NARRATOR: Bizarre shapes...

LINDA MOULTON HOWE:
What in the world

is making these patterns
and why?

NARRATOR:
...intricate designs...

DAVID WILCOCK:
Scientists are now saying

that this geometry

is the secret keys
to the higher dimensions.

NARRATOR:
...and a mysterious method

that defies explanation.

NICK POPE: Everyone was
scratching their heads

and saying,
"What's going on here?"

NARRATOR: Are the patterns

appearing on fields
across the globe

part of an elaborate hoax?

Or could there really be
an otherworldly connection?

GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: These are
messages from elsewhere.

And elsewhere, in my opinion,

means
of extraterrestrial origin.

NARRATOR:
Since the dawn of civilization,

mankind has credited
its origins to gods

and other visitors
from the stars.

What if it were true?

Did extraterrestrial beings

really help
to shape our history?

And if so...

could they really
be communicating

using circles from the sky?

Turin, Italy.

June 23, 2015.

Pilot Silvio Sirotto reports

that while flying
over a wheat field

directly in the flight path
of the local airport,

he spotted a mysterious design

seemingly pressed
into the crops.

Investigators are baffled

as to how the design
could have been created

without any detection
in such a high-traffic area.

To date, it remains a mystery,

but it is only one
of the latest examples

in a strange phenomenon

that has been going on
for decades,

and possibly much, much longer.

Over 10,000 crop formations
have been found worldwide.

They have been reported
in over 50 different countries

and on nearly
every continent on Earth.

Commonly known as crop circles,

the formations are designs
pressed down into fields.

They range from small circles

to elaborate pictograms
hundreds of feet across.

They have been found
in various crops,

including wheat, barley,

oilseed rape and corn.

And they've been making
worldwide headlines

since the mid-1960s.

One of the first, in 1966,

it was Tully,
Queensland, Australia.

(buzzing)

A farmer heard a buzzing sound

and literally saw
this big, round,

maybe 30-feet-diameter
craft, disk, rising up

out of what essentially
was marshy, reedy ground.

And it goes up and disappears,

and left behind the circle.

CHARLES MALLETT:
Beginning in Tully, Australia,

there seems to be
a kind of a smattering

of these circular impressions,
relatively simple,

but in several locations
around the world.

1960s, '70s, '80s,
liberal sprinkling of circles,

1990... bang,

and the whole thing
goes planet-wide.

NARRATOR: By 1991,

over 2,500 formations
had been reported

across 23 different countries.

HOWE:
As an investigative reporter

who began
about three decades ago,

trying to get to the bottom
of this phenomena,

I remember getting
these photographs

and reading that there were
no footprints.

No one was walking around,
because if they had,

we would have seen
broken stalks.

Everybody was raising
this question:

"What in the world is making
these patterns and why?"

They had scientists and
meteorologists in the field,

and it was really fascinating

and people really got into it
in a big, big way.

POPE: Nobody knew
what to make of this.

Politicians, scientists,
the UFO community...

Everyone was scratching
their heads

and saying, "What's going
on here? What is this?"

Some people thought
that it was extraterrestrial.

Others thought it was
a meteorological phenomenon

of some sort.

And other people said,
"Well, it must be a hoax."

NARRATOR: On September 9, 1991,

two retirees
from the English countryside,

Doug Bower and Dave Chorley,
came forward with an admission

that they were behind
the crop formations.

Using nothing more
than a board and strings,

the hoaxers
demonstrated their technique

for pressing down the crop
to form a design.

HOWE: I won't forget
when the news came

that there were these two men

saying they were responsible
for all the crop formations.

And immediately,

because of all the work
that I had been doing was,

well, they weren't traveling
to 23 nations,

number one.

Number two,
they were off-kilter.

They were not geometric.

And for those of us who have
been in real crop formations,

there's just no comparison.

MALLETT: Doug and Dave,
"the men that conned the world."

That was the headline
in our local newspaper here.

And these two men came forward
and said, "We done it all."

