1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
A secret alliance hidden in plain sight.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,000
After my allegedly, I am called Tuxedo.

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,000
I trust this information to the living world.

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Has a deal been done?

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
I think we don't know the whole picture.

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Joint space missions with undisclosed agendas.

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:26,000
Why do we not have a good HD photograph of whatever that big tower is?

8
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Why have the United States and Russia been working together

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000
from the very beginning of the space race?

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Both Russia and the US know about working extraterrestrial technology.

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
In preparation for the ultimate extraterrestrial encounter.

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Cooperation is the only way that we can actually achieve some sort of mutual defense of the planet Earth.

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,000
We should learn it in detail from the history of the program.

14
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,000
No Counselor

15
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Seoul, South Korea, March 26, 2012.

16
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:36,520
The leaders of over 50 nations gather for the Nuclear Security Summit, a two-day conference

17
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:43,200
to discuss issues regarding the proliferation and safekeeping of nuclear weapons.

18
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:48,320
During a photo op between American President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry

19
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:55,000
Medvedev, who was soon to be replaced by then Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, the two leaders

20
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:01,400
have an off-the-record conversation that raises more than a few eyebrows.

21
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:18,240
But even more intriguing were recorded but not filmed comments, in which President

22
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,600
Obama told Medvedev, quote, it's important for him to give me space.

23
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:30,600
And to which Medvedev replied, I understand your message about space.

24
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,000
The revelation was extraordinary.

25
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,160
President Obama's quote was, it's important for him to give me space.

26
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,160
What does that mean?

27
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,800
Some people think it simply means breathing space, space to operate, room to maneuver

28
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:46,800
politically.

29
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:53,520
But there is an interpretation that suggests he meant literally it's important for him

30
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,440
to give me space, outer space.

31
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,960
Any time you hear governments talk about space, you hear them talk about space exploration,

32
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:13,000
trust me that the underlying implied unspoken reality behind that is the alien presence.

33
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:20,960
It is possible that Russia and America, in some aspects of the space question, and maybe

34
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:27,440
the extraterrestrial question, maybe they are working together after all.

35
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:32,760
Is it possible that even between two of the world's most powerful political rivals, there

36
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:39,880
is a secret understanding, one based on America and Russia's past and future roles in outer

37
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,000
space?

38
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,160
And astronauts theorists say yes.

39
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:52,560
And they also believe that this secret understanding extends to numerous experiences involving

40
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,600
extraterrestrial contact.

41
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:02,000
As evidence, they point to an occasion that took place just a few months after Medvedev's

42
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,800
now famous exchange with Barack Obama.

43
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:13,520
On December 7, 2012, after giving a primetime network interview in Moscow, Medvedev made

44
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:20,040
remarks offstage, which seemed to openly acknowledge the existence of extraterrestrials and the

45
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,200
Russian government's efforts to keep that existence a secret.

46
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:49,720
Although most of the journalists in the room believe the Russian president's remarks

47
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,560
to have been made in jest, there were others who were not so certain.

48
00:04:54,560 --> 00:05:01,160
This is one of the most dramatic statements that emanates out of Russia, and so it's fascinating.

49
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,080
And Mitry Medvedev said, when you become president of Russia, you're given information

50
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:13,080
on aliens in our country and the human groups that are monitoring them.

51
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:21,440
He was totally with a straight face during all of this.

52
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:28,080
Here he is on film saying that there is a secret governmental cooperation occurring

53
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:35,640
in the background that has the highest levels of classification to really monitor extraterrestrials

54
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:40,120
that are visiting our planet.

55
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,800
Forget all the differences.

56
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,160
Forget ideologies.

57
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,960
At the highest level, the two nations work together.

58
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:54,040
After World War II, there was a number of UFO encounters, very important encounters,

59
00:05:54,160 --> 00:06:00,200
and this gave impetus to joint cooperation between our nations.

60
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,120
Joint cooperation?

61
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,120
Even during the tension-filled decades of the Cold War?

62
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:11,680
Ancient astronaut theorists believe that not only did such a secret relationship exist,

63
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,240
but that it began several decades ago.

64
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:22,400
As a consequence of what they believe to be the Soviet Union's first documented UFO encounter,

65
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:29,400
an event they commonly refer to as the Russian Roswell.

66
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:37,360
Southern Russia, June 19, 1948.

67
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:44,360
At a remote Soviet military installation known as Kapustin Yar, an unidentified flying object

68
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,560
is detected over the base.

