All of these are spherical. 62 00:03:33,708 --> 00:03:36,708 And if you look deeper, at the microscopic level, 63 00:03:36,875 --> 00:03:39,333 at the atomic level, you have the same patterns 64 00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:42,333 of spheres as very important building blocks. 65 00:03:42,542 --> 00:03:44,833 So, this fascination with spheres 66 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,208 might be a reflection of this. 67 00:03:47,250 --> 00:03:49,667 What could explain why ancient people 68 00:03:49,833 --> 00:03:53,292 all over the world fashioned spheres out of stone? 69 00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:57,958 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining a discovery 70 00:03:58,125 --> 00:04:01,250 made deep in the jungles of Central America 71 00:04:01,375 --> 00:04:04,875 that defies explanation. 72 00:04:07,250 --> 00:04:11,417 Southwest Costa Rica, 1939. 73 00:04:12,417 --> 00:04:15,292 Workers with the United Fruit Company 74 00:04:15,417 --> 00:04:18,292 begin clearing the rainforest near the Diquis Delta 75 00:04:18,417 --> 00:04:20,250 for a new banana plantation. 76 00:04:21,375 --> 00:04:23,708 While making their way through the dense vegetation, 77 00:04:23,875 --> 00:04:28,000 the workmen find dozens of giant stone spheres. 78 00:04:29,458 --> 00:04:33,042 They started to find these massive stone spheres 79 00:04:33,208 --> 00:04:35,500 that they had no clue why they were there. 80 00:04:36,667 --> 00:04:39,500 The instruction for them was, if you find anything, just move it. 81 00:04:39,625 --> 00:04:41,333 And they just started to move them. 82 00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:43,875 But they just kept appearing. 83 00:04:44,875 --> 00:04:49,708 In 1943, the archeological journal American Antiquity 84 00:04:49,875 --> 00:04:52,458 published photos of the mysterious spheres, 85 00:04:52,625 --> 00:04:54,125 which caught the attention 86 00:04:54,292 --> 00:04:57,875 of American archaeologist Dr. Samuel Lothrop. 87 00:04:58,042 --> 00:05:02,667 Five years later, Dr. Lothrop led an excavation of the area 88 00:05:02,833 --> 00:05:06,458 and discovered hundreds of stone spheres. 89 00:05:06,667 --> 00:05:10,208 They range in size from just a few inches 90 00:05:10,375 --> 00:05:12,000 to more than six feet in diameter, 91 00:05:12,167 --> 00:05:14,667 and weigh up to 15 tons. 92 00:05:14,833 --> 00:05:18,583 Archeologists soon discovered stone spheres 93 00:05:18,750 --> 00:05:22,958 throughout the Diquis Delta, and on the nearby Isla del Ca�o. 94 00:05:24,125 --> 00:05:25,667 Many were found with artifacts from 95 00:05:25,875 --> 00:05:28,500 the ancient Indigenous Diquis culture, 96 00:05:28,708 --> 00:05:31,958 and are believed to be at least a thousand years old. 97 00:05:33,250 --> 00:05:35,958 About 300 have been discovered so far. 98 00:05:36,125 --> 00:05:39,042 Some of them are fairly small, like the size of footballs. 99 00:05:39,208 --> 00:05:40,792 Others are huge, 100 00:05:40,917 --> 00:05:44,667 between eight and nine feet tall and wide. 101 00:05:44,833 --> 00:05:48,083 Some have carvings on, like spirals... 102 00:05:49,458 --> 00:05:52,375 and what looks like boats or ships. 103 00:05:52,583 --> 00:05:55,750 They look like they're created in a machine. 104 00:05:56,875 --> 00:06:00,333 Researchers believe the stone that the spheres are carved from 105 00:06:00,542 --> 00:06:03,000 is not local to the Diquis Delta, 106 00:06:03,167 --> 00:06:05,042 but was transported from a quarry 107 00:06:05,208 --> 00:06:08,542 that was located more than 50 miles away. 108 00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:11,542 The quarries of this material 109 00:06:11,708 --> 00:06:14,000 are allegedly found at least 110 00:06:14,208 --> 00:06:16,125 a few dozen kilometers from the site 111 00:06:16,292 --> 00:06:18,833 where the spheres are located. 112 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,917 So that brings us questions of transportation. 113 00:06:22,875 --> 00:06:25,833 Walking around the rainforest is not an easy task. 114 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,750 You have creeks, you have mountains, you have hills, 115 00:06:28,875 --> 00:06:31,375 you have branches, you have tree roots. 116 00:06:31,542 --> 00:06:34,000 So how were they moved? 117 00:06:34,125 --> 00:06:38,542 Just as puzzling as how the massive objects were moved 118 00:06:38,708 --> 00:06:40,333 is how they were made. 119 00:06:40,542 --> 00:06:44,333 Archeologists believe that the Diquis civilization 120 00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:47,625 carved the spheres with simple stone tools. 121 00:06:48,667 --> 00:06:51,333 But some researchers argue that creating 122 00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:54,333 such a precise shape would be difficult to achieve, 123 00:06:54,500 --> 00:06:56,583 even with today's technology. 124 00:06:57,625 --> 00:06:59,625 It's important to note that these are, 125 00:06:59,750 --> 00:07:01,958 in some reports, granitic, which are very, 126 00:07:02,125 --> 00:07:05,542 very hard rocks to shape, to form, to move, 127 00:07:05,750 --> 00:07:08,792 and to quarry in any capacity. 128 00:07:08,917 --> 00:07:11,583 If we wanted to make these same spheres, 129 00:07:11,750 --> 00:07:13,708 we would need something harder than granite. 130 00:07:13,875 --> 00:07:16,542 And there are very few substances that are harder. 131 00:07:17,708 --> 00:07:19,167 What's noteworthy is some of them are 132 00:07:19,333 --> 00:07:20,542 almost perfectly spherical. 133 00:07:20,708 --> 00:07:22,458 And that's a very tall task 134 00:07:22,625 --> 00:07:25,375 to create that with the tools of the time. 135 00:07:25,542 --> 00:07:28,292 As a stonemason, I would use diamond saws, 136 00:07:28,458 --> 00:07:30,667 I would use polishing items. 137 00:07:30,875 --> 00:07:33,167 But when you look at Indigenous people 138 00:07:33,375 --> 00:07:35,042 that were purported to have made them, 139 00:07:35,208 --> 00:07:37,295 did they have those machines, did they have that equipment, 140 00:07:37,375 --> 00:07:38,625 did they have that technology? 141 00:07:40,208 --> 00:07:42,750 How could a culture that only had access 142 00:07:42,917 --> 00:07:46,375 to stone chisels and rudimentary tools have carved 143 00:07:46,542 --> 00:07:49,708 and transported such enormous stone spheres? 144 00:07:49,875 --> 00:07:54,167 And what could have been their reason for doing so? 145 00:07:54,375 --> 00:07:56,208 Since the United Fruit Company 146 00:07:56,375 --> 00:07:57,958 started moving the spheres, 147 00:07:58,125 --> 00:08:00,542 we do not know the original location of most of them. 148 00:08:00,708 --> 00:08:03,667 You start to wonder, what if we could go back in time 149 00:08:03,833 --> 00:08:06,667 and see the exact location of all the spheres? 