We made all the crop circles
since 1976, everything."

Most people pretty much
swallowed that,

hook, line and sinker.

POPE: There are some theories

that, uh, Doug and Dave
were just government stooges,

that, uh, the plan

was to bring the whole subject
into disrepute,

to discredit it,

and to-to make the media
just go away.

NARRATOR: But could it be

that there is more
to the crop circle phenomenon

than a modern-day hoax
orchestrated by pranksters?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes, and suggest

that crop formations
are not, in fact,

a modern phenomenon at all,

but can be traced back
hundreds of years.

JONATHAN YOUNG: There is
a report from the year 815,

of the Bishop of Lyon,

a warning,
notifying another priest

who was going
to take over his parish

that the locals
are involved in something

he considers devil worship.

They're gathering seeds

in a flattened circle
of the crops

and using them
in fertility rituals.

WILCOCK: There are some very
strange accounts in the 1600s.

One of the original scientists,
Dr. Robert Plot,

reported seeing crop circles
appearing on his land

in Staffordshire, England.

And he actually drew diagrams
of what he was seeing.

We also have the infamous
legend, in the 1600s,

of the so-called "mowing-devil."

TSOUKALOS: One of the first
crop circles ever reported

was a mowing-devil
that was in England

going through the wheat fields.

There's actually a woodcut
that shows what,

for all intents and purposes,
looks like a crop circle,

but has this black creature

that just runs around
with the horns.

So the idea was, in folklore,

that something or someone
laid down this formation

in a wheat field.

And that goes back
all the way to 1678.

Some even have suggested
that there may be a description

of a crop circle
in the Dead Sea Scrolls.

WILLIAM HENRY:
In the Dead Sea Scrolls

is a cryptic reference
to a light

that leaves a mark
on the ground.

Interpreters ask: Is it possible
that the marks on the land...

Specifically on the barley
and the lentil...

Are crop circles?

NARRATOR: Is it possible
that crop circles

have appeared for hundreds,
if not thousands of years?

And if so, could it be that
while some of these formations

have been exposed as hoaxes,

many others are connected
to otherworldly beings?

Perhaps further clues
can be found

by putting a man-made
crop formation to the test.

NARRATOR: Wiltshire, England.

This sleepy countryside,

just over 100 miles
west of London,

is considered ground zero
for the crop circle phenomenon.

It is also home to
many mysterious ancient sites,

including Stonehenge,

Avebury,

Silbury Hill

and West Kennet Long Barrow.

MALLET:
One could quite reasonably

and easy make the connection
that these crop circles

are happening in these places

because these places
are markings

of certain energetic corridors

or crossover points
or very special places

that were used by people

in the past for presumably
metaphysical reasons...

Meditating, praying,
ritual, whatever.

NARRATOR: Today, ancient
astronaut theorist and explorer.

Giorgio Tsoukalos

is in Wiltshire
to meet up with three men

who have a unique perspective
on crop formations.

- Hi.
- Giorgio.

John? Good to meet you.

NARRATOR:
John Lundberg, Rob Irving

and William Russell have
over two decades of experience

creating artistic designs
in crops.

So, thanks very much
for meeting me out here.

NARRATOR: Giorgio will
challenge them to recreate

a simple formation that many
crop circle investigators

suggest cannot be
perfectly reproduced.

In 2005, overnight,

the Golden Ball formation
was created.

This is what it looks
like right here.

You might be familiar
with this one.

Got the different circles.

JOHN LUNDBERG: How big is it?

- 96 feet in diameter.
- Okay.

So it's not small,
it's fairly large, and, um,

I was wondering
if you could recreate this.

- We can certainly try, yeah.
- Right?

Now, this was done overnight,

so the most you'll have

- is about five to seven hours.
- Okay.

And you'll be using
these boards?

Yeah, this is called
a stalk stomper,

which is the tool that we use
for flattening the crop.

All right, well,
shall we get started?

- Sure.
- Okay. Let's do it.

