[ Man Narrating ]
A doorway to other dimensions.
2
00:00:05,083 --> 00:00:08,211
They were traveling through
some sort of energetic portal.
3
00:00:08,962 --> 00:00:11,214
[ Narrator]
An unexplained disappearance.
4
00:00:12,465 --> 00:00:16,553
The idea that, all of a sudden,
they would just disappear into thin air-
5
00:00:16,636 --> 00:00:18,388
there's something going on there.
6
00:00:18,471 --> 00:00:22,309
[ Narrator]
And a cave said to be the gateway to hell.
7
00:00:23,143 --> 00:00:27,772
Even today, any birds going near it
fall down dead.
8
00:00:28,732 --> 00:00:32,485
[ Narrator] Is it possible that portals
to other points in the universe...
9
00:00:32,569 --> 00:00:36,197
truly exist right here on Earth?
10
00:00:37,032 --> 00:00:39,200
And might these so-called Stargates...
11
00:00:39,284 --> 00:00:43,622
actually provide a connection
to alien civilizations?
12
00:00:44,623 --> 00:00:48,084
[ Man ] It's possible that we were
created by these ancient gods...
13
00:00:48,168 --> 00:00:49,794
who came here in Stargates...
14
00:00:49,878 --> 00:00:53,381
and they intended for us
to one day join them in the stars.
15
00:00:54,090 --> 00:00:56,343
Perhaps today is that day.
16
00:00:57,427 --> 00:00:59,763
[ Narrator]
Millions of people around the world...
17
00:00:59,846 --> 00:01:02,057
believe we have been visited
in the past...
18
00:01:02,140 --> 00:01:04,142
by extraterrestrial beings.
19
00:01:04,893 --> 00:01:06,811
What if it were true?
20
00:01:07,812 --> 00:01:09,272
Did ancient aliens...
21
00:01:09,356 --> 00:01:11,733
really help to shape our history?
22
00:01:12,567 --> 00:01:14,069
And if so...
23
00:01:14,152 --> 00:01:17,530
might they have arrived here
through Stargates?
24
00:01:52,732 --> 00:01:54,734
[ Narrator] Pamukkale, Turkey.
25
00:01:56,236 --> 00:01:59,781
Here, 200 miles south of Istanbul...
26
00:01:59,864 --> 00:02:02,283
lie the ruins of Hierapolis...
27
00:02:02,367 --> 00:02:05,328
an ancient city
that served as a sacred site...
28
00:02:05,412 --> 00:02:08,748
to the Phrygians
in the 3rd century B.C.
29
00:02:10,792 --> 00:02:14,254
In March 2013,
Italian archaeologists...
30
00:02:14,337 --> 00:02:16,339
announced that they had unearthed...
31
00:02:16,423 --> 00:02:19,134
something the ancient Greeks
described...
32
00:02:19,217 --> 00:02:21,219
as a gateway to hell.
33
00:02:23,304 --> 00:02:26,057
The ancients in Greece
and Roman civilizations...
34
00:02:26,141 --> 00:02:28,184
had a fascination with the underworld...
35
00:02:29,185 --> 00:02:31,563
the realm of Hades and Pluto.
36
00:02:31,646 --> 00:02:33,940
There were many stories of travelers...
37
00:02:34,024 --> 00:02:37,694
who were able to transit
into these unseen realms.
38
00:02:39,362 --> 00:02:42,490
To go to the land of the dead
and survive...
39
00:02:42,574 --> 00:02:45,952
was a great miracle
showing great heroism.
40
00:02:50,331 --> 00:02:53,251
[ Narrator] According to the accounts
of Greek geographer Strabo...
41
00:02:53,334 --> 00:02:55,962
this cave,
now partially bricked up...
42
00:02:56,046 --> 00:02:58,214
was known as a Ploutonion...
43
00:02:58,298 --> 00:03:02,218
or Pluto's Gate,
for the god of the underworld.
44
00:03:02,302 --> 00:03:04,345
It was considered so sacred...
45
00:03:04,429 --> 00:03:07,098
that only cult priests
were allowed near it.
46
00:03:08,266 --> 00:03:12,437
These priests worshipped
a powerful goddess known as Cybele.
47
00:03:14,856 --> 00:03:18,068
Cybele started out as a goddess
that was important in Asia Minor...
48
00:03:18,151 --> 00:03:21,321
and then spread west
into Greece and Rome.
49
00:03:22,947 --> 00:03:25,533
[ COPPENS ] She is known
as the guardian of the gateways.
50
00:03:26,493 --> 00:03:28,578
You would have to get
Cybele's permission...
51
