This machine was given to the Israelites by extraterrestrials.

In every religious tradition, there are foods believed to possess extraordinary

power, and some that are even consumed by the gods themselves.

The gods ate the gods' drink, and this is what kept them divine.

But is it possible that what our ancestors described as gods were in fact

visitors from another world?

And if so, might the food of these gods reveal a powerful link to mankind's

extraterrestrial origins?

These foods were directly introduced into the human experience in order to

awaken, to bring us closer to the gods.

There is a doorway in the universe.

Beyond it, is the promise of truth it demands we question everything

never been alone

As humanity prepares to travel to other worlds, one of the biggest challenges

facing scientists is how to provide sustenance beyond that found on planet

Earth. When we think of the early pioneers, we think of, quote, living off

land. You can't do that in outer space.

There's no soil. There's no oxygen.

There's very little of the basic ingredients that we take for granted on

planet Earth.

So living in outer space presents a whole new set of challenges.

Currently, NASA researchers are experimenting with various possible

the problem of keeping humans fed during long -term missions.

For long expeditions in space, there are really three things we have to do.

One, either bring our food with us.

Wherever we go, take the food. Wagon trade.

Two, terraform a planet or find a planet where we can already grow food that can

sustain us. Or three, change our own metabolism so that we can

exist on a whole different kind of food.

But is it even possible to sustain life in the vacuum of space?

In recent years, Biologists have discovered organisms on our planet that

thrive in extreme conditions, like those found in the deepest depths of Earth's

oceans. The prevailing assumption was that there wasn't much life at the

of the ocean. So this idea that the deep sea could actually contain life,

it's pretty phenomenal, because I think we had assumed that without light we

couldn't have life.

So the existence of whole ecosystems that are supported by chemical reactions

that don't need light to generate biomolecules and energy, I think was

revolutionary.

But could the key to mankind's survival on other worlds be found not in a

laboratory, but by studying past accounts of extraterrestrial encounters?

Eagle River, Wisconsin.

April 18, 1961.

Plumber Joe Simonton is finishing his lunch when he notices a metallic saucer

-shaped crack landing just outside his kitchen window.

I raced out to see what it was, and by that time, there was a hatchway opening

up in the top of it, just like the trunk of your car.

And in there, there stood a little man.

I say a little man, about five foot tall.

holding up a jug, and he motioned he wanted to drink. He motioned for water.

I walked up to him to get this jug, and I looked at his eyes, and they were so

penetrating that I had to look away.

Simonton took the container and filled it with water.

When he returned to the flying saucer, he noticed a second beam with what

appeared to be food -like wafers.

He didn't say a word. He just reached over and he got a handful of them, four

them, and he handed them down to me, which I have one here yet.

According to Simonton, the two aliens promptly closed the hatch and took off.

Within two or three seconds, it was out of sight.

Well, there I stood in the driveway wondering what the heck I saw, what had

happened. And if that was their food, God help them, because I took a bite of

one of them and it tasted like a piece of cardboard.

The case immediately garnered the attention of U .S. government agencies

into the UFO phenomenon, including Project Blue Book and its science

astronomer J. Allen Hynek.

Joe Simonton, this is an interesting case because it has a level of physical

evidence that we don't often see with a lot of these cases.

Nightcap. The National Investigations Committee for Aerial Phenomena, which

largely CIA back in that period of time, wants to investigate. And J. Allen

Hynek, who was doing investigations for the Air Force, he wanted to investigate.

Hynek obtained samples of the wafers and requested a full analysis by the U .S.

Department of Health Food and Drug Laboratory.

The report stated that the wafers consisted of chemically modified

plants. including buckwheat, soybeans, and bran.

But curiously, not even the tiniest trace amount of salt was detected in the

sample.

There was no salt at all found in this analysis by NICAP and J. Allen

Hynek.

And it's puzzling.

One of the interesting things about life on this planet is it did start in the

oceans, and the ocean is salt water. And so fundamentally, the water in our

bodies, in our cells, and in pretty much every living thing has a certain amount

of salt concentration, and it's ubiquitous everywhere.

