JAMES LINCOLN: Once it reaches
its critical temperature,
2
00:00:03,295 --> 00:00:05,339
it will actually levitate.
3
00:00:05,339 --> 00:00:07,758
DAVID WILCOCK: This, to me,
looks like a flying saucer.
4
00:00:07,758 --> 00:00:09,593
Could we have something
5
00:00:09,593 --> 00:00:12,262
that potentially
people could ride in?
6
00:00:12,262 --> 00:00:14,097
LINCOLN:
If you have enough magnetism,
7
00:00:14,097 --> 00:00:16,517
there's no limit
to how big this can be.
8
00:00:16,517 --> 00:00:17,935
Unbelievable.
9
00:00:17,935 --> 00:00:21,146
We're seeing a very intriguing
connection here.
10
00:00:21,146 --> 00:00:24,274
At this ancient site
of Teotihuacan,
11
00:00:24,274 --> 00:00:28,862
there may be a location in which
exotic technology was used
12
00:00:28,862 --> 00:00:31,698
to create
an electromagnetic field.
13
00:00:31,698 --> 00:00:33,367
LINCOLN:
At very low temperatures,
14
00:00:33,367 --> 00:00:35,285
mercury would display
the same behavior.
15
00:00:35,285 --> 00:00:38,705
Mercury, in fact, was the first
superconductor ever discovered.
16
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:41,792
WILCOCK: Archeologists found
a literal river
17
00:00:41,792 --> 00:00:44,253
of liquid mercury
at Teotihuacan.
18
00:00:44,253 --> 00:00:47,631
So there absolutely does
appear to be
19
00:00:47,631 --> 00:00:50,926
an advanced ancient civilization
that was here,
20
00:00:50,926 --> 00:00:56,223
and this is the actual spaceport
of this civilization.
21
00:00:56,223 --> 00:00:58,141
♪ ♪
22
00:01:28,589 --> 00:01:30,882
NARRATOR:
Mexico City.
23
00:01:30,882 --> 00:01:36,471
Beneath the current‐day capital
of Mexico lie the ruins
24
00:01:36,471 --> 00:01:40,309
of the ancient Aztec metropolis
known as Tenochtitlan.
25
00:01:42,227 --> 00:01:45,564
The Aztecs dominated
much of central Mexico
26
00:01:45,564 --> 00:01:49,693
from the 14th
to the 16th century AD,
27
00:01:49,693 --> 00:01:52,904
and Tenochtitlan is considered
28
00:01:52,904 --> 00:01:56,366
to be their first
official settlement‐‐
29
00:01:56,366 --> 00:01:58,785
an incredibly sophisticated city
30
00:01:58,785 --> 00:02:02,539
featuring a grid system
of canals and causeways.
31
00:02:04,416 --> 00:02:07,044
But according to
their historical texts,
32
00:02:07,044 --> 00:02:10,922
the Aztec civilization
did not originate here.
33
00:02:12,758 --> 00:02:14,551
DR. EDWIN BARNHART:
The Aztecs say they started
34
00:02:14,551 --> 00:02:18,013
from this place up in the north
called Chicomoztoc.
35
00:02:18,013 --> 00:02:20,182
It was a cave,
and inside that cave,
36
00:02:20,182 --> 00:02:22,768
it had seven different caverns,
37
00:02:22,768 --> 00:02:26,104
and there were said to be
seven different tribes.
38
00:02:26,104 --> 00:02:30,150
And the Aztecs say they were
part of the seven tribes
39
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:34,488
that came from the seven
chambers of Chicomoztoc.
40
00:02:34,488 --> 00:02:37,491
NARRATOR: While Chicomoztoc
was once thought
41
00:02:37,491 --> 00:02:40,369
to be a mythological place,
42
00:02:40,369 --> 00:02:44,915
some scholars believe
archaeological evidence suggests
43
00:02:44,915 --> 00:02:48,877
that it really did exist,
and is located at the site
44
00:02:48,877 --> 00:02:53,423
of the ancient pyramid complex
known today as Teotihuacan.
45
00:02:57,260 --> 00:02:59,805
BARNHART: The place of
seven caves, we think
46
00:02:59,805 --> 00:03:04,309
maybe that has actually been
located archaeologically
47
00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:09,272
at the site of the main temple
of Teotihuacan,
48
00:03:09,272 --> 00:03:11,358
called the Pyramid of the Sun,
49
00:03:11,358 --> 00:03:14,653
which sits just north
of the Valley of Mexico.
50
00:03:14,653 --> 00:03:18,824
Underneath it is actually a cave
51
00:03:18,824 --> 00:03:22,327
with seven different spots
that it extends out into.
52
00:03:22,327 --> 00:03:24,621
And that's where the Aztecs said
53
00:03:24,621 --> 00:03:27,332
their original ancestors
came from.
54
00:03:30,627 --> 00:03:32,838
NARRATOR:
In the 16th century,
55
00:03:32,838 --> 00:03:37,551
Spanish chronicler Geronimo de
Mendieta recorded the legends
56
00:03:37,551 --> 00:03:40,220
of the local native population.
57
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:43,265
According to their accounts,
the Aztec believed
58
00:03:43,265 --> 00:03:44,850
that they were
fashioned by a group
59
00:03:44,850 --> 00:03:48,103
of stranded gods
within these seven caves.
60
00:03:48,103 --> 00:03:52,941
JONATHAN YOUNG: Mendieta wrote
an account of Aztec legend.
61
00:03:52,941 --> 00:03:56,445
In this report, he describes
a giant flint knife
62
00:03:56,445 --> 00:03:58,363
landing on the Earth.
63
00:03:58,363 --> 00:04:00,949
And the Earth was trembling
and shaking
64
00:04:00,949 --> 00:04:04,077
as this enormous
flint knife landed.
65
00:04:06,413 --> 00:04:10,959
Then some 1,600 gods
disgorged from this thing,
66
00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:15,338
and they are responsible for
launching Aztec civilization.
67
00:04:17,883 --> 00:04:20,427
BARNHART: The Aztecs talk about
the many gods
68
00:04:20,427 --> 00:04:24,639
coming down to Earth
and creating humans.
69
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:30,353
They create them out of bone,
ash and their own blood.
70
00:04:30,353 --> 00:04:34,149
And they make them somewhat
in their own image.
71
00:04:34,149 --> 00:04:37,527
But they make them specifically
so that they will honor them
72
00:04:37,527 --> 00:04:38,862
and they will serve them.
73
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:41,948
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS:
All of a sudden,
74
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:44,951
there is a description
of a giant flint knife
75
00:04:44,951 --> 00:04:50,540
that descended from the sky,
and somebody emerged out of it.
76
00:04:50,540 --> 00:04:53,668
One has to wonder
77
00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:57,839
whether or not
our ancestors were witness
78
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,509
to a landing of some type
of a craft.
79
00:05:00,509 --> 00:05:06,139
If so, then
the Aztec story suggests
80
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,391
that, some point in our history,
81
00:05:08,391 --> 00:05:12,604
extraterrestrials
created mankind.
82
00:05:12,604 --> 00:05:17,692
And something very strange
was going on at Teotihuacan.
83
00:05:17,692 --> 00:05:22,447
NARRATOR: Located just 30 miles
northeast of Mexico City,
84
00:05:22,447 --> 00:05:26,076
the Teotihuacan complex
encompasses nearly
85
00:05:26,076 --> 00:05:30,372
eight square miles, and is dated
to the first century AD.
