Megalithic monuments,
linked together by electromagnetic energy
Prehistoric ruins
arranged across vast distances in straight lines
and advanced mathematics carved into landmarks
more than 5,000 years ago
Or ancient men spectacular structures
built by humans alone
or do they bear evidence of being designed
and interconnected by otherworldly visitors
PHILIP COPPENS: These cultures were doing something a global scale
interacting, creating a pattern.
BILL BIRNES: The layout of these ancient monuments could be
a secret code that the ancients created for later societies.
DAVID CHILDRESS: The ancients placed pyramids and obelisks,
and other standing stones at key places.
And they were somehow being used as navigational beacons
by the ancients and the extraterrestrials.
NARRATOR: Millions of people around the world believe
we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings.
What if it were true?
Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history?
And if so, did they leave behind a secret code, one which
reveals mankind's extraterrestrial origins?

Stonehenge in England,
The Great Pyramid of Egypt--
Teotihuacan, Mexico
and Machu Picchu, Peru.
All around the world, ancient man built extraordinary structures.
And although separated by vast distances and thousands of years,
researchers believe that a secret code, embedded in
megalithic monuments, may reveal the truth behind
the connections between numerous ancient civilizations.
COPPENS: When you look at where the ancients built their
monuments it is clear that they were marking the places where
the power of the Earth could be harnessed.
So the question really is can we still maintain that all of these
sites were simply chosen by accident?
Or is there far more to it than that?
The evidence clearly suggests that these cultures were doing something
a global scale interacting, creating a pattern.
which is really unique and lost to us right now.
NARRATOR: Some researchers have discovered a strong connection
between sacred structures and powerfully charged areas of the globe
where the Earth's electromagnetic energy gathers
Electromagnetic energy waves provide for all visible light
and today's radio and cellular communication.
As well as microwaves and X-rays.
MICHAEL DENNIN: Energy scientifically is a property that things have
that we say technically allow us to do work or make things move
So you think of things like magnetic fields, electric fields, gravity
things moving, heating things up, those are all forms of energy.
And the one thing that we know is that the Earth has a magnetic field.
And the magnetic field connects different parts on the Earth
HUGH NEWMAN: And strange anomalies occur like gravitational anomalies again
and magnetic anomalies, and even like anomalies to do with
the distortions of vision.
There is a mark, that on a map, where they all are,
they seem to form these kind of geometric grids
CHILDRESS: It seems that ancient people
possibly with the help of ancient aliens
early on mapped the entire Earth and noted these special power spots
and vortex areas.
that occur on islands and mountain areas
and jungles all around the planet.
It was important to them,
and these places are related by geometry, and latitude, and longitude.
NARRATOR: Known as "the world grid",
ancient astronaut theorists believe our ancestors
purposely constructed their monuments on energy lines
that when mapped and connected, create a significant pattern.
CHILDRESS: The concept of the world grid is that the Earth is
like a giant crystal and energy
is flowing around it at little nodules,
and energy paths are intersecting and moving all over the world.
NARRATOR: In the 4th century BC, Greek philosopher and
mathematician Plato taught that the basic structure of the Earth
evolved from geometric shapes now known as Platonic Solids.
NEWMAN: Plato left a tantalizing clue as to possibly
the first mention of the world grid.
He basically described the Earth as being created from 12
pentagonal faces, and 20 points, or vertexes, on the surface.
And when you join these together and mark them on a map,
you realize that there's kind of geometrical formations
that appear between them.
BETHE HAGENS: Plato wrote that there was a world soul
and in this world soul he described as a sphere,
that was composed of 120 equal identical triangles
I believed that that model actually could be applied to the Earth.
NARRATOR: To illustrate Plato's "Sphere of Triangles,"
anthropologist Bethe Hagens designed a model of the Earth,
divided by 15 circles.
HAGENS: Here you can see a cluster of ten of the triangles
of the 120 that Plato mentioned.