According to scientists, every cell of every living organism on Earth contains

trace amount of sodium chloride, or salt.

So could the complete lack of salt in Joe Simonton's so -called alien wafer

really be proof that it came from an extraterrestrial source?

We see in outer space thousands of planets with different kinds of

so it's definitely possible that you could have an entire planet with very

little salt on it.

What if salt is as poisonous to those aliens?

as cyanide is to us.

That's what that alien contact could presuppose, that we've learned something

about what's poisonous to them.

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that support for the Joe Simonton story and

the notion that salt might be poisonous to some extraterrestrials that have

visited Earth can be found in ancient tales from around the world in which

is used to ward off alien entities.

The salt connection to the Simonton story is very interesting because it

connects to other mythologies involving demonic beings or fairy beings.

They say that if you pour salt on the ground in front of a fairy, it has to

automatically, or that you can throw salt over your shoulder and this will

off evil spirits.

The Shinto religion uses salt as a protective mechanism.

So for salt to be lacking in these pancakes is extraordinary because it

us to these ancient stories, and it actually confirms these ancient stories.

But if the stories of both the past and present are true, and these alien

visitors cannot consume salt,

How have they been able to sustain themselves in a place where salt is

Ancient astronaut theorists believe that the answer to this one simple question

may reveal both an alien agenda on Earth and perhaps even the purpose behind the

creation of humankind.

Egypt

The 14th century B .C.

According to the Hebrew Bible's book of Exodus, the prophet Moses helps the

Jewish slaves to escape the tyranny of the Pharaoh, leading them across the Red

Sea and into the Sinai Desert.

During the Exodus phase, you know, you're wandering in the desert for

years. What do you eat?

Well, God provides this magical substance.

Moses appealed to Yahweh, the Old Testament God, and Yahweh caused manna,

this food of the heavens, to rain down upon the Israelites.

But according to ancient astronaut theorists, the story of the Israelites

receiving manna from heaven is not a story about a magical food being sent by

Almighty God, but one of extraterrestrials using their advanced

order to prevent a group of migrating humans from starving.

We assumed that we were looking at gods in the past.

We didn't know we might be looking at aliens.

In 1978, linguist George Sassoon, and electrical engineer Rodney Dale

released their book, The Mana Machine.

In it, they propose that the supplementary Hebrew texts of the Zohar

surprisingly detailed descriptions that point to mana being supplied by a

mechanical device.

We have a concise description of it in the ancient Jewish text of the Zohar,

where they describe the transportable one with the tanks.

Dale and Sassoon looked at these stories and they came out with the idea that

this is not a description of God at all. It's a description of a machine.

The manna machine was this tower -like structure and it had these two giant

tanks and a dispenser.

Manna is the product of that machine and it is based on algae

cultures. This manna machine...

had to be taken apart every Saturday. And this was the one day that

the tribe did not have any food.

The basic proposition by Dale and Sassoon is that this machine was given

to the Israelites by extraterrestrials.

Could it be that extraterrestrials provided technology to the Israelites to

sustain them?

during their long journey through the desert?

For the answer, ancient astronaut theorists point to passages describing a

pillar of cloud during the day and a pillar of fire guiding them at night.

They're following a light that's guiding them as they wander for 40 years

through these deserts of the Sinai and northern Saudi Arabia.

So you have to ask yourself, Is it possible that this killer of fire is a

that was working with Moses to bring the Israelites to the Promised Land?

If extraterrestrials provided the Israelites with a food dispensing

it possible that they had been using this or a similar technology to sustain

themselves?

Perhaps the same technology as the one that produced the mysterious salt -free

wafer. that Joe Simonton claimed was given to him by aliens in 1961.

As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the answer lies not in

further study of the so -called manna machine, but by looking into other

possible extraterrestrial food sources.

I think there's a definite connection to be drawn between a lot of the food

preparation practice that we see associated with all sorts of major

and the modern UFO phenomena.

If we look back into ancient religions, one of the things that we find time and

again, no matter which part of the world it is, is the issue of sacrifice of

animals.

Now, the big question is, why was this being done?