86
00:05:30,372 --> 00:05:34,000
It is the oldest
and most sophisticated city
87
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,213
of Mesoamerica, an area that
extends from northern Mexico
88
00:05:38,213 --> 00:05:40,340
down through Central America.
89
00:05:43,134 --> 00:05:45,595
The civilization
predated the Maya
90
00:05:45,595 --> 00:05:47,931
by at least a hundred years.
91
00:05:47,931 --> 00:05:50,767
At its peak, it was said
to have supported
92
00:05:50,767 --> 00:05:53,395
nearly 100,000 residents.
93
00:05:53,395 --> 00:05:58,900
It was also the largest city
in the entire Western Hemisphere
94
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:03,697
prior to the 15th century,
and served as the major commerce
95
00:06:03,697 --> 00:06:06,116
and religious center
for the region.
96
00:06:06,116 --> 00:06:08,660
BARNHART:
The significance of Teotihuacan
97
00:06:08,660 --> 00:06:11,162
cannot be overstated.
98
00:06:11,162 --> 00:06:14,124
It is the Rome of Mesoamerica.
99
00:06:14,124 --> 00:06:18,837
The things that Teotihuacan did
set the pattern
100
00:06:18,837 --> 00:06:21,339
for all other city‐states
after it.
101
00:06:23,133 --> 00:06:25,010
NARRATOR: The central features
of the complex
102
00:06:25,010 --> 00:06:27,679
are two large pyramids,
103
00:06:27,679 --> 00:06:33,393
known as the Pyramid of the Sun
and the Pyramid of the Moon,
104
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:38,064
as well as a temple dedicated
to Quetzalcoatl,
105
00:06:38,064 --> 00:06:40,525
the feathered serpent.
106
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:44,863
These structures
stand alongside a thoroughfare
107
00:06:44,863 --> 00:06:49,200
referred to as
the Avenue of the Dead.
108
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,496
Over 200 smaller buildings,
platforms and pyramids
109
00:06:53,496 --> 00:06:56,583
are found adjacent
to the Avenue.
110
00:06:56,583 --> 00:06:59,252
And there are thousands
of living quarters
111
00:06:59,252 --> 00:07:02,047
just outside the complex.
112
00:07:02,047 --> 00:07:05,842
But as incredible
as Teotihuacan is,
113
00:07:05,842 --> 00:07:09,137
no one knows exactly
who built this metropolis
114
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:12,307
or what happened
to its occupants.
115
00:07:12,307 --> 00:07:15,935
BARNHART:
Teotihuacan, despite its size,
116
00:07:15,935 --> 00:07:18,897
has no hieroglyphs whatsoever.
117
00:07:18,897 --> 00:07:20,649
There are other cultures
in Mesoamerica
118
00:07:20,649 --> 00:07:22,484
that were using writing systems.
119
00:07:22,484 --> 00:07:24,694
There's nothing like that
at Teotihuacan.
120
00:07:24,694 --> 00:07:28,531
So we don't really have
a clear history
121
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:32,118
of what happened at Teotihuacan.
122
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:36,831
And we can't really find
evidence of their rulers.
123
00:07:46,925 --> 00:07:51,054
...to develop a complete,
huge complex, citadel...
124
00:07:58,061 --> 00:08:00,814
WILL HART: We have such
a sophisticated site
125
00:08:00,814 --> 00:08:06,695
that embodies engineering
principles, craftsmanship, art.
126
00:08:06,695 --> 00:08:09,114
Where did it originate?
127
00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:12,409
Where are the smaller versions
of this?
128
00:08:12,409 --> 00:08:14,494
Well, we don't find any.
129
00:08:14,494 --> 00:08:18,915
So, we don't have a progression,
an evolution,
130
00:08:18,915 --> 00:08:20,500
to show where this came from.
131
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:25,380
So we have to ask:
where did it come from?
132
00:08:25,380 --> 00:08:27,048
WILCOCK: We've become
conditioned to look
133
00:08:27,048 --> 00:08:29,759
at these awesome works
of stone architecture and think,
134
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:32,512
"Oh, primitive people did that,
and they used primitive methods
135
00:08:32,512 --> 00:08:34,222
with primitive technology."
136
00:08:34,222 --> 00:08:38,643
But we have to rethink
the fundamental assumptions,
137
00:08:38,643 --> 00:08:41,688
and come to a greater and
greater level of understanding
138
00:08:41,688 --> 00:08:44,774
that the technology required to
build these artifacts, in fact,
139
00:08:44,774 --> 00:08:47,819
is greater than anything
that they possessed.
140
00:08:51,781 --> 00:08:54,284
NARRATOR: But based on
the local lore of the region,
141
00:08:54,284 --> 00:08:57,871
ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that the original
142
00:08:57,871 --> 00:09:02,125
builders of the site
may not have been human at all.
143
00:09:02,125 --> 00:09:05,170
YOUNG: All of the people
in this area felt
144
00:09:05,170 --> 00:09:10,550
this city was a sacred site
connected to a divine realm.
145
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:13,887
The population along the coast
were the Totonac.
146
00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:17,432
They believed that
the place was founded by
147
00:09:17,432 --> 00:09:20,977
a dozen sky gods‐‐
the lords of thunder.
148
00:09:25,231 --> 00:09:29,402
Other nearby Mesoamerican
cultures had their own theories.
149
00:09:29,402 --> 00:09:33,656
One associated the site
with the feathered serpent god
150
00:09:33,656 --> 00:09:36,993
Quetzalcoatl, who was said
to have come from Venus.
151
00:09:41,706 --> 00:09:45,126
It was the Aztecs
who gave the place its name,
152
00:09:45,126 --> 00:09:48,129
Teotihuacan‐‐
City of the Gods.
153
00:09:53,426 --> 00:09:56,054
The name speaks for itself.
154
00:09:56,054 --> 00:09:59,933
So one has to ask the question:
what gods?
155
00:10:04,395 --> 00:10:06,397
Who were they?
156
00:10:06,397 --> 00:10:09,818
Were they just a figment
of our ancestors' imagination,
157
00:10:09,818 --> 00:10:12,695
or did they see someone?
158
00:10:12,695 --> 00:10:14,572
Did somebody visit them
159
00:10:14,572 --> 00:10:17,575
to essentially jumpstart
civilization?
160
00:10:21,788 --> 00:10:24,791
NARRATOR:
If Teotihuacan truly was founded
161
00:10:24,791 --> 00:10:28,002
by extraterrestrial visitors
in the remote past,
162
00:10:28,002 --> 00:10:30,171
just how old might the site be?
163
00:10:32,423 --> 00:10:35,426
And could this ancient city
still hold evidence
164
00:10:35,426 --> 00:10:37,846
of alien visitation?
165
00:10:43,434 --> 00:10:44,936
NARRATOR:
Every year,
166
00:10:44,936 --> 00:10:47,021
millions of tourists
visit the ancient ruins
167
00:10:47,021 --> 00:10:49,858
of Teotihuacan.
168
00:10:49,858 --> 00:10:53,069
But most are unaware that
many of the buildings
169
00:10:53,069 --> 00:10:54,863
they see throughout the complex
170
00:10:54,863 --> 00:10:59,576
have been erected
upon much older structures.