150 00:08:06,792 --> 00:08:09,333 What would they show? Would they show a pattern? 151 00:08:09,542 --> 00:08:11,500 Would they show a constellation map? 152 00:08:11,625 --> 00:08:13,875 Would they be like the Nazca lines? 153 00:08:14,083 --> 00:08:16,167 Like a pattern that you could only see from above? 154 00:08:17,750 --> 00:08:20,667 Although documentation to explain the spheres 155 00:08:20,875 --> 00:08:23,458 does not exist, according to local legend, 156 00:08:23,583 --> 00:08:26,750 they were created by the gods. 157 00:08:28,458 --> 00:08:32,000 One very interesting explanation for the Costa Rica spheres is 158 00:08:32,208 --> 00:08:34,750 that they were created by Tara, the god of thunder, 159 00:08:34,875 --> 00:08:38,917 who used some sort of a blowpipe to shoot these spheres 160 00:08:39,083 --> 00:08:42,250 out of the pipe in order to push back hurricanes. 161 00:08:44,875 --> 00:08:47,542 Ancient astronaut theory says that within legends like this, 162 00:08:47,708 --> 00:08:49,500 there's often a kernel of truth. 163 00:08:49,625 --> 00:08:51,583 And so you have to wonder, 164 00:08:51,708 --> 00:08:53,667 is this a calling card 165 00:08:53,833 --> 00:08:55,458 from some extraterrestrial entity, 166 00:08:55,583 --> 00:08:58,792 a sky god, Tara, with some sort of message? 167 00:08:58,958 --> 00:09:04,500 To me, the ancient legend of the god of thunder illustrates 168 00:09:04,708 --> 00:09:08,208 an example of misunderstood technology. 169 00:09:08,375 --> 00:09:13,458 Clearly those spheres themselves never descended from the sky. 170 00:09:13,667 --> 00:09:18,583 But maybe our ancestors saw 171 00:09:18,750 --> 00:09:24,292 the appearance of a spherical craft by the extraterrestrials 172 00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,208 who visited us thousands of years ago. 173 00:09:28,833 --> 00:09:31,958 Was the creation of the mysterious stone spheres 174 00:09:32,125 --> 00:09:36,542 found in Costa Rica inspired by an extraterrestrial event, 175 00:09:36,667 --> 00:09:39,000 as ancient astronaut theorists propose? 176 00:09:39,208 --> 00:09:43,667 And if so, just what, exactly, do they represent? 177 00:09:44,833 --> 00:09:47,875 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining 178 00:09:48,042 --> 00:09:52,208 the largest stone spheres ever discovered. 179 00:09:56,917 --> 00:10:01,333 Zavidovici, Bosnia, 1999. 180 00:10:02,250 --> 00:10:07,833 Archaeologist Dr. Sam Osmanagich and a small team of researchers 181 00:10:07,917 --> 00:10:10,083 are hiking along the Bosna River 182 00:10:10,208 --> 00:10:13,500 when they come upon an astonishing sight. 183 00:10:13,667 --> 00:10:17,333 In the midst of the dense forest are massive boulders 184 00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:21,167 that do not appear to be part of the natural landscape. 185 00:10:22,625 --> 00:10:25,500 We discovered six of them intact, 186 00:10:25,667 --> 00:10:29,042 perfectly preserved and perfectly spherical. 187 00:10:30,250 --> 00:10:33,292 To Dr. Osmanagich, the near-perfect shape 188 00:10:33,417 --> 00:10:34,875 of the objects is compelling. 189 00:10:36,250 --> 00:10:38,500 And he begins to comb the region in search 190 00:10:38,708 --> 00:10:40,375 of other stone spheres. 191 00:10:40,542 --> 00:10:42,833 We have been researching 192 00:10:43,042 --> 00:10:47,917 the stone spheres in Bosnia for 25 years, 193 00:10:48,083 --> 00:10:52,875 and we have discovered 20 different locations. 194 00:10:53,875 --> 00:10:56,125 The stone spheres in Bosnia come 195 00:10:56,292 --> 00:10:58,542 in four different materials. 196 00:10:58,708 --> 00:11:01,208 Granite, volcanic stone, 197 00:11:01,375 --> 00:11:03,792 sandstone and limestone. 198 00:11:03,917 --> 00:11:06,167 And different sizes, also. 199 00:11:06,333 --> 00:11:08,333 In most cases, 200 00:11:08,458 --> 00:11:10,542 they are over one ton. 201 00:11:11,583 --> 00:11:14,667 After his initial discovery of the stone spheres, 202 00:11:14,875 --> 00:11:18,292 Dr. Osmanagich expanded his search. 203 00:11:18,375 --> 00:11:20,667 And in 2016, he spotted 204 00:11:20,875 --> 00:11:22,958 the most enormous stone sphere 205 00:11:23,125 --> 00:11:26,167 he had ever seen hidden in the forest floor. 206 00:11:26,375 --> 00:11:29,708 We could see that the small part of the sphere 207 00:11:29,875 --> 00:11:31,500 was sticking out. 208 00:11:31,708 --> 00:11:33,208 We started clearing it, 209 00:11:33,375 --> 00:11:36,750 realizing that it was huge. 210 00:11:36,917 --> 00:11:38,708 Monumental in size. 211 00:11:38,875 --> 00:11:41,625 Once we cleared almost all of it, 212 00:11:41,708 --> 00:11:43,667 we've done the measurements. 213 00:11:44,958 --> 00:11:48,500 It is more than three meters in diameter. 214 00:11:48,625 --> 00:11:52,750 37 tons. 215 00:11:53,750 --> 00:11:57,333 So, this was the largest stone sphere discovery 216 00:11:57,542 --> 00:11:59,958 in the world. 217 00:12:02,125 --> 00:12:04,792 How the Bosnian stone spheres were created 218 00:12:04,958 --> 00:12:06,375 remains a mystery. 219 00:12:06,542 --> 00:12:08,458 Some geologists suggest 220 00:12:08,667 --> 00:12:11,042 they were shaped through erosion. 221 00:12:11,208 --> 00:12:14,250 But others believe the spheres are simply too perfect 222 00:12:14,417 --> 00:12:16,375 to have been formed naturally. 223 00:12:18,667 --> 00:12:20,625 There is a process called "spherical" 224 00:12:20,708 --> 00:12:22,583 or "spheroidal" weathering 225 00:12:22,708 --> 00:12:25,292 that is very, very common. 226 00:12:26,625 --> 00:12:29,292 We see them on the landscape in Arizona, 227 00:12:29,458 --> 00:12:31,458 everywhere, called hoodoos. 228 00:12:31,625 --> 00:12:33,333 You can see them out in Alabama Hills, 229 00:12:33,500 --> 00:12:35,333 out in Owens Valley. 230 00:12:35,458 --> 00:12:37,917 There's a lot of examples of this sort of sphere weathering. 231 00:12:38,083 --> 00:12:41,000 But rarely are they perfect spheres. 232 00:12:41,167 --> 00:12:44,458 And so it could be that some of these stones started out 233 00:12:44,625 --> 00:12:46,625 mostly spheroidal, and then were worked 234 00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:49,458 into a... 235 00:12:49,667 --> 00:12:52,000 more perfect sphere. 236 00:12:52,125 --> 00:12:54,167 The one in particular that I'm thinking of, 237 00:12:54,333 --> 00:12:55,667 Bosnia, that's been, 238 00:12:55,792 --> 00:12:57,667 um, in the headlines lately 239 00:12:57,833 --> 00:12:59,667 has evidence of heat treating 240 00:12:59,833 --> 00:13:01,917 to help facilitate polishing. 241 00:13:02,083 --> 00:13:05,375 These are not just round stones. 