1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,940 Extraordinary accounts of missing time. 2 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,880 Once the aircraft penetrated the tunnel, 3 00:00:06,980 --> 00:00:09,780 time started changing instantly. 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:14,880 It only took three minutes and 20 seconds to fly 100 miles. 5 00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:19,220 Other worldly events that seemed to alter reality 6 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,400 seemed like everything was going in slow motion, 7 00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:23,300 like everything was slowing down. 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:28,140 Sightings of strange craft changing location instantaneously. 9 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:33,880 These vehicles are able to pop in and pop out of either time 10 00:00:33,980 --> 00:00:36,180 or another dimension. 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,520 Could extraterrestrials have mastered the ability 12 00:00:39,620 --> 00:00:41,980 to travel through time? 13 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,420 Is Earth being visited not only by entities from other planets, 14 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,800 but also from the future or even the distant past? 15 00:00:51,900 --> 00:00:54,860 Perhaps an alien civilization in outer space. 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,340 Thousands of years more advanced than us. 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,440 May be able to time travel. 18 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,540 There is a doorway in the universe. 19 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,920 Beyond it is the promise of truth. 20 00:01:13,020 --> 00:01:18,060 It demands we question everything we have ever been taught. 21 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,520 The evidence is all around us. 22 00:01:21,620 --> 00:01:25,560 The future is right before our eyes. 23 00:01:25,820 --> 00:01:28,520 We are not alone. 24 00:01:28,620 --> 00:01:31,160 We have never been alone. 25 00:01:43,260 --> 00:01:46,500 Mount Pion, Turkey. 26 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,740 Here, where the ancient Greek city of Ephesus once stood, 27 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,440 lie the ruins of a religious site known as the grotto 28 00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:56,660 of the Seven Sleepers. 29 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,200 The grotto is thought to be the location 30 00:01:59,300 --> 00:02:02,540 where many centuries ago a group of seven men 31 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,540 experienced a shift in time. 32 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,340 In the Christian and Islamic story 33 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,580 of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus, 34 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,420 we learn the amazing story of seven warriors who professed 35 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,160 Christianity in 250 AD when it was just beginning 36 00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:21,760 to emerge as a new religion. 37 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,080 The Roman emperor offered these warriors an opportunity 38 00:02:26,180 --> 00:02:29,860 to recant and to disavow their Christianity. 39 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,560 Instead, they decide to sell all their possessions 40 00:02:32,660 --> 00:02:34,860 and go into a cave. 41 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,500 And in response, the emperor decides 42 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,640 to seal this cave with the sleepers inside of it. 43 00:02:42,740 --> 00:02:47,540 Several hundred years go by, and a shepherd 44 00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:51,180 chances upon this cave. 45 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,840 And he breaks down the wall, and the seven people 46 00:02:56,940 --> 00:03:00,140 inside the cave have been sleeping for hundreds of years. 47 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,820 And it's now 300 years later. 48 00:03:02,920 --> 00:03:07,060 And they're still alive, these seven sleepers. 49 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,700 These sleepers then go into Ephesus, 50 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,500 and nothing looks the same. 51 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,360 Something they noticed is that there are Christian crosses 52 00:03:15,460 --> 00:03:20,300 everywhere because by now Christianity is taken over. 53 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,400 The Seven Sleepers of Ephesus, you think, OK, 54 00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:23,760 is it that there's a miracle here? 55 00:03:23,860 --> 00:03:28,040 Or have they been in a place where the timeline has shifted? 56 00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:31,140 And so what seems 300 years to them 57 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,740 has been a much shorter amount of time. 58 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,340 While many scholars regard this story as fictional, 59 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,320 millions of Christians and Muslims 60 00:03:40,420 --> 00:03:43,020 believe a true miracle took place, 61 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,920 and that these seven warriors were transported into the future. 62 00:03:47,980 --> 00:03:51,720 In fact, hundreds of graves have been found at the grotto 63 00:03:51,820 --> 00:03:54,120 dating back to the fifth century, 64 00:03:54,220 --> 00:03:56,420 along with inscriptions indicating 65 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,360 that people were buried there because it 66 00:03:58,460 --> 00:04:01,660 was considered a location of great power. 67 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,300 Today, it remains a popular pilgrimage site, 68 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,000 serving as a testament to humankind's preoccupation 69 00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:12,040 with one of the most significant and least understood 70 00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:16,040 forces in the universe, time. 71 00:04:16,140 --> 00:04:17,240 What is time? 72 00:04:17,300 --> 00:04:18,460 That's a great question. 73 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,360 It's a fundamental question. 74 00:04:21,460 --> 00:04:26,100 We all normally live along the straight line of time 75 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,440 from the past, present, to the future. 76 00:04:28,540 --> 00:04:30,980 But the question is, is there a way around that? 77 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,080 A way to travel through time. 78 00:04:34,180 --> 00:04:36,340 Time is important to us. 79 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,120 The passage of time is an item of grief 80 00:04:39,220 --> 00:04:41,880 that we all know is universal. 81 00:04:41,980 --> 00:04:46,920 We have a kind of longing to defeat time. 82 00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:49,620 Why has time travel stuck around for so long 83 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,120 in human consciousness? 84 00:04:51,220 --> 00:04:54,620 I think this idea that you can go into the ancient past 85 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,500 or travel into the future is the ultimate trip. 86 00:05:01,540 --> 00:05:04,540 The notion of breaking free from the seemingly inescapable 87 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,240 bonds of time has existed in the human imagination 88 00:05:08,340 --> 00:05:10,280 for centuries. 89 00:05:10,380 --> 00:05:12,680 But modern concepts of time travel 90 00:05:12,780 --> 00:05:15,880 are largely credited to science fiction author H.G. 91 00:05:15,940 --> 00:05:20,380 Wells, who in his 1895 book, The Time Machine, 92 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,840 speculated as to how time travel might 93 00:05:22,940 --> 00:05:25,820 be scientifically possible. 