00:05:24,650 --> 00:05:30,049
and this was their way of
explaining raging fevers

75
00:05:30,050 --> 00:05:34,449
that were something like wildfires
sweeping through the land.

76
00:05:34,450 --> 00:05:36,550
There was a conception of plague as a

77
00:05:36,551 --> 00:05:40,549
physical ailment, something that
attacks the body, but lots of

78
00:05:40,550 --> 00:05:41,900
physical ailments were conceived of

79
00:05:41,901 --> 00:05:45,750
as the result of
supernatural intervention.

80
00:05:49,750 --> 00:05:53,099
The ancient Chinese also
connected plagues and

81
00:05:53,100 --> 00:05:57,650
diseases to the supernatural,
and took it one step further.

82
00:05:58,450 --> 00:06:02,899
They kept meticulous records
about when there were outbreaks

83
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:07,849
of disease and actual
celestial events.

84
00:06:07,850 --> 00:06:11,050
They connected reports
of unusual comets,

85
00:06:11,150 --> 00:06:14,850
things that today we would call
UFOs, to outbreaks of plague.

86
00:06:15,550 --> 00:06:18,599
So, this has been universal, it's
not just have been in a few places

87
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,849
it's not just been a few plagues.
It's actually been very consistent

88
00:06:21,850 --> 00:06:22,800
throughout history.

89
00:06:24,350 --> 00:06:28,499
So many different ancient
cultures right across the world

90
00:06:28,500 --> 00:06:31,749
had this point of view that plagues

91
00:06:31,750 --> 00:06:35,300
were caused by things
that happened in the skies

92
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:44,250
Greece, 430 BC

93
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:48,249
Athens is at war with Sparta.

94
00:06:50,150 --> 00:06:53,849
The battles are brutal and bloody.

95
00:06:53,850 --> 00:06:57,499
But the war casualties pale in
comparison to the scenes of horror---

96
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,400
when plague descends on the people.

97
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,749
They were thirsty beyond thirst.

98
00:07:07,750 --> 00:07:11,399
They turned red, they vomited,
they had terrible diarrhea,

99
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,950
their fingers at times turned black

100
00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:16,599
Their bodies were ravaged.

101
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:22,299
Crates were being stacked
with 12 to 15 bodies,

102
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:27,600
and when that fails, they're just simply
left onto the street-- dead, putrid,

103
00:07:27,700 --> 00:07:32,500
decomposing bodies all over the
city, thousands of people.

104
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:41,600
But was the plague of Athens some
biological consequence of the war?

105
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,699
Or something else?

106
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,099
Something---

107
00:07:46,699 --> 00:07:47,999
not of this Earth?

108
00:07:51,050 --> 00:07:54,649
The civilized world went out the
window as soon as this plague hit.

109
00:07:54,701 --> 00:07:58,399
You can certainly correlate
plagues, epidemics, disease with

110
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,899
the decline and fall
of various empires.

111
00:08:01,900 --> 00:08:05,349
As far as the ancient
Greeks were concerned,

112
00:08:05,350 --> 00:08:10,400
the plague was very likely
a curse from the gods.

113
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,049
The wrath of God could very
well have been the wrath of ETs,

114
00:08:16,050 --> 00:08:20,200
who wanted to control us,
manipulate us, change us,

115
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,599
and they did so, in a
very deliberate evil way.

116
00:08:29,950 --> 00:08:32,849
In the middle the sixth
century, another virus

117
00:08:32,850 --> 00:08:36,600
nearly succeeded in wiping
out most of humanity---

118
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,649
the Justinian Plague.

119
00:08:42,450 --> 00:08:44,999
There aren't really good
records back then of how

120
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,800
many millions of people died, but a
significant percentage of the world died.

121
00:08:51,701 --> 00:08:53,649
You know, everything was going on okay

122
00:08:53,650 --> 00:08:55,600
one minute, and then all of a
sudden, people are kind of

123
00:08:55,601 --> 00:08:56,800
rotting in front of you.

124
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,750
Woah! like where 
does this come from?

125
00:09:03,150 --> 00:09:06,149
Like the Plague of Athens,
the Justinian Plague

126
00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:09,200
was accompanied by multiple reports---

127
00:09:09,850 --> 00:09:12,900
of strange sightings in the sky.

128
00:09:14,900 --> 00:09:17,500
People reported seeing strange
objects in the sky---

129
00:09:20,601 --> 00:09:25,999
that they called "glowing
gold shields," and visions of

130
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:31,599
bronze ships in the sky
and headless creatures.

131
00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:36,300
And whenever these events took
place, in the middle of daylight,

132
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,999
by the way, people fell ill, and
something would be witnessed

133
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,850
again, up in the sky, and there
would be another outbreak.

134
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,549
According to modern-day
astronomers, at the

135
00:09:52,550 --> 00:09:56,099
time of the Justinian Plague,
there was an unusually high

136
00:09:56,100 --> 00:09:59,299
concentration of cosmic activity.

137
00:09:59,300 --> 00:10:02,599
Islamic literature of the day was very

138
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,499
clear in stating that the skies
were darkened on many occasions

139
00:10:06,500 --> 00:10:10,049
and people were frightened
by meteor storms and comets

140
00:10:10,050 --> 00:10:12,749
impacting the Earth.

141
00:10:12,750 --> 00:10:16,899
There's also direct evidence, I
think, from a subject called

142
00:10:16,900 --> 00:10:21,299
dendrochronology-- thicknesses
of tree rings-- an indication of

143
00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:25,749
the amount of light that we
receive during the summer months.