69
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,400
Strange blips were seen on radar.

70
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:54,400
The Russian was tracked, performing extraordinary speeds and maneuvers.

71
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,400
And a Russian fighter jet was sent to intercept it.

72
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:06,400
The pilot saw a silver cigar-shaped object and was told, shoot this thing down.

73
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,400
It's in restricted military airspace.

74
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,400
The UFO fired some sort of directed energy,

75
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,400
a death threat, but before the Russian jet was down,

76
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,400
it managed to launch a missile and shoot down the UFO.

77
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:34,400
Some people have speculated this was the time that the Russians found out about extraterrestrials.

78
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:40,400
According to the myths and legends, at Kapustin Yar, they actually recovered bodies,

79
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:46,400
recovered the spacecraft itself, and it was kept there for study and reverse engineering.

80
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:52,400
We are told that there is an underground facility under Kapustin Yar,

81
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,400
similar probably to facilities here in the States,

82
00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:01,400
where a full examination could be performed on the pilots of these craft.

83
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,400
To ancient astronaut theorists and researchers,

84
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,400
what makes the Kapustin Yar story all the more significant

85
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:16,400
is that it occurred within a year of the now infamous Roswell Internet,

86
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:24,400
in which a UFO reportedly crashed in the New Mexico desert sometime in June of 1947.

87
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:31,400
That took place near the only active military unit in the world that had nuclear weapons.

88
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,400
That was the Roswell 509th bombing unit, and they had nukes.

89
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,400
Similarly, over the Soviet Union, at places like Kapustin Yar,

90
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:48,400
we've got significant UFO activity being reported, military engagements, just like in the United States.

91
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:54,400
And I personally believe that extraterrestrials had a strong interest in the nuclear technologies

92
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,400
that were then developing on planet Earth, which is exactly why they were there.

93
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,400
Could it be that both the Kapustin Yar and Roswell incidents

94
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,400
were attempts by extraterrestrials to make contact

95
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,400
because of mankind's recent development of nuclear weapons?

96
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:17,400
But if such contact did occur, did it signal an era of secret cooperation

97
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:24,400
between the world's two great superpowers, or did it only trigger a greater degree of rivalry and competition?

98
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,400
In Roswell, you had the crash.

99
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,400
You had the recovered alien bodies, but the aliens were dead.

100
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,400
There was no way to communicate with them because they had been killed.

101
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:41,400
So we had the technology, but probably no really good idea on how to start reverse engineering it.

102
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,400
Whereas at Kapustin Yar, as the story goes, they not only got the spacecraft itself,

103
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,400
but apparently there was at least one survivor of the incident.

104
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:57,400
So what could the Russians possibly have learned from that alien extraterrestrial biological entity

105
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,400
that we were not able to learn from our Roswell incident?

106
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:05,400
Why were the Russians first into space?

107
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:11,400
Why did they manage to do Sputnik 1 and then send Yuri Gagarin up into orbit

108
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,400
and leave the Americans standing?

109
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:20,400
Because on paper you'd think that the US government should have won that race, but they didn't.

110
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:27,400
If the Russians got live aliens, maybe they found out something from what happened at Kapustin Yar

111
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,400
that gave them the edge in the space race.

112
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:39,400
Is it possible that the Soviet Union gained a strategic advantage in the so-called space race

113
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,400
because of how it received from an extraterrestrial visitor?

114
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,400
But if so, then how did the United States so quickly catch up

115
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:55,400
and some would argue, overtake them by being the first to put humans on the moon?

116
00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:02,400
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the answers are easily obtained,

117
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,400
not by examining what the two nations were each admitting to in public,

118
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:11,400
but what they were doing together in secret.

119
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,400
July 17th, 1975

120
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,400
Moscow is go for docking, Houston is go for docking, it's up to you guys.

121
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:33,400
High above the Earth, an American Apollo Command service module docks with its Soviet counterpart, the Soyuz 19.

122
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:40,400
A few hours later, the two mission commanders, Thomas Stafford and Alexei Leonov,

123
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:48,400
shake hands through the open hatch, the first international handshake to take place in space.

124
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:53,400
The historic mission, officially known as the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project,

125
00:11:53,400 --> 00:12:01,400
marked the end of the space race that began when the Soviets launched Sputnik back in 1957

126
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:08,400
and ushered in a new era of open collaboration in space between the United States and the Soviet Union.

