NARRATOR: A doorway to other dimensions...
DAVID WILCOCK: They were traveling through some sort of
energetic portal.
NARRATOR: an unexplained disappearance...
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: The idea that, all of a sudden,
they would just disappear into thin air...
there's something going on there.
NARRATOR: and a cave said to be the gateway to Hell.
ANDREW COLLINS: Even today, any birds going near it fall down dead.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that
portals to other points in the universe truly exist right here
on Earth? And might these so-called
stargates actually provide a connection to alien civilizations?
WILLIAM HENRY: It's possible
that we were created by these ancient gods who came here in
stargates and they intended for us to one day join them in the stars.
Perhaps today is that day.
NARRATOR: Millions of people around the world believe we have
been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings.
What if it were true? Did ancient aliens really help
to shape our history? And if so, might they have
arrived here through stargates?

Pamukkale, Turkey. Here, 200 miles south of
Istanbul, lie the ruins of Hierapolis, an ancient city that
served as a sacred site to the Phrygians in the 3rd century BC.
In March 2013, Italian archaeologists announced that
they had unearthed something the ancient Greeks described as a
gateway to Hell.
JONATHAN YOUNG: The ancients in Greece and Roman
civilizations had a fascination with the underworld, the realm
of Hades and Pluto.
There were many stories of travelers who were able to
transit into these unseen realms.
To go to the land of the dead and survive was a great miracle
showing great heroism.
NARRATOR: According to the accounts of Greek geographer
Strabo, this cave, now partially bricked up, was known as a
Ploutonion, or Pluto's Gate, for the god of the underworld.
It was considered so sacred that only cult priests were allowed near it.
These priests worshipped a powerful goddess known as Cybele.
KATHLEEN McGOWAN COPPENS: Cybele started out as a goddess
that was important in Asia Minor and then spread west into Greece and Rome.
She is known as the guardian of the gateways.
You would have to get Cybele's
permission to move through time and space.
SABINA MAGLIOCCO: Iconographically, she is often
portrayed as standing next to the gate to the other world.
I think the realm of the gods has always fascinated humans
because it is imagined as being very different from our own
realm, and so humans have always sought a way to enter the realm
of the gods, to have those ecstatic experiences that happen
when you are in communication with a deity.
NARRATOR: Legends from around the world describe sacred
entryways similar to Pluto's Gate that led to the land of the gods.
In many cases, these gates not
only provided instant passage outside the confines of Earth,
but even beyond space and time. And according to some myths,
they were traversed by otherworldly beings.
HENRY: Throughout the ancient world, we're presented with
stories of advanced beings who came from the stars, star beings.
In many of these instances, they
are described as passing through portals or star doors.
The term we use today is stargate.
TIM SWARTZ: A stargate is a place that allows transportation
to another planet or somewhere out in the stars.
There have been a number of locations across the planet
where it's been felt that the ancients built stargates.
NARRATOR: Are such passages or stargates just the product
of our ancestors' imaginations? Or might this kind of
interstellar travel have actually existed in the ancient world?
If so, who or what created
such advanced technology thousands of years ago?
Some ancient astronaut theorists believe more clues can be found
in the descriptions of the elaborate rituals that took
place at the Turkish Ploutonion.
YOUNG: It was a great spectacle when the priests of
Cybele would do their ceremonial sacrifice.
They'd lead a bull into the cave, and the bull would die of
the gases in this cave, and the people were gathered, watching
this whole thing. Then the priests would bring out
this sacrificed animal, and everyone would notice the
priests were alive, showing they had some great power or direct
connection to the divine source to be able to survive the
rituals themselves. This would prove then that this
was the gate to Hell, and all the people would be afraid and
have great respect for it.
McGOWAN: The fact that these
rituals existed, the fact that Cybele was known as the guardian
of the gateway, tells us that the ancients were doing
something really important with this idea of time travel, of portals.