144
00:10:25,750 --> 00:10:31,699
For the period from 530 to 550,
or thereabouts-- A.D.-- we find

145
00:10:31,700 --> 00:10:35,899
that the tree-ring
thicknesses almost vanish---

146
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:39,449
showing that the skies
were really darkened.

147
00:10:39,450 --> 00:10:43,299
That's, again, consistent with
comets breaking up, meteors

148
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:44,799
breaking up in the sky.

149
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,249
So one has to then speculate if
these dust particles that were

150
00:10:48,250 --> 00:10:52,249
darkening the skies also
contained viruses and bacteria.

151
00:10:54,650 --> 00:10:57,350
Is there somewhere,
out there in deep space, where

152
00:10:57,351 --> 00:11:00,999
somebody has the technology to
actually send over things to

153
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,949
Earth, so that what looks to be
a normal mechanism of delivery,

154
00:11:05,950 --> 00:11:09,899
actually becomes a very
high-tech method of delivery,

155
00:11:09,900 --> 00:11:14,699
and we have no idea that we
are part of an intergalactic warfare.

156
00:11:21,650 --> 00:11:26,249
The connection between deadly plagues
and phenomena in the sky appears

157
00:11:26,250 --> 00:11:29,249
frequently throughout
ancient histories.

158
00:11:29,250 --> 00:11:33,050
Most scientists today
call it superstition.

159
00:11:33,850 --> 00:11:37,950
3,000 years ago, 
they called it fact.

160
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,999
But might an ancient sculpture
discovered in 19th century Egypt

161
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,799
prove that our ancestors knew
more than we give them credit for?

162
00:11:58,900 --> 00:12:02,100
Naqada, Egypt.
1897.

163
00:12:03,050 --> 00:12:08,649
A treasure trove of ancient
artifacts sees the light of day

164
00:12:08,650 --> 00:12:12,250
after being entombed for 6,000 years.

165
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,200
Among the findings is the statue
of what looks like a bearded man.

166
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,999
It is dubbed "MacGregor Man,"

167
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,949
for the Reverend William
MacGregor, in whose antiquities

168
00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:31,149
collection it once resided.

169
00:12:31,150 --> 00:12:37,549
In Egyptology, this ancient statue
is referred to as the "Bearded Man"

170
00:12:37,550 --> 00:12:43,649
However, if you look a little
bit closer, you can see that

171
00:12:43,650 --> 00:12:47,649
what he's wearing on his head,
and what extends from his chin,

172
00:12:47,650 --> 00:12:53,849
is not necessarily a beard,
but it looks like a skullcap.

173
00:12:53,850 --> 00:12:58,749
His entire body seems to be
inside some type of an overall,

174
00:12:58,750 --> 00:13:02,249
some type of a suit, because
even where his cuffs are, there

175
00:13:02,250 --> 00:13:05,699
is no shirt opening.

176
00:13:05,700 --> 00:13:11,950
No matter from what angle, it looks
like a guy inside a hazmat suit.

177
00:13:14,550 --> 00:13:18,149
Other figures found
at Naqada also have pointed

178
00:13:18,150 --> 00:13:24,699
beards that extend from the
chin, but without any hood.

179
00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:29,449
Adding to the mystery is the
fact that Naqada was believed

180
00:13:29,450 --> 00:13:35,500
to be the ancestral home of Seth,
the Egyptian god of plague.

181
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:44,549
We don't know whether these things
were depictions of realistic apparatus

182
00:13:44,550 --> 00:13:47,349
that was used to protect,
perhaps, extraterrestrials

183
00:13:47,350 --> 00:13:53,150
from very dangerous chemicals, diseases
that they were spreading across humanity.

184
00:13:58,350 --> 00:14:04,850
If you were an extraterrestrial visitor,
you'd wear something to protect yourself

185
00:14:04,900 --> 00:14:08,499
from the bacteria and the
virus that were rampant

186
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:10,599
that is one reason for
the hazmat suits.

187
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,199
Another reason would be not to
protect yourself, but to protect

188
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,700
the population you were visiting.

189
00:14:19,700 --> 00:14:23,149
Whatever the Bearded
Man wears around his

190
00:14:23,150 --> 00:14:28,549
hips, to me looks more like
some type of a technological

191
00:14:28,550 --> 00:14:32,349
device than what 
Egyptology suggests.

192
00:14:32,350 --> 00:14:38,149
Egyptology suggests that he
is wearing a penis sheath.

193
00:14:38,150 --> 00:14:42,649
Now, to me, it is clear that
whatever is attached to his

194
00:14:42,650 --> 00:14:48,450
front of his belly is
anything but a penis sheath.

195
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:55,800
Is it possible that this is a carving
of a potential extraterrestrial?

196
00:14:57,750 --> 00:15:02,950
But among antiquities,
Macgregor Man is not alone.

197
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,949
Throughout the world, there are
scores of ancient carvings and

198
00:15:06,950 --> 00:15:11,799
figurines that seem to depict
otherworldly creatures in what

199
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,550
some claim is astronaut-type clothing.

200
00:15:15,900 --> 00:15:19,700
In Central America is
full of these suits.

201
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:25,950
You really have beings chiseled
in stone which have helmets on.

202
00:15:26,050 --> 00:15:28,800
Out of the helmet you have
something like a trunk coming up,

203
00:15:28,801 --> 00:15:32,249
and in some cases you see,

204
00:15:32,250 --> 00:15:35,800
on the shoulder of the helmet,
something like a tank.

205
00:15:40,500 --> 00:15:42,999
But strange depictions
of cloaked figures

206
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,499
wearing what appear to be
breathing apparatuses aren't

207
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:49,550
limited to the ancient world.

