00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:03,337
Rockets...
2
00:00:03,872 --> 00:00:09,945
Hurling space probes deep into the cosmos.
3
00:00:10,013 --> 00:00:12,848
Sound waves... compelling solid
4
00:00:12,882 --> 00:00:16,352
objects to float in midair.
5
00:00:16,386 --> 00:00:20,023
Laser beams... vaporizing
6
00:00:20,058 --> 00:00:22,926
targets with pinpoint accuracy.
7
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,462
Are these stunning examples of
8
00:00:25,530 --> 00:00:28,532
mankind's modern technology?
9
00:00:28,566 --> 00:00:31,204
Or are they merely recent
10
00:00:31,238 --> 00:00:33,874
incarnations of scientific
11
00:00:33,909 --> 00:00:35,443
achievements that have roots
12
00:00:35,477 --> 00:00:38,382
stretching back to the ancient past?
13
00:00:38,416 --> 00:00:41,220
We have several cultures who depict
14
00:00:41,254 --> 00:00:43,456
modern technology being used
15
00:00:43,490 --> 00:00:44,992
thousands of years ago.
16
00:00:45,060 --> 00:00:47,428
They were working with technology that
17
00:00:47,463 --> 00:00:50,433
could literally break the earth in two.
18
00:00:50,468 --> 00:00:53,904
How could they have had these advanced
19
00:00:53,939 --> 00:00:56,407
weapons that we've only just
20
00:00:56,441 --> 00:00:58,976
acquired ourselves today?
21
00:00:59,011 --> 00:01:04,916
Something in our past has been lost,
22
00:01:04,950 --> 00:01:08,486
and we're looking for that answer.
23
00:01:08,521 --> 00:01:10,455
Millions of people
24
00:01:10,490 --> 00:01:12,424
around the world believe we have
25
00:01:12,459 --> 00:01:14,127
been visited in the past by
26
00:01:14,162 --> 00:01:16,263
extraterrestrial beings.
27
00:01:16,297 --> 00:01:18,999
What if it were true?
28
00:01:19,034 --> 00:01:21,035
Did ancient aliens really help
29
00:01:21,102 --> 00:01:24,004
to shape our history?
30
00:01:24,039 --> 00:01:26,440
And did mankind's cutting-edge
31
00:01:26,475 --> 00:01:28,443
technology spring from our
32
00:01:28,478 --> 00:01:30,847
imagination, or could it have
33
00:01:30,881 --> 00:01:35,954
come from a source much farther away?

Alien Tech
Original Air Date on December 02, 2010
35
00:02:06,190 --> 00:02:09,993
In the early morning hours
of November 5, 2005,
36
00:02:10,028 --> 00:02:13,264
the luxury cruise ship
37
00:02:13,332 --> 00:02:15,334
the Seabourn Spirit found
38
00:02:15,368 --> 00:02:17,903
itself under attack by pirates
39
00:02:17,938 --> 00:02:21,942
in the waters off the coast of Somalia.
40
00:02:22,010 --> 00:02:24,044
But the Somali bandits were
41
00:02:24,079 --> 00:02:26,080
successfully repelled by a
42
00:02:26,114 --> 00:02:27,849
relatively new and formidable
43
00:02:27,883 --> 00:02:31,186
defensive weapon: A long range
44
00:02:31,221 --> 00:02:35,024
acoustic device or LRAD.
45
00:02:35,058 --> 00:02:37,393
Manufactured by the LRAD
46
00:02:37,427 --> 00:02:40,129
Corporation, this sonic device can,
47
00:02:40,197 --> 00:02:42,899
when focused on a target,
48
00:02:42,933 --> 00:02:45,468
produce a piercing sound that
49
00:02:45,536 --> 00:02:48,538
can exceed 150 decibels.
50
00:02:48,572 --> 00:02:51,241
Enough to cause temporary blindness,
51
00:02:51,276 --> 00:02:54,579
nausea and permanent hearing loss.
52
00:02:54,580 --> 00:02:58,283
The U.S. army used
sonic weapons in Iraq.
53
00:02:58,318 --> 00:03:00,453
They're used in crowd control.
54
00:03:00,487 --> 00:03:02,288
There are certain types of low
55
00:03:02,322 --> 00:03:05,825
rumbles and signals that
will affect a person.
56
00:03:05,893 --> 00:03:08,061
They make you feel sick.
57
00:03:08,062 --> 00:03:11,264
The LRAD is currently used by law
58
00:03:11,299 --> 00:03:13,400
enforcement, the military and
59
00:03:13,434 --> 00:03:15,936
private security, and is
60
00:03:15,970 --> 00:03:18,972
considered the ultimate in sonic weaponry.
61
00:03:21,242 --> 00:03:25,845
But is the LRAD really a
21st-century invention?
62
00:03:25,913 --> 00:03:27,447
Or is there evidence that
63
00:03:27,481 --> 00:03:29,415
similar audio weapons existed
64
00:03:29,450 --> 00:03:33,486
in ancient times?
65
00:03:33,521 --> 00:03:36,423
Approximately 17 Miles northeast
66
00:03:36,458 --> 00:03:39,260
of Jerusalem lies the ancient
67
00:03:39,294 --> 00:03:42,030
ruins of the city of Jericho.
68
00:03:42,098 --> 00:03:44,867
Here, archaeologists have
69
00:03:44,934 --> 00:03:46,201
uncovered evidence of
70
00:03:46,269 --> 00:03:49,538
settlements dating back to 9000 BC.
71
00:03:49,606 --> 00:03:52,274
According to the Hebrew Bible,
72
00:03:52,308 --> 00:03:54,309
Jericho is believed to be
73
00:03:54,343 --> 00:03:56,211
where God spoke to Joshua,
74
00:03:56,279 --> 00:03:58,113
the successor to Moses,
75
00:03:58,148 --> 00:04:00,182
and instructed him to march
76
00:04:00,216 --> 00:04:02,117
around the walled city once
77
00:04:02,151 --> 00:04:04,286
every six days with seven
78
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,388
priests carrying rams' horns
79
00:04:06,456 --> 00:04:08,390
and followed by the ark of the
80
00:04:08,458 --> 00:04:10,292
covenant, the golden chest
81
00:04:10,326 --> 00:04:14,297
containing the ten commandments.
82
00:04:14,331 --> 00:04:17,033
Then, on the seventh day, under
83
00:04:17,067 --> 00:04:19,969
orders by God, Joshua and the
84
00:04:20,004 --> 00:04:21,838
israelites marched around the
85
00:04:21,872 --> 00:04:24,474
perimeter of the city one last time.
86
00:04:26,077 --> 00:04:30,013
But this time, they blew the rams' horns.
87
00:04:30,048 --> 00:04:34,317
The walls of Jericho fell...
88
00:04:34,352 --> 00:04:37,220
And the city was sacked.
89
00:04:41,893 --> 00:04:44,193
In the old testament,
90
00:04:44,227 --> 00:04:44,861
you see very clear
91
00:04:44,895 --> 00:04:47,864
descriptions in Joshua 6 about
92
00:04:47,898 --> 00:04:50,032
the Shofar, which is described
93
00:04:50,067 --> 00:04:51,501
as a trumpet that was used in
94
00:04:51,535 --> 00:04:53,202
the battle of Jericho to
95
00:04:53,237 --> 00:04:56,072
actually bring the walls down.
96
00:04:58,375 --> 00:05:00,442
To religious scholars,
97
00:05:00,510 --> 00:05:03,179
the collapse of Jericho's
walls was a miracle.
98
00:05:03,214 --> 00:05:05,381
To most modern day scientists
99
00:05:05,416 --> 00:05:07,851
and historians, the destruction
100
00:05:07,885 --> 00:05:11,088
was most probably caused by an earthquake.
101
00:05:11,122 --> 00:05:14,858
But could it have been something else?
102
00:05:14,892 --> 00:05:16,860
Could the israelites have
103
00:05:16,894 --> 00:05:20,264
possessed advanced sound wave technology?
104
00:05:20,298 --> 00:05:23,034
If so, where did it come from?
105
00:05:23,035 --> 00:05:25,870
In the scriptures, we have a
106
00:05:25,904 --> 00:05:27,038
fascinating story about the
107
00:05:27,072 --> 00:05:28,539
fall of the walls of Jericho.
108
00:05:28,574 --> 00:05:30,875
The armies were told to circle
109
00:05:30,909 --> 00:05:32,209
the wall repeatedly, and then
110
00:05:32,244 --> 00:05:33,878
finally blow their horns,
111
00:05:33,912 --> 00:05:35,212
and down came the walls.
112
00:05:35,247 --> 00:05:36,280
And we know there was a
113
00:05:36,315 --> 00:05:37,881
powerful presence.
114
00:05:37,916 --> 00:05:39,282
The ark of the covenant,
115
00:05:39,317 --> 00:05:41,885
this mysterious, sacred item,
116
00:05:41,919 --> 00:05:43,253
was with them at all times, which,
117
00:05:43,287 --> 00:05:45,122
of course, was part of the event
118
00:05:45,157 --> 00:05:46,891
and part of the fall of the
119
00:05:46,925 --> 00:05:49,927
walls of Jericho.
120
00:05:49,928 --> 00:05:54,900
The idea that some kind
of sonic weapon was
121
00:05:54,935 --> 00:05:58,104
used to destroy these huge,
122
00:05:58,138 --> 00:06:00,140
thick, ancient walls to allow
123
00:06:00,207 --> 00:06:01,908
the israelites to basically
124
00:06:01,943 --> 00:06:04,778
take over that city is
a fascinating one.
125
00:06:04,813 --> 00:06:07,781
So what kind of technology were they using?
126
00:06:07,816 --> 00:06:10,885
It sounds utterly fantastic to
127
00:06:10,919 --> 00:06:12,219
us that they could have had some
128
00:06:12,254 --> 00:06:15,122
kind of advanced alien technology.