Well, you're starting
on the ring.

NARRATOR:
John Lundberg and his team

begin by measuring out
the design using a tape measure.

This one, here.

NARRATOR: After determining
where to place the edges,

they use their wooden stalk
stompers to shuffle their way

across the upright stems
to create the desired pattern.

Keep going.

NARRATOR: The team is able
to complete the challenge

within the allotted time.

Well, that was quick.

Pretty good, huh?

Really good stuff.

- All right.
- Thanks.

So, did you guys encounter
any problems or any challenges?

I think the only problem

is-is the crop is a bit
kind of tangly.

But I-I'm happy with it.

I think it should look great
from the air.

Some more altitude.

Keep going. Going up, going up.

NARRATOR: In order to get

a side-by-side comparison
of the designs,

Giorgio enlists the assistance
of a local drone team.

They send a camera up
over the field.

MAN: Climb a bit.

And hold there.

Oh, wow.

I mean, it's
a really nice recreation.

There's no question about it.

- Pretty identical.
- Yeah.

Can't tell
the difference really.

They're really impressive.

NARRATOR: While the recreation

of the Golden Ball Hill
formation

looks very similar
to the original from the air,

crop circle researchers suggest

that what made the formation
truly unique

was not how it appeared
from above,

but how it appeared
on the ground.

So to examine
the recreation up close,

Giorgio meets up
with crop circle investigator

Charles Mallet.

Hi, Charles.

- Hey, Giorgio.
- Pleasure to meet you.

- How are you?
- I'm okay.

You're good?
Come to the center here.

NARRATOR:
Mallet has been researching

the crop circle phenomenon
since the 1990s,

and was one of the first
investigators on the ground

of the Golden Ball Hill pattern
when it appeared in 2005.

What are the telltale signs

that leads you to believe
that something

is real or man-made,
or real, whatever that means.

I think we have
to get over the-the notion

that people can't
make shapes in fields.

People can make really
impressive shapes in fields.

So we have to get down there and
look at the physical evidence

before we start
taking it further.

When I stand in this formation,
I look at the carpet of flowers

across the top of these plants,
and then I look on the ground.

I see two separate situations...
Undamaged and damaged,

because they used
a physical device,

and it's men stepping
with planks of wood.

So it's crush,
crush, crush, crush.

And it produces a really
clear pattern of damage.

So there's a lot of the flowers
have just been wiped off.

- And then if we were able to...
- Sure.

To maybe come and look
right down into the detail.

We need to just look at
some, uh, stems here.

Here's a good example
of what happens

to oilseed rape plants

when they're physically
pushed to the ground.

Huge, ugly kink,
very mechanical.

Down here, there's bruising
and scraping down the stems.

What you're suggesting
or what you're telling me

is that in a non-man-made,
uh, scenario,

the stalks would not be
broken like this.

Absolutely.

Can you show me
some of those pictures

that you brought
to see the comparison?

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Great.

These are from taken
from the original

2005 formation here.

This is what I would expect
to see in a real crop circle.

NARRATOR: Incredibly,
none of the flower heads

on the original
2005 Golden Ball Hill formation

were damaged or destroyed.

And the seamless
lay of flowers suggests

that it was not mechanically
produced using boards

and shuffling over the stalks.

In the original 2005 formation,

there's nothing physical,
nothing local,

nothing mechanical
made this circle.

That really opens the door
to so many possibilities.

And the honest answer is:

We do not know where these
circles are coming from,

the real ones.

NARRATOR: If the
Golden Ball Hill formation

was not made with boards,
then how was it created?

And by whom?

Perhaps further clues
can be found

by examining
the intriguing evidence

left behind at the scene.

NARRATOR: Ann Arbor, Michigan.

At the height of the crop circle
phenomenon in the 1990s,

former University of Michigan
research physicist.

W.C. Levengood and his team
at BLT Research

began scientifically
analyzing samples

from various crop formations
found throughout the world.