127
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:18,400
The 1975 Apollo-Soyuz mission was in itself an expression of cooperation of our two nations.

128
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:27,400
The entente was coming, hopes for cooperation, hopes for future space exploration, friendship.

129
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:34,400
While Apollo-Soyuz was the first public demonstration of American and Soviet cooperation in space,

130
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,400
there were many who believed that that collaboration began decades earlier,

131
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:45,400
following two separate events that involved extraterrestrial visitations,

132
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:50,400
one in Roswell, New Mexico and another known as Kapustin Yar,

133
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:57,400
which happened near the town of Isnaminsk in the western region of the former Soviet Union.

134
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:04,400
There's an argument that suggests the Apollo-Soyuz mission was actually a sort of soft disclosure,

135
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:12,400
getting the story out there in a quiet way so that there would be no great bombshell revelation later.

136
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:24,400
Moscow, July 1965, exactly one decade prior to the historic Apollo-Soyuz mission,

137
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,400
scientists at the Sternberg Astronomical Institute

138
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:36,400
analyze a series of 25 photographs of the moon transmitted from the Soviet unmanned probe Zon-3.

139
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:44,400
The images, taken approximately 7,000 miles away from the lunar surface, are unprecedented in quality

140
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:49,400
and offer the first clear view of the far side of the moon.

141
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:55,400
In the years following the Zon-3 mission, researchers have argued that the 25 photographs

142
00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:00,400
show structures on the moon that did not occur naturally.

143
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,400
There were clear anomalies that had been seen on camera for the first time.

144
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:11,400
One was kind of a giant dome that appeared to have a glass-like structure to the top of it that had been shattered and beaten up,

145
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:18,400
and then another image, there was a 20-mile-high tower that was plainly visible on the photographs that were published.

146
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:28,400
Knowing the secrecy of the Soviets during this era, it's quite possible that they had other pictures that might reveal what these structures are.

147
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:39,400
Why do we not have a good HD photograph of whatever that big tower is that the Zon-3 probe took in 1965? Why?

148
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:46,400
Those pictures are still classified in Russia as they were in the Soviet Union.

149
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:52,400
Apparently, some 25 pictures were transferred to NASA. I don't know how.

150
00:14:52,400 --> 00:15:02,400
Was this a CIA operation or was this an actual transfer of information, which again shows you the level of exchange of cooperation between our governments?

151
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:08,400
Something that's classified in Russia is openly available in the United States.

152
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:18,400
Did the Russians discover evidence of artificial structures on the moon four years before the American astronauts landed there?

153
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:29,400
And if so, did they secretly communicate their findings in order to help guide NASA's plans for the first manned mission to the moon?

154
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:35,400
Ancient astronaut theorists believe that such an aughtacious notion may be true,

155
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:42,400
and also suggest that while the United States later became focused on launching its space shuttle program,

156
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:51,400
the Russians journeyed even deeper into space in search of further evidence of extraterrestrial activity in our solar system.

157
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,400
Baikonur Cosmodrome

158
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,400
July 1988

159
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:05,400
The Soviet Union launches two probes, which are each programmed to photograph Phobos,

160
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,400
one of the two moons that orbit the planet Mars.

161
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:15,400
Although the first probe fails to reach its target, the second proves more successful.

162
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:22,400
Named Phobos II, it uses sophisticated cameras and infrared lasers to collect and transmit photos and data about the atmosphere and surface of the Martian moon.

163
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:29,400
In the final stage of its mission, the probe attempts a landing on the moon's surface.

164
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:34,400
Suddenly, without warning, the Russian craft stops transmitting.

165
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,400
But not until it relays one last incredible mission.

166
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:44,400
As they got closer with Phobos, we see one last frame that seems to have showed up.

167
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:51,400
What appears to be some type of laser beam or some type of object coming from Phobos and disabling the satellite.

168
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:59,400
In a very large cigar-shaped shadow, as if it's possibly a large craft of some kind hovering above the surface.

169
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:05,400
There have been members of the Soviet Science Academy and actual cosmonauts like Maria Popovich,

170
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:12,400
who came right out and said that the reports inside the Soviet Union indicated that Phobos II had been shot down.

171
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:17,400
What happened to the Phobos II probe?

172
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:22,400
Did it really photograph the entire planet?

173
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,400
What happened to the Phobos II probe?

174
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,400
Did it really photograph an alien craft?