Well, I think we could make an interesting scenario if, for example,

required specific food and liquid items.

There are all sorts of religions that have food restrictions.

In the Jewish tradition, we have the word kosher, what is acceptable food.

In the Islamic tradition, halal, exactly the same thing, what food is allowed,

what food is acceptable.

And so, for example, when you kill an animal, you cut the throat, you drain

blood, you want as little blood there as possible.

The handling and management of blood in kosher and halal practice is

especially important because it is generally considered reserved for God. I

wouldn't be surprised at all if blood did not play a big role in their food.

if people in the past had seen them consuming blood, it might have become

higher beings had the right to consume the blood, not human beings.

Malheur National Forest, Kearney County, Oregon, July 30th, 2019.

A rancher discovers the mutilated carcasses of five of his prized voles.

At a loss to explain the deaths, authorities note that the animals have

entirely drained of blood.

This is in keeping with many similar mutilations reported around the world.

Animals of every type you can think of, large and small, have been bloodlessly

mutilated.

Wild animals, deer, elk, marmots, reindeer, kangaroos,

snakes, all found bloodlessly mutilated.

When cows are mutilated, one of the things we notice is that they're

drained of blood.

Anguinated. What could that possibly mean?

According to FBI statistics, the agency has documented over 10 ,000 official

reports of similar animal mutilations over the past half century.

Investigative journalist Linda Moulton Howe began researching cattle

in the late 1970s. When I produced The Strange Harvest about the animal

mutilations,

All of it was a brand new landscape for me as an investigative reporter and TV

producer. And it led me to people who were saying the perpetrators are

from outer space.

And the whole issue of what are they?

Do they eat?

Do they drink? Are they like a what?

During her investigation,

Linda met with a woman from the Las Cruces, New Mexico area who claimed to

been abducted from the scene and taken aboard a craft.

Once inside the craft, the woman encountered extraterrestrial beings.

They led her to a large vat containing dark liquid with body parts floating in

it.

They're all floating in this round container and something puts in her head

telepathically.

that it has something to do with sustenance.

Is there something in both animal and human blood that is necessary in order

sustain the life of extraterrestrials visiting planet Earth?

And if so, could finding the answer provide an important key, not only in

understanding of alien life, but in our search for a means of survival on other

worlds? As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, The answer

found by examining the strange connection between human blood and

Mount Olympus, Greece.

For the ancient Greeks, this was the home of the gods.

Gods that were very much like humans, except that they could live forever,

courtesy of a mysterious drink called...

Ambrosia was literally the food of immortality. In the ancient world, the

ate, the gods drank, and this is what kept them divine. This is what kept them

alive forever, which is one of the crucial differences between the divine

the human.

While ambrosia was reserved for the gods, the ancient Greek texts also

stories of this divine food being shared with select humans and extending their

lifespans indefinitely.

We might imagine that it is some sort of liquid or paste

or ointment that has special properties.

By drinking it, you are extending your life.

And if you drank this ambrosia over many, many years, you could have a

sense of immortality in a way.

Substances like ambrosia, can be found in numerous ancient traditions.

In China, there were stories of the peaches of immortality.

The Norse spoke of ethune's apples.

But as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the ubiquity of

story also provides further evidence that ancient peoples came into contact

the same otherworldly beings.

Ancient astronaut theorists look at the gods as extraterrestrial beings, as

aliens.

If you're talking about beings that are traveling the stars for generations,

they're going to need some kind of sustenance that will sustain them during

these voyages. And that appears to be what ambrosia was.

Could it be that the ancient stories about ambrosia and similar elixirs were

actually descriptions of a substance that extraterrestrials used to

long voyages through space?

And if so, Was it seen as a source of immortality, not only because of its

ability to prolong life, but also because it sustained alien travelers

thousands of years in space?

Perhaps further clues to the answers can be found by examining the many accounts

of ancient people living far longer than the average life expectancy today.

The biblical lifespans are extraordinary. So the Bible says that

930 years, that Noah lived for 950 years, that Methuselah lived for 969

years.