ELTJO H. HASELHOFF: The BLT team
performed many different tests,

from simple inspection
under a microscope,

chemical analyses of the soils
and the plants,

germination tests, uh, node
length measurements and so on.

They produced, uh,
many, many lab reports

and a couple
scientific papers as well

in which they explained
what they found.

We found that there are
two scientifically-documented,

all-over-the-world changes.

The first is
the apical node elongation.

Most crops have four
or even five nodes,

and they are the knuckle-like
protuberances

that are found
along the plant stem

all the way down to the ground.

The apical node

is the very first node
beneath the seed head,

and that node becomes
elongated, stretched,

as compared to the control nodes
in the rest of the field.

Now, the node elongation can be

a range actually
between, say, 45%

and over 200% elongation.

The second visible plant change
that is well tested

are the expulsion cavities,

holes blown out
at the lower stem nodes,

usually the second but sometimes
also the third and fourth nodes.

And literally, they're holes
blown out at the nodes.

Best I can tell,

these visible changes
are beyond the capability

of humans at this point in time.

This is indicative
of some kind of intense heat

that has hit the stalk

and actually physically
changed it.

Who or what
would have done this?

NARRATOR:
Could the physical anomalies

found within some crop circles

be evidence
that they were created

with advanced technology?

And, if so, what might
this technology be?

Pleasure to meet you.

NARRATOR: In January of 2000,
using his own data

as well as data collected
by BLT Research,

Dr. Eltjo Haselhoff
published a scientific paper

suggesting that the formations
might be created

by an unknown electromagnetic
energy source.

So you've actually done
scientific analysis

on some of those formations.

So what were some of
your conclusions?

The hypothesis is that
somehow electromagnetic energy

is involved in the creation
of these crop circles,

and that somehow this energy
causes node elongation.

So the nodes in the stems
get longer.

And the more energy,
the longer the nodes are.

And that is very interesting,
because all you need to do

is take a cross section
across a circle, like this,

and measure the node length
in each of these positions.

And actually,
this is what you see.

This is in... at the perimeter.

See these nodes,
these dark areas?

This is somewhere halfway,
and that's in the center.

So, you see, there is a huge
difference in node length.

TSOUKALOS: I mean, it's a hu...

I mean, this is fascinating;
This is incredible.

HASELHOFF: And it's not
just a little bit. -Okay.

It's a difference in size
between a horse and an elephant.

It's-it's very,
very significant,

so you can actually make
a graph of this.

So this is the node length
at the edge,

when the node length is
about two millimeters.

So this is in the center
of the circle,

and the node length is,
like, 4.2 millimeters.

And going towards the perimeter,
that's about two millimeters.

You see, there is a massive
change in node length.

They're actually
more than twice as long.

Yeah, I mean, what, uh,
what would do this?

That's, uh, quite weird.

HASELHOFF: Well, in this case,
it was very interesting,

because this crop circle, uh,
actually had an eyewitness

when it was... when it formed.

And the eyewitness says,
"I saw a ball of light,

and it was standing still."

And that is very important,

because when a ball of light
is standing still,

we can very accurately predict

how the energy will be
distributed on the ground.

And we know that there will be
more energy in the center.

And the more energy,
the longer the nodes are.

And we can also predict what
the node length would have been.

So you can check
your hypothesis.

And in this case,
it was a perfect match.

Wow.

Amazing, isn't it?

Now, this is where I get
the goose bumps,

because clearly
there is something there,

and no one denies that
many of them are man-made,

but then there is
something bizarre.

Do you have any... idea

how, or who, might be behind it?

That's a very
difficult question.

What I can say about that is...

I don't know.

So it is something that remains
a giant question mark.

Absolutely, yes.

I find it very disheartening
in a weird way

that something as open
as crop formations

are not studied closer
by the scientific community,

that they are just
offhandedly dismissed

as flat-out hoaxes
from the get-go,

when there is concise
scientific evidence

that not every crop circle
is man-made.

Maybe the origin
is extraterrestrial.

