Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,296 --> 00:00:04,502
A mysterious formation...
2
00:00:04,649 --> 00:00:06,759
carved out of the Earth...
3
00:00:07,329 --> 00:00:10,770
gone unnoticed
for thousands of years.
4
00:00:11,063 --> 00:00:12,980
It's really, really striking
5
00:00:13,067 --> 00:00:14,516
when you first see it.
6
00:00:14,612 --> 00:00:17,454
It looks so much
like a human face.
7
00:00:17,868 --> 00:00:20,259
Is it an ancient
megalithic structure
8
00:00:20,347 --> 00:00:22,602
made to be seen from the sky?
9
00:00:22,758 --> 00:00:24,915
The Badlands
Guardian looks artificial.
10
00:00:25,003 --> 00:00:27,196
It doesn't look like
a trick of nature.
11
00:00:27,890 --> 00:00:29,078
And could it be
12
00:00:29,166 --> 00:00:33,329
not only a link to mankind's
extraterrestrial ancestors...
13
00:00:33,535 --> 00:00:35,359
So you have to ask yourself,
14
00:00:35,447 --> 00:00:37,281
who were they emulating?
15
00:00:37,563 --> 00:00:39,562
But one that holds the key
16
00:00:39,774 --> 00:00:41,501
to their return?
17
00:00:42,172 --> 00:00:44,445
We learned their codes
18
00:00:44,533 --> 00:00:46,203
and their secret symbolism,
19
00:00:46,299 --> 00:00:48,744
and what we're seeing
probably holds...
20
00:00:49,038 --> 00:00:50,665
a key to our legacy.
21
00:00:53,930 --> 00:00:55,653
There is a doorway
22
00:00:55,892 --> 00:00:57,469
in the universe.
23
00:00:58,439 --> 00:01:01,531
Beyond it is
the promise of truth.
24
00:01:02,864 --> 00:01:05,390
It demands
we question everything
25
00:01:05,609 --> 00:01:07,797
we have ever been taught.
26
00:01:08,006 --> 00:01:11,320
The evidence is all around us.
27
00:01:11,584 --> 00:01:15,375
The future is
right before our eyes.
28
00:01:15,609 --> 00:01:18,148
We are not alone.
29
00:01:18,312 --> 00:01:21,381
We have never been alone.

Season 14 Episode 02
Episode Title :"The Badlands Guardian"
31
00:01:33,166 --> 00:01:35,371
Gravelbourg, Saskatchewan.
32
00:01:35,658 --> 00:01:37,236
2005.
33
00:01:38,431 --> 00:01:41,252
53-year-old grandmother
Lynn Hickox
34
00:01:41,355 --> 00:01:43,362
is scanning
GPS driving directions
35
00:01:43,450 --> 00:01:45,914
to a local museum
on satellite view
36
00:01:46,002 --> 00:01:48,135
when something catches her eye:
37
00:01:48,541 --> 00:01:52,054
a geographical feature that
bears a striking resemblance
38
00:01:52,142 --> 00:01:53,689
to a human face.
39
00:01:54,791 --> 00:01:57,467
It looks so much
like a man-made structure
40
00:01:57,555 --> 00:02:00,424
that she posts the image
on a message board.
41
00:02:01,345 --> 00:02:04,757
Almost overnight,
the image goes viral
42
00:02:04,845 --> 00:02:07,000
and becomes known far and wide
43
00:02:07,088 --> 00:02:09,556
as the "Badlands Guardian."
44
00:02:10,697 --> 00:02:13,174
It is quite striking.
It is clearly a face.
45
00:02:13,285 --> 00:02:16,767
The brow, the nose, the lips,
the chin are well formed.
46
00:02:17,236 --> 00:02:19,293
The headdress a little less so,
47
00:02:19,404 --> 00:02:21,693
but clearly could be seen
as feathers.
48
00:02:22,096 --> 00:02:25,308
The Badlands Guardian appears
to be a huge geoglyph
49
00:02:25,606 --> 00:02:27,497
near Alberta, Canada.
50
00:02:27,585 --> 00:02:30,832
And to see it from Google Earth
or from satellite imagery,
51
00:02:30,973 --> 00:02:34,776
you would think it was created
by people many, many years ago.
52
00:02:35,112 --> 00:02:39,055
"Geo" means Earth,
and glyphs are symbols,
53
00:02:39,143 --> 00:02:42,409
so "geoglyph" means
symbols on the Earth.
54
00:02:42,521 --> 00:02:45,729
They can be geometric designs,
they can be...
55
00:02:45,817 --> 00:02:47,901
animals, they can be faces.
56
00:02:47,995 --> 00:02:49,393
Some of them are carved
57
00:02:49,502 --> 00:02:51,782
into the ground,
like we find in Nazca.
58
00:02:51,942 --> 00:02:53,956
And in some places
they're built up,
59
00:02:54,158 --> 00:02:56,056
mounds built up on the Earth.
60
00:02:56,369 --> 00:02:57,911
The Badlands Guardian
61
00:02:57,999 --> 00:03:02,508
is a bust, or a head
and shoulders presentation,
62
00:03:02,596 --> 00:03:05,293
of a male indigenous person.
63
00:03:05,618 --> 00:03:07,166
It is so striking,
64
00:03:07,254 --> 00:03:10,323
because that is the indigenous
people of the area.
65
00:03:10,411 --> 00:03:13,383
It doesn't look like a Scotsman
wearing a kilt.
66
00:03:13,471 --> 00:03:15,446
It doesn't look like
an African warrior.
67
00:03:15,534 --> 00:03:20,166
It looks like an indigenous,
uh, native to the area.
68
00:03:20,721 --> 00:03:23,649
Is it possible that
the likeness of a human face
69
00:03:23,737 --> 00:03:26,150
naturally formed in the Earth?
70
00:03:26,556 --> 00:03:29,104
Many who have examined
the Badlands Guardian
71
00:03:29,206 --> 00:03:32,854
suggest that, based on the
amount of detail it displays,
72
00:03:32,956 --> 00:03:35,002
this is highly unlikely.
73
00:03:36,401 --> 00:03:38,274
When the mainstream
scientific community
74
00:03:38,362 --> 00:03:40,081
looks at the Badlands Guardian,
75
00:03:40,169 --> 00:03:43,081
their first explanation is that
it was created by weathering,
76
00:03:43,229 --> 00:03:44,994
uh, rain and water runoff.
77
00:03:45,126 --> 00:03:47,182
But there's just so much detail
78
00:03:47,276 --> 00:03:48,854
that we're seeing
in this formation
79
00:03:48,942 --> 00:03:51,024
that it goes way beyond
anything nature could make.
80
00:03:51,218 --> 00:03:53,633
It not only has
basic facial features,
81
00:03:53,721 --> 00:03:56,651
it has secondary facial
features, such as the eyelid.
82
00:03:56,963 --> 00:03:58,861
The only thing missing
from the Badlands Guardian
83
00:03:58,948 --> 00:04:00,307
is an ear feature.
84
00:04:00,745 --> 00:04:02,573
Now, the interesting thing
about that is,
85
00:04:02,661 --> 00:04:04,125
the local government in Canada,
86
00:04:04,221 --> 00:04:06,399
they had found
a gas deposit there,
87
00:04:06,487 --> 00:04:07,667
right where the ear should be.
88
00:04:07,754 --> 00:04:09,371
There might have been
an ear there at one time,
89
00:04:09,458 --> 00:04:11,246
but now, because they put
an access road there
90
00:04:11,333 --> 00:04:14,393
and they built this gas feature,
that was all erased.
91
00:04:14,739 --> 00:04:18,784
Archaeologists are often
mistaken about ancient sites.
92
00:04:19,135 --> 00:04:23,035
And what is actually a pyramid
that's now, say,
93
00:04:23,122 --> 00:04:27,284
covered in soil
and has a forest on it
94
00:04:27,612 --> 00:04:30,327
can be mistaken
for just a natural hill.
95
00:04:30,421 --> 00:04:34,643
This has happened in...
in South America, in China,
96
00:04:34,865 --> 00:04:37,322
Archaeologists
are continually finding
97
00:04:37,379 --> 00:04:39,971
that things
they think are natural
98
00:04:40,102 --> 00:04:42,120
are actually artificial.
99
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,142
Some of the geoglyphs
found around the world
100
00:04:46,401 --> 00:04:49,612
were formed simply by removing
the top layer of soil
101
00:04:49,700 --> 00:04:52,642
to expose the lighter colored
dirt underneath.
102
00:04:52,948 --> 00:04:56,276
But if the Badlands Guardian
is also a geoglyph,
103
00:04:56,432 --> 00:05:00,034
creating it would have been
an enormous undertaking.
104
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,659
The massive concave formation
is almost half a mile long
105
00:05:05,776 --> 00:05:08,565
and it is over 1,100 feet wide.
106
00:05:09,752 --> 00:05:10,853
For comparison,
107
00:05:10,941 --> 00:05:14,129
the Mount Rushmore National
Monument in South Dakota,
108
00:05:14,210 --> 00:05:16,901
which was completed in 1941,
109
00:05:16,995 --> 00:05:19,149
is approximately 80 feet tall
110
00:05:19,237 --> 00:05:21,315
and 200 feet wide.