242 00:13:05,542 --> 00:13:08,292 They are 96% perfect 243 00:13:08,458 --> 00:13:10,000 in their spherical form. 244 00:13:10,208 --> 00:13:12,250 That's not something that's created by the Earth. 245 00:13:13,708 --> 00:13:16,458 The near-perfect measurements of the stone spheres 246 00:13:16,542 --> 00:13:18,833 convinced Dr. Osmanagich 247 00:13:19,042 --> 00:13:21,958 that they were carved by artificial means. 248 00:13:22,125 --> 00:13:25,583 And in 2016, he sparked controversy 249 00:13:25,792 --> 00:13:28,125 when he announced that he believed 250 00:13:28,250 --> 00:13:32,042 they originated with some unknown civilization. 251 00:13:33,208 --> 00:13:34,958 Who made them? 252 00:13:35,125 --> 00:13:37,042 We don't have precise answer, but we know 253 00:13:37,208 --> 00:13:40,208 that they were made by ancient builders. 254 00:13:40,417 --> 00:13:41,708 Why? 255 00:13:41,833 --> 00:13:44,417 Granite never comes 256 00:13:44,583 --> 00:13:47,250 in spherical shape in nature. 257 00:13:48,542 --> 00:13:51,750 If the stone spheres are not naturally formed, 258 00:13:51,875 --> 00:13:54,333 as Dr. Osmanagich suggests, 259 00:13:54,542 --> 00:13:56,500 when were they made? 260 00:13:56,583 --> 00:13:58,000 Many of the spheres 261 00:13:58,167 --> 00:14:00,667 are impossible to scientifically date, 262 00:14:00,833 --> 00:14:02,958 but based on the layers of soil 263 00:14:03,125 --> 00:14:05,417 where the largest stone sphere was discovered, 264 00:14:05,583 --> 00:14:10,958 Dr. Osmanagich believes it is up to 100,000 years old. 265 00:14:11,875 --> 00:14:14,000 We don't have very specific time, 266 00:14:14,167 --> 00:14:16,625 but what we do know, extremely old. 267 00:14:16,750 --> 00:14:18,208 How do we know that? 268 00:14:19,417 --> 00:14:21,833 The Bosnian stones sphere, the biggest one, 269 00:14:22,042 --> 00:14:25,125 is discovered below the tree... 270 00:14:25,292 --> 00:14:26,667 50 years... 271 00:14:26,792 --> 00:14:29,667 Dark soil... 100 years... 272 00:14:29,875 --> 00:14:32,500 Light soil... couple of hundred years. 273 00:14:32,625 --> 00:14:34,917 We have light clay. 274 00:14:35,125 --> 00:14:36,792 Almost 1,000 years. 275 00:14:36,958 --> 00:14:38,667 We have dark clay, we have gray clay. 276 00:14:38,833 --> 00:14:40,083 Tens of thousands of years. 277 00:14:40,250 --> 00:14:43,333 And, finally, we have sandstone plate. 278 00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:47,167 100,000-plus years. 279 00:14:48,708 --> 00:14:51,958 Is it possible that the stone spheres in Bosnia 280 00:14:52,125 --> 00:14:54,458 were created by some unknown culture 281 00:14:54,625 --> 00:14:57,250 tens of thousands of years ago? 282 00:14:57,417 --> 00:15:00,042 And if so, how? 283 00:15:00,208 --> 00:15:02,833 According to the mainstream archeologists, 284 00:15:02,958 --> 00:15:04,792 until a couple of thousands of years back, 285 00:15:04,917 --> 00:15:07,125 the only tools were copper tools. 286 00:15:08,125 --> 00:15:10,667 Copper is soft material. 287 00:15:10,792 --> 00:15:12,667 You cannot use copper tools 288 00:15:12,833 --> 00:15:15,000 to shape granite stones. 289 00:15:15,208 --> 00:15:18,667 Of course this is us, 21st-century civilization. 290 00:15:18,833 --> 00:15:20,625 What did they use? 291 00:15:22,250 --> 00:15:25,333 To try and understand how these artifacts were shaped, 292 00:15:25,458 --> 00:15:29,292 Dr. Osmanagich had several samples taken from the spheres 293 00:15:29,375 --> 00:15:30,667 analyzed in a lab 294 00:15:30,875 --> 00:15:33,292 at the University of Belgrade in Serbia. 295 00:15:33,458 --> 00:15:35,917 We realized that there is a difference 296 00:15:36,083 --> 00:15:39,458 between their physical and chemical properties 297 00:15:39,667 --> 00:15:43,000 and natural stone materials. 298 00:15:43,167 --> 00:15:45,167 There is a chemical component 299 00:15:45,375 --> 00:15:47,167 that was found within the spheres. 300 00:15:47,375 --> 00:15:50,625 And this chemical has not been able to be identified. 301 00:15:52,208 --> 00:15:54,750 If the giant stone spheres in Bosnia 302 00:15:54,875 --> 00:15:57,750 were created by an ancient civilization, 303 00:15:57,917 --> 00:16:00,042 what purpose did they serve? 304 00:16:00,208 --> 00:16:03,083 The precise engineering of the monoliths, 305 00:16:03,250 --> 00:16:05,625 and the fact that many are made of granite, 306 00:16:05,792 --> 00:16:08,292 has convinced Dr. Osmanagich 307 00:16:08,458 --> 00:16:11,167 that the stone spheres' true purpose was to transmit 308 00:16:11,375 --> 00:16:14,167 Earth energy that occurs in the region. 309 00:16:15,167 --> 00:16:19,250 It seems that they had multi-layer purpose. 310 00:16:19,417 --> 00:16:22,958 According to the new science, bio-geometry, 311 00:16:23,125 --> 00:16:25,708 three most powerful geometrical shapes 312 00:16:25,875 --> 00:16:28,000 when it comes to the energy, are: 313 00:16:28,167 --> 00:16:30,583 four-sided pyramid, 314 00:16:30,750 --> 00:16:32,667 conical shape, 315 00:16:32,792 --> 00:16:35,500 and the third one is the sphere. 316 00:16:35,667 --> 00:16:38,333 Those three geometrical shapes 317 00:16:38,542 --> 00:16:40,625 amplify the energies. 318 00:16:41,917 --> 00:16:43,750 Most of the stone balls 319 00:16:43,917 --> 00:16:45,833 have quartz crystal. 320 00:16:46,042 --> 00:16:48,542 Quartz crystal has the ability 321 00:16:48,708 --> 00:16:51,042 to amplify the energy. 322 00:16:51,208 --> 00:16:54,792 Dr. Semir Osmanagich talks about 323 00:16:54,958 --> 00:16:57,792 the use of these spheres as, potentially, 324 00:16:57,958 --> 00:16:59,250 small power supplies. 325 00:16:59,417 --> 00:17:01,542 And this makes sense when you look at them 326 00:17:01,708 --> 00:17:04,250 in context with the rest of Bosnia. 327 00:17:05,333 --> 00:17:07,583 When you're sitting in this creek bed, 328 00:17:07,750 --> 00:17:11,750 surrounded by these spheres, it's hard to describe, 329 00:17:11,875 --> 00:17:14,208 but it does feel powerful. 330 00:17:14,375 --> 00:17:17,042 It feels like it is generating energy. 331 00:17:20,625 --> 00:17:23,292 Did the giant stone spheres in Bosnia 332 00:17:23,417 --> 00:17:26,167 once serve a technological function? 333 00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:28,917 And if so, might other stone spheres 334 00:17:29,042 --> 00:17:31,250 have a similar purpose? 335 00:17:31,375 --> 00:17:35,000 Perhaps answers can be found by examining 336 00:17:35,167 --> 00:17:37,792 hundreds of stone spheres in Mexico 337 00:17:37,958 --> 00:17:40,542 that were hidden for centuries. 338 00:17:48,125 --> 00:17:50,542 Teotihuacan, Mexico. 