Unexplained sightings.

The first responders on the scene reported a UFO.

Miraculous appearances.

Inside the tilma was the Virgin Mother.

And visions that changed the world.

This extraordinary sign from the

heavens becomes one of the crucial turning points in human history.

Stories of strange encounters accompany many of

history's major events.

Is it merely coincidence?

Or might it be evidence of extraterrestrial intervention?

It appears that there is an ongoing plan in

place, a hidden hand in history that is manipulating events for

a certain given outcome.

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, might mankind's greatest moments have been

influenced by alien encounters?

Japan.

March 11, 2011.

Emanating 43 miles off the eastern coast of the Oshika Peninsula...

one of the largest earthquakes in recorded history

a magnitude 9.0 shakes the earth.

The massive movement of two tectonic plates instantly moves

the entire Japanese mainland some eight feet,

ripping down buildings, setting fires, and killing thousands of people.

But the worst is yet to come.

The earthquake also triggers enormous tsunamis.

Waves as high as 130 feet begin smashing ashore with devastating consequences.

One wave in particular struck the

Fukushima Daiichi power generating plant and

overwhelmed the safety systems, which caused the plant to enter

a critical phase and release radioactive material into the

atmosphere and into the water.

With the nuclear power plant's reactors melting

down and radiation seeping into

the atmosphere, the authorities evacuate the region.

The only people who remain are employees who struggle for days

to prevent a larger catastrophe from occurring.

But according to eyewitnesses on the scene, these workers were not alone.

There were UFO sightings reported in some

significant numbers in that area in the weeks and the days

leading up to the earthquake and tsunami.

And there were a number of UFO sightings reported in the

immediate area, uh, directly afterward.

And this suggests the possibility that

extraterrestrials were involved in stabilizing that situation.

Because had that Fukushima plant melted down, it would have made

a large swath of Asia uninhabitable for a very long time.

Is it possible that extraterrestrials

became aware of this meltdown and they did something to lessen

the impact of this disaster and ultimately save mankind from

what could have been a much worse cataclysm?

Could extraterrestrials really have

been present at the Fukushima meltdown and might they have

helped to prevent it from being an even more catastrophic disaster?

Ancient astronaut theorists point out that similar accounts

of strange objects seen in the sky were also reported 25 years

earlier during the meltdown at

the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine.

A number of witnesses reported that there

were UFOs hovering around the power station and that even

beams of light were coming down from these UFOs and doing

something to the nuclear power plants, and keeping them from

having a much worse meltdown than they did have.

Some have speculated that the UFOs that were seen

during the crisis may have been, perhaps, protecting us,

trying to stave off a horrifying nuclear explosion.

Or if not protecting us, at least protecting our world.

Was it simply good fortune that the nuclear

accidents at Fukushima and Chernobyl weren't far more deadly?

Or is it possible that the UFOs eyewitnesses spotted were

responsible for averting these catastrophes when humans were

powerless to do so?

Ancient astronaut theorists believe these encounters weren't

random occurrences, but part of an extraterrestrial agenda that

has been in place on Earth for thousands of years.

It appears that there is an ongoing plan in

place, a hidden hand in history that is manipulating events for

a certain given outcome.

It does appear that we are interacting with an alien civilization.

And that we are experiencing the fruits of what they are offering

us because our history is being intelligently guided and

directed to steer us towards a particular outcome.

But if alleged alien encounters really are

evidence that extraterrestrials are intervening in human

affairs, what is their purpose?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest the answer can be found

by looking back at the very earliest alien encounters ever recorded.

Mt. Sinai, the 15th century, B.C.

According to the Bible's Book of Exodus, it was on the peak of

this holy mountain that Moses met with God.

But ancient astronaut theorists believe Moses's encounter may

have been with a different kind of otherworldly entity.

There's an interesting legend passed down

from temple times itself that when Moses ascended to

Mt. Sinai to speak with God, a cloud came down from heaven

and told Moses, "Come into the cloud to ascend to God."

A door opened in the cloud and Moses walked in and it closed

behind him and he ascended.

The Lord descends with smoke, fire, loud

noise, trembling and so on.

All religions speak about the same thing.

They use different names and the stories change, but the basic

stories are always the same

somebody descended with loud noise, smoke, fire.

The humans could not understand what it was.

They misinterpreted and believed that this was God or the gods.