208
00:15:50,350 --> 00:15:56,499
In 1347, ships full of Italian
sailors died suddenly---

209
00:15:56,500 --> 00:16:03,199
after being covered in oozing black
boils filled with blood and pus.

210
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,700
The disease spread rapidly
throughout Europe---

211
00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:11,900
and soon had a name--
the Black Plague.

212
00:16:14,300 --> 00:16:18,999
The Black Plague was widely
seen as an act of God

213
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,700
for the sinfulness of the people.

214
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,699
What you get is a slow
lingering painful death

215
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:34,999
and that's what is nasty. And it 
completely decimates populations.

216
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,849
Within five years, this
previously unknown

217
00:16:38,850 --> 00:16:43,399
disease had wiped out nearly
one-third of Europe---

218
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:46,849
the equivalent, in today's
numbers, of more than

219
00:16:46,850 --> 00:16:49,449
300 million dead.

220
00:16:51,050 --> 00:16:54,799
And just like previous epidemics,
the outbreaks of plague

221
00:16:54,800 --> 00:17:00,349
were accompanied by sightings
of strange aerial phenomena.

222
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:09,749
People saw strange bronze ships
spreading a mist around the entire area

223
00:17:09,750 --> 00:17:16,550
shortly after that people began
to become very sick and die.

224
00:17:21,300 --> 00:17:25,049
Bronze ships, just like those reported

225
00:17:25,050 --> 00:17:29,200
during the Justinian
Plague 800 years earlier.

226
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,350
But what natural phenomenon
could appear in the sky

227
00:17:34,351 --> 00:17:36,600
that would fit such a description?

228
00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:41,799
And what was the mysterious mist
that people saw floating down

229
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,950
from the sky?

230
00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:47,749
If you ask a historian
today, they would say

231
00:17:47,750 --> 00:17:52,049
that they were hallucinating
because of the illness.

232
00:17:52,050 --> 00:17:58,200
But how do you get thousands of
people hallucinating the same thing?

233
00:18:02,050 --> 00:18:05,299
One of these supposed
hallucinations featured

234
00:18:05,300 --> 00:18:10,349
reports of mysterious cloaked figures
spraying mist on the ground.

235
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:18,099
It was this report that gave rise to rumors
of a black-hooded messenger of death,

236
00:18:18,900 --> 00:18:22,399
later known as the Grim Reaper.

237
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,399
In one case, the chronicle
recounts a group of

238
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:31,149
men mowing down wheat, and their
scythes were making, uh, loud

239
00:18:31,150 --> 00:18:34,699
swishing sounds, but not
actually cutting down the crops.

240
00:18:34,700 --> 00:18:37,700
We can imagine that maybe what
was perceived in medieval times

241
00:18:37,750 --> 00:18:41,299
as scythes, making swishing
sounds, were perhaps some kind

242
00:18:41,300 --> 00:18:44,699
of wand shooting some kind of
aerosol into the air, that was a

243
00:18:44,700 --> 00:18:47,450
pathogen that made
so many people sick.

244
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:53,599
People reported a number
of strange beings that

245
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,649
would spray onto the wheat,

246
00:18:57,150 --> 00:19:01,350
and shortly after that,
the Black Death occurred.

247
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,400
And maybe our idea of the Reaper
was extraterrestrial in origin.

248
00:19:11,550 --> 00:19:16,700
Mysterious plagues accompanied
by extraterrestrial sightings.

249
00:19:18,450 --> 00:19:23,000
And gruesome deaths preceded
by ominous apparitions.

250
00:19:24,450 --> 00:19:28,199
But were those strange metallic
objects seen in the skies over

251
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,849
Europe really misunderstood
cosmic events---

252
00:19:32,850 --> 00:19:38,200
like meteors and comets--- as most
mainstream scientists believe?

253
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:43,199
In 1731, there were UFO
sightings over England,

254
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,849
Ireland and Romania, and they

255
00:19:45,850 --> 00:19:51,350
predated the worldwide
flu epidemic of 1732.

256
00:19:52,750 --> 00:19:57,300
People saw a red object
in the sky, and at times,

257
00:19:57,350 --> 00:20:01,199
this object generated so much heat
that people had to take off their shirts.

258
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,699
I mean, they were just
glowing up there in the sky.

259
00:20:03,700 --> 00:20:06,850
Later on, a plague broke out.

260
00:20:12,050 --> 00:20:14,449
What people called comets
back in those days,

261
00:20:14,450 --> 00:20:18,399
we would not call comets today,
because anything that moved in

262
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:19,899
the sky that was unusual, that

263
00:20:19,900 --> 00:20:22,700
was bright, they would call it comet.

264
00:20:23,750 --> 00:20:28,150
For example, in the Chronicle of
Marvels, by Conrad Lycosthenes,

265
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,300
which was published in the
1500s, he talked about a

266
00:20:30,301 --> 00:20:35,150
comet that was seen
in Arabia in the 1400s.

267
00:20:35,250 --> 00:20:37,700
But when you look at the woodcut,
it looks like a rocket ship.

268
00:20:42,450 --> 00:20:46,050
But if alien invaders really
have been coming to Earth

269
00:20:46,100 --> 00:20:49,650
and spreading disease and
plague over the centuries,

270
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,000
why?

271
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:52,600
to kill us?

272
00:20:53,550 --> 00:20:54,500
to strengthen us?

273
00:20:55,550 --> 00:20:59,200
Or is it simply to reduce our numbers?

274
00:20:59,300 --> 00:21:02,199
Why would you drop a
virus down on this planet?

275
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,799
They're trying to build up
our immune system?

276
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,500
Are they trying to wipe us out?

