1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Unearthly inspirations.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:10,000
Compelling ordinary people to perform extraordinary acts.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:20,000
They've thought it best to use members of the human population

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,000
to communicate their message.

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Heavenly visitations.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Inspiring everything from war to peace.

7
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
They could have imparted that information to Joan of Arc

8
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:42,000
to give her the confidence that ultimately led her military campaign to victory.

9
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:52,000
And close encounters that leave behind mysterious clues to our past and our future.

10
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
I thought it's not going to come out to anything.

11
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
And then something that appeared to be a real message regarding aliens emerged.

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Millions of people around the world believe we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings.

13
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000
What if it were true?

14
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Did ancient aliens really shape our history?

15
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:21,000
And if so, have they been helped by individuals among us?

16
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,000
Chosen to communicate important messages.

17
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Rendlesham Forest

18
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Suffolk County, England

19
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,000
80 miles northeast of London

20
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:18,000
During the Cold War, more than 12,000 American officers and enlisted men

21
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:25,000
were stationed at two air force bases on the forest's northern and southern edges.

22
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge

23
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,000
Shortly after midnight on December 26, 1980,

24
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:44,000
military radar detected an unidentified flying object.

25
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:49,000
And there were civilian reports of strange flickering lights in the sky.

26
00:02:54,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Within minutes, military policemen including Staff Sergeant James Peniston

27
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:07,000
and Airman First Class John Burroughs were sent into the woods to investigate.

28
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,000
What they encountered was something the experienced servicemen had never seen before.

29
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:23,000
By the dissipating light, I started seeing a silhouette of a triangular craft.

30
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:32,000
It was completely black in color except for these occasional bits of blue and orange light and yellow light running through it.

31
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:39,000
There was blue lights, there was like an orange spear above it.

32
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:45,000
There was a white light that would come out underneath it and then there was like a misty orange haze.

33
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:57,000
In his report, Sergeant Peniston described the strange craft's dimensions as roughly 6.5 feet tall with 9 foot sides.

34
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000
He also noted unusual markings, raised symbols similar to Egyptian hieroglyphs.

35
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:10,000
I was expecting to find, I don't know, USAF, something like that.

36
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:16,000
And what I find is a pictorial glyphs making no sense at all.

37
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000
Then I was running my hand over the side of the craft. It was very warm to touch.

38
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:30,000
Upon touching the craft, the 26-year-old serviceman claimed he received a strange and powerful vision.

39
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000
It's one to zeroes and one to ones. It just makes no sense.

40
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I take my hands off it, it stops. And then there was a bright flash of light.

41
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:57,000
And then at that point, whatever it was, appeared to go up in the air and take off and go back towards the coast.

42
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,000
And we didn't have any more contact.

43
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:12,000
Peniston and Burroughs were ordered by the deputy-based commander to treat the alleged sighting as if it had never happened.

44
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Still, after three decades, James Peniston remains haunted by his strange vision.

45
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,000
So much so that he felt compelled to keep a written record of it.

46
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:30,000
A record he kept locked away for nearly 30 years.

47
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:37,000
It's like someone was holding a picture of this zeroes and ones.

48
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,000
I could see it in my mind's eye, okay? So I recorded those one after another.

49
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Whether they mean, I don't know.

50
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Could the strange numbers from James Peniston's vision be some type of extraterrestrial code?

51
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:04,000
If so, Peniston would not be the first to claim to have received messages from other worldly visitors.

52
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:23,000
In fact, history is filled with accounts of people compelled into action by contact with what they claim to be an extraterrestrial, divine, or supernatural being.

53
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Abraham, Muhammad, and St. Paul are described as having been inspired by visits from God.

54
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:49,000
Moses, Confucius, and the legendary Cambodian figure Priyapishnokar are said to have met strange visitors who passed along moral codes and philosophies.

55
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,000
God chose them because of their integrity, because of their faith.

56
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Me and there were leaders that God had chosen to put in a certain position.

57
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:07,000
People respected those leaders, and people knew that they were people of God.

58
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,000
According to the ancient national hypothesis, visions are not divine at all.