It seems like an odd concept, but you have many records of, not just in the

Bible, but all throughout history, all these other cultures also talk about

this. You know, the Sumerian kings list, Chinese masters living to 300 years old

into the 1700s.

Even ancient Philippine records talk about these kings that lived long lives.

It's found all around the world.

Some of the stories that we hear about this drink ambrosia connect to these

journeys to the celestial realm.

In fact, Enoch actually describes that before he was able to go up to the

heavens, He is actually anointed, and he says it smelled like ambrosia.

But the question is, was he really anointed?

What if ambrosia was something that you had to take in in order to prepare for a

journey to outer space, and it gave you immortality?

If ambrosia was an alien substance that could both extend life and facilitate

space travel, Just what was it?

Something that could only be found or concocted on alien worlds?

Or something that could be found in abundance right here on Earth?

obtains approval to begin clinical trials on an experimental treatment to

reverse aging.

Medical researchers inject older test subjects with blood plasma from young

donors in an effort to improve their health and extend their lifespan.

Hundreds of patients sign up to participate, paying $8 ,000 for each

blood plasma they receive.

Whether it's true or not is that by infusing yourself with the blood of

people, you will gain a longer life because you won't have, as the

used to say, tired blood or old blood.

You're literally giving yourself a new lease on life.

that blood can impart immortality is widespread, found in legends of vampires

and even historical accounts of human blood sacrifice.

Is it possible that blood, and particularly human blood, has life

properties far beyond our current understanding?

When it comes to the issue of extraterrestrials and blood, there's one

the idea that the aliens may actually

take blood.

Now, that's not completely out of the question.

The main reason being, it contains iron, proteins, nutrients.

In other words, it'd be the classic important item for aliens

to dine upon.

But we cannot do that without causing extreme damage, possibly even death, to

ourselves. That sort of suggests possibly also that blood is an item of

extraterrestrials and not of us.

Does human blood possess life -sustaining properties far beyond its

inside the body?

And if so, could the substance known as ambrosia be flowing through the veins?

of every human?

As far as many ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the answer is

And they suggest that this profound notion was first conveyed to humankind

than 2 ,000 years ago by a man named Jesus.

Vatican City 2019

Thousands of pilgrims bow their heads as Pope Francis performs the liturgy of

the Eucharist and consecrates the offering of bread and wine.

According to church historians, the ceremony's roots lie in the Last Supper

Jesus shared with his disciples shortly before he sacrificed his life on the

cross.

As he passed the bread, Jesus said, Take this and eat it. It is my body.

And as he passed the wine, he said, drink this, it is the blood of the

And out of that moment, at a meal, grew a great ritual, a ceremony, a sacrament

that is repeated to this day around the world by millions of people.

In the Roman Catholic tradition, during the Mass, the priest is empowered by the

prayers that energize the bread and the wine such that they become transformed

or transubstantiated.

into the living presence of the body and the blood of Christ.

Transubstantiation is one of the Catholic Church's most exalted

Catholics are encouraged to believe that through this miracle, somehow, these

ordinary wafers and ordinary wine become the blood and body of Jesus.

Could this rite of turning bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus,

really have otherworldly origins?

Isn't it interesting that we have numerous traditions around the globe

us that blood is the substance reserved for the gods?

Now we have to ask, is there a connection between the ritual of the

mass and extraterrestrials?

Maybe it's possible by imbibing certain bloods. the extraterrestrials are

actually able to extend their lifespans to incredible degrees.

So, when Jesus talked about the blood of the covenant, just maybe Jesus was

talking in a symbolic fashion when he talked about how wine and bread sustains

us, but something very, very different sustained him.

That the wine that sustains us...

is the parallel of the blood for Jesus.

If alien beings have been coming to Earth for thousands of years, is it

that they have evolved to a point where they do not physically consume food in

the way that humans do, but are able to draw sustenance from certain energetic

substances, like blood?

And does the ritual of communion provide a clue as to how humankind must evolve

in order to become like the god.

When we think of food, we immediately have that image of a hamburger, french

fries, and there you are munching away.

But I'm a physicist.

We realize that the essence of food is energy.