00:03:28,661 --> 00:03:30,663
to move through time and space.
52
00:03:32,082 --> 00:03:34,334
[ Woman ]
Iconographically, she's often portrayed...
53
00:03:34,417 --> 00:03:38,046
as standing next to
the gate to the other world.
54
00:03:39,089 --> 00:03:42,092
I think the realm of the gods
has always fascinated humans...
55
00:03:42,175 --> 00:03:45,345
because it is imagined as being
very different from our own realm.
56
00:03:46,096 --> 00:03:48,848
And so humans have always
sought a way...
57
00:03:48,932 --> 00:03:52,852
to enter the realm of the gods
to have those ecstatic experiences...
58
00:03:52,936 --> 00:03:56,231
that happen when you are
in communication with a deity.
59
00:03:59,067 --> 00:04:00,944
[ Narrator]
Legends from around the world...
60
00:04:01,027 --> 00:04:04,531
describe sacred entryways
similar to Pluto's Gate...
61
00:04:04,614 --> 00:04:06,991
that led to the land of the gods.
62
00:04:07,992 --> 00:04:10,703
In many cases,
these gates not only provided...
63
00:04:10,787 --> 00:04:13,873
instant passage
outside the confines of Earth...
64
00:04:14,999 --> 00:04:17,961
but even beyond space and time.
65
00:04:18,795 --> 00:04:20,713
And according to some myths...
66
00:04:20,797 --> 00:04:24,551
they were traversed
by otherworldly beings.
67
00:04:24,634 --> 00:04:27,137
Throughout the ancient world,
we're presented with stories...
68
00:04:27,220 --> 00:04:31,391
of advanced beings
who came from the stars-star beings.
69
00:04:33,017 --> 00:04:35,812
[ Henry] In many of these instances
they are described...
70
00:04:35,895 --> 00:04:40,233
as passing through
portals or star doors.
71
00:04:40,316 --> 00:04:43,153
The term we use today is Stargate.
72
00:04:45,071 --> 00:04:47,574
A Stargate is a place...
73
00:04:47,657 --> 00:04:50,660
that allows transportation...
74
00:04:50,743 --> 00:04:54,247
to another planet
or somewhere out in the stars.
75
00:04:55,248 --> 00:04:58,543
[ Swartz ] There have been a number
of locations across the planet...
76
00:04:58,626 --> 00:05:00,628
where it's been felt...
77
00:05:00,712 --> 00:05:03,590
that the ancients built Stargates.
78
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:09,429
[ Narrator]
Are such passages, or Stargates...
79
00:05:09,512 --> 00:05:13,224
just the product
of our ancestors' imaginations?
80
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:16,519
Or might this kind of
interstellar travel...
81
00:05:16,603 --> 00:05:19,522
have actually existed
in the ancient world?
82
00:05:20,356 --> 00:05:23,568
If so, who or what...
83
00:05:23,651 --> 00:05:25,695
created such advanced technology...
84
00:05:25,778 --> 00:05:27,780
thousands of years ago?
85
00:05:28,948 --> 00:05:30,950
Some ancient astronaut theorists...
86
00:05:31,034 --> 00:05:33,077
believe more clues can be found...
87
00:05:33,161 --> 00:05:36,539
in the descriptions of
the elaborate rituals that took place...
88
00:05:36,623 --> 00:05:38,625
at the Turkish Ploutonion.
89
00:05:42,879 --> 00:05:45,590
[ Young ] It was a great spectacle
when the priests of Cybele...
90
00:05:45,673 --> 00:05:48,009
would do their ceremonial sacrifice.
91
00:05:48,092 --> 00:05:50,345
They'd lead a bull into the cave...
92
00:05:50,428 --> 00:05:53,306
and the bull would die
of the gases in this cave...
93
00:05:53,389 --> 00:05:55,451
and the people were gathered
watching this whole thing.
94
00:05:55,475 --> 00:05:58,603
Then the priests would bring out
this sacrificed animal...
95
00:05:58,686 --> 00:06:01,522
and everyone would notice
the priests were alive...
96
00:06:01,606 --> 00:06:03,942
showing they had
some great power...
97
00:06:04,025 --> 00:06:06,069
or direct connection
to the divine source...
98
00:06:06,152 --> 00:06:09,197
to be able to survive
the rituals themselves.