171
00:10:59,576 --> 00:11:03,204
The Pyramid of the Sun
is believed to consist of
172
00:11:03,204 --> 00:11:06,082
a total of five layers
of pyramids,
173
00:11:06,082 --> 00:11:10,879
one built on top of the next,
like a Russian nesting doll.
174
00:11:10,879 --> 00:11:14,674
Curiously, the oldest layers
are said to exhibit
175
00:11:14,674 --> 00:11:16,968
the most advanced
building techniques.
176
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:22,307
Evidence of this older stonework
can still be found
177
00:11:22,307 --> 00:11:24,767
scattered in parts of
the complex,
178
00:11:24,767 --> 00:11:27,937
including
a largely off‐limits area
179
00:11:27,937 --> 00:11:30,565
behind the Pyramid
of the Feathered Serpent.
180
00:11:34,485 --> 00:11:37,739
This enormous stone
has been very finely cut
181
00:11:37,739 --> 00:11:40,241
by the inhabitants
of Teotihuacan.
182
00:11:40,241 --> 00:11:43,661
NARRATOR:
Local researcher Marco Vigato
183
00:11:43,661 --> 00:11:47,207
has gained unprecedented access
to this part of the site.
184
00:13:06,661 --> 00:13:09,580
NARRATOR: When archaeologist
Leopoldo Batres
185
00:13:09,580 --> 00:13:13,251
started excavating
the site in 1884,
186
00:13:13,251 --> 00:13:16,379
he discovered
the pyramids were buried
187
00:13:16,379 --> 00:13:19,007
in upwards of 12 feet of earth.
188
00:13:19,007 --> 00:13:22,719
He surmised that
only a catastrophic event
189
00:13:22,719 --> 00:13:24,512
could account for
the devastation.
190
00:13:26,806 --> 00:13:30,143
HART: It was covered
under a deep layer of earth.
191
00:13:30,143 --> 00:13:31,602
And we have to ask why.
192
00:13:31,602 --> 00:13:33,896
How did it get covered
in so much dirt?
193
00:13:33,896 --> 00:13:37,608
It would require
an enormous amount of time
194
00:13:37,608 --> 00:13:39,027
‐for nature to do it.
‐(thunder crashes)
195
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:43,573
Unless you have
a catastrophic flooding.
196
00:13:45,658 --> 00:13:47,452
DAVID CHILDRESS:
You have to ask yourself:
197
00:13:47,452 --> 00:13:49,287
was there some big cataclysm
198
00:13:49,287 --> 00:13:51,956
that occurred here
in prehistory?
199
00:13:51,956 --> 00:13:55,543
Possibly even the Great Flood
200
00:13:55,543 --> 00:13:58,963
that is spoken of in various
mythologies around the world?
201
00:13:58,963 --> 00:14:02,341
This could mean that Teotihuacan
202
00:14:02,341 --> 00:14:05,553
is actually many, many
thousands of years older
203
00:14:05,553 --> 00:14:07,722
than what archaeologists say.
204
00:14:09,474 --> 00:14:11,768
NARRATOR: According to
the accounts recorded
205
00:14:11,768 --> 00:14:13,519
by Spanish chroniclers
206
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:16,898
when they initially made contact
with the locals,
207
00:14:16,898 --> 00:14:20,485
the Aztec believed that
they were one of seven tribes
208
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:23,029
to be created by
the gods at a time
209
00:14:23,029 --> 00:14:25,114
after the world
had been wiped clean
210
00:14:25,114 --> 00:14:27,158
due to a catastrophic event.
211
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:32,538
They were the last group
to leave the caves
212
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:37,251
where they were created in order
to repopulate the world.
213
00:14:37,251 --> 00:14:39,879
YOUNG: Teotihuacan
is where they believe
214
00:14:39,879 --> 00:14:43,299
the gods had created humanity,
had created all things,
215
00:14:43,299 --> 00:14:48,262
had created the sun, which they
referred to as the "fifth sun."
216
00:14:48,262 --> 00:14:52,725
The Aztecs had a cosmology
that involved five ages.
217
00:14:52,725 --> 00:14:56,229
They were solar ages,
about 5,000 years long,
218
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:59,398
and each one terminates
in a disaster.
219
00:14:59,398 --> 00:15:03,611
The fourth age was called
the "Water Sun,"
220
00:15:03,611 --> 00:15:07,323
and it was presided over
by the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue.
221
00:15:07,323 --> 00:15:11,994
She was the goddess who,
at the end of the age,
222
00:15:11,994 --> 00:15:13,913
‐poured the deluge on the Earth,
‐(thunder crashes)
223
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:16,415
and flooded everything.
224
00:15:21,129 --> 00:15:22,755
NARRATOR:
If the origins of the site
225
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:24,590
are thousands of years older
226
00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:27,301
than mainstream
archaeologists suggest,
227
00:15:27,301 --> 00:15:29,720
might this help explain why,
228
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,306
even after decades
of excavations,
229
00:15:32,306 --> 00:15:34,225
they still haven't
found evidence
230
00:15:34,225 --> 00:15:36,394
of who the site's rulers were?
231
00:15:36,394 --> 00:15:39,355
And could it also shed new light
232
00:15:39,355 --> 00:15:42,441
on recent
perplexing discoveries?
233
00:15:44,402 --> 00:15:47,029
October, 2003.
234
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:50,741
(thunder crashes)
235
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:53,828
Torrential rains
sweep through the ruins
236
00:15:53,828 --> 00:15:56,789
of this ancient
pyramid complex...
237
00:15:56,789 --> 00:15:58,082
(thunder crashes)
238
00:15:58,082 --> 00:16:00,960
...leaving a three‐foot‐wide
sinkhole
239
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,422
at the foot of one of the site's
most important structures:
240
00:16:04,422 --> 00:16:07,466
the Temple of
the Feathered Serpent.
241
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:13,181
Archaeologists immediately
begin exploring the cavity.
242
00:16:16,684 --> 00:16:18,519
BARNHART:
What they found is the tunnel
243
00:16:18,519 --> 00:16:20,313
leading from outside the temple
244
00:16:20,313 --> 00:16:24,483
all the way to about centerline
underneath the temple.
245
00:16:24,483 --> 00:16:26,319
It was very filled in,
246
00:16:26,319 --> 00:16:29,071
probably by the Teotihuacanos
themselves.
247
00:16:29,071 --> 00:16:31,324
But it's been a slow process
to excavate.
248
00:16:32,658 --> 00:16:35,119
Halfway through down the tunnel,
249
00:16:35,119 --> 00:16:37,496
we find these two chambers
on either side.
250
00:16:42,501 --> 00:16:44,587
As they continued down,
251
00:16:44,587 --> 00:16:47,465
they found three more chambers
at the end.
252
00:16:47,465 --> 00:16:49,508
And those hold
some incredible things.
253
00:16:52,136 --> 00:16:55,389
There were many jade statues
in there.
254
00:16:56,807 --> 00:16:58,351
And ceramics.
255
00:17:01,854 --> 00:17:05,233
NARRATOR:
In April, 2015,
256
00:17:05,233 --> 00:17:07,902
after nearly 12 years
of excavations,
257
00:17:07,902 --> 00:17:11,322
archaeologist Sergio Gómez
and his team
258
00:17:11,322 --> 00:17:13,908
make another shocking discovery.