175
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:43,400
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and point to another Mars mission almost a decade later as proof of an extraterrestrial presence on Phobos.

176
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:49,400
In 1998, NASA's Mars Global Surveyor took images of Phobos,

177
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:54,400
revealing a monolith 279 feet in length.

178
00:17:54,400 --> 00:18:00,400
Instantly, ancient astronaut theorists and others connected this to what the Soviets had discovered in the 1980s

179
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:10,400
and hypothesized that perhaps there is a working extraterrestrial element on Mars that seeks to prevent us from discovering the secrets of Phobos.

180
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:16,400
Now we have a situation where both Russia and the US know about this,

181
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:27,400
and perhaps it's not just artifacts and ancient civilizations, but working extraterrestrial technology.

182
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:39,400
Were otherworldly forces guiding both the US and Soviet space programs in an effort to encourage peaceful cooperation between the world's two great nuclear adversaries?

183
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:49,400
Although such a far-fetched notion seems absurd, there are many who believe that not only was extraterrestrial contact taking place,

184
00:18:49,400 --> 00:19:00,400
but that it had been happening for dozens of years, and that one such incident involved a number of top-secret communications between a Russian scientist

185
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:05,400
and what he believed to be his alien ancestors.

186
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,400
Kaluga, Russia

187
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,400
May 1903

188
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:25,400
Little-known Russian schoolteacher Konstantin Salkovsky publishes a landmark paper on rocket science titled

189
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:30,400
Exploration of Outer Space by Means of Rocket Devices.

190
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,400
At a time when the Wright brothers are still working to achieve the first powered flight,

191
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:44,400
Salkovsky writes about groundbreaking concepts for the exploration of space, including what he calls the ideal rocket equation,

192
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:51,400
a formula which calculates the amount of velocity needed to lift a body into outer space.

193
00:19:51,400 --> 00:20:01,400
Incredibly, his theories would prove instrumental in helping the Soviet Union launch the first man-made object into orbit more than 50 years later.

194
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,400
Konstantin Salkovsky wasn't a classically trained scientist.

195
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:15,400
He was a secondary school math teacher, but he was so enamored with getting into space that he created the rocket science and mathematics

196
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:23,400
in the early 1900s that led to the first thing created by humanity to be launched into space, Sputnik.

197
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,400
To put into perspective how influential Salkovsky's work was,

198
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,400
this is the basis work that everybody had to use later.

199
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:43,400
Von Braun used it during his research on rockets, and most of the world sees the Salkovsky rocket equation as the beginning of modern rocket science.

200
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:53,400
Salkovsky was self-educated, so he had no resources, no abilities to go to some universities.

201
00:20:54,400 --> 00:21:03,400
And knowing that it's very interesting how he was able to create his formulas and his ideas about space travel.

202
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,400
Where did he get those ideas? Where does his knowledge come from?

203
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:20,400
His ideas about space and civilizations that populated were incredible, and he persisted that when humans will go into outer space,

204
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,400
we will become like other alien civilizations.

205
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,400
Alien civilizations?

206
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:38,400
How did a Russian math teacher, who grew up in a small village in eastern Russia, come to believe that there were other intelligent beings in the universe,

207
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:43,400
and that it was mankind's destiny to join them in the cosmos?

208
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,400
The answer is simple.

209
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:55,400
Konstantin Salkovsky, like millions of other Russians of his day, subscribed to a philosophy known as Cosmism,

210
00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:02,400
which promoted the idea that humanity has an ancient connection to extraterrestrial beings.

211
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,400
Russian Cosmism began in the mid- and late-19th century.

212
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:12,400
Within the traditions of Cosmism, there are many who believe that our origins are actually alien in nature.

213
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:21,400
That is to say, the human civilization is an alien transplant, and that in going into space, we are actually going back home.

214
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:33,400
From that perspective, it's very much in alignment with the ancient astronaut theory, where human beings strive to reconnect with these ancient gods

215
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,400
through efforts like creating a more advanced space program.

216
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:48,400
What made Salkovsky and others like him so certain that aliens existed, and that space travel held the key to humans reconnecting with these otherworldly beings?

217
00:22:48,400 --> 00:23:01,400
For the answer, ancient astronaut theorists point to Salkovsky's writings, in which he described extraterrestrial beings sending messages and information to mankind from the stars.

218
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:09,400
He also wrote that he himself had personally received a number of interplanetary communications.