Besides seeing this as triangles, you can see it as 15
equators that actually cut the Earth in half.
You can see they all go around whichever way you look.
They're all great circles.
It's a geometric model of the
Earth energy grid of what Plato discovered 2,500 years ago.
NARRATOR: But is it possible, as ancient astronaut theorists believe,
that man was able to capture and use the Earth's energy
at power centers around the world to help build their megalithic monuments?
NEWMAN: There's fascinating ideas that they were actually using this for
anti-gravitational purposes.
And they were actually able to lift, and quarry, and move the
huge megalithic blocks great distances around the planet.
And so we have to question, was there something to do with this
grid that they were actually harnessing, and they were able
to use the energies from it to move and construct these sites?
NARRATOR: But how could ancient civilizations tap into Earth's energy?
And how could the Earth's electromagnetic energy fields
have even been known to ancient man?
The ancients clearly understood that if they located their sacred sites
at these places they would get some sort of powerful alignment with
the Earth, the universe, everything would come into flow
and it would be a great place for their places of worship
The question is where do they get the information,
is it something that was passed down to them by a higher human civilization
or was it passed down to them from somebody even higher than that.
BIRNES: The layout of these ancient monuments and these celebratory places
because they lie on Earth's magnetic grid well could be
a secret code that the ancients created for later societies
containing a secret about the relationship
of those civilizations to ancient aliens.
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: Extraterrestrials told our ancestors
"Hey, here create this" on that particular point
and they did that all around the world
and now when we connect all those places
when we plot them on a globe they create this perfect pattern
that would have been impossible by chance
It's a huge mystery how it was done
unless you take into consideration that this might've been
a code on code "message" for our generation that was left behind
by extraterrestrials who visited
our ancestors in the remote past.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that early man learned how to harness
the Earth's own powerful energy from extraterrestrial beings?
And, if so, might the finding by researchers of a so-called world
energy grid provide proof of contact with alien visitors?
Ancient astronaut theorists believe the answer, on both
counts is a resounding yes.
CHILDRESS: The world grid could've been used as a source of
free and inexhaustible energy
that was flowing continuously around our planet.
And they were somehow being used by the ancients and the
extraterrestrials for energy, and as even navigational beacons
for their spaceships.
BARA: A lot of these ancient sites on the world grid
are always associated with UFO sightings.
The UFOs themselves seem to understand that these are important places.
And, it's almost as if they are kind of feeding off the energy
of these places, when they come to visit the Earth.
NARRATOR: Did ancient cultures around the world really
build their monuments using powerful Earth energy under the
guidance of star travelers, as
ancient astronaut theorists believe?
Perhaps further evidence can be found by taking a closer look at
the strange link between some of the oldest monuments on Earth
and their connection to the stars.
The Boyne River Valley,
30 miles north of Dublin, Ireland.
Here, within this archaeological site,
lie the ruins of the Newgrange Passage Tomb,
built around 3,150 BC.
ANTHONY MURPHY: This is Newgrange which is Ireland's foremost
monument in terms of its mythical and historical significance
It was constructed here by a community of
farmers and astronomers who inhabited this valley.
And together they enshrined
their spiritual and scientific beliefs, monumentally in stone.
NARRATOR: Constructed with over 200,000 tons of stone
quarried 75 miles away,
Newgrange is known as a passage tomb because the enormous mound
has one passageway that leads to
a centralized chamber in which bone fragments have been found.
MURPHY: This is the chamber of Newgrange,
with its massive corbelled ceiling, which
has kept the chamber dry, completely bone dry, for 5,000 years.
At the end of the chamber here, it opens up into this opening
with the three recesses and there are three very large basin
stones in each of the recesses.
And it was in these basins that the remains of the dead would
have been placed.
The amazing thing about Newgrange is what they've
managed to do with these giant stones is create an opening
in the chamber which accepts
sunlight on the dawn of the winter solstice.
