Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,250 --> 00:00:06,210
Astonishing sea creatures
defy explanation.
2
00:00:06,300 --> 00:00:08,730
It’s like these creatures were
3
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:12,420
brought here in their entirety
and put into our oceans.
4
00:00:12,510 --> 00:00:15,930
Ancient cultures
worship fish-like gods.
5
00:00:16,110 --> 00:00:18,720
This is a common theme
that we find around the world.
6
00:00:18,810 --> 00:00:20,790
Humans that had
aquatic features.
7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,120
Underwater life-forms display
8
00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:25,920
mysterious behavior.
9
00:00:26,010 --> 00:00:29,250
So they’re totally
alien forms of life
10
00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:32,760
that have never been found
anywhere else on the planet.
11
00:00:32,850 --> 00:00:36,180
Scientists say we know more
about the surface of Mars 12
12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:43,200
But is it an even more
alien environment
13
00:00:43,290 --> 00:00:45,360
than anyone could imagine?
14
00:00:45,450 --> 00:00:47,790
This is a extraterrestrial
amino acid, I would say.
15
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:53,010
Really? This is a
revolutionary discovery.
16
00:00:53,190 --> 00:00:55,080
This could just be
the opening of the door
17
00:00:55,260 --> 00:00:58,140
into the realization
that our oceans
18
00:00:58,230 --> 00:01:00,570
are in fact a great
extraterrestrial laboratory.
19
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:07,680
There is a doorway
20
00:01:07,770 --> 00:01:10,380
in the universe.
21
00:01:10,470 --> 00:01:14,430
Beyond it is
the promise of truth.
22
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,400
It demands
we question everything
23
00:01:17,490 --> 00:01:19,740
we have ever been taught.
25 00:01:19,830 --> 00:01:23,160
24
00:01:23,250 --> 00:01:27,300
The future is
right before our eyes.
25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,730
We are not alone.
26
00:01:29,820 --> 00:01:32,970
We have never been alone.
27
00:01:43,050 --> 00:01:46,560
November 4, 2006.
28
00:01:46,650 --> 00:01:50,160
A video is anonymously posted
on the Internet
29
00:01:50,340 --> 00:01:52,590
that appears to be
underwater footage
30
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,920
of a large, shadowy
sea creature.
31
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:58,530
While the footage
is low quality,
32
00:01:58,620 --> 00:02:02,580
long arms and legs,
or possibly a mermaid-like fin,
33
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,180
can be made out as the creature
draws nearer to the camera,
34
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,860
and then the video
abruptly ends.
35
00:02:10,950 --> 00:02:16,260
Information posted with the clipclaims it shows the Ningen,
36
00:02:16,350 --> 00:02:18,690
a legendary sea creature
said to lurk
37
00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:20,850
off the coast of Antarctica.
38
00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:24,450
While some suggest
the footage was faked,
39
00:02:24,540 --> 00:02:26,700
other photos and videos
of the Ningen
40
00:02:26,790 --> 00:02:29,130
have surfaced in recent years,
41
00:02:29,310 --> 00:02:31,470
and there are those who believe
42
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,340
this disturbingly humanlike
sea monster is real.
43
00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:37,770
Now most people, when they saw
the images of this Ningen,
44
00:02:37,950 --> 00:02:39,750
quickly dismissed it as a hoax,
45
00:02:39,930 --> 00:02:42,810
but things in the past, too,
like the idea of a Kraken...
46
00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:45,510
some large squid... was nevereven thought possible
47
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,310
until it was discovered.
48
00:02:47,490 --> 00:02:51,360
History books are filled
with sensational encounters
49
00:02:51,450 --> 00:02:53,700
with terrifying sea monsters.
50
00:02:53,790 --> 00:02:56,400
Many of these stories
were derided as myth
51
00:02:56,580 --> 00:02:59,730
until evidence was found
centuries after
52
00:02:59,820 --> 00:03:03,240
to indicate there was
some truth to them.
53
00:03:03,330 --> 00:03:05,220
The sea is a primal force.
54
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,200
It is deep, it is powerful,
55
00:03:07,380 --> 00:03:09,720
it is tempestuous,
so it frightens us.
56
00:03:09,900 --> 00:03:14,490
So mariners’ tales of sea
serpents, sea monsters go back
57
00:03:14,580 --> 00:03:18,180
to the earliest times
of mythology and folklore.
58
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,600
They represent someof our deepest terrors.
59
00:03:24,030 --> 00:03:25,740
The ocean is a good example
60
00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:27,900
of this fact
meets fiction scenario.
61
00:03:27,990 --> 00:03:30,510
You have stories like the Kraken
62
00:03:30,690 --> 00:03:32,850
and these giant sea monsters.
63
00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:36,000
And then the science
catches up, so to speak,
64
00:03:36,090 --> 00:03:39,600
and we find that, yes, there are
these giant squid down there.
65
00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:42,390
So that begs the question,
what else might be down there?
66
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,460
And, frankly,
we haven’t got a clue.
67
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,950
As we venture deeper and deeper
into the ocean,
68
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,560
there’s no telling
what we’re gonna find,
69
00:03:52,650 --> 00:03:54,540
but one thing will be certain:
72 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,330
70
00:03:59,670 --> 00:04:02,910
Could the Ningen and other
even more incredible creatures
71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,800
that we have yet to encounter
72
00:04:04,980 --> 00:04:08,220
be hiding out in the depths
of Earth’s oceans?
73
00:04:08,310 --> 00:04:13,710
Incredibly, the world that we
know and inhabit, above water,
74
00:04:13,890 --> 00:04:17,940
represents only one percent
of the planet’s livable space.
75
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:23,250
99% belongs to the oceans,
76
00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:27,390
and less than ten percent of
that space has been explored.
77
00:04:29,730 --> 00:04:32,790
The ocean does represent
probably the last real, like,
78
00:04:32,970 --> 00:04:35,490
unexplored area of the Earth.
79
00:04:35,580 --> 00:04:37,290
Uh, the surfaceof the ocean floor
80
00:04:37,380 --> 00:04:39,360
is largely uncharacterized.
81
00:04:41,790 --> 00:04:43,950
It’s kind of strange
when you think about it
82
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,020
because we know more
83
00:04:46,110 --> 00:04:49,800
about the surface of the Moon
and the surface of Mars
84
00:04:49,980 --> 00:04:52,050
than we know
about the ocean floors.
85
00:04:52,140 --> 00:04:55,560
Up until 1875,
86
00:04:55,740 --> 00:04:57,900
the mainstream
scientific viewpoint
87
00:04:57,990 --> 00:05:00,690
was that living organisms
could not exist
88
00:05:00,870 --> 00:05:04,200
more than 1800 feet beneath
the surface of the ocean.
89
00:05:04,290 --> 00:05:07,350
But then a scientific expedition
90
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,410
discovered over 4,700
new types of sea life
91
00:05:10,590 --> 00:05:13,020
beneath that depth.
92
00:05:13,110 --> 00:05:15,180
And an even moreremarkable discovery
93
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,870
would be made more than
100 years later.
94
00:05:22,020 --> 00:05:25,080
February 1977.