219
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,400
Salkovsky experienced tremendous sightings in his life.

220
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:29,400
One was in 1889. He was looking at the sky, and all of a sudden he saw a perfect cloud in the shape of a four-pointed cross flying over him.

221
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:44,400
Salkovsky believed that universes stemming with life and these forms of life were influencing and guiding human evolution and history.

222
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:52,400
He also felt that he was receiving telepathic messages from extraterrestrials.

223
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:58,400
This leaves us to ponder, was he actually in contact with intelligences from out there?

224
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,400
Did they guide his hand? Did they supply this equation?

225
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:13,400
Some of his models of what a spacecraft would look like are very much in alignment with the descriptions of various UFOs, this cigar elongated shape.

226
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:23,400
Was he actually in communication with the beings that are piloting these craft? Is it a vision that he got, showing how they manipulate and pilot these vehicles?

227
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,400
And that's why he was able to come up with such an accurate representation for that model.

228
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:41,400
For many ancient astronaut theorists, Russia's widespread embrace of Cosmism might help explain why the Soviet Union's reaction to the UFO incident at Kapustin Yar

229
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:46,400
was likely very different than the American military's reaction to Roswell.

230
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:56,400
The United States approached the space race with an eye toward achieving scientific and technological superiority.

231
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:03,400
The Soviet Union seemed less focused on technological goals such as that of landing a man on the moon

232
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:11,400
and more interested in using space travel as a means of realizing a kind of extraterrestrial destiny.

233
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:19,400
So the space race was really a cover for creating new technologies in our defense industry.

234
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:25,400
To create rockets that could put large amounts of mass into space, put a satellite into orbit.

235
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:35,400
All these things required technological developments that enabled spy satellites, they enabled communication satellites, they enabled intercontinental ballistic missiles.

236
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:48,400
And Russians were the first ones to promote this idea of unity between outer space and people on Earth.

237
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:54,400
Tselkovsky in youth there were other civilizations in outer space and he wanted to meet them.

238
00:25:54,400 --> 00:26:03,400
He put the seeds into minds of the people that helped develop rockets and space technology in the Soviet Union.

239
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:14,400
Maybe Cosmism and then the Russian successes with Sputnik and Yuri Gagarin made the Americans realize we need them.

240
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:24,400
The Russians can do things we can't do. They have a philosophical outlook on this which gives them an inherent advantage.

241
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:30,400
And maybe in that sort of situation each party brings something to the table.

242
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:40,400
Could it be that when the Soviets launched Sputnik it wasn't simply a show of scientific superiority or military might,

243
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:45,400
but an attempt to directly connect with extraterrestrial beings.

244
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:54,400
And if so, could that have motivated the United States to work more closely with them and ultimately partner with them?

245
00:26:54,400 --> 00:27:05,400
Perhaps further clues can be found by examining what happened to the American and Soviet space programs after the Soviet Union collapsed.

246
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:18,400
Moscow Christmas Day 1991

247
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:24,400
I am now including my activity as President of the U.S.

248
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:32,400
In one of the most significant events of the 20th century, Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev announces his resignation.

249
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:41,400
Just five days short of its 70th anniversary, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is officially designed.

250
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:50,400
The Soviet Union collapsed in 1989, 1990, 1991 and split up into its constituent republics.

251
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,400
Russia at that time in the 1990s was a hellhole.

252
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:58,400
Ethnic conflicts were brewing all around the borders of the Russian Federation.

253
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,400
Incredibly high levels of crime, the birth of the Russian mafia.

254
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:11,400
But of all the problems that now plagued the former Soviet Union, their space program was not one of them.

255
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:22,400
Their mere orbiting space station was considered a huge success, which often stood in stark contrast to the United States tragedy plague shuttle program.

256
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:46,400
This contrast was so stark in fact that when the shuttle program quietly ended in 2011, the United States suspended its own manned space program in favor of sending its astronauts up to the International Space Station as little more than passengers aboard Russian Soyuz spacecraft.

257
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:55,400
It seems that the US ceded control of space to the Russians, certainly in relation to manned missions.

258
00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:06,400
But it is bizarre, for whatever reason, the Russians, despite all their problems, seem to be ahead of the US in some respects when you talk about space.

259
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:25,400
A couple of examples of where the US seemed to have ceded control or certainly ceded the leadership position in space to the Russians are the International Space Station, where now American astronauts can't even get there without going up in Russian rockets.

