1
00:00:00,828 --> 00:00:02,917
Mysterious ancient stones

2
00:00:03,083 --> 00:00:05,667
shaped into perfect spheres.

3
00:00:05,875 --> 00:00:09,500
From Kansas to
Kazakhstan, we find these stone spheres.

4
00:00:09,708 --> 00:00:11,792
Some of them are massive,

5
00:00:11,958 --> 00:00:15,167
and they bring with them
this incredible mystery.

6
00:00:15,375 --> 00:00:19,250
Many show clear
evidence of being man-made.

7
00:00:19,375 --> 00:00:22,167
Some
have carvings on, like spirals,

8
00:00:22,375 --> 00:00:26,417
and they look like they're
created in a machine.

9
00:00:26,542 --> 00:00:30,042
And some of
them completely defy explanation.

10
00:00:30,208 --> 00:00:33,750
The sphere was made
of elements that shouldn't

11
00:00:33,917 --> 00:00:35,625
be there naturally.

12
00:00:35,792 --> 00:00:38,167
Why is it
that these strange artifacts

13
00:00:38,333 --> 00:00:41,125
are found in all
corners of the globe?

14
00:00:41,292 --> 00:00:45,500
And might there be an
otherworldly explanation?

15
00:00:45,708 --> 00:00:49,208
Is it possible
that there is a connection between

16
00:00:49,375 --> 00:00:52,125
those spheres and
the extraterrestrials

17
00:00:52,292 --> 00:00:54,792
who visited us
thousands of years ago?

18
00:00:57,667 --> 00:01:01,542
There is a
doorway in the universe.

19
00:01:02,333 --> 00:01:05,708
Beyond it is the
promise of truth.

20
00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:09,083
It demands we
question everything

21
00:01:09,292 --> 00:01:11,667
we have ever been taught.

22
00:01:11,792 --> 00:01:15,292
The evidence is all around us.

23
00:01:15,458 --> 00:01:19,375
The future is right
before our eyes.

24
00:01:19,542 --> 00:01:21,875
We are not alone.

25
00:01:22,083 --> 00:01:25,167
We have never been alone.

26
00:01:33,250 --> 00:01:37,625
Across the ancient world are
mysterious monolithic monuments

27
00:01:37,792 --> 00:01:39,417
carved of solid stone,

28
00:01:39,583 --> 00:01:43,125
like the obelisks
of ancient Egypt,

29
00:01:43,292 --> 00:01:46,833
the Carnac alignments
in Northern France,

30
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,208
and the Moai statues
of Easter Island.

31
00:01:51,292 --> 00:01:52,542
What purpose they served

32
00:01:52,708 --> 00:01:55,667
has been the subject
of much speculation.

33
00:01:56,708 --> 00:02:00,000
But perhaps the most
mystifying monoliths of all

34
00:02:00,208 --> 00:02:03,333
are those that are in the
shape of perfect spheres.

35
00:02:05,292 --> 00:02:07,500
Stone spheres are
found all around the world,

36
00:02:07,625 --> 00:02:11,125
on every continent
except maybe Antarctica.

37
00:02:11,250 --> 00:02:16,083
But it's important to note
that geologists are still really

38
00:02:16,250 --> 00:02:19,375
very much in debate about
how geological spheres form.

39
00:02:19,542 --> 00:02:23,000
Some of
them are taller than a man.

40
00:02:23,208 --> 00:02:27,375
And many of them,
they're so perfectly shaped,

41
00:02:27,542 --> 00:02:30,792
they must have been
shaped by the hands of man.

42
00:02:31,917 --> 00:02:35,750
From Kansas to Kazakhstan,
we find these stone spheres.

43
00:02:35,917 --> 00:02:39,000
Some of them are massive,
and the key thing that links

44
00:02:39,208 --> 00:02:42,167
all of them is this
incredible mystery about

45
00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:44,500
how were they created,
why were they created?

46
00:02:44,708 --> 00:02:46,708
And ultimately,
what is their purpose?

47
00:02:47,833 --> 00:02:50,292
While ancient
stone spheres have been found

48
00:02:50,375 --> 00:02:52,375
that are of enormous
proportions,

49
00:02:52,542 --> 00:02:55,917
they exist in a
vast range of sizes,

50
00:02:56,083 --> 00:02:58,208
and geologists remain divided

51
00:02:58,375 --> 00:03:01,292
about just how they were formed.

52
00:03:01,458 --> 00:03:04,333
Some are clearly
natural formations,

53
00:03:04,458 --> 00:03:08,333
but experts agree that
many spheres show evidence

54
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:11,333
of having been
artificially shaped.

55
00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:14,958
The question is, what
purpose did they serve?

56
00:03:15,125 --> 00:03:17,000
I think that one of
the reasons they might

57
00:03:17,167 --> 00:03:18,545
have been constructing
these spheres is

58
00:03:18,625 --> 00:03:21,208
to mimic what
they see in nature.

59
00:03:22,208 --> 00:03:25,375
There's a geometrical
perfection that comes with the sphere.

60
00:03:25,542 --> 00:03:30,458
It might be, perhaps,
a connection to planets.

61
00:03:30,583 --> 00:03:33,500
Sun, the Moon, the stars.
All of these are spherical.

62
00:03:33,708 --> 00:03:36,708
And if you look deeper,
at the microscopic level,

63
00:03:36,875 --> 00:03:39,333
at the atomic level, you
have the same patterns

64
00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:42,333
of spheres as very
important building blocks.

65
00:03:42,542 --> 00:03:44,833
So, this fascination
with spheres

66
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,208
might be a reflection of this.

67
00:03:47,250 --> 00:03:49,667
What could
explain why ancient people

68
00:03:49,833 --> 00:03:53,292
all over the world fashioned
spheres out of stone?

69
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:57,958
Perhaps further clues can be
found by examining a discovery

70
00:03:58,125 --> 00:04:01,250
made deep in the
jungles of Central America

71
00:04:01,375 --> 00:04:04,875
that defies explanation.

72
00:04:07,250 --> 00:04:11,417
Southwest Costa Rica, 1939.

73
00:04:12,417 --> 00:04:15,292
Workers with the
United Fruit Company

74
00:04:15,417 --> 00:04:18,292
begin clearing the rainforest
near the Diquis Delta

75
00:04:18,417 --> 00:04:20,250
for a new banana plantation.

76
00:04:21,375 --> 00:04:23,708
While making their way
through the dense vegetation,

77
00:04:23,875 --> 00:04:28,000
the workmen find dozens
of giant stone spheres.

78
00:04:29,458 --> 00:04:33,042
They started to find these
massive stone spheres

79
00:04:33,208 --> 00:04:35,500
that they had no clue
why they were there.

80
00:04:36,667 --> 00:04:39,500
The instruction for them was, if
you find anything, just move it.

81
00:04:39,625 --> 00:04:41,333
And they just
started to move them.

82
00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:43,875
But they just kept appearing.

83
00:04:44,875 --> 00:04:49,708
In 1943, the
archeological journal American Antiquity

84
00:04:49,875 --> 00:04:52,458
published photos of
the mysterious spheres,

85
00:04:52,625 --> 00:04:54,125
which caught the attention

86
00:04:54,292 --> 00:04:57,875
of American archaeologist
Dr. Samuel Lothrop.

87
00:04:58,042 --> 00:05:02,667
Five years later, Dr. Lothrop
led an excavation of the area

88
00:05:02,833 --> 00:05:06,458
and discovered
hundreds of stone spheres.

89
00:05:06,667 --> 00:05:10,208
They range in size
from just a few inches

90
00:05:10,375 --> 00:05:12,000
to more than six
feet in diameter,

91
00:05:12,167 --> 00:05:14,667
and weigh up to 15 tons.

92
00:05:14,833 --> 00:05:18,583
Archeologists soon
discovered stone spheres

93
00:05:18,750 --> 00:05:22,958
throughout the Diquis Delta,
and on the nearby Isla del Ca�o.

94
00:05:24,125 --> 00:05:25,667
Many were found
with artifacts from

95
00:05:25,875 --> 00:05:28,500
the ancient Indigenous
Diquis culture,

96
00:05:28,708 --> 00:05:31,958
and are believed to be at
least a thousand years old.

97
00:05:33,250 --> 00:05:35,958
About 300 have been
discovered so far.