259
00:17:13,908 --> 00:17:17,620
Directly underneath
the center of the pyramid,
260
00:17:17,620 --> 00:17:20,957
they have located a vast pool
of liquid mercury.
261
00:17:24,168 --> 00:17:26,128
WILCOCK:
What makes this so interesting
262
00:17:26,128 --> 00:17:31,759
is that the mercury cannot exist
in its native form in nature.
263
00:17:33,970 --> 00:17:37,098
There is a natural minerallac
material called "cinnabar,"
264
00:17:37,098 --> 00:17:38,808
and in order to get mercury,
265
00:17:38,808 --> 00:17:42,311
you have to extract it
out of the cinnabar,
266
00:17:42,311 --> 00:17:46,566
which requires a complex process
involving high temperatures.
267
00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:48,943
TSOUKALOS:
It's a highly toxic element.
268
00:17:48,943 --> 00:17:51,320
It is difficult to extract.
269
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,575
So, the logistics behind this
are incredible.
270
00:17:55,575 --> 00:17:57,785
How was it transported there?
271
00:17:57,785 --> 00:18:01,414
Where did it come from
and for what purpose?
272
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:08,212
Also, how did our ancestors
handle liquid mercury
273
00:18:08,212 --> 00:18:09,422
without them dying out?
274
00:18:11,674 --> 00:18:14,510
Interestingly enough,
the only other site
275
00:18:14,510 --> 00:18:18,014
that features liquid mercury
is in China,
276
00:18:18,014 --> 00:18:23,227
inside the tomb
of the first emperor.
277
00:18:23,227 --> 00:18:28,482
How come there is liquid mercury
in a tomb in China,
278
00:18:28,482 --> 00:18:33,738
and now they've discovered
liquid mercury
279
00:18:33,738 --> 00:18:36,115
in Teotihuacan?
280
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:39,994
One has to ask the question:
what was it used for?
281
00:18:39,994 --> 00:18:44,665
NARRATOR: Liquid mercury
is a superconductor,
282
00:18:44,665 --> 00:18:49,295
and in our modern technological
age, this class of elements
283
00:18:49,295 --> 00:18:51,964
is being used
in revolutionary applications
284
00:18:51,964 --> 00:18:57,053
such as free‐energy generation,
advanced medical imaging
285
00:18:57,053 --> 00:19:01,307
and cutting‐edge
transportation projects.
286
00:19:01,307 --> 00:19:05,061
But why would there be
vast amounts of mercury
287
00:19:05,061 --> 00:19:08,939
found under a nearly
2,000‐year‐old pyramid?
288
00:19:08,939 --> 00:19:12,360
Could it have served
a technological purpose?
289
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:23,496
NARRATOR:
May, 2013.
290
00:19:23,496 --> 00:19:27,208
Just two years prior
to the astounding discovery
291
00:19:27,208 --> 00:19:29,752
of liquid mercury
at Teotihuacan,
292
00:19:29,752 --> 00:19:33,255
archaeologist Sergio Gómez
and his team
293
00:19:33,255 --> 00:19:35,675
made another curious find:
294
00:19:35,675 --> 00:19:38,969
hundreds of gold‐colored
metallic spheres
295
00:19:38,969 --> 00:19:41,055
scattered in the same tunnel
296
00:19:41,055 --> 00:19:43,808
beneath the Temple
of the Feathered Serpent.
297
00:19:43,808 --> 00:19:46,686
The spheres ranged in diameter
298
00:19:46,686 --> 00:19:49,313
from just one inch
up to five inches.
299
00:19:51,732 --> 00:19:53,067
There were hundreds of them.
300
00:19:53,067 --> 00:19:56,320
On the exterior,
they were burned pyrite.
301
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,949
And on the interior,
they're mostly clay.
302
00:19:59,949 --> 00:20:02,368
In fact, the entire chamber
seems to have
303
00:20:02,368 --> 00:20:06,539
flecks of this golden pyrite
or fool's gold all over it.
304
00:20:06,539 --> 00:20:08,666
I've never seen
anything like it.
305
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:13,587
I do not know what these things
are, what their meaning is.
306
00:20:13,587 --> 00:20:16,340
To my knowledge, we've never
found a chamber like that
307
00:20:16,340 --> 00:20:19,009
anywhere in Mesoamerica,
308
00:20:19,009 --> 00:20:21,512
certainly nowhere
in Teotihuacan.
309
00:20:21,512 --> 00:20:25,015
It's an enigma, and neither I
nor any of my colleagues
310
00:20:25,015 --> 00:20:26,517
know what to make of it.
311
00:20:29,812 --> 00:20:33,190
One of the findings of the
analysis of these golden spheres
312
00:20:33,190 --> 00:20:38,195
was that there are substances in
them that can't be identified,
313
00:20:38,195 --> 00:20:42,616
can't be related to other
known Earth substances.
314
00:20:42,616 --> 00:20:46,245
The archeologists themselves
cannot explain
315
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:47,997
how these were formed,
316
00:20:47,997 --> 00:20:51,292
why is there anomalous organic
material within them,
317
00:20:51,292 --> 00:20:54,920
or what purpose did they serve.
318
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,548
We have to wonder
what these pyramids
319
00:20:57,548 --> 00:20:59,592
and this whole structure
is about.
320
00:20:59,592 --> 00:21:03,012
What are these
golden spheres about?
321
00:21:03,012 --> 00:21:07,475
And why is there mercury
inside of this pyramid?
322
00:21:07,475 --> 00:21:10,728
It's almost like some
kind of alien technology
323
00:21:10,728 --> 00:21:15,024
is being used at Teotihuacan,
but we don't understand it.
324
00:21:15,024 --> 00:21:18,486
NARRATOR:
The recent finds of mercury
325
00:21:18,486 --> 00:21:21,030
and the inexplicable
golden spheres
326
00:21:21,030 --> 00:21:24,074
only add to the mystery
of the site.
327
00:21:24,074 --> 00:21:29,413
In 1906, archaeologist
Leopoldo Batres discovered
328
00:21:29,413 --> 00:21:34,210
layers of mica throughout
the Teotihuacan complex.
329
00:21:34,210 --> 00:21:37,838
The discovery of entire sheets
of this material,
330
00:21:37,838 --> 00:21:41,675
which is used in electrical
and thermal applications,
331
00:21:41,675 --> 00:21:44,804
has baffled researchers,
as it has not been found
332
00:21:44,804 --> 00:21:48,098
in any other
ancient architecture.
333
00:21:48,098 --> 00:21:51,310
In a couple of different places
in Teotihuacan,
334
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:54,230
we've discovered sheets of mica.
335
00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:58,651
The first reports of them
were supposedly that
336
00:21:58,651 --> 00:22:02,530
Leopold Batres had found
these large sheets of mica
337
00:22:02,530 --> 00:22:05,449
on top of the Temple of the Sun.
338
00:22:07,076 --> 00:22:09,119
NARRATOR:
Since that first discovery,
339
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,249
entire chambers lined with mica
have allegedly been found
340
00:22:13,249 --> 00:22:16,293
at different locations
along the Avenue of the Dead,
341
00:22:16,293 --> 00:22:20,297
but the areas are now off limits
to visitors.
342
00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:26,262
Ever since the late 1990s,
the Mexican government...
343
00:23:06,844 --> 00:23:11,807
NARRATOR: In the 1970s, author
and researcher Erich von Daniken
344
00:23:11,807 --> 00:23:16,604
got a firsthand look into
one of these mica chambers.