94 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,220 H.G. Wells began to say to himself, 95 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,260 if we can move in space, why can't we move in time? 96 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,100 And that's the beginning of his novel, The Time Machine. 97 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,360 H.G. Wells said it takes three coordinates 98 00:05:41,460 --> 00:05:43,500 to locate an object in space. 99 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,560 Time, therefore, is the fourth dimension. 100 00:05:46,660 --> 00:05:49,860 We need four coordinates to identify any event 101 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,560 in our universe. 102 00:05:52,660 --> 00:05:58,440 H.G. Wells talked about the idea that space and time were 103 00:05:58,540 --> 00:06:00,380 somehow linked together. 104 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,480 And the protagonist of the book was 105 00:06:03,580 --> 00:06:07,280 able to go at will anytime into the future 106 00:06:07,380 --> 00:06:10,720 or anytime into the past to actually experience 107 00:06:10,820 --> 00:06:11,980 and see what was going on. 108 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,500 Could humankind one day be able to travel back in time 109 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,760 or even into the future? 110 00:06:19,860 --> 00:06:23,160 Incredibly, just a decade after the publication 111 00:06:23,260 --> 00:06:25,800 of The Time Machine, Albert Einstein 112 00:06:25,900 --> 00:06:29,340 proposed a similar vision of time travel. 113 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:35,540 H.G. Wells in 1895 mentioned the idea of time and space 114 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,180 being connected. 115 00:06:38,280 --> 00:06:40,820 This is interesting because Albert Einstein came up 116 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,820 with a theory of relativity, where 117 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,720 he also proposed that time and space are connected. 118 00:06:47,820 --> 00:06:51,520 Time used to be thought of in Newtonian classical physics 119 00:06:51,620 --> 00:06:53,020 as something absolute. 120 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,020 It didn't change. 121 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,860 It was the same for everybody everywhere. 122 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,460 Einstein came along in 1905, published a paper 123 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,200 on special relativity, and demonstrated 124 00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:03,840 that time is actually relative. 125 00:07:03,940 --> 00:07:06,280 Now, in Einstein's theory, space and time 126 00:07:06,380 --> 00:07:07,300 are linked to each other. 127 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,940 That's why it's called space-time. 128 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,240 Whatever you do to space also happens to time. 129 00:07:12,260 --> 00:07:15,540 A rotating black hole can cause a twisting of space. 130 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,300 Time is linked to space. 131 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,340 So if I'm twisting space, I can twist time. 132 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,180 Mathematically, this has been shown. 133 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,180 I can travel from the future back into the past. 134 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,080 We haven't been able to do it yet experimentally, 135 00:07:34,180 --> 00:07:36,360 but it's a real part of Einstein's general theory 136 00:07:36,460 --> 00:07:38,660 of relativity. 137 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,760 Is it possible that space-time can be manipulated to travel 138 00:07:42,860 --> 00:07:44,520 into the past? 139 00:07:44,620 --> 00:07:47,660 And if so, how close is modern science 140 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,700 to achieving such an incredible feat? 141 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,880 The University of Connecticut, 2021. 142 00:07:56,980 --> 00:08:00,640 Theoretical physicist and professor Dr. Ronald Mallett 143 00:08:00,740 --> 00:08:03,080 works closely with a team of researchers 144 00:08:03,180 --> 00:08:06,780 on a project to realize his lifelong dream. 145 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,080 The creation of a time machine. 146 00:08:10,180 --> 00:08:12,840 By using a mechanism called a ring laser, 147 00:08:12,940 --> 00:08:16,680 Dr. Mallett believes that he can manipulate the fabric of space 148 00:08:16,780 --> 00:08:20,360 and time to create a door that can open to the past. 149 00:08:22,860 --> 00:08:25,860 What I did was I solved Einstein's gravitational field 150 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,060 equations, and I was able to show that a circulating beam 151 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,400 of laser light will cause a twisting of space. 152 00:08:34,460 --> 00:08:35,720 There is a device. 153 00:08:35,820 --> 00:08:37,120 It's called a ring laser. 154 00:08:37,220 --> 00:08:42,060 All it is is a device that causes light to move around in a loop. 155 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,260 You can get it to do that in a number of different ways, 156 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,300 balancing off mirrors, for example. 157 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,140 And I was able to show that a circulating beam of laser 158 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,840 light will cause a twisting of space. 159 00:08:52,940 --> 00:08:56,540 What I was able to show further is that if this twisting of space 160 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,380 was strong enough, it could lead to time being twisted 161 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,620 into a loop. 162 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,280 And these loops in time could allow 163 00:09:03,300 --> 00:09:06,240 for the possibility of time travel in the past. 164 00:09:06,340 --> 00:09:08,780 This is all anchored in Einstein's general theory 165 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,280 of relativity. 166 00:09:11,380 --> 00:09:15,620 While Dr. Mallett's time machine may be theoretically sound, 167 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,720 one major hurdle stands in his way, 168 00:09:18,820 --> 00:09:22,120 harnessing massive amounts of energy. 169 00:09:22,220 --> 00:09:25,000 The real constraint with a time machine at the moment 170 00:09:25,100 --> 00:09:26,960 is the energy involved, because you 171 00:09:27,060 --> 00:09:30,340 have to bend the dimension that's time. 172 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,460 The energy at which you can create a gateway through space 173 00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:37,740 and time is called the Planck energy. 174 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,940 The Planck energy is a quadrillion times more powerful 175 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:48,180 than our most powerful machine, the large Hadron Collider. 176 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,680 We're talking about the energy of a star, perhaps 177 00:09:51,780 --> 00:09:54,520 an alien civilization and not a space. 178 00:09:54,620 --> 00:09:57,020 Thousands of years more advanced than us 179 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,860 may be able to access the Planck energy 180 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:03,160 that cannot be ruled out. 181 00:10:03,260 --> 00:10:06,760 If extraterrestrial civilizations have the technology 182 00:10:06,860 --> 00:10:09,460 to traverse the vast distances of space, 183 00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:12,460 as ancient astronaut theorists suggest, 184 00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:14,500 might they have also mastered the ability 185 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,260 to travel through time? 186 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,340 Perhaps further clues can be found 187 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,480 by examining incredible stories of time travel 188 00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:25,580 found in some of the earliest texts ever written. 