59
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:23,000
They were, in fact, visits by extraterrestrials where our ancestors thought it was a vision, but it never was.

60
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:32,000
The person didn't quite comprehend that he or she was visited by flesh and blood extraterrestrials.

61
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Perhaps the best-known example of a man receiving specific instructions from an extraterrestrial source can be found in the story of Moses.

62
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:54,000
According to the biblical book of Exodus, Moses first encountered God in the form of a burning bush.

63
00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:06,000
It was here that he was given his mission to deliver the Hebrew people out of slavery in Egypt and into the Promised Land.

64
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Later, at Mount Sinai, after he had safely brought the Jews into the desert, he was handed the Ten Commandments, as laws given to man directly by God.

65
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:32,000
Eventually, these moral codes were the foundation of a whole worldwide religion.

66
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:43,000
But to ancient astronaut theorists, the story of Moses may be interpreted as not only a divine, but also an alien encounter.

67
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:52,000
According to the Old Testament, Moses went up on Mount Sinai to meet with, quote-unquote, God.

68
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:03,000
And I quote, and they saw the God of Israel, and there was, under his feet, as it were, a paved work of sapphire, stone.

69
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000
And he was like the very heavens in its radiating clarity.

70
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:17,000
And my question is, does something like this exist or was it some sort of a misunderstood metallic ramp?

71
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,000
But it gets even better.

72
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Moses actually describes Earth seen from outer space.

73
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:38,000
The quote is, thereupon I saw the whole round of the Earth at once the depth of the Earth and the vast altitudes of the heavens.

74
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,000
I mean, here he describes Earth as being round.

75
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:48,000
At the time, that should have not been known, according to mainstream scientists.

76
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Is it possible that Moses was inspired by a force, not only from the heavens, but from another world?

77
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:06,000
If so, is it possible that other divine inspirations have also had otherworldly origins?

78
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Puccini said that his great opera, Madame a Butterfly, was from God, that he wrote it down, but it came directly from a divine source.

79
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:27,000
William Blake, whose entire opus, his writing and painting was based on repeated angelic visitations.

80
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Brahm said that his music came from something beyond himself.

81
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,000
He was the one who wrote it down, but he had to give credit to something beyond himself.

82
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Could great works of art, music, literature and religion really have been gifts to humanity from other worlds?

83
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,000
If so, then why weren't these gifts given directly from aliens to man?

84
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,000
Instead of being communicated through human intermediaries?

85
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Perhaps an answer, like many alien messages, can be found in one of the oldest and holiest places on Earth.

86
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:25,000
If, as ancient astronaut theorists believe, extraterrestrial beings have been contacting us throughout the centuries, then what are they trying to tell us?

87
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:34,000
It appears again and again that here on Earth we're dealing with something that could be called the hidden directorate,

88
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:40,000
a directing force of intelligent beings who may even be our progenitors,

89
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:47,000
and have been working with humanity ever since we began evolving on this planet,

90
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:54,000
and will intervene at key points to try to nudge our development in a certain direction.

91
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Why were some of our ancestors told to construct a building?

92
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,000
Or to build an ark?

93
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Personally, I think to ensure mankind's survival.

94
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,000
There are stories of malevolent gods, of malevolent extraterrestrials,

95
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:29,000
but by and large, the stories that we have from ancient times, the gods were actually very benevolent,

96
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:37,000
and these extraterrestrials have helped us throughout the millennia to survive to this day.

97
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:49,000
One of the oldest and most widespread stories of divine or unearthly intervention in human events can be found in the many great flood myths.

98
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000
There are flood myths all over the world, not just in the Bible.

99
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:00,000
You can find them all throughout South America. You can find them in Native American traditions.

100
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,000
You can find them in the Celtic traditions, the legend of the Ragnarok, the Deluge.

101
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,000
It's in Asia. Native Africans have flood myths.

102
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:17,000
So the story of Noah is not an isolated event that only happens in the Bible. It's part of a bigger story.

103
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:26,000
The oldest documented flood myth is the story of Udnapishtim in the epic of Gilgamesh.

104
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:34,000
The ancient Sumerian tale was discovered on a series of clay tablets dating back thousands of years.