NARRATOR: In fact, the structure's main chamber remains
in darkness, except for one day, at winter solstice,
when the sunrise illuminates the 60-foot long passageway
and central chamber for a mere 17 minutes.
MURPHY: They saw the other world as lying amongst the stars
and they believed that in placing the bones of their
deceased relatives in the chamber, that the souls of the
dead would be brought into the other world on the dawn of the
winter solstice when the light of the sun came in and perhaps
drew the spirit out into the other world.
NARRATOR: The remarkable layout of the tomb's ground plan
is an achievement many researchers believe could only
have been accomplished with advanced knowledge of constellations.
MURPHY: The passage and chamber are cruciform in shape.
They're shaped like a cross, which we think is very
significant because it seems to be based on the shape of the
constellation, Cygnus, which is the swan constellation of the sky.
ANDREW COLLINS: Cygnus is one of the most important
constellations to the ancients.
We know it probably better as the Northern Cross.
And these set of stars seem to mark where the Milky Way
actually breaks into two.
And universally for prehistoric societies around the world, this
point in the sky, known as the Cygnus rift, has been seen as an
entrance and exit into some kind of sky world.
We call it Heaven today and it
was seen as the point in the sky of cosmic creation.
NARRATOR: Is it possible the ancient people at Newgrange
received knowledge of our solar system and distant galaxies from
another, more otherworldly, source, as ancient astronaut
theorists believe?
And might the ancient builders have intentionally left a code
for future civilizations to decipher?
If so, what were they trying to tell us?
GEORGE NOORY: They were experts in astronomy.
They were also experts in building.
How they possessed both I find it to be very uncanny
Because they are supposedly doing this without high tech
equipment and instruments.
But they did look toward the heavens,
and they tried to copy the heavens.
COPPENS: When we look at the ancient people themselves, and
ask why they did it, they are
quite straightforward in answering this question.
And that answer is simply because this has to do with the
gods and figuring out when the gods would come in the future.
NARRATOR: Throughout the world there are numerous ancient sites
that were built in precise alignment with constellations,
primarily Cygnus and Orion.
Perhaps the most famous example can be found at the Giza Plateau
in the layout of the three great pyramids of Egypt.
BAUVAL: I discovered in the early 80s, that there was a correlation
between Orion's belt and the layout of the three pyramids,
you have two large pyramids, aligned with each other, and the
third smaller one offset from that alignment.
Well that's the same way you have the stars.
You have two bright stars and a third less bright star offset
from the line of the other two.
The correlation is evident.
NARRATOR: Other ancient sites
built in close alignment with the constellation of Orion
include: The ancient city of Teotihuacan
in Central Mexico, established in 100 BC,
The layout of ancient Hopi villages in the American Southwest,
and the Thornborough Henges, a Neolithic landscape complex in
Yorkshire, Northern England, dating to between 3500 and 2500 BC.
CHRISTOPHER KNIGHT: The Thornborough Henges are believed to be a copy
of the stars, of Orion's belt.
Their accuracies are just stunning.
Now, is that coincidence? I mean, it really is exact.
NARRATOR: But why were so many civilizations around the world
focused on Orion?
ADRIAN GILBERT: Constellation of Orion has a special magnetism for us.
Partly is because it does look like a man, and certain egyptians claimed
that their gods came from there.
And there is a sense that this is where we come from.
That somehow the human race is being implanted on this planet
and that's where our father lives.
NARRATOR: Some researchers believe, in addition to
mirroring the three stars in Orion's belt, the pyramids at
Giza also encode, in their placement, a significant
message about the origin of their culture.
BAUVAL: The position of Orion's belt relative to the
Milky Way is the same as the pyramids relative to the Nile.
When you look at the two images, they look the same, except one
is stellar and one is earthly.
What adds to this is that the alignment, the pattern of
Orion's belt, matches what is on the ground, not at the time that
Egyptologists tell us, but in 10500 B.C.