95
00:05:25,170 --> 00:05:29,760
250 miles northeast
of the Galápagos Islands.
96
00:05:29,850 --> 00:05:33,270
Scientists make
a remarkable discovery
97
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,870
more than 8,000 feet
below the surface...
98
00:05:37,050 --> 00:05:41,010
near a hydrothermal vent
in the ocean floor
99
00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:45,060
where no life
is thought to exist.
100
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,860
To their astonishment,
101
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,190
the area is teeming
with creatures unlike anything
102
00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:53,160
ever witnessed on Earth.
103
00:05:53,340 --> 00:05:56,580
When they first came upon
these deep sea vents,
104
00:05:56,670 --> 00:05:59,640
they found giant
tube worms, Riftia, 108
105
00:06:02,970 --> 00:06:05,220
and beautifully colored,
106
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,730
all sorts of shrimp
107
00:06:08,820 --> 00:06:11,970
and crabs and fish
living around these vents.
108
00:06:12,060 --> 00:06:15,840
So they’re totally
alien forms of life
109
00:06:15,930 --> 00:06:18,990
that have never been found
anywhere else on the planet.
110
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:22,680
Central to the
underwater ecosystem
111
00:06:22,770 --> 00:06:25,470
is an unusual food source.
112
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,990
Bacteria exists
at these vent sites.
113
00:06:28,170 --> 00:06:30,600
In the absence of light, they do
something that’s analogous
114
00:06:30,780 --> 00:06:34,020
to photosynthesis
that we call chemosynthesis.
115
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:36,000
They actually take these
sulfur-containing compounds 120
116
00:06:43,290 --> 00:06:46,800
Considering the fact that
these extraordinary creatures
117
00:06:46,890 --> 00:06:50,130
have been found,
is it also possible
118
00:06:50,310 --> 00:06:52,920
that so-called sea monsters
presumed to be mythological,
119
00:06:53,010 --> 00:06:55,080
such as the
Ningen of Antarctica,
120
00:06:55,170 --> 00:06:57,870
could exist as well?
121
00:06:58,050 --> 00:07:00,390
While no physical evidence
of the Ningen
122
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,010
has come to light yet,
123
00:07:02,190 --> 00:07:05,160
there is proof of an equally
mystifying creature
124
00:07:05,340 --> 00:07:06,960
that lurks in the depths:
125
00:07:07,050 --> 00:07:12,450
Turritopsis dohrnii,or the immortal jellyfish.
126
00:07:12,540 --> 00:07:16,770
The immortal jellyfish,
when conditions become adverse,
127
00:07:16,860 --> 00:07:19,830
maybe temperatures
become too high,
128
00:07:20,010 --> 00:07:22,440
salinity changes,
129
00:07:22,530 --> 00:07:26,850
these animals revert
to a juvenile stage
130
00:07:27,030 --> 00:07:28,830
from the adult stage
131
00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:33,600
and basically start life
all over again.
132
00:07:33,690 --> 00:07:37,110
So it basically just keeps r...
rewinding its development
133
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:39,000
over and over again.
134
00:07:39,090 --> 00:07:41,340
In the lab, there are some lines
of immortal jellyfish
135
00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:43,050
that haven’t
experienced death yet,
136
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:44,580
um, they’ve just been cycling
137
00:07:44,670 --> 00:07:46,740
through their developmentalstages repeatedly.
138
00:07:46,830 --> 00:07:50,340
A jellyfish that has
the potential to live forever?
139
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,850
But how is it possible that
a creature could exist on Earth
140
00:07:53,940 --> 00:07:57,720
that is so unlike any other
life-form yet discovered,
141
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:02,040
and that scientists
still struggle to explain?
142
00:08:02,130 --> 00:08:05,100
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest there could be
143
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,240
a very simple answer:
that the immortal jellyfish,
144
00:08:09,330 --> 00:08:11,760
and perhaps other bizarre
creatures of the deep,
145
00:08:11,940 --> 00:08:17,430
are not native to this planet,
but arrived here from space.
146
00:08:17,610 --> 00:08:22,290
On August 19, 2014,
153 00:08:22,380 --> 00:08:25,440
147
00:08:25,620 --> 00:08:27,600
made an incredible discovery.
148
00:08:27,690 --> 00:08:30,300
Clinging to the exterior
of the windows
149
00:08:30,390 --> 00:08:33,630
was an organism
commonly found underwater:
150
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,960
sea plankton.
151
00:08:37,140 --> 00:08:40,650
Recent findings of sea plankton
152
00:08:40,740 --> 00:08:42,810
on the outside
of the space station
153
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:44,610
is really very interesting.
154
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:47,760
I, personally, have collaborated
with the group
155
00:08:47,940 --> 00:08:50,910
of very distinguished scientists
who are involved in this,
156
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,150
and we concluded
that there’s no way
157
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,920
in which microbes can be lofted
to 400 kilometers 165
158
00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:07,110
Has Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe,
159
00:09:07,290 --> 00:09:10,260
along with his colleagues,
found irrefutable evidence
160
00:09:10,350 --> 00:09:12,780
of alien life
that is able to survive
161
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,120
the extreme conditions
of outer space
162
00:09:15,210 --> 00:09:18,270
and potentially travel to Earth?
163
00:09:18,450 --> 00:09:21,960
And could the fact that it
was found to be plankton
164
00:09:22,140 --> 00:09:24,750
indicate that life-forms
coming from space
165
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,270
are capable of surviving
in Earth’s oceans?
166
00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:32,040
Here’s what’s so crazy,
we’ve discovered
167
00:09:32,130 --> 00:09:37,170
new creatures and new speciesin places where, 20 years ago,
168
00:09:37,350 --> 00:09:39,600
it was scientific fact
169
00:09:39,780 --> 00:09:43,740
that no life could exist
in those places.
170
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,630
We now have even found fish
171
00:09:45,630 --> 00:09:50,220
at the bottom of the
deepest spots of the ocean
172
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,010
where even a submarine
could get crushed,
173
00:09:53,190 --> 00:09:56,970
and there’s living fish down
there, how is that possible?
174
00:09:57,060 --> 00:09:59,850
It shouldn’t work on Earth,
but it does,
175
00:10:00,030 --> 00:10:03,540
so my question is:
are some of those creatures
176
00:10:03,630 --> 00:10:06,330
directly imported
from somewhere else?
177
00:10:08,310 --> 00:10:10,110
Immortal jellyfish.
178
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,270
Giant worms.
179
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,150
Possible humanoid sea monsters.
188 00:10:15,330 --> 00:10:18,390
180
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:23,700
in Earth’s oceans
not be from Earth at all?
181
00:10:23,790 --> 00:10:27,120
And if alien life-forms
really do inhabit our seas,
182
00:10:27,210 --> 00:10:29,730
did they arrive here
by accident?
183
00:10:29,910 --> 00:10:32,520
Or were they sent here
deliberately
184
00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:35,760
as part of an
extraterrestrial agenda?
185
00:10:35,850 --> 00:10:40,350
Perhaps further clues can be
found by examining an object
186
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,230
that recently
crash-landed on Earth
187
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,830
carrying cargo that has the
potential to create life.