98
00:05:36,125 --> 00:05:39,042
Some of them are fairly
small, like the size of footballs.

99
00:05:39,208 --> 00:05:40,792
Others are huge,

100
00:05:40,917 --> 00:05:44,667
between eight and
nine feet tall and wide.

101
00:05:44,833 --> 00:05:48,083
Some have carvings
on, like spirals...

102
00:05:49,458 --> 00:05:52,375
and what looks
like boats or ships.

103
00:05:52,583 --> 00:05:55,750
They look like they're
created in a machine.

104
00:05:56,875 --> 00:06:00,333
Researchers believe the
stone that the spheres are carved from

105
00:06:00,542 --> 00:06:03,000
is not local to
the Diquis Delta,

106
00:06:03,167 --> 00:06:05,042
but was transported
from a quarry

107
00:06:05,208 --> 00:06:08,542
that was located more
than 50 miles away.

108
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:11,542
The quarries of this material

109
00:06:11,708 --> 00:06:14,000
are allegedly found at least

110
00:06:14,208 --> 00:06:16,125
a few dozen
kilometers from the site

111
00:06:16,292 --> 00:06:18,833
where the spheres are located.

112
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,917
So that brings us
questions of transportation.

113
00:06:22,875 --> 00:06:25,833
Walking around the
rainforest is not an easy task.

114
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,750
You have creeks, you have
mountains, you have hills,

115
00:06:28,875 --> 00:06:31,375
you have branches,
you have tree roots.

116
00:06:31,542 --> 00:06:34,000
So how were they moved?

117
00:06:34,125 --> 00:06:38,542
Just as puzzling as
how the massive objects were moved

118
00:06:38,708 --> 00:06:40,333
is how they were made.

119
00:06:40,542 --> 00:06:44,333
Archeologists believe
that the Diquis civilization

120
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:47,625
carved the spheres
with simple stone tools.

121
00:06:48,667 --> 00:06:51,333
But some researchers
argue that creating

122
00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:54,333
such a precise shape
would be difficult to achieve,

123
00:06:54,500 --> 00:06:56,583
even with today's technology.

124
00:06:57,625 --> 00:06:59,625
It's important
to note that these are,

125
00:06:59,750 --> 00:07:01,958
in some reports,
granitic, which are very,

126
00:07:02,125 --> 00:07:05,542
very hard rocks to
shape, to form, to move,

127
00:07:05,750 --> 00:07:08,792
and to quarry in any capacity.

128
00:07:08,917 --> 00:07:11,583
If we wanted to make
these same spheres,

129
00:07:11,750 --> 00:07:13,708
we would need something
harder than granite.

130
00:07:13,875 --> 00:07:16,542
And there are very few
substances that are harder.

131
00:07:17,708 --> 00:07:19,167
What's
noteworthy is some of them are

132
00:07:19,333 --> 00:07:20,542
almost perfectly spherical.

133
00:07:20,708 --> 00:07:22,458
And that's a very tall task

134
00:07:22,625 --> 00:07:25,375
to create that with
the tools of the time.

135
00:07:25,542 --> 00:07:28,292
As a stonemason, I
would use diamond saws,

136
00:07:28,458 --> 00:07:30,667
I would use polishing items.

137
00:07:30,875 --> 00:07:33,167
But when you look
at Indigenous people

138
00:07:33,375 --> 00:07:35,042
that were purported
to have made them,

139
00:07:35,208 --> 00:07:37,295
did they have those machines,
did they have that equipment,

140
00:07:37,375 --> 00:07:38,625
did they have that technology?

141
00:07:40,208 --> 00:07:42,750
How could a
culture that only had access

142
00:07:42,917 --> 00:07:46,375
to stone chisels and
rudimentary tools have carved

143
00:07:46,542 --> 00:07:49,708
and transported such
enormous stone spheres?

144
00:07:49,875 --> 00:07:54,167
And what could have been
their reason for doing so?

145
00:07:54,375 --> 00:07:56,208
Since the United Fruit Company

146
00:07:56,375 --> 00:07:57,958
started moving the spheres,

147
00:07:58,125 --> 00:08:00,542
we do not know the original
location of most of them.

148
00:08:00,708 --> 00:08:03,667
You start to wonder, what
if we could go back in time

149
00:08:03,833 --> 00:08:06,667
and see the exact
location of all the spheres?

150
00:08:06,792 --> 00:08:09,333
What would they show?
Would they show a pattern?

151
00:08:09,542 --> 00:08:11,500
Would they show a
constellation map?

152
00:08:11,625 --> 00:08:13,875
Would they be like
the Nazca lines?

153
00:08:14,083 --> 00:08:16,167
Like a pattern that you
could only see from above?

154
00:08:17,750 --> 00:08:20,667
Although
documentation to explain the spheres

155
00:08:20,875 --> 00:08:23,458
does not exist,
according to local legend,

156
00:08:23,583 --> 00:08:26,750
they were created by the gods.

157
00:08:28,458 --> 00:08:32,000
One very interesting
explanation for the Costa Rica spheres is

158
00:08:32,208 --> 00:08:34,750
that they were created
by Tara, the god of thunder,

159
00:08:34,875 --> 00:08:38,917
who used some sort of a
blowpipe to shoot these spheres

160
00:08:39,083 --> 00:08:42,250
out of the pipe in order
to push back hurricanes.

161
00:08:44,875 --> 00:08:47,542
Ancient astronaut theory says
that within legends like this,

162
00:08:47,708 --> 00:08:49,500
there's often a kernel of truth.

163
00:08:49,625 --> 00:08:51,583
And so you have to wonder,

164
00:08:51,708 --> 00:08:53,667
is this a calling card

165
00:08:53,833 --> 00:08:55,458
from some
extraterrestrial entity,

166
00:08:55,583 --> 00:08:58,792
a sky god, Tara, with
some sort of message?

167
00:08:58,958 --> 00:09:04,500
To me, the ancient
legend of the god of thunder illustrates

168
00:09:04,708 --> 00:09:08,208
an example of
misunderstood technology.

169
00:09:08,375 --> 00:09:13,458
Clearly those spheres themselves
never descended from the sky.

170
00:09:13,667 --> 00:09:18,583
But maybe our ancestors saw

171
00:09:18,750 --> 00:09:24,292
the appearance of a spherical
craft by the extraterrestrials

172
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,208
who visited us
thousands of years ago.

173
00:09:28,833 --> 00:09:31,958
Was the creation
of the mysterious stone spheres

174
00:09:32,125 --> 00:09:36,542
found in Costa Rica inspired
by an extraterrestrial event,

175
00:09:36,667 --> 00:09:39,000
as ancient astronaut
theorists propose?

176
00:09:39,208 --> 00:09:43,667
And if so, just what,
exactly, do they represent?

177
00:09:44,833 --> 00:09:47,875
Perhaps further clues
can be found by examining

178
00:09:48,042 --> 00:09:52,208
the largest stone
spheres ever discovered.

179
00:09:56,917 --> 00:10:01,333
Zavidovici, Bosnia, 1999.

180
00:10:02,250 --> 00:10:07,833
Archaeologist Dr. Sam Osmanagich
and a small team of researchers

181
00:10:07,917 --> 00:10:10,083
are hiking along the Bosna River

182
00:10:10,208 --> 00:10:13,500
when they come upon
an astonishing sight.

183
00:10:13,667 --> 00:10:17,333
In the midst of the dense
forest are massive boulders

184
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:21,167
that do not appear to be
part of the natural landscape.

185
00:10:22,625 --> 00:10:25,500
We discovered
six of them intact,

186
00:10:25,667 --> 00:10:29,042
perfectly preserved
and perfectly spherical.

187
00:10:30,250 --> 00:10:33,292
To Dr. Osmanagich,
the near-perfect shape

188
00:10:33,417 --> 00:10:34,875
of the objects is compelling.

189
00:10:36,250 --> 00:10:38,500
And he begins to comb
the region in search

190
00:10:38,708 --> 00:10:40,375
of other stone spheres.

191
00:10:40,542 --> 00:10:42,833
We have been researching

192
00:10:43,042 --> 00:10:47,917
the stone spheres in
Bosnia for 25 years,

193
00:10:48,083 --> 00:10:52,875
and we have discovered
20 different locations.