105
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Udnapishtim has a story which is almost identical to the story of Noah. There's only a few slight differences.

106
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:53,000
In the Udnapishtim story, the beings that spoke to him and warned him about this spoke through the walls of his house.

107
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:59,000
And his house then became the craft that was used to evacuate.

108
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Like Noah, Udnapishtim collected every type of animal in anticipation of the flood.

109
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:14,000
But could it have really been possible to collect every type of animal and fit them all in a single craft?

110
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Or might the Ark have been a metaphor for another, much more advanced and extraterrestrial form of transportation device?

111
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000
The Ark in the Sumerian story is shaped like a cube.

112
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:47,000
We now have physicists that are developing hyperdimensional physics models in which they're actually plotting out the mathematics of how these higher dimensions are constructed and what they look like.

113
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,000
This is called a tesseract.

114
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,000
A tesseract is a cube within a cube.

115
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:15,000
So it's possible that the cube that was referred to in the original Epic of Gilgamesh could be describing a Stargate portal that used this type of hyperdimensional geometry as a way to ensure that Udnapishtim and all the animals and the people that he saved wouldn't be here on Earth at all.

116
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,000
And that's how they were able to survive the deluge.

117
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:34,000
Around the world, many churches, temples and other holy structures are said to have been divinely inspired by angels, gods and even beings from other worlds.

118
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,000
But why?

119
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,000
To honor and praise a supreme being?

120
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,000
Or might there be another purpose?

121
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,000
Angkor Wat, Cambodia.

122
00:15:48,000 --> 00:16:03,000
In the 16th century, one of the first Westerners to see this elaborate temple, Portuguese monk Antonio de Magdalena, described it as an extraordinary construction as like no other building in the world.

123
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:11,000
With each side measuring nearly a mile long, Angkor Wat remains the planet's largest religious structure.

124
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Although mainstream archaeologists believe Angkor Wat was built in the 12th century by King Surya Varmand II as a state temple and capital city, Cambodian legends maintain it was built as far back as 600 BC by Priya Pishnokar, the offspring of a commoner father and a mother who came from the heavens.

125
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:48,000
When grown, Priya was said to be abducted up into a flying palace by a group of other worldly beings, led by the god Indra.

126
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:56,000
The message Priya received was to be a leader for his people and a teacher.

127
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:04,000
He was taught all these different things when he was up at Indra's heaven, this flying palace up in the sky.

128
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:20,000
When he came back to earth after his long education, Priya was basically the chosen one to teach his people in the ways of the world and the universe.

129
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:36,000
According to the myths, Priya was also commissioned to build Angkor Wat, not just as a sanctuary of peace and healing, but as a landing zone for the sky beings who taught him, referred to as the glowing ones.

130
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:47,000
The way it is described, it says that no real tools were actually used, but just magical water.

131
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:55,000
He was able to pour this magical water onto stone and after a while it would harden into place.

132
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:02,000
Magical water. Come on, there is no such thing as magical water.

133
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:08,000
So my question is, what type of technology was used?

134
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:17,000
Priya was able to build this magnificent city with ease. That's what the ancient texts are saying.

135
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Angkor Wat was more than likely built by the hands of human beings, but the architectural plan of sophistication to lay out that type of complex could not have been engineered by human beings alone at that time.

136
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:50,000
Six thousand miles northwest of Angkor Wat, a 15th century French girl also reportedly received a divine inspiration, not to build, but to lead men in war.

137
00:18:51,000 --> 00:19:05,000
Orléans, France. In 1429, the city was besieged by the English during the Hundred Years' War. The survival of the French military and government appeared doomed.

138
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:27,000
Then, 17-year-old Joan of Arc traveled to Château Chino, where she persuaded the local leaders that the saints Michael, Catherine and Margaret had visited her and told her that her presence in Orléans would inspire the French army to break the siege.

139
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:46,000
The Joan of Arc story is a fabulous tale of a vision really affecting history in a practical and concrete way. France was in bad trouble. This sensitive soul, a very young girl, has the vision of saints that come to her and tell her to lead an army and free a city.