When you look at the sky in 10500 B.C.,
the lock is almost perfect.
JASON MARTELL: At that same date, the constellation Leo is aligned
perfectly with the gaze of the Sphinx.
So at 10,500 BC, even though the pyramids were built in 2,500 BC
we see a terrestrial alignment of the monuments on the Earth
mimicking the stars in the sky.
So you have two constellation locking themselves
with two sets of monuments, the Sphinx and the three pyramids
in 10,500 BC
It cannot be a coincidence
Was it something that they intuitively channelled, or did somebody else,
someone from higher up teach them all of this stuff
and helped them to build these monuments and
helped them recreate these messages from ancient times
to try to get us to appreciate who we really are
where were really came from and why are we really here.
NARRATOR: Might the builders of Egypt's pyramids and
of the Newgrange Passage Tomb, really have embedded in their
structures a secret code telling us about the otherworldly
origins of the elite rulers of their societies, as ancient
astronaut theorists believe?
If so, might there be hidden messages contained in other
ancient monuments around the world?
Perhaps answers can be found by
examining what some researchers call "ancient flight paths."
Herefordshire, England
June 30th, 1921
While horseback riding through the British countryside,
amateur archaeologist Alfred Watkins
notices that ancient features and structures across the
landscape appear to be arranged along straight lines.
Four years later, in 1925, Watkins publishes The Old
Straight Track, a book in which he proposes that man's
earliest monuments and megaliths
were linked by a network of long straight tracks.
COLLINS: He referred to the most ley lines
but to as to what these were he could only really say that perhaps
they were lines that were used by the ancients to communicate
from one place to the next.
You know the words they were simply markers on a journey.
BETHE HAGENS: Ley lines are mostly found in England and France
They're literally geographic markings between sacred sites
They might be old churches, they might be
churches built on top of megalithic ruins
but you'll see dead straight lines between
these sites that've been maintained.
LINDA MOULTON HOWE: The Michael Line in England
is a straight line and it is measurable.
It's a magnetic field line that you can measure
and it will be higher than other areas around it geographically.
NARRATOR: In his book Watkins further theorized
that ancient landmarks along ley lines were deliberately placed by early men
for the purpose of line-of-sight navigation
HUGH NEWMAN: Watkins believed they were trade routes, originally
But later it was noticed that some of them went over really obscure terrain
like mountains and bogs and streams and all this kind of stuff,
so they couldn't really have been walking.
Seems more like they were a survey, or a mapping system.
NARRATOR: Some researchers believe that ley lines are
magnetic in nature, and delineate the lines of Earth's
unseen energy fields.
But if ley lines were useful for overland navigation to the
ancients, might they also have been useful for aerial
navigation by extraterrestrial
visitors, as ancient astronaut theorists believe?
TSOUKALOS: Something extraordinary happened along those ley lines
because the ones very physical and real visit of extraterrestrial beings
has been forgotten.
NARRATOR: Trelleborg, Denmark.
Here, along the northern reaches of the European continent, lie
the archaeological ruins of a Viking fortress dating to 900 A.D.
For decades, mainstream historians have been baffled by
the precise nature of Trelleborg's perfectly circular design--
with a courtyard divided into four zones,
each with four longhouses and gateways open precisely to the
four cardinal directions: north, south, east and west.
Some believe such a strict geometric design would have
required extensive knowledge of advanced engineering.
The mystery deepened in 1982, when pilot Preben Hansson
discovered a direct line of flight from Trelleborg to three
other Viking fortresses-- all constructed with a similar design.
PETER FIEBAG (translated): Trelleborg was the starting point
40 miles further another fort appeared.
Then he found others, so that there was a line of four forts
in Denmark.
Given that the Vikings were basically seafaring people
and these site were spread out so far over land in great distances
implies that maybe they had some other way of getting to these places
perhaps they weren't able to fly,
now how they would fly when the technology was...