NARRATOR: Excavations have
revealed that in fact there are vapors rising from the ground at
the site that contain poisonous levels of carbon dioxide and
other gases capable of killing anyone or anything that breathes them in.
COLLINS: The ancient story said that animals that came
anywhere near this would drop down dead.
The same still occurs today. Any birds going near it fall down dead.
NARRATOR: If the toxins
within the cave were potent enough to kill a bull, how did
the priests survive this ritual? Is it possible, as some
ancient astronaut theorists believe, that the priests had
received secret knowledge and perhaps even access to a
stargate from an otherworldly being known as Cybele?
WILCOCK: In Pamukkale, Turkey, this does appear to be
a preserved record of a possible stargate technology that is
being used. As these special priests were
able to go into this area, they may have been traveling through
some sort of energetic portal that gave them the ability to
reach some other location that was completely different from
where people normally were going if they walked into this area.
DAVID CHILDRESS: You have to wonder if there was something
secret in this cave that they were hiding, perhaps some kind
of inter-dimensional stargate technology, and that they would
put on this show to basically frighten them, make sure that
they realized this cave was a forbidden place to go into and
in fact was some kind of repository for alien technology
and possibly stargates.
NARRATOR: Could the Ploutonion really be an
extraterrestrial stargate... one that was protected by priests in
order to dissuade others from approaching it?
And if so, why? Perhaps the answer can be found
at another ancient site more than 7,000 miles away.
Machu Picchu, Peru. Approximately 50 miles northwest
of Cuzco, nestled high up in the Andes Mountains, these ancient
Inca ruins believed to have been a palace complex date
back to the 15th century.
Located in the southwestern corner of what archaeologists
contend was the site's main plaza is the Temple of Three
Windows, a stone hall 35 feet long and 14 feet wide,
containing three trapezoidal windows along one wall.
EDWIN BARNHART: Textbooks say that the windows of the Temple
of the Three Windows are aligned perfectly to let June solstice
sunrise come right in at a perfect angle, that the entire
building is oriented to receive the first light as it comes over
the mountains through those three windows at summer solstice.
NARRATOR: Some scholars believe the three windows
symbolize the Incan creation myth.
According to legend, the children of the sun god
Viracocha stepped into the world through three mysterious
openings in a mountain, and gave rise to the Incan civilization.
YOUNG: In the creation story of the Incan people, the
Children of the Sun, the Ayar Brothers, came down through
three portals, three windows, to begin the Incan people.
The temple at Machu Picchu, with three windows, is said to
represent this miraculous event.
COLLINS: These brothers were
the offspring of the god Viracocha that seemed to have
brought the first wisdom and knowledge and rudiments of
civilization to the peoples of South America.
And by simply looking through these three windows, the mind
could reach out and connect once more with these gods and
communicate with them.
NARRATOR: Some ancient astronaut theorists
believe the Incan creation story may be more
than simply mythology. They believe it could be a
description of stargate travel taking place thousands of years ago.
HENRY: When you read this story, you're instantly thinking
that this is some kind of a stargate they're describing, and
that these children of the sun, these advanced solar beings
possessed some kind of stargate technology that enabled them to
open these gateways. And maybe the Inca story is a
recollection of their utilization of this stargate technology.
WILCOCK: The Ayar Brothers
could be very real beings who came in, visited the Incans,
gave them the basis of their science, their technology, their
spoken language, all of the aspects of civilization, and
used a stargate portal technology on the side of a
mountain to get there.
NARRATOR: Was the great Inca Empire actually created by
extraterrestrials that traveled to Earth through a so-called
stargate? And might that explain why
ancient sites like the Ploutonion were so highly
guarded? Perhaps the answer has already
been discovered, not in the ancient world, but by modern science.
NARRATOR: Princeton, New Jersey. July 1935.
While collaborating at the Institute for Advanced Study,
physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen publish
a groundbreaking idea. They come to the conclusion that
the Theory of Relativity actually allows for shortcuts
across the space-time continuum. These paths, called
Einstein-Rosen bridges, more commonly known as wormholes,
connect two distant locations, making travel to the most remote
stars in the universe a possibility.