It's just a misinterpretation.

I am absolutely sure-- there's no doubt-- that we were visited

by beings from outer space.

According to ancient astronaut theorists,

such accounts of unearthly encounters can be found in every

major religion, including Islam, where the angel Gabriel, also

known as Jibril, was said to be the intermediary between the

prophet Muhammad and the Muslim god Allah.

Jibril normally would come and dispense wisdom

to Muhammad inside this cave that he was dwelling in.

But on two occasions, Muhammad did not meet Jibril in the cave

in person, Muhammad went outside the cave, and it was at this

time that something absolutely fantastic happened.

What did Muhammad see when he went outside the cave?

The records show that there was a magnificent shining object

there in front of him.

It was said to have 600 wings, and it was burning as if it was on fire.

What do we know of in modern

times that could add up to a sighting like that?

It's obvious.

A craft that would be hovering there in front of him, giving

off brilliant white light that he interpreted as fire.

And when he went out and saw this magnificent shining object,

the same wisdom that he was getting from Jibril was imparted

to him, though he could not see any being, he only could see this object.

Is it possible that many of the stories of gods and

angels descending from the heavens are not actually divine

encounters, but extraterrestrial visitations?

And if so, are they purposely guiding our future?

Ancient astronaut theorists believe further evidence can be

found by examining a famous vision so important, it changed

the course of human history.

Rome.

October 27, 312 A.D.

Just north of the city, the emperor Constantine leads his

troops toward the Milvian Bridge

and a decisive battle with Maxentius to reclaim his throne.

At stake is control over the western part of the vast Roman Empire.

According to an account from the historian Eusebius, on the eve

of the battle, Constantine looks up into the sky...

and sees what he believes is a divine vision.

Constantine and his followers saw in the sky

what their chroniclers say was a huge, white... fiery cross.

Now, his followers didn't know what to make of this, but

Constantine decided that this was the Christian cross.

Constantine feels, after viewing this extraordinary

sign from the heavens, this lighted cross in the sky, that

he will go forth the next day and he will conquer the Roman

Empire, and this is exactly what he does.

This vision becomes one of the crucial turning points in human history.

After winning the brutal battle of Milvian Bridge,

Constantine consolidates his power and begins a campaign of

religious tolerance across the empire, and he himself converts to Christianity.

But what exactly did Constantine see in the sky that ended up

changing the course of Western civilization?

Was it a divine vision... or something else?

Don't we all see crosses up in the sky

when we look at planes?

Because you have lights on the sides and at the front.

And if you have a little bit of

light shining on it, sometimes they look like crosses.

Is it possible that this was

absolutely no Christian symbol at all, but that it was adapted

over time after something that was witnessed up in the sky?

Is it possible that extraterrestrials were

responsible for Constantine's vision?

Ancient astronaut theorists say one compelling piece of evidence

that aliens have tried to manipulate mankind through

religious visions still exists today.

Mexico City.

December 1531.

According to an account called the Nican Mopohua, published in

the Aztec language of Nahuatl,

a peasant named Juan Diego was walking in the countryside when

he heard a beautiful voice singing on the other side of a hill.

Diego climbed the hill and saw an angelic vision

a woman in white garments that shone like the sun.

She said to him, "Juan Diego, I am the

Virgin Mary, and I'm asking you

to build a sanctuary for me here on this hill."

Well, Juan Diego fell to his knees in awe, and he said,

"Great lady, I will do as you desire."

But according to the story, Juan Diego couldn't

convince the local bishop that he had actually seen the Virgin

Mary, so he went back to the hill, where he again saw the vision.

He says, "Lady, please give me a sign, because

nobody believes me when I tell them that I have seen you."

And she says, "Juan Diego, take off your cloak."

And he does, he takes off his cloak, and she fills his cloak with roses.

He took the roses to the bishop, and the bishop

fell down on his knees, because it wasn't the roses as to why he

believed the story from Diego,

but inside the tilma was a painting of the Virgin Mother.

And the bishop believed, and they built the church on that hill.

This cloak still exists today, and despite its

frail fabric, it has reportedly remained in pristine condition

despite the cruel ravages of time.

Right now you can

go to the church and see the tilma hanging there.

And it has not degraded over the 400-plus years that they've had it.