111
00:05:21,776 --> 00:05:24,203
And while it is only
a fraction of the size
112
00:05:24,291 --> 00:05:25,774
of the Badlands Guardian,
113
00:05:25,862 --> 00:05:29,393
constructing it required
an enormous amount of work,
114
00:05:29,517 --> 00:05:31,580
even with modern technology.
115
00:05:32,980 --> 00:05:36,002
The carving
officially started in 1927,
116
00:05:36,135 --> 00:05:39,166
and it was
considered complete in 1941.
117
00:05:39,706 --> 00:05:41,948
My grandfather was
on the mountain
118
00:05:42,036 --> 00:05:45,643
approximately from 1933 to 1941.
119
00:05:45,791 --> 00:05:48,190
He was chief carver
on Mount Rushmore.
120
00:05:48,278 --> 00:05:50,198
It took about 400 workers.
121
00:05:50,331 --> 00:05:52,041
It took 14 years.
122
00:05:52,210 --> 00:05:56,063
And when I think about
the amount of time and effort
123
00:05:56,151 --> 00:05:58,711
that it took
for people in the '30s
124
00:05:58,799 --> 00:06:00,768
to create Mount Rushmore,
125
00:06:00,928 --> 00:06:02,776
I can't even begin to imagine
126
00:06:02,871 --> 00:06:05,626
what the person or persons
had to do,
127
00:06:05,714 --> 00:06:07,876
working on something the size
of the Badlands Guardian.
128
00:06:07,964 --> 00:06:10,776
I-I can't even wrap my head
around it.
129
00:06:10,927 --> 00:06:13,782
How was it possible
that the people that carved this
130
00:06:13,870 --> 00:06:15,205
thousands of years ago
131
00:06:15,293 --> 00:06:17,446
were able to see
what they were doing
132
00:06:17,534 --> 00:06:19,261
or know what they were doing?
133
00:06:19,670 --> 00:06:23,330
They must have had assistance
by extraterrestrial beings.
134
00:06:24,566 --> 00:06:26,997
The Badlands
Guardian can only be
135
00:06:27,085 --> 00:06:29,317
fully appreciated from the sky.
136
00:06:29,489 --> 00:06:32,512
So you have to wonder why.
137
00:06:32,942 --> 00:06:34,690
Well, then the answer is:
138
00:06:34,778 --> 00:06:36,916
people on the ground wanted
139
00:06:37,004 --> 00:06:40,145
to signal someone up in the sky.
140
00:06:42,028 --> 00:06:44,127
For ancient astronaut theorists,
141
00:06:44,215 --> 00:06:46,145
the Badlands Guardian
could offer
142
00:06:46,247 --> 00:06:48,393
some of the most compelling
new evidence
143
00:06:48,481 --> 00:06:51,221
that extraterrestrial
intervention occurred on Earth
144
00:06:51,309 --> 00:06:52,754
in the distant past...
145
00:06:52,896 --> 00:06:56,911
that is, if it really is
an artificial structure.
146
00:06:58,318 --> 00:07:00,174
♪ ♪
147
00:07:00,262 --> 00:07:01,987
Boston, Massachusetts.
148
00:07:02,075 --> 00:07:05,168
February 2019.
149
00:07:05,301 --> 00:07:06,715
Aerospace engineer
150
00:07:06,803 --> 00:07:09,471
and satellite imaging expert
Mark Carlotto
151
00:07:09,566 --> 00:07:11,840
has spent countless hours
examining
152
00:07:11,928 --> 00:07:15,551
the Badlands Guardian to see
if he can determine for certain
153
00:07:15,700 --> 00:07:19,122
whether it is something
other than a natural formation.
154
00:07:19,614 --> 00:07:21,512
The image
of the Badlands Guardian
155
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,573
is very striking
as this Native American figure,
156
00:07:24,661 --> 00:07:27,237
and there are some properties
that are unusual.
157
00:07:27,325 --> 00:07:29,229
So I did some analysis,
158
00:07:29,317 --> 00:07:31,487
uh, using some imaging software
159
00:07:31,575 --> 00:07:34,101
and the height map
of the feature.
160
00:07:34,188 --> 00:07:35,528
We'll start with an overview
161
00:07:35,616 --> 00:07:37,723
of the Badlands Guardian
image here.
162
00:07:37,811 --> 00:07:40,411
We see the figure in the middle
of the image here,
163
00:07:40,526 --> 00:07:42,362
and notice
the surrounding landform's
164
00:07:42,450 --> 00:07:44,465
very similar in morphology.
165
00:07:44,629 --> 00:07:47,598
So, now what we'll do is
we'll zoom up on the figure.
166
00:07:48,989 --> 00:07:50,747
You can see it
a little bit more clearly,
167
00:07:50,897 --> 00:07:54,355
the, um, this iconic face, so...
168
00:07:54,499 --> 00:07:57,081
what can we do to bring out,
you know, some information?
169
00:07:57,169 --> 00:08:00,128
Well, we ran a program
that extracts the height,
170
00:08:00,288 --> 00:08:03,298
or elevation,
uh, from the figure.
171
00:08:03,458 --> 00:08:06,258
And the way it's depicted here
is... is: dark is low
172
00:08:06,345 --> 00:08:08,640
and bright is high.
173
00:08:08,728 --> 00:08:11,804
So now, after we've taken
the image and texture-mapped it
174
00:08:11,892 --> 00:08:14,711
onto the elevation surface,
we can view it in 3D.
175
00:08:14,895 --> 00:08:18,005
And, um, now
I'm moving around it
176
00:08:18,093 --> 00:08:21,125
and viewing it like
we might see it in a drone.
177
00:08:21,318 --> 00:08:23,599
And as you can see, when
you're looking straight down
178
00:08:23,687 --> 00:08:25,225
on the Badlands Guardian,
179
00:08:25,313 --> 00:08:27,990
it's, uh,
this uncanny resemblance
180
00:08:28,078 --> 00:08:29,404
to a Native American.
181
00:08:29,492 --> 00:08:31,240
But as we look off angle,
182
00:08:31,328 --> 00:08:34,263
and as we look at it
from ground level,
183
00:08:34,351 --> 00:08:37,289
simulated ground level,
you see the illusion disappears.
184
00:08:37,517 --> 00:08:40,786
So clearly this feature,
if it was created,
185
00:08:40,874 --> 00:08:42,726
was meant to be viewed
from above.
186
00:08:43,203 --> 00:08:45,367
One important factor for Mark
187
00:08:45,455 --> 00:08:48,717
is how information looks
when the lighting changes.
188
00:08:49,093 --> 00:08:52,180
If the Badlands Guardian
still appears as a face
189
00:08:52,268 --> 00:08:55,535
under different conditions,
it could strengthen the argument
190
00:08:55,623 --> 00:08:58,068
that it's
an artificial structure.
191
00:08:58,604 --> 00:09:01,305
And as you can see, what we've
simulated here in these views
192
00:09:01,393 --> 00:09:04,099
are noontime views,
so the Sun is at noon,
193
00:09:04,217 --> 00:09:05,694
in the summer...
194
00:09:05,959 --> 00:09:08,175
the spring or fall
and the winter.
195
00:09:08,263 --> 00:09:09,942
Notice in the winter
the shadows are longer.
196
00:09:10,029 --> 00:09:11,709
The Sun is lower in the sky.
197
00:09:11,804 --> 00:09:15,646
And in all three, you definitely
get this impression of a face.
198
00:09:15,766 --> 00:09:17,495
It implies
it's very interesting,
199
00:09:17,583 --> 00:09:21,021
and if it's not,
uh, artificially created,
200
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,631
nature is having
a great joke on us.
201
00:09:24,373 --> 00:09:27,224
To me,
the Badlands Guardian looks artificial.
202
00:09:27,318 --> 00:09:29,373
It doesn't look like
a trick of nature
203
00:09:29,469 --> 00:09:31,269
and that I'm suffering
from apophenia.
204
00:09:31,357 --> 00:09:33,074
All humans do have apophenia,
205
00:09:33,162 --> 00:09:34,897
meaning they see patterns
where patterns are not.
206
00:09:34,984 --> 00:09:38,320
That's why we see Mickey Mouse
in the clouds and so on.
207
00:09:38,408 --> 00:09:41,179
But this looks
too specifically like
208
00:09:41,328 --> 00:09:45,169
some type of native person
with a headdress on.
209
00:09:45,257 --> 00:09:46,466
Looking at this picture,
210
00:09:46,554 --> 00:09:48,898
you can see the natural patterns
of erosion.
211
00:09:49,038 --> 00:09:51,562
So it's clear to me
from this picture
212
00:09:51,725 --> 00:09:53,921
that this is
an artificial structure.
213
00:09:54,562 --> 00:09:56,958
Did a
grandmother in Saskatchewan
214
00:09:57,046 --> 00:09:59,579
accidentally discover
physical evidence
215
00:09:59,666 --> 00:10:03,023
of extraterrestrial
intervention on Earth?
216
00:10:03,664 --> 00:10:06,810
But if so,
how long has it been there?