140
00:19:47,000 --> 00:20:02,000
She does so. She also has some prophecy from these visitations, and she's able to end a siege of a major city and make major contributions to history, all because these saints came to her in a vision.

141
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:15,000
While Joan served primarily as a military figurehead, she also designed new artillery tactics and repeatedly outsmarted the more experienced English commanders.

142
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000
But did her mysterious visions actually come from heaven?

143
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:32,000
Or might the French teenager have received, as ancient astronaut theorists suggest, a type of advanced extraterrestrial knowledge?

144
00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:07,000
So Joan of Arc was then contacted by a luminous extraterrestrial being that could have imparted that information to Joan of Arc to give her the confidence that ultimately led her military campaign to victory.

145
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:19,000
If extraterrestrial beings have inspired and affected human events, then is it really, as some suggest, to help improve humanity?

146
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Or could there be another, perhaps darker and more sinister agenda?

147
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,000
Hisserlik, Northwestern Turkey

148
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:37,000
More than 3,000 years ago, this was the walled city of Troy.

149
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:47,000
According to Greek mythology, Troy was the site of a horrific war between the Trojans and the Achaeans that was made by the Turks.

150
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:54,000
Thousands upon thousands of people died, and the city of Troy is totally destroyed.

151
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:03,000
It's hard to imagine when you read stories like this of gods asking people to go to war, do things they wouldn't want to do.

152
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:11,000
It's hard to imagine when you read stories like this of gods asking people to go to war, do things they wouldn't want to do.

153
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,000
It's hard to imagine that they want what's best for us.

154
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:24,000
In my opinion, extraterrestrials are just like humans.

155
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:30,000
So of course, extraterrestrials also would take sides.

156
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:35,000
They would take sides with certain people and make enemies with other people.

157
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,000
But when bad things happen, they're not going to take sides with other people.

158
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:49,000
When bad things happen to good people, does it suggest that alien visitors are capable of having evil intent?

159
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:57,000
Or does it simply suggest the presence of bad aliens, as well as good ones?

160
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:05,000
You look back through these stories, some of which have to do with actual historical events that led to blood, guts, destruction.

161
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,000
And you say to yourselves, maybe they don't want what's best for us.

162
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:14,000
Maybe their values and concerns have absolutely nothing to do with ours.

163
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:23,000
Just like there are good people and bad people here on Earth, there's good and bad extraterrestrials out there.

164
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Not everything is hunky-dory out there. Good and evil permeates the entire universe.

165
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Yin and yang, there's a balance.

166
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I'm not sure it's always that cut and draw.

167
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:42,000
In the book of Exodus, some translations say an angel killed all the firstborn Egyptians.

168
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Some say that the Lord, and I put that in quotations, slaughtered the firstborn Egyptian sons.

169
00:23:50,000 --> 00:24:00,000
Hard to reconcile that, at least in my perspective, that a benevolent, loving God would have angels to slaughter innocents, to slaughter kids.

170
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:15,000
Half a world away from the Mediterranean, across the Atlantic, another massacre of innocents was said to have been directed by the gods.

171
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Tenok Delan, Mexico. 500 years ago, this was the capital of the Aztec Empire.

172
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:37,000
During the 15th century AD, the high priest, Talak Khalil, claims to have received a command from the gods in the form of a dream.

173
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,000
His people were to perform human sacrifices.

174
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000
The Aztecs are like so many other civilizations on this planet.

175
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,000
For them, dreams were the primary means of communication with the other world.

176
00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:00,000
So interpreting the dreams was the central thing which the high priest had to do.

177
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Now the question is, why did he do this? Is this just something Talak Khalil invented?

178
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Or is it really the fact that he had a dream whereby his new and brutal regime somehow had to be imposed upon his people?

179
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:31,000
But if, as ancient astronaut theorists maintain, there are malevolent gods, or evil extraterrestrials, does that suggest we have something to fear?

180
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Or might the evil be found not in the message, but with the messenger?

181
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:51,000
The possibility that some messages that were sent by extraterrestrials have been received and misinterpreted is fairly large.

182
00:25:51,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Because our ancestors thought that these messages were sent by god-like beings, by divine creatures, which they never were.