It's been through a fire, it's been through an explosion, where

purportedly an iron cross was twisted from the explosion, but

the tilma right next to the cross was still fine.

Could this be evidence of a visitation by the Virgin Mary?

Or might it have a different, otherworldly explanation?

In addition to the tilma inexplicably enduring for

hundreds of years, those who have studied it have found other

unexplainable qualities.

Most bizarre of all are the eyes of the image.

Approximately seven to eight millimeters wide, what we see

inside those eyes is a highly enigmatic mystery, because it

appears that there are characters in the eyes, the

faces of the people who were there at the time that the tilma

was unveiled by Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1531.

But if Our Lady of Guadalupe really does have

otherworldly origins, did it come from a heavenly realm

or somewhere else?

Not only do ancient astronaut theorists believe Juan Diego's

vision was an extraterrestrial encounter, but even some members

of the church claim that it was

something other than a religious experience.

Our Lady of Guadalupe is definitely a heavenly visitor.

In my opinion, though, what her

story said disagrees with what the Bible says.

In fact, she said she would protect the people that worship

at the church.

What that does is really deify Mary when the Bible is very

clear that only God can protect those that serve him.

And so any otherworldly being that demands worship or respect,

it cannot be an angel from God.

Juan Diego may have witnessed not just an apparition

but an actual live extraterrestrial appearing

through some sort of advanced technology whose mission was to

impart spiritual faith and a thirst for the divine.

Could it be that some of history's most

significant religious visions have actually been produced by

alien beings carrying out a secret mission?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and believe further proof

that extraterrestrials have been guiding our future can be found

in the story of a mysterious magician that may have helped

propel humanity into the modern age.

The English Channel.

1588.

King Philip II of Spain has dispatched an enormous armada of ships to invade England.

They are reportedly filled with more than 20,000 soldiers and

scores of medieval torture devices.

According to some historians,

Philip, a devout Catholic, wants to bring the brutal Spanish

Inquisition to England to punish Queen Elizabeth I and her

subjects for leaving the Catholic Church.

Philip was a Catholic, and England had been

turned Protestant by Elizabeth's father, Henry VII, when he broke

with the Catholic Church in

order to marry Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn.

So, to Philip, the English were sinners and their ways needed to be reformed.

So he sent a great armada, a great fleet of over 130 ships.

There had never been anything like it before.

England didn't have a lot of money, and a lot of their

vessels were not even official government vessels.

They were whatever merchant seamen and sailors could cobble together.

The Spanish Armada

seemed invincible and the British severely overmatched.

But when the two forces finally met, superior English tactics

and strategy forced the armada to retreat.

But the number of Spanish ships was so overwhelming that the

English couldn't score a

decisive victory until a freak storm struck.

The English ships were more maneuverable than the Spanish ships.

In order to counter this, the Spanish cut their anchors.

They figured, "Well, let's get rid of some of this dead weight, so to speak."

But when the winds hit, they had no way to find a mooring, and

then therefore the winds blew their ships all over the place,

including into the coast.

They lost roughly half of their fleet due to the weather.

From the point of view of the English people, this

extraordinary storm that destroys the Spanish Armada is a

miracle, destroying the might of Spain when mankind cannot do it.

The English believed this miraculous storm

was the work of God, but some ancient astronaut theorists

claim there is evidence that suggests it may have actually

been the work of otherworldly beings.

Their first clue comes from one of Queen Elizabeth's closest

advisors, a mysterious man named John Dee.

John Dee was the court astrologer, mathematician,

philosopher, medical doctor at the court of Queen Elizabeth I.

He was an extraordinarily learned man for his time.

He dealt with magic and potions and what we might

call spells to try to effect change.

John Dee was a Hermetic thinker.

Hermetic thinkers believed that there was a contemporary of

Moses by the name of Hermes Trismegistus who lived in Egypt.

And, just as God revealed the

Ten Commandments to Moses, God revealed to Hermes the secret

knowledge of how nature worked and that with the proper

mind-set and proper tools that one could uncover essentially

what God was thinking by reading the world.

According to legend, John Dee used this

knowledge of the natural and supernatural worlds to predict

the storm that would ultimately thwart the Spanish Armada.

The story goes that John Dee told Queen Elizabeth

not to worry because a storm would destroy the Spanish fleet.

And then, when it happened, it confirmed his knowledge of the

world and what lay beneath it.