And energy can exist in many, many forms. So think of widening your

possibilities. Anytime there's a source of energy, there's a possibility of

using it for food for an alien species.

Myself, I think these things are really possible and maybe there is something

there. But at the same time, the story of the Eucharist being created in the

upper room is one of the most profound and beautiful stories I know.

And I prefer to think of it that way, personally.

For centuries, theologists have debated the origin and meaning of the Eucharist.

But it is not an entirely unique ritual.

And ancient astronaut theorists suggest...

that a similar ceremony established in ancient India provides further clues as

to the nature of alien sustenance.

Soma is a huge thing in the early Indian traditions, the big data, the earliest

Hindu texts.

Talk about this. So Soma is this drink that gives the people who consume it,

know, the powers of this God or the thoughts of this God, the abilities

Soma was brought to humans by Agni, the fire god. The same story you have with

the holy wine or the Eucharist. And it's like somehow we are being helped by

these beings through these different substances.

I find that really fascinating.

They have a saying in the Rig Vita that if you drink Soma, you see God and you

connect. But they also said it promoted immortality and longevity as well.

Ancient people are drinking the special drink of Soma, and they're drinking the

blood of the gods. And so we look too at the Catholic concept of

transubstantiation, where the body and the blood of Christ.

are then in these wafers and wine that we drink. And you have to wonder if

even that is an old relic of the early Soma

rituals.

Is there an extraterrestrial inspiration behind both the rites of communion and

the ancient rites of Soma?

Were they intended to teach us vital lessons about longevity?

and perhaps point the way to our own future as a space -bearing people?

And if so, might there be other stories of other food substances humans were

given to eat or drink that point to an alien agenda for mankind?

During an international book tour for Communion, his best -selling account of

his own alien abduction, author Whitley Streber receives a visit at his hotel

room from a mysterious being.

I had a 45 -minute conversation with him. Then he gave me a glass of liquid

drink.

It was white, and I didn't want to drink it, but he insisted that I do it.

Somehow or another, I did it.

It was extremely bitter.

And the next thing I knew, I was waking up in the morning.

I thought maybe it's some kind of alien potion.

But recently I did some more research on it, and I found that it's in the past

called the milk of Nepenthe.

It was first mentioned in the poet Homer's writings.

Then it was known throughout the ancient world, no one was really sure what it

is, but the symptoms described are just like what I experienced.

Nepenthe is something that makes people forget, as it did me.

Homer, the legendary 8th century B .C. Greek poet, mentions Nepenthe in his

poem, The Odyssey.

Plato writes about a similar substance in his book 10 of the Republic.

The drink was said to help humans fall into profound amnesia and forget the

trauma of their encounters with the gods, encounters that today we might

alien abduction.

It was also given to people who had gone to Mount Olympus and been with the gods

on their way down so that they would forget what they had seen.

and they would not want to commit suicide.

In Greek mythology, every time it was given to someone, they would forget

anything that happened to them in the last 48 hours.

Now what's interesting is that modern -day abductees talk about the same

So my question is, Is it possible that extraterrestrials are giving substances

to people in order to forget what has happened to them?

If extraterrestrials have been using some type of drink to cloud the memories

humans they come into contact with, what is the purpose?

Is it simply to spare them the trauma of an alien encounter?

Or could it be to hide the fact that they are extracting blood?

Some ancient astronaut theorists believe the answer can be found by examining

the most important moment of extraterrestrial intervention in human

New York City, 1976.

After spending 30 years deciphering the Sumerian language, researcher Zechariah

Sitchin publishes his book, The Twelfth Planet.

In it, he proposes...

that a race of extraterrestrials known as the Anunnaki genetically modified

ancient primates in the distant past, turning them into modern humans.

In his books, Zechariah Sitchin dealt at length with the Sumerian creation

stories, the Atrahasis and others that tell of these beings, the Anunnaki,

putting their image on humanity.

that they genetically altered a proto -human to create a new race of beings,

Homo sapiens.

According to Sitchin's translation of the Sumerian cuneiform writings, the

Anunnaki produced the first successful Homo sapiens around 250 ,000 B .C.