188
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:57,720
December 1974.
189
00:10:57,900 --> 00:11:00,780
Cambridge University
Professor of Astronomy, 199
190
00:11:04,650 --> 00:11:09,600
in Nature magazine that sets
the scientific community abuzz.
191
00:11:09,690 --> 00:11:12,300
For decades,
192
00:11:12,390 --> 00:11:15,000
the mainstream viewpoint
has been that life on Earth
193
00:11:15,090 --> 00:11:19,230
spontaneously arose from
a so-called "primordial soup,"
194
00:11:19,410 --> 00:11:23,460
or organic compounds in the
planet’s primitive oceans.
195
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,250
But scientists
are still uncertain
196
00:11:26,340 --> 00:11:29,310
as to just how life would’ve
been able to develop
197
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,830
from inanimate matter.
198
00:11:32,010 --> 00:11:35,880
Instead,
Dr. Wickramasinghe suggests
199
00:11:35,970 --> 00:11:38,850
that life didn’t start
on Earth at all, 210
200
00:11:41,370 --> 00:11:44,880
on meteorites and comets.
201
00:11:44,970 --> 00:11:48,300
The concept is known
as "panspermia."
202
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,090
Every single textbook on biology
203
00:11:51,180 --> 00:11:55,050
that, uh, we would’ve studied
maybe ten, 20 years ago
204
00:11:55,230 --> 00:12:00,180
starts with the story
of the primordial soup.
205
00:12:00,270 --> 00:12:03,330
There is no evidence
for this at all,
206
00:12:03,510 --> 00:12:06,930
and so the alternative
to the primordial soup theory
207
00:12:07,020 --> 00:12:09,990
is that life did not start here
on the Earth,
208
00:12:10,170 --> 00:12:11,610
but came from outside.
209
00:12:13,770 --> 00:12:16,470
There are two types
of panspermia:
210
00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:20,070
one which is just panspermia,
which suggests 222
211
00:12:24,030 --> 00:12:25,830
throughout the universe.
212
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,340
So it’s a natural seeding
of the planets.
213
00:12:29,430 --> 00:12:31,500
Now, the second term
is what’s called
214
00:12:31,590 --> 00:12:36,720
directed panspermia and
the definition behind that is
215
00:12:36,810 --> 00:12:39,780
that an intelligent
technological species
216
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,940
on a distant planet
217
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,630
deliberately sent out
building blocks of life
218
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,950
to particular planets,
so the idea is
219
00:12:50,130 --> 00:12:53,280
that Earth, perhaps,
a long time ago,
220
00:12:53,370 --> 00:12:56,250
was seeded by extraterrestrials.
221
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,570
For decades,
mainstream scientists 234
222
00:13:04,170 --> 00:13:08,580
that life could not survive
the extreme conditions of space.
223
00:13:08,670 --> 00:13:12,090
But a recent discovery
could prove that notion wrong,
224
00:13:12,270 --> 00:13:14,610
and possibly provide
physical evidence
225
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:17,580
that panspermia
not only occurred,
226
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,550
but continues
to affect life on Earth.
227
00:13:25,410 --> 00:13:28,200
Milton Keynes, England.
228
00:13:28,290 --> 00:13:30,900
March 2019.
229
00:13:30,990 --> 00:13:35,580
Ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos
230
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,010
travels to The Open University
231
00:13:38,190 --> 00:13:41,250
to meet with planetary scientist
Dr. Queenie Chan.
232
00:13:41,340 --> 00:13:43,050
Dr. Chan?
233
00:13:43,230 --> 00:13:44,940
-Giorgio!
-Hello. 247
234
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:47,820
Nice to meet you, too. Welcome.
235
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,620
Thank you so much
for bringing me here.
236
00:13:49,710 --> 00:13:52,410
Dr. Chan recently analyzed
237
00:13:52,590 --> 00:13:55,920
two meteorites recovered in 1998
238
00:13:56,010 --> 00:13:58,620
and discovered something
incredibly unexpected,
239
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,930
a salt crystal
containing liquid water.
240
00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:06,180
Giorgio is eager to find out
241
00:14:06,270 --> 00:14:09,150
what the implications
of this discovery could be,
242
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,480
and if it might provide further
evidence that life on Earth
243
00:14:12,570 --> 00:14:16,530
was seeded by extraterrestrials.
244
00:14:16,620 --> 00:14:18,600
So here we’ve got a box
259 00:14:18,780 --> 00:14:21,300
245
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,010
Oh, wow.
246
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:26,250
Within a stony meteorite,
we’ve got something called
247
00:14:26,430 --> 00:14:29,400
the chondritic meteorite.
They are interesting because
248
00:14:29,490 --> 00:14:31,560
they have
organic materials in it.
249
00:14:33,810 --> 00:14:35,070
The meteorite that I found
250
00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:38,850
extremely interesting,
uh, special,
251
00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:42,270
two meteorites, actually...
Zag and Monahans meteorite.
252
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,240
They are both
ordinary chondrites,
253
00:14:45,330 --> 00:14:47,580
but they are not ordinary.
254
00:14:49,290 --> 00:14:53,070
They both fell to Earth in 1998.
255
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,590
And what’s more interesting is,
256
00:14:55,770 --> 00:14:58,650
both of these meteorite
has salt crystal, 272
257
00:15:02,250 --> 00:15:05,940
More interesting is,
within this salt crystals,
258
00:15:06,030 --> 00:15:07,380
we found water,
259
00:15:07,470 --> 00:15:10,890
liquid water inclusion
within them.
260
00:15:11,070 --> 00:15:12,780
I’m trying to wrap my mind
around this.
261
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,310
So you’re telling me
262
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,110
that you found meteorites
that actually contain
263
00:15:16,290 --> 00:15:19,260
liquid water in them.
What would you say
264
00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:21,150
to someone who would argue
that maybe
265
00:15:21,330 --> 00:15:23,400
the water entered the meteorite
266
00:15:23,580 --> 00:15:25,200
-after it fell on Earth?
-We were lucky
267
00:15:25,290 --> 00:15:28,260
because they both fell
in a dry condition,
268
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,600
and they were retrievedreally quickly
269
00:15:30,690 --> 00:15:32,760
once they...
we observed the fall.
270
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:34,920
So it was not contaminated
by the rain.
271
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,990
Okay.
272
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,520
Should we have a look at it
in the clean lab?
273
00:15:38,610 --> 00:15:40,050
Yes, please,
that would be amazing.
274
00:15:42,930 --> 00:15:44,910
Before they can examine
275
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,960
the meteorite sample,
Giorgio and Dr. Chan change
276
00:15:49,050 --> 00:15:51,120
into protective gear that will
keep the laboratory sterile.
277
00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:56,880
All right.
278
00:15:57,060 --> 00:15:59,400
-And so this is it?
-This is it.
279
00:15:59,580 --> 00:16:01,470
-Should we have a look
under the microscope? -Yes, please, yes.
280
00:16:04,260 --> 00:16:07,500
Trying to move that
in focus now.