217
00:10:06,898 --> 00:10:07,974
Who built it?
218
00:10:08,062 --> 00:10:10,625
And what does it mean?
219
00:10:11,312 --> 00:10:13,687
Perhaps further clues
can be found
220
00:10:13,775 --> 00:10:16,841
by examining other geoglyphs
that have been discovered
221
00:10:16,929 --> 00:10:18,508
all over the world,
222
00:10:19,140 --> 00:10:22,398
and the strange figures
they depict.
223
00:10:28,023 --> 00:10:29,500
In 1820,
224
00:10:29,612 --> 00:10:32,491
the prominent German
mathematician and physicist
225
00:10:32,630 --> 00:10:34,272
Carl Friedrich Gauss
226
00:10:34,483 --> 00:10:36,499
began to explore the possibility
227
00:10:36,587 --> 00:10:39,913
that there are other intelligent
beings in our solar system.
228
00:10:40,351 --> 00:10:43,069
He hypothesized
that alien life-forms
229
00:10:43,157 --> 00:10:45,124
might be able to view
the surface of our planet
230
00:10:45,212 --> 00:10:47,882
through the use
of superior technology,
231
00:10:48,279 --> 00:10:50,356
and proposed
that we could attempt
232
00:10:50,444 --> 00:10:51,944
to communicate with them
233
00:10:52,038 --> 00:10:53,981
by creating large-scale shapes
234
00:10:54,069 --> 00:10:56,054
and figures in the Earth...
235
00:10:57,913 --> 00:11:01,257
what are known today
as geoglyphs.
236
00:11:01,345 --> 00:11:02,891
Gauss' idea was simple,
237
00:11:03,016 --> 00:11:05,522
that tracks of forests
be planted
238
00:11:05,655 --> 00:11:07,845
in the shape of right triangles
239
00:11:08,524 --> 00:11:11,071
so that at great distances,
240
00:11:11,167 --> 00:11:14,376
patterns of triangles
would be visible from space.
241
00:11:14,464 --> 00:11:18,876
He tried to come up with an idea
of how we could signal
242
00:11:19,079 --> 00:11:21,688
our existence here down
on Earth,
243
00:11:21,930 --> 00:11:23,352
and not just signal,
244
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,727
but to tell 'em that we
were intelligent.
245
00:11:27,181 --> 00:11:30,243
So what he devised
was to create
246
00:11:30,331 --> 00:11:33,829
this huge geoglyph in Siberia
247
00:11:33,950 --> 00:11:36,641
showing the Pythagorean
triangle.
248
00:11:39,310 --> 00:11:41,532
This is something
that you can only work out
249
00:11:41,639 --> 00:11:44,087
if you have mathematical
knowledge.
250
00:11:44,813 --> 00:11:47,087
So he wanted to convey
this knowledge
251
00:11:47,204 --> 00:11:51,391
to these intelligences
outside of our own planet.
252
00:11:53,852 --> 00:11:55,178
More than a century
253
00:11:55,266 --> 00:11:57,892
after Gauss proposed creating
figures in the Earth
254
00:11:57,980 --> 00:12:00,462
to communicate with
extraterrestrials,
255
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:04,602
pilots flying over southern Peru
in the 1930s discovered
256
00:12:04,690 --> 00:12:08,441
hundreds of giant geoglyphs
etched into the desert soil:
257
00:12:08,676 --> 00:12:12,196
the Nazca Lines.
258
00:12:12,970 --> 00:12:14,532
As there is no record of when
259
00:12:14,620 --> 00:12:16,715
or why the Nazca Lines
were formed...
260
00:12:16,803 --> 00:12:18,509
or even who made them...
261
00:12:18,597 --> 00:12:22,165
scholars can only guess as
to what purpose they served.
262
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,329
But is it possible
that these geoglyphs
263
00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:27,194
were created by ancient people
264
00:12:27,282 --> 00:12:30,110
who were doing exactly
what Carl Gauss proposed:
265
00:12:30,805 --> 00:12:32,521
attempting to communicate
266
00:12:32,609 --> 00:12:35,613
with beings looking down
on Earth from above?
267
00:12:36,398 --> 00:12:37,711
This is a huge area
268
00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:41,242
where these straight lines
stretch for many, many miles.
269
00:12:42,289 --> 00:12:44,609
And then effigies
such as spiders
270
00:12:44,697 --> 00:12:48,883
and birds and other animals
also carved into the landscape.
271
00:12:50,407 --> 00:12:52,750
It wasn't until
the invention of the airplane
272
00:12:52,878 --> 00:12:55,210
that we were able to observe
the Nazca Lines
273
00:12:55,298 --> 00:12:57,875
from the vantage point
they were designed for.
274
00:12:58,508 --> 00:13:01,312
With the ability to see
the Earth from new heights,
275
00:13:01,402 --> 00:13:04,219
more and more geoglyphs
were discovered.
276
00:13:05,055 --> 00:13:07,336
And now,
with satellite imagery,
277
00:13:07,489 --> 00:13:09,891
it has been revealed
that our ancestors
278
00:13:09,979 --> 00:13:14,281
created similar formations
all over the world.
279
00:13:14,805 --> 00:13:16,656
They've been finding geoglyphs
280
00:13:16,781 --> 00:13:19,219
in Asia, the Middle East,
Africa,
281
00:13:19,324 --> 00:13:22,949
North America, South America,
Australia,
282
00:13:23,036 --> 00:13:25,382
all over the world
they're finding geoglyphs.
283
00:13:26,632 --> 00:13:28,704
We have earthen geoglyphs
284
00:13:28,792 --> 00:13:31,195
such as Serpent Mound in Ohio.
285
00:13:31,359 --> 00:13:35,204
In England, at Glastonbury,
we have the Glastonbury Zodiac,
286
00:13:35,298 --> 00:13:37,968
constellations carved
into the landscape.
287
00:13:38,226 --> 00:13:40,209
We also have
the Blythe Intaglios
288
00:13:40,303 --> 00:13:42,281
in the western part
of America.
289
00:13:42,369 --> 00:13:44,804
So all the geoglyphs
all over the world
290
00:13:44,975 --> 00:13:48,757
do suggest that the ancients
were using the Earth
291
00:13:48,845 --> 00:13:51,609
as, like, a canvas,
but why would they do this?
292
00:13:52,492 --> 00:13:54,223
Were they sending messages up
293
00:13:54,311 --> 00:13:57,062
into the sky
for other beings to see?
294
00:14:01,147 --> 00:14:03,980
It might be a test of some sort,
295
00:14:04,411 --> 00:14:06,451
uh, a code, a puzzle.
296
00:14:07,475 --> 00:14:10,592
Something that
we would only recognize
297
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:15,304
when we had developed
powered flight and satellites.
298
00:14:15,515 --> 00:14:18,406
Does it lead to a next step?
299
00:14:19,288 --> 00:14:21,648
These massive geoglyphs,
300
00:14:21,756 --> 00:14:24,134
they're not art for art's sake.
301
00:14:24,222 --> 00:14:26,756
They did it for
a very specific purpose,
302
00:14:26,850 --> 00:14:29,091
for a purpose
of communicating with
303
00:14:29,193 --> 00:14:32,718
and interacting with
extraterrestrial beings.
304
00:14:33,632 --> 00:14:37,203
Is it possible that
an extraterrestrial civilization
305
00:14:37,354 --> 00:14:41,031
is monitoring us much like
Carl Gauss predicted?
306
00:14:41,484 --> 00:14:43,805
One part of Gauss's hypothesis
307
00:14:43,955 --> 00:14:47,224
that now seems very plausible
is the idea
308
00:14:47,312 --> 00:14:49,937
that extraterrestrials may have
the technology
309
00:14:50,025 --> 00:14:54,148
to view details on the Earth's
surface from great distances.
310
00:14:54,399 --> 00:14:57,085
Could it be they are waiting
for the day
311
00:14:57,173 --> 00:15:01,187
when we humans demonstrate
the ability to do the same?
312
00:15:03,287 --> 00:15:06,163
That day may be closer
than we think,
313
00:15:06,431 --> 00:15:07,992
as scientists are learning
314
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,523
how to view the surfaces
of faraway planets
315
00:15:10,637 --> 00:15:14,038
through a process called
gravitational lensing.
316
00:15:14,132 --> 00:15:16,865
A regular lens happens 'cause
you have a change
317
00:15:16,953 --> 00:15:19,788
in index of refraction, which
changes the speed of light.
318
00:15:20,031 --> 00:15:23,661
A gravitational lens literally
is curving space itself,
319
00:15:23,749 --> 00:15:26,413
and light now travels
that curved path.
320
00:15:26,501 --> 00:15:29,099
What it allows us to do
in exploring space
321
00:15:29,279 --> 00:15:31,262
is it will allow us to observe
322
00:15:31,382 --> 00:15:34,091
or look at things we wouldn't
otherwise be able to see.