129
00:06:15,157 --> 00:06:18,326
It's clearly what they're describing.
130
00:06:18,327 --> 00:06:22,396
There is little doubt that the ark of
131
00:06:22,431 --> 00:06:24,799
the covenant was a weapon.
132
00:06:24,833 --> 00:06:26,934
It was described as a weapon,
133
00:06:26,969 --> 00:06:29,170
famously, when the israelites
134
00:06:29,238 --> 00:06:31,239
crossed over into Canaan and
135
00:06:31,273 --> 00:06:34,909
they had to pass by Jericho.
136
00:06:34,910 --> 00:06:37,245
And it could be that there was
137
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:39,815
some technology.
138
00:06:39,849 --> 00:06:41,985
We do not know what that
139
00:06:42,019 --> 00:06:43,453
technology was, but there was
140
00:06:43,487 --> 00:06:45,422
clearly an association between
141
00:06:45,456 --> 00:06:47,291
the ark and the falling down of
142
00:06:47,325 --> 00:06:49,427
the walls, and that's the reason
143
00:06:49,461 --> 00:06:51,829
that the ark was sent around
144
00:06:51,863 --> 00:06:54,865
the periphery of the city.
145
00:06:58,970 --> 00:07:00,838
According to many
146
00:07:00,872 --> 00:07:02,807
ancient astronaut theorists,
147
00:07:02,841 --> 00:07:04,775
Moses and the israelites
148
00:07:04,810 --> 00:07:06,878
acquired a supernatural source
149
00:07:06,946 --> 00:07:09,013
of energy at Mount Sinai.
150
00:07:09,048 --> 00:07:11,382
This powerful energy source was
151
00:07:11,450 --> 00:07:13,451
later contained in the ark of
152
00:07:13,486 --> 00:07:15,320
the covenant, and would have
153
00:07:15,354 --> 00:07:16,822
provided the kind of power
154
00:07:16,856 --> 00:07:18,958
necessary to amplify Joshua's
155
00:07:18,992 --> 00:07:21,127
horns and make them into a
156
00:07:21,161 --> 00:07:23,830
powerful sonic weapon.
157
00:07:23,864 --> 00:07:25,365
What's interesting
158
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:27,200
about the battle of Jericho is
159
00:07:27,235 --> 00:07:28,968
that this particular use of the
160
00:07:29,003 --> 00:07:31,237
Shofar clearly seems to be the
161
00:07:31,305 --> 00:07:32,805
same thing that we're seeing
162
00:07:32,839 --> 00:07:34,873
with particle beam technology,
163
00:07:34,908 --> 00:07:36,975
death ray technology,
164
00:07:37,009 --> 00:07:38,843
thunderbolt technology.
165
00:07:38,878 --> 00:07:40,911
It very clearly seems that once
166
00:07:40,979 --> 00:07:43,381
again we have an
extraterrestrial technology
167
00:07:43,415 --> 00:07:45,015
that the ancient people had at
168
00:07:45,049 --> 00:07:46,817
the ready that they could use
169
00:07:46,851 --> 00:07:51,823
when needed for military campaigns.
170
00:07:51,857 --> 00:07:53,825
But even if the
171
00:07:53,860 --> 00:07:55,861
israelites possessed some sort
172
00:07:55,895 --> 00:07:57,829
of advanced extraterrestrial
173
00:07:57,864 --> 00:08:00,166
technology, could the amplified
174
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,335
sound of rams' horns really
175
00:08:02,369 --> 00:08:04,904
bring down stone walls?
176
00:08:04,939 --> 00:08:07,207
According to scientist and
177
00:08:07,241 --> 00:08:08,942
former astronaut Professor
178
00:08:09,010 --> 00:08:11,412
Taylor Wang, recent research
179
00:08:11,446 --> 00:08:13,213
into the field of physical
180
00:08:13,247 --> 00:08:15,782
acoustics suggests it is a
181
00:08:15,850 --> 00:08:17,851
distinct possibility.
182
00:08:18,852 --> 00:08:20,854
Jericho's wall breaking apart...
183
00:08:20,888 --> 00:08:22,856
if you said it has happened,
184
00:08:22,891 --> 00:08:26,795
caused by acoustics,
caused by sound...
185
00:08:26,862 --> 00:08:29,364
Well, the possibility has to be
186
00:08:29,398 --> 00:08:33,234
somehow a resonance is built in that wall.
187
00:08:33,269 --> 00:08:34,803
It may not be the whole wall...
188
00:08:34,870 --> 00:08:36,804
maybe some of the structure material.
189
00:08:36,872 --> 00:08:38,205
When that resonance happens,
190
00:08:38,239 --> 00:08:39,873
amplitude gets large enough,
191
00:08:39,908 --> 00:08:41,809
yes, it could destroy almost
192
00:08:41,876 --> 00:08:43,410
anything, because what the
193
00:08:43,444 --> 00:08:45,278
resonance does is store
194
00:08:45,313 --> 00:08:46,880
an enormous amount of energy.
195
00:08:46,914 --> 00:08:48,048
So you keep on, keep on feeding it,
196
00:08:48,082 --> 00:08:52,452
eventually it shatters everything.
197
00:08:52,486 --> 00:08:54,888
When you want
198
00:08:54,923 --> 00:08:56,390
to know how powerful sound is,
199
00:08:56,424 --> 00:08:57,458
you have to realize that the
200
00:08:57,492 --> 00:08:58,892
basic thing that sound is,
201
00:08:58,927 --> 00:09:00,394
is a pressure wave, and it will come
202
00:09:00,428 --> 00:09:01,762
down to the amount of energy you
203
00:09:01,796 --> 00:09:03,330
put into your sound wave and
204
00:09:03,398 --> 00:09:05,399
whether or not that particular
205
00:09:05,433 --> 00:09:07,334
pressure wave you generate will
206
00:09:07,402 --> 00:09:08,936
couple or impact the thing
207
00:09:08,970 --> 00:09:11,939
you're trying to destroy.
208
00:09:13,976 --> 00:09:15,777
You can make it quite powerful,
209
00:09:15,811 --> 00:09:16,778
'cause you can make a very high
210
00:09:16,812 --> 00:09:18,012
amplitude, very large pressures
211
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,113
in the sound.
212
00:09:19,148 --> 00:09:20,782
It might be at a frequency or
213
00:09:20,816 --> 00:09:21,783
amplitude where we no longer
214
00:09:21,817 --> 00:09:23,017
hear it as sound, but from a
215
00:09:23,085 --> 00:09:24,285
physics point of view, it is
216
00:09:24,319 --> 00:09:25,420
still sound because it's a
217
00:09:25,454 --> 00:09:26,787
pressure wave in the air.
218
00:09:26,822 --> 00:09:27,955
So it can get quite destructive,
219
00:09:27,989 --> 00:09:32,793
if you put enough energy into it.
220
00:09:32,827 --> 00:09:34,462
You could also think of it as a
221
00:09:34,496 --> 00:09:35,463
particle weapon because you're
222
00:09:35,497 --> 00:09:36,931
moving air around, and you would
223
00:09:36,965 --> 00:09:38,132
just need something to focus
224
00:09:38,167 --> 00:09:40,268
the sound which we know how to do.
225
00:09:40,302 --> 00:09:41,836
So that would give you a
226
00:09:41,870 --> 00:09:43,370
directed energy beam with sound.
227
00:09:43,438 --> 00:09:46,940
But if, as ancient
228
00:09:46,975 --> 00:09:48,375
astronaut theorists suggest,
229
00:09:48,443 --> 00:09:50,277
early civilizations had been
230
00:09:50,312 --> 00:09:51,812
able to harness the power of
231
00:09:51,846 --> 00:09:55,982
sound for destructive purposes,
232
00:09:56,017 --> 00:09:57,384
could there be evidence that
233
00:09:57,452 --> 00:09:59,486
such technology might also have
234
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,056
been used for a more
constructive purpose?
235
00:10:03,124 --> 00:10:04,959
Might it help to explain the
236
00:10:04,993 --> 00:10:07,828
existence of mammoth stone
237
00:10:07,862 --> 00:10:10,130
structures whose construction
238
00:10:10,165 --> 00:10:14,135
has baffled modern scientists for centuries?
239
00:10:19,839 --> 00:10:21,640
Mycenae.
240
00:10:21,675 --> 00:10:23,809
In the second millennium B.C.,
241
00:10:23,843 --> 00:10:26,377
this ancient fortress city
242
00:10:26,412 --> 00:10:30,648
dominated much of Southern Greece.
243
00:10:30,682 --> 00:10:33,483
Here, fortifications were built
244
00:10:33,518 --> 00:10:37,153
in a style known as
"cyclopean masonry",
245
00:10:37,187 --> 00:10:38,587
where huge limestone
246
00:10:38,622 --> 00:10:40,255
boulders were fitted tightly
247
00:10:40,290 --> 00:10:44,159
together without the use of mortar.
248
00:10:46,196 --> 00:10:48,430
The term "cyclopean" refers to
249
00:10:48,465 --> 00:10:50,733
the fact that... according to
250
00:10:50,767 --> 00:10:51,600
ancient myths... these
251
00:10:51,634 --> 00:10:53,335
mycenaean fortifications were
252
00:10:53,369 --> 00:10:55,237
thought to be the work of a
253
00:10:55,271 --> 00:10:57,172
strong, one-eyed race of giants
254
00:10:57,206 --> 00:11:00,776
known as the cyclopes.
255
00:11:00,810 --> 00:11:03,746
When you look at Mycenae in Greece,
256
00:11:03,780 --> 00:11:05,815
you're confronted with an anomalous
257
00:11:05,849 --> 00:11:07,283
civilization, really.
258
00:11:07,318 --> 00:11:09,352
It is a city which people who
259
00:11:09,386 --> 00:11:11,621
looked at it said, "only the
260
00:11:11,655 --> 00:11:13,189
cyclops could have built this."