194
00:10:53,875 --> 00:10:56,125
The stone spheres in Bosnia come

195
00:10:56,292 --> 00:10:58,542
in four different materials.

196
00:10:58,708 --> 00:11:01,208
Granite, volcanic stone,

197
00:11:01,375 --> 00:11:03,792
sandstone and limestone.

198
00:11:03,917 --> 00:11:06,167
And different sizes, also.

199
00:11:06,333 --> 00:11:08,333
In most cases,

200
00:11:08,458 --> 00:11:10,542
they are over one ton.

201
00:11:11,583 --> 00:11:14,667
After his initial
discovery of the stone spheres,

202
00:11:14,875 --> 00:11:18,292
Dr. Osmanagich
expanded his search.

203
00:11:18,375 --> 00:11:20,667
And in 2016, he spotted

204
00:11:20,875 --> 00:11:22,958
the most enormous stone sphere

205
00:11:23,125 --> 00:11:26,167
he had ever seen
hidden in the forest floor.

206
00:11:26,375 --> 00:11:29,708
We could see
that the small part of the sphere

207
00:11:29,875 --> 00:11:31,500
was sticking out.

208
00:11:31,708 --> 00:11:33,208
We started clearing it,

209
00:11:33,375 --> 00:11:36,750
realizing that it was huge.

210
00:11:36,917 --> 00:11:38,708
Monumental in size.

211
00:11:38,875 --> 00:11:41,625
Once we cleared
almost all of it,

212
00:11:41,708 --> 00:11:43,667
we've done the measurements.

213
00:11:44,958 --> 00:11:48,500
It is more than three
meters in diameter.

214
00:11:48,625 --> 00:11:52,750
37 tons.

215
00:11:53,750 --> 00:11:57,333
So, this was the largest
stone sphere discovery

216
00:11:57,542 --> 00:11:59,958
in the world.

217
00:12:02,125 --> 00:12:04,792
How the Bosnian
stone spheres were created

218
00:12:04,958 --> 00:12:06,375
remains a mystery.

219
00:12:06,542 --> 00:12:08,458
Some geologists suggest

220
00:12:08,667 --> 00:12:11,042
they were shaped
through erosion.

221
00:12:11,208 --> 00:12:14,250
But others believe the
spheres are simply too perfect

222
00:12:14,417 --> 00:12:16,375
to have been formed naturally.

223
00:12:18,667 --> 00:12:20,625
There is a process
called "spherical"

224
00:12:20,708 --> 00:12:22,583
or "spheroidal" weathering

225
00:12:22,708 --> 00:12:25,292
that is very, very common.

226
00:12:26,625 --> 00:12:29,292
We see them on the
landscape in Arizona,

227
00:12:29,458 --> 00:12:31,458
everywhere, called hoodoos.

228
00:12:31,625 --> 00:12:33,333
You can see them
out in Alabama Hills,

229
00:12:33,500 --> 00:12:35,333
out in Owens Valley.

230
00:12:35,458 --> 00:12:37,917
There's a lot of examples of
this sort of sphere weathering.

231
00:12:38,083 --> 00:12:41,000
But rarely are they
perfect spheres.

232
00:12:41,167 --> 00:12:44,458
And so it could be that some
of these stones started out

233
00:12:44,625 --> 00:12:46,625
mostly spheroidal,
and then were worked

234
00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:49,458
into a...

235
00:12:49,667 --> 00:12:52,000
more perfect sphere.

236
00:12:52,125 --> 00:12:54,167
The one in particular
that I'm thinking of,

237
00:12:54,333 --> 00:12:55,667
Bosnia, that's been,

238
00:12:55,792 --> 00:12:57,667
um, in the headlines lately

239
00:12:57,833 --> 00:12:59,667
has evidence of heat treating

240
00:12:59,833 --> 00:13:01,917
to help facilitate polishing.

241
00:13:02,083 --> 00:13:05,375
These are not just round stones.

242
00:13:05,542 --> 00:13:08,292
They are 96% perfect

243
00:13:08,458 --> 00:13:10,000
in their spherical form.

244
00:13:10,208 --> 00:13:12,250
That's not something
that's created by the Earth.

245
00:13:13,708 --> 00:13:16,458
The near-perfect
measurements of the stone spheres

246
00:13:16,542 --> 00:13:18,833
convinced Dr. Osmanagich

247
00:13:19,042 --> 00:13:21,958
that they were carved
by artificial means.

248
00:13:22,125 --> 00:13:25,583
And in 2016, he
sparked controversy

249
00:13:25,792 --> 00:13:28,125
when he announced
that he believed

250
00:13:28,250 --> 00:13:32,042
they originated with
some unknown civilization.

251
00:13:33,208 --> 00:13:34,958
Who made them?

252
00:13:35,125 --> 00:13:37,042
We don't have precise
answer, but we know

253
00:13:37,208 --> 00:13:40,208
that they were made
by ancient builders.

254
00:13:40,417 --> 00:13:41,708
Why?

255
00:13:41,833 --> 00:13:44,417
Granite never comes

256
00:13:44,583 --> 00:13:47,250
in spherical shape in nature.

257
00:13:48,542 --> 00:13:51,750
If the stone
spheres are not naturally formed,

258
00:13:51,875 --> 00:13:54,333
as Dr. Osmanagich suggests,

259
00:13:54,542 --> 00:13:56,500
when were they made?

260
00:13:56,583 --> 00:13:58,000
Many of the spheres

261
00:13:58,167 --> 00:14:00,667
are impossible to
scientifically date,

262
00:14:00,833 --> 00:14:02,958
but based on the layers of soil

263
00:14:03,125 --> 00:14:05,417
where the largest stone
sphere was discovered,

264
00:14:05,583 --> 00:14:10,958
Dr. Osmanagich believes
it is up to 100,000 years old.

265
00:14:11,875 --> 00:14:14,000
We don't have
very specific time,

266
00:14:14,167 --> 00:14:16,625
but what we do
know, extremely old.

267
00:14:16,750 --> 00:14:18,208
How do we know that?

268
00:14:19,417 --> 00:14:21,833
The Bosnian stones
sphere, the biggest one,

269
00:14:22,042 --> 00:14:25,125
is discovered below the tree...

270
00:14:25,292 --> 00:14:26,667
50 years...

271
00:14:26,792 --> 00:14:29,667
Dark soil... 100 years...

272
00:14:29,875 --> 00:14:32,500
Light soil... couple
of hundred years.

273
00:14:32,625 --> 00:14:34,917
We have light clay.

274
00:14:35,125 --> 00:14:36,792
Almost 1,000 years.

275
00:14:36,958 --> 00:14:38,667
We have dark clay,
we have gray clay.

276
00:14:38,833 --> 00:14:40,083
Tens of thousands of years.

277
00:14:40,250 --> 00:14:43,333
And, finally, we
have sandstone plate.

278
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:47,167
100,000-plus years.

279
00:14:48,708 --> 00:14:51,958
Is it possible
that the stone spheres in Bosnia

280
00:14:52,125 --> 00:14:54,458
were created by
some unknown culture

281
00:14:54,625 --> 00:14:57,250
tens of thousands of years ago?

282
00:14:57,417 --> 00:15:00,042
And if so, how?

283
00:15:00,208 --> 00:15:02,833
According to
the mainstream archeologists,

284
00:15:02,958 --> 00:15:04,792
until a couple of
thousands of years back,

285
00:15:04,917 --> 00:15:07,125
the only tools
were copper tools.

286
00:15:08,125 --> 00:15:10,667
Copper is soft material.

287
00:15:10,792 --> 00:15:12,667
You cannot use copper tools

288
00:15:12,833 --> 00:15:15,000
to shape granite stones.

289
00:15:15,208 --> 00:15:18,667
Of course this is us,
21st-century civilization.

290
00:15:18,833 --> 00:15:20,625
What did they use?

291
00:15:22,250 --> 00:15:25,333
To try and understand
how these artifacts were shaped,

292
00:15:25,458 --> 00:15:29,292
Dr. Osmanagich had several
samples taken from the spheres

293
00:15:29,375 --> 00:15:30,667
analyzed in a lab

294
00:15:30,875 --> 00:15:33,292
at the University of
Belgrade in Serbia.

295
00:15:33,458 --> 00:15:35,917
We realized that
there is a difference

296
00:15:36,083 --> 00:15:39,458
between their physical
and chemical properties

297
00:15:39,667 --> 00:15:43,000
and natural stone materials.