260
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:39,400
For ancient astronaut theorists, the partnership between the two rival space programs was simply an admission of what had already been taking place in secret for decades.

261
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:53,400
It also proved that both the US and Russian space programs were going to continue working together in the interest of furthering the goal of extraterrestrial contact.

262
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,400
But this time there was a difference.

263
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:05,400
Russia was now largely controlled by depocketed oligarchs and run by tight-grip autocrats like Vladimir Putin.

264
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:13,400
They were free of the kind of public scrutiny that would force full disclosure about just what they were doing in outer space.

265
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:23,400
If there are alien human encounters taking place in space or in low-earth orbit, the Russians could bring back the information and share it with us.

266
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:29,400
There is a certain level of secrecy that is very different in Russia than it is in the United States.

267
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:44,400
So it could be that most sensitive information is being handled by the Russian side, so to make sure that it doesn't get released and doesn't spook the populations in different nations.

268
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:56,400
But while information coming out of Russia is now under tight control, the same could not be said for the period when the Soviet Union was imploding.

269
00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:05,400
And it was during this brief period that Russia's extensive history of extraterrestrial encounters became all but fully exposed.

270
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:11,400
In the waning days of the Soviet Union, a lot of interesting documents pertaining to UFOs were declassified.

271
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:24,400
For example, the KGB so-called Blue File, 124 pages of information about UFO cases that came within to the KGB. It was declassified.

272
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:38,400
We know that most of the documents pertaining to the Zetka program, which was the official Soviet top secret UFO program which existed for 13 years from 78 to 1991, most of those cases are not available.

273
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:49,400
But the cases that we know about it, I've studied, are enough to make you amazed to know the end of what they have discovered and what may be in store.

274
00:31:49,400 --> 00:32:03,400
If the United States and the Soviet Union each experienced decades of extraterrestrial contact and had been secretly sharing their experiences and information with each other, what is their ultimate agenda?

275
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:22,400
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the answers can be found in recently revealed Russian research that is intended to change the human body in order to prepare it to travel the galaxy.

276
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:33,400
Voronish, Russia. September 27th, 1989.

277
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:45,400
A group of children playing in a park witness a shining ball in the sky that transforms into a disc-shaped craft and lands nearby.

278
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:53,400
They see strange beings emerge from the craft, beings that do not appear to be human.

279
00:32:53,400 --> 00:33:00,400
In the days after the encounter, as many as 30 other eyewitnesses corroborate their account.

280
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:05,400
Many people were out and observed children as well as adults.

281
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:11,400
Observers watched a hatch open and two beings come out.

282
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,400
A very tall one and a modest size one.

283
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:24,400
The tall one was described as rather mechanical looking, but a being that estimates were from 9 to 12 feet tall.

284
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:30,400
The small one looked like a robot. Both were distinguished by very small heads.

285
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:34,400
They began to move about the park. People reacted.

286
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:42,400
One report has a boy in shock. The taller being pointing an apparatus at the boy and freezing him.

287
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:47,400
He was reactivated so to say before the craft took off.

288
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:54,400
This is one of these cases where there are so many witnesses and they have all been interviewed.

289
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,400
And they're just all sincere. They all saw something.

290
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:03,400
Some of the witnesses definitely describe those things as artificial looking and mechanical.

291
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,400
Well, we ourselves seem to be moving in that direction.

292
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,400
Are we creating ourselves as synthetic beings in the future?

293
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:16,400
And the answer is we sure may be. That's the way it seems to be going.

294
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:24,400
If there are extraterrestrial beings visiting Earth, is it possible that they are not biological like us?

295
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:31,400
But have adopted synthetic bodies better suited for traveling to cosmos?

296
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:38,400
And if so, might humanity be forced to do the same in order to travel into deep space?

297
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Many scientists believe this to be the case. And there is a growing movement in Russia to take the first steps of this transformation.

298
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,400
Moscow

299
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,400
February 2012

300
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:11,400
Russian billionaire Dmitry Itzkov brings together over 50 leading scientists to discuss what he believes is the next step in human evolution.

301
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,400
Immortality

302
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:28,400
Through his ambitious project called the 2045 Initiative, Itzkov hopes to create technology that would ultimately upload the human brain into a computer by the year 2045.

303
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:38,400
The 2045 Initiative, it really is a call to bring minds together to solve the problem of essentially digitizing a human being.