261
00:11:13,223 --> 00:11:15,458
The cyclops is, perhaps not by
262
00:11:15,492 --> 00:11:18,494
coincidence, a mythical creature.
263
00:11:18,495 --> 00:11:19,863
So we really are confronted
264
00:11:19,897 --> 00:11:21,597
with the fact that people are
265
00:11:21,632 --> 00:11:24,633
saying mankind could not have built this.
266
00:11:24,634 --> 00:11:26,369
It has to have been something
267
00:11:26,403 --> 00:11:28,370
above, or other than man, who
268
00:11:28,405 --> 00:11:29,538
has constructed these walls.
269
00:11:29,572 --> 00:11:31,273
And when you look at the fact
270
00:11:31,308 --> 00:11:33,209
that tons and tons and tons of
271
00:11:33,243 --> 00:11:35,211
stones have been used in a way
272
00:11:35,245 --> 00:11:36,779
that really defies,
273
00:11:36,813 --> 00:11:38,547
almost, gravity...
274
00:11:38,582 --> 00:11:40,382
And I think that's why we have
275
00:11:40,417 --> 00:11:42,151
to say that Mycenae is
276
00:11:42,185 --> 00:11:43,485
definitely beyond human
277
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,220
capability of that specific
278
00:11:45,255 --> 00:11:46,688
time and that specific period
279
00:11:46,722 --> 00:11:49,358
in Greek history.
280
00:11:51,328 --> 00:11:53,162
In Mycenae, Greece
281
00:11:53,196 --> 00:11:54,563
there is what's called the
282
00:11:54,598 --> 00:11:57,333
"treasury of atreus."
283
00:11:57,367 --> 00:12:00,169
And right in there, there is
284
00:12:00,203 --> 00:12:01,737
one stone that has been hoisted
285
00:12:01,772 --> 00:12:03,572
over the entrance of that
286
00:12:03,607 --> 00:12:06,208
treasury, and it weighs an
287
00:12:06,242 --> 00:12:10,379
estimated 250 tons.
288
00:12:10,413 --> 00:12:12,748
It is perfect.
289
00:12:12,782 --> 00:12:15,217
Just unbelievable.
290
00:12:15,218 --> 00:12:17,319
Now, we would have difficulties
291
00:12:17,353 --> 00:12:20,255
today moving that stuff around.
292
00:12:20,290 --> 00:12:21,690
Now, I'm not saying that we
293
00:12:21,724 --> 00:12:23,925
today cannot do it.
294
00:12:23,926 --> 00:12:25,728
I'm not saying that, but if
295
00:12:25,762 --> 00:12:29,298
we're struggling with our
296
00:12:29,332 --> 00:12:31,567
modern technology, is it really
297
00:12:31,601 --> 00:12:33,902
logical to suggest that our
298
00:12:33,937 --> 00:12:36,738
ancestors did this with pivots,
299
00:12:36,773 --> 00:12:39,475
and with little ropes, and with
300
00:12:39,509 --> 00:12:42,178
wooden rollers?
301
00:12:42,179 --> 00:12:43,646
You look at all
302
00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:45,214
these ancient structures all
303
00:12:45,248 --> 00:12:47,149
over the world: Mayan
304
00:12:47,183 --> 00:12:49,451
structures, pyramids,
305
00:12:49,485 --> 00:12:50,318
Greek temples.
306
00:12:50,353 --> 00:12:51,587
You see all of these... these
307
00:12:51,621 --> 00:12:53,155
blocks that are not only
308
00:12:53,189 --> 00:12:54,156
enormous, it would be
309
00:12:54,190 --> 00:12:55,290
impossible to move them around
310
00:12:55,325 --> 00:12:57,326
with anything but even our best
311
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,163
technology today.
312
00:13:00,197 --> 00:13:01,297
One of the great
313
00:13:01,331 --> 00:13:02,498
enigmas of the megalithic
314
00:13:02,532 --> 00:13:03,766
buildings around the world is
315
00:13:03,801 --> 00:13:05,234
that in many cases they're
316
00:13:05,269 --> 00:13:07,770
built with such large and heavy
317
00:13:07,804 --> 00:13:10,539
granite or basalt stones.
318
00:13:10,540 --> 00:13:13,675
Even giant cranes would barely
319
00:13:13,710 --> 00:13:16,278
be useful to lift some of these
320
00:13:16,313 --> 00:13:19,181
really large stones, such as
321
00:13:19,215 --> 00:13:20,583
the stones at Baalbek in
322
00:13:20,617 --> 00:13:22,684
Lebanon, where you have just
323
00:13:22,719 --> 00:13:26,188
mind-bogglingly huge stones
324
00:13:26,222 --> 00:13:28,523
that weigh, in some cases, over
325
00:13:28,558 --> 00:13:31,426
a thousand tons.
326
00:13:31,461 --> 00:13:33,695
But just how could
327
00:13:33,729 --> 00:13:36,197
ancient man have built such
328
00:13:36,232 --> 00:13:37,832
colossal structures?
329
00:13:37,867 --> 00:13:40,602
Were the stones really moved by
330
00:13:40,636 --> 00:13:44,338
beings with superhuman strength?
331
00:13:44,372 --> 00:13:46,674
Or might the builders have had
332
00:13:46,708 --> 00:13:48,842
access to an advanced... perhaps
333
00:13:48,876 --> 00:13:51,544
alien... technology?
334
00:13:51,579 --> 00:13:54,180
For ancient astronaut
335
00:13:54,214 --> 00:13:56,181
theorists, the key might be
336
00:13:56,215 --> 00:13:58,183
found not by studying the
337
00:13:58,217 --> 00:13:59,717
laws of physics, but by
338
00:13:59,752 --> 00:14:01,719
exploring the interdisciplinary
339
00:14:01,753 --> 00:14:03,721
science of acoustics and the
340
00:14:03,755 --> 00:14:07,358
principle of acoustic levitation.
341
00:14:07,392 --> 00:14:10,861
Acoustic levitation is another way that
342
00:14:10,896 --> 00:14:12,363
alien civilizations may have
343
00:14:12,397 --> 00:14:14,532
influenced our history.
344
00:14:14,533 --> 00:14:16,534
And there is some evidence for
345
00:14:16,568 --> 00:14:18,336
that, especially when you look
346
00:14:18,370 --> 00:14:19,871
at some of the research that's
347
00:14:19,905 --> 00:14:21,639
been done in acoustic
348
00:14:21,673 --> 00:14:24,742
levitation here in laboratories.
349
00:14:32,352 --> 00:14:36,423
This system is a acoustic
positioning device,
350
00:14:36,457 --> 00:14:38,425
and what happens inside, we create
351
00:14:38,459 --> 00:14:41,629
an acoustic force field.
352
00:14:41,630 --> 00:14:42,763
The force field is pushing
353
00:14:42,797 --> 00:14:44,531
everything toward the center.
354
00:14:44,565 --> 00:14:46,333
And the force field can rotate,
355
00:14:46,367 --> 00:14:48,168
the force field can oscillate.
356
00:14:48,202 --> 00:14:51,171
This ball is fairly light material.
357
00:14:51,205 --> 00:14:53,573
It's about ten grams, no more.
358
00:14:53,607 --> 00:14:55,341
It's meant to be light.
359
00:14:55,376 --> 00:14:56,676
But if you want to move the
360
00:14:56,710 --> 00:14:58,410
very heavy object, a large
361
00:14:58,445 --> 00:14:59,611
object, what you really have to
362
00:14:59,646 --> 00:15:01,513
develop in conjunction with the
363
00:15:01,547 --> 00:15:04,282
acoustic positioning device,
364
00:15:04,317 --> 00:15:05,684
is antigravity device.
365
00:15:05,719 --> 00:15:07,786
Because acoustic position
366
00:15:07,821 --> 00:15:09,755
device, really meant to fine
367
00:15:09,790 --> 00:15:12,725
tuning of the force field,
368
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,761
but the system must be force-free,
369
00:15:14,796 --> 00:15:18,632
otherwise it won't be budged.
370
00:15:18,667 --> 00:15:20,234
But is it possible
371
00:15:20,269 --> 00:15:22,470
that early builders had access
372
00:15:22,505 --> 00:15:23,771
to the kind of acoustic
373
00:15:23,806 --> 00:15:26,874
technology that would allow for
374
00:15:26,909 --> 00:15:28,476
the transportation and careful
375
00:15:28,510 --> 00:15:31,211
placement of mega-ton boulders
376
00:15:31,246 --> 00:15:34,215
and stone blocks?
377
00:15:34,249 --> 00:15:35,782
Ancient astronaut theorists
378
00:15:35,817 --> 00:15:38,152
believe clues can be found in
379
00:15:38,187 --> 00:15:39,487
the myths and tales of magic
380
00:15:39,521 --> 00:15:42,357
handed down throughout time.
381
00:15:42,358 --> 00:15:44,726
There are many ancient
legends which suggest
382
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,162
that some of the monuments were
383
00:15:47,196 --> 00:15:50,699
built with the help of acoustic levitation.
384
00:15:50,700 --> 00:15:53,602
What the local legend of
385
00:15:53,636 --> 00:15:57,340
stonehenge talks about is that
386
00:15:57,374 --> 00:15:58,607
those big stones were
387
00:15:58,642 --> 00:16:01,744
transported by way of
388
00:16:01,778 --> 00:16:04,280
levitation by none other than
389
00:16:04,314 --> 00:16:06,648
Merlin the wizard.
390
00:16:06,683 --> 00:16:08,616
And he had a magical rod with
391
00:16:08,651 --> 00:16:11,786
which he pointed at the stones,
392
00:16:11,820 --> 00:16:14,188
and they would levitate and
393
00:16:14,222 --> 00:16:16,190
position into place.
