1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Chile is home to Earth's oldest and most mysterious desert.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
We have huge giant figures carved into the desert.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,000
On the ground, a gigantic stone plates really gigantic.

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
It has ancient traditions of visitors from the sky.

5
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Our ancestors used to tell stories about beings who came from outer space.

6
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,000
And it is considered a hotbed of modern UFO reports.

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Chile has one of the highest rates of UFO sightings in the world.

8
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
You got two hot spots and they're separated.

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
It's probably very large because this is 35 miles away.

10
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
I've never seen anything like this in my life.

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Now that the Chilean government is openly examining UFOs,

12
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,000
could they uncover an extraterrestrial presence

13
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,000
that has been interacting with our planet for thousands of years?

14
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,000
Exterrestrial visitation to Chile never ended.

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,000
That's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.

16
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,000
It is truly amazing.

17
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,000
These are the cases where I think there's really something to the ancient astronaut theory.

18
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,000
I do too.

19
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,000
There is a doorway in the universe.

20
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Beyond it is the promise of truth.

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,000
It demands we question everything we have ever been taught.

22
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,000
The evidence is all around us.

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000
The future is right before our eyes.

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000
We are not alone.

25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000
We have never been alone.

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:55,000
The Anacama Desert, Chile, 2013.

27
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000
An autonomous rover traverses the barren landscape,

28
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000
carrying out a two-week NASA-funded mission

29
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,000
to collect soil samples from below the surface of the parched desert floor.

30
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,000
This region of Chile is the driest place on the planet.

31
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Some parts have not experienced rainfall for centuries,

32
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:25,000
making it one of the few locations on Earth that mimics conditions on Mars.

33
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Because the Anacama Desert is so similar to the landscape seen on Mars,

34
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000
it's a very useful research tool for astrobiologists.

35
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Those interested in studying how life exists in such difficult environments

36
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
and how it relates to the Mars landscape.

37
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:51,000
On February 28, 2019, the results of the mission are finally published.

38
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,000
While surveying this seemingly lifeless terrain,

39
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,000
the rover discovered evidence of microbial life,

40
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
thriving just below the surface.

41
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,000
The microbial life in the Anacama is very unique,

42
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
and life has existed where it really shouldn't be.

43
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Anybody who's been to the Anacama Desert of Chile knows that it's pretty unusual.

44
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,000
There are some very old life forms there you don't find so easily in other parts of the world.

45
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Scientists believe that future subsoil sampling on Mars

46
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:34,000
could reveal similar, and perhaps even identical, microbes.

47
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,000
Is it possible that there is life in the Anacama Desert

48
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:43,000
that matches life on a planet 140 million miles from Earth?

49
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned,

50
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,000
the desert soil contains evidence of a more profound extraterrestrial connection.

51
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000
We have figures that have been carved into the desert

52
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
similar to what we see in Nazca and Peru.

53
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:06,000
And they're huge, giant figures to be seen from the sky.

54
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:12,000
The Nazca lines in Peru lie just 500 miles north of the Anacama Desert.

55
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,000
They are the most famous geoglyphs on Earth,

56
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:21,000
with over 1,100 glyphs spread across 155 square miles.

57
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,000
But few people are aware that Chile's Anacama Desert

58
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
is home to nearly five times as many geoglyphs as Nazca,

59
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:36,000
with more than 5,000 covering an area of 90,000 square miles.

60
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:44,000
The Anacama Desert has one of the most, if not the most harsh environments on the planet.

61
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,000
So for civilizations years ago,

62
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
these glyphs that were engraved into the ground,

63
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,000
you know that was not an easy task.

64
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,000
There is no way that anyone would go through this effort

65
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:07,000
unless something very compelling and something very real happened to our ancestors.

66
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,000
And so I think it's time that we pay closer attention

67
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000
to what our ancestors really tried to describe.

68
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Of the thousands of geoglyphs in Chile, one towers above the rest.