It is a good question but it seems unlikely
they would be able to find all these spots
surveyed and place monuments and structures there
if they were simply a seafaring race
These Viking fortress are in one straight line
DANIKEN: You continue the one line straight ahead over the Alps
for thousands and thousands of kilometers and under the line always
holy places from antiquity, from Stone Age
And the line points directly to Delphi.
Delphi in Greece.
Delphi was the place of the god Apollo.
And mythology about Apollo says every year, two times, Apollo
took his heavenly chariot, disappeared in a faraway land in
the north.
Apollo flies on one straight line.
At several points, he makes a stop.
Wherever he makes a stop, the Stone Age people start to create
a holy place of it because here was a god.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that the ley lines that connected
early civilizations were actually flight paths,
as ancient astronaut theorists believe?
And might such flight paths have
been used by extraterrestrial spacecraft?
DANIKEN: The extraterrestrials in the past knew exactly that the
future generations would develop technology, they would fly, they
would measure, they would photograph their own land.
So by photographing their land, they would realize something is
strange here on the ground.
BIRNES: How could a straight line link ancient Egypt, the
pyramids, the Oracle of Delphi in Greece, and Viking fortresses
that would've been established thousands of years later.
It made no sense.
But it does make sense if these installations are long straight lines
across the Earth's grid
And somehow those straight lines mark navigational grids.
For extraterrestrials, that used them as markers to navigate the globe
from side to side of it
TSOUKALOS: Is it possible that these ancient sites along ley lines
were nothing else but refueling stations for ancient astronaut craft?
And the answer is yes.
Because just like today, a plane goes in straight lines.
And if a plane needs to refuel, it lands at an airport that's on
its course and not, you know, a thousand miles to the east or a
thousand miles to the west.
A plane flies straight.
COLLINS: It was suggested
that UFO's may be connected in some way,
because it could well be that they are following
the paths of geomagnetic fields,
the different variations, the different strengths that exist.
It was often seen that UFO's seem to either appear or descend or rise.
In connection with where the ley line seemed to intersect
And this has been seen time
and time again around the world at different UFO hot spots.
NARRATOR: Might the sacred sites along ancient flight paths
really have been landing points, or perhaps fueling stations for
extraterrestrial space vehicles?
Perhaps further evidence can be found by examining the ancient
civilizations that are
connected from opposite sides of the globe.
Cuzco, Peru
Here lie the impressive ruins of the
of the ancient capital of the Inca empire
that thrived from the 13th to 15th century.
Long suspected by ancient astronaut theorists to have
been a place visited by
extraterrestrial beings in the distant past--
Cuzco is considered to be an axis mundi,
which in religion or mythology
means the "center" or "navel of the world"
COPPENS: They are very important sites
and quite often when you start looking at
some site like Cuzco, Cuzco literally means "navel of the world"
It was the navel of the empire of the lnca.
So, Cuzco isn't unique, we really find navel sites everywhere.
And navel sites are often the most important of a culture, Jerusalem is one
the Giza Plateau is another.
BIRNES: World navels because they lie along the Earth's magnetic grid.
were places where the ancients created what can only be called heaven's gates
altars, places where human beings could communicate
with otherworldly entities.
NARRATOR: Evidence can also be found connecting Cuzco with
another world navel over 2,000 miles away in the South Pacific--
Easter Island.
Although mainstream historians and archeologists believe the
two places were never in contact in ancient times, Cuzco and
Easter Island feature strikingly similar styles of stonework--
with colossal multi-sided stones precisely fitted as if each
joint was welded together.
TSOUKALOS: The walls at Cuzco are identical to the walls we
can find in the base foundations
of some of the Moai's on Easter Island.
And those two places are so far apart.
I wonder how was it done?
Either the builders traveled from one place to the other or
the builders in each culture were visited by the same teachers.
The teachers from the stars, extraterrestrials.
FIEBAG: These navels of the world might have been geodesic points,
which you could use to navigate from the air.