339 00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:54,667 This ancient pyramid site was once home 340 00:17:54,833 --> 00:17:56,417 to a mysterious civilization 341 00:17:56,583 --> 00:17:59,250 dating back to the first century AD. 342 00:17:59,417 --> 00:18:03,792 A time long before the Aztec arrived in this region. 343 00:18:05,125 --> 00:18:07,292 Since the early 1990s, 344 00:18:07,417 --> 00:18:09,792 archaeologists have been exploring 345 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:14,333 the dozens of subterranean rooms, tunnels, and pathways 346 00:18:14,417 --> 00:18:18,208 that lie below this eight-square-mile complex. 347 00:18:20,333 --> 00:18:23,250 They've been doing a lot of excavations to understand 348 00:18:23,375 --> 00:18:26,583 the nature and the relationship of the different pyramids. 349 00:18:27,875 --> 00:18:30,125 And they're exploring underneath 350 00:18:30,292 --> 00:18:32,083 the Temple of the Feathered Serpent. 351 00:18:32,250 --> 00:18:34,833 And so they've made some really nice maps 352 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,500 of the pathways and such that are underneath the temple 353 00:18:37,667 --> 00:18:41,417 and exposed caverns in areas that they didn't know existed. 354 00:18:42,708 --> 00:18:44,417 In May of 2013, 355 00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:48,625 researchers working beneath the Temple of the Feathered Serpent 356 00:18:48,708 --> 00:18:50,625 employed a small robot 357 00:18:50,750 --> 00:18:53,375 called Tlaloc II-TC 358 00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:56,583 to explore the recently uncovered area. 359 00:18:56,750 --> 00:18:58,500 Inside one chamber, 360 00:18:58,625 --> 00:19:01,458 archeologists made a curious discovery. 361 00:19:01,625 --> 00:19:06,500 They found more than 100 gold-colored metallic spheres. 362 00:19:06,708 --> 00:19:09,292 These tiny balls 363 00:19:09,458 --> 00:19:11,833 are probably anything between 364 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000 an inch to about five inches in diameter. 365 00:19:15,167 --> 00:19:18,500 And what we can say is that 366 00:19:18,667 --> 00:19:21,125 when they were actually put in place, 367 00:19:21,333 --> 00:19:24,250 probably about 2,000 years ago, 368 00:19:24,417 --> 00:19:26,667 you would've had this incredible 369 00:19:26,875 --> 00:19:29,167 shining gallery of lights 370 00:19:29,333 --> 00:19:31,167 as you went down it. 371 00:19:31,292 --> 00:19:34,125 They appear gold, but when you look at them 372 00:19:34,292 --> 00:19:35,833 under chemical inspection, 373 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,750 it appears that that gold color is the mineral pyrite. 374 00:19:41,208 --> 00:19:44,375 The Mexican archeologists are completely perplexed. 375 00:19:44,542 --> 00:19:46,375 They haven't seen anything like this before. 376 00:19:46,583 --> 00:19:48,458 They haven't seen anything like this 377 00:19:48,667 --> 00:19:51,083 in their explorations of the other temples. 378 00:19:51,250 --> 00:19:53,667 So there's lots of questions to be answered still. 379 00:19:57,833 --> 00:20:00,458 Archeologists retrieved several spheres 380 00:20:00,583 --> 00:20:02,875 from the chamber, and when they analyzed them, 381 00:20:03,042 --> 00:20:05,458 they were amazed by what they found. 382 00:20:05,583 --> 00:20:09,250 The sparkly spheres that were found 383 00:20:09,417 --> 00:20:12,792 in Teotihuacan really are an enigma. 384 00:20:12,958 --> 00:20:15,167 As far as how they were made, 385 00:20:15,375 --> 00:20:17,000 men definitely made them. 386 00:20:17,208 --> 00:20:18,500 We have looked at those spheres. 387 00:20:18,667 --> 00:20:20,333 And they are clay. 388 00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:22,625 They are, like, sunbaked clay 389 00:20:22,833 --> 00:20:25,667 that was then rolled in pyrite dust. 390 00:20:25,875 --> 00:20:28,458 That's why they have that kind of yellow color. 391 00:20:29,458 --> 00:20:32,292 Why they did it... I don't know. 392 00:20:33,625 --> 00:20:36,042 Nobody knows the purpose of them, 393 00:20:36,208 --> 00:20:38,458 why they were made, or even who made them, 394 00:20:38,583 --> 00:20:40,167 but the fact that they're there 395 00:20:40,333 --> 00:20:42,333 tells us they are of utmost importance 396 00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:44,583 to what went on at the temple. 397 00:20:47,458 --> 00:20:48,667 The golden spheres found 398 00:20:48,833 --> 00:20:50,958 under the Temple of the Feathered Serpent 399 00:20:51,167 --> 00:20:53,500 are a mystery to archaeologists, 400 00:20:53,625 --> 00:20:56,458 but some believe they may be representations 401 00:20:56,583 --> 00:21:00,833 of celestial bodies observed in the night sky. 402 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,333 But ancient astronaut theorists suggest the mysterious spheres 403 00:21:05,542 --> 00:21:08,125 could have served a more profound purpose, 404 00:21:08,292 --> 00:21:12,583 and point to another discovery made in 1906. 405 00:21:13,875 --> 00:21:16,125 At Teotihuacan, 406 00:21:16,292 --> 00:21:18,625 huge mica sheets have been found 407 00:21:18,792 --> 00:21:22,375 beneath a layer of stone flooring 408 00:21:22,542 --> 00:21:26,167 that were 90 feet square, 409 00:21:26,375 --> 00:21:29,167 and they were placed directly on top of each other, 410 00:21:29,333 --> 00:21:30,833 and yet, you couldn't see them. 411 00:21:32,458 --> 00:21:36,542 So, they clearly weren't decorative or aesthetic, 412 00:21:36,708 --> 00:21:40,500 they were clearly functional in their use. 413 00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:43,125 So what were they doing there? 414 00:21:43,292 --> 00:21:45,250 We use mica today 415 00:21:45,417 --> 00:21:47,375 in spacefaring technology. 416 00:21:47,542 --> 00:21:49,667 It's a heat shield 417 00:21:49,875 --> 00:21:53,083 for high, very, very high temperatures. 418 00:21:53,208 --> 00:21:55,375 What is it doing at Teotihuacan? 419 00:21:55,542 --> 00:21:59,458 What's also fascinating is that, throughout Teotihuacan, 420 00:21:59,625 --> 00:22:03,000 you see burn marks on the walls. 421 00:22:03,208 --> 00:22:06,958 So, at some point, Teotihuacan 422 00:22:07,125 --> 00:22:10,167 underwent a gigantic fire. 423 00:22:10,292 --> 00:22:13,208 Or was it something else? 424 00:22:13,375 --> 00:22:16,333 Was it some type of a blast? 425 00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:18,458 Was it some type of an exhaust? 426 00:22:18,625 --> 00:22:20,542 Curiously, 427 00:22:20,708 --> 00:22:23,500 mica wasn't the only unusual substance 428 00:22:23,667 --> 00:22:26,333 found within the ancient structure. 429 00:22:26,458 --> 00:22:29,333 They actually found mercury 430 00:22:29,500 --> 00:22:31,167 under some of the pyramids as well. 431 00:22:31,292 --> 00:22:32,667 So what does this all mean? 432 00:22:32,875 --> 00:22:34,292 Well, mercury is used 433 00:22:34,458 --> 00:22:36,167 in different electrical components, 434 00:22:36,333 --> 00:22:38,333 and it conducts electricity. 