69
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:29,000
The Anacama Giant measures 390 feet, 30 feet longer than a football field.

70
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,000
It sits on an ancient hillside known as Cerro Unitas.

71
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,000
When you walk by this, you cannot really see the chain.

72
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,000
This has been designed, constructed, you know, to be seen from above.

73
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000
And like at Nazca, seems to be a signal to the sky gods

74
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000
and those who are flying above the desert.

75
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000
So who are they signaling?

76
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,000
It would seem to be extraterrestrials.

77
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000
The Anacama Giant who has these lines coming out of the top of his head.

78
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:09,000
We have to ask the question, are these the beings that the geoglyph makers were trying to communicate with?

79
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Could the figures depicted in the Anacama and at Nazca

80
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,000
represent extraterrestrial visitors as ancient astronaut theorists contend?

81
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,000
And if so, could both the Nazca lines and the Anacama glyphs

82
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,000
serve a larger, more interconnected purpose?

83
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Having been made long before any national borders existed,

84
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:39,000
ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest they could mark an ancient flight path.

85
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:45,000
So when you look at all of these glyphs in Peru and Chile and the vast desert spaces

86
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:53,000
and all of the UFO activity there, is it possible that Chile is really this UFO avenue?

87
00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Is it possible that Chile is this flight path for extraterrestrials, an alien alley?

88
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:06,000
It's interesting when you look at the Nazca lines and the Anacama geoglyphs together.

89
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,000
These are symbols that are best observed from the sky and they explode in numbers

90
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000
as you move south to the Anacama.

91
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:20,000
Could this suggest that these symbols were some sort of aerial guide

92
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,000
guiding ancient aliens on their way into Chile?

93
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:31,000
And if so, this is exactly how the runway lights work on modern airports.

94
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:37,000
I think what we are seeing today is what was seen in the past

95
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:44,000
because Chile is honestly like a kind of a rival point.

96
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:51,000
For ancient astronaut theorists, what makes the Anacama geoglyphs even more compelling

97
00:07:51,000 --> 00:08:01,000
is the fact that Chile also boasts the highest number of reported UFO sightings in the world.

98
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,000
There is a huge wave, a large quantity of UFO sightings.

99
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Quite simply, there is not one family in Chile whose member has not had a UFO experience.

100
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:20,000
For some reason, Chile has one of the highest rates of UFO sightings in the world.

101
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Nobody really understands why, but it seems to be in a region that there is a cluster of UFO sightings.

102
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Chile is such a vast country. It encompasses a wide range of different climates.

103
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,000
There are jungles, there are deserts, there are forests.

104
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,000
There is huge biodiversity too.

105
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,000
And diversity in human populations.

106
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,000
There are modern first world cities and indigenous peoples.

107
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:55,000
If we are being visited, everything that you would want to see on planet Earth is there in one nation.

108
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Could there be a link between Chile's high number of UFO reports and the ancient geoglyphs found in the Anacama Desert?

109
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Incredibly, the Chilean government itself has suggested a connection between the country's ancient and modern mysteries.

110
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,000
San Clemente Chile

111
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000
2008

112
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Chile's National Tourism Board establishes a designated UFO trail.

113
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:36,000
A 19-mile route through one of the most infamous UFO hotspots in the country,

114
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,000
and it leads to an enigmatic site known as El Inlandrillado.

115
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:50,000
This megalithic platform was constructed from 233 volcanic blocks, each weighing upwards of 10 tons.

116
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:56,000
Now, El Inlandrillado is a plateau about 800 meters in diameter.

117
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,000
It is not a place of easy access.

118
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:05,000
You have to go and horseback for a couple of days in order to get there.

119
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,000
There is the belief that it was related to UFO landing.

120
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Also on the ground, a gigantic stone plates, really gigantic,

121
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:23,000
and it might very well be that El Andrillado was something like a space port of the extraterrestrials.

122
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Is there both ancient and modern evidence that Chile has been visited by extraterrestrials for thousands of years?

123
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
And if so, why?