99
00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:12,158
This would prove then
that this was the gate to hell...
100
00:06:12,242 --> 00:06:15,536
and all the people would be afraid
and have great respect for it.
101
00:06:16,579 --> 00:06:18,790
The fact that these rituals existed...
102
00:06:18,873 --> 00:06:22,043
the fact that Cybele was known
as the guardian of the gateway...
103
00:06:22,126 --> 00:06:25,755
tells us that the ancients were doing
something really important...
104
00:06:25,838 --> 00:06:28,841
with this idea of time travel,
of portals.
105
00:06:31,344 --> 00:06:33,346
[ Narrator]
Excavations have revealed...
106
00:06:33,429 --> 00:06:37,392
that, in fact, there are vapors
rising from the ground at the site...
107
00:06:37,475 --> 00:06:41,771
that contain poisonous levels
of carbon dioxide and other gases...
108
00:06:41,854 --> 00:06:46,234
capable of killing anyone or anything
that breathes them in.
109
00:06:47,068 --> 00:06:48,611
The ancient stories said...
110
00:06:48,695 --> 00:06:52,824
that animals that came anywhere near this
would drop down dead.
111
00:06:53,825 --> 00:06:56,286
The same still occurs today.
112
00:06:56,953 --> 00:06:59,998
Any birds going near it
fall down dead.
113
00:07:02,125 --> 00:07:04,127
[ Narrator]
If the toxins within the cave...
114
00:07:04,210 --> 00:07:06,296
were potent enough to kill a bull...
115
00:07:06,379 --> 00:07:08,798
how did the priests
survive this ritual?
116
00:07:10,675 --> 00:07:14,429
Is it possible, as some
ancient astronaut theorists believe...
117
00:07:14,512 --> 00:07:17,932
that the priests
had received secret knowledge...
118
00:07:18,016 --> 00:07:21,436
and perhaps even access
to a Stargate...
119
00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:24,647
from an otherworldly being
known as Cybele?
120
00:07:25,648 --> 00:07:27,525
In Pamukkale, Turkey...
121
00:07:27,608 --> 00:07:31,404
this does appear to be
a preserved record...
122
00:07:31,487 --> 00:07:35,867
of a possible Stargate technology
that is being used.
123
00:07:36,534 --> 00:07:38,661
As these special priests...
124
00:07:38,745 --> 00:07:40,872
were able to go into this area...
125
00:07:40,955 --> 00:07:44,834
they may have been traveling through
some sort of energetic portal...
126
00:07:44,917 --> 00:07:46,836
that gave them the ability...
127
00:07:46,919 --> 00:07:48,921
to reach some other location...
128
00:07:49,005 --> 00:07:50,757
that was completely different...
129
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,009
from where people
normally were going...
130
00:07:53,092 --> 00:07:55,178
if they walked into this area.
131
00:07:56,262 --> 00:07:59,432
[ Man ] You have to wonder if there was
something secret in this cave...
132
00:07:59,515 --> 00:08:01,017
that they were hiding...
133
00:08:01,100 --> 00:08:04,937
perhaps some kind of
inter-dimensional Stargate technology.
134
00:08:05,021 --> 00:08:07,732
And that they would put on this show...
135
00:08:07,815 --> 00:08:09,692
to basically frighten them...
136
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,197
make sure that they realized this cave
was a forbidden place to go into...
137
00:08:14,864 --> 00:08:17,492
and, in fact,
was some kind of repository...
138
00:08:17,575 --> 00:08:20,620
for alien technology
and possibly Stargates.
139
00:08:24,207 --> 00:08:28,336
[ Narrator] Could the Ploutonion
really be an extraterrestrial Stargate-
140
00:08:29,212 --> 00:08:31,714
one that was protected by priests...
141
00:08:31,798 --> 00:08:34,467
in order to dissuade others
from approaching it?
142
00:08:35,468 --> 00:08:37,887
And if so, why?
143
00:08:39,222 --> 00:08:41,391
Perhaps the answer can be found...
144
00:08:41,474 --> 00:08:43,518
at another ancient site...