435 00:22:38,542 --> 00:22:40,250 So, can we suggest that they were 436 00:22:40,417 --> 00:22:44,000 using this for some advanced technological purpose? 437 00:22:44,167 --> 00:22:47,375 Mercury itself is-is very special. 438 00:22:47,542 --> 00:22:50,667 It's a metal, it's a liquid, it's an electrical conductor. 439 00:22:50,833 --> 00:22:53,917 Mercury can be used for many, many devices, 440 00:22:54,083 --> 00:22:55,833 all of which are high-tech. 441 00:22:56,042 --> 00:23:00,625 So you have to wonder, what is going on here at Teotihuacan? 442 00:23:00,792 --> 00:23:04,833 Do these small balls and the mica 443 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,208 and the mercury and other facets of the pyramid, 444 00:23:08,375 --> 00:23:10,375 are they all working together 445 00:23:10,542 --> 00:23:14,958 to create some kind of electrical device 446 00:23:15,125 --> 00:23:17,083 that's doing something? 447 00:23:17,208 --> 00:23:19,458 That would seem to be the case. 448 00:23:19,667 --> 00:23:23,125 Does the discovery at Teotihuacan 449 00:23:23,250 --> 00:23:24,875 of both mica and mercury, 450 00:23:25,042 --> 00:23:28,750 two substances with high-tech applications, 451 00:23:28,917 --> 00:23:31,625 indicate that an advanced technology 452 00:23:31,792 --> 00:23:36,125 once existed in this ancient Mesoamerican city? 453 00:23:36,333 --> 00:23:38,833 One that involved the mysterious spheres 454 00:23:39,042 --> 00:23:42,667 found under the Temple of the Feathered Serpent? 455 00:23:42,792 --> 00:23:46,333 We've often suggested that ancient structures 456 00:23:46,458 --> 00:23:49,333 may have been used as some type 457 00:23:49,542 --> 00:23:51,208 of energy capacitor. 458 00:23:51,333 --> 00:23:54,417 An aeronautics engineer has suggested 459 00:23:54,542 --> 00:23:58,417 that the Great Pyramid of Egypt, or the whole Giza complex, 460 00:23:58,583 --> 00:24:01,417 may have been some type of a giant power plant. 461 00:24:01,625 --> 00:24:05,375 Well, what if Egypt is not the only place 462 00:24:05,542 --> 00:24:07,875 where they had something like this? 463 00:24:08,042 --> 00:24:12,542 Are the small golden spheres discovered at Teotihuacan 464 00:24:12,708 --> 00:24:16,000 evidence of an extraterrestrial presence 465 00:24:16,208 --> 00:24:19,333 on Earth centuries ago? 466 00:24:19,542 --> 00:24:22,667 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, 467 00:24:22,875 --> 00:24:25,167 and suggest further clues can be found 468 00:24:25,333 --> 00:24:31,167 by examining mysterious spheres that are not from this planet. 469 00:24:37,292 --> 00:24:42,208 Cambridge, Massachusetts, 2019. 470 00:24:43,375 --> 00:24:47,167 Harvard astrophysicist Dr. Avi Loeb 471 00:24:47,375 --> 00:24:49,750 learns of a meteorite that exploded 472 00:24:49,917 --> 00:24:53,167 over the Pacific Ocean five years earlier. 473 00:24:55,042 --> 00:24:57,500 I came across a meteor catalog 474 00:24:57,667 --> 00:24:59,333 that the government compiled 475 00:24:59,542 --> 00:25:01,500 using its missile warning system. 476 00:25:01,625 --> 00:25:03,625 The meteor, burned up 477 00:25:03,750 --> 00:25:08,292 about 100 miles off the coast of Papua New Guinea, 478 00:25:08,458 --> 00:25:10,708 and it released a few percent of the energy 479 00:25:10,917 --> 00:25:13,625 of the Hiroshima bomb when it exploded. 480 00:25:13,833 --> 00:25:15,667 From that, we inferred 481 00:25:15,875 --> 00:25:19,708 it was about half a meter in size when it exploded. 482 00:25:19,875 --> 00:25:22,792 What intrigued Dr. Loeb the most 483 00:25:22,917 --> 00:25:26,167 wasn't the object's size but where it came from. 484 00:25:26,375 --> 00:25:28,000 The meteor was actually moving 485 00:25:28,208 --> 00:25:33,083 at 60 kilometers per second, clearly unbound to the Sun. 486 00:25:33,250 --> 00:25:36,500 It must have originated from outside the solar system. 487 00:25:36,667 --> 00:25:38,708 This revelation is the first time 488 00:25:38,833 --> 00:25:42,083 astronomers have identified an interstellar object 489 00:25:42,292 --> 00:25:44,542 that entered the Earth's atmosphere. 490 00:25:44,708 --> 00:25:47,292 Excited by the discovery, 491 00:25:47,458 --> 00:25:50,250 Dr. Loeb closely examined the data 492 00:25:50,417 --> 00:25:52,542 captured by the military satellites, 493 00:25:52,708 --> 00:25:55,500 and he noticed something extraordinary. 494 00:25:55,667 --> 00:25:57,750 The government released data 495 00:25:57,958 --> 00:26:01,333 of the explosion and from that, we inferred that the object 496 00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:04,750 has material strength that is very unusual. 497 00:26:04,875 --> 00:26:08,042 It's made of some alloy that is much tougher 498 00:26:08,208 --> 00:26:10,167 than iron meteorites. 499 00:26:10,292 --> 00:26:15,458 So, not only was this object the first interstellar meteor 500 00:26:15,625 --> 00:26:19,667 but it was also tougher than all other meteors 501 00:26:19,750 --> 00:26:23,292 detected by the government in that catalog. 502 00:26:23,458 --> 00:26:25,333 And that raises the possibility 503 00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:28,292 that it may have been a spacecraft. 504 00:26:29,417 --> 00:26:30,500 Is it possible 505 00:26:30,667 --> 00:26:32,667 that an extraterrestrial spacecraft 506 00:26:32,792 --> 00:26:35,000 crashed into the Pacific Ocean? 507 00:26:35,208 --> 00:26:38,625 To find out, Dr. Loeb and a team of scientists 508 00:26:38,833 --> 00:26:41,542 set out in June 2023 509 00:26:41,708 --> 00:26:45,000 to attempt to retrieve any debris of the event. 510 00:26:45,125 --> 00:26:48,708 Avi Loeb initiated this expedition 511 00:26:48,875 --> 00:26:51,125 off the coast of Papua New Guinea 512 00:26:51,250 --> 00:26:54,875 to try and retrieve the fragments of this meteor, 513 00:26:55,042 --> 00:26:59,833 which was now known under the name IM1. 514 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,667 And this expedition was incredibly successful. 515 00:27:04,833 --> 00:27:08,667 What they managed to do, using a magnetic sledge, 516 00:27:08,833 --> 00:27:15,250 was to retrieve around 700 very tiny spherules. 517 00:27:16,542 --> 00:27:18,000 The samples were sent 518 00:27:18,208 --> 00:27:21,500 to Harvard College Observatory for further study, 519 00:27:21,708 --> 00:27:24,625 because no one knows, really, where they came from 520 00:27:24,750 --> 00:27:26,625 and what they're made of. 521 00:27:26,750 --> 00:27:28,208 Remarkably, 522 00:27:28,375 --> 00:27:31,167 the material recovered by the magnetic sled, 523 00:27:31,292 --> 00:27:34,042 containing microscopic metal spherules, 524 00:27:34,208 --> 00:27:38,833 was unlike anything the scientists had ever seen. 525 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,583 Probably about 50 to 60 so far 526 00:27:42,750 --> 00:27:44,875 have been properly studied. 