MICHAEL DENNIN: What you're talking about is a structure in
space that involves very, very strong bending of space and the
connecting of two different parts of space.
So, if you think of a piece of paper curved around and then
punched out and connected from one place to the other, that's
your basic wormhole.
NICK REDFERN: If we look at the distance from our planet
to the nearest star system, it's 4.2 light-years away.
That means you would have to
travel for 4.2 years at the speed of light,
which is 186,000 miles a second, just to get there.
The only way, really, to do that would be by something like a wormhole.
NARRATOR: While the idea of wormhole travel offers incredible possibilities,
realizing this technology poses immense challenges.
Scientists estimate that creating a traversable wormhole
would require a far greater amount of energy than anything
we can produce today. But there is a theory that
so-called "exotic matter" may provide the key to unlocking
wormhole travel.
DENNIN: What you need is matter with negative mass.
And we're only aware of matter with positive mass.
So, we call this exotic matter.
Not that it couldn't exist, we're just not aware of it yet.
But the bottom line is, it takes huge amounts of energy to create these.
Imagine taking all of Jupiter
now, its entire mass, and converting that to energy.
You know, you're talking millions and millions of times
more energy than you have in a nuclear bomb.
NARRATOR: Although most scientists say that we're a long
way from developing the technology to create wormholes...
if such a thing is even possible at all... there are those who
believe these celestial shortcuts already exist.
In 1991, scientists at Vanderbilt University proposed
that the chaos of the Big Bang not only created the universe,
but also may have caused the formation of mini wormholes
billions of years ago.
ROBERT FRISBEE: During the Big Bang, space-time itself was
being mashed together, expanded, contracted.
And one theory says that if you had something of the
size of the Himalaya Mountains, the space-time around it could
have been so badly stressed that it would mash this matter inside
its own event horizon. In the same way, you can imagine
space-time being mashed together and forming a mini wormhole.
NARRATOR: The possible result, according to
researchers, would be a wormhole about the size of an atom.
Once located, these mini wormholes could possibly be
stretched to create a traversable wormhole.
DENNIN: One of the things we know is that since the Big Bang,
the universe has been expanding, which means space-time, overall,
has been stretching. So, if when the universe is
quite small, you make a teeny little wormhole, as that whole
structure stretches, that whole wormhole stretches and grows
big as well. So, you could end up with a very
large wormhole now.
NARRATOR: If wormholes were
created in the earliest stages of the universe, is it possible,
as some ancient astronaut theorists suggest, that
celestial beings have already used them to travel to Earth in
the distant past?
JASON MARTELL: It's very possible that wormholes or
stargates opening and beings coming through them are a way to
explain how man was interacting with ancient gods.
NARRATOR: Chihuahua, Mexico.
Just 125 miles from the Texas border.
This vast archaeological site,
situated near the base of the Sierra Madre Occidental Mountain
range, dates back to 1,200 AD.
Known as both Paquim� and Casas Grandes, only part of the
extensive remains estimated to contain more than 2,000 clay
rooms have been excavated, revealing a well-planned city
containing plazas, stores, workshops and multi-story
residential buildings with an advanced water and sewage system.
BARNHART: Paquim� or Casas Grandes
is larger than any other site for hundreds of miles in
any direction. And there's an interesting
melding of different cultures.
In some aspects, it's a very Mesoamerican, or Aztec, city.
In other regards, it's a very Pueblo or Southwest culture city.
NARRATOR: At its height,
Paquim� is believed to have had a population of more than 10,000.
But this thriving pre-Columbian civilization declined
and mysteriously disappeared by the 16th century.
While no one knows exactly who
the inhabitants of Paquim� were, it is believed that their
descendants may be the indigenous people of the region,
known as the Tarahumara. The Tarahumara now live high up
in the canyons of the Sierra Madre, and much of what is known
about the ancient city of Paquim� comes from the stories
passed down to them from their ancestors.