But if John Dee really did make such a prophecy, what was the source?

Was it something divine?

Or is it possible, as ancient astronaut theorists contend,

that this mysterious man was using Hermetic wisdom to

establish communication with extraterrestrial beings?

John Dee was very interested in the occult

and seemed to spend a lot of time harnessing or finding a way

to communicate to life-forms beyond this Earth.

We really don't understand the influence over John Dee as to

how he was able to interpret such accurate information.

It's very possible that John Dee was receiving his information

from an outside source that was possibly an extraterrestrial.

But if John Dee's pursuit of Hermetic wisdom gave

him insights into the alien agenda on Earth, what did he find?

And why would extraterrestrials want to sink the Spanish Armada?

It is possible these extraterrestrials had a vested

interest in preserving the monarchy of Queen Elizabeth, in

seeing that the monarchy was not overthrown, and they repelled

any such invading forces in order to make sure that this

carefully constructed power structure was kept fully intact.

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

extraterrestrials were not acting to favor Protestants over

Catholics but may have wanted to preserve the great cultural and

scientific developments that would occur in England in the coming centuries.

What happened in England after Queen Elizabeth's

time was nothing less than miraculous.

We had the Scientific Revolution.

We had people like Isaac Newton.

And we had other great scientists develop what

eventually became the Industrial Revolution steam trains,

electricity and the modern world.

The period that followed also gave rise to

champions of the scientific method, like Francis Bacon and

John Locke, and led to an age of exploration that would give rise

to a greater investment in the still fledgling new land of America.

If the Spanish had succeeded in conquering England,

they would have brought the

Inquisition with them in a period of darkness and torture.

And, likely, the Industrial Revolution never would have happened.

Might some otherworldly entity really have

intervened in the Spanish invasion, sending a storm to

destroy their ships and ensure the future of England?

And, if so, is this a sign that

aliens really do have an interest in our future?

Perhaps the answer can be found by examining the vision that

inspired one of the world's newest religions.

Manchester, New York.

September 21, 1823.

As he settles into bed, a 17-year-old farmhand named

Joseph Smith begins to say his prayers.

Suddenly, without warning, an overpowering light envelops his

room, and a robed figure appears.

According to Smith's account,

"Not only was his robe exceedingly white, but his whole

person was glorious beyond description."

Speaking from the center of the light, the angel, whose name is

Moroni, sends Smith on a quest

for several sacred texts hidden near a local tree.

Upon locating the tree, Joseph dug and indeed

found the texts, but they recorded a language which he

could not read.

A second visitation from Moroni told Joseph Smith where he could

find what we might call a device of some kind that would allow

him to read the texts.

Joseph Smith was given this translating stone,

the Urim and Dethumium, with which he was able to not only

write down this text, but also to be able to translate it.

He then translated

the texts into English, which become The Book of Mormon.

And it depicts, among other things, that after Jesus

ascended into heaven, he came to the Americas and ministered to

the native peoples here, to convert them to his way of life,

and that at some point the texts that become The Book of

Mormon are deposited here, so that Joseph Smith could find them.

Seven years later,

Smith publishes these texts as part of The Book of Mormon,

establishing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a

denomination with more than 15 million followers today.

Many religions worldwide have been founded with the help of angels.

Whether they're representatives of Christian, Muslim, or

Buddhist gods, these apparitions

are thought to be a way the gods intervene on Earth with humans.

Angels, when they appear in religious legends and

in myths, generally are messengers between the heavenly

realm and the human realm.

Throughout the Bible, we have stories of angels

and demons appearing to mankind.

In fact, Paul says that, "You be careful how you entertain

strangers because some of you entertain angels unaware."

The Bible is very clear that angels can take on human form

and appear in the likeness of man.

But ancient astronaut theorists suggest that

sometimes these heavenly visions and apparitions may not actually

be angels sent by an omniscient god.

And curiously, the so-called angel that led Joseph Smith to

the sacred texts that would become The Book of Mormon did

not profess to have heavenly

origins, but claimed to be from another part of the universe.

Now, Moroni did not say that he was an angel.

He said that at one time he had lived on Earth, but that now he

came from the Pleiades star cluster.

And he said there were many others like him.

When we look at the background of The Book of

Mormon, we see some very interesting parallels to what

could be an extraterrestrial tale.