527 00:27:45,042 --> 00:27:50,167 And these show elements that could not have been 528 00:27:50,375 --> 00:27:53,875 from the solar system itself, or not primarily. 529 00:27:54,083 --> 00:27:57,625 They must have come in from another star system. 530 00:27:59,208 --> 00:28:01,750 To Dr. Loeb, the discovery is evidence 531 00:28:01,958 --> 00:28:04,958 that he has found remnants of the interstellar meteorite. 532 00:28:05,083 --> 00:28:08,792 But the most remarkable find was still to come. 533 00:28:08,917 --> 00:28:12,250 Further scientific testing of the mysterious objects 534 00:28:12,417 --> 00:28:15,958 revealed a composition that led Dr. Loeb to believe 535 00:28:16,125 --> 00:28:20,792 they could be fragments of extraterrestrial technology. 536 00:28:20,958 --> 00:28:22,958 The spheres were found to contain 537 00:28:23,125 --> 00:28:25,667 extremely high levels of beryllium, 538 00:28:25,833 --> 00:28:28,167 lanthanum and uranium, 539 00:28:28,375 --> 00:28:33,250 making a never-before-seen compound known as "BeLaU." 540 00:28:33,417 --> 00:28:35,792 That BeLaU composition does not exist 541 00:28:35,958 --> 00:28:38,917 in any known mineral or rock that we know of. 542 00:28:39,042 --> 00:28:41,542 And so this does speak to his hypothesis 543 00:28:41,708 --> 00:28:44,833 that they're manufactured extraterrestrially. 544 00:28:45,042 --> 00:28:48,125 Dr. Avi Loeb proposes 545 00:28:48,208 --> 00:28:54,875 that these spherules may be part of some type of E.T. technology. 546 00:28:55,042 --> 00:28:59,292 What exactly he means by that, I don't know. 547 00:28:59,458 --> 00:29:02,833 Could that really be a remnant 548 00:29:02,958 --> 00:29:07,333 of a far, far distant extraterrestrial civilization? 549 00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:12,583 Word of Dr. Loeb's discovery made headlines across the globe 550 00:29:12,708 --> 00:29:16,000 and stirred up controversy among his peers. 551 00:29:16,208 --> 00:29:17,753 Within academia, there is still resistance 552 00:29:17,833 --> 00:29:20,167 to discussing this subject openly. 553 00:29:20,375 --> 00:29:25,333 However, if we do not invest in getting better data, 554 00:29:25,542 --> 00:29:29,833 we will never be able to figure out the nature of these objects. 555 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,208 Unless you search, you will never find this evidence. 556 00:29:33,375 --> 00:29:36,750 Is it possible that the mysterious alloy 557 00:29:36,875 --> 00:29:40,625 is a material created by extraterrestrial beings? 558 00:29:40,792 --> 00:29:43,750 Dr. Loeb's research is ongoing. 559 00:29:43,875 --> 00:29:46,333 But if true, the spheres he discovered 560 00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:51,167 will upend humanity's place in the universe. 561 00:29:51,333 --> 00:29:53,167 We will publish our results 562 00:29:53,375 --> 00:29:55,000 in peer-reviewed journals 563 00:29:55,208 --> 00:29:59,375 and make them available for anyone to see. 564 00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,750 If we end up concluding that it was artificial in origin, 565 00:30:02,958 --> 00:30:04,667 perhaps a spacecraft, 566 00:30:04,875 --> 00:30:08,750 that would be the first time that we found evidence 567 00:30:08,958 --> 00:30:13,250 for an object that originated from another civilization. 568 00:30:14,708 --> 00:30:16,333 Avi Loeb's suggestion 569 00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:17,917 that the spheres may have come 570 00:30:18,042 --> 00:30:20,208 from an extraterrestrial spacecraft 571 00:30:20,417 --> 00:30:24,000 has been hotly debated in the scientific community... 572 00:30:24,167 --> 00:30:26,208 - Got filaments here. - But incredibly, 573 00:30:26,417 --> 00:30:30,667 another scientist has also recovered tiny metal spheres 574 00:30:30,750 --> 00:30:35,042 that he is convinced are of alien origin. 575 00:30:39,875 --> 00:30:43,750 The University of Sheffield, England, 2015. 576 00:30:43,917 --> 00:30:45,708 Andre, on you. Countdown, please. 577 00:30:45,875 --> 00:30:47,750 Astrobiologist Dr. Milton Wainwright 578 00:30:47,917 --> 00:30:50,708 - and his research team... - Three, two, one. 579 00:30:50,917 --> 00:30:52,417 Release scientific balloons 580 00:30:52,583 --> 00:30:55,125 25 miles up into the sky. 581 00:30:55,292 --> 00:30:58,167 Once a balloon reaches its target altitude, 582 00:30:58,375 --> 00:31:01,667 a capture mechanism will collect samples of material 583 00:31:01,875 --> 00:31:04,708 within the Earth's stratosphere. 584 00:31:04,875 --> 00:31:08,083 After the sampling is complete, the balloon bursts, 585 00:31:08,250 --> 00:31:11,500 and the capture mechanism descends back to Earth 586 00:31:11,667 --> 00:31:15,125 under the safety of a parachute. 587 00:31:15,333 --> 00:31:19,250 In 2015, Dr. Milton Wainwright, 588 00:31:19,375 --> 00:31:22,667 sent one of these balloons up, and it was hit 589 00:31:22,875 --> 00:31:25,667 at an incredible rate, by something 590 00:31:25,833 --> 00:31:29,167 that left behind a small crater. 591 00:31:29,375 --> 00:31:33,083 And when they actually dug into this crater 592 00:31:33,208 --> 00:31:38,333 to see what it was, it was a tiny sphere. 593 00:31:38,458 --> 00:31:42,250 And when they actually examined what the sphere was made of, 594 00:31:42,375 --> 00:31:47,333 it was found to be of titanium and vanadium. 595 00:31:47,542 --> 00:31:50,042 And these are elements 596 00:31:50,208 --> 00:31:52,458 that shouldn't be there naturally 597 00:31:52,625 --> 00:31:54,500 out in the lower atmosphere. 598 00:31:55,458 --> 00:31:58,833 There's no Earth material associated with them. 599 00:31:58,958 --> 00:32:02,292 And they're too large to be carried from Earth 600 00:32:02,417 --> 00:32:03,667 to these altitudes. 601 00:32:03,833 --> 00:32:06,458 They must be incoming from space. 602 00:32:06,625 --> 00:32:09,167 Where are they coming from? We just don't know. 603 00:32:10,208 --> 00:32:12,000 Upon closer examination, 604 00:32:12,167 --> 00:32:15,208 Dr. Wainwright noticed the small sphere 605 00:32:15,375 --> 00:32:18,458 contained something completely unexpected. 606 00:32:18,667 --> 00:32:21,083 This tiny sphere, when they studied it 607 00:32:21,208 --> 00:32:23,542 under electron microscope, 608 00:32:23,750 --> 00:32:25,833 saw that it was actually a shell 609 00:32:25,958 --> 00:32:27,333 that had now broken, 610 00:32:27,542 --> 00:32:29,792 and coming out of it 611 00:32:29,917 --> 00:32:33,042 was this strange ooze that they felt 612 00:32:33,208 --> 00:32:35,667 was biological in nature. 