304
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:45,400
And in that case, you could download it, you could transfer it to another source, could allow it to go into space.

305
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:56,400
They want to make human beings immortal, beings that can explore farthest reaches of the universe.

306
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:08,400
To me, this exactly ties in with what the Russian philosophers and scientists talked about in the beginning of the 20th century, Russian Cosmos.

307
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:17,400
In this, we hear echoes of the vision of Sylkovsky. He told us that he was in contact with extraterrestrial beings.

308
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,400
He specifically noted that they were, in fact, light beings.

309
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:33,400
So it's possible that what we are doing is catching up with his vision that if we create avatar humans, are we in fact then recreating the extraterrestrials who are originally connected with him?

310
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:44,400
Who knows if the Russians could actually achieve this 2045 Initiative, but they are thinking about it and they don't seem to be upset with the process that's planned.

311
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,400
The United States, on the other hand, wouldn't even consider such an idea.

312
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:58,400
Doing experiments on a human of transplanting a brain into a robot is probably going to take a lot of approval and a long time for anyone to sign on to that.

313
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,400
But is it the same if you're in Russia?

314
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:08,400
Their system of government is a little different and they might do experiments like that easier than the United States.

315
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:18,400
In the US and in the West, it is perhaps a long, hard journey to convince people that these things should be done.

316
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,400
Maybe we will never convince them.

317
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:33,400
But in Russia, through Cosmism, through Transhumanism, as the Russians practice it, you're trying to do things that Russians already believe in and aspire to.

318
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:40,400
There's real benefit to the US in making the Russians our partners.

319
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:50,400
Is it possible that humanity, led by the United States and Russia, is poised to take bold steps into deep space?

320
00:37:52,400 --> 00:38:02,400
If so, is this escalation limited to space travel or might it also include something like a military space force?

321
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:12,400
The White House, June 18, 2018

322
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:24,400
At a meeting of the National Space Council, President Donald J. Trump calls on the Pentagon to develop a sixth branch of the United States military, a space force.

323
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:39,400
I'm hereby directing the Department of Defense and Pentagon to establish a space force as the sixth branch of the armed forces. That's a big statement.

324
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:52,400
The stunning news was followed ten days later by the announcement that President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin would have a private, behind closed doors meeting the following month.

325
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:58,400
Is it possible that these two high profile events were strategically related?

326
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:09,400
If both nations are aware that there's an extraterrestrial presence and that that is potentially hostile, then cooperation is the only route to go.

327
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,400
It's the only way that we could actually achieve some sort of mutual defense of the planet Earth.

328
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:26,400
This one on one between Trump and Putin may just be the latest in a long line of secret high level communications between the world leaders.

329
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:34,400
And it may be that things like the creation of the space force show that there's been an escalation.

330
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:39,400
Well, the reason you create a force of any kind is to deal with a threat.

331
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:51,400
We're reaching a point in our civilization here on Earth that we're beginning to send probes and maybe even send people throughout the solar system, maybe even into deeper space.

332
00:39:53,400 --> 00:40:05,400
It's quite possible the space force could be set up in outposts in case there was some incident on Mars or in the asteroid belt or at Jupiter or way out at the Kuiper Belt.

333
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:24,400
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the U.S.-Russia relationship in space is the direct result of an extraordinary agenda, not on the part of world leaders, but by an extraterrestrial intelligence.

334
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:37,400
An intelligence that believes that each nation has the unique ability to complement the other's strengths and weaknesses, and that outer space should be explored not as a function of competition,

335
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:43,400
but as the result of mankind's shared need to fulfill its ultimate destiny.

336
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:52,400
It seems that Russia and America have been inextricably bound together in this space race.

337
00:40:54,400 --> 00:41:02,400
A space race run perhaps not between nations, but with nations racing alongside each other.

338
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:10,400
In actuality, the idea of space race is not correct, because there were never space races.

339
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:20,400
There was cooperation which had to be kept secret for a while, but sooner or later you could see the fruits of such cooperation.

340
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:30,400
We actually have to work together and explore together and cooperate together to prevent any danger to Earth.

341
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:42,400
As humans prepare for their journey to Mars and beyond, they will become the extraterrestrial visitors of other worlds.

342
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:54,400
And if ancient astronaut theorists are correct, their journey will have been aided by alien visitors, who see our planet not as a number of warring nations,

343
00:41:54,400 --> 00:42:04,400
but as a launching pad filled with people eager to explore an amazing universe.