281
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,840
There it is.
298 00:16:09,930 --> 00:16:13,620
282
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:18,030
This is it. You’re looking at
a speck of water in a meteorite.
283
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,650
This is the first time
that we’ve found
284
00:16:19,740 --> 00:16:22,530
amino acids with water.
285
00:16:22,710 --> 00:16:24,420
This is extraordinary.
286
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,930
Amino acids?
287
00:16:28,020 --> 00:16:31,530
These organic compounds
are the building blocks of life,
288
00:16:31,620 --> 00:16:33,420
so finding them
within liquid water
289
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,840
on a meteorite is extraordinary.
290
00:16:36,930 --> 00:16:41,610
Could alien proteins like these
have started life on Earth?
291
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,750
One of the exciting things
about the discovery
292
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,630
of the blue salt crystals in theasteroids that crashed to Earth
293
00:16:48,810 --> 00:16:51,600
is really the amino acids.
294
00:16:51,690 --> 00:16:53,940
Amino acids are the
building block of protein,
295
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,810
and so it really shows that
Earth isn’t the only place
296
00:16:57,900 --> 00:17:01,950
where the right chemistry exists
for which you can get life.
297
00:17:02,130 --> 00:17:06,720
The panspermia theory
cannot be dismissed,
298
00:17:06,810 --> 00:17:10,680
and one reason is as follows:
in the early Earth, we were hit
299
00:17:10,770 --> 00:17:12,480
by meteors and asteroids,
300
00:17:12,660 --> 00:17:16,260
so our oceans probably boiled
off many times in the past,
301
00:17:16,350 --> 00:17:19,320
making life impossible.
302
00:17:19,410 --> 00:17:22,650
But then when the
solar system became quiet 320
303
00:17:25,890 --> 00:17:29,760
Scientists are finding
more and more evidence
304
00:17:29,850 --> 00:17:31,830
that shows organic material
arrived here
305
00:17:32,010 --> 00:17:34,890
from other worlds
billions of years ago,
306
00:17:34,980 --> 00:17:38,490
and some believe that process
continues to this day.
307
00:17:38,670 --> 00:17:39,840
What is this?
308
00:17:40,020 --> 00:17:42,000
-This is a NanoSIMS.
-Okay.
309
00:17:42,090 --> 00:17:44,970
It’s capable of doing
isotopic analysis.
310
00:17:46,770 --> 00:17:49,470
Dr. Chan shows Giorgio
the machine that analyzed
311
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,520
the meteorite samples
on a nanometer scale.
312
00:17:53,700 --> 00:17:56,760
The results are then displayedon a computer screen,
313
00:17:56,940 --> 00:17:59,010
showing a comparison
between amino acids
314
00:17:59,100 --> 00:18:02,700
found on Earth and those
that arrived here from space.
315
00:18:02,790 --> 00:18:06,210
This is very interesting,
because, uh, first of all,
316
00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:08,010
we’re seeing
a bunch of amino acids
317
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:11,520
that are common
in-in terrestrial life,
318
00:18:11,700 --> 00:18:13,860
and over here, we’ve got
other extraterrestrial
319
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,750
-amino acid inside.
-Really?
320
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,170
This is a revolutionary
discovery.
321
00:18:19,260 --> 00:18:24,210
I immediately go to the idea
of panspermia... that life
322
00:18:24,300 --> 00:18:28,620
has been brought throughout
the entire galaxy by means 342
323
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,840
The building blocks of protein
324
00:18:34,020 --> 00:18:36,990
that we know to be necessary
for life, these very
325
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,780
building blocks, the same amino
acids that we found on Earth,
326
00:18:39,870 --> 00:18:42,480
is ubiquitous in the,
in the universe.
327
00:18:42,660 --> 00:18:44,910
It’s everywhere.
It’s found on-on asteroid.
328
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,800
It’s found on-on comets, too.
329
00:18:46,980 --> 00:18:49,770
So, in your estimation,
what is the likelihood
330
00:18:49,860 --> 00:18:53,820
of life having begun elsewhere?
331
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,340
We’ve got so many
different galaxies
332
00:18:56,430 --> 00:18:57,960
and there are so many
Earth-like planets, 353
333
00:19:02,190 --> 00:19:04,440
We-we know that amino acids,
the building blocks of life,
334
00:19:04,530 --> 00:19:05,790
are ubiquitous,
335
00:19:05,970 --> 00:19:09,390
um, so I think it-it’s
totally possible.
336
00:19:11,010 --> 00:19:15,240
Thank you so much for sharing
this information with me.
337
00:19:15,330 --> 00:19:17,130
I think this has been
one of the most enlightening
338
00:19:17,310 --> 00:19:18,570
conversations
that I’ve ever had.
339
00:19:18,750 --> 00:19:20,730
-So thank you for your time.
-Thank you very much.
340
00:19:20,910 --> 00:19:22,350
-Yup. Good to have you here.
-Thank you. All right.
341
00:19:25,770 --> 00:19:27,930
Are the seeds of life
being sent to Earth
342
00:19:28,020 --> 00:19:30,990
inside meteoritesand possibly developing
343
00:19:31,170 --> 00:19:33,510
new alien species
in the deepest parts
344
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,860
of our oceans?
345
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,930
And if so,
346
00:19:37,020 --> 00:19:39,270
to what end?
347
00:19:39,450 --> 00:19:41,700
Perhaps further clues
can be found
348
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,660
by examining one of the most
mysterious and intelligent
349
00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:47,280
creatures in the sea:
350
00:19:47,370 --> 00:19:49,260
the octopus.
351
00:19:55,650 --> 00:19:58,350
March 2018.
352
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,670
A scientific paper sparks
a sensation in the press.
353
00:20:02,850 --> 00:20:05,730
In it, a team of 33 scientists,
354
00:20:05,820 --> 00:20:08,700
including
Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe,
355
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,740
claim that octopuses
possess extraterrestrial DNA.
356
00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:18,420
What we find in the octopus
genome is just almost uncanny. 378
357
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,780
Compare that with the human,
358
00:20:27,870 --> 00:20:30,840
which has something like
25,000 genes.
359
00:20:31,020 --> 00:20:33,270
So the octopus, in many ways,
360
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:37,050
appears to be more complex
than the human.
361
00:20:37,230 --> 00:20:39,750
Now how did this complexity
manifest itself?
362
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,820
There’s ample evidence
to suggest
363
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,710
that it came from outside.
364
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,680
As scientists study octopi,
365
00:20:46,770 --> 00:20:50,100
they’re amazed at what they’re
finding, and they’re not seeing
366
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,970
a connection
to some ancestor of the octopi.
367
00:20:54,060 --> 00:20:57,750
It’s like these creatures werebrought here, in their entirety,
368
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,730
and put into our oceans.
369
00:20:59,820 --> 00:21:04,140
The octopus is a really
fascinating organism.
370
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,200
The octopus’s brain,
instead of just being centered
371
00:21:07,290 --> 00:21:11,070
in its head like ours,
is actually distributed.
372
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,680
And there are these brains
in their arms,
373
00:21:13,770 --> 00:21:15,570
as well as the essential brain
in their head.