This angel, Moroni, that appears

to Joseph Smith seems to be more than just chance.

It's very possible that Joseph Smith was interacting with a

type of extraterrestrial.

These extraterrestrials may be giving these messages to world leaders

and to prophets and seers and mystics to let us know that we

are the product of an extraterrestrial interbreeding,

and an ongoing contact with

these other people who were not born on Earth.

And we have lost touch with that history only because we refuse

to believe the truth that is recorded in our historical books

and see what's right in front of our faces, even now with the

encounters that are happening in the modern world.

But if an extraterrestrial being really

did inspire Joseph Smith to found the Mormon church, why?

Joseph Smith's encounter

ultimately led the Mormons to migrate west to establish a new

holy land in Utah, which has led some to speculate that aliens,

once again, were guiding the course of humanity.

Moroni let Joseph Smith know that he would be the

prophet, and he would lead his people to the new Jerusalem.

Mormonism is another example, potentially, of an

extraterrestrial influence steering the course of our

humanity, and helping steer the

outcome of historical events here on Earth.

Is it possible that Joseph Smith, the founder of the

Mormon religion, was guided by an extraterrestrial being?

And if so, was this alien encounter another attempt to

guide us into a more enlightened age?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and believe further

evidence can be found by examining a dream that helped

defeat one of the 20th century's most diabolical dictators.

Olympia, Greece.

This valley on the Peloponnesus Peninsula, once filled with

temples, altars and statues, is where the ancient Greeks came to

pay tribute to their gods.

Near the temple to Zeus, the king of the gods, was a

sanctuary dedicated to the Moirai, the only beings that

Zeus was said to fear.

These mythical figures were believed to control destiny.

English speakers call them "The Fates."

In ancient times, fate and human destiny were

thought to be in the hands of the gods.

There was much less this idea

that we're in charge of our own destiny and that we make our own

lives through choices and decisions and action.

The idea was that human destiny was in someone else's hands.

It was in the hands of the fates.

There were three supernatural creatures.

Clotho, who spun the thread of life; Lachesis, who wove it; and

Atropos, who cut the thread at the moment of death.

In the ancient times, gods and goddesses were thought to be

able to influence people's destiny, and that they were

constantly interfering in human affairs.

They were constantly messing with humans.

They could make humans do all kinds of things.

They could disguise themselves. They could trick humans.

They could persuade humans.

And yet, that final moment of destiny was still in the hands of the Fates.

Other ancient cultures had similar beliefs.

The Egyptians personified fate

as the god Shai who was said to control the actions of humans,

while the Vedic texts of ancient India talked about a universal

order called Rta.

There was a similar legend in ancient Mesopotamia.

And it was of the Mamitu, who was a goat-headed goddess who

lived with the Anunnaki in the realms of the sky.

The Mamitu was also in charge of our fate.

So you have to wonder was the Mamitu and these other gods of

fate some kind of extraterrestrials that were controlling our lives?

Is it possible, as some ancient astronaut theorists

suggest, that the gods who were said to control our fate were

actually members of an advanced alien civilization?

And if so, how were they able to

interfere in people's lives undetected?

Some ancient astronaut theorists suggest that extraterrestrials

not only communicate with us through visions and physical

encounters, but even through our dreams.

New York City.

Spring, 1940.

A young Bell Laboratory engineer by the name of David Parkinson

is using a device called a potentiometer to track the

varying electrical voltages that course through a telephone when

people use it.

Parkinson's work with potentiometers seems unimportant

compared to the big news of the day.

Nazis have begun their shattering blitz on Britain.

The Nazis have conquered most of Europe,

forcing the Allies to flee the continent in a ragtag flotilla

of civilian boats after the Battle of Dunkirk.

The Nazis were almost undefeatable at this time

in the war, and there was a tremendous despair and fear

amongst the Allied forces.

And the story goes that David Parkinson had a dream one night,

and in the dream he was standing beside a certain type of gun.

And that gun was hitting every Nazi plane with absolute accuracy.

Parkinson's dream gave him a brilliant idea.

He could use the same technology that tracked electrical charges

flowing through a telephone to

track enemy airplanes flying through the sky.

And in the dream, he was able to see the technology

that was created to make this gun so accurate.

And it is said that when he awoke, he went back to the labs

and he ultimately created the technology that was necessary to

shoot down Nazi aircraft.