345
00:23:16,604 --> 00:23:20,149
I was brought there by a local
archeologist who loved my books,
346
00:23:20,149 --> 00:23:22,234
and he said he can show me
a mystery.
347
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:25,946
There is a room,
and the room has a ceiling,
348
00:23:25,946 --> 00:23:27,781
and has, of course, four walls.
349
00:23:27,781 --> 00:23:31,076
And in the four walls,
you see mica.
350
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:33,746
This mica is put in
artificially.
351
00:23:33,746 --> 00:23:36,582
It's like an insulation.
352
00:23:36,582 --> 00:23:39,293
First, you have stone,
then you have a level of mica,
353
00:23:39,293 --> 00:23:42,504
about ten centimeter,
and then again stone.
354
00:23:42,504 --> 00:23:46,675
From this chamber where
the mica is, there is a hole,
355
00:23:46,675 --> 00:23:49,803
and the hole is insulated
with mica.
356
00:23:49,803 --> 00:23:52,973
And I have been told
that the hole goes
357
00:23:52,973 --> 00:23:55,142
inside the great pyramid‐‐
358
00:23:55,142 --> 00:23:57,603
the Pyramid of the Sun
in Teotihuacan.
359
00:23:57,603 --> 00:24:00,314
That will be the next discovery.
360
00:24:02,691 --> 00:24:05,194
NARRATOR: Today, mica is used
as a heat shield
361
00:24:05,194 --> 00:24:08,322
in electronic
and aerospace industries.
362
00:24:08,322 --> 00:24:11,575
It has the unique properties
of being a good insulator
363
00:24:11,575 --> 00:24:15,204
of electricity as well as
a conductor of heat,
364
00:24:15,204 --> 00:24:18,332
and it is able
to resist temperatures
365
00:24:18,332 --> 00:24:21,168
upwards of 1,800 degrees
Fahrenheit.
366
00:24:23,045 --> 00:24:26,465
We use mica today
with high technology.
367
00:24:26,465 --> 00:24:29,176
So one has to wonder,
368
00:24:29,176 --> 00:24:33,389
why is there a mica chamber
at Teotihuacan?
369
00:24:33,389 --> 00:24:35,391
It's very brittle,
370
00:24:35,391 --> 00:24:39,436
but it's incredibly,
incredibly heat resistant.
371
00:24:39,436 --> 00:24:45,234
Why was there any need
for mica in the first place?
372
00:24:45,234 --> 00:24:48,696
GEORGE NOORY: There seems
to be a correlation, though,
373
00:24:48,696 --> 00:24:52,116
between mica, liquid mercury,
374
00:24:52,116 --> 00:24:56,495
and these orbs or spheres
that all seem to point
375
00:24:56,495 --> 00:25:00,207
to some high technology usage.
376
00:25:00,207 --> 00:25:02,001
What did they know,
377
00:25:02,001 --> 00:25:05,004
how did they know it
is anybody's guess,
378
00:25:05,004 --> 00:25:07,339
but it just sounds like
they needed these materials
379
00:25:07,339 --> 00:25:09,675
for something,
and they used them.
380
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:15,848
We have to wonder,
are we looking at a technology?
381
00:25:15,848 --> 00:25:17,891
We see components of it
382
00:25:17,891 --> 00:25:20,978
that don't make sense
just for a primitive culture.
383
00:25:20,978 --> 00:25:22,813
The pyramids
384
00:25:22,813 --> 00:25:25,399
and the various components
could've been part of
385
00:25:25,399 --> 00:25:28,110
a sophisticated
system of technology.
386
00:25:28,110 --> 00:25:31,405
NARRATOR: Ancient
astronaut theorists propose
387
00:25:31,405 --> 00:25:34,450
that the mercury, mica,
388
00:25:34,450 --> 00:25:38,287
and gold‐colored spheres
may be somehow connected
389
00:25:38,287 --> 00:25:42,750
and serve as components
of a larger device.
390
00:25:42,750 --> 00:25:45,461
They suggest
that further evidence
391
00:25:45,461 --> 00:25:48,505
can be found at the site
by examining the remnants
392
00:25:48,505 --> 00:25:51,800
of an ancient explosion.
393
00:25:56,305 --> 00:25:59,224
NARRATOR:
Teotihuacan.
394
00:25:59,224 --> 00:26:02,436
Along the Avenue of the Dead,
395
00:26:02,436 --> 00:26:04,438
multiple structures
show evidence
396
00:26:04,438 --> 00:26:06,356
of a catastrophic fire
397
00:26:06,356 --> 00:26:09,943
that consumed
portions of the temple complex.
398
00:26:09,943 --> 00:26:12,446
The damage has been attributed
399
00:26:12,446 --> 00:26:15,991
to an uprising
at the end of the sixth century,
400
00:26:15,991 --> 00:26:19,912
just before the population
entirely vanished
401
00:26:19,912 --> 00:26:21,246
without a trace.
402
00:26:23,957 --> 00:26:26,001
This structure, in particular,
403
00:26:26,001 --> 00:26:28,504
in spite of the many
modern restorations...
404
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,065
NARRATOR: According to
archaeologist Leopoldo Batres,
405
00:26:48,065 --> 00:26:50,984
who surveyed the site
in the late 19th century,
406
00:26:50,984 --> 00:26:53,862
the damage seemed too extensive
407
00:26:53,862 --> 00:26:57,074
to be attributed
to simple torch flames,
408
00:26:57,074 --> 00:27:00,869
leading researchers to explore
alternative explanations.
409
00:27:18,846 --> 00:27:21,515
NARRATOR:
Could the curious finds
410
00:27:21,515 --> 00:27:23,934
of mica and mercury at the site
411
00:27:23,934 --> 00:27:27,646
help corroborate the theory
that the burn marks we see
412
00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:29,231
along the Avenue of the Dead
413
00:27:29,231 --> 00:27:32,317
are from some sort
of mechanical explosion?
414
00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:36,655
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes,
415
00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:39,741
and they suggest that
like the Great Pyramid at Giza
416
00:27:39,741 --> 00:27:42,828
and other sites
throughout the globe,
417
00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:45,914
the structures at Teotihuacan
may have once served
418
00:27:45,914 --> 00:27:48,834
as an electromagnetic
power plant.
419
00:27:51,420 --> 00:27:53,338
Researchers proposed
that the pyramids
420
00:27:53,338 --> 00:27:56,383
constructed around the world
are, in fact, power plants.
421
00:27:56,383 --> 00:27:58,886
This is based
on our new knowledge
422
00:27:58,886 --> 00:28:00,762
that they, in fact, are designed
423
00:28:00,762 --> 00:28:03,181
to tap the resonant power
of the Earth
424
00:28:03,181 --> 00:28:06,310
and then to distribute it
around the world.
425
00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:10,063
Teotihuacan matches
precisely this model.
426
00:28:10,063 --> 00:28:11,982
It's built over caverns,
427
00:28:11,982 --> 00:28:15,444
it had liquid mercury and mica
incorporated into its design,
428
00:28:15,444 --> 00:28:18,488
and we know that the gods
came and left from this place.
429
00:28:18,488 --> 00:28:21,575
So when we put
all the pieces together,
430
00:28:21,575 --> 00:28:24,870
we're looking at Teotihuacan
as yet another example
431
00:28:24,870 --> 00:28:26,955
of the power plants of the gods.