183
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:15,000
Now there's quite a bit of evidence, even contemporary, of people committing murders or about to commit murders who believe that either God spoke to them or something else.

184
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:20,000
And we actually find in many cases that this is not the case, that this is delusion.

185
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:29,000
In the Bible's Book of Genesis, God instructs Abraham to kill his only son, Isaac.

186
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:40,000
But was this command really given by God? Or might Abraham have received multiple messages from more than one being?

187
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:51,000
Might it actually be an origin, a sort of conversation whereby Abraham and Isaac are not subjected to one deity, but to more than one deity,

188
00:26:51,000 --> 00:27:00,000
giving them contradictory messages whereby one being might be saying, kill your son and the other being might be saying, don't kill your son.

189
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:07,000
Are we in fact maybe confronted with two warring civilizations or two warring tribes?

190
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:17,000
And I really do think that the gods, the extraterrestrials, knew 100% what they were doing.

191
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:25,000
Just like when we arrive on a different planet and we achieve instant god-like status, we'll use that to our advantage.

192
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:34,000
We're not going to say to them, oh no, no, no, we're like you, we'll say yes, you obey us or else.

193
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:38,000
And that is exactly what happened here on Earth 10,000 years ago.

194
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:51,000
For ancient astronaut theorists, one fact is certain. After contact is established, the fate of the human messenger is not always a pleasant one.

195
00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:00,000
After her capture by the English army, Joan of Arc burned at the stake as a heretic.

196
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:08,000
Saint Paul, who converted to Christianity after a divine apparition, was later executed by the Romans.

197
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:16,000
And Moses led his people through the desert for 40 years, but could not enter the Promised Land himself.

198
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:23,000
In time, God chose a particular person to do a particular job. You're always going to have opposition.

199
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Moses had opposition, you know, with Pharaoh. And Paul, of course, was stone.

200
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:34,000
Those outside instances, those forces that came against him, that was the burden, so to speak.

201
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Some people who might have received conceivable messages by extraterrestrials are at first fearful that they might have to upend their lives, or even worse, be called crazy.

202
00:28:52,000 --> 00:29:03,000
But could the fear of ridicule or death on the part of human messengers explain why there are not more alien messages that get transmitted?

203
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:17,000
Or might many of those who have experienced extraterrestrial contacts have closed their eyes or shut their ears simply because the truth may be too incredible to bear?

204
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Billions of people around the world consider holy books like the Bible and the Koran to be the Word of God.

205
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Hundreds of millions of Hindus view the Mahabharata as a guide to spiritual enlightenment, handed down by the God Lord Krishna himself.

206
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Each of these holy books contains religious principles in the form of philosophies, parables, and moral codes.

207
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:01,000
Messages from beyond our ordinary knowledge seem to come in a variety of forms.

208
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:08,000
A visitation, a dream, sometimes an object, a tablet, a golden plate, a book.

209
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:18,000
So it helps, a book is an ordinary object we are familiar with, and yet if it's seen as divinely inspired, we can take it as more than an ordinary book.

210
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:27,000
The great majority of mankind today regards the Bible, the Torah, and the Koran as the Word of God.

211
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:39,000
But is it possible that these books were nothing else but guiding books of how we should conduct our lives,

212
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:49,000
and that these moral codes were in fact given to us by extraterrestrials whom our ancestors thought were gods?

213
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,000
I don't think the Mahabharata is a work of fiction.

214
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:09,000
It's an actual history, and the history given in the Mahabharata includes not only actions of human beings on Earth,

215
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:20,000
it also includes actions of extraterrestrials on other planets and on this Earth in interaction with human beings here.

216
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Cultures all over the world believe deities and other non-human entities frequently communicated through intermediaries known as prophets.

217
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:41,000
In the Koran, it's written that God has sent over 100,000 prophets throughout history.

218
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:51,000
Many Native American cultures believed God spoke to them through shamans, much like the oracles of ancient Greece.

219
00:31:52,000 --> 00:32:05,000
An oracle is a person, but a person in some divine state, an altered state of some kind, who is able to hear the voices of the gods and then translate it into accessible human language.