189 00:10:30,860 --> 00:10:35,860 Houston, Texas, 2016. 190 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,760 After a record-breaking 340 days aboard the International 191 00:10:39,860 --> 00:10:42,660 Space Station, astronaut Scott Kelly 192 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,800 returns to the NASA Johnson Space Center. 193 00:10:46,900 --> 00:10:49,780 The mission was designed to help researchers understand 194 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:54,580 the effects of long-term spaceflight on the human body. 195 00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:58,020 Scott's identical twin brother and former astronaut, 196 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:03,120 Mark Kelly, remained on Earth to serve as the control subject. 197 00:11:03,220 --> 00:11:07,220 While Scott was in space, his immune system was more active. 198 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,120 His vision deteriorated, and he lost more bone mass 199 00:11:11,220 --> 00:11:12,920 compared to Mark. 200 00:11:13,020 --> 00:11:15,100 But perhaps the most significant difference 201 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,440 was that for Scott, time had slowed down. 202 00:11:19,540 --> 00:11:24,200 When they measured the aging acceleration of Scott Kelly 203 00:11:24,220 --> 00:11:27,960 and Mark Kelly, the twins, it turns out 204 00:11:28,060 --> 00:11:35,600 that Scott was 0.5 milliseconds younger than Mark. 205 00:11:35,700 --> 00:11:38,100 And so what's going on here? 206 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,740 So that actually fits with time dilation. 207 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,920 It's a phenomena that we have observed to be real, 208 00:11:45,020 --> 00:11:47,680 that the closer you go to the speed of light, 209 00:11:47,780 --> 00:11:50,680 the more time slows down for you. 210 00:11:50,780 --> 00:11:53,180 According to Einstein's theory, especially 211 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:59,040 relativity, the faster you move, the slower time gets. 212 00:11:59,140 --> 00:12:02,640 So if you have a telescope and could look inside a rocket ship 213 00:12:02,740 --> 00:12:04,680 speeding near the speed of light, 214 00:12:04,780 --> 00:12:08,720 everyone inside that rocket would be frozen, 215 00:12:08,820 --> 00:12:12,260 moving at a different rate in time. 216 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,300 Given that the space station orbits around the planet Earth 217 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,060 at about 17,500 miles per hour, you 218 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,900 can actually calculate how slow time must 219 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,460 beat on the space station. 220 00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:28,560 And so we can actually measure this effect in the laboratory. 221 00:12:28,660 --> 00:12:31,060 Imagine in the future when we have rockets that 222 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,300 can go close to the speed of light. 223 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,940 They could find that days, maybe years, 224 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,600 had passed for the people on board the rocket. 225 00:12:38,700 --> 00:12:40,880 But when they come back, they would find out 226 00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:43,940 that decades had passed here on the Earth. 227 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,220 They could come back and find that they are younger 228 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,880 than their children. 229 00:12:48,980 --> 00:12:51,380 Time travel to the future is real. 230 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,880 We've seen the baby steps of it, but it has happened. 231 00:12:55,980 --> 00:12:59,880 If space travel has revealed to humankind the possibilities 232 00:12:59,980 --> 00:13:02,420 that exist for manipulating time, 233 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,280 is it possible that somewhere in the vast expanse 234 00:13:05,380 --> 00:13:08,120 of the universe, other intelligent beings 235 00:13:08,220 --> 00:13:10,820 have advanced to the point where they are able to move 236 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,360 through time as easily as space? 237 00:13:15,460 --> 00:13:17,700 Ancient astronaut theorists believe 238 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,400 evidence can be found in ancient texts 239 00:13:20,460 --> 00:13:23,520 that our ancestors may have already witnessed, 240 00:13:23,620 --> 00:13:27,260 or even experienced, the bending of time. 241 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,100 There's this wonderful book of stories, 242 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,700 an epic in Hindu culture, the Mahabharata, 243 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,800 written in the third century before the common era. 244 00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:38,100 But this was writing down oral traditions that 245 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,040 were much, much older than that. 246 00:13:40,140 --> 00:13:43,480 And one of the tales is when King Raveta goes up 247 00:13:43,580 --> 00:13:47,480 into the heavens and meets God, the great creator God Brahma 248 00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:48,780 himself. 249 00:13:49,540 --> 00:13:54,440 King Raveta was actually taken into the heavens in a chariot 250 00:13:54,540 --> 00:13:57,740 to visit this gigantic palace that 251 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,180 was in the celestial realm. 252 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,480 And when King Raveta came back, much to his surprise, 253 00:14:04,580 --> 00:14:08,020 he did not recognize a single person that 254 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,420 was in his neighborhood. 255 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,660 In fact, it turns out that he had returned hundreds of years 256 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,000 later. 257 00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:17,860 Now, how is such a thing even possible? 258 00:14:18,860 --> 00:14:23,120 Here we have what is perhaps the first story of time 259 00:14:23,220 --> 00:14:27,260 dilation, where someone has gone up into space, 260 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,860 and say a spaceship, and all this time has passed, 261 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:37,800 which is exactly what Einstein had talked about in 1905, 262 00:14:37,900 --> 00:14:42,640 only this is a story from thousands of years ago. 263 00:14:42,740 --> 00:14:46,680 Could King Raveta's experience be a historical account 264 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:53,040 of a time dilation event that occurred thousands of years ago? 265 00:14:53,140 --> 00:14:56,080 For ancient astronaut theorists, this possibility 266 00:14:56,180 --> 00:14:59,080 is made stronger when considering the fact that 267 00:14:59,180 --> 00:15:02,680 similar stories were told in other parts of the world, 268 00:15:02,780 --> 00:15:05,920 like in Egypt, where ancient hieroglyphs describe 269 00:15:06,020 --> 00:15:11,260 a celestial craft called the solar barge of Ra. 270 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,900 There are many references in ancient Egypt 271 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:19,300 about Ra's solar barge, which was this vehicle that they 272 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,300 described that they saw cross the sky. 273 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:29,480 This solar barge is also known as the ship of a million years. 