Parkinson's dream inspired him to create the M-9

electrical gun director, which allowed Allied anti-aircraft

guns to hit moving targets like the dangerous V-1 rocket with

incredible accuracy.

But how could such an advanced

weapon be completely realized in a single dream?

The weird part about it is this guy was a

scientist, but he knew nothing about aeronautics.

Because David Parkinson had no background in aerodynamics, his

contemraries, other scientists, and the military

were literally taking him not seriously at all.

But he insisted and he even spent a lot of his own time

creating prototypes, which eventually were found to work.

Throughout human history, there are amazing

stories of how mankind has been inspired through their dreams

and through their visions.

I think we have to ask ourselves what is the source of this inspiration?

Where do these dreams and visions come from?

Is it possible that we are being

communicated with by otherworldly beings?

Could extraterrestrials really be

using dreams to convey ideas and information to the human race?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and claim the proof that

dream manipulation is a real

possibility can be found in the human brain.

Throughout history, many of mankind's greatest

thinkers have been inspired by their dreams.

Scientist James Watson claimed the double helix structure of

DNA came to him through his dream of a spiral staircase.

Friedrich August Kekulé discovered the chemical

structure of benzene when he had

a dream of a group of snakes swallowing their tails.

Srinivasa Ramanujan, whose mathematic principles are still

being used by quantum physicists

today, said that he obtained these mathematic theorems in

dreams implanted in his mind by the Hindu goddess Namagiri.

We are seeing an ongoing pattern of dreams being

used to communicate information.

This is a widespread phenomenon.

It's been going on for many thousands of years.

And it continues right straight through to the present day.

Is it really possible that extraterrestrial

beings could actually manipulate our dreams?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes; and as evidence, they

point out that modern science is already starting to understand

how to interpret and manipulate dreams.

Moran Cerf is a neuroscientist who studies human brainwaves.

In one of his experiments, he shows pictures to test subjects

while they're awake and analyzes how their brains process the images.

So each of those little squares here corresponds

to a cell in Matt's brain.

So, right now, Matt has 128 electrodes in his brain.

They come from all various parts of his brain-- right, left and so on.

All of those wires going to this computer.

What we see here are the activities of those little cells in his brain.

So, if I pick cell number 36, and I double click on that,

what you see here is the activity inside his brain.

This is like a microphone sitting next to one cell in his brain.

Dr. Cerf can determine which cell stores the

memory of a particular picture,

like movie star Cary Grant, by analyzing which cell reacted

when he showed it to his test subject.

Once he's figured this out for dozens of cells, Dr. Cerf waits

for his patients to go to sleep and then watches for signs that

they're dreaming about the images he has shown them.

In a very basic way, he can see his patients' dreams.

But in the future, Dr. Cerf may actually be able to dictate our

dreams by stimulating the set of cells that store our memories

about a person or event.

If I really map the entire sequence, if I know all

the, say, one million cells that encode Cary Grant in your brain

and know exactly what they are, and I activate all of them, I

stimulate all of them, then, we believe, you are going to

actually see Cary Grant.

If aliens really have been coming to Earth for

thousands of years, could they

be using similar technology to manipulate our dreams?

Is it possible that the extraterrestrials don't

want to directly interfere in our society but to guide us from

behind the scenes?

And even though they have to push us along in certain

directions, we need to have the feeling that we're doing it,

even if it does include some extraterrestrial guidance.

They continue to communicate with humans through

dreams and visions and other methods of indirect

communication in order for them to provide guidance, but also to

provide this guidance in a hands-off way.

Is it possible that they withdrew from our reality

because we had to modernize?

It could be that the purpose of this was to give us the

opportunity to follow them without being pushed.

And if they forced it upon us,

we would simply worship them as gods and we would have learned nothing.

But by doing it ourselves, we form our own path.

We actually make our own ascension experience.

And we become much more like them in the process.

Has life on Earth been influenced by alien

encounters for thousands of years?

Are divine visions, prophetic dreams,

and modern-day UFO sightings all signs that we are being

manipulated by a more advanced race of beings?

Could it be that these encounters are not meant for

them to get to know us, but for us to get to know them?

And if so, what are they guiding us towards?

Perhaps we are getting closer to our ultimate destination, and

when we reach it, we will once again be reunited with our alien ancestors.