According to their legends, Paquim� is a sacred place where
star people have appeared for centuries.
Described as light, tall and blond, the Tarahumara say these
mysterious beings emerged from doorways in the ruins.
LOGAN HAWKES: The Tarahumara truly believe that the star
people exist still today in the Chihuahua Desert.
They believe that these tall, blond people represent maybe the
heirs of the star people that first brought them
to this world.
They believe that there is a portal, and that these star
people use this portal today to transport to various places on
the Earth and off world as well.
NARRATOR: Throughout the architecture of Paquim� are
hundreds of uniquely T-shaped openings, openings that closely
resemble an ancient doorway more than 4,000 miles away in Southern Peru.
Here, perched high in the Andes Mountains, this shallow T-shaped
opening called the "Doorway of Amaru Muru," is surrounded by
many legends describing it as an active portal that transports
beings both into and out of this world.
COLLINS: This could be a coincidence if it weren't for
the fact that at Paquim�, there are strange stories of the
appearance of these Caucasian-like beings.
And there are very similar stories to do with this gate of
the gods in Peru.
WILCOCK: It's possible that
this does represent a stargate location in which
extraterrestrial humans are seen as coming and going during
certain opportune points in the year when the stargate becomes active.
NARRATOR: Considering the similar doorways and legends of
otherworldly beings at Paquim� and Amaru Muru, is it possible
these ancient sites were built by extraterrestrials as
stargates? Some ancient astronaut theorists
say that not only were stargates present at places like Paquim�
and Amaru Muru in the distant past, but that there may be
functioning stargates here on Earth even today.
NARRATOR: The Sargasso Sea. Stretching 700 miles wide and
2,000 miles long, this strange body of water is completely
isolated in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean.
It is a sea without shores, surrounded by some of the
strongest currents in the world. And due to a number of
unexplained incidents that have occurred here, it has earned the
nicknames Sea of Lost Ships, the Calms of Death, and the Sea of Fear.
And curiously, although the waters around it are violent,
the Sargasso Sea itself is calm.
YOUNG: The water is unusually blue... mysterious, as if the
currents don't affect this one area, as if the winds stopped
or as if time stands still.
ROBERT SCHOCH: Back in the time of sailing ships,
if sailing ships went into this area,
they could not necessarily get out, and they were seen as
sort of being trapped by the Sargasso Sea.
TSOUKALOS: Boats will be found perfectly intact there,
but the crew will have disappeared without a trace.
Now, why would that be? Because it's strange, since the
Sargasso Sea is known for its calm waters.
NARRATOR: Perhaps the oldest known and most famous
disappearance reported from the Sargasso Sea occurred in August
1840 when a merchant ship called the Rosalie was traveling from
Germany to Cuba.
According to the London Times, when it was discovered drifting
aimlessly, the vessel was completely abandoned, although
perfectly intact with the sails still set.
What happened to the Rosalie remains a mystery, but similar
occurrences have continued to plague the Sargasso Sea for centuries.
MIKE BARA: In 1881, a ship by the name of the Ellen Austin
found a derelict schooner in the Sargasso Sea.
They put a crew aboard it, and sailed in tandem back towards
London for several days.
About two days later, the schooner was found to be sailing
erratically, and when it was boarded again, that crew had
also disappeared, absolutely into thin air.
It was as if the people were simply beamed out of it.
WILCOCK: It is also interesting to note that the
Sargasso Sea is directly in contact with the area we call
the Bermuda Triangle.
There may be some type of stargate or portal activation in this area.
NARRATOR: Could the reports
of strange disappearances occurring in the Sargasso Sea,
and also in the Bermuda Triangle that overlaps this body of
water, be explained by the presence of a stargate?
Ancient astronaut theorists believe further evidence can be
found deep within one of North America's largest lakes.