323
00:15:35,212 --> 00:15:37,083
In 2019,
324
00:15:37,260 --> 00:15:39,001
the Hubble Space Telescope used
325
00:15:39,089 --> 00:15:41,644
a naturally occurring
gravitational lens,
326
00:15:41,732 --> 00:15:43,763
a bend in space-time,
327
00:15:43,888 --> 00:15:45,474
in order to capture the light
328
00:15:45,562 --> 00:15:48,536
of a large galaxy cluster
in the Leo constellation
329
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,308
that was previously
too far away and dim to see.
330
00:15:54,528 --> 00:15:56,956
While Hubble utilized
a gravitational lens
331
00:15:57,044 --> 00:15:58,880
that already existed in space,
332
00:15:58,968 --> 00:16:04,107
it is possible that one day we
may be able to create our own.
333
00:16:04,614 --> 00:16:07,224
If there was an
extraterrestrial civilization
334
00:16:07,312 --> 00:16:10,237
that had that technology
and was far enough along
335
00:16:10,325 --> 00:16:12,864
to make a gravitational lens
that magnified,
336
00:16:12,952 --> 00:16:15,034
that might allow them
to view things, for instance,
337
00:16:15,122 --> 00:16:18,263
on Earth, that you couldn't
with just a standard lens.
338
00:16:19,231 --> 00:16:20,270
Is it possible
339
00:16:20,358 --> 00:16:23,411
that extraterrestrials created
markers on Earth
340
00:16:23,499 --> 00:16:25,130
that they were capable of seeing
341
00:16:25,218 --> 00:16:27,521
from the far reaches of space?
342
00:16:27,889 --> 00:16:31,561
And did our ancestors then
construct their own geoglyphs
343
00:16:31,663 --> 00:16:35,155
in the hopes that the alien
visitors would return?
344
00:16:35,483 --> 00:16:38,309
Perhaps a piece of the puzzle
can be revealed
345
00:16:38,397 --> 00:16:43,441
by examining geoglyphs of
strange humanoid-type beings.
346
00:16:43,623 --> 00:16:45,520
At Nazca, we see what appears
347
00:16:45,608 --> 00:16:48,132
to be a humanoid figure wearing
a space suit.
348
00:16:48,288 --> 00:16:52,074
At the Blythe Intaglio,
we see a very strange, tall,
349
00:16:52,334 --> 00:16:54,510
spindly human being.
350
00:16:54,654 --> 00:16:56,249
Then you have the Atacama Giant
351
00:16:56,337 --> 00:17:00,342
who has these lines coming out
on the top of his head.
352
00:17:00,852 --> 00:17:03,364
The Badlands Guardian
is unique among all
353
00:17:03,452 --> 00:17:05,241
the geoglyphs we've found
around the world.
354
00:17:05,443 --> 00:17:07,928
It's the only one
that has a face.
355
00:17:08,592 --> 00:17:10,779
Most of the humanoid geoglyphs
356
00:17:10,874 --> 00:17:15,779
are of a full figure who is
looking directly at the sky.
357
00:17:15,928 --> 00:17:18,594
But the Badlands Guardian
is different.
358
00:17:18,682 --> 00:17:21,591
He's in profile;
it's just his head.
359
00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:23,842
It's a Native American face
360
00:17:23,930 --> 00:17:26,631
and Native Americans lived
in that area.
361
00:17:27,037 --> 00:17:30,045
And Native American history
is filled
362
00:17:30,133 --> 00:17:34,623
with stories of sky people
descending from above.
363
00:17:35,404 --> 00:17:38,012
It's maybe a signal, "Hey",
364
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,858
this is us down here.
Come and say hello."
365
00:17:41,358 --> 00:17:44,897
Is it possible that the
geoglyphs of humanoid figures,
366
00:17:45,264 --> 00:17:47,483
and also the Badlands Guardian,
367
00:17:47,571 --> 00:17:51,196
illustrate actual
extraterrestrial visitors?
368
00:17:52,088 --> 00:17:55,400
Perhaps further clues
can be found by examining
369
00:17:55,488 --> 00:17:58,513
a nearby site that boasts
the greatest concentration
370
00:17:58,601 --> 00:18:02,096
of rock art on the
North American Great Plains,
371
00:18:03,361 --> 00:18:07,783
dating back
at least 9,000 years.
372
00:18:15,369 --> 00:18:18,955
Writing-on-Stone
Provincial Park, Canada.
373
00:18:20,462 --> 00:18:22,947
Here, less than
a hundred miles away
374
00:18:23,035 --> 00:18:26,378
from the Badlands Guardian,
is an incredible record
375
00:18:26,466 --> 00:18:28,822
of local Native American
traditions.
376
00:18:29,838 --> 00:18:32,236
Thousands of ancient
petroglyphs,
377
00:18:32,877 --> 00:18:34,837
images carved into stone,
378
00:18:34,931 --> 00:18:36,721
depict every aspect of life
379
00:18:36,809 --> 00:18:39,588
for the people who lived here
centuries ago.
380
00:18:40,268 --> 00:18:42,408
There are ancient calendars,
381
00:18:43,041 --> 00:18:45,635
depictions of animals, humans,
382
00:18:45,723 --> 00:18:48,940
entire battle scenes,
and the Blackfoot gods,
383
00:18:49,028 --> 00:18:52,471
who they also refer to
as "sky beings."
384
00:18:55,175 --> 00:18:57,096
In various Native American
traditions,
385
00:18:57,184 --> 00:19:00,031
we have different
spiritual beings located
386
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,541
on these sort of different
planes of existence.
387
00:19:03,416 --> 00:19:04,924
And there's a wonderful range
388
00:19:05,012 --> 00:19:08,315
of stories in many, many
Native American groups that talk
389
00:19:08,403 --> 00:19:10,330
about some of the adventures
and interactions
390
00:19:10,418 --> 00:19:13,791
with these sky people
with the humans on Earth.
391
00:19:15,924 --> 00:19:17,387
For the Blackfoot,
392
00:19:17,474 --> 00:19:19,541
the most prominent
of these sky beings
393
00:19:19,629 --> 00:19:24,046
is the one they credit
with their creation, Napi.
394
00:19:24,151 --> 00:19:27,352
The creator god of
the Blackfoot is called Napi,
395
00:19:27,454 --> 00:19:29,621
and in this petroglyph
he can be seen,
396
00:19:29,749 --> 00:19:32,877
what appears to be inside
of a disc.
397
00:19:33,432 --> 00:19:36,619
And he's very strange-looking
'cause he's got four fingers,
398
00:19:36,729 --> 00:19:39,611
he's got sort of
an elongated skull.
399
00:19:41,498 --> 00:19:43,135
The Blackfoot tell
400
00:19:43,223 --> 00:19:46,472
a really interesting
creation myth about Napi.
401
00:19:46,877 --> 00:19:50,711
They tell how he came to Earth
and created various animals
402
00:19:50,799 --> 00:19:52,695
and-and other creatures.
403
00:19:52,783 --> 00:19:54,705
And then one day
he decided to form
404
00:19:54,793 --> 00:19:57,908
a living human being
out of clay.
405
00:19:58,838 --> 00:20:02,141
And then he goes and leaves
the Blackfoot alone...
406
00:20:06,355 --> 00:20:09,471
but he promises
that he's going to return.
407
00:20:11,402 --> 00:20:13,549
The Blackfoot regard Napi
408
00:20:13,637 --> 00:20:16,703
not as mythological,
but as a real being
409
00:20:16,791 --> 00:20:19,018
who descended from the heavens.
410
00:20:20,830 --> 00:20:23,596
So the Star People
in Native American traditions
411
00:20:23,752 --> 00:20:26,275
are beings who came
from the cosmos
412
00:20:26,908 --> 00:20:29,500
and taught the arts
of civilization,
413
00:20:29,588 --> 00:20:32,486
agriculture, medicine,
healing,
414
00:20:32,574 --> 00:20:35,983
and they brought maps
of the cosmos to Earth.
415
00:20:37,023 --> 00:20:39,777
Throughout especially
the western part of America,
416
00:20:39,865 --> 00:20:40,915
we find,
417
00:20:41,003 --> 00:20:42,848
petroglyph or rock art
418
00:20:42,942 --> 00:20:45,860
that portrays what appear
to be star beings.
419
00:20:46,376 --> 00:20:48,092
People can look
at this art and say,
420
00:20:48,180 --> 00:20:50,885
"That's a depiction
of an extraterrestrial."
421
00:20:51,234 --> 00:20:53,736
And this is one way that
the First Nations people
422
00:20:53,824 --> 00:20:57,885
recorded their interactions
with the Star People.
423
00:20:58,486 --> 00:21:00,604
Could this petroglyph of Napi
424
00:21:00,775 --> 00:21:02,318
be a depiction of a being
425
00:21:02,412 --> 00:21:04,076
that the ancient Blackfoot
encountered
426
00:21:04,163 --> 00:21:06,432
coming down from the sky?
427
00:21:07,065 --> 00:21:09,469
And might this provide
further evidence
428
00:21:09,557 --> 00:21:11,682
that the local indigenous
populations
429
00:21:11,770 --> 00:21:14,650
were visited by
extraterrestrials?