374
00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:19,080
An octopus can certainly
375
00:21:19,170 --> 00:21:21,420
manipulate its environment.
376
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,400
It builds its own homes
377
00:21:23,490 --> 00:21:27,450
by piling rocks and shells
on top of it.
378
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,930
Octopuses are very adept
at camouflaging themselves 401
379
00:21:37,260 --> 00:21:38,250
Really, really quickly,
I mean, almost...
380
00:21:38,430 --> 00:21:40,050
it looks instantaneous to us.
381
00:21:40,140 --> 00:21:43,020
It can also manipulate its body
into different shapes
382
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,630
to imitate other animals.
383
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,580
Some scientists have speculated
384
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,020
that in the absence of humans,
385
00:21:52,110 --> 00:21:54,540
the animal best suited to evolve
386
00:21:54,630 --> 00:21:56,880
into the dominant species
on the planet
387
00:21:57,060 --> 00:22:00,390
is not another primate,
but the octopus.
388
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,360
And there is one ability
in particular
389
00:22:03,540 --> 00:22:07,770
that suggests the octopus
could one day rule the Earth: 413
390
00:22:12,090 --> 00:22:16,680
DNA, the double helix,
is like a zipper.
391
00:22:16,770 --> 00:22:20,190
The zipper can be unzipped,
392
00:22:20,370 --> 00:22:23,790
and then another molecule
is created,
393
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,490
called RNA.
394
00:22:26,670 --> 00:22:30,540
RNA, it transfers
the information
395
00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:33,690
from DNA to proteins.
396
00:22:35,310 --> 00:22:39,090
So the octopus have
the amazing ability
397
00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:45,210
to edit their RNA, thus,
they can make new proteins.
398
00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:48,900
Although this ability
isn’t fully understood,
399
00:22:48,990 --> 00:22:52,950
it suggests that the octopus can
rapidly adapt to its environment
400
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,650
far faster than other creatures.
401
00:22:55,740 --> 00:22:58,170
What RNA editing doesis essentially
402
00:22:58,350 --> 00:22:59,790
mediated by changes
in the environment,
403
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,860
usually temperature,
for example.
404
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,820
Camouflaging skin?
405
00:23:05,910 --> 00:23:08,700
Tool use?
406
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,390
The ability to edit
its own genetic code?
407
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,720
Is it possible that this
extraordinary creature,
408
00:23:15,810 --> 00:23:20,130
with three hearts and nine
brains, is not from Earth?
409
00:23:20,310 --> 00:23:24,090
Perhaps evidence can be found by
examining mythological accounts
410
00:23:24,180 --> 00:23:27,240
from across the ancient world.
411
00:23:27,420 --> 00:23:31,740
Numerous cultures told stories
of humanlike beings
412
00:23:31,830 --> 00:23:33,900
coming out of the ocean,
413
00:23:33,990 --> 00:23:37,410
and worshiped godsthat resembled sea creatures.
414
00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:40,920
Interestingly, a great many
of these aquatic deities
415
00:23:41,010 --> 00:23:43,440
resemble the octopus.
416
00:23:43,620 --> 00:23:46,140
All the way round the world,
there are traditions
417
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,920
to do with a creator god
in the form of an octopus.
418
00:23:50,010 --> 00:23:54,600
For instance, in ancient Crete,
there are numerous
419
00:23:54,780 --> 00:23:58,470
images and paintings
of an octopus
420
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,980
with bizarre, large eyes.
421
00:24:03,690 --> 00:24:07,020
In Ecuador,
at a place called Manta,
422
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:12,960
were these bas-relief carvings
of this bizarre octopus deity.
423
00:24:13,050 --> 00:24:17,730
We have to ask ourselves, is it
possible that the ancients 448
424
00:24:23,310 --> 00:24:27,360
Is it possible
that the octopus is related
425
00:24:27,540 --> 00:24:30,150
to a race of extraterrestrials
that visited Earth
426
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,220
thousands of years ago?
427
00:24:32,310 --> 00:24:35,460
Or did our ancestors encounter
intelligent creatures
428
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,880
that were the result
of alien experimentation?
429
00:24:38,970 --> 00:24:42,120
Ancient astronaut theory
proposes
430
00:24:42,210 --> 00:24:44,730
that in the distant past,
the human race
431
00:24:44,820 --> 00:24:48,420
was genetically modified
by otherworldly beings.
432
00:24:48,510 --> 00:24:53,100
If true, could they have altered
other creatures as well? 458
433
00:24:55,260 --> 00:24:58,950
we find a very intriguing story,
and that is,
434
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,840
the gods experimented
435
00:25:01,020 --> 00:25:03,180
when they were coming up
with the human form.
436
00:25:03,270 --> 00:25:06,780
They experimented with various
types of creatures:
437
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,380
half human, half dog hybrids,
438
00:25:10,470 --> 00:25:12,900
half human, half horse hybrids,
439
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,050
humans that had
aquatic features.
440
00:25:16,230 --> 00:25:19,380
They seemed to be
experimenting and looking
441
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,780
for just the right fit
for conditions of life on Earth.
442
00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:27,750
We think that stopped,
but that may not be true.
443
00:25:29,190 --> 00:25:31,710
Are extraterrestrials
470 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,130
444
00:25:35,220 --> 00:25:38,730
and perhaps altering existing
life-forms to this day?
445
00:25:38,910 --> 00:25:41,430
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest
446
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,590
that, just like we are
conducting research
447
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,390
on other planets,
448
00:25:45,570 --> 00:25:48,540
otherworldly beings
may be using our oceans
449
00:25:48,630 --> 00:25:52,050
as their own
research laboratory.
450
00:25:58,530 --> 00:26:02,850
St. George’s, Bermuda, 1978.
451
00:26:03,030 --> 00:26:06,540
Dr. Tom ILIFFE,
a research scientist
452
00:26:06,630 --> 00:26:09,150
at the Bermuda
Biological Station,
453
00:26:09,330 --> 00:26:13,740
begins to explore the dozens
of underwater caves in the area. 481
454
00:26:17,430 --> 00:26:19,320
that no meaningful life
can survive
455
00:26:19,410 --> 00:26:22,830
in the dense saltwater
environments of these caves...
456
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,150
caves where the sunlight
does not reach.
457
00:26:27,330 --> 00:26:29,310
But to his astonishment,
458
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,270
he finds the caves
teeming with life.
459
00:26:33,450 --> 00:26:36,870
The blue holes are the
underwater caves in the Bahamas.
460
00:26:37,050 --> 00:26:41,010
So they’re called blue holes
because they’re vertical shafts.
461
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:46,140
When you look at them, the water
is a deep, dark blue in color,
462
00:26:46,230 --> 00:26:48,300
crystal clear water.
491 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,090
463
00:26:51,180 --> 00:26:53,700
"There’s nothing
interesting there,
464
00:26:53,790 --> 00:26:57,930
don’t even bother to look,"
but I took that as a challenge.