277
00:21:06,750 --> 00:21:09,550
Are we the laboratory of the universe?

278
00:21:09,750 --> 00:21:13,149
"Let's see if this bug wipes
out this civilization

279
00:21:13,150 --> 00:21:15,100
in order to protect ourselves."

280
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:16,949
All possibilities.

281
00:21:16,950 --> 00:21:20,949
If extraterrestrials do
have a sinister agenda,

282
00:21:20,950 --> 00:21:27,249
why not just attack our planet
with a weapon of mass destruction?

283
00:21:27,250 --> 00:21:30,049
Why go through that
trouble if all you have to

284
00:21:30,050 --> 00:21:36,700
do is release a toxin into the air,
a plague, some type of virus?

285
00:21:36,850 --> 00:21:39,400
It's way more efficient.

286
00:21:40,550 --> 00:21:42,999
But there is another theory.

287
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,950
One more incredible than tales of
bronze spaceships and grim reapers.

288
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:54,499
Because it is a theory so simple
and so potentially devastating,

289
00:21:54,500 --> 00:21:56,349
it has mainstream scientists

290
00:21:56,350 --> 00:22:00,900
scratching their heads
and running for cover.

291
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,100
1540.

292
00:22:08,101 --> 00:22:10,449
The Rio Grande Valley.

293
00:22:10,450 --> 00:22:15,599
When Francisco Coronado and the
Spanish first explored the area

294
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:20,349
that is now New Mexico, they
brought with them a devastating

295
00:22:20,350 --> 00:22:24,349
weapon they did not even realize
was part of their arsenal--

296
00:22:24,350 --> 00:22:26,099
disease.

297
00:22:26,100 --> 00:22:31,699
Smallpox, chicken pox, and
measles spread through the

298
00:22:31,700 --> 00:22:34,699
indigenous peoples far faster
than the Conquistadores

299
00:22:34,700 --> 00:22:37,500
themselves could actually travel.

300
00:22:38,650 --> 00:22:42,649
Viruses and bacteria caused

301
00:22:42,650 --> 00:22:46,300
severe plagues that have really
changed the course of history.

302
00:22:47,250 --> 00:22:49,450
So when the Conquistadores
came over to the New World,

303
00:22:49,451 --> 00:22:53,099
they inadvertently carried small
pox, they were immune to it

304
00:22:53,100 --> 00:22:58,050
but the Native Americans had never seen
small pox and they were devastated.

305
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,549
That led to the Conquistadores
with 900 or so soldiers

306
00:23:02,550 --> 00:23:05,750
that were able to destroy
the Aztec empire.

307
00:23:05,950 --> 00:23:09,749
Hundreds of thousands of people,
maybe a million or more people,

308
00:23:09,750 --> 00:23:13,800
died simply because they were exposed
to the viruses of the white man.

309
00:23:15,700 --> 00:23:19,099
The native populations in
the American Northeast

310
00:23:19,100 --> 00:23:22,499
suffered a similar fate
when the European colonists

311
00:23:22,500 --> 00:23:25,649
first arrived on their shores.

312
00:23:25,650 --> 00:23:29,649
The islands of the South Pacific
also had their populations

313
00:23:29,650 --> 00:23:33,150
decimated by Captain
James Cook and his crew.

314
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:38,250
Are we like the other places where if
we get something we haven't seen before

315
00:23:38,350 --> 00:23:42,200
would it wipe us out
quickly for us to react?

316
00:23:43,150 --> 00:23:48,349
"The War of the Worlds" was a
beautiful story in the sense

317
00:23:48,350 --> 00:23:52,549
that, at the very end, the
common cold killed the aliens.

318
00:23:52,550 --> 00:23:55,100
Because it's too hard to believe
the other thing could happen,

319
00:23:55,101 --> 00:23:57,900
that the alien sneezed on us,
and they didn't have to do

320
00:23:57,901 --> 00:23:59,299
anything more than that.

321
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:01,799
Why is that any more farfetched?

322
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:05,100
For many ancient astronaut theorists,

323
00:24:05,101 --> 00:24:09,449
 the possibility of alien diseases
being transmitted in much the

324
00:24:09,450 --> 00:24:12,400
same way is a distinct possibility.

325
00:24:12,650 --> 00:24:17,399
My take is, if we've had diseases
since the beginning of time

326
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:22,849
and we had visitations, it's very
possible that they accidentally brought

327
00:24:22,850 --> 00:24:24,350
these diseases to us.

328
00:24:25,550 --> 00:24:29,649
Here on Earth, viruses
often thrive in new environments.

329
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:35,699
Could the same be true of viruses
entering our planet from another world?

330
00:24:36,650 --> 00:24:41,849
And if extraterrestrial viruses
do exist, could they survive

331
00:24:41,850 --> 00:24:44,499
the interstellar journey to Earth?

332
00:24:45,300 --> 00:24:50,999
Many scientists believe the answer
can be found in microscopic organisms

333
00:24:52,100 --> 00:24:54,000
called extremophiles.

334
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:57,950
An extremophile is an organism that
can survive extreme conditions.

335
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,000
High temperatures, low temperatures,
high pressure, low pressure and so on.

336
00:25:02,001 --> 00:25:07,149
Now of course, the term is based
on humans, what we find extreme.

337
00:25:07,150 --> 00:25:09,699
But from its perspective,
we are extremophiles.

338
00:25:09,700 --> 00:25:12,150
You know, we live in oxygen,
which is poisonous to this

339
00:25:12,151 --> 00:25:13,499
anaerobic organism.

340
00:25:13,500 --> 00:25:15,399
So if it was studying
us, it would say,

341
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,550
"Hey, them humans are
amazing extremophiles.