containing three trapezoidal windows
along one wall.

of the Temple of the Three Windows...

[ Narrator]
Some scholars believe...
167
00:09:53,504 --> 00:09:56,632
the three windows symbolize
the Incan creation myth.
168

When you read this story,
you're instantly thinking...

that this is some kind of a Stargate
they're describing...

these advanced solar beings...

possessed some kind
of Stargate technology...

that enabled them
to open these gateways.

why ancient sites like the Ploutonion...

What you're talking about
is a structure in space...

that involves very, very strong
bending of space...

from one place to the other...

[ Narrator]
While the idea of wormhole travel...
240
00:13:57,665 --> 00:13:59,792
offers incredible possibilities...
241
00:14:00,626 --> 00:14:04,630
realizing this technology

00:14:09,635 --> 00:14:11,762
that creating
a traversable wormhole...
244
00:14:11,846 --> 00:14:14,390
would require
a far greater amount of energy...

that so-called "exotic matter"...
247
00:14:21,605 --> 00:14:25,067
may provide the key
to unlocking wormhole travel.
248

[ DENNIN ] What you need
is matter with negative mass.
249
00:14:29,488 --> 00:14:32,158
And we're only aware of matter
with positive mass.
250
00:14:32,241 --> 00:14:34,243
So we call this "exotic matter."
251
00:14:34,326 --> 00:14:37,455
Not that it couldn't exist,
we're just not aware of it yet.
252
00:14:38,289 --> 00:14:42,084
But the bottom line is, it takes
huge amounts of energy to create these.
253
00:14:42,835 --> 00:14:44,879
Imagine taking all of Jupiter now...
254

and converting that to energy.

already exist.

In 1991...

scientists at Vanderbilt University...
264
00:15:20,456 --> 00:15:23,209
proposed that the chaos
of the Big Bang...
265
00:15:23,292 --> 00:15:25,294
not only created the universe...
266
00:15:26,045 --> 00:15:29,548
but also may have caused
the formation of mini wormholes...
267

that if you had something...

like the size
of the Himalaya Mountains...
273
00:15:46,982 --> 00:15:51,153
the space-time around it
could have been so badly stressed...
274
00:15:51,237 --> 00:15:53,739
that it would mash this matter...
275
00:15:53,823 --> 00:15:56,158
inside its own event horizon.
276
00:15:57,993 --> 00:16:01,455
In the same way,
you can imagine space-time...
277
00:16:01,539 --> 00:16:05,376
being mashed together
and forming a mini wormhole.
278
00:16:07,253 --> 00:16:10,130
[ Narrator] The possible result,
according to researchers...
279
00:16:10,214 --> 00:16:13,300
would be a wormhole
about the size of an atom.
280
00:16:16,929 --> 00:16:19,640
Once located,
these mini wormholes...
281
00:16:19,723 --> 00:16:23,686
could possibly be stretched
to create a traversable wormhole.
282
00:16:24,895 --> 00:16:28,065
[ DENNIN ] One of the things we know
is that since the Big Bang...
283
00:16:28,148 --> 00:16:30,025
the universe has been expanding...
284
00:16:30,109 --> 00:16:32,903
which means space-time overall
has been stretching.
285
00:16:33,612 --> 00:16:37,241
So when the universe is quite small,
you make a teeny little wormhole.
286
00:16:37,324 --> 00:16:39,326
As that whole structure stretches...
287
00:16:39,410 --> 00:16:42,371
that whole wormhole stretches
and grows big as well.
288
00:16:42,454 --> 00:16:44,957
So you could end up
with a very large wormhole now.