124
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Perhaps further clues can be found by examining an indigenous tribe that once existed

125
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,000
in the southernmost reaches of the country and their mysterious rituals.

126
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Tierra del Fuego, Chile

127
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,000
1919

128
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:05,000
German missionary turned anthropologist Martin Gussende arrives in Chile's southernmost outpost,

129
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,000
just 200 miles north of Antarctica.

130
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,000
He is met by native islanders known as the Selknam.

131
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:20,000
But by the time of Gussende's arrival, the once thriving tribe had been almost completely wiped out.

132
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:30,000
The Selknam people or ONA were pre-Columbian people

133
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:39,000
who lived in very extreme southern Chile and Argentina in the Patagonia.

134
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:46,000
And when English came to this country, they committed genocide.

135
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000
And today the Selknam are extinct.

136
00:11:52,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Something else that happens to them is that many of them were taken back to Europe to be displayed in what was called human soothes.

137
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:07,000
So unfortunately, it was a genocide. It was a genocide against this tribe.

138
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:15,000
Before the tribe's tragic and complete annihilation, Gussende took a remarkable series of photos of these people.

139
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:22,000
In 2015, his work was finally published in the Lost Tribes of Tierra del Fuego,

140
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000
documenting the Selknam's unique ceremonies and rituals.

141
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:34,000
The Selknam were a marvelous culture. They had various rituals,

142
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000
and a pantheon of gods would make them perform a series of ceremonies

143
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,000
where they would dress up representing these gods from the sky.

144
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:51,000
The creator gods of the Selknam actually descended from the sky and gave knowledge to the local population.

145
00:12:51,000 --> 00:13:00,000
These pictures were taken in black and white, but in real life, the entire body is covered in bright red and white,

146
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:06,000
and it is signifying the fire of heaven according to the traditions.

147
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000
So you have to wonder what it means, the fire of heaven that descended from the sky.

148
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Now you combine this with the representations of the elongated skulls

149
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,000
and the very strange looking costumes that they have,

150
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:25,000
and right there you have a connection to exit to rest of visitation.

151
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Where the Selknam are located, there have been records of UFOs in that whole area.

152
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:40,000
And if that area is active in UFO sightings, then it is possible that we are thinking

153
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
what the Selknam must have been thinking in that time.

154
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:51,000
We were definitely communicating with other worlds, with mythological creatures and things,

155
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,000
and so there very well could have been a component of them having had extraterrestrial encounters

156
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,000
and now trying to communicate and continue that communication.

157
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,000
Could the clothing, body paint and rituals of the Selknam people

158
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,000
have been inspired by interaction with extraterrestrial visitors?

159
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,000
They dressed in all kinds of strange costumes.

160
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:24,000
They had very specific rituals that tied them to the land and to the stars.

161
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:30,000
When you look at some of these strange costumes with strange entertainment,

162
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,000
coming out of the side of their head, you have to wonder,

163
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,000
are they imitating extraterrestrials with their costumes?

164
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,000
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned,

165
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:49,000
compelling evidence exists that alien visitation occurred in this part of the world,

166
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,000
not only in the distant past, but continues even today.

167
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:03,000
Santiago, Chile, August 17th, 1985.

168
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Sabado Higante, the longest running variety show in television history,

169
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,000
interrupts its scheduled broadcast with an urgent report.

170
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,000
At about 2 p.m. or something like that,

171
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:22,000
Sabado Higante cuts the transmission, takes the cameras outside to the parking spot

172
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:27,000
and they spot this incredible object in the sky, clear blue sky.

173
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,000
We're talking about a silver-looking object.

174
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:37,000
I was just a child in that moment, but I can remember what my dad told about that.

175
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:47,000
And he said that it was astonishing because it was very quiet, light in the sky

176
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:53,000
and it was there, I think, 40 or 50 minutes and it didn't move.

177
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:08,000
The Santiago UFO, as it became known, was seen from Antofagasta to Concepción,

178
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:13,000
a distance of about 1200 miles, or almost half, of the country's coastline.