432
00:28:28,582 --> 00:28:31,960
If it was a technological system
433
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,547
that was generating
a lot of energy, at some point,
434
00:28:35,547 --> 00:28:38,133
there could've been
a malfunction in it.
435
00:28:38,133 --> 00:28:42,137
If there was energy,
the mica found at the site
436
00:28:42,137 --> 00:28:44,181
was supposed to shield it,
437
00:28:44,181 --> 00:28:47,351
and mercury‐‐
was also found at the site‐‐
438
00:28:47,351 --> 00:28:49,478
seems to have been used.
439
00:28:49,478 --> 00:28:52,230
Perhaps we had
some kind of accident there
440
00:28:52,230 --> 00:28:54,107
at some point in time.
441
00:29:02,032 --> 00:29:05,118
NARRATOR: If Teotihuacan served
as an ancient power plant,
442
00:29:05,118 --> 00:29:08,163
generating
electromagnetic energy,
443
00:29:08,163 --> 00:29:10,749
just what role
did the liquid mercury‐‐
444
00:29:10,749 --> 00:29:12,584
recently discovered
at the site‐‐
445
00:29:12,584 --> 00:29:14,294
play in such a scenario?
446
00:29:16,672 --> 00:29:19,549
There's stories of mercury
being used in spacecraft.
447
00:29:21,635 --> 00:29:23,971
And some of
the ancient Indian epics
448
00:29:23,971 --> 00:29:27,182
talk about mercury
as part of the vimanas
449
00:29:27,182 --> 00:29:29,142
and the mechanics
of these craft.
450
00:29:29,142 --> 00:29:33,230
So here we have the idea
that this mercury
451
00:29:33,230 --> 00:29:36,900
that's being found
at archeological sites
452
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:40,946
is really part of the propulsion
of some of the craft
453
00:29:40,946 --> 00:29:44,533
that the extraterrestrials
were using here on Earth.
454
00:29:48,704 --> 00:29:50,247
NARRATOR:
Los Angeles, California.
455
00:29:52,416 --> 00:29:56,044
February, 2017.
456
00:29:56,044 --> 00:30:00,340
Physicist James Lincoln
has been experimenting
457
00:30:00,340 --> 00:30:02,342
with superconductors
like mercury
458
00:30:02,342 --> 00:30:04,428
and the levitation effects
produced
459
00:30:04,428 --> 00:30:08,265
in the presence of strong
electromagnetic fields,
460
00:30:08,265 --> 00:30:10,517
such as those
suspected of being generated
461
00:30:10,517 --> 00:30:12,936
by the ancient pyramid
power plants.
462
00:30:14,855 --> 00:30:17,858
Author and researcher
David Wilcock
463
00:30:17,858 --> 00:30:19,609
visited his laboratory
464
00:30:19,609 --> 00:30:22,529
to see how electromagnetism
creates an environment
465
00:30:22,529 --> 00:30:24,614
that allows mercury to levitate.
466
00:30:24,614 --> 00:30:27,242
‐Good to meet you.
‐Nice to meet you. Yes.
467
00:30:27,242 --> 00:30:28,744
NARRATOR:
The demonstration will utilize
468
00:30:28,744 --> 00:30:30,829
a conventional
superconductor material
469
00:30:30,829 --> 00:30:33,498
in place of mercury
due to its toxicity.
470
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:38,462
What am I about to see here?
471
00:30:38,462 --> 00:30:41,506
Now, one of the signatures
of a superconductor
472
00:30:41,506 --> 00:30:43,967
is that once it reaches
its critical temperature,
473
00:30:43,967 --> 00:30:46,303
as being it's cold enough,
474
00:30:46,303 --> 00:30:49,848
it will actually levitate
over a magnetic field.
475
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:51,683
That is unbelievable.
476
00:30:51,683 --> 00:30:54,811
LINCOLN: We can actually
make it go around the track.
477
00:30:54,811 --> 00:30:58,315
This is the signature behavior
of any superconductor
478
00:30:58,315 --> 00:31:00,484
in the presence
of a magnetic field.
479
00:31:00,484 --> 00:31:03,236
It generates electricity
flowing in loops
480
00:31:03,236 --> 00:31:04,988
inside of a superconductor.
481
00:31:04,988 --> 00:31:07,240
‐That's why it floats.
‐WILCOCK: Wow.
482
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,202
There's not really
an upper limit
483
00:31:10,202 --> 00:31:11,745
to how fast this thing can go.
484
00:31:11,745 --> 00:31:13,705
WILCOCK:
So there's a flow of current
485
00:31:13,705 --> 00:31:16,166
in the disc as it's going?
486
00:31:16,166 --> 00:31:19,252
LINCOLN: Yes. Once these
electric currents are generated,
487
00:31:19,252 --> 00:31:21,254
it's free and permanent
488
00:31:21,254 --> 00:31:23,632
and can last
as long as you can keep it cold.
489
00:31:23,632 --> 00:31:26,968
WILCOCK:
Wow. Very, very cool.
490
00:31:26,968 --> 00:31:30,305
So if you had mercury here
491
00:31:30,305 --> 00:31:32,349
and got it really, really cold,
th‐this same type
492
00:31:32,349 --> 00:31:34,476
of effect would occur, or would
we notice anything different?
493
00:31:34,476 --> 00:31:36,269
LINCOLN: We would be able
to get the same effect
494
00:31:36,269 --> 00:31:38,313
if we managed
to get this cold enough.
495
00:31:38,313 --> 00:31:41,066
‐Okay. ‐Mercury is also
a superconductor.
496
00:31:41,066 --> 00:31:42,526
In fact, it was
the first superconductor
497
00:31:42,526 --> 00:31:44,027
‐ever discovered.
‐Okay.
498
00:31:44,027 --> 00:31:47,656
And this one can be anywhere,
any orientation,
499
00:31:47,656 --> 00:31:49,825
whether I put it on
forward or backwards
500
00:31:49,825 --> 00:31:53,453
or even upside down,
it still works.
501
00:31:56,623 --> 00:31:58,542
And here we're seeing it
502
00:31:58,542 --> 00:32:02,587
held perfectly in place,
zipping along on its own.
503
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:04,673
Now that is truly remarkable.
504
00:32:07,300 --> 00:32:10,804
This, to me, looks
like a flying saucer.
505
00:32:10,804 --> 00:32:13,515
It does look a lot like
a flying saucer.
506
00:32:13,515 --> 00:32:15,642
In fact, you can get it
to avoid obstacles,
507
00:32:15,642 --> 00:32:18,645
like you would want
from any hovering technology.
508
00:32:18,645 --> 00:32:21,148
So, here I'm placing some
little debris on the track,
509
00:32:21,148 --> 00:32:24,693
and let's see if it, uh, can get
over this, uh, pile of sticks.
510
00:32:24,693 --> 00:32:25,944
WILCOCK:
Sure.
511
00:32:28,196 --> 00:32:29,865
‐LINCOLN: No trouble.
‐No resistance.
512
00:32:29,865 --> 00:32:31,783
Yeah, so now you can imagine it
flying over forests,
513
00:32:31,783 --> 00:32:33,618
if it was large enough,
514
00:32:33,618 --> 00:32:36,746
and if you managed to have
enough magnetism on the surface
515
00:32:36,746 --> 00:32:38,248
for that to happen.