Some scientists believe
that not only will we travel...

523
00:30:10,679 --> 00:30:14,766
Here, in a small lab
at this public university...
524
00:30:14,849 --> 00:30:18,687
physicist Jim Woodward
conducts experiments that he believes...
525
00:30:18,770 --> 00:30:21,898
will one day change
the way we travel through space.
526
00:30:22,732 --> 00:30:26,861
I was primarily interested in trying
to figure out how to make stuff go fast.
527
00:30:26,945 --> 00:30:30,532
And to do that, you need to master
the problem of propulsion.
528
00:30:33,368 --> 00:30:37,372
To master the problem of propulsion
to achieve speeds...
529
00:30:37,455 --> 00:30:40,041
that are a significant fraction
of the speed of light...
530
00:30:40,125 --> 00:30:43,545
you have to be able
to manipulate inertia.
531
00:30:43,628 --> 00:30:47,048
And so that's how I got interested
in gravity and inertia.
532
00:30:47,716 --> 00:30:50,385
What I've found
is that it may indeed be possible...
533
00:30:50,468 --> 00:30:52,721
to get around space-time quickly.

[ Narrator]
Dr. Woodward's work...
535
00:30:59,769 --> 00:31:02,021
seeks to prove a controversial theory...
536
00:31:02,105 --> 00:31:04,274
known as Mach's principle...
537
00:31:04,357 --> 00:31:06,901
which says that there is
a direct relationship...
538
00:31:06,985 --> 00:31:09,320
between the motion of mass
here on Earth...
539
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,159
and that of distant matter
that exists throughout the universe.
540
00:31:15,326 --> 00:31:18,705
Woodward theorizes
that if this proves true...
541
00:31:18,788 --> 00:31:22,167
it could be the key
to unlocking Stargate travel.
542
00:31:23,835 --> 00:31:27,505
The idea was first introduced
in 1883...
543
00:31:27,589 --> 00:31:30,592
by Austrian physicist Ernst Mach.
544
00:31:30,675 --> 00:31:33,678
[ Woodward ]
Mach's principle, at the simplest level...
545
00:31:33,762 --> 00:31:36,723
is the assertion
that when you push on an object...
546
00:31:36,806 --> 00:31:39,476
the reason why
it pushes back on you...
547
00:31:39,559 --> 00:31:42,437
is because
of the gravitational action...
548
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,856
of the most distant matter
in the universe...
549
00:31:44,939 --> 00:31:47,275
acting through the object.
550
00:31:47,358 --> 00:31:50,403
And so the matter out there,
far, far away...
551
00:31:50,487 --> 00:31:52,530
is the stuff that determines...
552
00:31:52,614 --> 00:31:55,450
the inertial properties
of objects locally.
553
00:31:57,786 --> 00:32:01,289
[ Frisbee ]
Mach's principle basically says that...
554
00:32:01,372 --> 00:32:03,792
all the stars, all the planets...
555
00:32:03,875 --> 00:32:06,628
all the galaxies out there...
556
00:32:06,711 --> 00:32:11,216
do, in fact,
have an effect on us here.
557
00:32:12,467 --> 00:32:14,135
And the reason they do...
558
00:32:14,219 --> 00:32:17,597
is because of the way
they warp space-time.
559
00:32:18,515 --> 00:32:21,893
So even though you may not see it,
the world around you...
560
00:32:21,976 --> 00:32:24,479
is determined by what's going on...
561
00:32:25,230 --> 00:32:27,565
potentially light-years away from you.
562
00:32:29,359 --> 00:32:32,862
[ Narrator] Dr. Woodward's
initial interest in Mach's principle...
563
00:32:32,946 --> 00:32:35,073
was not to create wormholes...
564
00:32:35,824 --> 00:32:37,951
but to revolutionize space travel...
565
00:32:38,034 --> 00:32:41,996
by creating propulsion
without expelling matter from the craft.