Lake Michigan. Stretching across this 22,300-
square-mile body of water... from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, to
Ludington and Benton Harbor, Michigan... is another mysterious
area known as the Michigan Triangle.
Like the Sargasso Sea, this portion of the massive
freshwater lake has been associated with bizarre and
puzzling disappearances.
BARA: In 1937, there was a
freighter named the McFarland which passed through
the Michigan Triangle. The captain of the ship went to
his cabin to get some sleep, told his second mate to come and
awaken him at a specific time. When the second mate knocked on
the door, there was no answer. The door was locked from the inside.
They broke in, and the captain had simply disappeared.
None of the portholes were open. None of the windows were open.
There was no way for the captain to have gotten out of the ship.
GEORGE NOORY: They never could find the guy.
Did he jump off the ship? Who knows?
But the ship was exactly in this triangle in Lake Michigan.
NARRATOR: But ships aren't the only crafts affected by this
area of Lake Michigan. There are accounts of as many as
40 planes that have disappeared in the Michigan Triangle.
In 1950, 13 years after the captain of the McFarland went
missing, Northwest Airlines Flight 2501, carrying 55
passengers and three crew, disappeared as it passed over
the Michigan Triangle. The wreckage has never been
discovered, and investigations continue to this day.
BARA: No wreckage was ever found.
The families have been despondent over it.
They continue to look for the wreckage.
There's a monument to them on the shores of Lake Michigan, but
not a trace... not a belt buckle, not a wallet, not a chair...
nothing from the aircraft has ever been found.
And the area was searched for six days afterwards.
It's been searched extensively by salvagers in the decades
since, and no one has ever found a thing.
NOORY: Ships have been there... they've disappeared.
Airplanes have flown into the region... they've disappeared.
REDFERN: These aircraft and ships are just gone.
Now, for me, the very fact that they are totally vanished, that
makes me think that possibly they've been sucked into some
form of wormhole and unfortunately get trapped on the other side.
NARRATOR: Could the murky waters of Lake Michigan actually
be hiding the entrance to a wormhole, as some researchers
suggest? Might that explain why there has
been such peculiar phenomenon here, including countless
sightings of strange unidentified flying objects,
both overhead and coming from below the surface?
BARA: There have been witnesses that have actually
seen green glowing disks fly up out of the lake.
They've seen blue spherical objects fly into the lake.
WILCOCK: Gateways through space and time will have a
luminous quality. They will appear as spherical
formations of plasma. It seems that certain areas of
water are often where these portals are naturally forming.
It's possible that extraterrestrials may have been
accessing that area and, in fact, it may still be active
today, thus accounting for these UFO sightings and all the
bizarre disappearances.
CHILDRESS: These areas are very inaccessible.
The whole concept of some of these stargates and portals
being actually underwater makes a lot of sense.
HENRY: It's possible that there's a network of underwater
portals spread throughout the world.
These portals could be accessed by extraterrestrial beings who
use them to come and go from the stars.
NARRATOR: Could there be stargates hidden deep within our
lakes and oceans that extraterrestrials might still be
using, even to this day? And, if so, might humans one day
be able to access these stargates as well?
Some scientists believe that not only will we travel through
stargates which already exist but that we may even be close to
creating them ourselves.
NARRATOR: Cal State Fullerton, 2013.
Here, in a small lab at this public university, physicist Jim
Woodward conducts experiments that he believes will one day
change the way we travel through space.
JIM WOODWARD: I was primarily interested in trying to figure
out how to make stuff go fast. And to do that, you need to
master the problem of propulsion.
To master the problem of propulsion, to achieve speeds
that are a significant fraction of the speed of light, you have
to be able to manipulate inertia.
And so that's how I got interested in gravity and inertia.
What I've found is that it
may indeed be possible to get around space-time quickly.
NARRATOR: Dr. Woodward's work seeks to prove a controversial
theory known as Mach's principle, which says that there
is a direct relationship between the motion of mass here on Earth
and that of distant matter that exists throughout the universe.