516
00:32:38,248 --> 00:32:39,457
Unbelievable.
517
00:32:42,878 --> 00:32:46,798
If this technology
could be scaled up,
518
00:32:46,798 --> 00:32:50,635
could we have something that
potentially people could be able
519
00:32:50,635 --> 00:32:53,430
to ride in as a craft?
520
00:32:53,430 --> 00:32:56,391
LINCOLN: Yeah. If you keep
the superconductor cold.
521
00:32:56,391 --> 00:32:58,101
‐WILCOCK: Huh.
‐LINCOLN: And you imagine
522
00:32:58,101 --> 00:32:59,895
‐it has to have a chamber
of liquid nitrogen. ‐Right.
523
00:32:59,895 --> 00:33:02,272
And you have enough magnetism
over a surface,
524
00:33:02,272 --> 00:33:06,443
then there's no upper limit
to how big this can be.
525
00:33:06,443 --> 00:33:08,653
So, if there were
some way to make this
526
00:33:08,653 --> 00:33:13,241
a self‐contained
continuously cooling unit,
527
00:33:13,241 --> 00:33:15,785
theoretically at least,
would it be able
528
00:33:15,785 --> 00:33:18,496
to keep doing what it's doing
right now indefinitely?
529
00:33:18,496 --> 00:33:20,624
LINCOLN:
Well, yes.
530
00:33:20,624 --> 00:33:23,001
It will last, uh,
as long as it stays cold.
531
00:33:23,001 --> 00:33:25,712
People have had superconductors
lasting for years already
532
00:33:25,712 --> 00:33:27,672
with currents flowing in them.
533
00:33:27,672 --> 00:33:29,883
And there's a lot of places
that are cold enough
534
00:33:29,883 --> 00:33:31,343
that that would work.
535
00:33:31,343 --> 00:33:33,678
‐For example, outer space.
‐WILCOCK: Right.
536
00:33:36,014 --> 00:33:39,059
We're seeing a very
intriguing connection here.
537
00:33:39,059 --> 00:33:43,313
Teotihuacan may be a location
538
00:33:43,313 --> 00:33:45,815
in which exotic
technology was used
539
00:33:45,815 --> 00:33:48,860
to create
an electromagnetic field.
540
00:33:48,860 --> 00:33:51,279
And therefore,
the area around the pyramid
541
00:33:51,279 --> 00:33:54,407
may have been an area
in which levitation
542
00:33:54,407 --> 00:33:56,993
was much easier
for a flying saucer
543
00:33:56,993 --> 00:33:59,537
that involved liquid mercury
as a fuel.
544
00:34:01,581 --> 00:34:05,585
Teotihuacan may have been
the Cape Canaveral of its day.
545
00:34:07,379 --> 00:34:08,964
Today most space facilities
546
00:34:08,964 --> 00:34:12,842
are built as close
to the equator as possible
547
00:34:12,842 --> 00:34:16,721
to take advantage
of the Earth's rotation.
548
00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:20,225
And Teotihuacan is
relatively near the equator,
549
00:34:20,225 --> 00:34:23,311
and so it would be an ideal spot
550
00:34:23,311 --> 00:34:26,481
as a spaceport
for extraterrestrial vehicles
551
00:34:26,481 --> 00:34:28,858
to land and take off.
552
00:34:31,486 --> 00:34:34,364
NARRATOR:
Is it possible that Teotihuacan
553
00:34:34,364 --> 00:34:37,701
functioned as some sort
of extraterrestrial spaceport,
554
00:34:37,701 --> 00:34:42,455
one capable of generating
electromagnetic power
555
00:34:42,455 --> 00:34:46,126
to support interstellar craft
fueled by liquid mercury?
556
00:34:46,126 --> 00:34:49,546
Perhaps further evidence
can be found
557
00:34:49,546 --> 00:34:54,843
by examining a planetary map
encoded in the city's layout.
558
00:35:00,265 --> 00:35:03,560
NARRATOR:
March, 2017.
559
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,231
Archaeologists continue to dig
under the pyramid complex,
560
00:35:08,231 --> 00:35:11,109
in an attempt to answer
the many mysteries
561
00:35:11,109 --> 00:35:14,154
of Teotihuacan.
562
00:35:14,154 --> 00:35:17,115
The discoveries
of liquid mercury,
563
00:35:17,115 --> 00:35:20,076
walls lined with mica,
564
00:35:20,076 --> 00:35:24,039
and strange artifacts
like the golden spheres
565
00:35:24,039 --> 00:35:27,334
point to the possibility
that an advanced society
566
00:35:27,334 --> 00:35:29,336
once occupied this city.
567
00:35:29,336 --> 00:35:34,716
But some researchers suggest
even greater clues can be found
568
00:35:34,716 --> 00:35:39,137
by examining the layout
of the entire complex.
569
00:35:39,137 --> 00:35:44,392
Three of the major structures
contained within Teotihuacan
570
00:35:44,392 --> 00:35:48,063
have been found to line up with
the three belt stars of Orion,
571
00:35:48,063 --> 00:35:51,191
a connection
that is also mirrored
572
00:35:51,191 --> 00:35:55,737
in the layout of the pyramids
at the Giza Plateau in Egypt.
573
00:35:55,737 --> 00:35:59,366
And the positioning
of the main thoroughfare,
574
00:35:59,366 --> 00:36:01,493
known as the Avenue of the Dead,
575
00:36:01,493 --> 00:36:04,287
is directed toward
the Pleiades star cluster.
576
00:36:06,539 --> 00:36:09,084
But perhaps the most
intriguing connection
577
00:36:09,084 --> 00:36:11,461
was proposed in the 1970s
578
00:36:11,461 --> 00:36:15,757
by American engineer
Hugh Harleston Jr.
579
00:36:15,757 --> 00:36:18,385
HART:
In 1972, Hugh Harleston
580
00:36:18,385 --> 00:36:21,262
undertook a study of the site.
581
00:36:21,262 --> 00:36:23,723
And he was trying
to determine mathematically
582
00:36:23,723 --> 00:36:26,142
if he could break down
or discover
583
00:36:26,142 --> 00:36:29,312
a standard unit of measure
at Teotihuacan.
584
00:36:29,312 --> 00:36:31,898
The conclusion that
Harleston came up with
585
00:36:31,898 --> 00:36:35,819
in all his measurements,
he found consistent numbers.
586
00:36:35,819 --> 00:36:38,988
And he discovered
that they reflected
587
00:36:38,988 --> 00:36:43,118
mathematical principles
that involved units, intervals,
588
00:36:43,118 --> 00:36:46,162
and the spacing of the planets.
589
00:36:46,162 --> 00:36:51,084
WILCOCK: He found the actual
derivation of the solar system
590
00:36:51,084 --> 00:36:53,878
with the planets, their correct
distances from one another,
591
00:36:53,878 --> 00:36:56,798
actually laid out
592
00:36:56,798 --> 00:37:00,427
in the spacings of the monuments
at this complex.
593
00:37:00,427 --> 00:37:04,305
NARRATOR: Harleston noted
that the intervals
594
00:37:04,305 --> 00:37:07,600
between the major structures
corresponded exactly
595
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,937
to the distances
between the various planets.