NARRATOR:
Does this peer-reviewed

scientific research
provide evidence

that not all crop formations
are the product of hoaxers?

And, if so, could there be
an otherworldly,

perhaps extraterrestrial,
origin to them?

Perhaps further clues
can be found

by exploring eyewitness accounts
of the crop circle phenomenon.

NARRATOR: Salisbury, England.

July 7, 2007.

Local paralegal and crop circle
researcher Gary King

spends the night camping out
on Knap Hill,

an area known for sightings
of mysterious orbs

and other strange occurrences.

It was the seventh of July 2007,

so because it was
a kind of an auspicious date...

The seven-seven-seven...
We decided we'd come here.

I came here with my girlfriend
to do a night watch.

So we arrived here, and at
about 3:00 in the morning,

we had a big white
flash of light,

which completely
encompassed the sky.

And about 20 minutes
after that, we looked,

and we could see this crop
circle laid out in front of us.

The field it appeared in
was this field here

to the right that's yellow now.

It was actually wheat
the year that it occurred,

but they rotate the crops.

And it started from way back
at... near those trees

and then came over the brow
of this hill.

It was absolutely enormous.

NARRATOR: The crop formation
extended 1,033 feet long

and 490 feet wide.

The over two-acre design

contained
150 individual circles...

The largest, 164 feet across.

KING:
I have no idea what made it.

What I do know though is that

people with boards
didn't make this.

NARRATOR: Gary King's
experience is just one

of many firsthand accounts
of designs

that mysteriously appear
in a short period of time.

It is documented that there are
approximately 70 cases

of people having
an eyewitness sighting

of the formation
of a crop circle

where they are literally
standing there in the crop,

and it just spontaneously forms
in front of them.

There is a loud tweeting sound
in a lot of cases.

And then this sort of

crackling electrostatic
charge on the crops.

And then you just watch as

almost like an oriental fan
is unrolling,

just... (imitates whooshing)
the crops just fold down.

In a matter of three seconds,
it's all finished.

NARRATOR:
Crop circle researchers cite

that many of these
eyewitness accounts

include sightings
of strange lights

in and around a formation.

Milk Hill, Wiltshire, England.

1991.

Steve Alexander,
a local photographer,

is filming footage
of a crop formation

from a neighboring hill,

when he captures
a strange metallic light

floating in the field below.

MALLETT: His camera caught sight

of what seemed to be
a white orb of light

flying right across this field
right next to a crop circle.

That orb of light,
whatever it was,

flew directly over a tractor
working in the next field down.

And later on, that farmer
was contacted, and he said,

"I saw this weird orb of light

about the size of a melon or
something fly over my tractor."

I myself have seen several,

and they are astonishing
in their brightness.

We are dealing
with intelligent plasmas

that are sending
and receiving information

for another intelligence
of unknown origin.

Orbs of light are

a commonly associated phenomenon
with crop circles,

and this goes all the way
back to the story

of the mowing-devil in 1678.

The sighting of lights is often
associated with these phenomena,

and they do seem to suggest
something we don't understand.

The ghost lights,
the will-o'-the-wisp sightings

represented some force of nature
we had not entirely acknowledged

or given sufficient respect to,

some mystery that we need
to come to grips with.

WILCOCK:
It could be an actual craft,

or it could potentially be
something like the stylus

from an extraterrestrial hand
that is somewhere far away,

but this light is the projected
form of a technology

being used from the safety
and comfort of space.

We have to imagine an advanced
extraterrestrial race

sending out orbs of light

that are sort of like peepholes
for exploration.

They come to a planet,
they find something interesting,

the peephole opens
into a portal,

perhaps through which these
advanced visitors can pass,

or perhaps through which
a human could even enter

and travel to the home planet
of the orb.

Is this what a crop circle is?

To me, the proliferation
of wormhole-themed crop circles

tells us that this is
the method of communication

as well as travel
of these advanced visitors.

There is a possibility

that we are dealing with
time travelers.