274 00:15:29,580 --> 00:15:32,720 According to an ancient document known as the Turin 275 00:15:32,820 --> 00:15:36,580 King List, which contains a record of all Egyptian rulers 276 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:41,120 up until 1300 BC, the earliest pharaohs 277 00:15:41,380 --> 00:15:45,420 lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. 278 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,180 These were the pharaohs who were said 279 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,620 to have journeyed to the stars on the solar barge of Ra. 280 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,820 You look at some of these records from the Egyptians, 281 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,120 and you think, well, OK, if there 282 00:15:56,220 --> 00:15:58,460 is this phenomenon of time dilation, 283 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,500 if these pharaohs really are traveling on craft 284 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,000 at very high speeds, then when they come back, 285 00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:07,800 they're still young, the earth has aged tremendously, 286 00:16:07,900 --> 00:16:10,400 and so is that part of it? 287 00:16:10,460 --> 00:16:12,400 Is that how you have pharaohs that 288 00:16:12,500 --> 00:16:14,520 lived hundreds of years? 289 00:16:14,620 --> 00:16:17,100 You see this effect that we now call time dilation 290 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,160 in various ancient cultures. 291 00:16:20,260 --> 00:16:23,900 There is an artifact at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, 292 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:30,480 England that is called the WB44 Kings List of Ancient Sumeria. 293 00:16:30,580 --> 00:16:35,840 It lists the exact reigning periods of all the kings 294 00:16:35,940 --> 00:16:37,880 of ancient Sumeria. 295 00:16:38,460 --> 00:16:45,300 The total is 266,000 years, and there 296 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:50,300 are crazy reigning periods that are recorded very specifically, 297 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:57,000 and I think they knew perfectly well how to record time. 298 00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:59,240 You have these figures in the Bible 299 00:16:59,340 --> 00:17:01,080 that live for hundreds of years. 300 00:17:01,180 --> 00:17:05,480 The oldest figure in the Bible is Mthuselah, 301 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,320 the grandfather of Noah, and he dies. 302 00:17:08,420 --> 00:17:12,660 The Bible tells us the age of 969. 303 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,960 According to the Hebrew Bible, Mthuselah's father, Enoch, 304 00:17:17,060 --> 00:17:19,960 left the earth in a fiery chariot 305 00:17:20,060 --> 00:17:23,800 and was 365 years old when God chose for him 306 00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:27,840 to remain in the heavenly realm. 307 00:17:27,940 --> 00:17:31,380 All other pre-flood patriarchs are recorded as living 308 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,480 for more than 700 years. 309 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,420 Certainly one way that they would be able to have 310 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,060 these incredibly extended lives would 311 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,760 be that they are traveling through space and coming back, 312 00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:49,100 and therefore 400, 900 years can go by, 313 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,800 and that's essentially their age on earth. 314 00:17:53,900 --> 00:17:58,340 These concepts should not be described by our ancestors 315 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,340 because it should have exceeded their knowledge at the time. 316 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,240 But the fact that multiple stories exist where someone 317 00:18:06,340 --> 00:18:12,580 wakes up or gets returned hundreds of years after certain events, 318 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,880 that's strange. 319 00:18:16,780 --> 00:18:20,480 Could these stories be historical accounts of ancient people 320 00:18:20,580 --> 00:18:23,260 experiencing time dilation after traveling 321 00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:26,700 aboard alien spacecraft? 322 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,060 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes 323 00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:34,160 and suggest other accounts, both ancient and modern, 324 00:18:34,260 --> 00:18:37,300 may reveal that extraterrestrials have the ability 325 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,300 to manipulate time in even more extraordinary ways. 326 00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:53,340 And over England, 1935, Royal Air Force Wing Commander Sir 327 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,340 Robert Victor Goddard is dispatched 328 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,440 to inspect an old, disused airfield near Edinburgh, 329 00:18:59,540 --> 00:19:01,100 Scotland. 330 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,100 Sir Robert Victor Goddard was flying over an airfield 331 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,440 to survey and see if the airfield could be used in the future. 332 00:19:09,540 --> 00:19:12,080 And while he's flying over, he knows there's cracks in the air 333 00:19:12,180 --> 00:19:13,940 field and there's grass growing up and cows 334 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,520 are eating the grass and so on. 335 00:19:15,620 --> 00:19:18,520 He's flying home, and he gets kind of lost or turned around 336 00:19:18,620 --> 00:19:20,180 a bit in a storm. 337 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,420 So he decides to fly back to where he was to get up airing. 338 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:29,740 On the return journey, he encountered very strange yellow 339 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,880 and brown clouds. 340 00:19:32,980 --> 00:19:37,720 Almost like he entered into some kind of otherworldly portal. 341 00:19:37,820 --> 00:19:43,460 And he came out of there and found himself in bright sunlight. 342 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,700 And going over the same airfield, everything was renovated. 343 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,800 And there were aircraft out there on the tarmac, 344 00:19:52,860 --> 00:19:54,960 but they were painted yellow. 345 00:19:55,060 --> 00:20:00,760 And there were people tending these aircraft dressed in blue. 346 00:20:00,860 --> 00:20:04,540 When Goddard landed and told his colleagues what he saw, 347 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,280 they insisted it was not possible, 348 00:20:07,380 --> 00:20:10,880 since RAF planes were painted silver at that time 349 00:20:10,980 --> 00:20:15,180 and mechanics uniforms were tan-colored. 350 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,720 However, just a few years later, the RAF 351 00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:21,280 changed the color of both their training planes 352 00:20:21,340 --> 00:20:24,500 and mechanics uniforms, which Goddard witnessed 353 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,440 when he flew over Drem airfield again in 1939. 354 00:20:29,540 --> 00:20:36,480 He's making another flight and realizes there are the planes. 355 00:20:36,580 --> 00:20:39,680 At Drem, they are painting them yellow. 356 00:20:39,780 --> 00:20:42,520 The people have on blue uniforms. 357 00:20:42,620 --> 00:20:47,160 It is exactly what he remembered seeing when he came out 358 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:54,140 from beyond this yellow cloud four years before in 1935. 