298
00:15:43,167 --> 00:15:45,167
There is a chemical component

299
00:15:45,375 --> 00:15:47,167
that was found
within the spheres.

300
00:15:47,375 --> 00:15:50,625
And this chemical has not
been able to be identified.

301
00:15:52,208 --> 00:15:54,750
If the giant
stone spheres in Bosnia

302
00:15:54,875 --> 00:15:57,750
were created by an
ancient civilization,

303
00:15:57,917 --> 00:16:00,042
what purpose did they serve?

304
00:16:00,208 --> 00:16:03,083
The precise engineering
of the monoliths,

305
00:16:03,250 --> 00:16:05,625
and the fact that many
are made of granite,

306
00:16:05,792 --> 00:16:08,292
has convinced Dr. Osmanagich

307
00:16:08,458 --> 00:16:11,167
that the stone spheres'
true purpose was to transmit

308
00:16:11,375 --> 00:16:14,167
Earth energy that
occurs in the region.

309
00:16:15,167 --> 00:16:19,250
It seems that they
had multi-layer purpose.

310
00:16:19,417 --> 00:16:22,958
According to the new
science, bio-geometry,

311
00:16:23,125 --> 00:16:25,708
three most powerful
geometrical shapes

312
00:16:25,875 --> 00:16:28,000
when it comes
to the energy, are:

313
00:16:28,167 --> 00:16:30,583
four-sided pyramid,

314
00:16:30,750 --> 00:16:32,667
conical shape,

315
00:16:32,792 --> 00:16:35,500
and the third one is the sphere.

316
00:16:35,667 --> 00:16:38,333
Those three geometrical shapes

317
00:16:38,542 --> 00:16:40,625
amplify the energies.

318
00:16:41,917 --> 00:16:43,750
Most of the stone balls

319
00:16:43,917 --> 00:16:45,833
have quartz crystal.

320
00:16:46,042 --> 00:16:48,542
Quartz crystal has the ability

321
00:16:48,708 --> 00:16:51,042
to amplify the energy.

322
00:16:51,208 --> 00:16:54,792
Dr. Semir
Osmanagich talks about

323
00:16:54,958 --> 00:16:57,792
the use of these
spheres as, potentially,

324
00:16:57,958 --> 00:16:59,250
small power supplies.

325
00:16:59,417 --> 00:17:01,542
And this makes sense
when you look at them

326
00:17:01,708 --> 00:17:04,250
in context with
the rest of Bosnia.

327
00:17:05,333 --> 00:17:07,583
When you're sitting
in this creek bed,

328
00:17:07,750 --> 00:17:11,750
surrounded by these
spheres, it's hard to describe,

329
00:17:11,875 --> 00:17:14,208
but it does feel powerful.

330
00:17:14,375 --> 00:17:17,042
It feels like it is
generating energy.

331
00:17:20,625 --> 00:17:23,292
Did the giant
stone spheres in Bosnia

332
00:17:23,417 --> 00:17:26,167
once serve a
technological function?

333
00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:28,917
And if so, might
other stone spheres

334
00:17:29,042 --> 00:17:31,250
have a similar purpose?

335
00:17:31,375 --> 00:17:35,000
Perhaps answers can
be found by examining

336
00:17:35,167 --> 00:17:37,792
hundreds of stone
spheres in Mexico

337
00:17:37,958 --> 00:17:40,542
that were hidden for centuries.

338
00:17:48,125 --> 00:17:50,542
Teotihuacan, Mexico.

339
00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:54,667
This ancient pyramid
site was once home

340
00:17:54,833 --> 00:17:56,417
to a mysterious civilization

341
00:17:56,583 --> 00:17:59,250
dating back to the
first century AD.

342
00:17:59,417 --> 00:18:03,792
A time long before the
Aztec arrived in this region.

343
00:18:05,125 --> 00:18:07,292
Since the early 1990s,

344
00:18:07,417 --> 00:18:09,792
archaeologists
have been exploring

345
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:14,333
the dozens of subterranean
rooms, tunnels, and pathways

346
00:18:14,417 --> 00:18:18,208
that lie below this
eight-square-mile complex.

347
00:18:20,333 --> 00:18:23,250
They've been doing a lot
of excavations to understand

348
00:18:23,375 --> 00:18:26,583
the nature and the relationship
of the different pyramids.

349
00:18:27,875 --> 00:18:30,125
And they're exploring underneath

350
00:18:30,292 --> 00:18:32,083
the Temple of the
Feathered Serpent.

351
00:18:32,250 --> 00:18:34,833
And so they've made
some really nice maps

352
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,500
of the pathways and such
that are underneath the temple

353
00:18:37,667 --> 00:18:41,417
and exposed caverns in areas
that they didn't know existed.

354
00:18:42,708 --> 00:18:44,417
In May of 2013,

355
00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:48,625
researchers working beneath the
Temple of the Feathered Serpent

356
00:18:48,708 --> 00:18:50,625
employed a small robot

357
00:18:50,750 --> 00:18:53,375
called Tlaloc II-TC

358
00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:56,583
to explore the recently
uncovered area.

359
00:18:56,750 --> 00:18:58,500
Inside one chamber,

360
00:18:58,625 --> 00:19:01,458
archeologists made
a curious discovery.

361
00:19:01,625 --> 00:19:06,500
They found more than 100
gold-colored metallic spheres.

362
00:19:06,708 --> 00:19:09,292
These tiny balls

363
00:19:09,458 --> 00:19:11,833
are probably anything between

364
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000
an inch to about five
inches in diameter.

365
00:19:15,167 --> 00:19:18,500
And what we can say is that

366
00:19:18,667 --> 00:19:21,125
when they were
actually put in place,

367
00:19:21,333 --> 00:19:24,250
probably about 2,000 years ago,

368
00:19:24,417 --> 00:19:26,667
you would've had this incredible

369
00:19:26,875 --> 00:19:29,167
shining gallery of lights

370
00:19:29,333 --> 00:19:31,167
as you went down it.

371
00:19:31,292 --> 00:19:34,125
They appear
gold, but when you look at them

372
00:19:34,292 --> 00:19:35,833
under chemical inspection,

373
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,750
it appears that that gold
color is the mineral pyrite.

374
00:19:41,208 --> 00:19:44,375
The Mexican archeologists
are completely perplexed.

375
00:19:44,542 --> 00:19:46,375
They haven't seen
anything like this before.

376
00:19:46,583 --> 00:19:48,458
They haven't seen
anything like this

377
00:19:48,667 --> 00:19:51,083
in their explorations
of the other temples.

378
00:19:51,250 --> 00:19:53,667
So there's lots of questions
to be answered still.

379
00:19:57,833 --> 00:20:00,458
Archeologists
retrieved several spheres

380
00:20:00,583 --> 00:20:02,875
from the chamber, and
when they analyzed them,

381
00:20:03,042 --> 00:20:05,458
they were amazed
by what they found.

382
00:20:05,583 --> 00:20:09,250
The sparkly
spheres that were found

383
00:20:09,417 --> 00:20:12,792
in Teotihuacan
really are an enigma.

384
00:20:12,958 --> 00:20:15,167
As far as how they were made,

385
00:20:15,375 --> 00:20:17,000
men definitely made them.

386
00:20:17,208 --> 00:20:18,500
We have looked at those spheres.

387
00:20:18,667 --> 00:20:20,333
And they are clay.

388
00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:22,625
They are, like, sunbaked clay

389
00:20:22,833 --> 00:20:25,667
that was then
rolled in pyrite dust.

390
00:20:25,875 --> 00:20:28,458
That's why they have
that kind of yellow color.

391
00:20:29,458 --> 00:20:32,292
Why they did it... I don't know.

392
00:20:33,625 --> 00:20:36,042
Nobody knows
the purpose of them,

393
00:20:36,208 --> 00:20:38,458
why they were made,
or even who made them,

394
00:20:38,583 --> 00:20:40,167
but the fact that they're there

395
00:20:40,333 --> 00:20:42,333
tells us they are of
utmost importance

396
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:44,583
to what went on at the temple.