There are interesting accounts about this. For example from Apollonius,
who lived in Rome in 4 A.D. that he descended with thunder birds
that he had visited the city of the Gods.
There he was given a talisman, which he was supposed to bury.
There is a similar legend from Cuzco.
There the children of the sun
god are supposed to have plunged a rod into the Earth.
And there are similar legends on Easter Island.
NARRATOR: But if Cuzco and Easter Island were linked ancient times
by space in travelers, what might this say
about other "centers of the world"?
Strangely, some ancient civilizations are located on the
exact opposite sides of the planet.
A line drawn from Easter Island through the center of the Earth,
points to Mohenjo-Daro, Pakistan, a once great empire
believed by ancient astronaut theorists to have been destroyed
by a nuclear blast thousands of years ago.
And, from Nazca, Peru, a line through the Earth points to
Angkor Wat, Cambodia-- a site of great religious significance--
known in ancient myths to have been built as a landing zone for
sky beings.
And, astonishingly, these four
sites lie on one circle around the globe-- a circle that also
includes the location of the Great Pyramids of Egypt.
COPPENS: This is really the end of line mystery, I think
which is not necessarily why were these monument built,
for what purpose, but also why were they built on those specific places?
Because really what we are beginning to understand
is that all of these monuments from the past, were not just built
haphazardly on the surface of the earth,
but were built in very specific locations.
It appears that ancient people either mapped the earth
in some esoteric way that we can't quite comprehend yet
or it was sacred knowledge handed down over thousands of years.
NARRATOR: Might such connections between ancient
sites around the world suggest that there was some sort of
strategic link between these civilizations,
as ancient astronaut theorists believe?
And, if so, what could this mean?
Before the advent of satellite-guided global
positioning systems, the science of geodesy was used to determine
the exact position of geographic points on the globe.
One of the oldest of Earth sciences, the use of geodesy
dates back thousands of years.
MARTELL: There's clear records that geodesy was used by
the Sumerians in ancient times.
Several of the landing spots used by the gods
were actually triangulation points to the landing corridor.
Things like Baalbek in Lebanon, or Jerusalem were actually
extensive megalithic monuments with platforms that were used to
launch spacecraft.
And ancient man recorded stories around these locations of seeing
great smoke, fire, and loud noise as these ships ascended or
descended from these locations.
DENNIN: It's probably highly reasonable that the ancients had
systems of navigation.
I mean, we know the Romans did effectively that.
And that was why they were so efficient in getting around their empire
in addition to their roads and keeping track of things
CHILDRESS: In the early era of our own flight,
pilots used markers which would be
church steeple or mountains, obvious physical monuments that they could see
Just like that, the ancient aliens, they were able also use
this world grid, and the pyramids and obelisk and other monuments
that were built as these special power places to navigate
NEWMAN: It's almost like the ancients were building these sites
and they were mapping the planet in vast antiquity,
put it like 10,000 or more years ago
BIRNES: Because of the interaction between ancient
civilization and ancient aliens, these ancient societies,
recognizing the importance of these spots, and the presence of
ancient aliens, place these monuments as a map for the star
people, for the ancient aliens to follow and to direct them to
the civilizations they might well have started by themselves
as colonies.
NARRATOR: Is it really possible that many of the
world's most famous ancient sites were part of an
interconnected network whose placement on the globe was
planned tens of thousands of years ago by visitors from other
galaxies, as ancient astronaut theorists contend?
Perhaps more evidence can be found among numerous strange
symbols hidden in plain view along the northwest coast of France.
The Gulf of Morbaha Along the rocky coast of French Brittany
is the small island of Gavrinis.
Here, lie the remains of a passage grave known as Gavrinis tomb--
built around 3500 BC.
TSOUKALOS: Gavrinis is an extraordinary passage grave
that illustrates highly advanced mathematical knowledge
dating back to prehistoric times.