179
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
I was perhaps 10 years old at the time that we saw it.

180
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,000
And you can hear on the radio, you know, broadcasts from the Navy

181
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,000
telling you that they have not been able to identify, they don't know what it was.

182
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,000
It was one of those cases that really make you wonder, could it have been extraterrestrial?

183
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Yes, it could have been.

184
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Ancient astronaut theorists point out that this mass signing was reported along

185
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,000
what could be a specific flight path that has been documented since antiquity.

186
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:48,000
A route marked by Peru's Nazca lines, the geographs of the Atacama,

187
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,000
the megalithic platform of El Enladriado,

188
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:58,000
and reaching as far south as Tierra del Fuego, the homeland of the Selkna people.

189
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:06,000
The indications are that the COF activity has been going on in Chile for centuries,

190
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,000
if not thousands of years.

191
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Two, three, or maybe five centuries ago, our ancestors used to tell stories

192
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:24,000
about beings who came from outer space and who came to give us information.

193
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:34,000
It seems to me that Erich von Deniken's core theory is preserved and kind of confirmed.

194
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:42,000
The Santiago UFO incident is only the tip of a massive iceberg of well-documented reports

195
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:47,000
regarding inexplicable aerial phenomena observed in Chile.

196
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
But if these sightings represent other worldly encounters,

197
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:58,000
do extraterrestrials have a special interest in this area that some now call alien alley?

198
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,000
Pampa Yuskama, Chile

199
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:15,000
April 25, 1977, 4.15 a.m.

200
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Corporal Armando Valdez patrols the northern desert with a seven-man military unit.

201
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Suddenly, their lookout bursts into camp.

202
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:32,000
He has just witnessed two bright violet lights descend from the sky and land 500 yards away.

203
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Corporal Valdez was the leader of this patrol and he approached these objects.

204
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,000
What happened next is shrouded in confusion and mystery.

205
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,000
His men saw him almost disappear into the light.

206
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:57,000
He recalls getting disoriented, confused, perhaps passing out.

207
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:04,000
A next thing he knew, he reappeared again.

208
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:11,000
But the strange thing was that he had five days' growth of beard

209
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:18,000
and his watch showed a date five days into the future.

210
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Had he somehow been gone five days and yet to all the rest of the people in the patrol,

211
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:31,000
it was just perceived as a few minutes.

212
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,000
We were able to interview four members of Valdez's squad.

213
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:42,000
We interviewed Armando Valdez and everyone corroborated that this experience had actually occurred.

214
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Immediately following the incident, Corporal Valdez returned to his men on the verge of collapse

215
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,000
and uttered an ominous phrase.

216
00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:01,000
You don't know who we are or where we come from, but we will be back soon.

217
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,000
Based on the growing number of reports since this mysterious encounter,

218
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:10,000
many believe that they were true to their word.

219
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,000
There are so many UFO sightings in Chile.

220
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000
It's a hotbed of UFO activity.

221
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:24,000
And even just in the last eight years, there have been some significant UFO sightings

222
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,000
that the Chilean government has actually admitted to.

223
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:33,000
2012, the Chilean Air Force documented five lights

224
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,000
forming strange geometric patterns in the night sky.

225
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:45,000
And then in 2015, eight mysterious orbs flew in an oval formation above Santiago.

226
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Just recently in 2019, several bright red objects were seen streaking over the skies of southern Chile.

227
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,000
Chile is a place where there's a tremendous amount of UFO activity

228
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:07,000
and fortunately, the Chilean government is totally above board on these sites.

229
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:14,000
We see an extraordinary range of cases in Chile from close encounters

230
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,000
through to pilot encounters with UFOs.

231
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:24,000
Why have UFO sightings persisted in Chile in such abundance for hundreds,

232
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,000
if not thousands of years, as ancient astronaut theorists believe?