465
00:26:58,110 --> 00:27:03,240
I went ahead and tried to find
out for myself what was there,
466
00:27:03,330 --> 00:27:06,480
and amazingly, there’s just over
467
00:27:06,660 --> 00:27:10,620
350 new species of animals
468
00:27:10,710 --> 00:27:12,960
that I have found in my career.
469
00:27:13,140 --> 00:27:16,020
We know of more animals
in these caves
470
00:27:16,110 --> 00:27:18,270
than any other place
in the world.
471
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:22,050
Not only has Dr. ILIFFE
discovered an amazing amount
472
00:27:22,230 --> 00:27:25,650
of life within the extremeenvironment of the blue holes,
473
00:27:25,740 --> 00:27:27,450
but the life-forms he has found
474
00:27:27,630 --> 00:27:31,680
are unlike any other creatures
on Earth.
475
00:27:31,860 --> 00:27:35,550
There have been discovered
an enormous variety
476
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:41,040
of higher groups of animals
in these underwater caves.
477
00:27:41,220 --> 00:27:43,830
One of the most interesting
animals we worked on
478
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,520
represents a new class
of crustacea.
479
00:27:47,700 --> 00:27:51,120
It’s called the remipedes,
and they’re unusual
480
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:53,460
because they are
the only crustacean
481
00:27:53,550 --> 00:27:56,970
with venom-injecting fangs.
482
00:27:57,150 --> 00:28:00,480
So they swim up to prey,
maybe a small shrimp, 512
483
00:28:04,170 --> 00:28:08,310
inject it with hydrolytic
enzymes that paralyzes
484
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,270
and begins digesting
the shrimp externally,
485
00:28:12,450 --> 00:28:15,690
and then literally have the
ability to suck the juices out
486
00:28:15,780 --> 00:28:18,750
of their prey.
487
00:28:18,930 --> 00:28:22,260
If I were going to build
a science fiction monster,
488
00:28:22,350 --> 00:28:24,960
I’d build it around a remipede.
489
00:28:25,050 --> 00:28:28,740
While scientists are fascinated
by the incredible abilities
490
00:28:28,830 --> 00:28:32,340
of the octopus that they still
don’t fully understand,
491
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,860
it is only one
of literally thousands
492
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,630
of extraordinary sea creaturesthat similarly defy explanation.
493
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,860
And one of them,
discovered in 2013,
494
00:28:43,950 --> 00:28:48,180
is the octopus’s colossal
cousin, the giant squid.
495
00:28:52,230 --> 00:28:54,480
Once thought to be
a mythological creature,
496
00:28:54,660 --> 00:28:58,620
the giant squid can grow
to over 40 feet in length,
497
00:28:58,710 --> 00:29:00,960
weigh up to 600 pounds
498
00:29:01,140 --> 00:29:04,290
and boasts the animal kingdom’s
largest eyes...
499
00:29:04,380 --> 00:29:06,180
eyes capable of accommodating
500
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,790
the lack of sunlight
in the deep.
501
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,130
So Architeuthis dux,
or the giant squid,
502
00:29:11,310 --> 00:29:14,550
is a really interesting creature
in that it’s experiencing, 533
503
00:29:18,330 --> 00:29:20,760
in the deep-sea environment.
504
00:29:20,850 --> 00:29:23,190
The giant squid’s tentacles
are covered with suction cups
505
00:29:23,370 --> 00:29:26,430
that have little teeth,
and so that allows it
506
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,840
to grab its prey in the dark
and pull it to them.
507
00:29:34,530 --> 00:29:37,950
Perhaps the strangest
of all the sea creatures found
508
00:29:38,130 --> 00:29:41,460
in the past 20 years
is the ctenophore,
509
00:29:41,550 --> 00:29:43,890
or comb jelly.
510
00:29:44,070 --> 00:29:46,950
It has two neurosystems,
511
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,010
heals from any wound in under
three hours with no scarring,
512
00:29:50,190 --> 00:29:54,150
and can even regenerate
its own brain. 544
513
00:29:56,940 --> 00:29:59,910
they have been dubbed
"aliens of the sea."
514
00:30:00,090 --> 00:30:04,140
But as bizarre
as all these creatures are,
515
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,840
could there be even more
incredible life-forms
516
00:30:06,930 --> 00:30:10,170
we have yet to discover?
517
00:30:10,260 --> 00:30:14,220
Exploration of the deep ocean
is very difficult and dangerous.
518
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,810
In some respects,
a space mission is easier.
519
00:30:18,900 --> 00:30:21,420
The pressures crush
520
00:30:21,510 --> 00:30:25,110
most conventional submarines
and submersibles.
521
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,450
There are only a handful
of missions that have gone,
522
00:30:27,630 --> 00:30:31,320
say, to the very bottomof the deep parts of the ocean,
523
00:30:31,500 --> 00:30:33,390
like the Mariana Trench.
524
00:30:35,460 --> 00:30:39,060
The deepest part of these oceans
are about seven miles deep,
525
00:30:39,150 --> 00:30:41,310
and you need special
bathyspheres or submarines
526
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,840
to go that deep.
527
00:30:43,020 --> 00:30:46,620
And when researchers
do make these journeys,
528
00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:49,230
they’re amazed to find
that there’s actually life
529
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,280
at these extreme depths,
something they didn’t expect.
530
00:30:53,370 --> 00:30:55,800
So now we have to wonder,
531
00:30:55,980 --> 00:30:59,760
is it possible that, at these
extreme depths in our oceans,
532
00:30:59,850 --> 00:31:02,820
there are extraterrestrials
and bases? 565
533
00:31:05,610 --> 00:31:09,030
Could it be that
humanity’s inability
534
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,350
to fully explore Earth’s oceans
has prevented the discovery
535
00:31:13,530 --> 00:31:18,210
of a profound and potentially
disturbing reality:
536
00:31:18,390 --> 00:31:21,000
that alien creatures
from other worlds
537
00:31:21,090 --> 00:31:23,880
not only can and do exist,
538
00:31:23,970 --> 00:31:27,300
but they are most likely
thriving in our oceans?
539
00:31:27,390 --> 00:31:31,530
Not only do many ancient
astronaut theorists say yes,
540
00:31:31,710 --> 00:31:34,230
they also suggest
that not all alien life-forms
541
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,010
are of the silent,
swimming variety.
542
00:31:38,190 --> 00:31:41,700
They believe that the seais vast enough and deep enough
543
00:31:41,790 --> 00:31:45,300
to hide entire colonies
of extraterrestrials,
544
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,910
and some
with technological capabilities
545
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,330
far surpassing our own.
546
00:31:58,170 --> 00:32:00,690
Malibu, California.
547
00:32:00,870 --> 00:32:03,480
2014.
548
00:32:03,570 --> 00:32:06,900
Satellite imagery reveals
a curious formation
549
00:32:06,990 --> 00:32:11,670
on the seabed
six miles off the coast.
550
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,090
The satellite photos
show what seems to be, uh,
551
00:32:15,180 --> 00:32:18,780
an oval, flat-topped structure
552
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:23,100
that’s got legs coming down
that are holding it up.
553
00:32:23,190 --> 00:32:27,150
It’s about
2,000 feet underwater.