Woodward theorizes that if this proves true, it could be the key
to unlocking stargate travel. The idea was first introduced in
1883 by Austrian physicist Ernst Mach.
WOODWARD: Mach's principle, at the simplest level, is the
assertion that when you push on an object, the reason why it
pushes back on you is because of the gravitational action of the
most distant matter in the universe acting through the object.
And so the matter out there,
far, far away, is the stuff that determines the inertial
properties of objects locally.
FRISBEE: Mach's principle basically says that all the
stars, all the planets, all the galaxies out there do, in fact,
have an effect on us here.
And the reason they do is because of the way they warp space-time.
So even though you may not see it,
the world around you is determined by what's going on
potentially light-years away from you.
NARRATOR: Dr. Woodward's initial interest in Mach's
principle was not to create wormholes but to revolutionize
space travel by creating propulsion without expelling
matter from the craft.
MICHAEL DENNIN: Our standard way of thinking of propulsion is
we send stuff out the back of something.
So, you have a rocket... it sends hot gasses out the back.
You have a jet engine... it sucks air in from the front and shoots
it out the back. So almost all of our propulsion
systems are that basic principle: throw something out
the back, you move forward. The Mach principle almost
think about it maybe as a surf wave.
Right, you're riding along on the wave and that's moving you forward.
You don't actually have to send
anything out back. In this sort of effect, the idea
is essentially to create a wave in space that you move forward on.
NARRATOR: But Dr. Woodward discovered
that Mach's principle could have implications beyond
just propulsion. He believes it holds the key to
actually creating traversable wormholes, giving us the ability
to travel to the most remote corners of the universe.
The experiments suggest that if scientists could somehow
separate... or decouple... ordinary mass from the influence
of this distant matter, huge amounts of negative energy could
potentially be exposed.
WOODWARD: In principle, you
should be able to engineer devices that will enable you to
screen matter from the influence of gravity of distant matter in
the universe. And if you can do that, you can
make stargates.
NARRATOR: While the existence of Mach's principle is still
debated in the scientific community, Dr. Woodward believes
his experiments prove its validity.
By running electricity through a stack of lead zirconium titanate
crystals known as PZTs, Woodward accelerates and temporarily
changes the rest mass of the device he calls the Mach Effect Thruster.
If Mach's principle holds true,
when the mass of the Mach Thruster fluctuates, it will
interact with the distant matter in the universe, resulting in a
small amount of measurable thrust.
WOODWARD: All of this is happening through a
gravitational connection between this local device and the rest
of the matter in the universe. We have the Mach Effect Thruster
here mounted in the Faraday cage, and it's located on the
end of the beam like so. The reason why you put the
thrust balance in a vacuum chamber is because you're trying
to detect exceedingly small thrust on the order of a
micronewton. This display is of data taken
over a period of one day. The red trace is thrust.
The dark blue trace is the power being delivered to the device.
This is the clearest evidence for the Mach effect.
This large thrust transient, when the center frequency is
turned on, followed by a thrust transient when it is turned off.
None of that thrust should be there if there aren't any Mach effects.
NARRATOR: Could Dr. Woodward's experiments really be
proof that Mach's principle is true and wormhole travel is a
real scientific possibility? If so, might we be able to
create actual stargates in the near future?
WOODWARD: If you're willing to devote significant resources
to trying to do this, I would think that you should be able to
build prototype very crude stargates within a decade or two.
CHILDRESS: Once we have this concept and, in theory, could
develop the technology to move through wormholes, it's only
natural that we would think that ancient extraterrestrials and
alien societies would have also thought of this thousands of years ago.
NARRATOR: Does modern research into wormholes really
suggest that stargates have a basis in scientific reality?
And might more advanced alien beings have used this knowledge
to travel to Earth in the distant past?
Some ancient astronaut theorists say the strongest proof that
extraterrestrials arrived here through stargates may lie in a
3,200-year-old Egyptian temple and a mysterious hieroglyph
carved on its wall.