394
00:16:16,224 --> 00:16:18,191
It's a very fascinating
395
00:16:18,226 --> 00:16:19,192
story, because we know
396
00:16:19,227 --> 00:16:20,660
that some of these stones
397
00:16:20,695 --> 00:16:22,195
have been transported there
398
00:16:22,229 --> 00:16:25,197
from as far away as 200 Miles.
399
00:16:25,232 --> 00:16:29,535
And ancient legends are a
400
00:16:29,570 --> 00:16:34,207
bridge to finding what truly
401
00:16:34,241 --> 00:16:37,176
happened in our past.
402
00:16:37,211 --> 00:16:40,645
There are lots of stories
of stones being levitated,
403
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,815
all using the power of sound.
404
00:16:42,816 --> 00:16:44,150
It's interesting as
405
00:16:44,184 --> 00:16:46,219
you read these stories of magic,
406
00:16:46,253 --> 00:16:47,721
that you see that they have to
407
00:16:47,755 --> 00:16:49,156
use the chanting.
408
00:16:49,190 --> 00:16:50,390
They have to chant certain
409
00:16:50,425 --> 00:16:52,759
spells, certain words.
410
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,561
Certain vibrational frequencies
411
00:16:54,595 --> 00:16:56,463
seem to create certain effects
412
00:16:56,497 --> 00:16:58,231
in the physical realm.
413
00:16:58,266 --> 00:17:00,167
To me, it makes complete sense
414
00:17:00,201 --> 00:17:01,835
that the use of a technology,
415
00:17:01,869 --> 00:17:03,536
say, a magic wand of some kind,
416
00:17:03,571 --> 00:17:06,640
would be some sort of amplifier.
417
00:17:08,376 --> 00:17:12,412
I mean, there's no way that human beings,
418
00:17:12,447 --> 00:17:13,680
even a hundred thousand of them,
419
00:17:13,715 --> 00:17:15,682
could pull these things.
420
00:17:15,717 --> 00:17:17,685
They've done experiments by
421
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,521
putting hands around blocks.
422
00:17:20,522 --> 00:17:23,191
You can't get enough hands in there.
423
00:17:23,225 --> 00:17:26,627
You can't get 200,000
hands to lift a block.
424
00:17:26,628 --> 00:17:28,429
And once you roll it with all
425
00:17:28,463 --> 00:17:32,200
these people, how do you move it?
426
00:17:32,234 --> 00:17:33,535
I think the technology had to
427
00:17:33,569 --> 00:17:35,603
do with some kind of sound,
428
00:17:35,637 --> 00:17:37,571
and they were able to just come up
429
00:17:37,606 --> 00:17:40,207
with some antigravity,
430
00:17:40,241 --> 00:17:42,442
and just move 'em into place.
431
00:17:42,477 --> 00:17:43,377
But did ancient aliens,
432
00:17:43,411 --> 00:17:48,116
using antigravity and
sonic levitation technology,
433
00:17:48,150 --> 00:17:50,218
help early humans build the
434
00:17:50,253 --> 00:17:52,554
ancient wonders of the world?
435
00:17:52,589 --> 00:17:54,456
Well, everything's possible.
436
00:17:54,491 --> 00:17:56,692
We have no way to rule in or
437
00:17:56,726 --> 00:17:59,295
rule out aliens, because human
438
00:17:59,329 --> 00:18:01,197
technology is very primitive
439
00:18:01,231 --> 00:18:02,265
at this stage.
440
00:18:02,299 --> 00:18:04,300
And you look at earth...
441
00:18:04,334 --> 00:18:05,635
has only survived four billion years,
442
00:18:05,669 --> 00:18:08,304
but there are planets
443
00:18:08,338 --> 00:18:10,539
billions and billions
of years ahead of us.
444
00:18:10,573 --> 00:18:12,140
Their technology and their
445
00:18:12,175 --> 00:18:14,142
knowledge, it can be so far
446
00:18:14,177 --> 00:18:18,379
ahead of us, we can't even imagine.
447
00:18:18,414 --> 00:18:19,647
But if early
448
00:18:19,681 --> 00:18:21,649
civilizations did possess the
449
00:18:21,683 --> 00:18:23,718
ability to levitate large solid
450
00:18:23,752 --> 00:18:26,287
objects, might they have also
451
00:18:26,321 --> 00:18:29,390
possessed another even greater ability?
452
00:18:29,425 --> 00:18:31,159
Might they have also mastered
453
00:18:31,193 --> 00:18:33,160
the power of flight?
454
00:18:36,585 --> 00:18:39,721
Flying saucers.
455
00:18:39,755 --> 00:18:41,723
UFOs.
456
00:18:44,326 --> 00:18:46,260
Mainstream historians claim
457
00:18:46,328 --> 00:18:47,662
sightings of these mysterious
458
00:18:47,696 --> 00:18:53,268
craft are mostly a 20th-century phenomenon.
459
00:18:53,335 --> 00:18:56,604
But according to ancient
astronaut theorists,
460
00:18:56,672 --> 00:18:58,673
unidentified flying objects
461
00:18:58,707 --> 00:19:00,341
have been appearing in earth's
462
00:19:00,375 --> 00:19:02,710
skies since the dawn of man.
463
00:19:04,746 --> 00:19:08,282
Depictions of flying
saucers and what seems
464
00:19:08,350 --> 00:19:09,383
to be some kind of ancient
465
00:19:09,418 --> 00:19:11,753
spacecraft go back to some of
466
00:19:11,787 --> 00:19:13,688
the earliest cave paintings
467
00:19:13,723 --> 00:19:15,691
that we know of.
468
00:19:15,692 --> 00:19:17,292
Scientists date these cave
469
00:19:17,360 --> 00:19:20,930
paintings back to 20, 30,000 B.C.
470
00:19:20,964 --> 00:19:22,632
And these cave paintings are in
471
00:19:22,699 --> 00:19:26,636
Russia, China, Africa, South
472
00:19:26,704 --> 00:19:28,872
America and other areas.
473
00:19:28,906 --> 00:19:31,441
And they appear to be some kind
474
00:19:31,475 --> 00:19:33,443
of a spacecraft.
475
00:19:36,614 --> 00:19:40,584
You can go back to ancient
sumerian inscriptions
476
00:19:40,618 --> 00:19:42,553
from Babylon, and you actually
477
00:19:42,587 --> 00:19:44,588
see these discs with wings
478
00:19:44,622 --> 00:19:48,325
around them and depictions of
479
00:19:48,392 --> 00:19:51,594
people flying in them.
480
00:19:51,629 --> 00:19:53,330
And you see the same thing in
481
00:19:53,397 --> 00:19:55,331
Egypt where you see round discs
482
00:19:55,399 --> 00:19:58,668
that have wings coming off them.
483
00:19:58,735 --> 00:20:00,903
What you're dealing with is,
484
00:20:00,938 --> 00:20:02,571
most likely, actually a flying
485
00:20:02,606 --> 00:20:05,608
saucer that's being seen up in space.
486
00:20:09,413 --> 00:20:12,314
Guatemala, Central America.
487
00:20:12,349 --> 00:20:13,782
According to most mainstream
488
00:20:13,816 --> 00:20:16,284
scholars and archaeologists,
489
00:20:16,319 --> 00:20:17,953
the earliest human settlements
490
00:20:17,987 --> 00:20:22,958
in this region date back over 14,000 years.
491
00:20:22,992 --> 00:20:24,592
Here can be found numerous
492
00:20:24,627 --> 00:20:26,961
ancient artifacts, and among
493
00:20:26,996 --> 00:20:30,364
them is this one: The figure of
494
00:20:30,432 --> 00:20:32,933
a man lying inside what appears
495
00:20:32,967 --> 00:20:35,636
to be the shell of a turtle.
496
00:20:35,670 --> 00:20:39,440
And when I asked the
local archaeologist there,
497
00:20:39,474 --> 00:20:42,343
"what is this?"
They said,
498
00:20:42,378 --> 00:20:43,845
without the flinching of an eye,
499
00:20:43,879 --> 00:20:45,714
"well, this is, according to"
500
00:20:45,782 --> 00:20:50,453
legend, the giant flying turtles
501
00:20:50,487 --> 00:20:54,458
"which flew around in Guatemala."
502
00:20:54,459 --> 00:20:56,560
The entire body is
503
00:20:56,627 --> 00:20:59,328
aerodynamically fashioned.
504
00:20:59,363 --> 00:21:01,797
The extremities are pressed in
505
00:21:01,832 --> 00:21:04,333
an aerodynamic fashion against
506
00:21:04,367 --> 00:21:07,402
the body of this turtle.
507
00:21:07,470 --> 00:21:10,971
And if you look closely, it's
508
00:21:11,006 --> 00:21:12,473
as if there's some modern day
509
00:21:12,507 --> 00:21:16,476
fighter pilot glasses or goggles.
510
00:21:18,847 --> 00:21:20,848
This right here is from the
511
00:21:20,882 --> 00:21:22,482
same culture, from the same
512
00:21:22,517 --> 00:21:25,385
region where they created the
513
00:21:25,420 --> 00:21:26,687
turtle in Clay.
514
00:21:26,721 --> 00:21:28,655
So they knew exactly what a
515
00:21:28,690 --> 00:21:29,823
turtle looked like.
516
00:21:29,858 --> 00:21:32,660
It looks like a snapping turtle.
517
00:21:32,694 --> 00:21:35,830
And what we have here... that is
518
00:21:35,865 --> 00:21:38,333
everything but a turtle.
519
00:21:38,367 --> 00:21:41,669
It's something else.
520
00:21:41,704 --> 00:21:43,772
In their frame of reference,
521
00:21:43,839 --> 00:21:45,507
they were able to use the
522
00:21:45,541 --> 00:21:48,876
turtle as the best example of
523
00:21:48,911 --> 00:21:51,012
what they might have seen that
524
00:21:51,046 --> 00:21:54,381
the gods used to fly around in.