430
00:21:15,377 --> 00:21:18,084
Ancient Astronaut theorists
say, yes,
431
00:21:18,252 --> 00:21:21,260
and believe
the Badlands Guardian may reveal
432
00:21:21,401 --> 00:21:23,485
how the ancients communicated
433
00:21:23,591 --> 00:21:26,346
with these otherworldly
visitors.
434
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,213
Now, the headdress that he wears
435
00:21:28,301 --> 00:21:29,900
is called a medicine hat, uh,
which...
436
00:21:29,988 --> 00:21:33,002
it's not a chief's regalia
that you would see
437
00:21:33,090 --> 00:21:35,791
with all the feathers going down
that a chief would wear.
438
00:21:36,141 --> 00:21:38,018
What a medicine hat entails
439
00:21:38,106 --> 00:21:41,033
is it incorporates
the tail feathers of an eagle.
440
00:21:41,658 --> 00:21:44,165
And these are normally worn
by, uh, the medicine man.
441
00:21:44,478 --> 00:21:47,375
The medicine man...
this is a wisdom figure,
442
00:21:47,463 --> 00:21:50,539
a combination of professor,
doctor and priest
443
00:21:50,627 --> 00:21:52,010
all in one person.
444
00:21:52,127 --> 00:21:55,025
The hat is what we tend to call
a headdress.
445
00:21:55,267 --> 00:21:59,089
The shamanic, ceremonial leader
uses that
446
00:21:59,177 --> 00:22:02,055
to make contact
with invisible dimensions,
447
00:22:02,143 --> 00:22:04,260
often thought of
as upper worlds,
448
00:22:04,604 --> 00:22:07,976
in which contact is made
with spirits, gods,
449
00:22:08,064 --> 00:22:11,531
energy that is beyond
our understanding.
450
00:22:11,689 --> 00:22:13,633
The fact that he's wearing
a medicine hat
451
00:22:13,721 --> 00:22:17,635
that acts as a antenna tells us
that this is a figure who was
452
00:22:17,723 --> 00:22:20,299
in communication
with otherworldly beings,
453
00:22:20,490 --> 00:22:22,369
maybe even the Star People.
454
00:22:24,900 --> 00:22:27,289
If
Extraterrestrials communicated
455
00:22:27,377 --> 00:22:29,437
with the ancient
Blackfoot Indians,
456
00:22:29,525 --> 00:22:32,250
is it possible
that they imparted the knowledge
457
00:22:32,338 --> 00:22:36,190
and technology to construct
the Badlands Guardian?
458
00:22:36,447 --> 00:22:38,766
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest
459
00:22:38,854 --> 00:22:41,065
that not only
did extraterrestrials
460
00:22:41,174 --> 00:22:43,687
visit people living
in the Alberta Badlands
461
00:22:43,775 --> 00:22:45,596
in the distant past,
462
00:22:45,690 --> 00:22:49,517
but that they continue to visit
the region to this very day.
463
00:22:51,508 --> 00:22:55,520
Certain areas of the world
are hotbeds of UFO activity.
464
00:22:55,861 --> 00:23:00,111
And, in fact, Alberta, Canada,
is one of these hotbeds.
465
00:23:00,603 --> 00:23:04,879
There's constantly UFO sightings
in the day and night,
466
00:23:04,986 --> 00:23:08,791
and there's quite a few photos
and films that can be seen.
467
00:23:08,987 --> 00:23:13,518
In 2009 alone, there were
over 150 reported sightings
468
00:23:13,611 --> 00:23:16,010
of UFOs in Alberta.
469
00:23:16,098 --> 00:23:19,453
One of the most famous
UFO sightings in that area
470
00:23:19,541 --> 00:23:21,172
happened in 1967
471
00:23:21,259 --> 00:23:24,884
when a person named Warren Smith
and two of his friends
472
00:23:24,971 --> 00:23:26,875
were out walking in this area,
473
00:23:26,963 --> 00:23:29,822
and in broad daylight,
they then saw
474
00:23:29,910 --> 00:23:34,908
a silvery, disc-shaped UFO
hovering around the trees.
475
00:23:36,243 --> 00:23:38,311
The witnesses took their photos,
476
00:23:38,399 --> 00:23:41,415
and then, finally,
the UFO vanished.
477
00:23:42,924 --> 00:23:44,234
Warren Smith's photos
478
00:23:44,322 --> 00:23:46,291
of this craft
as it was lifting into the sky
479
00:23:46,379 --> 00:23:49,670
were analyzed by
the Photo Interpretation Center.
480
00:23:49,932 --> 00:23:53,080
The experts there determined
that the photos were real
481
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,872
and that it matched
the description
482
00:23:54,959 --> 00:23:56,658
of what he said he saw,
483
00:23:56,753 --> 00:23:59,251
suggesting that this
was a genuine experience
484
00:23:59,338 --> 00:24:03,198
and that these were, in fact,
genuine photos of a craft.
485
00:24:03,869 --> 00:24:06,833
The area where Warren Smith
took the photos isn't far
486
00:24:06,921 --> 00:24:09,260
from where the Badlands Guardian
is located.
487
00:24:09,510 --> 00:24:10,993
Does this suggest that aliens
488
00:24:11,091 --> 00:24:13,659
have a continuing interest
in this area?
489
00:24:14,674 --> 00:24:17,790
With all of this
UFO activity in Alberta,
490
00:24:17,878 --> 00:24:20,731
and it's in the vicinity
of the Badlands Guardian,
491
00:24:20,888 --> 00:24:25,961
you have to wonder
if this area isn't some portal
492
00:24:27,516 --> 00:24:29,779
or inter-dimensional spot
493
00:24:29,867 --> 00:24:32,344
where UFOs are coming and going.
494
00:24:32,622 --> 00:24:34,764
And you have to wonder
if it's something to do
495
00:24:34,852 --> 00:24:36,305
with the Badlands Guardian.
496
00:24:37,055 --> 00:24:38,725
Does the Badlands Guardian
497
00:24:38,813 --> 00:24:40,294
represent a medicine man
498
00:24:40,430 --> 00:24:43,180
who communicated
with the Star People?
499
00:24:43,623 --> 00:24:46,256
Or could it be depicting
a star being,
500
00:24:46,344 --> 00:24:48,844
one who taught the indigenous
people of the region
501
00:24:48,953 --> 00:24:52,473
a means of communicating
with extraterrestrials?
502
00:24:52,766 --> 00:24:56,387
Ancient astronaut theorists
believe the answer can be found
503
00:24:56,535 --> 00:25:00,140
only by forensically examining
the Badlands Guardian
504
00:25:00,233 --> 00:25:02,273
and taking a closer look
505
00:25:02,360 --> 00:25:05,349
at the shape
of the figure's head.
506
00:25:13,318 --> 00:25:15,995
Los Angeles, California.
507
00:25:16,747 --> 00:25:19,999
February 2019.
508
00:25:20,325 --> 00:25:24,076
Ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos is meeting up
509
00:25:24,164 --> 00:25:26,797
with forensic 3-D artist
Marcia Moore.
510
00:25:26,884 --> 00:25:29,300
- Marcia. Pleasure to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
511
00:25:29,388 --> 00:25:31,136
- How are you? Okay.
- Come on in.
512
00:25:31,323 --> 00:25:32,925
Wow, look at this space.
513
00:25:33,075 --> 00:25:35,235
Since learning
about the Badlands Guardian,
514
00:25:35,323 --> 00:25:36,682
Marcia has been working
515
00:25:36,769 --> 00:25:38,347
to reconstruct it digitally
516
00:25:38,481 --> 00:25:41,706
to see what it would look like
as a three-dimensional head
517
00:25:42,089 --> 00:25:44,188
and perhaps provide
further clues
518
00:25:44,276 --> 00:25:47,675
as to who or what
it was modeled after.
519
00:25:48,510 --> 00:25:50,362
- Pull up a chair.
- Great.
520
00:25:50,529 --> 00:25:53,026
- And we'll discuss this guardian.
- Uh-huh.
521
00:25:53,174 --> 00:25:54,894
So, you've taken this,
522
00:25:54,982 --> 00:25:57,276
and clearly you've seen the face
523
00:25:57,364 --> 00:25:59,597
and decided
to recreate the face.
524
00:25:59,661 --> 00:26:00,682
- Absolutely.
- Okay.
525
00:26:00,770 --> 00:26:01,806
And what did you come up with?
526
00:26:01,893 --> 00:26:04,649
Well, the first step for me
527
00:26:04,737 --> 00:26:07,128
is to just take a look
at the terrain.
528
00:26:07,216 --> 00:26:10,590
I think, honestly, the whole
aerial view when you look at it,
529
00:26:10,678 --> 00:26:13,378
there's a whole storyboard
of information going on here.
530
00:26:13,466 --> 00:26:17,118
But we're focusing on this face
because this is very prominent.
531
00:26:17,206 --> 00:26:19,079
So, you can tell
532
00:26:19,167 --> 00:26:22,638
we've got a neck area
that's rather extended.
533
00:26:22,732 --> 00:26:23,898
Some feathers,
534
00:26:23,986 --> 00:26:25,733
and then, also, this elongation
535
00:26:25,821 --> 00:26:29,250
that's forming
around this headdress.