The time travelers are using
the crop formations

to judge the accuracy
of their time travel.

So are the crop formations
designed for humans at all?

NARRATOR: Just what purpose
do crop circles serve?

Are they landing codes
for time travelers,

as some crop circle
investigators suggest?

Or is it possible

that they serve
as a communication medium?

One only meant
for us to discover

once we evolved enough
to discern them from the sky.

NARRATOR: Winchester, England.

August 15, 2002.

A crop formation
bearing the image

of what appears to be a Grey
alien emerges in a wheat field.

At the bottom right corner
of the image

is a disk-shaped object

containing what some believe
to be binary code,

a computer language
consisting of ones and zeros.

There was a crop formation

that unmistakably looks like
an extraterrestrial,

the proverbial Grey
with the almond eyes

and the triangular-shaped head.

There's also at the bottom,

there seems to be
a computer disk

and what looked like
binary code.

The message allegedly says,

"Beware the bearers of false
gifts and their broken promises.

"Much pain, but still time.

"There is good out there.

"We oppose deceivers.

Conduit closing."

It was warning humanity

about the deceivers,
about dangers.

NARRATOR: Just a year prior,
on August 21, 2001,

another formation that contained
binary code appeared

in a wheat field next to the
Chilbolton Radio Observatory.

Researchers are convinced
that the design was a response

to a message that was
transmitted into space

by astronomers Frank Drake
and Carl Sagan in 1974.

In November of 1974,

Carl Sagan and Drake
at Cornell University

sent out from
Arecibo, Puerto Rico,

a signal of binary code
about Earth

to whoever in the cosmos
would receive our signal.

NARRATOR:
The original message contained

binary-encoded information,

including the numbers
one through ten,

an image of our DNA strand,
the figure of a human,

and a graphic
of the solar system

with the position
of Earth highlighted.

It echoed absolutely,

line by line by line.

The DNA did not look like
double helix.

It was very bizarre.

And then when you got down,
instead of a six-foot human,

it was this thing that was
maybe a third the height

of the human in Carl Sagan,

and it was associated
with a strange solar system.

It was a very complex, very
strange, one-of-a-kind pattern.

We'd never seen
anything like it before.

NARRATOR:
In 2004, a mysterious rock

was found near
the Roswell crash site

bearing the same image
as a crop circle

that was discovered
in Chiseldon, England,

on August 2, 1996.

On the Roswell Rock, you have
an almost identical symbol

in England.

To me, it's very fascinating,
because it essentially shows

that they're trying
to somehow communicate with us.

So the idea is that perhaps
some of these crop circles

indeed are messages
from elsewhere.

And elsewhere, in my opinion,

means of
extraterrestrial origin.

NARRATOR: Could it be
that some crop formations

serve as a medium for
extraterrestrial communication?

Many crop circle researchers
say yes,

and suggest further evidence
of this can be found

by examining the advanced
astronomical, scientific,

and mathematical equations
contained within them.

One formation
had everyone baffled,

and people were saying,
"Well, what is this?"

Then a mathematician
had a look at it and said,

"Wait a minute,
that's a representation of pi.

And it's correct
down to ten decimal places."

It's a representation
of pi in a geometric sense.

It's kind of interesting because
the way you get pi out of it

is the lengths of the different
arcs in each segment.

And what happens is
there's these little notches

in the spiral that let you know
you're at the end of an arc.

So you actually have to measure
the arc lengths

as you go around,

and their lengths
give you the digits of pi.

And there's a little circle
to give you the decimal point.

So it's a really interesting
example of using geometry

as a code for representing
digits and numbers.

POPE: It just shows
the level of knowledge,

mathematical knowledge,
geometric skill

that goes into
making these things.

Many of the most famous
crop circles

actually derive
from fractal patterns.

The Mandelbrot set,

the Julia set.

To make these, you have
to have knowledge of math.

Mathematics is, of course,
the universal language.

If we ever encounter aliens,

they're not gonna speak
English or French or German.