525
00:21:57,886 --> 00:21:58,853
Halfway around the world,
526
00:21:58,887 --> 00:22:04,093
in 329 B.C., the greek ruler
Alexander the great
527
00:22:04,127 --> 00:22:07,096
planned the invasion of India.
528
00:22:07,130 --> 00:22:09,098
But according to ancient texts,
529
00:22:09,133 --> 00:22:10,867
his army was supposedly
530
00:22:10,901 --> 00:22:14,871
thwarted by a strange
attack from the skies.
531
00:22:14,906 --> 00:22:18,208
As Alexander's army
was getting ready to cross
532
00:22:18,242 --> 00:22:20,110
the indus and invade India,
533
00:22:20,144 --> 00:22:22,880
suddenly in the sky appeared
534
00:22:22,914 --> 00:22:25,950
these flying discs.
535
00:22:25,984 --> 00:22:29,219
And they began dive-bombing at
536
00:22:29,254 --> 00:22:32,222
the war elephants that were
537
00:22:32,256 --> 00:22:34,224
part of Alexander's army.
538
00:22:34,258 --> 00:22:37,126
And what these flying discs did
539
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,161
was cause stampedes within
540
00:22:40,229 --> 00:22:43,164
Alexander's own war elephants,
541
00:22:43,231 --> 00:22:44,832
who then ran amok throughout
542
00:22:44,900 --> 00:22:48,135
his army, tearing up
the camps and everything.
543
00:22:48,169 --> 00:22:50,804
And after that, Alexander's
544
00:22:50,838 --> 00:22:52,338
generals met with him, and they
545
00:22:52,406 --> 00:22:56,810
said, "no, we're not going into India."
546
00:22:56,844 --> 00:22:58,110
This is it.
547
00:22:58,145 --> 00:22:59,245
"We're gonna turn back."
548
00:22:59,279 --> 00:23:03,081
And that was the end of that war campaign.
549
00:23:03,116 --> 00:23:06,450
But whether in ancient times or much more recently,
550
00:23:06,485 --> 00:23:09,854
so-called flying saucers
are often described as
551
00:23:09,922 --> 00:23:11,823
being unaffected by gravity or
552
00:23:11,857 --> 00:23:13,824
the basic laws of physics.
553
00:23:13,825 --> 00:23:17,026
You know, I know that people who have,
554
00:23:17,094 --> 00:23:18,428
who have seen, uh, extraterrestrial
555
00:23:18,462 --> 00:23:20,262
vehicles in modern times have said,
556
00:23:20,296 --> 00:23:23,331
"how in the world could it be doing that?"
557
00:23:23,332 --> 00:23:25,166
For example, it's moving
558
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,168
through the sky, and it's going
559
00:23:27,202 --> 00:23:29,269
20,000 Miles per hour, and makes
560
00:23:29,304 --> 00:23:30,304
a right-hand turn without
561
00:23:30,338 --> 00:23:32,305
decelerating... that isn't
562
00:23:32,340 --> 00:23:37,811
possible using normal aerodynamics.
563
00:23:37,845 --> 00:23:41,848
When jets have been
scrambled after flying
564
00:23:41,881 --> 00:23:43,281
saucers, the saucers are
565
00:23:43,316 --> 00:23:45,217
described as suddenly turning
566
00:23:45,285 --> 00:23:47,786
at right angles at super speeds
567
00:23:47,820 --> 00:23:49,988
and just zipping off in what
568
00:23:50,022 --> 00:23:54,292
seems like impossible aerobatic maneuvers.
569
00:23:54,326 --> 00:23:56,294
And this can be explained as
570
00:23:56,328 --> 00:23:58,462
the kind of technology they're
571
00:23:58,497 --> 00:24:03,166
using which is a gravity control.
572
00:24:03,201 --> 00:24:05,802
It's artificial gravity.
573
00:24:05,837 --> 00:24:07,971
So when you're inside of a
574
00:24:08,005 --> 00:24:09,305
gravitational field that you're
575
00:24:09,340 --> 00:24:11,808
creating yourself around your
576
00:24:11,842 --> 00:24:15,144
craft, the gravity of the earth
577
00:24:15,178 --> 00:24:17,746
doesn't have a force on you.
578
00:24:19,816 --> 00:24:22,750
But although aircraft
propulsion by means of
579
00:24:22,818 --> 00:24:24,886
gravity manipulation is beyond
580
00:24:24,921 --> 00:24:26,054
the limits of current
581
00:24:26,088 --> 00:24:28,424
technology, many scientists
582
00:24:28,491 --> 00:24:32,761
claim it is theoretically possible.
583
00:24:35,498 --> 00:24:37,232
In Davis, California,
584
00:24:37,266 --> 00:24:39,234
Canadian-born inventor
585
00:24:39,268 --> 00:24:41,168
Dr. Paul Moller tests the
586
00:24:41,203 --> 00:24:43,337
boundaries of real-life science
587
00:24:43,371 --> 00:24:45,005
with a recreational flying
588
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,841
vehicle called the Neuera.
589
00:24:51,512 --> 00:24:56,216
The Neuera is a very
simple device to fly.
590
00:24:58,118 --> 00:25:01,354
It has eight lifting ducted
591
00:25:01,389 --> 00:25:04,023
fans, as we call them, each one
592
00:25:04,058 --> 00:25:07,393
driven by its own engine.
593
00:25:07,394 --> 00:25:09,428
One of the big advantages of
594
00:25:09,462 --> 00:25:11,296
this kind of round shape is
595
00:25:11,364 --> 00:25:13,131
that you end up with the
596
00:25:13,199 --> 00:25:14,966
strength in the skin of the
597
00:25:15,034 --> 00:25:16,400
vehicle itself, much like the
598
00:25:16,435 --> 00:25:17,968
shell of a beetle.
599
00:25:18,036 --> 00:25:20,203
And that gets you a very,
very strong design.
600
00:25:20,238 --> 00:25:21,772
This... air frames you see over
601
00:25:21,806 --> 00:25:23,039
here next to this vehicle which
602
00:25:23,073 --> 00:25:24,741
are similar to this, weigh only
603
00:25:24,775 --> 00:25:27,043
75 pounds apiece, which is incredible.
604
00:25:27,077 --> 00:25:28,210
You get a complete airframe
605
00:25:28,244 --> 00:25:30,212
that's capable of lifting 1,500
606
00:25:30,246 --> 00:25:34,216
pounds with a 75-pound shell.
607
00:25:34,217 --> 00:25:37,219
But could the inherent
design strength of a
608
00:25:37,254 --> 00:25:39,888
disc-shaped object be the key
609
00:25:39,923 --> 00:25:43,092
to overcoming the forces of gravity?
610
00:25:43,126 --> 00:25:44,894
And does the prevalence of
611
00:25:44,929 --> 00:25:47,064
flying saucer sightings suggest
612
00:25:47,098 --> 00:25:48,766
a connection between
613
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,934
antigravity technology and
614
00:25:50,969 --> 00:25:54,272
extraterrestrial visitations?
615
00:25:54,306 --> 00:25:56,841
Gravity is one of the
most unknown forces in
616
00:25:56,908 --> 00:25:58,975
physics today, and when we do
617
00:25:59,010 --> 00:26:00,810
understand it, we'll be able to
618
00:26:00,845 --> 00:26:02,245
find out a way to shield
619
00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:04,113
ourselves from it or to
620
00:26:04,147 --> 00:26:05,948
provide a device, a method,
621
00:26:05,982 --> 00:26:08,450
electromagnetically, but with
622
00:26:08,484 --> 00:26:10,085
some much greater knowledge
623
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,286
than we have today, where we
624
00:26:11,321 --> 00:26:12,354
eliminate it within the
625
00:26:12,422 --> 00:26:15,290
vehicles' operations.
626
00:26:15,324 --> 00:26:17,926
Although antigravity devices in the
627
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,928
form of flying saucers may help
628
00:26:19,962 --> 00:26:22,264
to explain how extraterrestrials might have
629
00:26:22,298 --> 00:26:23,931
been able to travel at
630
00:26:23,966 --> 00:26:26,935
ultrahigh speeds, there is in
631
00:26:26,969 --> 00:26:28,303
fact another means of
632
00:26:28,337 --> 00:26:30,338
interplanetary transportation.
633
00:26:30,373 --> 00:26:32,174
And it is one that humans,
634
00:26:32,208 --> 00:26:34,276
and perhaps aliens, have been able
635
00:26:34,310 --> 00:26:37,045
to use for centuries: The brute
636
00:26:37,113 --> 00:26:39,782
force of rockets.
637
00:26:44,633 --> 00:26:47,502
The Kennedy space center.
638
00:26:47,536 --> 00:26:50,105
Six earth astronauts sit atop
639
00:26:50,139 --> 00:26:54,409
NASA's endeavor space
shuttle headed for orbit.
640
00:26:54,443 --> 00:26:56,678
After countdown, three main
641
00:26:56,712 --> 00:26:58,479
engines, together with two
642
00:26:58,513 --> 00:27:00,648
solid rocket boosters, provide
643
00:27:00,682 --> 00:27:02,416
the thrust to lift the orbiter
644
00:27:02,450 --> 00:27:05,751
off the ground for its ascent.
645
00:27:05,785 --> 00:27:09,520
And liftoff of shuttle Endeavor.
646
00:27:13,558 --> 00:27:16,125
I urge everyone to be part one day of a
647
00:27:16,193 --> 00:27:18,127
rocket launch, because it is a
648
00:27:18,162 --> 00:27:20,163
life-altering moment.
649
00:27:20,164 --> 00:27:21,631
When you stand there, a few
650
00:27:21,665 --> 00:27:24,667
miles away, you can still feel
651
00:27:24,702 --> 00:27:30,140
the power as that rocket
takes off into space.
652
00:27:30,175 --> 00:27:32,142
A grumbling in your stomach,
653
00:27:32,177 --> 00:27:34,711
the vibrations,
and you can hear the noise.