554
00:32:27,330 --> 00:32:31,020
In some ways, this would look alittle bit like an oil platform.
555
00:32:34,170 --> 00:32:37,050
In the very same area
as the underwater structure,
556
00:32:37,230 --> 00:32:39,750
locals have reported
seeing strange lights
557
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,640
emerging from the ocean.
558
00:32:41,820 --> 00:32:45,870
There is this
very strange 911 call
559
00:32:46,050 --> 00:32:48,840
from an observer
near Point Dume off Malibu,
560
00:32:48,930 --> 00:32:51,000
saying he saw a light coming out
of the water,
561
00:32:51,180 --> 00:32:53,250
and calling it in
to the sheriff’s station.
562
00:32:53,340 --> 00:32:57,030
In Point Dume,
and the whole area around there,
563
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,260
USOs are phenomenally common.
564
00:33:01,350 --> 00:33:03,960
A USO is an
565
00:33:04,140 --> 00:33:06,750
unidentified submersible object.
566
00:33:08,370 --> 00:33:11,160
Is there an alien base
600 00:33:11,250 --> 00:33:13,230
567
00:33:13,410 --> 00:33:16,110
off the coast of Malibu,
and that’s why
568
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:20,340
there are so many sightings
of USOs off that coast?
569
00:33:20,430 --> 00:33:24,210
An underwater alien base?
570
00:33:24,390 --> 00:33:28,620
Could such
an incredible notion be true?
571
00:33:28,710 --> 00:33:31,410
And if so, is this just one
572
00:33:31,590 --> 00:33:33,750
of many extraterrestrial
installations
573
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,260
hidden deep
beneath Earth’s oceans?
574
00:33:37,350 --> 00:33:40,680
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes,
575
00:33:40,770 --> 00:33:44,460
and point to stories
from all over the world of USOs.
576
00:33:47,070 --> 00:33:50,310
Witnesses have seen UFOs
577
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,650
busting out from the ocean floor
578
00:33:52,740 --> 00:33:55,170
and just taking right offinto the atmosphere
579
00:33:55,260 --> 00:33:58,410
and gone, into space.
580
00:33:58,590 --> 00:34:02,280
You see them off the coast
of California.
581
00:34:02,460 --> 00:34:04,260
You see them a lot
in the Gulf of Mexico.
582
00:34:04,350 --> 00:34:07,680
Spend some time
on the Florida Gulf Coast,
583
00:34:07,770 --> 00:34:09,660
you will see a USO.
584
00:34:11,370 --> 00:34:14,250
Sailors have seen lights
585
00:34:14,430 --> 00:34:17,310
following their ships
underwater.
586
00:34:17,310 --> 00:34:19,290
They’re not submarines,
587
00:34:19,470 --> 00:34:21,180
they’re something else,
something’s going on.
588
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,940
Absolutely anything
could be hiding down there.
589
00:34:27,030 --> 00:34:30,270
If aliens were trying to direct
590
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:31,980
seeds of life,
591
00:34:32,070 --> 00:34:35,040
the most obvious place
that they would hide them 626
592
00:34:38,370 --> 00:34:41,970
And the depths of them
could hide vehicles,
593
00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:44,490
could even hide bases.
594
00:34:44,580 --> 00:34:46,290
Uh, for hundreds,
if not thousands of years,
595
00:34:46,380 --> 00:34:48,720
we would not be aware
of their presence.
596
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,500
Alien craft,
597
00:34:52,590 --> 00:34:55,470
hidden in our oceans
for thousands of years?
598
00:34:55,650 --> 00:34:57,810
While many dismiss the idea
599
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:00,330
as little more
than science fiction,
600
00:35:00,510 --> 00:35:03,210
ancient astronaut theorists
point to a recent innovation
601
00:35:03,300 --> 00:35:05,550
in marine warfare.
602
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,690
In May 2017,
the United Kingdom announced
603
00:35:09,780 --> 00:35:13,830
its newest submarine program,
the Astute class. 639
604
00:35:16,980 --> 00:35:21,660
of almost 100 sailors,
descend more than 1,000 feet,
605
00:35:21,750 --> 00:35:26,160
and remain submerged
for up to 25 years.
606
00:35:26,250 --> 00:35:28,050
The only reason
they need to surface
607
00:35:28,230 --> 00:35:30,570
is to take on food and supplies.
608
00:35:30,750 --> 00:35:33,450
But experts contend
that the ocean
609
00:35:33,630 --> 00:35:35,790
is so rich in resources
610
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,390
that advances in technology
may soon enable submarines
611
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,170
to harvest all of the materials
they need underwater.
612
00:35:43,350 --> 00:35:46,860
The oceans have everything
that the crew of a ship
613
00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:48,750
would need to survive.
614
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,990
It’s got plants and animals
651 00:35:52,170 --> 00:35:54,690
615
00:35:54,780 --> 00:35:58,200
There’s minerals and salt that
can be taken from the water.
616
00:35:58,290 --> 00:36:01,440
You can actually
desalinate the water
617
00:36:01,620 --> 00:36:04,320
to make clean drinking water.
618
00:36:04,410 --> 00:36:08,550
You can even separate
the hydrogen
619
00:36:08,730 --> 00:36:11,160
from the oxygen in the water
620
00:36:11,250 --> 00:36:12,870
to create fuel
621
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,300
and-and air to breathe.
622
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,630
Everything that is necessary
for life
623
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:21,420
can be found in the oceans,
624
00:36:21,510 --> 00:36:23,850
and it may be
that if extraterrestrials
625
00:36:24,030 --> 00:36:27,000
are in our oceans,
they’re not just hiding there,
626
00:36:27,180 --> 00:36:29,700
this may be
their preferred environment.
627
00:36:29,790 --> 00:36:32,580
Is it possiblethat extraterrestrials
628
00:36:32,670 --> 00:36:34,920
are not just hiding
beneath the sea,
629
00:36:35,100 --> 00:36:38,700
but view our oceans
as their preferred territory?
630
00:36:38,790 --> 00:36:41,850
Some scientists suggest
631
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:45,360
that aquatic creatures
are better-suited than humans
632
00:36:45,450 --> 00:36:47,340
for space travel.
633
00:36:48,510 --> 00:36:50,400
Because of the fact
634
00:36:50,580 --> 00:36:52,920
that we’re terrestrial
and we walk on the ground,
635
00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:56,160
as humans, we’re very tied
to our 2-D motions...
636
00:36:56,250 --> 00:36:59,130
that is moving only left,
right and forward and back.
637
00:37:00,300 --> 00:37:01,740
Creatures that grow up
638
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,440
in a fundamentally
aquatic environment
639
00:37:04,530 --> 00:37:07,770
are much more used to allof the 3-D motion that comes
640
00:37:07,860 --> 00:37:09,750
with being able
to move up and down,
641
00:37:09,930 --> 00:37:13,080
as well as forward and backward
and left and right in the ocean.
642
00:37:13,170 --> 00:37:16,410
Our musculoskeletal system needs
the impact of gravity, um,
643
00:37:16,500 --> 00:37:19,200
to remain healthy,
and so, I think,
644
00:37:19,290 --> 00:37:21,540
just the weightlessness
is one of the biggest challenges
645
00:37:21,720 --> 00:37:24,240
to humans living
in space conditions.