233
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:35,000
I think the reason why Chile to this day is considered a hotspot of UFO activity

234
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:43,000
is because Chile features one of the biggest uninhabited geographical locations on Earth.

235
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:51,000
The northern part is desolate desert that's virtually unpopulated.

236
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:57,000
And the southern part of Chile is fjords and glaciers.

237
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,000
It's also hardly populated down there, too.

238
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:10,000
There are all kinds of hiding spots, vacant places on the map where absolutely no one goes.

239
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,000
It's an ideal place to hide.

240
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,000
It's an ideal place for an underground base.

241
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Anything that enters our territory can hide.

242
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,000
Centuries can pass and no one will discover it.

243
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Are extraterrestrials hiding in, or even below, the uninhabited regions of Chile?

244
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:42,000
And if so, is it their intention to merely observe humanity,

245
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:48,000
or could there be something more tangible attracting them to this part of the world?

246
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:55,000
Even highly advanced extraterrestrial civilizations will have resource needs.

247
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,000
With Chile, one wonders if it isn't copper.

248
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,000
They have the biggest reserves anywhere on the planet.

249
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:09,000
There are also vast supplies of lithium and staggering amounts of natural resources, too.

250
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:20,000
It is not surprising to me that this whole strip that's present-day Chile that just goes 3,000 miles straight,

251
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:31,000
that this would be a hotbed of UFOs because that area of the planet is huge with raw materials and resources.

252
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,000
So if any extraterrestrials would arrive on planet Earth,

253
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:41,000
that area of the planet would be blinking under instruments with,

254
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,000
hey, come here, check out this area of the planet.

255
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:53,000
We have data, concrete data of UFO appearances in mines,

256
00:23:53,000 --> 00:24:01,000
in hydroelectric power plants, including such cases as in Lake Colban in the area of San Clemente.

257
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:08,000
The UFO landing and takeover of the hydroelectric power plant caused a vast quantity of blackouts.

258
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:17,000
When these lights would appear, the locals and the farmers would call them the light robbers.

259
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,000
Why?

260
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Because supposedly the locals would attribute the blackouts to these UFOs.

261
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:34,000
Have extraterrestrials mined this region's vast deposits of natural resources since antiquity?

262
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:40,000
Or more recently, tapped into energy generated from Chilean power plants?

263
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Perhaps definitive answers are just over the horizon.

264
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:50,000
With more and more unidentified flying objects invading the country's airspace every year,

265
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:58,000
unlike the United States, the Chilean government is actively and openly searching for answers.

266
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,000
Santiago Chile, 1990.

267
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:18,000
After a 17-year rule, Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet steps down,

268
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:23,000
ushering in a period of reform across the country.

269
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:28,000
With a new spirit of government transparency and social freedom,

270
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:37,000
the media, as well as military personnel, begin to openly investigate Chile's unrivaled UFO phenomenon.

271
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,000
Now, when it came to UFOs, this is not something new in Chile.

272
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,000
In Chile, we have had sightings long before Pinochet.

273
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:51,000
So after Pinochet, when the democracy comes back,

274
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,000
the military forces were making an effort to change the public opinion about them.

275
00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Following the country's newfound openness to UFO sightings,

276
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:08,000
control tower personnel observed a flurry of mysterious aerial activity in Chilean airspace.

277
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Unidentified objects were flying dangerously close to Chilean aircraft.

278
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:22,000
I do believe it's all right to know exactly what we are seeing, what our military is seeing all over the world.

279
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:28,000
Several notorious near-miss incidents elevated Chile's UFO activity

280
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
from harmless curiosity to an issue of national security.

281
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:44,000
As a result, in 1997, the Chilean government instituted the Committee on Studies of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena, or CIFA-R.

282
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,000
CIFA-R started as a result of pilot sightings.

283
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:55,000
Pilots, navigators, radar operators were reporting UFOs.

284
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Some of these objects came dangerously close to aircraft.

285
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000
The Chilean government decided to act.

286
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:11,000
So this is unique. It's government, it's military, and, importantly, it's the scientific community as well.