654
00:27:34,746 --> 00:27:37,214
And it's a truly magnificent
655
00:27:37,248 --> 00:27:40,683
sight and awe-inspiring.
656
00:27:40,751 --> 00:27:45,553
But are manned space flights
really a recent phenomenon?
657
00:27:45,588 --> 00:27:48,222
Or could our ancient ancestors
658
00:27:48,256 --> 00:27:52,525
have witnessed similar events?
659
00:27:52,559 --> 00:27:55,560
There is no doubt
that if we thoroughly
660
00:27:55,595 --> 00:27:57,528
investigate this planet, they
661
00:27:57,563 --> 00:28:00,165
will find that this planet may
662
00:28:00,199 --> 00:28:01,500
have already been to the moon
663
00:28:01,534 --> 00:28:03,735
way before we went to the moon
664
00:28:03,769 --> 00:28:07,505
with a man in 1969.
665
00:28:07,540 --> 00:28:11,243
The interesting thing
is that we have the exact
666
00:28:11,277 --> 00:28:13,679
same descriptions in ancient
667
00:28:13,713 --> 00:28:15,414
texts and also in oral
668
00:28:15,448 --> 00:28:18,250
traditions, where whenever
669
00:28:18,285 --> 00:28:20,585
those quote, unquote "gods"
670
00:28:20,620 --> 00:28:22,420
appeared, there was a lot of
671
00:28:22,455 --> 00:28:25,390
smoke, a lot of fire, a lot of
672
00:28:25,424 --> 00:28:29,694
noise, and the trembling of the ground.
673
00:28:29,728 --> 00:28:33,497
When rockets are taking off,
it's best to stand
674
00:28:33,531 --> 00:28:36,432
back and get out of the way.
675
00:28:36,467 --> 00:28:37,700
And that's a lot of what the
676
00:28:37,735 --> 00:28:39,501
ancient legends are about, too.
677
00:28:39,536 --> 00:28:41,604
When the gods came and went,
678
00:28:41,638 --> 00:28:43,372
it may well have been just these
679
00:28:43,406 --> 00:28:45,441
rockets or other aerospace
680
00:28:45,475 --> 00:28:47,276
vehicles landing and taking off
681
00:28:47,310 --> 00:28:51,379
and making a lot of smoke and noise.
682
00:28:51,413 --> 00:28:58,518
But could early man really have
had knowledge of rocket technology?
683
00:28:58,552 --> 00:29:00,453
To make their case, ancient
684
00:29:00,487 --> 00:29:02,455
astronaut theorists point to
685
00:29:02,489 --> 00:29:03,689
numerous and consistent
686
00:29:03,724 --> 00:29:05,591
descriptions of rockets found
687
00:29:05,625 --> 00:29:08,293
throughout many cultures
of the ancient world.
688
00:29:08,328 --> 00:29:09,294
When you're dealing
689
00:29:09,329 --> 00:29:10,462
with this subject and you look
690
00:29:10,496 --> 00:29:12,130
at the ancient literature, you
691
00:29:12,164 --> 00:29:13,631
have to look at it through the
692
00:29:13,666 --> 00:29:15,599
lens of how is it being
693
00:29:15,634 --> 00:29:18,769
experienced by a civilization
694
00:29:18,803 --> 00:29:20,237
with no foundation for
695
00:29:20,271 --> 00:29:22,673
understanding the science,
the technology.
696
00:29:22,674 --> 00:29:23,807
And so I think, in ancient times,
697
00:29:23,841 --> 00:29:26,309
there were people who had encounters.
698
00:29:26,343 --> 00:29:27,777
However, I think the way they
699
00:29:27,811 --> 00:29:29,145
might have been reported
700
00:29:29,179 --> 00:29:31,479
would've been in metaphors,
701
00:29:31,514 --> 00:29:35,816
in ways that would have made sense to them.
702
00:29:35,851 --> 00:29:42,721
In China, you have these stories
of dragons flying through the air.
703
00:29:42,756 --> 00:29:44,589
They make a lot of noise and
704
00:29:44,624 --> 00:29:46,491
smoke comes out of them and
705
00:29:46,525 --> 00:29:49,293
fire, just like a rocket.
706
00:29:51,362 --> 00:29:56,497
The first emperor of China
descended in a fiery dragon,
707
00:29:56,532 --> 00:29:59,301
with smoke and fire,
708
00:29:59,335 --> 00:30:01,502
and whenever that dragon appeared,
709
00:30:01,537 --> 00:30:03,504
the earth was quaking and
710
00:30:03,539 --> 00:30:06,240
everyone was afraid and-and
711
00:30:06,275 --> 00:30:08,475
threw themselves to the ground.
712
00:30:08,510 --> 00:30:10,344
Now, of course it wasn't a
713
00:30:10,378 --> 00:30:12,812
dragon in a biological nature,
714
00:30:12,846 --> 00:30:14,513
a living being.
715
00:30:14,548 --> 00:30:18,685
But it was a misinterpreted machine.
716
00:30:21,189 --> 00:30:23,422
If you look at the Greek gods,
717
00:30:23,457 --> 00:30:27,394
they were all described as
flying in on chariots of fire.
718
00:30:27,395 --> 00:30:29,197
Well, a chariot of fire, to me,
719
00:30:29,231 --> 00:30:30,702
seems very clearly like it's
720
00:30:30,737 --> 00:30:32,504
some sort of rocket, probably
721
00:30:32,538 --> 00:30:35,173
burning its retros as it lands
722
00:30:35,207 --> 00:30:38,209
somewhere in ancient Greece.
723
00:30:38,210 --> 00:30:40,544
In the old testament,
724
00:30:40,578 --> 00:30:46,683
we can read about a glowing furnace
that descended from the sky.
725
00:30:46,718 --> 00:30:47,784
And sometimes this glowing
726
00:30:47,819 --> 00:30:49,719
furnace is described as a
727
00:30:49,754 --> 00:30:55,324
chariot of fire or as the glory of the lord.
728
00:30:55,359 --> 00:30:57,193
So there are all these different
729
00:30:57,227 --> 00:30:58,728
descriptions, which in the
730
00:30:58,762 --> 00:31:01,197
ancient astronaut opinion
731
00:31:01,231 --> 00:31:04,134
describe ancient rocketry.
732
00:31:06,170 --> 00:31:08,138
From 5000 to 2000 B.C.,
733
00:31:08,173 --> 00:31:14,412
Southern Mesopotamia was
home to the sumerians,
734
00:31:14,446 --> 00:31:15,646
a highly advanced civilization
735
00:31:15,681 --> 00:31:19,250
considered to be among
the first astronomers.
736
00:31:19,284 --> 00:31:21,318
Regarded as one of the oldest
737
00:31:21,353 --> 00:31:23,487
written stories in history,
738
00:31:23,521 --> 00:31:26,156
the epic of gilgamesh told of a
739
00:31:26,191 --> 00:31:28,391
man's journey to the heavens to
740
00:31:28,426 --> 00:31:30,392
meet the God Anu.
741
00:31:30,427 --> 00:31:33,495
The Gilgamesh epic, which goes back
742
00:31:33,530 --> 00:31:36,164
to the sumerian, that's a piece
743
00:31:36,199 --> 00:31:41,304
where the hero, Gilgamesh,
flies over the earth.
744
00:31:41,305 --> 00:31:42,705
And he describes how the earth
745
00:31:42,739 --> 00:31:44,541
looks from above. Fascinating.
746
00:31:44,575 --> 00:31:47,277
An old story of the first flight.
747
00:31:47,312 --> 00:31:50,279
The most ancient civilization
that we have on record,
748
00:31:50,314 --> 00:31:50,748
the sumerian culture,
749
00:31:50,783 --> 00:31:54,519
has left us evidence
of what's called a Shem.
750
00:31:54,553 --> 00:31:56,254
And this object looks very
751
00:31:56,288 --> 00:31:58,089
similar to a modern-day space
752
00:31:58,123 --> 00:32:02,526
capsule that we place on top of a rocket.
753
00:32:02,561 --> 00:32:04,528
And this Shem is where priests
754
00:32:04,563 --> 00:32:06,397
would go into the Shem to
755
00:32:06,431 --> 00:32:08,098
interact with the gods,
756
00:32:08,133 --> 00:32:11,434
or anytime man was ascending
or descending into heaven.
757
00:32:11,468 --> 00:32:13,402
So it's a very interesting term
758
00:32:13,437 --> 00:32:15,104
used from a culture dating back
759
00:32:15,138 --> 00:32:18,406
to 3800 B.C. And very clearly
760
00:32:18,441 --> 00:32:19,708
matches the descriptions of a
761
00:32:19,742 --> 00:32:22,444
modern-day rocket.
762
00:32:22,445 --> 00:32:25,613
Could early man have actually possessed
763
00:32:25,647 --> 00:32:27,348
a surprisingly sophisticated
764
00:32:27,383 --> 00:32:29,217
understanding of what we now
765
00:32:29,252 --> 00:32:31,753
call rocket propulsion?
766
00:32:36,292 --> 00:32:38,293
In the first century A.D.,
767
00:32:38,328 --> 00:32:40,296
nearly 2,000 years before the
768
00:32:40,330 --> 00:32:42,798
industrial revolution, a Greek
769
00:32:42,832 --> 00:32:44,533
mathematician and engineer
770
00:32:44,568 --> 00:32:46,769
named hero created a
771
00:32:46,803 --> 00:32:50,706
steam-powered engine
he called an Aeolipile.
772
00:32:50,741 --> 00:32:53,476
One of the great inventors
of the ancient world
773
00:32:53,510 --> 00:32:56,746
was the famous hero of Alexandria.
774
00:32:56,781 --> 00:32:58,482
He invented all kinds of stuff.
775
00:32:58,516 --> 00:33:00,484
He actually invented what we
776
00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:05,257
would describe as a rocket-type motor.
777
00:33:05,291 --> 00:33:06,659
And really, something like this
778
00:33:06,693 --> 00:33:10,396
is the beginnings of rocket technology.