342
00:25:17,551 --> 00:25:18,949
"They can breathe oxygen."

343
00:25:19,550 --> 00:25:22,800
Life has been found on almost every
single environment on Earth.

344
00:25:22,900 --> 00:25:25,249
And this is so exciting
because other planets

345
00:25:25,250 --> 00:25:26,950
have very different
conditions from Earth.

346
00:25:26,951 --> 00:25:30,549
And it gives us hope that if life can
exist on almost any single condition

347
00:25:30,550 --> 00:25:33,750
on Earth that it can also
live on another planet.

348
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,250
Space, 2007.

349
00:25:40,150 --> 00:25:44,199
A bacteria-ridden chunk of rock
is strapped to the outside of

350
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,099
the lnternational Space Station.

351
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:52,649
After 18 months in the hostile environment
of space, the rock is retrieved.

352
00:25:52,750 --> 00:25:55,149
And one colony of bacteria
actually survived.

353
00:25:55,150 --> 00:25:57,700
And the lnternational Space
Station is in low Earth orbit.

354
00:25:57,701 --> 00:25:59,949
It's going into orbit
day and orbit night.

355
00:25:59,950 --> 00:26:01,549
It has wild temperature swings.

356
00:26:01,550 --> 00:26:06,199
It gets cosmic radiation, and the vacuum
of space, and the life still survived.

357
00:26:09,050 --> 00:26:12,049
Though many scientists
still reject the idea

358
00:26:12,050 --> 00:26:17,199
of microscopic forms of life
existing in space, even NASA

359
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,899
takes great precautions in
protecting people from any

360
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:23,450
potential alien contamination.

361
00:26:23,750 --> 00:26:25,200
When the astronauts went to the Moon

362
00:26:25,201 --> 00:26:32,899
they were in two weeks of isolation,
because the idea of dormant viruses

363
00:26:32,900 --> 00:26:37,500
on our Moon surface was
taken very seriously.

364
00:26:37,850 --> 00:26:42,150
In the same way, that ancient aliens
might have come to planet Earth

365
00:26:42,250 --> 00:26:47,499
in hazmat suits to protect themselves
and us from contamination,

366
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:49,850
so NASA does that very thing today.

367
00:26:51,250 --> 00:26:57,799
In 2006 and 2008, biologists on board
several space shuttle missions,

368
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,300
made a frightening discovery.

369
00:27:01,350 --> 00:27:09,150
Salmonella bacteria exposed to 0 gravity
actually got deadlier by as much as 700%.

370
00:27:10,150 --> 00:27:14,100
It's interesting that what they
found was that at zero gravity

371
00:27:14,750 --> 00:27:18,449
they have mutations on the
culture led to a huge increase

372
00:27:18,450 --> 00:27:23,449
in virulence of the salmonella super
bug, they do the best in terms of

373
00:27:23,450 --> 00:27:29,149
their mission to self replicate on the 
0 gravity, to me it's another indication

374
00:27:29,150 --> 00:27:32,200
that bacteria are space travelers.

375
00:27:35,050 --> 00:27:39,799
What you have is this risk
that if you are bringing in

376
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:45,049
viruses or elements from outer
space it could become a much more

377
00:27:45,050 --> 00:27:48,250
deadly form of that same germ that
initially had developed on Earth

378
00:27:48,950 --> 00:27:54,299
The ability of viruses to evolve and
mutate at an incredibly rapid rate

379
00:27:54,300 --> 00:27:59,750
was also at the root of deadliest
pandemic in recorded history.

380
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:03,050
The same one that followed
the Fatima event in Portugal,

381
00:28:03,750 --> 00:28:05,900
the Spanish lnfluenza.

382
00:28:06,050 --> 00:28:10,849
We don't know why it came, why it left.
It made World War I look puny.

383
00:28:10,850 --> 00:28:15,249
No weapons, class debarments,
nobody had raised the level for

384
00:28:15,250 --> 00:28:18,850
defense, it killed with little effort.

385
00:28:18,950 --> 00:28:23,799
Thinking in terms of today's numbers,
the 50 to 100 million people who died

386
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,400
in the course of that outbreak
would represent perhaps

387
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:30,150
300 or 400 million in today's terms.

388
00:28:30,700 --> 00:28:32,850
It was a normal influenza,
but it changed.

389
00:28:32,851 --> 00:28:34,100
It was mutated.

390
00:28:34,101 --> 00:28:36,850
We had a pandemic flu that
was killing young people.

391
00:28:36,851 --> 00:28:39,000
They were dropping dead like flies.

392
00:28:41,650 --> 00:28:44,600
Scientists more recently have
come up with this theory

393
00:28:44,650 --> 00:28:46,100
that, yeah, it must've
come from space.

394
00:28:47,050 --> 00:28:50,449
It opens the possibility that
there is a UFO connection.

395
00:28:50,450 --> 00:28:55,400
Perhaps they are managing us
in a very brutal fashion.

396
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,199
The Spanish lnfluenza eventually

397
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,199
disappeared just as quickly
as it had arrived,

398
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:06,550
fading away completely
just a year later in 1919.

399
00:29:07,450 --> 00:29:10,749
Scientists believe it had
mutated to the point it was

400
00:29:10,750 --> 00:29:13,200
no longer harmful to humans.

401
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,399
But how did this incredibly
deadly virus strike

402
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,500
simultaneously all over the globe?

403
00:29:23,050 --> 00:29:27,049
Could it have had any connection
to the strange events at Fatima,

404
00:29:27,050 --> 00:29:31,049
and the dire predictions
communicated to three children,

405
00:29:31,050 --> 00:29:33,199
supposedly from a heavenly,

406
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,000
or what some would call
an extraterrestrial source?