359 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,240 Some people have suggested that Victor Goddard's experience 360 00:20:58,340 --> 00:21:00,380 could be extraterrestrial in nature, 361 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,120 and that just maybe he was thrust through time 362 00:21:04,220 --> 00:21:09,280 by yellow and brown cloud that he encountered. 363 00:21:09,380 --> 00:21:13,660 There are many examples of these weird clouds 364 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,860 being encountered in different parts of the world. 365 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,360 Ancient astronaut theorists propose 366 00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:23,100 that an alien civilization advanced enough 367 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,700 to achieve interstellar travel may also 368 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,840 possess the technology to create portals through time. 369 00:21:29,940 --> 00:21:32,240 And they suggest further evidence 370 00:21:32,340 --> 00:21:34,980 that such gateways have been established here on Earth 371 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,980 can be found by examining the extraordinary events that 372 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,580 have occurred in the Bermuda Triangle. 373 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:51,080 The Bahamas, December 4, 1970. 374 00:21:51,180 --> 00:21:54,860 At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, pilot Bruce Gernon 375 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,560 departs from Andros Island bound for Palm Beach, Florida, 376 00:21:58,660 --> 00:22:01,700 just north of Miami. 377 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,560 It's a route that he's flown many times before 378 00:22:04,660 --> 00:22:06,600 without incident. 379 00:22:06,660 --> 00:22:10,900 But this flight will be unlike any other. 380 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,400 Since I've been flying for 47 years now, 381 00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:20,580 I've had a lot of flights in that area. 382 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,940 But this experience, I'll never forget. 383 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,540 I'll start at the 100 miles east of Miami 384 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:33,760 when I found myself surrounded by this strange storm. 385 00:22:33,820 --> 00:22:37,380 Time started changing instantly. 386 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,960 And I believe I actually got to see the fabric of time 387 00:22:41,060 --> 00:22:46,460 itself as I watched the tunnel rotate. 388 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,240 When I reached the other end, the tunnel collapsed. 389 00:22:51,340 --> 00:22:55,840 And I reached the shoreline of Miami Beach. 390 00:22:55,940 --> 00:22:59,740 It only took three minutes and 20 seconds 391 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,020 to fly 100 miles. 392 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:08,680 I should have been able to fly only 10 miles approximately, 393 00:23:08,780 --> 00:23:11,880 not 100 miles. 394 00:23:11,980 --> 00:23:14,320 I think that what he must have experienced 395 00:23:14,420 --> 00:23:17,020 is perhaps some kind of a time shift, 396 00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:20,160 or he entered into an anomalous vortex 397 00:23:20,260 --> 00:23:23,260 that perhaps was some kind of a time portal. 398 00:23:23,360 --> 00:23:29,100 We don't know, but it's a very curious example of time travel. 399 00:23:29,360 --> 00:23:32,560 Could it be that the route Bruce Gernon traveled led him 400 00:23:32,660 --> 00:23:35,260 into a portal through time? 401 00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:38,500 As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, 402 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,200 this incredible possibility is even more intriguing 403 00:23:42,300 --> 00:23:46,940 because of the area where it happened, the Bermuda Triangle. 404 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:52,880 The Bermuda Triangle is really located off of Florida. 405 00:23:52,980 --> 00:23:56,180 The northern point of it is the island of Bermuda. 406 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,640 It then goes down to essentially southern Florida 407 00:23:59,740 --> 00:24:01,840 and then out into the Bahamas. 408 00:24:01,940 --> 00:24:04,940 And this is an area that has historically 409 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,380 had strange phenomenon. 410 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,180 While Gernon was fortunate enough to have survived 411 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:14,020 his harrowing experience, many ships and aircraft traveling 412 00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:17,560 through this region have disappeared without a trace. 413 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,560 In one extraordinary case that occurred on December 5, 414 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:31,920 1945, five Navy Avenger torpedo bombers known as Flight 19 415 00:24:32,020 --> 00:24:36,020 all went missing at the same time. 416 00:24:36,120 --> 00:24:40,760 All five of their compasses were not working correctly, 417 00:24:40,860 --> 00:24:43,060 and they had two navigational instruments 418 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,260 that they could use, and they were not working properly 419 00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:47,760 either. 420 00:24:47,860 --> 00:24:50,600 The planes disappeared from radar, 421 00:24:50,700 --> 00:24:53,800 and their last communication consisted of nothing, 422 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:54,900 but iristatic. 423 00:24:58,340 --> 00:25:01,540 The Navy immediately sent a team to search for the missing 424 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,780 bombers, but they never recovered any debris. 425 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:14,120 Is it possible that the Bermuda Triangle is subject 426 00:25:14,220 --> 00:25:20,620 to portals or vortexes that create these mysteries? 427 00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:25,080 What we do know is that it is a place of intensive 428 00:25:25,180 --> 00:25:28,620 electromagnetic activity, and this 429 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,480 is something that we can tell from the fact 430 00:25:31,580 --> 00:25:36,960 that so many aircraft and ships experience problems 431 00:25:37,060 --> 00:25:38,700 with their instrumentation. 432 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:45,000 Mike the Bermuda Triangle, being a electromagnetic hotspot, 433 00:25:45,100 --> 00:25:50,500 were portals capable of manipulating time, open and close. 434 00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:53,620 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, 435 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,000 and they believe that these portals may help explain 436 00:25:57,100 --> 00:26:00,800 some of the strange, otherworldly activity reported 437 00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:03,140 in the area. 438 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:08,100 Many UFO sightings and more modern UAP videos 439 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,640 that have been released show unusual flight dynamics 440 00:26:11,740 --> 00:26:14,640 and capabilities of these whatever they are. 441 00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:17,840 Well, it may be they're creating portals in our universe 442 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,680 and in our time, in our space that they can move in and out 443 00:26:20,780 --> 00:26:22,640 of at will. 444 00:26:22,740 --> 00:26:24,920 There's no reason to say they can't 445 00:26:25,020 --> 00:26:28,520 until we know what they are. 446 00:26:28,620 --> 00:26:31,460 Is it possible that visitors from other worlds 447 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,220 are utilizing portals in the Bermuda Triangle 448 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,000 to travel through time and space? 