NARRATOR: Abydos, Egypt. 300 miles south of Cairo.
This 5,000-year-old archaeological site near the
Nile River was a burial place for the first kings of Egypt.
The ancient city was a major center of religious pilgrimage,
where Osiris, the god of the underworld, was revered.
COLLINS: Osiris was the god that was said to have brought
wisdom and knowledge to those who preceded the dynastic Egyptians.
Abydos was a place that people came to communicate with Osiris.
BAUVAL: It was considered the place where the god Osiris had been buried.
Osiris had been the originator of the pharaonic civilization.
He was the first pharaoh, if you like.
The myth is that Osiris was cut in several pieces by his evil
brother, and the head was found and kept at Abydos.
PHILLIPS: Abydos was said to have been the burial place of Osiris.
That this is where he was
supposed to physically stand guard between this world and the next.
NARRATOR: Construction on the largest of the temples at Abydos
began in the 13th century BC by the Pharaoh Seti, and is
dedicated to Osiris.
Depicted on the wall of the
temple's Osiris Chapel is a mysterious hieroglyph that some
researchers believe represents the vessel that held the head of
the powerful god.
BAUVAL: The relic of Abydos... it is this sort of bell-shaped object.
And on top of it is usually two plumes.
HENRY: When we look at the hieroglyphs of the head of
Osiris, what we see is something that appears to be very
technological or mechanical.
It looks like some kind of an ancient antenna type of a device.
NARRATOR: Might this depiction of Osiris really
represent an ancient technological device?
One so important that the Egyptians memorialized it here,
on the walls of this sacred temple?
And if so, what was its purpose?
Some ancient astronaut theorists believe more clues can be found
on the opposite wall of the chapel, where Pharaoh Seti is
shown transforming into this Osiris device
while traveling on a solar barge.
COLLINS: The solar barge was
a vehicle that was able to make that journey from this world to the next.
So, in other words, in many ways, it was actually a boat to the stars.
WILCOCK: But the shape of the solar barge bares a curious
similarity to the Einstein-Rosen bridge.
So, the solar barge could be a primitive depiction of people
watching a luminous stargate appearing and then it being used
as a teleportation device.
VINCENZO MACRINO: On the depiction of the solar barge,
the head of Pharaoh Seti appears to be emerging from that portal.
Perhaps Seti was a time traveler utilizing just such technology
given to him by the ancient gods.
HENRY: It suggests that Seti utilized this ancient technology
to turn himself into a star being so that he could travel
the stargates and wormholes for eternity.
CHILDRESS: Maybe gods lik Osiris were actually
extraterrestrials using this stargate technology to come to
Earth and teach mankind.
NARRATOR: Could these hieroglyphs really be depicting
a device that allowed Pharaoh Seti to travel across time and
space? Is it possible that the
Egyptians... and other ancient cultures around the world...
really encountered extraterrestrials who came to
Earth through stargates?
TSOUKALOS: Just because our scientists of today haven't
quite figured it out yet doesn't mean that some other
civilization thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands of
years older, hasn't figured it out either.
Remember, the universe is infinite, which means that there
are infinite possibilities.
CHILDRESS: We may have known in the past what was going
on, and about these portals and wormholes.
And that is why stories like astral travel and stargates and
inter-dimensional voyages are something that we've been
hearing about for thousands of years.
And we're just now rediscovering it for ourselves, this knowledge
given to us by the extraterrestrials.
HENRY: It's possible that this is the next step in human evolution.
It will represent a new
beginning for humankind; and perhaps this was always the plan
from the ancient times. We were created by these ancient
gods who came here in stargates and wormholes, and they intended
for us to one day join them in the stars.
NARRATOR: Could Earth really be home to stargates that link
us to distant points throughout the universe?
Pathways that extraterrestrials have used for thousands of
years, and that we are only beginning to rediscover?
And if we ever do unlock the key to stargate travel, will we
discover that we've been connected to alien civilizations all along?