While scholars in the 1970s dismissed Sitchin's theory, In the 1980s,

anthropologists traced the mitochondrial DNA of all modern humans to a common

female ancestor living in Africa roughly 250 ,000 years ago.

Geneticists call her mitochondrial Eve.

We were wise, but now we're even wiser. Just like that. And geneticists to this

day cannot quite figure out, well, what was that?

that change that virtually happened overnight.

So when you have these weird examples where stuff essentially happens

I'm suggesting this was done due to an artificial mutation.

Researchers following in Sitchin's footsteps have noted a largely

aspect of the Sumerian cylindrical seal.

depicting the celebration of the first successful human experiment.

The scene features a figure stirring a jar and another holding a flask directed

at their original creation.

Many associate the scene with the biblical account of the temptation of

Eve.

Adam and Eve, before their encounter with this bright snake, this talking

serpent, who is equated with Enki in the Sumerian tradition, this genetic

engineer that came from another world and altered our human DNA, that before

this event, Adam and Eve pretty much lived like primitive or a primate -type

beings.

Could the story of Adam and Eve's transformation be a memory of the moment

genome was altered by an extraterrestrial race, as proposed by

And if so, Was that alteration done by mechanical gene splicing in a laboratory

as 21st century technology might do it today?

Or could it have been accomplished in a far more sophisticated way by simply

giving our ancestors some highly advanced alien substance designed to

primates into people?

Here's the story of Adam and Eve living blissfully in this Edenic garden.

and just watching the sunset and having sex and not doing a whole lot and then

suddenly this serpent being comes to them and offers them some special food

eat and they completely change into what we would call modern people and here we

have through the intake of food we have a fundamental change and in a sense an

evolutionary leap

From primitive humans to more modern humans who are more aware of themselves

their surroundings.

Did extraterrestrials alter life on Earth to create sentient beings and then

amnesia -inducing substances in order to keep them from knowing the facts behind

their alien origins?

Ancient astronaut theorist, Sayaz.

and suggests that as humans begin to take their next evolutionary step into

space, the veil of ignorance will soon be removed.

220 miles above the Earth.

Researchers on the International Space Station are currently testing an

hydroponic system to make food.

Utilizing artificial light and a water -based nutrient solution, the microalgae

contained within the unit takes in carbon dioxide breathed out by the

astronauts.

The process allows the microalgae to quickly multiply and produces a

supply of nourishment on board the craft.

We breathe in oxygen and we get our carbon dioxide.

But in a hydroponic farm, you have plants growing in liquid.

And it takes in the waste products of human combustion and expels oxygen as a

consequence. That would give you a self -sustaining ecosystem to maintain the

human body. NASA is experimenting with...

hydroponic machines that enable the astronauts to grow a kind of

algae that is reminiscent of the manna from the Old Testament.

Could it be that's our own manna machine?

As manned missions to Mars are within our grasp, logistical obstacles, like

to sustain the crew, must first be overcome.

Could the solution be found not only by altering the substances we bring with us

into space, but by altering ourselves?

We can conceive of entirely new kinds of life forms based on energy.

So food is the energy that fuels us.

But it's a real possibility that as we start to explore outer space, we may

to genetically modify ourselves to alter our diet so that we ingest different

forms of energy.

When we look back at these unusual foods of the gods,

You have to wonder if that is not a direction that we have been meant to go

become a space -faring race ourselves.

So everything has come full circle here, from ancient time and these unusual

foods of the gods to what we're doing today.

I think this entire phenomenon of aliens, of food, of mysterious drinks,

of the most important when it comes to us engaging with them.

And it may well be the case that that is the primary way in which we can

actually have some sort of communion with them.

As we evolved into a space -faring species...

will the concept and function of food take on a new meaning for humanity?

Perhaps the intriguing evidence of how aliens may have survived on Earth will

provide a roadmap to our own future.

It will open up new possibilities and new ways to sustain ourselves for much

longer time spans.

It will allow us to venture deeper into space, colonize new worlds, and create

new versions of ourselves, as we continue to follow in the footsteps of

alien ancestors.