220
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,000
But could the same phenomenon apply to Judeo-Christian religious texts?

221
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:20,000
Might biblical stories of angels and miracles actually be misinterpretations of ancient alien contact or inspiration?

222
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:34,000
The visitations or apparitions come to give some gift, to open the mind, to lead to a new perception, to lead to a new possibility, either a new artistic take on something or a new approach.

223
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Or a new plan for humanity?

224
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:45,000
Often we're trapped in some kind of thinking that needs to break beyond its known limits, but we're caught.

225
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:51,000
We are unable to see, to get a transcendent perspective, and that is what the visitation makes possible.

226
00:32:52,000 --> 00:33:03,000
If that is true, there might be additional evidence of alien contact by examining breakthroughs in the fields of astronomy, archaeology and physics.

227
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,000
Or perhaps what is arguably the most universal of all languages?

228
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,000
Mathematics

229
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Cambridge University, England, February 1913

230
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Mathematics professor Godfrey H. Hardy receives a letter containing complex mathematical theorems and formulas from 26-year-old Srinivasa Ramanujan of India.

231
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,000
The distinguished scholar is stunned by what he reads.

232
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:44,000
Hardy looks at these theorems and says, my God, we've never seen anything like this. This is mathematics of the highest order.

233
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:52,000
It's so convoluted and complex that nobody could have come up with this by their imagination. There has to be something here.

234
00:33:53,000 --> 00:34:09,000
An acknowledged genius and mathematical prodigy since childhood, Ramanujan was devoutly religious, and often claimed his breakthroughs were communicated to him in his dreams by the Hindu goddess, Namagiri.

235
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:18,000
In the decades since, his theorems have proved to be invaluable to those working in cutting-edge fields like string theory.

236
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:34,000
All of the science that we need to eventually be able to create portals, star-date travel, hyper-dimensional access mechanisms, levitation, teleportation, it all needs a mathematical foundation.

237
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:50,000
And the closest that we have right now is the Reminen equations that we've been able to decipher so far, which came to him directly from this goddess who appeared to him in dreams.

238
00:34:51,000 --> 00:35:06,000
Could Ramanujan have been telepathically receiving important information that might enable humans to build a portal or star-gate to other dimensions or alien worlds?

239
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:16,000
If so, why? What is the ultimate purpose of what some believe to be alien communications?

240
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:40,000
October 2010. For nearly 30 years after their alleged encounter with an unidentified aircraft in England's Rendlesham Forest, retired military airmen James Peniston and John Burroughs rarely spoke to each other about the incident.

241
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Yet both men remain haunted by their experience.

242
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:54,000
That was the life-changing event that happened out there. The problem with life-changing events, they affect you for your life.

243
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:03,000
I want to know what it was. I think there's people out there in our government have a better idea, and they could tell us what happened to us.

244
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:08,000
But I don't know how to tell you for sure what it was and where it came from.

245
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:24,000
Shortly after his reported encounter, James Peniston had felt compelled to write down the long and complex numerical sequence of ones and zeros he claimed he saw when he touched the spacecraft.

246
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,000
But were they really just random numbers?

247
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:38,000
I was getting this not from memory, but this mental picture of these codes written out, this binary type code.

248
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,000
So I tried to suppress it, but I just had this urge to put these down.

249
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:53,000
We now realize that the best way of communicating with an ancient civilization is the binary code.

250
00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:01,000
If we know this, then obviously anybody else in the universe will know this as well.

251
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:16,000
And when we know that our ancestors, either on their own or with some help from strangers, knew this as well, then we realize that really the binary code is the best if not the only means of alien communication.

252
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:32,000
For three decades, Peniston kept the mysterious numerical sequence hidden between the covers of his Air Force notebook. There they remained, unexamined and undicipered.

253
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:41,000
I was scared to death. I was sitting there going, OK, there's something wrong with you, Jim. You're not right. You're not thinking straight.

254
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:51,000
The stuff is so bizarre. You can't tell anybody this. They'll take your gun away from you. They'll kick you out. All those things were in jeopardy.

255
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:59,000
That's what I was thinking about at that moment, that if I started telling anybody exactly what I was thinking, that would be the end of it.