449 00:26:38,100 --> 00:26:42,240 And if so, do such portals already exist naturally? 450 00:26:42,340 --> 00:26:46,800 Or are they being created with some type of extraterrestrial 451 00:26:46,860 --> 00:26:48,840 technology? 452 00:26:48,940 --> 00:26:52,340 Perhaps the answer can be found by examining the account 453 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,740 of a UFO witness who claims to have received a message 454 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:57,680 from the future. 455 00:27:02,980 --> 00:27:05,220 In Suffolk County, England, there 456 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,860 is a remote forest in the village of Rendlesham 457 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,020 that has become famous for being the site of one 458 00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:15,200 of the most extraordinary UFO encounters ever reported. 459 00:27:15,220 --> 00:27:17,260 And some of those who experienced it 460 00:27:17,360 --> 00:27:21,460 believe this incident also involved time travel. 461 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,700 The event occurred on December 26, 1980. 462 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,140 Airman John Burroughs was performing a routine security 463 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,040 check at a US Air Force Base when he received orders 464 00:27:33,140 --> 00:27:36,240 to investigate a possible downed aircraft. 465 00:27:36,340 --> 00:27:37,780 My supervisor called me on the radio 466 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:38,880 and asked me to meet up with him 467 00:27:38,980 --> 00:27:41,020 so we could check these gate. 468 00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:43,180 We're driving down the road leading to these gate 469 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,640 to check on it when all of a sudden he 470 00:27:45,740 --> 00:27:49,480 saw some strange lights in the forest. 471 00:27:49,580 --> 00:27:50,940 So I decided to call it in and let 472 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,780 me know something strange was going on. 473 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,480 They decided to send one of the security units down, which 474 00:27:56,580 --> 00:27:57,920 was Sergeant Penison. 475 00:27:58,020 --> 00:28:00,180 He got down there and he saw the same strange lights 476 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:00,880 that we were seeing. 477 00:28:03,620 --> 00:28:05,560 I could see all these multiple color lights and things 478 00:28:05,660 --> 00:28:06,760 like that. 479 00:28:06,860 --> 00:28:08,460 And the air felt different. 480 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,460 I don't know how to really explain that, 481 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,560 but it did feel like there was electricity on our skin 482 00:28:15,660 --> 00:28:16,860 and hair and stuff. 483 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,560 But that progressively got worse the closer we got to the tree 484 00:28:20,660 --> 00:28:23,660 line and it got more intense. 485 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,840 There seemed to be like an electricity charged atmosphere. 486 00:28:27,940 --> 00:28:29,600 And then also there were points where 487 00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:32,440 it seemed like everything was going in slow motion. 488 00:28:32,540 --> 00:28:35,440 As the servicemen approached the strange lights, 489 00:28:35,540 --> 00:28:39,040 Sergeant Penison reportedly saw a large craft just 490 00:28:39,140 --> 00:28:40,780 beyond the tree line. 491 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,780 The craft was triangular in shape, 492 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,280 measuring about 6 to 7 feet high, black in color. 493 00:28:47,380 --> 00:28:49,980 I had come around to the far side of the craft 494 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,480 and that's when I noticed that there was inscription on the side. 495 00:28:53,580 --> 00:28:58,320 It was about 3 feet long, maybe 6 inches high. 496 00:28:58,420 --> 00:29:01,800 And so I'm expecting to find, I don't know, 497 00:29:01,900 --> 00:29:04,500 some kind of prototype stuff, USAF. 498 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,240 I'm looking for something very familiar. 499 00:29:08,260 --> 00:29:11,160 Instead of something familiar, I see these pictorial type 500 00:29:11,260 --> 00:29:16,140 glyphs and got running my hand over the side of the craft. 501 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,940 I don't know how to explain this. 502 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,040 It's like someone was holding a picture of it, OK? 503 00:29:21,140 --> 00:29:24,180 I could see it in my mind's eye. 504 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,120 Zeroes, lungs. 505 00:29:27,220 --> 00:29:31,320 So I recorded those one after another. 506 00:29:31,420 --> 00:29:34,720 When Peniston touched the craft, he then 507 00:29:34,780 --> 00:29:40,380 said that he felt a strange download of information 508 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,120 to his mind and he felt compelled the next day 509 00:29:44,220 --> 00:29:48,620 to write down a series of zeros and ones, which we now 510 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,300 regard as binary code. 511 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:56,800 Years later, a computer programmer took this information, 512 00:29:56,900 --> 00:29:59,940 ran it through a translation program, 513 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,140 and a message emerged. 514 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,240 The message read, exploration of humanity, 515 00:30:07,340 --> 00:30:11,640 continuous for planetary advance, 516 00:30:11,740 --> 00:30:18,720 eyes of your eyes, origin year 8,100. 517 00:30:18,820 --> 00:30:23,960 When one sees origin year 8,100, one 518 00:30:24,060 --> 00:30:26,760 is forced to speculate, might we be looking not just 519 00:30:26,860 --> 00:30:32,560 at extraterrestrials, but time travelers from the future? 520 00:30:32,580 --> 00:30:34,960 After the incident, the US military 521 00:30:35,060 --> 00:30:38,460 conducted a brief investigation, but allegedly 522 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:43,160 tried to keep the eyewitnesses away from the press. 523 00:30:43,260 --> 00:30:46,060 But for airmen burrows and officer Peniston, 524 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,540 the event wasn't easy to leave behind. 525 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,280 Both men had lasting physical effects from the encounter 526 00:30:54,380 --> 00:30:57,580 and even reported strange dreams. 527 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,680 After the incident, I started having throat and eye problems. 528 00:31:01,740 --> 00:31:03,900 At one point, my gums turned white. 529 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,340 I also had vision problems, and when I went and saw the doctor, 530 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,740 one of his first questions was, had I been ever exposed 531 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,980 to radiation? 532 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,620 I've definitely had dreams about it, 533 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,780 and I still have feelings about what happened 534 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,160 and what could happen in the future. 535 00:31:21,260 --> 00:31:26,260 I got an O.S. service in 1993. 536 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,800 Then I was out about maybe three months, 537 00:31:28,900 --> 00:31:31,060 and then I started getting these dreams. 538 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,720 And nightmares. 539 00:31:33,820 --> 00:31:37,820 During the dreams, I could see that these were time travelers, 540 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,820 40,000 to 50,000 years in the future. 