596
00:37:10,937 --> 00:37:14,149
WILCOCK:
There is a very clear rationale
597
00:37:14,149 --> 00:37:16,359
for the positioning
of these artifacts,
598
00:37:16,359 --> 00:37:18,945
and it's only once you
get into their measurements
599
00:37:18,945 --> 00:37:21,740
that you start to see
compelling proof
600
00:37:21,740 --> 00:37:23,950
that this is intended to be
601
00:37:23,950 --> 00:37:27,078
an accurate map
of our solar system.
602
00:37:29,664 --> 00:37:32,167
NARRATOR: Even the distance
of the asteroid belt
603
00:37:32,167 --> 00:37:35,378
between Mars and Jupiter
was correctly plotted
604
00:37:35,378 --> 00:37:38,631
by the diversion of the San Juan
River through the site.
605
00:37:38,631 --> 00:37:41,551
CHILDRESS:
Harleston believed
606
00:37:41,551 --> 00:37:44,679
that a man‐made canal
that was cut
607
00:37:44,679 --> 00:37:47,557
through Teotihuacan
represented the asteroid belt,
608
00:37:47,557 --> 00:37:51,102
which was not something known
to ancient people.
609
00:37:53,271 --> 00:37:56,065
Whoever built Teotihuacan,
610
00:37:56,065 --> 00:37:58,568
they had full knowledge
of our solar system
611
00:37:58,568 --> 00:38:02,197
and knowledge that ancient
people could not have had.
612
00:38:02,197 --> 00:38:05,492
NARRATOR:
Three and a half miles away,
613
00:38:05,492 --> 00:38:08,077
on top of the Cerro Gordo
mountain range,
614
00:38:08,077 --> 00:38:13,666
Harleston also located the ruins
of the Temple of Xóchitl,
615
00:38:13,666 --> 00:38:17,170
which fell directly in sight
line of the Avenue of the Dead.
616
00:38:19,506 --> 00:38:21,257
CHILDRESS:
Harleston believed
617
00:38:21,257 --> 00:38:24,677
that this temple was
mathematically showing
618
00:38:24,677 --> 00:38:27,972
that there was
a planet beyond Pluto,
619
00:38:27,972 --> 00:38:30,391
twice as far as Pluto,
620
00:38:30,391 --> 00:38:34,687
that was somehow orbiting around
our solar system.
621
00:38:34,687 --> 00:38:38,650
NARRATOR:
Curiously, in 2016,
622
00:38:38,650 --> 00:38:40,652
planetary scientists
623
00:38:40,652 --> 00:38:43,988
from the California Institute
of Technology announced
624
00:38:43,988 --> 00:38:47,200
that they had found preliminary
evidence of the existence
625
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,787
of an unknown planet
beyond Pluto.
626
00:38:50,787 --> 00:38:54,082
Would such a revelation
give further credence
627
00:38:54,082 --> 00:38:57,460
to the idea that the inhabitants
of Teotihuacan
628
00:38:57,460 --> 00:39:00,505
had intimate knowledge
of our solar system,
629
00:39:00,505 --> 00:39:03,633
and that the site served
as an ancient spaceport,
630
00:39:03,633 --> 00:39:08,555
one that might still
be active today?
631
00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:18,898
NARRATOR:
May 4, 2015.
632
00:39:18,898 --> 00:39:23,570
A tourist visiting the ancient
pyramid complex of Teotihuacan
633
00:39:23,570 --> 00:39:26,573
takes a photograph featuring
the Pyramid of the Sun.
634
00:39:26,573 --> 00:39:28,324
(camera whirs, clicks)
635
00:39:28,324 --> 00:39:32,412
He thinks nothing of it
until he later reviews the photo
636
00:39:32,412 --> 00:39:36,207
and notices two strange objects
hovering over the pyramid.
637
00:39:39,502 --> 00:39:41,838
Upon closer examination,
638
00:39:41,838 --> 00:39:46,301
they appear to be silver
disk‐shaped craft.
639
00:39:46,301 --> 00:39:49,470
What's strange about
the two UFOs photographed
640
00:39:49,470 --> 00:39:52,724
above the Pyramid of the Sun
at Teotihuacan is
641
00:39:52,724 --> 00:39:55,101
‐that only ten seconds later,
‐(camera clicks)
642
00:39:55,101 --> 00:40:01,649
a second photograph was taken
and those two objects were gone.
643
00:40:01,649 --> 00:40:05,486
So, clearly, we're not talking
about Mylar balloons here.
644
00:40:05,486 --> 00:40:07,947
There's nothing floating
in the sky anymore.
645
00:40:07,947 --> 00:40:11,200
And if they would have been
Mylar balloons, well,
646
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,079
they don't move that fast
to just (whistles) disappear.
647
00:40:17,415 --> 00:40:19,751
There has been a long history
648
00:40:19,751 --> 00:40:23,338
of UFO sightings
and unusual events
649
00:40:23,338 --> 00:40:27,800
in Teotihuacan, particularly
around the pyramids,
650
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,054
which perhaps
are somehow attracting UFOs
651
00:40:31,054 --> 00:40:32,555
and extraterrestrials.
652
00:40:36,851 --> 00:40:39,604
NARRATOR: Is there more going on
at Teotihuacan
653
00:40:39,604 --> 00:40:41,564
than archaeologists realize?
654
00:40:43,858 --> 00:40:47,070
Could there be secrets about
our extraterrestrial past
655
00:40:47,070 --> 00:40:51,574
left for us to discover
at this ancient city?
656
00:40:51,574 --> 00:40:53,701
HART:
At Teotihuacan,
657
00:40:53,701 --> 00:40:57,413
so far only ten percent
has been excavated.
658
00:40:57,413 --> 00:41:02,126
That means there's 90%
that remains to be dug up.
659
00:41:02,126 --> 00:41:05,546
How much more is there
at the site?
660
00:41:05,546 --> 00:41:07,423
We have no idea.
661
00:41:07,423 --> 00:41:11,052
But we have to ask,
if we continue and press on,
662
00:41:11,052 --> 00:41:14,681
might we find the artifacts,
the components
663
00:41:14,681 --> 00:41:16,891
that start to put
the pieces together,
664
00:41:16,891 --> 00:41:20,561
and perhaps lead us
to a much clearer concept
665
00:41:20,561 --> 00:41:24,065
of who these beings were
that built this?
666
00:41:24,065 --> 00:41:26,359
CHILDRESS: We don't know
what they will find
667
00:41:26,359 --> 00:41:28,069
in the future, but I suspect
668
00:41:28,069 --> 00:41:31,239
they'll make
some startling discoveries.
669
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:35,284
There's many things in our past
that we just don't understand,
670
00:41:35,284 --> 00:41:38,997
but it's possible that
the answers, or some of them,
671
00:41:38,997 --> 00:41:40,373
are at Teotihuacan.
672
00:41:40,373 --> 00:41:42,750
NARRATOR:
Is it possible
673
00:41:42,750 --> 00:41:45,128
that the ancient complex
of Teotihuacan
674
00:41:45,128 --> 00:41:47,714
was an
extraterrestrial spaceport?
675
00:41:47,714 --> 00:41:50,925
Might it still hold
the very fuel
676
00:41:50,925 --> 00:41:54,971
that was used
to power alien craft?
677
00:41:54,971 --> 00:41:58,016
Perhaps the secrets
of Teotihuacan
678
00:41:58,016 --> 00:42:00,309
will ultimately be revealed
679
00:42:00,309 --> 00:42:06,435
in time for mankind's
alien ancestors to return.