779
00:33:10,430 --> 00:33:12,465
And we don't know where hero got
780
00:33:12,500 --> 00:33:14,334
many of his ideas, but it may
781
00:33:14,368 --> 00:33:16,570
well have come from aliens.
782
00:33:20,542 --> 00:33:23,175
John Robert Tindall,
783
00:33:23,210 --> 00:33:25,412
founder of Tindall Vision laboratories,
784
00:33:25,446 --> 00:33:26,779
demonstrates a small-scale
785
00:33:26,814 --> 00:33:29,215
replica of hero's Aeolipile.
786
00:33:29,216 --> 00:33:30,182
Now, a conventional
787
00:33:30,217 --> 00:33:31,683
steam engine that we think of
788
00:33:31,718 --> 00:33:33,685
has pistons that get its power,
789
00:33:33,719 --> 00:33:37,522
but Aeolipile uses these
790
00:33:37,556 --> 00:33:41,293
opposing jets, so it's creating thrust.
791
00:33:41,294 --> 00:33:43,128
And rather than a thrust in...
792
00:33:43,163 --> 00:33:44,130
Like, a rocket would use it in
793
00:33:44,164 --> 00:33:45,131
a linear fashion,
794
00:33:45,165 --> 00:33:47,132
this is causing a rotational effect,
795
00:33:47,167 --> 00:33:48,435
and there's your steam turbine,
796
00:33:48,469 --> 00:33:51,105
really, working off of thrust.
797
00:33:51,139 --> 00:33:52,273
Now this is operating much as
798
00:33:52,307 --> 00:33:55,376
it did in the first century A.D.
799
00:33:55,410 --> 00:33:57,311
This is generally considered to
800
00:33:57,346 --> 00:33:59,513
be the first working steam engine.
801
00:33:59,548 --> 00:34:01,215
It works more like a turbine
802
00:34:01,249 --> 00:34:02,383
than a classic steam engine
803
00:34:02,417 --> 00:34:03,651
with pistons, but it's very
804
00:34:03,685 --> 00:34:05,452
significant because it really
805
00:34:05,486 --> 00:34:08,221
is taking... whoa!...
806
00:34:08,256 --> 00:34:11,725
A compressed gas and
turning it into energy.
807
00:34:13,094 --> 00:34:15,561
That has a lot of energy, steam.
808
00:34:18,665 --> 00:34:21,401
The name for hero's steam rocket engine,
809
00:34:21,435 --> 00:34:26,072
"Aeolipile" translates to
"the ball of Aeolus."
810
00:34:26,107 --> 00:34:31,144
In Greek mythology, Aeolus
was the God of the Winds.
811
00:34:31,178 --> 00:34:33,514
Is it possible that hero drew
812
00:34:33,548 --> 00:34:35,416
inspiration for his invention
813
00:34:35,451 --> 00:34:37,552
from the stories of the gods,
814
00:34:37,586 --> 00:34:42,191
such as those found in Homer's the odyssey?
815
00:34:42,225 --> 00:34:47,097
Or might he have had help
from the gods themselves?
816
00:34:47,131 --> 00:34:49,200
Some have suggested
that it was alien
817
00:34:49,234 --> 00:34:50,602
intervention, that aliens
818
00:34:50,636 --> 00:34:54,105
taught him how to build this machine.
819
00:34:54,140 --> 00:34:56,241
However, I'm leaning more
820
00:34:56,276 --> 00:34:58,744
towards the idea that he looked
821
00:34:58,778 --> 00:35:01,547
at older texts from previous
822
00:35:01,581 --> 00:35:04,717
generations and that the source
823
00:35:04,751 --> 00:35:07,620
of the idea of how to build
824
00:35:07,654 --> 00:35:09,622
this did come from
825
00:35:09,656 --> 00:35:12,291
extraterrestrials, but from way
826
00:35:12,326 --> 00:35:14,560
before he was alive, and he
827
00:35:14,595 --> 00:35:17,730
just came across those texts.
828
00:35:17,765 --> 00:35:20,533
But do the descriptions of rockets
829
00:35:20,567 --> 00:35:22,768
and otherworldly devices found in
830
00:35:22,802 --> 00:35:25,104
ancient texts and legends
831
00:35:25,138 --> 00:35:27,106
provide evidence of
832
00:35:27,140 --> 00:35:31,644
extraterrestrial encounters
in the distant past?
833
00:35:31,678 --> 00:35:32,745
Perhaps the answer
834
00:35:32,779 --> 00:35:34,113
will be discovered in an
835
00:35:34,147 --> 00:35:37,149
unlikely place... in the hands
836
00:35:37,183 --> 00:35:39,450
of the U.S. military.
837
00:35:46,238 --> 00:35:48,071
May 2010.
Off coast of California.
838
00:35:48,106 --> 00:35:50,641
A powerful new weapon shoots
839
00:35:50,675 --> 00:35:52,809
down unmanned aerial drones
840
00:35:52,844 --> 00:35:54,211
during secret testing carried
841
00:35:54,246 --> 00:35:56,747
out by the U.S. Navy.
842
00:35:56,781 --> 00:36:00,083
Firing from a warship at a
843
00:36:00,118 --> 00:36:02,119
distance of nearly two miles,
844
00:36:02,153 --> 00:36:04,254
a ray of intense laser energy
845
00:36:04,289 --> 00:36:06,122
burns through targets traveling
846
00:36:06,157 --> 00:36:10,727
at speeds of more than
300 miles per hour.
847
00:36:10,761 --> 00:36:13,029
But is it possible that such
848
00:36:13,063 --> 00:36:15,298
so-called "death rays" could
849
00:36:15,332 --> 00:36:17,100
have been used before?
850
00:36:17,134 --> 00:36:20,169
Perhaps in ancient times?
851
00:36:20,170 --> 00:36:21,737
I'm quite convinced
852
00:36:21,771 --> 00:36:23,806
that there have been in the past
853
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,907
advanced civilizations on earth
854
00:36:25,941 --> 00:36:27,208
that did have such things as
855
00:36:27,243 --> 00:36:30,078
the so-called death ray.
856
00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:31,712
Whether it was used as a weapon,
857
00:36:31,747 --> 00:36:33,048
or whether it was just
858
00:36:33,082 --> 00:36:35,317
observed being used is a very,
859
00:36:35,351 --> 00:36:37,653
very open question.
860
00:36:37,687 --> 00:36:40,223
In 214 B.C.,
861
00:36:40,258 --> 00:36:43,660
greeks living in the sicilian city of
862
00:36:43,694 --> 00:36:46,229
Syracuse prepared for an attack
863
00:36:46,264 --> 00:36:48,999
by a fleet of Roman warships.
864
00:36:49,034 --> 00:36:50,668
Though outnumbered by a
865
00:36:50,702 --> 00:36:52,302
superior military force,
866
00:36:52,337 --> 00:36:54,671
ancient texts suggest that
867
00:36:54,705 --> 00:36:56,973
Syracuse was well-defended by a
868
00:36:57,008 --> 00:37:02,212
mysterious and powerful new weapon.
869
00:37:02,213 --> 00:37:03,113
Probably the most
870
00:37:03,147 --> 00:37:05,915
famous ancient death ray was
871
00:37:05,950 --> 00:37:07,684
the one that was built by the
872
00:37:07,718 --> 00:37:10,053
greek inventor Archimedes.
873
00:37:10,054 --> 00:37:11,688
He was able to create this
874
00:37:11,722 --> 00:37:15,992
giant mirror and parabolic disc,
875
00:37:16,027 --> 00:37:19,196
and focus the sun's rays on the
876
00:37:19,230 --> 00:37:23,935
fleet and set these ships on fire.
877
00:37:23,969 --> 00:37:25,937
So here we have what would be a
878
00:37:25,972 --> 00:37:28,640
primitive kind of death ray
879
00:37:28,675 --> 00:37:30,943
that really worked.
880
00:37:32,713 --> 00:37:38,050
But how could Archimedes have
conceived such a formidable weapon?
881
00:37:38,084 --> 00:37:42,187
One far in advance of
any known at the time?
882
00:37:42,221 --> 00:37:44,189
Researchers suggest the
883
00:37:44,223 --> 00:37:45,824
inventor may have drawn
884
00:37:45,858 --> 00:37:47,693
inspiration from Greek myths
885
00:37:47,727 --> 00:37:49,728
written nearly 600 years before
886
00:37:49,762 --> 00:37:52,296
the battle of Syracuse.
887
00:37:52,331 --> 00:37:54,832
Myths that told the stories of
888
00:37:54,867 --> 00:37:56,067
gods that brandished cosmic
889
00:37:56,102 --> 00:38:01,272
weapons of incredible
destructive force.
890
00:38:01,273 --> 00:38:03,108
Wilcock if you look in the
891
00:38:03,142 --> 00:38:05,110
Greek tradition they have a
892
00:38:05,144 --> 00:38:06,878
very clear description of Zeus'
893
00:38:06,913 --> 00:38:09,781
thunderbolt, which he was able
894
00:38:09,815 --> 00:38:11,783
to point at people or at other
895
00:38:11,817 --> 00:38:13,718
things that he wanted to
896
00:38:13,753 --> 00:38:15,887
explode, hit the button, and
897
00:38:15,921 --> 00:38:17,288
what they described as
898
00:38:17,322 --> 00:38:18,723
lightning would come out and
899
00:38:18,757 --> 00:38:21,759
create a fierce and terrible explosion.
900
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,227
When these ancient gods,
901
00:38:23,261 --> 00:38:25,362
like Zeus, were to come
902
00:38:25,397 --> 00:38:28,732
down from the sky in this
903
00:38:28,767 --> 00:38:31,102
flurry of thunder and
904
00:38:31,136 --> 00:38:32,303
lightning, and then get out of
905
00:38:32,337 --> 00:38:34,104
their spacecraft, they were
906
00:38:34,139 --> 00:38:36,873
perceived as gods.