287
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,000
All working together with one common aim.

288
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:21,000
Find out what these sightings are, who's responsible, what's going on.

289
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:29,000
CIFA-R gets reports from all citizens from the far north down to Antarctica.

290
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,000
And these reports are made via our website.

291
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:39,000
In the last 22 years of investigation, we have received almost 900 reports.

292
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Our process and our manner of looking at these phenomena has been very rigorous, because we owe it to our community.

293
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:58,000
Instead of secrecy and cover-ups and conspiracies, we have an atmosphere of openness where people are almost encouraged to come forward and report.

294
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:10,000
The default position of CIFA-R after their investigations is to publish, release the case files, tell the people what you've discovered.

295
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:15,000
This is astonishing and refreshing.

296
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:29,000
CIFA-R insists that governments around the world should take a similar approach to accelerate our understanding of these aerial anomalies and reveal their true origin.

297
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:40,000
To us, it is important that more organizations or institutions or countries get involved in the study of this phenomenon.

298
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:47,000
The phenomenon clearly exists. We don't know exactly if there is only one explanation for its origin.

299
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:57,000
Without a doubt, however, when other countries or other states create institutions like ours, they contribute to the security of airspace operations.

300
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:06,000
We have more good documented video evidence out of Chile than almost any other nation I can think of.

301
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:18,000
On March 13, 2012, the Chilean government unveiled footage of a curious event caught on camera above the prestigious Elbosk Air Force Base in Santiago.

302
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:30,000
Crowds were gathered to celebrate the change of Chilean Air Force command in 2010, recording fighter jets performing acrobatic maneuvers overhead.

303
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:37,000
After investigating the footage, CIFA-R concluded that the jets were not alone.

304
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:49,000
The Elbosk was one that CIFA-R was very excited about, and when they slowed down the videos, you could see these objects zipping by at incredible speed.

305
00:29:49,000 --> 00:30:02,000
This case acquired notoriety once the videos were viewed. In these videos, there was a dark object that crossed the lines of flight of these squadron formations.

306
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:15,000
And this is where it gets really intriguing, because the official conclusion was that this UFO was traveling at a speed of around 4,000 miles an hour.

307
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:27,000
Since the objects in the Elbosk footage only reveal themselves for a brief moment, definitive answers remain elusive to investigators.

308
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:34,000
But just a few years later, the Chilean government would release an even more incredible video.

309
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,000
November 11, 2014

310
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Just outside of Santiago, Chilean Navy officers aboard an Airbus Cougar helicopter are testing an infrared-flir high-definition camera.

311
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Suddenly, the camera captures a strange object flying alongside them at an altitude of 4,500 feet.

312
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:12,000
After tracking it for several minutes, they witness what appears to be some sort of discharge coming from the craft.

313
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:22,000
The Cougar case was a military helicopter back in 2014 that produced footage in an infrared camera.

314
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:28,000
And we're talking about military equipment. We're talking about millions of dollars in equipment.

315
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:35,000
It's nine minutes long that they have continuous infrared footage of this phenomena. That's really unprecedented.

316
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,000
And if this phenomena is going on for nine minutes, we can do analysis on it.

317
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:47,000
UFO researchers consider this to be one of the most baffling incidents ever recorded.

318
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:57,000
Could a deeper analysis of the footage provide undeniable proof that what the Chilean Navy officers caught on camera was, in fact,

319
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,000
an alien aircraft?

320
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Los Angeles, California, November 25, 2019

321
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:22,000
For more than a decade, image analyst Michael Bradbury has examined videos of alleged UFOs looking for any signs that they could be something other than man-made aircraft.

322
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Intrigued by the recently released video shot from a Chilean Navy helicopter, he has invited astrophysicist Dr. Travis Taylor to join him and lend his expert opinion in examining the footage.

323
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:48,000
The Chilean helicopter video is really intriguing and fascinating because you have this vehicle or phenomena, whatever it is,

324
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:55,000
and then it starts releasing some type of material behind it. So we absolutely need to understand what this phenomena is.