397
00:20:47,458 --> 00:20:48,667
The golden spheres found

398
00:20:48,833 --> 00:20:50,958
under the Temple of
the Feathered Serpent

399
00:20:51,167 --> 00:20:53,500
are a mystery to archaeologists,

400
00:20:53,625 --> 00:20:56,458
but some believe they
may be representations

401
00:20:56,583 --> 00:21:00,833
of celestial bodies
observed in the night sky.

402
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,333
But ancient astronaut theorists
suggest the mysterious spheres

403
00:21:05,542 --> 00:21:08,125
could have served a
more profound purpose,

404
00:21:08,292 --> 00:21:12,583
and point to another
discovery made in 1906.

405
00:21:13,875 --> 00:21:16,125
At Teotihuacan,

406
00:21:16,292 --> 00:21:18,625
huge mica sheets have been found

407
00:21:18,792 --> 00:21:22,375
beneath a layer
of stone flooring

408
00:21:22,542 --> 00:21:26,167
that were 90 feet square,

409
00:21:26,375 --> 00:21:29,167
and they were placed
directly on top of each other,

410
00:21:29,333 --> 00:21:30,833
and yet, you couldn't see them.

411
00:21:32,458 --> 00:21:36,542
So, they clearly weren't
decorative or aesthetic,

412
00:21:36,708 --> 00:21:40,500
they were clearly
functional in their use.

413
00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:43,125
So what were they doing there?

414
00:21:43,292 --> 00:21:45,250
We use mica today

415
00:21:45,417 --> 00:21:47,375
in spacefaring technology.

416
00:21:47,542 --> 00:21:49,667
It's a heat shield

417
00:21:49,875 --> 00:21:53,083
for high, very, very
high temperatures.

418
00:21:53,208 --> 00:21:55,375
What is it doing at Teotihuacan?

419
00:21:55,542 --> 00:21:59,458
What's also fascinating is
that, throughout Teotihuacan,

420
00:21:59,625 --> 00:22:03,000
you see burn marks on the walls.

421
00:22:03,208 --> 00:22:06,958
So, at some point, Teotihuacan

422
00:22:07,125 --> 00:22:10,167
underwent a gigantic fire.

423
00:22:10,292 --> 00:22:13,208
Or was it something else?

424
00:22:13,375 --> 00:22:16,333
Was it some type of a blast?

425
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:18,458
Was it some type of an exhaust?

426
00:22:18,625 --> 00:22:20,542
Curiously,

427
00:22:20,708 --> 00:22:23,500
mica wasn't the only
unusual substance

428
00:22:23,667 --> 00:22:26,333
found within the
ancient structure.

429
00:22:26,458 --> 00:22:29,333
They actually found mercury

430
00:22:29,500 --> 00:22:31,167
under some of the
pyramids as well.

431
00:22:31,292 --> 00:22:32,667
So what does this all mean?

432
00:22:32,875 --> 00:22:34,292
Well, mercury is used

433
00:22:34,458 --> 00:22:36,167
in different electrical
components,

434
00:22:36,333 --> 00:22:38,333
and it conducts electricity.

435
00:22:38,542 --> 00:22:40,250
So, can we suggest
that they were

436
00:22:40,417 --> 00:22:44,000
using this for some advanced
technological purpose?

437
00:22:44,167 --> 00:22:47,375
Mercury itself is-is very special.

438
00:22:47,542 --> 00:22:50,667
It's a metal, it's a liquid,
it's an electrical conductor.

439
00:22:50,833 --> 00:22:53,917
Mercury can be used
for many, many devices,

440
00:22:54,083 --> 00:22:55,833
all of which are high-tech.

441
00:22:56,042 --> 00:23:00,625
So you have to wonder, what
is going on here at Teotihuacan?

442
00:23:00,792 --> 00:23:04,833
Do these small
balls and the mica

443
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,208
and the mercury and
other facets of the pyramid,

444
00:23:08,375 --> 00:23:10,375
are they all working together

445
00:23:10,542 --> 00:23:14,958
to create some kind
of electrical device

446
00:23:15,125 --> 00:23:17,083
that's doing something?

447
00:23:17,208 --> 00:23:19,458
That would seem to be the case.

448
00:23:19,667 --> 00:23:23,125
Does the
discovery at Teotihuacan

449
00:23:23,250 --> 00:23:24,875
of both mica and mercury,

450
00:23:25,042 --> 00:23:28,750
two substances with
high-tech applications,

451
00:23:28,917 --> 00:23:31,625
indicate that an
advanced technology

452
00:23:31,792 --> 00:23:36,125
once existed in this
ancient Mesoamerican city?

453
00:23:36,333 --> 00:23:38,833
One that involved
the mysterious spheres

454
00:23:39,042 --> 00:23:42,667
found under the Temple
of the Feathered Serpent?

455
00:23:42,792 --> 00:23:46,333
We've often suggested
that ancient structures

456
00:23:46,458 --> 00:23:49,333
may have been used as some type

457
00:23:49,542 --> 00:23:51,208
of energy capacitor.

458
00:23:51,333 --> 00:23:54,417
An aeronautics
engineer has suggested

459
00:23:54,542 --> 00:23:58,417
that the Great Pyramid of
Egypt, or the whole Giza complex,

460
00:23:58,583 --> 00:24:01,417
may have been some
type of a giant power plant.

461
00:24:01,625 --> 00:24:05,375
Well, what if Egypt
is not the only place

462
00:24:05,542 --> 00:24:07,875
where they had
something like this?

463
00:24:08,042 --> 00:24:12,542
Are the small golden
spheres discovered at Teotihuacan

464
00:24:12,708 --> 00:24:16,000
evidence of an
extraterrestrial presence

465
00:24:16,208 --> 00:24:19,333
on Earth centuries ago?

466
00:24:19,542 --> 00:24:22,667
Ancient astronaut
theorists say yes,

467
00:24:22,875 --> 00:24:25,167
and suggest further
clues can be found

468
00:24:25,333 --> 00:24:31,167
by examining mysterious spheres
that are not from this planet.

469
00:24:37,292 --> 00:24:42,208
Cambridge, Massachusetts, 2019.

470
00:24:43,375 --> 00:24:47,167
Harvard astrophysicist
Dr. Avi Loeb

471
00:24:47,375 --> 00:24:49,750
learns of a meteorite
that exploded

472
00:24:49,917 --> 00:24:53,167
over the Pacific
Ocean five years earlier.

473
00:24:55,042 --> 00:24:57,500
I came across a meteor catalog

474
00:24:57,667 --> 00:24:59,333
that the government compiled

475
00:24:59,542 --> 00:25:01,500
using its missile
warning system.

476
00:25:01,625 --> 00:25:03,625
The meteor, burned up

477
00:25:03,750 --> 00:25:08,292
about 100 miles off the
coast of Papua New Guinea,

478
00:25:08,458 --> 00:25:10,708
and it released a few
percent of the energy

479
00:25:10,917 --> 00:25:13,625
of the Hiroshima
bomb when it exploded.

480
00:25:13,833 --> 00:25:15,667
From that, we inferred

481
00:25:15,875 --> 00:25:19,708
it was about half a meter
in size when it exploded.

482
00:25:19,875 --> 00:25:22,792
What
intrigued Dr. Loeb the most

483
00:25:22,917 --> 00:25:26,167
wasn't the object's size
but where it came from.

484
00:25:26,375 --> 00:25:28,000
The meteor was actually moving

485
00:25:28,208 --> 00:25:33,083
at 60 kilometers per second,
clearly unbound to the Sun.

486
00:25:33,250 --> 00:25:36,500
It must have originated
from outside the solar system.

487
00:25:36,667 --> 00:25:38,708
This
revelation is the first time

488
00:25:38,833 --> 00:25:42,083
astronomers have
identified an interstellar object

489
00:25:42,292 --> 00:25:44,542
that entered the
Earth's atmosphere.

490
00:25:44,708 --> 00:25:47,292
Excited by the discovery,

491
00:25:47,458 --> 00:25:50,250
Dr. Loeb closely
examined the data

492
00:25:50,417 --> 00:25:52,542
captured by the
military satellites,

493
00:25:52,708 --> 00:25:55,500
and he noticed
something extraordinary.

494
00:25:55,667 --> 00:25:57,750
The government released data

495
00:25:57,958 --> 00:26:01,333
of the explosion and from
that, we inferred that the object

496
00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:04,750
has material strength
that is very unusual.