00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,373
[ Radio Chatter, Indistinct]
567
00:32:43,456 --> 00:32:45,375
Our standard way
of thinking of propulsion...
568
00:32:45,458 --> 00:32:47,460
is we send stuff out the back
of something.
569
00:32:49,170 --> 00:32:52,257
[ DENNIN ] So you have a rocket.
It sends hot gases out the back.
570
00:32:54,008 --> 00:32:55,385
You have a jet engine.
571
00:32:55,468 --> 00:32:58,096
It sucks air in from the front
and shoots it out the back.
572
00:32:58,930 --> 00:33:02,600
So almost all of our propulsion systems
are that basic principle:
573
00:33:02,684 --> 00:33:04,686
Throw something out the back,
you move forward.
574
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,021
The Mach principle?
575
00:33:07,105 --> 00:33:09,107
Almost think about it,
maybe, as a surf wave.
576
00:33:10,108 --> 00:33:12,777
Right, you're riding along
on the wave...
577
00:33:12,861 --> 00:33:14,612
and that's moving you forward.
578
00:33:14,696 --> 00:33:16,948
You don't actually have to send
anything out back.
579
00:33:18,408 --> 00:33:20,243
In this sort of effect, the idea is...
580
00:33:20,326 --> 00:33:23,997
essentially to create a wave in space
that you move forward on.
581
00:33:27,125 --> 00:33:30,211
[ Narrator] But Dr. Woodward
discovered that Mach's principle...
582
00:33:30,295 --> 00:33:34,048
could have implications
beyond just propulsion.

He believes it holds the key...
584
00:33:37,093 --> 00:33:40,221
to actually creating
traversable wormholes...
585
00:33:40,889 --> 00:33:43,391
giving us the ability to travel...

to the most remote corners
of the universe.
587

00:33:50,732 --> 00:33:52,901
that if scientists
could somehow separate...

of this distant matter...

huge amounts of negative energy
could potentially be exposed.

to engineer devices...

from the influence of gravity
of distant matter in the universe...

you can make Stargates.

when the mass
of the Mach Thruster fluctuates...
607
00:34:55,254 --> 00:34:58,925
it will interact with the distant matter
in the universe...
608

resulting in a small amount
of measurable thrust.

on the end of the beam like so.

The reason why you put
the thrust balance in a vacuum chamber...

is because you're trying to detect
exceedingly small thrust...