325
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Right, here we go.

326
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:08,000
I'm not going into it with a belief that it is or isn't something. No. So let's apply our knowledge to it and see what we can come up with.

327
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:15,000
Everything I look at, I look at open-mindedly, you know, from a standpoint of we could be seeing something special here.

328
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:21,000
And then again, it could be possible bird or a bug. That's always an option inside the atmosphere of Planet Earth. It's just the way it is.

329
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,000
So this is from the helicopter, not far from San Diego?

330
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,000
Not far. November of 2014.

331
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,000
There's the object. And it's only visible in infrared format.

332
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,000
And that's really intriguing. The hi-diff video, it's like it's not even there.

333
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:44,000
Two ground radar, didn't see it. The radar on the helicopter could not pick it up. So super unique circumstances here.

334
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,000
You've got two hot spots and they're separated. You know, that's intriguing.

335
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,000
It's probably very large because this is 35 miles away.

336
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,000
And how do we know for sure it's 35 miles away?

337
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,000
Based off of the captain that was flying the helicopter. That was his estimate.

338
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,000
I've never seen anything like this in my life.

339
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:06,000
Michael inverts the image so they can examine the object's shape more closely.

340
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:14,000
What I've done here is taken the basic infrared and I just kind of flipped it and adjusted it a little better for clarity purposes.

341
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:21,000
You can clearly see the shape of the vehicle or whatever the thing is. It's peanut shaped. Why is it peanut shaped?

342
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:31,000
The pilot, his description was it had a flat body with these two like bright lenses or something.

343
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,000
You know, it kind of does look like two jet engines if you're looking at it from the back.

344
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:42,000
But the motion on it looks like it's moving side to side and the aspect ratio doesn't change on the circles.

345
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,000
It's not going into the page as it should be. There's no other structure.

346
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:53,000
That's the thing. You would see wings, a nose cone. You wouldn't just see the engine.

347
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:59,000
You can look at aircraft with an infrared camera and you see the structure because it's hot. You got sunshine on.

348
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,000
The engine, just the mechanics of it make it hot.

349
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,000
That's what I'm looking for here is for the flexibility off of the physical structure.

350
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,000
There's nothing. That kind of throws that idea out.

351
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:18,000
After isolating the object, Michael applies color filters to better define the object's unique heat signature for closer analysis.

352
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,000
Now this one is really interesting. This is adjusted, not altered.

353
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:29,000
Sure, I got it. So you've got black is hot here, green is ambient temperature, I'm assuming, then white is cold.

354
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:37,000
So here's the thing. There's clearly a field of cold air around this thing. That's baffling.

355
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:43,000
This thing, it's hot and then instantly cold. It's cold. And in nature, that's not how things work.

356
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:49,000
There is a different temperature bubble around the vehicle than there is around normal vehicles.

357
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Exactly. Which suggests some type of field, whatever that means. Could be electrical, magnetic, gravitational.

358
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:03,000
We just don't know what it is, but there is some sort of clear anomaly in some sort of field around this craft.

359
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:13,000
The most amazing thing from a scientific standpoint is some sort of low pressure or cold area immediately around whatever this phenomenon is.

360
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,000
And from a physics standpoint, we can't really explain what's causing that.

361
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:23,000
So when does it start releasing the particulates?

362
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,000
It does at about five minutes end of the video.

363
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:33,000
So right there. Now that's really interesting. So it's very hot, right? It's saturated black, very hot.

364
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,000
So again, in high depth, you can't see it.

365
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,000
That means it's a temperature plume. It's not necessarily a particulate plume.

366
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Like if you spray out jet fuel from the back of a plane, it starts cooling off almost immediately and you need to get ice crystals in it.

367
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Absolutely, because it's affected by the atmosphere.

368
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:52,000
This thing stays hot.

369
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,000
And it holds its shape, which in itself is highly unusual.