We'll speak
and we'll communicate

via mathematics.

Could crop circles...
As some believe...

Be an attempt
from an alien civilization

to reach out
and communicate with us?

WILCOCK: There's a consistent
amount of sacred geometry...

Tetrahedrons, cubes,
octahedrons,

and even more complex
geometric patterns.

Many of our best and top
scientists are now saying

that this geometry
is the secret keys

to the higher dimensions.

And it's right there
in the crops,

as if they're giving us
a trail of bread crumbs,

showing us how to get
to the next level as a planet.

NARRATOR: Might crop formations
that contain celestial patterns

and mathematical equations

really have been created
by otherworldly beings

attempting to communicate
with humans?

And if extraterrestrial forces
are sending messages to mankind,

why aren't world governments
more interested?

Some insiders say they are,

and suggest that they are
not only interested,

but may even be
directly involved.

NARRATOR: Avebury, England.

July 2006.

The shadow
of a geometric pattern

appears in a field.

The design
echoes a crop formation

that was created
in the exact same location

12 months prior.

Crop circle researchers
refer to this phenomenon

as a "ghost formation."

The ghost formations
are a really curious aside

to the main crop circle
phenomenon.

The following year or even later
in the same year,

there's an impression
left in the field.

Even though the original
crop circle has been harvested

or cut down in whatever way,

there's a residual effect
on the ground.

That, to some people,
seems utterly mysterious.

NARRATOR: The altered growth
pattern of the affected crops

has been known to persist

for up to two years after
the initial crop circle appears,

but only on certain formations.

CHILDRESS: A number
of crop circles reappear again.

It seems that it's some effort
to communicate with us,

from extraterrestrials,
by putting these designs

onto the ground
over and over again.

And perhaps
what they're trying to do

is give us information
that they think we need,

but we just need to decipher it.

NARRATOR: Could there really be
a message so important

that the residual design
persists in the crops

for months and even years?

If so, wouldn't
the crop circle phenomenon

be more closely monitored
by world governments?

Some crop circle investigators
say yes and suggest

that the U.S. and British
governments currently utilize

satellite technology
to secretly photograph

and catalog crop formations.

But others suggest
their involvement

may actually run much deeper.

Just as it was British
government policy to downplay

the true interest in UFOs,

so it was the case
with crop circles.

If there's
an alien message there,

of course government
would want that knowledge

and they'd want to keep it
for themselves.

The intriguing thing there is,
of course,

that some of the formations
that people are seeing

might actually be made
by the government.

Government scientists
would be making the reply

that goes out from us
to the extraterrestrials.

HOWE: Whether crop formations
are the residue

of intelligent plasmas

or extraterrestrials
or a combination of both,

why can't the whole world know

what it is that the governments

know about crop formations
and lights?

What would happen
if the whole planet knew,

if all humans knew
we're not alone?

NARRATOR: Is it possible
that world governments

are secretly working
to uncover messages

encrypted within crop circles,

and are even attempting

to communicate
with otherworldly entities

by creating crop circles
themselves?

And if these formations

really are messages
from extraterrestrials,

just what are they
trying to communicate?

HOWE: Something keeps
laying things down

in sequence as if it has

a big picture of how it is
communicating with this planet,

but it is doing so in pieces.

If you looked at the math
and you looked at the warnings,

something champions us,
wants us to evolve.

TSOUKALOS: I think that the crop
formations are a calling card

that we are being given,

that is being put
underneath our very eyes.

And we really should pay
attention to those messages.

Those are little hints
that are dropped worldwide

that prepare us to change
our point of view

that we're not the only ones.

NARRATOR: Have extraterrestrials
been using crop circles

to communicate with mankind
throughout our history?

Are these complex designs
pieces of a mathematical puzzle

that, once put together
and deciphered,

will reveal the truth
about both our origins

and our destiny?

Perhaps we will unlock
the secrets of the universe

not by venturing out
deeper into space,

but by understanding
the messages

that are being given to us
right here on Earth.