00:40:05,106 --> 00:40:07,233
[ Narrator]
Might this depiction of Osiris...
689
00:40:07,316 --> 00:40:10,653
really represent
an ancient technological device?
690
00:40:11,529 --> 00:40:15,116
One so important that
the Egyptians memorialized it here...
691
00:40:15,199 --> 00:40:17,702
on the walls of this sacred temple.
692
00:40:18,494 --> 00:40:21,747
And if so, what was its purpose?
693
00:40:23,874 --> 00:40:25,876
Some ancient astronaut theorists...
694
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,962
believe more clues can be found...
695
00:40:28,045 --> 00:40:31,549
on the opposite wall of the chapel,
where Pharaoh SETI...
696
00:40:31,632 --> 00:40:35,177
is shown transforming
into this Osiris device...
697
00:40:35,261 --> 00:40:37,638
while traveling on a solar barge.
698
00:40:39,348 --> 00:40:41,642
The solar barge was a vehicle...
699
00:40:41,726 --> 00:40:45,104
that was able to make that journey...
700
00:40:45,187 --> 00:40:47,189
from this world to the next.
701
00:40:48,316 --> 00:40:52,570
So, in other words, in many ways,
it was actually a boat to the stars.
702
00:40:53,821 --> 00:40:55,990
[ Wilcock ]
But the shape of the solar barge...
703
00:40:56,073 --> 00:40:58,200
bears a curious similarity...
704
00:40:58,284 --> 00:41:00,578
to the Einstein-Rosen bridge.
705
00:41:01,412 --> 00:41:04,498
So the solar barge
could be a primitive depiction...
706
00:41:04,582 --> 00:41:08,085
of people watching
a luminous Stargate appearing...
707
00:41:08,169 --> 00:41:12,381
and then it being used
as a teleportation device.
708
00:41:17,845 --> 00:41:21,098
[ Man ] On the depiction
of the solar barge...
709
00:41:21,182 --> 00:41:23,351
the head of Pharaoh SETI...
710
00:41:23,434 --> 00:41:27,355
appears to be emerging
from that portal.
711
00:41:28,105 --> 00:41:31,776
Perhaps SETI was a time traveler...
712
00:41:31,859 --> 00:41:34,528
utilizing just such technology...
713
00:41:34,612 --> 00:41:37,156
given to him by the ancient gods.
714
00:41:38,157 --> 00:41:42,036
[ Henry] It suggests that SETI
utilized this ancient technology...
715
00:41:42,119 --> 00:41:44,455
to turn himself into a star being...
716
00:41:44,538 --> 00:41:48,334
so that he could travel the Stargates
and wormholes for eternity.
717
00:41:50,252 --> 00:41:54,215
[ CHILDRESS ] Maybe gods like Osiris
were actually extraterrestrials...
718
00:41:54,298 --> 00:41:57,134
using this Stargate technology...
719
00:41:58,219 --> 00:42:00,554
to come to Earth and teach mankind.
720
00:42:03,057 --> 00:42:06,310
[ Narrator] Could these hieroglyphs
really be depicting a device...
721
00:42:06,394 --> 00:42:10,231
that allowed Pharaoh SETI
to travel across time and space?
722
00:42:11,649 --> 00:42:13,609
Is it possible that the Egyptians...
723
00:42:13,692 --> 00:42:16,570
and other ancient cultures
around the world...
724
00:42:16,654 --> 00:42:18,739
really encountered extraterrestrials...
725
00:42:18,823 --> 00:42:21,242
who came to Earth through Stargates?
726
00:42:23,702 --> 00:42:26,622
Just because our scientists of today...
727
00:42:26,705 --> 00:42:28,749
haven't quite figured it out yet...
728
00:42:28,833 --> 00:42:31,836
doesn't mean
that some other civilization...
729
00:42:31,919 --> 00:42:36,507
thousands, maybe even
hundreds of thousands of years older...
730
00:42:36,590 --> 00:42:38,634
hasn't figured it out either.
731
00:42:38,717 --> 00:42:41,095
Remember, the universe is infinite...
732
00:42:41,178 --> 00:42:44,598
which means that there
are infinite possibilities.
733
00:42:48,352 --> 00:42:50,813
[ CHILDRESS ]
We may have known in the past...
734
00:42:50,896 --> 00:42:54,942
what was going on
and about these portals and wormholes.
735
00:42:55,025 --> 00:42:59,113
And that is why stories
like astral travel and Stargates...
736
00:42:59,196 --> 00:43:02,241
and inter-dimensional voyages...
737
00:43:02,324 --> 00:43:05,870
are something that we've been
hearing about for thousands of years.
738
00:43:05,953 --> 00:43:09,874
And we're just now
rediscovering it for ourselves...
739
00:43:10,791 --> 00:43:13,794
this knowledge given to us
by the extraterrestrials.
740
00:43:15,171 --> 00:43:18,841
It's possible that this is the next step
in human evolution.
741
00:43:18,924 --> 00:43:22,344
It will represent a new beginning
for humankind...
742
00:43:22,428 --> 00:43:26,390
and perhaps this was always the plan
from the ancient times.
743
00:43:26,474 --> 00:43:28,809
We were created
by these ancient gods...
744
00:43:28,893 --> 00:43:31,353
who came here
in Stargates and wormholes...
745
00:43:31,437 --> 00:43:35,107
and they intended for us
to one day join them in the stars.
746
00:43:37,109 --> 00:43:39,653
[ Narrator] Could Earth
really be home to Stargates...
747
00:43:39,737 --> 00:43:42,823
that link us to distant points
throughout the universe?
748
00:43:43,824 --> 00:43:46,410
Pathways that extraterrestrials
have used...
749
00:43:46,494 --> 00:43:48,329
for thousands of years...
750
00:43:49,371 --> 00:43:52,458
and that we are only beginning
to rediscover?
751
00:43:53,667 --> 00:43:57,171
And if we ever do
unlock the key to Stargate travel...
752
00:43:57,254 --> 00:43:58,756
will we discover...
753
00:43:58,839 --> 00:44:03,427
that we've been connected
to alien civilizations all along?