907
00:38:36,908 --> 00:38:40,911
These ancient aliens had
908
00:38:40,945 --> 00:38:42,379
fantastic technology available
909
00:38:42,413 --> 00:38:44,781
to them, a technology that
910
00:38:44,815 --> 00:38:46,049
would've seemed like magic to
911
00:38:46,084 --> 00:38:48,952
our primitive ancestors.
912
00:38:48,986 --> 00:38:50,787
So when these people came down
913
00:38:50,822 --> 00:38:52,156
from the sky, and they had
914
00:38:52,190 --> 00:38:54,792
advanced energy weapons, they
915
00:38:54,826 --> 00:38:58,763
were like gods to our ancient ancestors.
916
00:38:58,797 --> 00:38:59,830
Tsoukalos it doesn't matter
917
00:38:59,865 --> 00:39:01,832
where you go, but the gods were
918
00:39:01,867 --> 00:39:05,436
always able to create thunder,
919
00:39:05,470 --> 00:39:11,809
create lightning in a controlled way.
920
00:39:11,810 --> 00:39:13,778
In ancient India we have the
921
00:39:13,812 --> 00:39:15,079
gods holding the dorje
922
00:39:15,114 --> 00:39:17,015
sometimes like this, and it
923
00:39:17,049 --> 00:39:19,084
looks as if some type of a
924
00:39:19,118 --> 00:39:20,452
directed energy beam comes
925
00:39:20,486 --> 00:39:23,121
directly out of the front to
926
00:39:23,155 --> 00:39:24,356
vanquish the enemy, to destroy him,
927
00:39:24,390 --> 00:39:27,359
to incinerate him.
928
00:39:29,962 --> 00:39:31,296
But if death ray...
929
00:39:31,330 --> 00:39:34,132
type weapons had been used in
930
00:39:34,166 --> 00:39:35,700
ancient times, might there be
931
00:39:35,734 --> 00:39:38,135
some sort of tangible proof?
932
00:39:38,170 --> 00:39:41,306
Perhaps there is.
933
00:39:41,340 --> 00:39:43,375
Here, scattered throughout
934
00:39:43,409 --> 00:39:45,043
the Scottish countryside, can
935
00:39:45,077 --> 00:39:47,713
be found numerous ancient ruins.
936
00:39:47,747 --> 00:39:49,715
Many appear to have been forts
937
00:39:49,749 --> 00:39:51,716
or other enclosures dating
938
00:39:51,751 --> 00:39:54,052
back thousands of years.
939
00:39:54,086 --> 00:39:56,788
Remarkably, they also appear to
940
00:39:56,822 --> 00:39:58,889
have been subjected to fire and
941
00:39:58,924 --> 00:40:01,326
heat so intense it practically
942
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,229
turned the stone structures into glass.
943
00:40:05,264 --> 00:40:07,131
It's a process more
944
00:40:07,166 --> 00:40:11,202
scientifically known as "vitrification".
945
00:40:11,236 --> 00:40:14,339
Here you have these
stone buildings in which an
946
00:40:14,373 --> 00:40:16,074
analysis of the outside comes
947
00:40:16,108 --> 00:40:18,243
to the conclusion that they
948
00:40:18,278 --> 00:40:20,980
were heated to over a thousand
949
00:40:21,014 --> 00:40:22,882
degrees celsius in temperature.
950
00:40:22,916 --> 00:40:24,750
Conventional fire could not
951
00:40:24,785 --> 00:40:25,919
have reached this heat.
952
00:40:25,953 --> 00:40:27,887
You needed a sustained burn at
953
00:40:27,922 --> 00:40:30,157
a thousand degrees celsius for
954
00:40:30,191 --> 00:40:31,224
a long period of time.
955
00:40:31,259 --> 00:40:33,826
Why is it that it's only these
956
00:40:33,861 --> 00:40:35,761
forts that have this type of
957
00:40:35,795 --> 00:40:37,396
charring where they're actually
958
00:40:37,430 --> 00:40:40,199
glazed like pottery on the outside?
959
00:40:40,233 --> 00:40:42,101
Why is it that you don't see it
960
00:40:42,135 --> 00:40:44,036
on the stones in the surrounding area?
961
00:40:44,070 --> 00:40:45,070
And even more interestingly, why
962
00:40:45,104 --> 00:40:46,771
is it that so many of 'em are
963
00:40:46,806 --> 00:40:47,872
concentrated into this one
964
00:40:47,907 --> 00:40:50,274
little area in northern Scotland?
965
00:40:50,309 --> 00:40:52,177
I believe this is very clear
966
00:40:52,211 --> 00:40:56,748
evidence of death rays being used.
967
00:40:56,783 --> 00:40:59,917
According to Celtic legend,
968
00:40:59,951 --> 00:41:02,020
there once was a god named Lugh,
969
00:41:02,054 --> 00:41:09,763
also known as "the shining one",
the sun God, and the God of war.
970
00:41:09,798 --> 00:41:13,433
Like the Greek God Zeus, Lugh
971
00:41:13,468 --> 00:41:14,935
was said to wield a mighty
972
00:41:14,969 --> 00:41:17,103
"magic spear" not unlike the
973
00:41:17,138 --> 00:41:20,940
thunderbolts of his Greek counterpart.
974
00:41:20,941 --> 00:41:22,308
We have many stories
975
00:41:22,342 --> 00:41:23,776
of divinities who were powerful
976
00:41:23,810 --> 00:41:25,310
figures who had weapons that
977
00:41:25,345 --> 00:41:28,713
seemed extraordinary for their time.
978
00:41:28,747 --> 00:41:30,148
One was the great Celtic
979
00:41:30,182 --> 00:41:31,716
divinity Lugh, who had a spear
980
00:41:31,750 --> 00:41:33,718
that could spit fire and
981
00:41:33,752 --> 00:41:34,986
lightning and do great damage.
982
00:41:35,020 --> 00:41:36,220
It was an extraordinary weapon.
983
00:41:36,255 --> 00:41:37,889
We don't have a great deal of
984
00:41:37,923 --> 00:41:39,157
detail about it, but it clearly
985
00:41:39,192 --> 00:41:40,159
could dominate any situation
986
00:41:40,193 --> 00:41:41,160
he got into.
987
00:41:41,194 --> 00:41:42,095
When battle was near,
988
00:41:42,129 --> 00:41:44,163
Lugh would draw out his spear,
989
00:41:44,198 --> 00:41:49,970
and it roared, and then
flashes of fire came out of it,
990
00:41:50,005 --> 00:41:55,375
and it tore through the ranks of the enemy.
991
00:41:55,376 --> 00:41:59,913
Never tired of killing and slaying.
992
00:42:02,050 --> 00:42:04,318
It was one amazing weapon.
993
00:42:04,352 --> 00:42:07,754
I mean, how else can we explain
994
00:42:07,789 --> 00:42:09,189
all those numerous vitrified
995
00:42:09,224 --> 00:42:12,026
forts where the surface of the
996
00:42:12,060 --> 00:42:15,763
stone is as smooth as glass?
997
00:42:15,798 --> 00:42:18,766
And these spots can only be
998
00:42:18,801 --> 00:42:21,002
found in very concentrated
999
00:42:21,037 --> 00:42:24,706
areas through northern Scotland.
1000
00:42:24,740 --> 00:42:26,141
Is it possible that
1001
00:42:26,175 --> 00:42:27,709
what the Celtic legends are
1002
00:42:27,744 --> 00:42:30,712
describing as Lugh is, in fact,
1003
00:42:30,746 --> 00:42:32,781
an alien general or other kind
1004
00:42:32,815 --> 00:42:34,850
of extraterrestrial leader in
1005
00:42:34,884 --> 00:42:37,986
possession of a devastating weapon?
1006
00:42:38,021 --> 00:42:41,723
All these descriptions of sophisticated
1007
00:42:41,758 --> 00:42:45,327
weaponry sounds almost
like science fiction.
1008
00:42:45,361 --> 00:42:47,363
But is it, really?
1009
00:42:47,397 --> 00:42:50,232
Because we have those weapons today!
1010
00:42:52,402 --> 00:42:54,736
And I think it is merely
1011
00:42:54,771 --> 00:42:58,006
a reinvention of history;
1012
00:42:58,041 --> 00:42:59,742
that all the stuff that we have
1013
00:42:59,776 --> 00:43:02,044
today has been around before,
1014
00:43:02,079 --> 00:43:03,746
and that our past is not
1015
00:43:03,780 --> 00:43:07,884
science fiction, but science fact.
1016
00:43:09,386 --> 00:43:12,287
Deadly laser beams...
1017
00:43:12,288 --> 00:43:16,057
Acoustic levitation...
1018
00:43:16,091 --> 00:43:18,325
Antigravity.
1019
00:43:18,359 --> 00:43:20,327
Could these be technologies
1020
00:43:20,361 --> 00:43:26,098
that were witnessed and even
used by ancient civilizations?
1021
00:43:26,133 --> 00:43:28,868
If so, were they conceived in
1022
00:43:28,902 --> 00:43:31,937
the minds of early man?
1023
00:43:31,972 --> 00:43:33,940
Or did they have different...
1024
00:43:33,974 --> 00:43:37,010
perhaps otherworldly... origins?
1025
00:43:37,044 --> 00:43:38,745
Might unlocking the secrets of
1026
00:43:38,779 --> 00:43:40,714
these inventions be the key to
1027
00:43:40,748 --> 00:43:44,885
discovering our ancient past?
1028
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,787
Or by rediscovering lost
1029
00:43:46,822 --> 00:43:49,223
technology, might we clear the
1030
00:43:49,258 --> 00:43:52,026
path to our own future and to
1031
00:43:52,060 --> 00:43:53,795
the limitless potential
1032
00:43:53,829 --> 00:43:55,329
of the universe beyond?