536
00:26:30,706 --> 00:26:31,844
Mm-hmm.
537
00:26:31,932 --> 00:26:34,076
- All right, go on.
- From there, I created
538
00:26:34,164 --> 00:26:35,651
a 3-D sculpture.
539
00:26:36,446 --> 00:26:39,652
I'm starting
with just a normal-sized head.
540
00:26:39,740 --> 00:26:43,230
So, I will overlay
the aerial view,
541
00:26:44,032 --> 00:26:46,172
and I'm going to create layers.
542
00:26:47,218 --> 00:26:50,282
And I'm actually just following
the terrain.
543
00:26:50,469 --> 00:26:52,716
I'm creating this long neck,
544
00:26:52,803 --> 00:26:56,481
and I'm creating
this elongated head.
545
00:26:56,855 --> 00:26:59,504
And here we have it.
This is the sculpture.
546
00:27:00,383 --> 00:27:04,075
Everything in 3-D is mirrored
on the other side,
547
00:27:04,163 --> 00:27:06,963
- so as we turn this around...
- Right.
548
00:27:07,386 --> 00:27:11,126
And this is what he would like
if that thing on the ground
549
00:27:11,214 --> 00:27:13,473
- were a person.
- Absolutely.
550
00:27:13,791 --> 00:27:15,299
Yeah, that's pretty awesome.
551
00:27:15,455 --> 00:27:17,847
You know,
after the buildup of the 3-D sculpture,
552
00:27:17,935 --> 00:27:19,729
I made a digital piece
of artwork
553
00:27:19,817 --> 00:27:22,042
that will flesh this entity out.
554
00:27:22,130 --> 00:27:23,472
Mm-hmm.
555
00:27:27,217 --> 00:27:29,092
That looks great.
556
00:27:32,916 --> 00:27:34,214
You know,
I think it's really cool
557
00:27:34,301 --> 00:27:39,682
that you've kind of pointed out
the elongation of the skull.
558
00:27:41,073 --> 00:27:42,425
This whole phenomenon
559
00:27:42,513 --> 00:27:46,534
of elongated skulls
exists worldwide.
560
00:27:46,622 --> 00:27:50,407
Not only do we have these shapes
in this geographic area,
561
00:27:50,495 --> 00:27:53,509
but also, for example,
in South America,
562
00:27:53,597 --> 00:27:56,597
in Peru, but also in Europe,
563
00:27:56,685 --> 00:27:59,094
in the Hittite region,
present-day Turkey,
564
00:27:59,182 --> 00:28:02,557
all with these long skulls.
565
00:28:04,034 --> 00:28:05,626
Around the world,
566
00:28:05,714 --> 00:28:08,009
ancient skulls have been found
that are thin,
567
00:28:08,097 --> 00:28:10,352
long and misshapen.
568
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,034
In addition to the skulls,
569
00:28:12,122 --> 00:28:15,251
there are many ancient
depictions of historical figures
570
00:28:15,339 --> 00:28:18,198
with extra large,
elongated heads.
571
00:28:18,807 --> 00:28:21,368
What's controversial
about the elongated skulls
572
00:28:21,456 --> 00:28:25,581
is that their cranial capacity
is greater than a normal human.
573
00:28:25,728 --> 00:28:28,854
So these may not be cases
of cranial deformation.
574
00:28:29,034 --> 00:28:30,222
These could be examples
575
00:28:30,310 --> 00:28:33,034
of a whole subspecies
of humanity.
576
00:28:33,425 --> 00:28:36,534
Worldwide, we have these people
577
00:28:36,643 --> 00:28:40,415
in depictions
wearing these long headdresses,
578
00:28:40,503 --> 00:28:43,407
and sometimes
you even see pictures,
579
00:28:43,495 --> 00:28:45,393
especially in ancient Egypt,
580
00:28:45,584 --> 00:28:49,854
where you see the same figures
without the headdress,
581
00:28:50,058 --> 00:28:54,309
and guess what?
They have elongated skulls.
582
00:28:54,870 --> 00:28:57,011
So, you have to ask yourself,
583
00:28:57,151 --> 00:28:59,831
why is there a, uh...
584
00:28:59,919 --> 00:29:03,629
a figure coming out
of the terrain that has, to me,
585
00:29:03,717 --> 00:29:06,350
seems like
an elongated shaped head.
586
00:29:07,018 --> 00:29:08,229
The idea is
587
00:29:08,317 --> 00:29:10,993
that Earth was visited
by extraterrestrials
588
00:29:11,081 --> 00:29:12,398
a long time ago.
589
00:29:12,675 --> 00:29:15,025
And one of my opinions is
590
00:29:15,112 --> 00:29:19,925
that the elongated skull people
were the actual visitors,
591
00:29:20,013 --> 00:29:22,751
and the skeletons
that are found today are some
592
00:29:22,839 --> 00:29:24,159
of the few remnants
593
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:26,642
of the people that were here
a long time ago,
594
00:29:26,737 --> 00:29:28,602
clearly people
that looked like us
595
00:29:28,690 --> 00:29:31,362
except for that they had
an elongated skull.
596
00:29:31,486 --> 00:29:33,312
- So, that, to me, is fascinating.
- Yeah.
597
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,046
Marcia, thank you so much
for sharing your work with me.
598
00:29:37,134 --> 00:29:40,279
You've given me a lot
to think about, so thank you.
599
00:29:40,367 --> 00:29:42,234
- Thank you.
- Appreciate it. All right, take care.
600
00:29:42,321 --> 00:29:43,788
Bye-bye.
601
00:29:44,865 --> 00:29:47,089
Does the
three-dimensional reconstruction
602
00:29:47,177 --> 00:29:49,952
of the Badlands Guardian
point to the possibility
603
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,187
that it was not only built to be
seen by visitors from the sky,
604
00:29:53,468 --> 00:29:56,148
but that it may even be
a representation
605
00:29:56,265 --> 00:29:58,718
of an extraterrestrial?
606
00:29:59,921 --> 00:30:01,906
Could this be the face
of the being
607
00:30:01,994 --> 00:30:06,515
the Blackfoot people identify
as their creator god, Napi?
608
00:30:07,538 --> 00:30:09,614
Perhaps the answers can be found
609
00:30:09,702 --> 00:30:11,568
by examining
yet another geoglyph
610
00:30:11,656 --> 00:30:14,148
that resembles a human face...
611
00:30:15,295 --> 00:30:16,765
on Mars.
612
00:30:21,492 --> 00:30:24,882
July 19, 1976.
613
00:30:25,492 --> 00:30:28,609
A NASA spacecraft
named Viking 1 enters
614
00:30:28,697 --> 00:30:30,687
into orbit above Mars.
615
00:30:30,843 --> 00:30:32,554
Just six days later,
616
00:30:32,812 --> 00:30:34,772
it takes a photograph
of the Red Planet
617
00:30:34,859 --> 00:30:36,499
that is so extraordinary
618
00:30:36,593 --> 00:30:39,818
it immediately seizes
the public imagination.
619
00:30:40,195 --> 00:30:42,397
In the summer of 1976,
620
00:30:42,491 --> 00:30:45,843
NASA announced that
they had found a face on Mars.
621
00:30:45,931 --> 00:30:49,989
Now, NASA was the original group
of scientists
622
00:30:50,077 --> 00:30:52,107
to label
the face on Mars a head...
623
00:30:52,195 --> 00:30:53,832
it was actually in their file...
624
00:30:53,919 --> 00:30:56,521
and they said that they had
found this formation on Mars
625
00:30:56,609 --> 00:30:57,841
that looked like a face.
626
00:30:57,929 --> 00:30:59,581
However, just a few days later,
627
00:30:59,675 --> 00:31:01,256
they had
a second press conference,
628
00:31:01,390 --> 00:31:02,758
and they said
that they had taken
629
00:31:02,845 --> 00:31:05,021
a second image,
days later, and it...
630
00:31:05,109 --> 00:31:07,341
they found that it was just
a trick of light and shadow
631
00:31:07,429 --> 00:31:08,867
and there was nothing there.
632
00:31:08,968 --> 00:31:10,423
Could it be that the image
633
00:31:10,510 --> 00:31:12,779
of a giant face
on the Martian surface
634
00:31:12,867 --> 00:31:15,966
is actually
an artificial structure,
635
00:31:16,054 --> 00:31:18,279
a physical record that someone,
636
00:31:18,367 --> 00:31:20,861
or something, has been there?
637
00:31:21,484 --> 00:31:25,413
Perhaps a clue can be found
by comparing the Face on Mars
638
00:31:25,530 --> 00:31:27,406
with the Badlands Guardian.
639
00:31:27,929 --> 00:31:29,585
So,
the face is about a mile wide
640
00:31:29,673 --> 00:31:32,023
and about a mile
and two-thirds long.
641
00:31:32,111 --> 00:31:34,497
The Face on Mars is larger
than the Badlands Guardian,
642
00:31:34,585 --> 00:31:36,896
but the Badlands Guardian
is large enough
643
00:31:36,984 --> 00:31:39,179
that you can still see it
in satellite imagery.