541 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,460 I see that the purpose to come back 542 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,300 was to correct things, was to fix things. 543 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,240 Something horrible has happened. 544 00:31:51,340 --> 00:31:56,980 Something I have to correct, but it requires time travel. 545 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:01,000 It requires going back into the past. 546 00:32:01,100 --> 00:32:05,740 I've never had a feeling of it being extraterrestrial. 547 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:14,680 It's always been that they were simply us in the future. 548 00:32:14,780 --> 00:32:16,780 Could it be that the craft reportedly 549 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,080 witnessed by James Peniston and John Burroughs 550 00:32:20,180 --> 00:32:25,760 came not from a distant star, but from a distant point in time? 551 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,800 Perhaps further clues can be found 552 00:32:27,900 --> 00:32:31,500 by examining trends in evolution and what humans 553 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,440 may look like in the future. 554 00:32:37,340 --> 00:32:38,740 Coming up. 555 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,680 If we look at past trends in our biological form, 556 00:32:42,780 --> 00:32:46,220 we see that we're likely to look very similar to what's most 557 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,020 commonly described in these instances of close encounters. 558 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,860 Butte, Montana, 2019. 559 00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:02,200 Professor of Biological Anthropology 560 00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:05,160 at Montana Technological University, 561 00:33:05,260 --> 00:33:10,540 Dr. Michael Masters publishes Identified Flying Objects. 562 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,340 This groundbreaking book explores the profound notion 563 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,240 that the UFO phenomenon may involve our distant human 564 00:33:18,340 --> 00:33:24,220 descendants traveling backward across the landscape of time. 565 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,380 One of the big questions about backward time travel 566 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,080 is, why aren't we inundated by time tourists 567 00:33:30,180 --> 00:33:32,380 if backward time travel exists? 568 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,220 And the answer may simply be, we do. 569 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,560 We do see them in the form of UFOs 570 00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:42,000 and the form of these alien beings that are most likely 571 00:33:42,100 --> 00:33:44,400 traveling backwards from the human future 572 00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:47,200 using more advanced technology and with a more advanced 573 00:33:47,300 --> 00:33:50,700 physical form than what we have now. 574 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,800 Dr. Masters points out that current accounts 575 00:33:53,900 --> 00:33:56,900 of humanoid aliens, the grays in particular, 576 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:01,300 bear a striking resemblance to what many biologists predict 577 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,780 humans may look like in the distant future. 578 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,840 If we look at past trends in our biological form 579 00:34:07,940 --> 00:34:10,880 and in our technology, we see the same dominant trends 580 00:34:10,980 --> 00:34:12,280 in our morphology. 581 00:34:12,380 --> 00:34:14,820 Our neurocrania have become enlarged, 582 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,220 becoming more rounded. 583 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,760 Our mid-facial and lower-facial anatomy 584 00:34:18,820 --> 00:34:20,380 has retracted. 585 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,480 If these are to continue into the future, 586 00:34:22,580 --> 00:34:25,960 we're likely to look very similar to what's most commonly 587 00:34:26,060 --> 00:34:28,860 described in these instances of close encounters, 588 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:34,800 where the beings have big heads, small faces, big eyes. 589 00:34:34,900 --> 00:34:38,640 Many of the types of aliens, if you like, 590 00:34:38,740 --> 00:34:41,400 or strange beings that are in these crafts, 591 00:34:41,500 --> 00:34:42,940 they're often taller. 592 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,080 They've got larger heads, larger eyes. 593 00:34:45,180 --> 00:34:47,520 And that could be a sign of evolution 594 00:34:47,540 --> 00:34:50,680 of our species going thousands or possibly hundreds 595 00:34:50,780 --> 00:34:53,580 of thousands of years into the future. 596 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,560 Could the so-called gray aliens that many people believe 597 00:34:57,660 --> 00:35:02,120 they've encountered actually be human time travelers? 598 00:35:02,220 --> 00:35:05,320 According to some researchers, further evidence 599 00:35:05,420 --> 00:35:08,160 that Earth is being visited by future humans 600 00:35:08,260 --> 00:35:10,940 can be found by examining accounts 601 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,340 of unidentified flying objects. 602 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,300 If we look at the craft, too, they 603 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,520 seem to have a form that indicates the function 604 00:35:19,620 --> 00:35:21,160 of backward time travel. 605 00:35:21,260 --> 00:35:23,200 It's very consistent with research 606 00:35:23,300 --> 00:35:26,860 since Einstein's paper in 1915 demonstrating 607 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,500 how the rotation of a massive or highly energetic disc 608 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:35,880 or cylinder could create backward time travel capabilities. 609 00:35:35,980 --> 00:35:41,680 Sometimes I ask myself, these UFOs are not time travelers. 610 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:48,640 It's our own people of the future who study some history. 611 00:35:48,740 --> 00:35:51,280 And they sent some vehicles to measure, 612 00:35:51,380 --> 00:35:53,920 to observe, to photograph us. 613 00:35:54,020 --> 00:35:56,420 But they don't make direct contact. 614 00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,820 So I would exclude nothing, not even time travel. 615 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,200 But if future humans have traveled back in time, 616 00:36:04,300 --> 00:36:07,300 are they simply observing events of the past? 617 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,100 Or could they have a more profound agenda? 618 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,420 One of the other ideas relating to this 619 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,600 is the idea that ourselves from the future 620 00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:18,960 are actually trying to help us in some way. 621 00:36:19,060 --> 00:36:21,340 There's some kind of interaction going on. 622 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:22,900 They could be giving us information 623 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,940 about advances in technology. 624 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,680 They could be giving us information about other planets. 625 00:36:29,780 --> 00:36:32,340 They could be giving us scientific data 626 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,920 that we need to survive that they know about in the future. 627 00:36:36,020 --> 00:36:40,220 But we're yet to get to that point. 628 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:44,140 Could they be coming back to help evolve us in some way, 629 00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:49,220 to help us learn new technologies and innovations, 630 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:54,420 perhaps to steer us towards their own future? 