497
00:26:04,875 --> 00:26:08,042
It's made of some alloy
that is much tougher

498
00:26:08,208 --> 00:26:10,167
than iron meteorites.

499
00:26:10,292 --> 00:26:15,458
So, not only was this object
the first interstellar meteor

500
00:26:15,625 --> 00:26:19,667
but it was also tougher
than all other meteors

501
00:26:19,750 --> 00:26:23,292
detected by the
government in that catalog.

502
00:26:23,458 --> 00:26:25,333
And that raises the possibility

503
00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:28,292
that it may have
been a spacecraft.

504
00:26:29,417 --> 00:26:30,500
Is it possible

505
00:26:30,667 --> 00:26:32,667
that an extraterrestrial
spacecraft

506
00:26:32,792 --> 00:26:35,000
crashed into the Pacific Ocean?

507
00:26:35,208 --> 00:26:38,625
To find out, Dr. Loeb
and a team of scientists

508
00:26:38,833 --> 00:26:41,542
set out in June 2023

509
00:26:41,708 --> 00:26:45,000
to attempt to retrieve
any debris of the event.

510
00:26:45,125 --> 00:26:48,708
Avi Loeb
initiated this expedition

511
00:26:48,875 --> 00:26:51,125
off the coast of
Papua New Guinea

512
00:26:51,250 --> 00:26:54,875
to try and retrieve the
fragments of this meteor,

513
00:26:55,042 --> 00:26:59,833
which was now known
under the name IM1.

514
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,667
And this expedition was
incredibly successful.

515
00:27:04,833 --> 00:27:08,667
What they managed to
do, using a magnetic sledge,

516
00:27:08,833 --> 00:27:15,250
was to retrieve around
700 very tiny spherules.

517
00:27:16,542 --> 00:27:18,000
The samples were sent

518
00:27:18,208 --> 00:27:21,500
to Harvard College
Observatory for further study,

519
00:27:21,708 --> 00:27:24,625
because no one knows,
really, where they came from

520
00:27:24,750 --> 00:27:26,625
and what they're made of.

521
00:27:26,750 --> 00:27:28,208
Remarkably,

522
00:27:28,375 --> 00:27:31,167
the material recovered
by the magnetic sled,

523
00:27:31,292 --> 00:27:34,042
containing microscopic
metal spherules,

524
00:27:34,208 --> 00:27:38,833
was unlike anything the
scientists had ever seen.

525
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,583
Probably about 50 to 60 so far

526
00:27:42,750 --> 00:27:44,875
have been properly studied.

527
00:27:45,042 --> 00:27:50,167
And these show elements
that could not have been

528
00:27:50,375 --> 00:27:53,875
from the solar system
itself, or not primarily.

529
00:27:54,083 --> 00:27:57,625
They must have come in
from another star system.

530
00:27:59,208 --> 00:28:01,750
To Dr. Loeb,
the discovery is evidence

531
00:28:01,958 --> 00:28:04,958
that he has found remnants
of the interstellar meteorite.

532
00:28:05,083 --> 00:28:08,792
But the most remarkable
find was still to come.

533
00:28:08,917 --> 00:28:12,250
Further scientific testing
of the mysterious objects

534
00:28:12,417 --> 00:28:15,958
revealed a composition
that led Dr. Loeb to believe

535
00:28:16,125 --> 00:28:20,792
they could be fragments of
extraterrestrial technology.

536
00:28:20,958 --> 00:28:22,958
The spheres were
found to contain

537
00:28:23,125 --> 00:28:25,667
extremely high
levels of beryllium,

538
00:28:25,833 --> 00:28:28,167
lanthanum and uranium,

539
00:28:28,375 --> 00:28:33,250
making a never-before-seen
compound known as "BeLaU."

540
00:28:33,417 --> 00:28:35,792
That BeLaU
composition does not exist

541
00:28:35,958 --> 00:28:38,917
in any known mineral
or rock that we know of.

542
00:28:39,042 --> 00:28:41,542
And so this does
speak to his hypothesis

543
00:28:41,708 --> 00:28:44,833
that they're manufactured
extraterrestrially.

544
00:28:45,042 --> 00:28:48,125
Dr. Avi Loeb proposes

545
00:28:48,208 --> 00:28:54,875
that these spherules may be part
of some type of E.T. technology.

546
00:28:55,042 --> 00:28:59,292
What exactly he means
by that, I don't know.

547
00:28:59,458 --> 00:29:02,833
Could that really be a remnant

548
00:29:02,958 --> 00:29:07,333
of a far, far distant
extraterrestrial civilization?

549
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:12,583
Word of Dr. Loeb's
discovery made headlines across the globe

550
00:29:12,708 --> 00:29:16,000
and stirred up controversy
among his peers.

551
00:29:16,208 --> 00:29:17,753
Within academia,
there is still resistance

552
00:29:17,833 --> 00:29:20,167
to discussing this
subject openly.

553
00:29:20,375 --> 00:29:25,333
However, if we do not
invest in getting better data,

554
00:29:25,542 --> 00:29:29,833
we will never be able to figure
out the nature of these objects.

555
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,208
Unless you search, you
will never find this evidence.

556
00:29:33,375 --> 00:29:36,750
Is it possible
that the mysterious alloy

557
00:29:36,875 --> 00:29:40,625
is a material created by
extraterrestrial beings?

558
00:29:40,792 --> 00:29:43,750
Dr. Loeb's research is ongoing.

559
00:29:43,875 --> 00:29:46,333
But if true, the
spheres he discovered

560
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:51,167
will upend humanity's
place in the universe.

561
00:29:51,333 --> 00:29:53,167
We will publish our results

562
00:29:53,375 --> 00:29:55,000
in peer-reviewed journals

563
00:29:55,208 --> 00:29:59,375
and make them available
for anyone to see.

564
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,750
If we end up concluding
that it was artificial in origin,

565
00:30:02,958 --> 00:30:04,667
perhaps a spacecraft,

566
00:30:04,875 --> 00:30:08,750
that would be the first
time that we found evidence

567
00:30:08,958 --> 00:30:13,250
for an object that originated
from another civilization.

568
00:30:14,708 --> 00:30:16,333
Avi Loeb's suggestion

569
00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:17,917
that the spheres may have come

570
00:30:18,042 --> 00:30:20,208
from an extraterrestrial
spacecraft

571
00:30:20,417 --> 00:30:24,000
has been hotly debated in
the scientific community...

572
00:30:24,167 --> 00:30:26,208
- Got filaments here.
- But incredibly,

573
00:30:26,417 --> 00:30:30,667
another scientist has also
recovered tiny metal spheres

574
00:30:30,750 --> 00:30:35,042
that he is convinced
are of alien origin.

575
00:30:39,875 --> 00:30:43,750
The University
of Sheffield, England, 2015.

576
00:30:43,917 --> 00:30:45,708
Andre, on
you. Countdown, please.

577
00:30:45,875 --> 00:30:47,750
Astrobiologist
Dr. Milton Wainwright

578
00:30:47,917 --> 00:30:50,708
- and his research team...
- Three, two, one.

579
00:30:50,917 --> 00:30:52,417
Release scientific balloons

580
00:30:52,583 --> 00:30:55,125
25 miles up into the sky.

581
00:30:55,292 --> 00:30:58,167
Once a balloon
reaches its target altitude,

582
00:30:58,375 --> 00:31:01,667
a capture mechanism will
collect samples of material

583
00:31:01,875 --> 00:31:04,708
within the Earth's stratosphere.

584
00:31:04,875 --> 00:31:08,083
After the sampling is
complete, the balloon bursts,

585
00:31:08,250 --> 00:31:11,500
and the capture mechanism
descends back to Earth

586
00:31:11,667 --> 00:31:15,125
under the safety of a parachute.

587
00:31:15,333 --> 00:31:19,250
In 2015,
Dr. Milton Wainwright,

588
00:31:19,375 --> 00:31:22,667
sent one of these
balloons up, and it was hit

589
00:31:22,875 --> 00:31:25,667
at an incredible
rate, by something

590
00:31:25,833 --> 00:31:29,167
that left behind a small crater.

591
00:31:29,375 --> 00:31:33,083
And when they actually
dug into this crater

592
00:31:33,208 --> 00:31:38,333
to see what it was,
it was a tiny sphere.