644
00:31:39,428 --> 00:31:40,794
To determine if the face
645
00:31:40,882 --> 00:31:42,874
was created by natural means,
646
00:31:42,968 --> 00:31:46,958
imaging expert Mark Carlotto
conducted a scientific analysis
647
00:31:47,046 --> 00:31:48,773
of the Martian structure.
648
00:31:49,178 --> 00:31:50,544
All right, so,
in this overview,
649
00:31:50,632 --> 00:31:52,560
we see the Face on Mars
in the middle.
650
00:31:52,648 --> 00:31:54,349
One of the tests that was done
651
00:31:54,437 --> 00:31:56,318
on the Face of Mars
was to assess
652
00:31:56,406 --> 00:31:59,710
whether it was an artificial
or a natural object.
653
00:31:59,940 --> 00:32:03,239
We applied a technique called
fractal, uh, analysis
654
00:32:03,327 --> 00:32:06,405
to model
the background terrain locally.
655
00:32:06,492 --> 00:32:09,074
We have a filter that basically
computes a little fractal model
656
00:32:09,161 --> 00:32:10,997
as it moves over the image.
657
00:32:11,085 --> 00:32:13,523
And we see,
if we go back and forth here
658
00:32:13,611 --> 00:32:15,179
to the original image
659
00:32:15,267 --> 00:32:17,693
and now the output
of the fractal model,
660
00:32:17,781 --> 00:32:21,504
fractal filter, the face
has a very high response.
661
00:32:21,592 --> 00:32:22,818
And this was a very, uh,
662
00:32:22,906 --> 00:32:25,257
unexpected result,
uh, at the time.
663
00:32:25,344 --> 00:32:26,794
And the fractal technique found
664
00:32:26,882 --> 00:32:28,560
that it doesn't
just look like a face
665
00:32:28,648 --> 00:32:30,583
but it actually is,
statistically,
666
00:32:30,671 --> 00:32:31,818
in terms of the structure,
667
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,902
different
from the surrounding landforms.
668
00:32:34,375 --> 00:32:37,209
One criticism
of this formation is
669
00:32:37,304 --> 00:32:39,187
that, in more recent images,
670
00:32:39,383 --> 00:32:43,233
the impression of a face
is much less evident.
671
00:32:43,351 --> 00:32:45,977
The structure appears
much more highly eroded.
672
00:32:46,098 --> 00:32:48,232
But if it is an ancient feature,
673
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,990
you would expect erosion
would have taken its toll
674
00:32:51,078 --> 00:32:52,694
over the course of time.
675
00:32:52,788 --> 00:32:54,745
If we flip it back and forth,
676
00:32:54,832 --> 00:32:56,912
there's a very high degree
of correspondence
677
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,707
between the left
and the right side, making it
678
00:32:58,794 --> 00:33:00,584
a highly bisymmetrical object.
679
00:33:00,671 --> 00:33:04,537
Bisymmetry would imply
an artificial, uh, construction,
680
00:33:04,625 --> 00:33:07,146
'cause nature would have
to conspire quite a bit
681
00:33:07,234 --> 00:33:09,968
to create something that's not
only face-like but bisymmetrical
682
00:33:10,055 --> 00:33:13,931
and possessing all the detail
that the Face on Mars possesses.
683
00:33:14,318 --> 00:33:17,170
The other interesting thing
about the Face on Mars
684
00:33:17,258 --> 00:33:20,615
is that NASA has taken,
over the last 25, 30 years,
685
00:33:20,703 --> 00:33:23,420
over 40 images
of the Face on Mars,
686
00:33:23,508 --> 00:33:26,172
a formation that they say
they have no interest in.
687
00:33:27,038 --> 00:33:29,373
If the Face on Mars is, in fact,
688
00:33:29,461 --> 00:33:32,233
a fabricated structure,
who built it?
689
00:33:32,711 --> 00:33:35,060
Does it have a connection
to the giant face
690
00:33:35,156 --> 00:33:37,484
recently discovered in Canada
691
00:33:38,109 --> 00:33:40,718
and perhaps other structures
around the globe
692
00:33:40,820 --> 00:33:43,234
that were made to be seen
from the sky?
693
00:33:44,773 --> 00:33:45,951
Curiously,
694
00:33:46,039 --> 00:33:49,005
many who have examined
the Face on Mars have observed
695
00:33:49,093 --> 00:33:51,357
that the area surrounding it
seems to point
696
00:33:51,445 --> 00:33:54,719
to a connection
to one specific place on Earth,
697
00:33:55,515 --> 00:33:56,758
Egypt.
698
00:33:57,211 --> 00:33:58,804
Something extraordinary happened
699
00:33:58,899 --> 00:34:01,976
when we started taking pictures
of the surface of Mars.
700
00:34:02,218 --> 00:34:06,525
We saw what appeared to be
pyramids on the surface of Mars.
701
00:34:06,750 --> 00:34:08,117
It's mind-blowing,
702
00:34:08,293 --> 00:34:12,710
because these match
the pyramids of ancient Egypt.
703
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,263
Is there a connection
between Mars and Egypt?
704
00:34:16,351 --> 00:34:17,599
Well, indeed, there is.
705
00:34:17,687 --> 00:34:19,234
The city of Cairo
706
00:34:19,484 --> 00:34:22,499
was originally called
al-Qahirah, which meant
707
00:34:22,586 --> 00:34:26,164
"City of Mars"
or "the Victorious."
708
00:34:26,406 --> 00:34:29,258
The Egyptians referred
to the Sphinx
709
00:34:29,359 --> 00:34:30,976
as Ra-Horakhty,
710
00:34:31,101 --> 00:34:33,294
which means
"Place of the Horizon,"
711
00:34:33,389 --> 00:34:36,883
which is the very same name
that they gave to Mars.
712
00:34:37,134 --> 00:34:40,304
So there seems to be
a-a deep-embedded memory
713
00:34:40,437 --> 00:34:43,063
in ancient Egypt of
a correspondence or a connection
714
00:34:43,229 --> 00:34:45,146
between Egyptian civilization
715
00:34:45,234 --> 00:34:47,734
and one
that might have been on Mars.
716
00:34:48,289 --> 00:34:50,745
If we are dealing with something
717
00:34:50,897 --> 00:34:53,468
extraterrestrial in origin,
718
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,866
then the-the Egyptian connection
719
00:34:56,954 --> 00:34:58,578
is very telling,
720
00:34:58,738 --> 00:35:01,693
because many, many speculations
721
00:35:01,781 --> 00:35:06,359
about the extraterrestrial links
with ancient Egypt.
722
00:35:07,914 --> 00:35:09,421
But if there is a connection
723
00:35:09,508 --> 00:35:13,164
between the Cydonia region
of Mars and ancient Egypt,
724
00:35:13,593 --> 00:35:15,385
what is the significance?
725
00:35:15,851 --> 00:35:18,098
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest
726
00:35:18,186 --> 00:35:19,984
further clues can be found
727
00:35:20,072 --> 00:35:23,164
by taking a closer look
at the Badlands Guardian
728
00:35:23,444 --> 00:35:26,679
and the famous ruler
it's thought to depict.
729
00:35:27,492 --> 00:35:29,576
The Badlands Guardian
730
00:35:29,664 --> 00:35:31,610
is very similar
731
00:35:31,789 --> 00:35:33,754
to the statues of Akhenaten,
732
00:35:33,842 --> 00:35:36,343
the renegade Egyptian pharaoh.
733
00:35:36,875 --> 00:35:39,341
He and Nefertiti
and their children
734
00:35:39,429 --> 00:35:41,734
all had elongated heads,
735
00:35:41,859 --> 00:35:44,711
as we see all around the world
736
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:48,625
and is often associated
with extraterrestrials.
737
00:35:48,844 --> 00:35:52,588
When you put an image of
the Egyptian pharaoh, Akhenaten,
738
00:35:52,676 --> 00:35:55,466
beside the image
of the Badlands Guardian,
739
00:35:55,554 --> 00:35:57,594
they're virtually identical.
740
00:35:57,681 --> 00:35:59,748
When you do the "A" to "B"
comparison,
741
00:35:59,836 --> 00:36:03,578
they both have this long neck,
this very elongated face.
742
00:36:03,727 --> 00:36:05,414
And Akhenaten, of course,
743
00:36:05,502 --> 00:36:08,616
is the great mystic pharaoh
of ancient Egypt.
744
00:36:09,031 --> 00:36:11,052
Ancient astronaut theorists
believe
745
00:36:11,140 --> 00:36:14,156
that he might have
extraterrestrial connections.
746
00:36:14,413 --> 00:36:17,990
Akhenaten claimed
that he was in contact
747
00:36:18,078 --> 00:36:21,617
with a celestial disk
he referred to as the Aten.
748
00:36:21,711 --> 00:36:24,716
In fact, he taught the Egyptians
to no longer worship
749
00:36:24,804 --> 00:36:28,162
the whole pantheon
of over 360 deities
750
00:36:28,250 --> 00:36:30,359
and to only worship the Aten.
751
00:36:30,447 --> 00:36:33,262
And given the fact
that his mummy has disappeared
752
00:36:33,350 --> 00:36:35,374
only adds to the mystery.