256
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:10,000
The refusal of the call is probably an experience all thoughtful people have. That is, there is some project, some task, some mission.

257
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:18,000
We waver. We doubt ourselves and don't immediately respond to our destiny. This is not a good thing.

258
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:33,000
After eventually leaving the Air Force and returning to the United States, Peniston found he was being haunted by persistent dreams.

259
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:42,000
Both about his experience in the forest and the meaning of the mysterious numerical message he received.

260
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:55,000
What do they mean? I don't know. I've never had them analyzed or anything like that. I mean, we were out there doing our jobs with a situation that we've never handled before.

261
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:15,000
In October 2010, Peniston entrusted his six handwritten pages of ones and zeros to a computer programmer. He hoped the apparently random series of numbers could be translated into something resembling a readable message.

262
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:26,000
Could someone write out six pages of binary? Well, probably not. They would need some help or they would have to be some kind of savant or super calculator.

263
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:38,000
Sort of transcribing it into my computer to see what I might find. I thought it's not going to come out to anything. And then something that appeared to be a real message regarding aliens emerged.

264
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:48,000
To his astonishment, after plugging the numbers into a computer, a fragmentary sentence emerged. It stated,

265
00:39:50,000 --> 00:40:02,000
exploration of humanity continuous for planetary advance. Another portion of the message revealed what appeared to be navigational coordinates.

266
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Could this now decoded series of numbers actually be the evidence the human race has been searching for?

267
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,000
Proof that we are not alone.

268
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:27,000
Exploration of humanity is that for good or for evil. Planetary advancement is that advancing the human race as many have theorized.

269
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,000
Where's that the advancement of some armada coming to conquer Earth?

270
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:45,000
As for the navigational coordinates, amazingly, they point to the geographic location of a mysterious sunken island known in Celtic legend as High Brazil.

271
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:55,000
It was said to be the home of a civilization thousands of years ahead of its time. It is also occasionally referred to as the other Atlantis.

272
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:04,000
High Brazil was believed to be a mysterious land in which the people living there had a high degree of civilization.

273
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:14,000
They used sound technology and vibrational healing technology. They were highly ethical, highly moral people.

274
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:23,000
And they considered everyone over in Europe to be barbarians and they did not want to mix with them at all. They enjoyed the isolation and the seclusion.

275
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:34,000
But if the strange binary message in Peniston's notebook lists the coordinates of High Brazil, what does it mean?

276
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:48,000
They may be ancient astronauts and the Rendlesham Forest incident could have been them coming back, finding a person who was ready to receive the message, who had the right tuning to receive the message,

277
00:41:48,000 --> 00:42:01,000
to let us know that the people we call the High Brazilians are still out there and they want us to be ready to accept in the future some sort of open Congress and communication between our world and theirs.

278
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:09,000
There's certain incidents going out there, I know where you don't remember and I don't remember, but there's certain things together we don't remember.

279
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:16,000
Right, well even Ed said that he remembers me pulling my weapon and we all blacked out and I don't remember that.

280
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:33,000
In December 2010, James Peniston along with John Burroughs planned to return to Rendlesham Forest and to the exact same site where they claimed to have encountered a mysterious craft 30 years earlier.

281
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:41,000
We're both compelled to go back. Being in that area will cause us to have total recall of what happened in December of 1980.

282
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:48,000
I can't explain it, just like I couldn't explain it the first time, but I think we're going to have a better understanding of what we need to do from there.

283
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:54,000
Could there be more? Yeah, there could be more.

284
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:05,000
If Peniston and Burroughs do return to the English Forest where they claim to have had a close encounter, what will they find there?

285
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,000
More clues? Even more messages?

286
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:22,000
And what if the mysterious binary code found in Peniston's notebook does the phrase exploration of humanity continuous for planetary advance?

287
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:36,000
And the strange geographic coordinates that point to a lost island really provide evidence that we are being visited and perhaps studied by visitors from another world.

288
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:47,000
Could this event really be the latest in a long line of alien encounters that stretches back to antiquity to the time of the gods?

289
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:55,000
If so, are they helping us or are they preparing us to help them?