What's really amazing about Gavrinis is that there are spirals
and hand axes and almost things like look like fingerprints,
that have been carved on to the megalithic slacks
and mathematicians have determined that there are hidden messages
hidden mathematical messages
COPPENS: When people came to Gavrinia, they began to make measurements
on to how the stones were placed, they began to realise
that these stone weren't just placed haphazardly
in some kind of coincidental forms
but actually displayed extraordinary understanding
and knowledge of mathematics.
NARRATOR: 52 megalithic stones were used
in the construction of the passage grave,
of which 26 are engraved with unique symbols.
By adding, dividing and multiplying the numbers of symbols
with significant stones or groups of stones,
researchers have discovered the correct
spherical size of the Earth, the number of days in a year,
and the mathematical constant-- Pi.
SARA SEAGER: Pi is a very special number in mathematics
Pi is a fundamental property of all circles.
It's the ratio of the circle's circumference to its diameter
TSOUKALOS: These mathematicians have not only
determined the numerical Pi way, way, way before it was ever
discovered, quote, unquote, but also the exact longitude and
latitude of the island.
Now that is sensational because why would Stone Age people know
about the longitude and latitude of that particular island?
NARRATOR: But do such findings of precise mathematical
knowledge at Gavrinis, engraved there more than 5,000 years ago,
suggest that its builders were leaving a secret
code for future generations, as ancient astronaut theorists contend?
If so, what might they have wanted to tell us?
NICK REDFERN: We do see evidence of profound
mathematical knowledge at work.
The big question is did we develop that ourselves
or is this an important aspect to the energy ratio that was instilled upon us
by ancient aliens, teaching us about mathematics because it was important
in the very clear precise construction of these huge structures
TSOUKALOS: None of this makes any sense unless
the construction was directly commissioned by extraterrestrials
because they knew that we'd have the wherewithal to decipher the message.
NARRATOR: But is it really possible
that the principles of advanced mathematics were
brought to Earth and given to man by alien visitors?
According to ancient astronaut theorists,
the idea is not only possible-- but probable.
BARA: There is no way that we could have achieved the moon landing
for instance, without very advanced knowledge of higher mathematics
that these ancient cultures seemed to know
way way back, many, many thousands of years
CHILDRESS: This may be the reason that extraterrestrials wanted us
to develop mathematical knowledge ourselves
Because it's only with that special knowledge that we're able to
advance into the skies and to the stars.
LINDA MOULTON HOWE: If you go back through history, let's say to Greece
Mesopotamia, Sumeria, Egypt, where there was clearly
some of the most advanced astronomy, an emergence of advance mathematics,
When these ancient civilizations were building hugely complex
pyramids, and beautiful Doric columns in Greece and the
ziggurats of Mesopotamia, is it possible that none of those
had anything to do with the minds of humans at the time?
But were actually the creation by non humans who have
interacted with this planet for thousands of years?
MARTELL: The Annunaki that came here as gods
to the Sumerian culture gave them
a math system based on the number 12.
And we see this number 12 being repeated throughout time
12 hours in a day, 12 inches in a foot, 12 in a dozen
It spans very much into different parts of our culture.
BARA: There seems to be a single, universal, mathematical
geometric code for how the universe works.
And, somebody has been trying to get us to wake up to this fact
for thousands, and thousands, and thousands of years.
TSOUKALOS: Because ancient astronauts were aware that our
development one day would reach a highly advanced technological
status, they wanted to leave behind some type of a message,
a type of secret code that needed to be deciphered by a future
generation that understood, or would understand what really
happened in the past, and that generation is us.
NARRATOR: The world energy grid-- star alignments--
ancient flight paths-- and mathematics.
Did ancient astronauts really leave behind a secret code
embedded in the stone monuments of early man?
One that reveals the extraterrestrial origins of our world?
If so, why?
Was it to test us, to see if we could figure the code out for
ourselves?
Was it simply to communicate with us?
Or was it to prepare us for the day they will return?