593
00:31:38,458 --> 00:31:42,250
And when they actually examined
what the sphere was made of,

594
00:31:42,375 --> 00:31:47,333
it was found to be of
titanium and vanadium.

595
00:31:47,542 --> 00:31:50,042
And these are elements

596
00:31:50,208 --> 00:31:52,458
that shouldn't
be there naturally

597
00:31:52,625 --> 00:31:54,500
out in the lower atmosphere.

598
00:31:55,458 --> 00:31:58,833
There's no Earth material
associated with them.

599
00:31:58,958 --> 00:32:02,292
And they're too large
to be carried from Earth

600
00:32:02,417 --> 00:32:03,667
to these altitudes.

601
00:32:03,833 --> 00:32:06,458
They must be
incoming from space.

602
00:32:06,625 --> 00:32:09,167
Where are they coming
from? We just don't know.

603
00:32:10,208 --> 00:32:12,000
Upon closer examination,

604
00:32:12,167 --> 00:32:15,208
Dr. Wainwright
noticed the small sphere

605
00:32:15,375 --> 00:32:18,458
contained something
completely unexpected.

606
00:32:18,667 --> 00:32:21,083
This tiny
sphere, when they studied it

607
00:32:21,208 --> 00:32:23,542
under electron microscope,

608
00:32:23,750 --> 00:32:25,833
saw that it was actually a shell

609
00:32:25,958 --> 00:32:27,333
that had now broken,

610
00:32:27,542 --> 00:32:29,792
and coming out of it

611
00:32:29,917 --> 00:32:33,042
was this strange
ooze that they felt

612
00:32:33,208 --> 00:32:35,667
was biological in nature.

613
00:32:36,792 --> 00:32:40,208
The characteristics
of these organisms is very interesting.

614
00:32:40,375 --> 00:32:42,667
They're made of
carbon and oxygen,

615
00:32:42,833 --> 00:32:44,667
so we know they're life-forms.

616
00:32:44,875 --> 00:32:48,333
They don't contain silicon, so
they're not bits of cosmic dust.

617
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:50,167
They're very unusual.

618
00:32:50,333 --> 00:32:52,087
When I see the shapes of
these things, I'm amazed,

619
00:32:52,167 --> 00:32:54,128
'cause I've never seen
anything like them on Earth.

620
00:32:54,208 --> 00:32:58,042
There's no textbook version of
the pictures we've been seeing.

621
00:32:59,083 --> 00:33:00,667
Although it is still unknown

622
00:33:00,875 --> 00:33:03,000
just where these
spheres come from,

623
00:33:03,167 --> 00:33:06,000
Dr. Wainwright believes
they are being used

624
00:33:06,125 --> 00:33:08,833
to introduce new
life-forms on Earth.

625
00:33:08,958 --> 00:33:12,667
This concept is
known as panspermia.

626
00:33:12,792 --> 00:33:15,667
The question, how
life ever got here,

627
00:33:15,833 --> 00:33:19,708
to astronomers and
to astrobiologists,

628
00:33:19,875 --> 00:33:22,458
is still a gigantic
question mark

629
00:33:22,583 --> 00:33:24,000
and a huge debate

630
00:33:24,208 --> 00:33:27,625
because, at some
point, our planet

631
00:33:27,792 --> 00:33:32,292
was just a rock with
rocks and water. That's it.

632
00:33:32,417 --> 00:33:34,333
And so, how did it all begin?

633
00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:37,292
And so, there's two
ways. One is panspermia.

634
00:33:37,458 --> 00:33:41,000
Panspermia suggests
that life was carried

635
00:33:41,167 --> 00:33:45,125
on the backs of comets
throughout the universe.

636
00:33:45,292 --> 00:33:48,708
So, it's a natural
seeding of the planets.

637
00:33:48,875 --> 00:33:51,167
The other one is
directed panspermia,

638
00:33:51,375 --> 00:33:54,333
and direct panspermia dictates

639
00:33:54,542 --> 00:33:59,000
that an intelligent
extraterrestrial civilization

640
00:33:59,167 --> 00:34:01,792
that's much, much
older than ours

641
00:34:01,917 --> 00:34:05,667
sent probes out
to seed the planet

642
00:34:05,792 --> 00:34:08,125
with their own DNA.

643
00:34:09,458 --> 00:34:12,333
Directed panspermia
is an idea first suggested

644
00:34:12,500 --> 00:34:17,167
by the famous DNA
pioneer Francis Crick.

645
00:34:17,292 --> 00:34:20,458
And, basically, the
idea is that maybe

646
00:34:20,625 --> 00:34:22,667
aliens sent life to Earth.

647
00:34:22,875 --> 00:34:26,500
This is the
idea that an alien civilization

648
00:34:26,708 --> 00:34:29,375
would send out these seeds

649
00:34:29,542 --> 00:34:32,375
into different
parts of the galaxy

650
00:34:32,583 --> 00:34:35,958
that would come into the
atmospheres of planets

651
00:34:36,083 --> 00:34:38,792
and eventually
reach the surface.

652
00:34:38,958 --> 00:34:42,708
And this biological
ooze would then create

653
00:34:42,875 --> 00:34:44,667
the beginnings of life itself.

654
00:34:45,750 --> 00:34:49,792
With
Dr. Wainwright's small metal sphere,

655
00:34:49,958 --> 00:34:55,458
you have to wonder, is this
protein ooze that's inside it

656
00:34:55,583 --> 00:35:00,292
something to seed
the planet with life?

657
00:35:00,458 --> 00:35:03,000
And to me, that's
a fascinating idea.

658
00:35:03,167 --> 00:35:06,083
And if this is the case, then

659
00:35:06,250 --> 00:35:07,875
perhaps the extraterrestrials

660
00:35:08,042 --> 00:35:11,083
are using these
metallic spheres,

661
00:35:11,208 --> 00:35:15,000
which are full of
some protein liquid

662
00:35:15,167 --> 00:35:18,667
that will jump-start
life on the planet.

663
00:35:19,708 --> 00:35:23,083
Could the tiny metal
spheres found in our atmosphere

664
00:35:23,250 --> 00:35:25,625
really be designed
to seed life on Earth?

665
00:35:25,708 --> 00:35:28,542
For Dr. Wainwright,
the distinct shape

666
00:35:28,667 --> 00:35:33,292
of the microscopic objects
presents a compelling argument.

667
00:35:33,458 --> 00:35:34,833
The reason I'm suggesting

668
00:35:35,042 --> 00:35:36,583
it might be artificial
engineering,

669
00:35:36,750 --> 00:35:39,500
it's pretty obvious that, if
you're looking for a vehicle

670
00:35:39,625 --> 00:35:43,125
of directed panspermia,
this is what you would pick.

671
00:35:43,250 --> 00:35:46,500
Instead of sending one
rocket, you know, to California

672
00:35:46,708 --> 00:35:48,708
or to Sheffield,
what you want to do

673
00:35:48,875 --> 00:35:53,250
is to completely cover the
globe in minute balls of life.

674
00:35:53,417 --> 00:35:56,667
And this would
absolutely fit the bill.

675
00:35:57,750 --> 00:36:01,458
To Dr. Wainwright, this
was evidence of cosmic seeding.

676
00:36:01,625 --> 00:36:04,417
He believed that the spheres
were, in fact, a technology...

677
00:36:04,583 --> 00:36:07,000
A seed, if you will... that
were sent deliberately

678
00:36:07,125 --> 00:36:10,500
to Earth by some unknown
advanced civilization.

679
00:36:10,583 --> 00:36:12,583
This would certainly be one way

680
00:36:12,750 --> 00:36:15,417
of accelerating
evolution on Earth.

681
00:36:16,708 --> 00:36:19,792
Dr. Wainwright
awaits additional funding

682
00:36:19,917 --> 00:36:22,083
to continue his experiments,

683
00:36:22,250 --> 00:36:25,333
and as far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

684
00:36:25,500 --> 00:36:29,000
the questions raised
by his research

685
00:36:29,208 --> 00:36:31,667
merit further examination.

686
00:36:31,875 --> 00:36:35,167
This oozing
liquid that's inside these spherules

687
00:36:35,333 --> 00:36:39,000
is something that has never
been discovered elsewhere.

688
00:36:39,167 --> 00:36:40,167
So what is it?