631 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,860 Maybe these technologies involve everything 632 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:04,060 from quantum computers to nuclear fusion to AI 633 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,700 and even nanotechnology. 634 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,000 All of these are at the cutting edge of science 635 00:37:10,020 --> 00:37:12,720 and we are actually looking for answers 636 00:37:12,820 --> 00:37:18,300 to how to better perfect these technologies. 637 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,960 If UFOs are crap from our future, 638 00:37:22,060 --> 00:37:24,600 if the beings seen in association with them 639 00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:28,440 are our distant descendants, and they crashed into Roswell, 640 00:37:28,540 --> 00:37:32,940 New Mexico in 1947, it's possible that we've 641 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,240 been reverse engineering this technology, 642 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:40,680 and not just for the purposes of flying through space 643 00:37:40,780 --> 00:37:44,540 at tremendous speeds or having anti-gravity propulsion 644 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,220 systems, but also potentially to figure out 645 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,420 how to travel through time. 646 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,480 We may be eventually reaching the point 647 00:37:51,580 --> 00:37:53,920 where that technology is ours, coming back through time 648 00:37:54,020 --> 00:37:56,020 again, where there's this constant loop 649 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,760 through the past and the future. 650 00:37:59,860 --> 00:38:02,620 If time travel is possible, could it 651 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,720 be that Earth is being visited by both extraterrestrials 652 00:38:06,820 --> 00:38:10,420 and humans from our own future? 653 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,760 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining the possibility 654 00:38:14,860 --> 00:38:18,600 that the true nature of time is much different than we think. 655 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,240 Boulder, Colorado. 656 00:38:28,340 --> 00:38:31,980 Housed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, 657 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,600 are two atomic clocks that together serve as the United 658 00:38:35,700 --> 00:38:39,880 States' primary time and frequency standard. 659 00:38:39,980 --> 00:38:44,080 Around the world, similar clocks with incredible precision 660 00:38:44,180 --> 00:38:48,060 set the time by which all of humankind operates. 661 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:52,560 It is a relentless march of seconds, minutes, hours, 662 00:38:52,660 --> 00:38:56,600 and days, determining when we wake up, go to work, 663 00:38:56,700 --> 00:39:01,900 eat, sleep, celebrate, and ultimately die. 664 00:39:02,980 --> 00:39:06,800 But what if how we perceive time is nothing more than a human 665 00:39:06,900 --> 00:39:10,040 construct, an attempt to quantify and control 666 00:39:10,140 --> 00:39:13,680 a universal force that modern science hasn't even 667 00:39:13,780 --> 00:39:16,880 begun to understand? 668 00:39:16,980 --> 00:39:19,680 We live in the fantasy of linear time 669 00:39:19,780 --> 00:39:23,060 because we have to remember that all the notions of time 670 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,960 are imposed on reality. 671 00:39:26,060 --> 00:39:27,960 Reality flows in its own way. 672 00:39:28,060 --> 00:39:30,360 We imagine that our clocks measure it. 673 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,660 We claim to be able to mark it off in hours and days and things, 674 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,860 but that's all just imposed on it. 675 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,460 Physicists point out that going by modern sciences 676 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,560 linear concept of time, even the idea of the here and now 677 00:39:44,660 --> 00:39:48,200 is merely an illusion, since light and sound do not 678 00:39:48,300 --> 00:39:50,540 travel instantaneously. 679 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,500 When you look in a mirror, you're not really 680 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,340 looking at yourself as you are. 681 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,380 You're looking at yourself as you were about a billionth 682 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,080 of a second ago. 683 00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:00,800 When you look at the moon, you're not really 684 00:40:00,900 --> 00:40:02,940 looking at the moon as it is now. 685 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:07,180 You're looking at the moon as it was about a second ago. 686 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,480 So when you look at the Pleiades, 687 00:40:08,580 --> 00:40:13,460 you're looking at the Pleiades as they were 400 years ago. 688 00:40:16,060 --> 00:40:18,820 Some of the stars viewable in the night sky 689 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,560 burnt out long ago, which according to a linear model 690 00:40:22,660 --> 00:40:25,560 of time means they no longer exist. 691 00:40:25,660 --> 00:40:28,200 They are no longer reachable. 692 00:40:28,820 --> 00:40:31,200 But what if this model of time is wrong? 693 00:40:33,860 --> 00:40:37,800 Another take on time travel is that when the Big Bang occurred, 694 00:40:37,900 --> 00:40:41,300 all of space and time and everything is in it was created. 695 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,440 So all of time is in the universe already. 696 00:40:44,540 --> 00:40:48,140 For some reason, we can only experience the now. 697 00:40:48,240 --> 00:40:51,080 Could it be that our understanding of time 698 00:40:51,180 --> 00:40:54,080 is limited by how we experience it? 699 00:40:54,180 --> 00:40:56,080 And might a more technologically advanced 700 00:40:56,140 --> 00:40:59,540 extraterrestrial species, or even future humans, 701 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,940 have discovered how to manipulate time and space 702 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:07,280 to travel both to the past and to the future? 703 00:41:07,380 --> 00:41:13,380 The idea that we may simply be dealing with space people 704 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:18,060 from other star systems may not be the full answer. 705 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:22,760 We could be dealing with time travelers. 706 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,020 Could these intelligences have been aiding us, 707 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,700 perhaps guiding us, perhaps controlling 708 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,160 the evolution of humanity? 709 00:41:34,260 --> 00:41:37,440 I rather am a believer in time travel. 710 00:41:37,540 --> 00:41:41,500 I say nothing will be impossible for us in the future. 711 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,440 Even if you think it's completely crazy, it will happen. 712 00:41:45,540 --> 00:41:49,140 Whatever humans are able to think, to calculate, 713 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:56,000 even to fantasies, will one day become reality? 714 00:41:56,100 --> 00:42:00,080 Is Earth being visited by highly advanced civilizations 715 00:42:00,180 --> 00:42:04,620 that have overcome the limitations of time and space? 716 00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:09,320 And if so, could they even be our own human descendants 717 00:42:09,420 --> 00:42:12,480 traveling back from the future? 718 00:42:12,580 --> 00:42:16,360 Perhaps our notions of time, space, and our place 719 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,720 in the universe are about to be radically altered. 720 00:42:20,820 --> 00:42:23,720 Only time will tell.