370
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,000
It doesn't follow standard fluid mechanics.

371
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:06,000
You can try to debunk this as just an earthly vehicle all you want to, but I've never seen any earthly vehicle that is explained this way.

372
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,000
What on earth could this thing be?

373
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:21,000
The video analysis suggests to Travis that this craft possesses technology that is more advanced than anything that can be found on earth.

374
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,000
That's really interesting.

375
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000
Michael completes the analysis using a variety of metrics.

376
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,000
This is converted infrared full gamma reduction.

377
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,000
And you've still got two hot spots.

378
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,000
Clearly you've got two hot spots in your peanut shape and they're separated.

379
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,000
You know, that's intriguing.

380
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,000
It looks like a diamond shape around it.

381
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:48,000
Looks like a diamond at times. Clear in some formats, but not visible to the naked eye.

382
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:53,000
It could be like two hexagons or two diamonds, whatever it ends up being.

383
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:59,000
Finally, Michael has one more thing to show Travis that he feels makes this footage even more extraordinary.

384
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,000
There's a good look at it right there.

385
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:03,000
That is, that's insane.

386
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:19,000
In 2017, the Chilean government released astonishing footage of a UFO caught on infrared camera near Santiago.

387
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:35,000
After new analysis, astrophysicist Dr. Travis Taylor has concluded that this strange aerial object possesses capabilities that are not consistent with any known human technology.

388
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:46,000
But as far as image analyst Michael Bradbury is concerned, perhaps most incredible of all is an image that appears not in the video,

389
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,000
but etched into the desert floor.

390
00:38:51,000 --> 00:39:02,000
There is a glyph on the ground that was found in the desert that has two diamond shaped objects with a plume coming out behind it that has a line in the center of it.

391
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,000
No kidding.

392
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,000
That is very intriguing.

393
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,000
And you see that same structure that was seen by the Chilean Navy.

394
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:13,000
They match nearly perfectly.

395
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:27,000
Just like the phenomena caught by this Chilean helicopter, like the diamond things we were seeing on the infrared, that's a phenomena right now we're seeing with our own eyes and we've seen it.

396
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,000
Somebody else saw it somehow.

397
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,000
How old is the glyph?

398
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,000
Several hundred if not thousands of years old.

399
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,000
So that's really exciting.

400
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:40,000
It's no coincidence that that was found in the same geographical part of the world.

401
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,000
That's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.

402
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,000
It is truly amazing.

403
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,000
These are the cases where I think there's really something to the ancient astronaut theory.

404
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,000
I do too.

405
00:39:53,000 --> 00:40:00,000
Just because thousands of years ago people did not have video cameras doesn't mean these things did not exist.

406
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:10,000
These diamond shaped wedges have the exact same trail as we can see in the UFO video.

407
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,000
So is there a connection?

408
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:24,000
And in my opinion, as far as Chile is concerned, there is a connection between modern UFOs and ancient craft.

409
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:39,000
Could the striking similarity between an ancient euclid and a craft captured on an infrared camera provide compelling evidence that extraterrestrials have been present on Earth for thousands of years?

410
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:46,000
And if so, has an alien flight path been positively identified in South America?

411
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:56,000
There are UFO reports from the modern industrialized cities and there are reports from the indigenous peoples.

412
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:05,000
Now when two completely different groups see and report the same thing, this tells me they're reporting something tangible and real.

413
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:18,000
What is really interesting is the connection between the contemporary UFOs and the mythological UFOs.

414
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:33,000
I think that aliens are visiting us and they are hidden from our eyes because they are waiting for our existential development.

415
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:44,000
Is it possible that the vast desert landscape stretching through Chile and Peru is an extraterrestrial outpost on Earth?

416
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:54,000
Do the incredible signage, curious rituals and strange geoglyphs tell a story of ongoing alien visitation?

417
00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:04,000
Perhaps as more incredible footage continues to surface, it will be revealed that our alien ancestors have been among us.

418
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,000
All along.
