It's called transmorphic. 684 00:36:34,150 --> 00:36:35,777 And what that means is, 685 00:36:35,777 --> 00:36:38,613 these creatures aren't corporeal the way we are. 686 00:36:38,613 --> 00:36:42,242 They're energy beings, they're light beings. 687 00:36:42,242 --> 00:36:47,038 NARRATOR: Some believe these objects that fly at bone‐crushing speeds 688 00:36:47,038 --> 00:36:49,374 could be piloted by beings that are not bound 689 00:36:49,374 --> 00:36:51,376 to a rigid physical form. 690 00:36:51,376 --> 00:36:54,754 But others suggest a more likely explanation 691 00:36:54,754 --> 00:36:58,800 is that the craft don't have pilots inside them at all. 692 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,219 KAKU: These are hypersonic devices. 693 00:37:01,219 --> 00:37:04,681 They can also zigzag, and the amount of zigzagging 694 00:37:04,681 --> 00:37:07,475 is so great that the gravitational forces 695 00:37:07,475 --> 00:37:11,438 inside these objects as they jerk through space and time 696 00:37:11,438 --> 00:37:15,233 would crush any living individual. 697 00:37:15,233 --> 00:37:18,194 In my opinion, whatever these objects are, 698 00:37:18,194 --> 00:37:20,780 they're guided either by remote control 699 00:37:20,780 --> 00:37:23,742 or by an autonomous cybernetic system. 700 00:37:23,742 --> 00:37:26,745 FENTON: Now when we look at the cutting edge 701 00:37:26,745 --> 00:37:28,705 of science today, 702 00:37:28,705 --> 00:37:31,791 we realize that space exploration 703 00:37:31,791 --> 00:37:35,628 probably won't be carried out by living people, 704 00:37:35,628 --> 00:37:37,338 but instead by robot craft, 705 00:37:37,338 --> 00:37:38,882 and this is already happening. 706 00:37:38,882 --> 00:37:41,676 You know, our explorations of Mars and of the solar system 707 00:37:41,676 --> 00:37:44,554 involve robot craft, not human beings. 708 00:37:44,554 --> 00:37:46,848 Could it be that an advanced extraterrestrial civilization 709 00:37:46,848 --> 00:37:48,725 would have gone down the same route 710 00:37:48,725 --> 00:37:52,604 and sent living AI craft to explore our planet? 711 00:37:58,026 --> 00:38:00,487 NARRATOR: If aircraft of all shapes and sizes 712 00:38:00,487 --> 00:38:03,239 have been sent to Earth from alien mother ships, 713 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,159 as ancient astronaut theorists suggest, 714 00:38:06,159 --> 00:38:09,120 could they be robotic drones that are remotely controlled 715 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,830 from far above the planet? 716 00:38:10,830 --> 00:38:14,751 Or is it even possible that the craft possess 717 00:38:14,751 --> 00:38:16,669 highly advanced artificial intelligence, 718 00:38:16,669 --> 00:38:19,297 and fly autonomously? 719 00:38:19,297 --> 00:38:22,258 And if there are no pilots to accommodate, 720 00:38:22,258 --> 00:38:25,178 could this suggest that these crafts are capable 721 00:38:25,178 --> 00:38:27,639 of more than we ever imagined? 722 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:44,239 NARRATOR: A robotics team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory 723 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,450 announces a new prototype robotic system 724 00:38:47,450 --> 00:38:49,410 that will one day be able to explore 725 00:38:49,410 --> 00:38:52,664 the most inaccessible areas of distant worlds. 726 00:38:52,664 --> 00:38:56,835 Mini‐robots that can combine and transform 727 00:38:56,835 --> 00:38:59,504 to roll, fly, float, 728 00:38:59,504 --> 00:39:01,673 and swim in any environment. 729 00:39:01,673 --> 00:39:07,554 NASA is calling them "Shapeshifters." 