613 00:32:36,792 --> 00:32:40,208 The characteristics of these organisms is very interesting. 614 00:32:40,375 --> 00:32:42,667 They're made of carbon and oxygen, 615 00:32:42,833 --> 00:32:44,667 so we know they're life-forms. 616 00:32:44,875 --> 00:32:48,333 They don't contain silicon, so they're not bits of cosmic dust. 617 00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:50,167 They're very unusual. 618 00:32:50,333 --> 00:32:52,087 When I see the shapes of these things, I'm amazed, 619 00:32:52,167 --> 00:32:54,128 'cause I've never seen anything like them on Earth. 620 00:32:54,208 --> 00:32:58,042 There's no textbook version of the pictures we've been seeing. 621 00:32:59,083 --> 00:33:00,667 Although it is still unknown 622 00:33:00,875 --> 00:33:03,000 just where these spheres come from, 623 00:33:03,167 --> 00:33:06,000 Dr. Wainwright believes they are being used 624 00:33:06,125 --> 00:33:08,833 to introduce new life-forms on Earth. 625 00:33:08,958 --> 00:33:12,667 This concept is known as panspermia. 626 00:33:12,792 --> 00:33:15,667 The question, how life ever got here, 627 00:33:15,833 --> 00:33:19,708 to astronomers and to astrobiologists, 628 00:33:19,875 --> 00:33:22,458 is still a gigantic question mark 629 00:33:22,583 --> 00:33:24,000 and a huge debate 630 00:33:24,208 --> 00:33:27,625 because, at some point, our planet 631 00:33:27,792 --> 00:33:32,292 was just a rock with rocks and water. That's it. 632 00:33:32,417 --> 00:33:34,333 And so, how did it all begin? 633 00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:37,292 And so, there's two ways. One is panspermia. 634 00:33:37,458 --> 00:33:41,000 Panspermia suggests that life was carried 635 00:33:41,167 --> 00:33:45,125 on the backs of comets throughout the universe. 636 00:33:45,292 --> 00:33:48,708 So, it's a natural seeding of the planets. 637 00:33:48,875 --> 00:33:51,167 The other one is directed panspermia, 638 00:33:51,375 --> 00:33:54,333 and direct panspermia dictates 639 00:33:54,542 --> 00:33:59,000 that an intelligent extraterrestrial civilization 640 00:33:59,167 --> 00:34:01,792 that's much, much older than ours 641 00:34:01,917 --> 00:34:05,667 sent probes out to seed the planet 642 00:34:05,792 --> 00:34:08,125 with their own DNA. 643 00:34:09,458 --> 00:34:12,333 Directed panspermia is an idea first suggested 644 00:34:12,500 --> 00:34:17,167 by the famous DNA pioneer Francis Crick. 645 00:34:17,292 --> 00:34:20,458 And, basically, the idea is that maybe 646 00:34:20,625 --> 00:34:22,667 aliens sent life to Earth. 647 00:34:22,875 --> 00:34:26,500 This is the idea that an alien civilization 648 00:34:26,708 --> 00:34:29,375 would send out these seeds 649 00:34:29,542 --> 00:34:32,375 into different parts of the galaxy 650 00:34:32,583 --> 00:34:35,958 that would come into the atmospheres of planets 651 00:34:36,083 --> 00:34:38,792 and eventually reach the surface. 652 00:34:38,958 --> 00:34:42,708 And this biological ooze would then create 653 00:34:42,875 --> 00:34:44,667 the beginnings of life itself. 654 00:34:45,750 --> 00:34:49,792 With Dr. Wainwright's small metal sphere, 655 00:34:49,958 --> 00:34:55,458 you have to wonder, is this protein ooze that's inside it 656 00:34:55,583 --> 00:35:00,292 something to seed the planet with life? 657 00:35:00,458 --> 00:35:03,000 And to me, that's a fascinating idea. 658 00:35:03,167 --> 00:35:06,083 And if this is the case, then 659 00:35:06,250 --> 00:35:07,875 perhaps the extraterrestrials 660 00:35:08,042 --> 00:35:11,083 are using these metallic spheres, 661 00:35:11,208 --> 00:35:15,000 which are full of some protein liquid 662 00:35:15,167 --> 00:35:18,667 that will jump-start life on the planet. 663 00:35:19,708 --> 00:35:23,083 Could the tiny metal spheres found in our atmosphere 664 00:35:23,250 --> 00:35:25,625 really be designed to seed life on Earth? 665 00:35:25,708 --> 00:35:28,542 For Dr. Wainwright, the distinct shape 666 00:35:28,667 --> 00:35:33,292 of the microscopic objects presents a compelling argument. 667 00:35:33,458 --> 00:35:34,833 The reason I'm suggesting 668 00:35:35,042 --> 00:35:36,583 it might be artificial engineering, 669 00:35:36,750 --> 00:35:39,500 it's pretty obvious that, if you're looking for a vehicle 670 00:35:39,625 --> 00:35:43,125 of directed panspermia, this is what you would pick. 671 00:35:43,250 --> 00:35:46,500 Instead of sending one rocket, you know, to California 672 00:35:46,708 --> 00:35:48,708 or to Sheffield, what you want to do 673 00:35:48,875 --> 00:35:53,250 is to completely cover the globe in minute balls of life. 674 00:35:53,417 --> 00:35:56,667 And this would absolutely fit the bill. 675 00:35:57,750 --> 00:36:01,458 To Dr. Wainwright, this was evidence of cosmic seeding. 676 00:36:01,625 --> 00:36:04,417 He believed that the spheres were, in fact, a technology... 677 00:36:04,583 --> 00:36:07,000 A seed, if you will... that were sent deliberately 678 00:36:07,125 --> 00:36:10,500 to Earth by some unknown advanced civilization. 679 00:36:10,583 --> 00:36:12,583 This would certainly be one way 680 00:36:12,750 --> 00:36:15,417 of accelerating evolution on Earth. 681 00:36:16,708 --> 00:36:19,792 Dr. Wainwright awaits additional funding 682 00:36:19,917 --> 00:36:22,083 to continue his experiments, 683 00:36:22,250 --> 00:36:25,333 and as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, 684 00:36:25,500 --> 00:36:29,000 the questions raised by his research 685 00:36:29,208 --> 00:36:31,667 merit further examination. 686 00:36:31,875 --> 00:36:35,167 This oozing liquid that's inside these spherules 687 00:36:35,333 --> 00:36:39,000 is something that has never been discovered elsewhere. 688 00:36:39,167 --> 00:36:40,167 So what is it? 689 00:36:41,208 --> 00:36:45,417 Could it be that this is a part 690 00:36:45,583 --> 00:36:49,000 of a directed panspermia project 691 00:36:49,167 --> 00:36:52,625 that was used by extraterrestrials, 692 00:36:52,792 --> 00:36:57,500 and we just happen to have found the evidence for it? 693 00:36:57,625 --> 00:37:01,208 I think what Dr. Wainwright discovered 694 00:37:01,375 --> 00:37:04,083 is crucial in figuring out 695 00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:08,042 the larger picture that our origins 696 00:37:08,208 --> 00:37:11,625 is not down here on Earth, but out there. 697 00:37:13,042 --> 00:37:16,250 Do the microscopic spheres found in the upper atmosphere 698 00:37:16,417 --> 00:37:19,250 provide proof that extraterrestrials 699 00:37:19,375 --> 00:37:21,542 seeded life on Earth? 700 00:37:21,708 --> 00:37:25,000 As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, 701 00:37:25,167 --> 00:37:27,167 it's an intriguing possibility. 