689
00:36:41,208 --> 00:36:45,417
Could it be that this is a part

690
00:36:45,583 --> 00:36:49,000
of a directed panspermia project

691
00:36:49,167 --> 00:36:52,625
that was used by
extraterrestrials,

692
00:36:52,792 --> 00:36:57,500
and we just happen to have
found the evidence for it?

693
00:36:57,625 --> 00:37:01,208
I think what
Dr. Wainwright discovered

694
00:37:01,375 --> 00:37:04,083
is crucial in figuring out

695
00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:08,042
the larger picture
that our origins

696
00:37:08,208 --> 00:37:11,625
is not down here on
Earth, but out there.

697
00:37:13,042 --> 00:37:16,250
Do the microscopic
spheres found in the upper atmosphere

698
00:37:16,417 --> 00:37:19,250
provide proof that
extraterrestrials

699
00:37:19,375 --> 00:37:21,542
seeded life on Earth?

700
00:37:21,708 --> 00:37:25,000
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

701
00:37:25,167 --> 00:37:27,167
it's an intriguing possibility.

702
00:37:27,333 --> 00:37:31,167
And they suggest further
evidence of a connection

703
00:37:31,375 --> 00:37:33,500
between the planet's
mysterious spheres

704
00:37:33,667 --> 00:37:37,458
and alien visitation can
be found by examining

705
00:37:37,625 --> 00:37:40,500
hundreds of stone orbs
discovered in Scotland

706
00:37:40,625 --> 00:37:44,750
that were used to
communicate with the gods.

707
00:37:53,292 --> 00:37:55,917
The Orkney Islands, Scotland.

708
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,333
In the 19th century,

709
00:37:59,542 --> 00:38:03,083
archeologists excavating
a neolithic settlement here

710
00:38:03,208 --> 00:38:06,125
discovered five
small stone spheres.

711
00:38:06,292 --> 00:38:08,417
Over the years, more than 500

712
00:38:08,583 --> 00:38:11,500
have been unearthed
throughout the region.

713
00:38:11,708 --> 00:38:15,167
The petrospheres in Scotland
are very, very interesting.

714
00:38:15,375 --> 00:38:19,167
They appear to be
of neolithic origin.

715
00:38:19,375 --> 00:38:23,333
So, we're going back to
12,000 BC to about 4500 BC.

716
00:38:23,542 --> 00:38:26,667
They're small, almost the size
of ball bearings or something.

717
00:38:27,708 --> 00:38:30,458
They have
geometric forms and spirals,

718
00:38:30,625 --> 00:38:34,500
and it is obvious that they
were produced by humans.

719
00:38:34,667 --> 00:38:36,292
The question is, why
were they produced

720
00:38:36,375 --> 00:38:37,792
and what do all
the symbols mean?

721
00:38:39,167 --> 00:38:40,833
While mainstream archaeologists

722
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,000
have yet to identify the
purpose of these stones,

723
00:38:44,167 --> 00:38:46,667
ancient astronaut
theorists believe

724
00:38:46,875 --> 00:38:49,542
the answer can be
found in local legends,

725
00:38:49,708 --> 00:38:52,250
which claim they were
used to communicate

726
00:38:52,458 --> 00:38:54,958
with otherworldly beings.

727
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,625
Legend says that they
could be used as oracle stones,

728
00:38:58,792 --> 00:39:00,958
that a person would
ask a question,

729
00:39:01,125 --> 00:39:03,000
throw the stone on the ground,

730
00:39:03,208 --> 00:39:05,667
and they would get
some sort of an answer.

731
00:39:05,875 --> 00:39:07,878
And that makes me wonder
if it's possible that these

732
00:39:07,958 --> 00:39:10,833
smaller handheld stones
are somehow connected

733
00:39:10,958 --> 00:39:12,667
to the larger stone spheres,

734
00:39:12,833 --> 00:39:15,583
and they're perhaps
amplifiers or transmitters

735
00:39:15,750 --> 00:39:17,583
of Earth's energy,
and that they all have

736
00:39:17,792 --> 00:39:20,333
some sort of an
energetic function.

737
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,375
Could it be
that the ancient stone spheres

738
00:39:25,542 --> 00:39:28,667
found around the world
were intended to amplify

739
00:39:28,833 --> 00:39:32,917
the energy of the Earth for a
purpose we have yet to discover?

740
00:39:33,083 --> 00:39:36,542
Or is our fascination with
spheres simply inspired

741
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:39,750
by the connection we
feel to the spherical bodies

742
00:39:39,875 --> 00:39:42,125
we see in the heavens?

743
00:39:42,333 --> 00:39:45,042
Perhaps the explanation
is more profound

744
00:39:45,250 --> 00:39:47,667
than we can even imagine.

745
00:39:48,708 --> 00:39:50,167
As a stonemason,
I'm very interested

746
00:39:50,375 --> 00:39:51,795
in this mystery of
the stone spheres.

747
00:39:51,875 --> 00:39:55,000
I think it's, a very
enigmatic mystery.

748
00:39:55,167 --> 00:39:57,667
It's a mixture of
science, geology,

749
00:39:57,875 --> 00:40:01,333
actual human manufacture,
and legends of gods.

750
00:40:01,500 --> 00:40:04,625
And I feel that more
and more objects like this

751
00:40:04,792 --> 00:40:06,500
may emerge because
I think people are keen

752
00:40:06,708 --> 00:40:08,625
on looking at our
past like never before.

753
00:40:10,333 --> 00:40:13,833
In my experience,
stone speaks to humans.

754
00:40:14,042 --> 00:40:15,625
Stone has a story to tell.

755
00:40:15,750 --> 00:40:20,000
Stone is placed in specific
ways with specific properties

756
00:40:20,208 --> 00:40:23,042
to emit some message,

757
00:40:23,208 --> 00:40:24,667
communication devices, maybe...

758
00:40:24,833 --> 00:40:26,417
It-it's a very
interesting medium.

759
00:40:26,583 --> 00:40:30,458
And I really believe there
is an understanding here

760
00:40:30,583 --> 00:40:33,792
of something larger that the
stone is trying to convey to us.

761
00:40:34,750 --> 00:40:37,833
Our fascination
with stone spheres,

762
00:40:38,042 --> 00:40:40,500
whether they be tiny,

763
00:40:40,708 --> 00:40:43,958
handheld, or massive,

764
00:40:44,125 --> 00:40:48,000
is something that is associated

765
00:40:48,083 --> 00:40:51,500
with connections with
otherworldly environments,

766
00:40:51,667 --> 00:40:54,833
that we see spheres

767
00:40:55,042 --> 00:40:58,833
as points of communication
with the other world.

768
00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:05,958
Clearly, the
sphere has played a crucial part

769
00:41:06,125 --> 00:41:08,542
in all of our ancient cultures.

770
00:41:08,667 --> 00:41:11,750
And you have to
ask yourself, why?

771
00:41:11,917 --> 00:41:13,833
Could there be more behind it?

772
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,250
What was the
purpose of creating the spheres?

773
00:41:18,375 --> 00:41:20,167
Is it indeed communication?

774
00:41:20,292 --> 00:41:22,333
Are they information
storage devices?

775
00:41:22,542 --> 00:41:26,917
A commemoration of the
original seeding of the planet?

776
00:41:27,083 --> 00:41:28,833
We still don't know.

777
00:41:28,958 --> 00:41:30,667
And that just adds
to the mystery.

778
00:41:31,917 --> 00:41:34,958
Do the stone
spheres found throughout the globe

779
00:41:35,125 --> 00:41:38,500
serve as testament to
extraterrestrial visitation

780
00:41:38,667 --> 00:41:40,417
in the distant past?

781
00:41:40,583 --> 00:41:45,167
Are they commemorating
the origins of life on Earth?

782
00:41:45,375 --> 00:41:49,458
Some profound technology
witnessed by our ancestors?

783
00:41:49,625 --> 00:41:52,167
Or could they even have served

784
00:41:52,375 --> 00:41:54,500
a technological
function themselves

785
00:41:54,625 --> 00:41:57,583
that we might one
day reactivate?

786
00:41:57,708 --> 00:42:00,583
Perhaps the mystery
of the stone spheres

787
00:42:00,708 --> 00:42:03,542
will only be solved
once we are reunited

788
00:42:03,750 --> 00:42:06,458
with our alien ancestors.