407
00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:47,800
September15th 2007

408
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:54,099
Residents of Carancas, Peru,
watch in fascination as a

409
00:29:54,100 --> 00:29:57,000
gigantic fireball
streaks across the sky.

410
00:29:57,950 --> 00:30:01,549
There is a loud explosion---

411
00:30:01,550 --> 00:30:06,999
and a crash that shakes
the ground violently.

412
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,399
Something large and mysterious
has fallen to Earth, causing

413
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,599
a crater that scatters debris
for nearly a mile in every direction.

414
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:23,599
Fascination turns to fear
when, just a few days later,

415
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,949
hundreds of people become
strangely and violently ill.

416
00:30:27,950 --> 00:30:33,000
An extraterrestrial fireball impacted
the ground near Carancas in Peru.

417
00:30:33,550 --> 00:30:37,300
This impact sickened a great
many people in that area.

418
00:30:42,650 --> 00:30:47,449
That was never explained by authorities
who couldn't really have an answer

419
00:30:47,450 --> 00:30:52,549
for why a meteorite strike would
cause all these people to get sick.

420
00:30:52,550 --> 00:30:59,100
Meteorites are thought to very be clean
and without bacteria or noxious gases.

421
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:06,149
Does this event suggest that
microbes and other living organisms

422
00:31:06,150 --> 00:31:10,600
not of this earth exists
somewhere in the universe.

423
00:31:12,350 --> 00:31:15,399
It would be narrow-minded to accept
that all our trillions of bacteria

424
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,699
and viruses are so unique
to take to her everywhere

425
00:31:18,700 --> 00:31:21,299
and every part of this world,
that they wouldn't occur

426
00:31:21,300 --> 00:31:25,150
in other planets or other
systems around the universe.

427
00:31:29,450 --> 00:31:31,400
The Stardust mission.

428
00:31:33,050 --> 00:31:34,350
2006.

429
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:44,399
A NASA spacecraft plunges through
the tail of comet 81P-Wild---

430
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,149
collecting comet particles on
blocks of a sticky material

431
00:31:48,150 --> 00:31:52,549
called aerogel.

432
00:31:52,550 --> 00:31:57,899
The findings stun even the
most cynical scientists.

433
00:31:57,900 --> 00:32:01,699
The Stardust detector came back
to Earth, and the particles collected

434
00:32:01,700 --> 00:32:06,050
were studied in detail and many
organic compounds were found

435
00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:10,250
including the amino acid Glycine,
which is a building block for life.

436
00:32:13,650 --> 00:32:17,399
Might asteroids and
meteors really be the

437
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,299
delivery system for alien
microbes and other

438
00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:22,200
extraterrestrial life-forms?

439
00:32:25,550 --> 00:32:29,799
Could strange germs and deadly
diseases be the result of

440
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,700
biological hitchhikers in space?

441
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:36,899
If you look at the
historical records---

442
00:32:38,900 --> 00:32:42,450
plagues come suddenly,
from almost nowhere.

443
00:32:43,650 --> 00:32:49,550
So I think comets are the natural carriers
that one could look to as to being

444
00:32:49,650 --> 00:32:52,050
the source of these epidemics.

445
00:32:54,250 --> 00:32:58,100
Comets were feared by almost
all ancient civilizations---

446
00:32:59,150 --> 00:33:02,049
as bringers of pestilence and death.

447
00:33:03,050 --> 00:33:05,150
But were they really
primitive superstitions?

448
00:33:08,100 --> 00:33:12,499
In the 1960's, Nobel
Laureate Harold Urey

449
00:33:12,500 --> 00:33:17,099
developed a new field of
science called cosmochemistry.

450
00:33:17,100 --> 00:33:21,099
He theorized that meteorites
contained the fossilized remains

451
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:23,300
of space bacteria.

452
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,649
It was dismissed almost instantly by

453
00:33:27,650 --> 00:33:32,050
a huge establishment of
American meteoritic scientists.

454
00:33:33,100 --> 00:33:36,700
There's no way, they said, argued
that life could be inside a comet,

455
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,350
and so it was sort of---
essentially swept under the rug.

456
00:33:46,150 --> 00:33:51,899
In 1996, NASA researchers,
led by David McKay

457
00:33:51,900 --> 00:33:55,699
of the Johnson Space Center,
announced that another space

458
00:33:55,700 --> 00:34:01,549
rock found in Antarctica--
meteorite ALH84001--

459
00:34:01,550 --> 00:34:05,250
contained the fossilized
remains of life on Mars.

460
00:34:05,850 --> 00:34:09,799
It must be confirmed
by other scientists,

461
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:14,200
but clearly, the fact that
something of this magnitude is

462
00:34:14,201 --> 00:34:18,599
being explored is another
vindication of America's space

463
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,399
program and our continuing

464
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,600
support for it, even in these
tough financial times.

465
00:34:27,050 --> 00:34:31,549
Even as recently as March
of 2011, NASA scientist

466
00:34:31,550 --> 00:34:36,150
Richard Hoover published evidence
of life found in meteorites.

467
00:34:37,050 --> 00:34:39,749
Richard Hoover found really stunning

468
00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:45,050
images of microscopic organisms
resembling modern organisms.

469
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:53,400
This was published in March of 2011
in the Journal of Cosmology,

470
00:34:53,800 --> 00:35:00,200
and it's caused the biggest rumpus in
science that I recall in my entire career.

471
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,550
High officials of NASA were livid,
because here was this guy

472
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:09,149
at Marshall Space Flight Center
trying to overturn a paradigm.