646
00:37:24,330 --> 00:37:26,400
So you can imagine
that something adapted
647
00:37:26,580 --> 00:37:29,010
to an aqueous environment could
648
00:37:29,100 --> 00:37:31,170
potentially do better
in a low-gravity environment.
649
00:37:33,060 --> 00:37:35,040
Considering the advantages
687 00:37:35,130 --> 00:37:39,180
650
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,070
and the fact that more than 90%
651
00:37:41,250 --> 00:37:44,670
of Earth’s oceans
remain unexamined...
652
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,190
is it possible
that there are creatures
653
00:37:47,370 --> 00:37:48,720
lurking beneath the water
654
00:37:48,810 --> 00:37:52,410
that are more sophisticated
than humans?
655
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:55,020
If so, could they have been
sent here on meteors
656
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:56,460
from distant planets?
657
00:37:58,620 --> 00:38:01,050
And does our inability
to explore the extreme depths
658
00:38:01,230 --> 00:38:04,380
of their world mean that
it is only a matter of time
659
00:38:04,470 --> 00:38:06,990
before they emerge from the sea
660
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,690
to take over ours?
699 00:38:15,090 --> 00:38:16,890
661
00:38:17,070 --> 00:38:20,040
2008.
662
00:38:20,130 --> 00:38:23,910
Arnold Landé, a retired
heart and lung surgeon,
663
00:38:24,090 --> 00:38:27,510
announces he has patented a
revolutionary type of scuba suit
664
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,470
that will allow humans
to breathe liquid air.
665
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,170
Key to his invention
is a special solution
666
00:38:34,350 --> 00:38:36,780
of highly oxygenated
perfluorocarbons,
667
00:38:36,870 --> 00:38:38,490
a type of liquid
668
00:38:38,670 --> 00:38:41,910
that can dissolve
enormous quantities of gas.
669
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,780
And while the technology
is still in development,
670
00:38:45,870 --> 00:38:49,290
if Landé succeeds,
humans will be able to dive
671
00:38:49,470 --> 00:38:52,350
to more extreme depths
than ever before. 711
672
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,010
could we discover that humans
share the Earth
673
00:38:59,100 --> 00:39:02,520
with much more intelligent
and sophisticated life-forms
674
00:39:02,610 --> 00:39:05,220
than anything found on land?
675
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:09,540
Frankly, we have no idea
what might be down there.
676
00:39:09,630 --> 00:39:12,150
Exploration has been
very limited.
677
00:39:12,240 --> 00:39:14,670
There are vast parts
of the ocean
678
00:39:14,850 --> 00:39:18,090
about which we know
absolutely nothing.
679
00:39:18,180 --> 00:39:20,970
As humans, we tend to believe
that we have dominion
680
00:39:21,060 --> 00:39:25,110
over the Earth, but in the vast
oceans beneath us,
681
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,710
there could be all kindsof advanced civilizations.
682
00:39:28,890 --> 00:39:32,040
Even ones that have been here
for much longer
683
00:39:32,130 --> 00:39:34,110
than we’ve been on this planet.
684
00:39:34,290 --> 00:39:37,350
And they’ve come here
from other solar systems
685
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,690
and then came to our planet
686
00:39:39,870 --> 00:39:42,930
where they’re now
living underwater.
687
00:39:43,020 --> 00:39:45,000
And it seems incredible to us,
688
00:39:45,090 --> 00:39:47,610
but we may be seeing
their ships,
689
00:39:47,790 --> 00:39:50,760
these USOs coming
out of the water,
690
00:39:50,850 --> 00:39:54,810
and there may be some
highly advanced civilization
691
00:39:54,990 --> 00:39:59,040
that’s in these vast oceans
that we have yet to explore.
692
00:39:59,220 --> 00:40:01,110
Anything could be down there.
733 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,440
693
00:40:04,530 --> 00:40:09,120
that the Earth served
as some gigantic Petri dish.
694
00:40:09,300 --> 00:40:12,720
And so you have to wonder
what else can emerge on Earth
695
00:40:12,900 --> 00:40:14,520
that we don’t even know about?
696
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:18,210
Could there be more
sophisticated life-forms
697
00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:20,370
than us,
not just on distant planets,
698
00:40:20,460 --> 00:40:22,980
but right here
in our own oceans?
699
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,130
Not aliens, but earthlings?
700
00:40:26,310 --> 00:40:29,460
If extraterrestrials
seeded the Earth
701
00:40:29,550 --> 00:40:31,800
and continue to use it
as a genetic laboratory,
702
00:40:31,980 --> 00:40:34,410
as ancient astronaut
theorists suggest,
703
00:40:34,500 --> 00:40:36,930
could further
deep-sea exploration 745
704
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,950
Perhaps creatures resembling
the amphibious gods
705
00:40:44,130 --> 00:40:46,740
depicted by our ancestors?
706
00:40:46,830 --> 00:40:49,620
And will we only have true
dominion over the Earth
707
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,320
once we are able
to fully explore
708
00:40:52,410 --> 00:40:55,650
and inhabit
these depths as well?
709
00:40:55,830 --> 00:40:58,170
Some ancient astronaut
theorists believe
710
00:40:58,350 --> 00:41:02,580
the creatures of the deep may
already have plans for humanity.
711
00:41:02,670 --> 00:41:04,920
Are there extraterrestrials
in fact in our oceans
712
00:41:05,100 --> 00:41:08,880
that are experimenting
with different types of beings? 755
713
00:41:12,300 --> 00:41:14,190
with some of these discoveries?
714
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,170
Is that what’s in our future,
715
00:41:16,350 --> 00:41:18,510
that there could be
extraterrestrial beings
716
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,310
that will come out
of Earth’s ocean
717
00:41:20,490 --> 00:41:22,920
that will deliver some kind
of revelation that says,
718
00:41:23,010 --> 00:41:25,350
"Hey guys,
this isn’t all there is.
719
00:41:25,530 --> 00:41:29,940
You can, in fact, transform
yourself into this,"
720
00:41:30,030 --> 00:41:32,550
and that will be the future
evolution of humanity.
721
00:41:32,730 --> 00:41:35,520
Instead of looking
for alien civilizations
722
00:41:35,610 --> 00:41:37,770
beyond our solar system,
723
00:41:37,950 --> 00:41:41,730
might we find them in thedarkest depths of our oceans?
724
00:41:44,070 --> 00:41:46,050
Is it possible
that there is already a species
725
00:41:46,140 --> 00:41:48,030
more advanced than humans
726
00:41:48,210 --> 00:41:51,360
hiding out in places
we can’t reach
727
00:41:51,450 --> 00:41:55,770
that have been there
for thousands of years?
728
00:41:55,950 --> 00:41:58,740
Perhaps we will make
alien contact
729
00:41:58,830 --> 00:42:01,710
not when they come down
from the sky
730
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,500
but when they reemerge
from the sea.
731
00:42:04,550 --> 00:42:09,100