730 00:39:07,554 --> 00:39:09,514 NASA is looking at shape‐shifting robots 731 00:39:09,514 --> 00:39:11,349 to explore other moons and planets. 732 00:39:11,349 --> 00:39:13,017 Like Saturn's moon, Titan. 733 00:39:14,185 --> 00:39:16,771 It's looking at having a shape‐shifting robot 734 00:39:16,771 --> 00:39:18,773 as part of a probe that could adapt 735 00:39:18,773 --> 00:39:20,900 to the different environment on Titan's surface. 736 00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:23,903 Flying through the air, exploring the ground, 737 00:39:23,903 --> 00:39:28,074 and even going into the methane and ethane seas. 738 00:39:28,074 --> 00:39:30,827 The individual components are kind of 739 00:39:30,827 --> 00:39:33,371 self‐contained mini‐robots 740 00:39:33,371 --> 00:39:35,415 that work together as a collective 741 00:39:35,415 --> 00:39:37,333 and create new and interesting shapes, 742 00:39:37,333 --> 00:39:40,211 depending on what you need to go through. 743 00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:44,716 It's been noted with a number of UFOs that have been observed, 744 00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:46,634 sometimes they change shape. 745 00:39:46,634 --> 00:39:49,804 At one point, they look like a triangle 746 00:39:49,804 --> 00:39:52,348 and then they look like a disc. 747 00:39:52,348 --> 00:39:56,394 NARRATOR: Another technology that NASA is developing 748 00:39:56,394 --> 00:40:00,064 for deep space travel is self‐replicating robots: 749 00:40:00,064 --> 00:40:03,735 artificially intelligent machines 750 00:40:03,735 --> 00:40:05,945 that are able to use the resources found 751 00:40:05,945 --> 00:40:09,240 on celestial bodies to create more of themselves, 752 00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:12,118 colonize planets, 753 00:40:12,118 --> 00:40:16,289 and even evolve into more sophisticated machines. 754 00:40:16,289 --> 00:40:19,083 This has led some to speculate 755 00:40:19,083 --> 00:40:21,586 that the UFOs witnessed in our skies 756 00:40:21,586 --> 00:40:24,756 are not dependent on external control at all. 757 00:40:28,593 --> 00:40:30,428 KAKU: If you're an alien civilization 758 00:40:30,428 --> 00:40:33,222 looking at the galaxy with a hundred billion stars, 759 00:40:33,222 --> 00:40:37,936 you may not want to send Captain Kirk hopping one by one. 760 00:40:37,936 --> 00:40:41,981 You'd send self‐replicating robots. 761 00:40:41,981 --> 00:40:44,275 They would land on the planet, 762 00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:46,778 make hundreds of carbon copies of themselves 763 00:40:46,778 --> 00:40:50,198 that would launch off and colonize other moons. 764 00:40:50,198 --> 00:40:53,534 From one robot, you would get a hundred, then a thousand, 765 00:40:53,534 --> 00:40:56,454 then a million, billion. 766 00:40:56,454 --> 00:40:59,207 While we are certainly dealing with technological craft 767 00:40:59,207 --> 00:41:00,458 in certain instances, 768 00:41:00,458 --> 00:41:03,711 it's also true that we are finding evidence 769 00:41:03,711 --> 00:41:06,547 for conscious entities that are spacecraft. 770 00:41:09,550 --> 00:41:12,178 NARRATOR: From an ancient Egyptian symbol 771 00:41:12,178 --> 00:41:15,098 to a 16th century Swiss illustration, 772 00:41:15,098 --> 00:41:19,394 and modern‐day footage captured by military aircraft, 773 00:41:19,394 --> 00:41:22,480 is there overwhelming evidence that UFOs 774 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,817 and extraterrestrial craft not only exist, 775 00:41:25,817 --> 00:41:27,735 but they have been present on planet Earth 776 00:41:27,735 --> 00:41:30,154 for thousands of years?