473
00:35:09,150 --> 00:35:12,749
If alien bacteria has
entered the Earth's

474
00:35:12,750 --> 00:35:15,799
atmosphere, could it have
been sent here deliberately?

475
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,499
Well, the answer is yes.

476
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:20,699
If they were trying to invade
a planet, they would do it by

477
00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:25,449
putting their own bacteria on
pieces of rock and making sure

478
00:35:25,450 --> 00:35:29,449
that landed on planet Earth, and
in so doing, create a series of

479
00:35:29,450 --> 00:35:33,150
violent epidemics that would wipe
out the planet's population.

480
00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:42,400
Kerala, India,
2001.

481
00:35:43,850 --> 00:35:48,799
A cosmic bang---
a massive explosion in

482
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,699
the atmosphere, and then---

483
00:35:52,700 --> 00:35:56,899
a downpour of red rain.

484
00:35:56,900 --> 00:36:01,199
It is eerily reminiscent of
ancient myths and stories about

485
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,649
blood coming down from the sky.

486
00:36:04,650 --> 00:36:08,649
Homer writes in The Iliad about
a blood rain foreshadowing

487
00:36:08,650 --> 00:36:10,149
slaughter in battle.

488
00:36:11,250 --> 00:36:15,199
Gregory of Tours witnessed a
blood rain before the outbreak

489
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,100
of the Justinian Plague.

490
00:36:18,950 --> 00:36:23,550
And in 14th century Germany,
a shower of blood reportedly

491
00:36:23,551 --> 00:36:25,099
preceded the Black Death.

492
00:36:26,300 --> 00:36:31,099
It is like the human world seeing
the effect of the immortal world

493
00:36:31,100 --> 00:36:34,899
The gods are so affected by our
lives that they are willing to

494
00:36:34,900 --> 00:36:38,200
change the laws of the physical
world so that something we

495
00:36:38,201 --> 00:36:41,600
experience as rain, in
fact, comes down as blood.

496
00:36:44,050 --> 00:36:48,599
After the incident in Kerala,
biologist Dr. Godfrey

497
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:53,400
Louis is able to collect samples
of the strange red liquid.

498
00:36:53,450 --> 00:36:55,850
He collected the rain
as clean as possible,

499
00:36:55,950 --> 00:36:58,099
and it was discovered that they

500
00:36:58,100 --> 00:37:02,350
contained cells that
looked like living cells.

501
00:37:03,350 --> 00:37:07,050
So it's some kind of organism.

502
00:37:07,150 --> 00:37:07,950
Now where's it come from?

503
00:37:07,951 --> 00:37:10,000
Does it come from space or
does it come from Earth?

504
00:37:10,001 --> 00:37:11,350
This is the big question.

505
00:37:11,850 --> 00:37:15,099
Because, of course, the
meteorite immediately puts it

506
00:37:15,100 --> 00:37:18,800
into the realms of mystery, space.

507
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:24,949
To date, there have been
no verifiable reports of

508
00:37:24,950 --> 00:37:28,000
illness connected with
the blood rain in Kerala---

509
00:37:29,850 --> 00:37:33,249
but if meteors and other
falling objects from space

510
00:37:33,250 --> 00:37:39,800
really do contain deadly bacteria,
is it simply an accident---

511
00:37:41,350 --> 00:37:45,099
or is it possible that what
we think of as natural

512
00:37:45,100 --> 00:37:51,750
phenomena are really part of another,
perhaps more insidious plan?

513
00:37:54,900 --> 00:38:01,150
In 2001, Mary Leitao, a former
hospital lab technician in Boston

514
00:38:01,250 --> 00:38:04,499
discovers red, blue,
black, and white

515
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:08,450
fibers in sores under her
two-year-old son's lip.

516
00:38:12,050 --> 00:38:15,799
Eight different doctors are
unable to find any disease,

517
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,749
allergy, or anything unusual

518
00:38:18,750 --> 00:38:21,400
that might be causing
her son's condition.

519
00:38:22,650 --> 00:38:25,750
Today this condition has a name--

520
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,550
Morgellons disease--

521
00:38:27,750 --> 00:38:31,349
And according to the Morgellons
Research Foundation,

522
00:38:31,350 --> 00:38:38,800
it has affected more than 12,000 families
from all 50 states and 15 other countries.

523
00:38:40,650 --> 00:38:44,449
No one knows what Morgellons
is, it appears to be

524
00:38:44,450 --> 00:38:48,549
a brand new arrival in the medical scene.
To have Morgellons disease,

525
00:38:48,550 --> 00:38:51,650
is to live a waking
nightmare without end.

526
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,600
To the best of my knowledge, there
have been no cures to Morgellons.

527
00:38:55,601 --> 00:38:58,550
And partly I think it's because
we don't know what the cause is.

528
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,149
A physician who's trying to
treat a patient with Morgellons

529
00:39:02,150 --> 00:39:04,550
is pretty much just
shooting in the dark.

530
00:39:05,350 --> 00:39:10,199
Sufferers of the mysterious
disease complain of

531
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,500
neurological problems similar
to multiple sclerosis

532
00:39:15,550 --> 00:39:20,100
and massive oozing skin rashes
that seem to have a life of their own.

533
00:39:20,350 --> 00:39:23,449
The overt dermatological
symptoms would be

534
00:39:23,450 --> 00:39:29,449
open sores on the skin-- usually round,
volcanic almost looking in nature.

535
00:39:29,950 --> 00:39:32,049
Most people with
Morgellons have crawling

536
00:39:32,050 --> 00:39:33,949
sensations in their skin.