702 00:37:27,333 --> 00:37:31,167 And they suggest further evidence of a connection 703 00:37:31,375 --> 00:37:33,500 between the planet's mysterious spheres 704 00:37:33,667 --> 00:37:37,458 and alien visitation can be found by examining 705 00:37:37,625 --> 00:37:40,500 hundreds of stone orbs discovered in Scotland 706 00:37:40,625 --> 00:37:44,750 that were used to communicate with the gods. 707 00:37:53,292 --> 00:37:55,917 The Orkney Islands, Scotland. 708 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,333 In the 19th century, 709 00:37:59,542 --> 00:38:03,083 archeologists excavating a neolithic settlement here 710 00:38:03,208 --> 00:38:06,125 discovered five small stone spheres. 711 00:38:06,292 --> 00:38:08,417 Over the years, more than 500 712 00:38:08,583 --> 00:38:11,500 have been unearthed throughout the region. 713 00:38:11,708 --> 00:38:15,167 The petrospheres in Scotland are very, very interesting. 714 00:38:15,375 --> 00:38:19,167 They appear to be of neolithic origin. 715 00:38:19,375 --> 00:38:23,333 So, we're going back to 12,000 BC to about 4500 BC. 716 00:38:23,542 --> 00:38:26,667 They're small, almost the size of ball bearings or something. 717 00:38:27,708 --> 00:38:30,458 They have geometric forms and spirals, 718 00:38:30,625 --> 00:38:34,500 and it is obvious that they were produced by humans. 719 00:38:34,667 --> 00:38:36,292 The question is, why were they produced 720 00:38:36,375 --> 00:38:37,792 and what do all the symbols mean? 721 00:38:39,167 --> 00:38:40,833 While mainstream archaeologists 722 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,000 have yet to identify the purpose of these stones, 723 00:38:44,167 --> 00:38:46,667 ancient astronaut theorists believe 724 00:38:46,875 --> 00:38:49,542 the answer can be found in local legends, 725 00:38:49,708 --> 00:38:52,250 which claim they were used to communicate 726 00:38:52,458 --> 00:38:54,958 with otherworldly beings. 727 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,625 Legend says that they could be used as oracle stones, 728 00:38:58,792 --> 00:39:00,958 that a person would ask a question, 729 00:39:01,125 --> 00:39:03,000 throw the stone on the ground, 730 00:39:03,208 --> 00:39:05,667 and they would get some sort of an answer. 731 00:39:05,875 --> 00:39:07,878 And that makes me wonder if it's possible that these 732 00:39:07,958 --> 00:39:10,833 smaller handheld stones are somehow connected 733 00:39:10,958 --> 00:39:12,667 to the larger stone spheres, 734 00:39:12,833 --> 00:39:15,583 and they're perhaps amplifiers or transmitters 735 00:39:15,750 --> 00:39:17,583 of Earth's energy, and that they all have 736 00:39:17,792 --> 00:39:20,333 some sort of an energetic function. 737 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,375 Could it be that the ancient stone spheres 738 00:39:25,542 --> 00:39:28,667 found around the world were intended to amplify 739 00:39:28,833 --> 00:39:32,917 the energy of the Earth for a purpose we have yet to discover? 740 00:39:33,083 --> 00:39:36,542 Or is our fascination with spheres simply inspired 741 00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:39,750 by the connection we feel to the spherical bodies 742 00:39:39,875 --> 00:39:42,125 we see in the heavens? 743 00:39:42,333 --> 00:39:45,042 Perhaps the explanation is more profound 744 00:39:45,250 --> 00:39:47,667 than we can even imagine. 745 00:39:48,708 --> 00:39:50,167 As a stonemason, I'm very interested 746 00:39:50,375 --> 00:39:51,795 in this mystery of the stone spheres. 747 00:39:51,875 --> 00:39:55,000 I think it's, a very enigmatic mystery. 748 00:39:55,167 --> 00:39:57,667 It's a mixture of science, geology, 749 00:39:57,875 --> 00:40:01,333 actual human manufacture, and legends of gods. 750 00:40:01,500 --> 00:40:04,625 And I feel that more and more objects like this 751 00:40:04,792 --> 00:40:06,500 may emerge because I think people are keen 752 00:40:06,708 --> 00:40:08,625 on looking at our past like never before. 753 00:40:10,333 --> 00:40:13,833 In my experience, stone speaks to humans. 754 00:40:14,042 --> 00:40:15,625 Stone has a story to tell. 755 00:40:15,750 --> 00:40:20,000 Stone is placed in specific ways with specific properties 756 00:40:20,208 --> 00:40:23,042 to emit some message, 757 00:40:23,208 --> 00:40:24,667 communication devices, maybe... 758 00:40:24,833 --> 00:40:26,417 It-it's a very interesting medium. 759 00:40:26,583 --> 00:40:30,458 And I really believe there is an understanding here 760 00:40:30,583 --> 00:40:33,792 of something larger that the stone is trying to convey to us. 761 00:40:34,750 --> 00:40:37,833 Our fascination with stone spheres, 762 00:40:38,042 --> 00:40:40,500 whether they be tiny, 763 00:40:40,708 --> 00:40:43,958 handheld, or massive, 764 00:40:44,125 --> 00:40:48,000 is something that is associated 765 00:40:48,083 --> 00:40:51,500 with connections with otherworldly environments, 766 00:40:51,667 --> 00:40:54,833 that we see spheres 767 00:40:55,042 --> 00:40:58,833 as points of communication with the other world. 768 00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:05,958 Clearly, the sphere has played a crucial part 769 00:41:06,125 --> 00:41:08,542 in all of our ancient cultures. 770 00:41:08,667 --> 00:41:11,750 And you have to ask yourself, why? 771 00:41:11,917 --> 00:41:13,833 Could there be more behind it? 772 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,250 What was the purpose of creating the spheres? 773 00:41:18,375 --> 00:41:20,167 Is it indeed communication? 774 00:41:20,292 --> 00:41:22,333 Are they information storage devices? 775 00:41:22,542 --> 00:41:26,917 A commemoration of the original seeding of the planet? 776 00:41:27,083 --> 00:41:28,833 We still don't know. 777 00:41:28,958 --> 00:41:30,667 And that just adds to the mystery. 778 00:41:31,917 --> 00:41:34,958 Do the stone spheres found throughout the globe 779 00:41:35,125 --> 00:41:38,500 serve as testament to extraterrestrial visitation 780 00:41:38,667 --> 00:41:40,417 in the distant past? 781 00:41:40,583 --> 00:41:45,167 Are they commemorating the origins of life on Earth? 782 00:41:45,375 --> 00:41:49,458 Some profound technology witnessed by our ancestors? 783 00:41:49,625 --> 00:41:52,167 Or could they even have served 784 00:41:52,375 --> 00:41:54,500 a technological function themselves 785 00:41:54,625 --> 00:41:57,583 that we might one day reactivate? 786 00:41:57,708 --> 00:42:00,583 Perhaps the mystery of the stone spheres 787 00:42:00,708 --> 00:42:03,542 will only be solved once we are reunited 788 00:42:03,750 --> 00:42:06,458 with our alien ancestors. 789 00:42:09,017 --> 00:42:13,567 Repair and Synchronization by Easy Subtitles Synchronizer 1.0.0.0 61906