753
00:36:35,679 --> 00:36:38,749
Is this, in fact,
a human being we're looking at
754
00:36:38,889 --> 00:36:41,591
or could this possibly be
a representation
755
00:36:41,679 --> 00:36:43,850
of some other type of a being,
756
00:36:43,939 --> 00:36:46,022
maybe an extraterrestrial, even?
757
00:36:47,069 --> 00:36:48,602
If the Badlands Guardian
758
00:36:48,690 --> 00:36:51,725
is a representation
not of a Native American
759
00:36:51,813 --> 00:36:55,648
but of an extraterrestrial known
in Egypt as Akhenaten,
760
00:36:56,022 --> 00:36:58,567
could it bring us closer
to solving a puzzle
761
00:36:58,655 --> 00:37:01,054
whose pieces are scattered
all over the world
762
00:37:01,286 --> 00:37:04,397
and even on other planets?
763
00:37:04,608 --> 00:37:06,841
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest
764
00:37:06,929 --> 00:37:09,040
that a much more recent
discovery on Mars
765
00:37:09,127 --> 00:37:10,949
provides yet another piece
766
00:37:11,037 --> 00:37:14,147
that may finally complete
the puzzle.
767
00:37:21,904 --> 00:37:23,569
Waterford, Virginia.
768
00:37:23,678 --> 00:37:25,584
2017.
769
00:37:26,671 --> 00:37:29,596
Cydonia Institute researcher
George Haas
770
00:37:29,826 --> 00:37:32,450
is combing
through satellite images of Mars
771
00:37:32,538 --> 00:37:34,882
when he spies
a discernible shape.
772
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,679
It appears to be
the image of another face.
773
00:37:40,264 --> 00:37:43,372
Unlike the original
so-called Face on Mars
774
00:37:43,460 --> 00:37:45,585
discovered in 1976,
775
00:37:45,835 --> 00:37:48,639
this face appears in profile,
776
00:37:48,897 --> 00:37:51,585
similar to that
of the Badlands Guardian.
777
00:37:52,100 --> 00:37:53,817
So, in this area
778
00:37:53,905 --> 00:37:56,880
called Utopia,
in a huge impact crater,
779
00:37:57,085 --> 00:37:58,983
is the profile face
780
00:37:59,787 --> 00:38:01,592
that has a beard, a mustache,
781
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,514
and he's wearing a helmet
that has an avian headdress.
782
00:38:05,694 --> 00:38:08,012
When the bearded profile on Mars
783
00:38:08,100 --> 00:38:11,100
is compared
to the Badlands Guardian,
784
00:38:11,272 --> 00:38:13,655
we see the same type of profile.
785
00:38:13,951 --> 00:38:16,481
Both incorporate
avian iconography.
786
00:38:16,569 --> 00:38:18,231
One has a headdress of feathers.
787
00:38:18,319 --> 00:38:19,926
The other one
is wearing a headdress
788
00:38:20,014 --> 00:38:21,905
that incorporates
an entire bird.
789
00:38:22,249 --> 00:38:25,083
I think the culture
that produced these formations
790
00:38:25,171 --> 00:38:28,944
on Mars had a direct
relationship to the human race.
791
00:38:31,054 --> 00:38:32,473
Is an ancient story
792
00:38:32,561 --> 00:38:35,757
being told through geoglyphs
that exist both on Earth
793
00:38:35,850 --> 00:38:38,858
and on our closest
neighboring planet?
794
00:38:39,381 --> 00:38:40,505
And, if so,
795
00:38:40,593 --> 00:38:43,927
what happened to those
responsible for writing it?
796
00:38:44,374 --> 00:38:47,520
Perhaps civilization
on Mars was destroyed.
797
00:38:47,608 --> 00:38:49,217
Or, perhaps,
798
00:38:49,593 --> 00:38:53,022
civilization began on Mars
799
00:38:53,143 --> 00:38:55,506
and then moved to Earth.
800
00:38:56,835 --> 00:39:00,755
Earth was, in a sense, seeded
by a Martian civilization,
801
00:39:00,843 --> 00:39:02,063
and that is why we have
802
00:39:02,157 --> 00:39:05,139
similar structures on Mars
and on planet Earth.
803
00:39:06,823 --> 00:39:10,485
So, with the discovery
of the Face on Mars,
804
00:39:10,573 --> 00:39:12,041
is it possible
805
00:39:12,129 --> 00:39:14,610
that it's acting as a clue,
806
00:39:14,698 --> 00:39:16,151
it's telling us
807
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,266
that, somewhere here,
is evidence
808
00:39:20,338 --> 00:39:22,707
of a lost civilization
809
00:39:23,066 --> 00:39:25,869
that existed on the Red Planet
810
00:39:25,957 --> 00:39:28,158
perhaps millions of years ago?
811
00:39:28,246 --> 00:39:30,908
That's a very tantalizing
possibility,
812
00:39:31,011 --> 00:39:32,908
and it's one that I know
813
00:39:32,996 --> 00:39:35,729
that every scientist
going to Mars
814
00:39:35,817 --> 00:39:37,525
wants to answer.
815
00:39:39,277 --> 00:39:40,600
Maybe these geoglyphs
816
00:39:40,688 --> 00:39:43,207
were all part
of some global memorial
817
00:39:43,295 --> 00:39:46,900
that was built by some unknown
extraterrestrial culture
818
00:39:46,994 --> 00:39:49,450
that, uh, has to do
with, uh, human origins
819
00:39:49,538 --> 00:39:51,963
and is telling the story
of where we came from
820
00:39:52,051 --> 00:39:54,355
and possibly where
we may be going.
821
00:39:54,839 --> 00:39:57,650
You have to ask,
is there something in common
822
00:39:57,738 --> 00:40:00,902
between the people that
were making these geoglyphs,
823
00:40:00,990 --> 00:40:03,881
and the answer is, is that
they all have similar stories
824
00:40:03,969 --> 00:40:06,301
in these earthly civilizations.
825
00:40:07,574 --> 00:40:10,057
They're in contact
with star beings,
826
00:40:10,145 --> 00:40:12,127
celestial beings
that came to Earth
827
00:40:12,215 --> 00:40:14,223
and are assisting humanity.
828
00:40:14,988 --> 00:40:17,754
They lived with us,
they interacted with us.
829
00:40:17,933 --> 00:40:19,540
Then they left.
830
00:40:20,793 --> 00:40:22,025
But is it possible
831
00:40:22,113 --> 00:40:24,832
that not all of the
communications we're receiving
832
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:29,496
from these otherworldly beings
are in the form of geoglyphs?
833
00:40:29,926 --> 00:40:31,883
Could crop circles,
for instance,
834
00:40:31,971 --> 00:40:33,455
be more recent examples
835
00:40:33,543 --> 00:40:36,873
of a type
of extraterrestrial dialogue?
836
00:40:38,282 --> 00:40:41,299
If you bring
crop circles into the mix,
837
00:40:41,404 --> 00:40:43,418
there are some
very sophisticated crop circles
838
00:40:43,506 --> 00:40:47,010
that also indicate, uh,
knowledge of fractal geometry.
839
00:40:47,098 --> 00:40:48,369
There could be a message.
840
00:40:48,457 --> 00:40:50,010
They might be communicating
with us,
841
00:40:50,098 --> 00:40:52,871
and we might, perhaps,
want to communicate with them.
842
00:40:54,112 --> 00:40:56,559
It's possible
that many of these geoglyphs,
843
00:40:56,647 --> 00:40:59,840
much like crop circles
that appear every summer,
844
00:40:59,933 --> 00:41:02,767
might give us clues to our past
845
00:41:02,863 --> 00:41:04,434
and to our destiny.
846
00:41:04,901 --> 00:41:06,314
The fact of the matter is
847
00:41:06,402 --> 00:41:09,262
that we have geoglyphs
worldwide.
848
00:41:09,492 --> 00:41:12,588
And with the improvement
of our technology,
849
00:41:12,683 --> 00:41:15,642
who knows what else
we'll discover
850
00:41:15,730 --> 00:41:18,090
in the next five to ten years?
851
00:41:18,184 --> 00:41:22,371
We are entering
a new era of discovery,
852
00:41:22,631 --> 00:41:26,746
and I can't wait to see
what tomorrow brings.
853
00:41:30,770 --> 00:41:33,863
As we send
more spacecrafts to Mars,
854
00:41:34,004 --> 00:41:36,184
will we continue
to uncover evidence
855
00:41:36,277 --> 00:41:38,435
of an alien civilization
856
00:41:38,522 --> 00:41:41,434
that could have lived there
centuries ago?
857
00:41:42,793 --> 00:41:45,777
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes
858
00:41:46,473 --> 00:41:48,801
and believe
that the human race is getting
859
00:41:48,889 --> 00:41:51,395
very close to the day
when it will unlock
860
00:41:51,484 --> 00:41:54,496
what they believe
to be an alien code
861
00:41:54,832 --> 00:41:58,309
and find a means
of direct communication,
862
00:41:58,509 --> 00:42:01,574
a living link
between mankind's past
863
00:42:01,801 --> 00:42:04,860
and its extraterrestrial future.