537
00:39:33,950 --> 00:39:36,650
Sometimes they describe it as
almost as though something is

538
00:39:36,651 --> 00:39:39,700
inside there, biting or stinging.

539
00:39:42,350 --> 00:39:45,700
Inside the lesions,
sufferers have discovered

540
00:39:45,701 --> 00:39:50,250
colored fibers, like those
found on Mary Leitao's son.

541
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,950
You wouldn't believe how
many dermatologists have

542
00:39:52,951 --> 00:39:54,950
gotten phone calls and e-mails
from, saying, "Sorry, humans

543
00:39:54,951 --> 00:39:56,499
don't grow red and blue fibers."

544
00:39:56,500 --> 00:39:59,499
Well, as a physiologist, I'm
quite aware of that fact, but it

545
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:03,649
doesn't change the fact that
these fibers are present, and

546
00:40:03,650 --> 00:40:06,300
this mystery is, well, where
are the fibers coming from?

547
00:40:06,301 --> 00:40:10,449
Is there a microorganism that
is producing these fibers?

548
00:40:11,250 --> 00:40:13,799
We have absolutely no idea.

549
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,599
The university forwarded
a number of samples to

550
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:21,399
the Tulsa Crime Lab, who ran
them through their database, the

551
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,100
FBI database, were unable
to find any match.

552
00:40:30,550 --> 00:40:32,950
The earth is being bombarded
by tons of debris from

553
00:40:32,951 --> 00:40:38,049
outer space every year, and so,
is it possible that an organism

554
00:40:38,050 --> 00:40:40,700
that we wouldn't recognize came
down with that debris, and

555
00:40:40,701 --> 00:40:42,849
that's the cause of Morgellons?

556
00:40:42,850 --> 00:40:46,099
Well, I just try and
stay open-minded.

557
00:40:46,100 --> 00:40:48,450
We can't really say yes,
we can't say no.

558
00:40:50,750 --> 00:40:53,700
But what is the cause
of Morgellons disease?

559
00:40:54,350 --> 00:40:59,050
Is it simply an Earth-based
mutation of a known virus?

560
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:04,800
Or does it have other, perhaps
interplanetary origins?

561
00:41:05,150 --> 00:41:09,750
If we look at something that
came from a distant planet

562
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,249
it's so different, that it
could do anything from

563
00:41:13,250 --> 00:41:18,135
makes us better, makes us the same, or
in the long run, create a new disease.

564
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:24,749
Or maybe it doesn't produce disease,
because diseases don't just produce fever,

565
00:41:24,750 --> 00:41:29,599
headache, it may change our thought
process, our reality, how we

566
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:34,350
move, how we think, how long
we live, even our emotions.

567
00:41:36,050 --> 00:41:39,150
Living microbes in outer space.

568
00:41:40,950 --> 00:41:46,749
Bacteria capable of mutating and
becoming more powerful in zero gravity.

569
00:41:47,550 --> 00:41:51,550
Comets carrying deadly,
alien life-forms.

570
00:41:53,150 --> 00:41:58,099
Could humankind be at the mercy
of extraterrestrial forces that

571
00:41:58,100 --> 00:42:00,600
are invisible to the naked eye?

572
00:42:01,900 --> 00:42:05,300
The best estimates that I've heard
are the number of bacteria in the world

573
00:42:05,395 --> 00:42:11,595
is something in the range of 5 followed
by 30 zeroes, it is a staggering number.

574
00:42:11,596 --> 00:42:14,596
We're discovering more
and more all the time.

575
00:42:16,497 --> 00:42:19,197
The real question is this--- who
is really leading the world?

576
00:42:19,198 --> 00:42:25,398
Us or the trillions and trillions of
viruses that we walk upon, and may be

577
00:42:25,399 --> 00:42:28,699
playing a much more intimate part
of our lives that we ever thought.

578
00:42:28,794 --> 00:42:32,994
Is it possible that we somehow
are being prepared for something

579
00:42:33,095 --> 00:42:36,695
which is going to affect Earth
as a global civilization.

580
00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:42,449
It's, somehow, is very important
that we are strong enough so

581
00:42:42,450 --> 00:42:45,900
that we will be able to cope
with something which might be

582
00:42:45,901 --> 00:42:47,350
coming our way?

583
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:49,750
The more you know all the details,

584
00:42:49,751 --> 00:42:52,950
the more frightening the thoughts
are about what's coming next.

585
00:42:52,951 --> 00:42:56,199
The clock begins when the
disease hits, and we don't know

586
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,800
how much time 
the clock is giving us.

587
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,700
That's the fear of the future.

588
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:06,149
For thousands of years,
we have wondered if we

589
00:43:06,150 --> 00:43:10,949
are alone in the universe, but
could alien life-forms have been

590
00:43:10,950 --> 00:43:14,299
among us all along?

591
00:43:14,300 --> 00:43:18,099
If countless strains of deadly
bacteria are coming to Earth

592
00:43:18,100 --> 00:43:23,949
from other worlds, is this the
proof we need that there is life

593
00:43:23,950 --> 00:43:27,049
on other planets?

594
00:43:27,050 --> 00:43:30,999
Could it be only by coincidence
that these life-forms have made

595
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:36,550
contact with us in the form
of plagues and epidemics,

596
00:43:36,750 --> 00:43:43,149
or is there another, perhaps
alien, intelligence at work--

597
00:43:43,150 --> 00:43:46,450
an intelligence which seeks
to reduce our numbers

598
00:43:47,650 --> 00:43:50,150
or maybe prepare us for something

599
00:43:51,451 --> 00:43:55,551
If so, what and when.
