Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,540 --> 00:00:09,306
I'm on my way to Roswell, New Mexico,
which is ground zero
2
00:00:09,377 --> 00:00:11,641
for modern day UFO researchers.
3
00:00:13,147 --> 00:00:17,709
It's very exciting to go to a city
that's steeped in alien lore,
4
00:00:17,785 --> 00:00:21,221
but I'm not going there
to investigate the Roswell crash site
5
00:00:21,289 --> 00:00:23,519
because that's been done
a thousand times before.
6
00:00:23,591 --> 00:00:27,857
My mission involves
a much more recent discovery.
7
00:00:28,129 --> 00:00:33,260
I'm headed out in search
of the Roswell Rock.
8
00:00:34,569 --> 00:00:37,629
My name is Giorgio Tsoukalos.
9
00:00:37,705 --> 00:00:42,870
I explore the world that exists
between reality and speculation,
10
00:00:43,144 --> 00:00:44,907
the known and the unknown.
11
00:00:45,179 --> 00:00:47,739
What we've been taught
by mainstream scholars
12
00:00:47,815 --> 00:00:50,340
is not the whole picture.
13
00:00:50,418 --> 00:00:56,186
But I'm convinced that every day
we are one step closer to the truth.
14
00:01:04,432 --> 00:01:08,198
On July 7th, 1947...
15
00:01:08,269 --> 00:01:13,764
an unidentified object crashed
on a ranch just outside the town
16
00:01:13,841 --> 00:01:15,832
of Roswell, New Mexico.
17
00:01:18,346 --> 00:01:21,713
The next day, the local newspaper
announced that officials
18
00:01:21,783 --> 00:01:24,809
from the army airfield
had reported the capture
19
00:01:24,886 --> 00:01:27,719
of a "flying saucer."
20
00:01:28,590 --> 00:01:32,321
But just a few hours later,
the military revised that statement
21
00:01:32,393 --> 00:01:37,296
to say the object was nothing more
than a weather balloon.
22
00:01:37,365 --> 00:01:41,961
According to reports,
the government removed all debris
23
00:01:42,236 --> 00:01:43,635
from the site of the crash.
24
00:01:43,705 --> 00:01:49,473
And to this day not a single piece
of evidence has been recovered.
25
00:01:49,544 --> 00:01:53,605
Now, this to me is the most
fascinating part of the story
26
00:01:53,681 --> 00:01:56,707
because the object
that I'm here to investigate
27
00:01:56,784 --> 00:02:00,845
was found near
the vicinity of the crash site.
28
00:02:00,922 --> 00:02:07,725
So, what if it is the one piece
of evidence the military missed?

00:02:26,881 --> 00:02:28,849
How are you today?
Good. How about you?
31
00:02:28,916 --> 00:02:31,009
Good. Thanks.
What can I get you to drink?
32
00:02:31,285 --> 00:02:33,549
I'll have some coffee, please.
Would you like creamer?
33
00:02:33,621 --> 00:02:35,646
No, just black. Thank you. Okay.
34
00:02:37,792 --> 00:02:40,022
What brings you
to Roswell, New Mexico?
35
00:02:40,294 --> 00:02:44,594
I'm meeting a guy who might have
potentially found an alien artifact,
36
00:02:44,666 --> 00:02:46,429
so I'm here to investigate.
37
00:02:46,501 --> 00:02:47,331
Really?
38
00:02:47,402 --> 00:02:49,962
You're not the first one
to ever say that walking into this...
39
00:02:50,038 --> 00:02:51,733
Ever, right?
Never.
40
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,532
A local man named Robert Ridge
discovered the Roswell Rock
41
00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:58,875
about 10 years ago
while tracking deer in the desert.
42
00:02:58,946 --> 00:03:04,509
And he found it right near the area
where the UFO allegedly crashed in 1947.
43
00:03:05,987 --> 00:03:10,822
Now, the Roswell Rock is this small
triangular-shaped rock of brown color.
44
00:03:10,892 --> 00:03:15,761
It has this design on top of it
that isn't etched into the rock,
45
00:03:15,830 --> 00:03:19,664
but it actually protrudes from it.
46
00:03:19,734 --> 00:03:23,363
And it's interesting to me that
most people I meet in Roswell
47
00:03:23,438 --> 00:03:25,702
have never even heard of this rock.
48
00:03:27,528 --> 00:03:28,552
Robert?
49
00:03:28,629 --> 00:03:30,824
Hey. Giorgio.
Pleasure to meet you.
50
00:03:30,898 --> 00:03:32,923
Thanks so much
for coming out and meeting me.
51
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,433
You bet.
Thank you for seeing me.
52
00:03:34,502 --> 00:03:35,400
Have a seat.
Yeah.
53
00:03:35,470 --> 00:03:37,335
How are you folks?
Good, how are you today?
54
00:03:37,405 --> 00:03:38,394
Good, good.
55
00:03:38,473 --> 00:03:40,031
Can I get you something to drink?
56
00:03:40,108 --> 00:03:41,507
Some iced tea, please.
57
00:03:41,576 --> 00:03:42,873
Lemon?
Please.
58
00:03:43,878 --> 00:03:44,810
Did you bring the rock?
59
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:46,870
Yeah, yeah, I did.
60
00:03:50,918 --> 00:03:52,613
Oh, wow.
61
00:03:55,857 --> 00:04:00,055
I did not expect this level of detail.
62
00:04:00,128 --> 00:04:04,064
It is smaller than I had expected.
63
00:04:04,132 --> 00:04:08,796
Definitely heavier than I expected.
64
00:04:09,971 --> 00:04:12,064
I mean, the precision is...
65
00:04:14,075 --> 00:04:15,702
Wow.
66
00:04:15,777 --> 00:04:19,440
The Roswell Rock reminds me
of precision-cut rocks
67
00:04:19,514 --> 00:04:23,541
I've seen before
in other parts of the world,
68
00:04:23,618 --> 00:04:29,454
like the obelisks in Egypt
or Ollantaytambo in Peru.
69
00:04:29,991 --> 00:04:33,427
Are there any
strange properties to this rock?
70
00:04:33,494 --> 00:04:37,089
It has some type
of magnetic field in it.
71
00:04:37,165 --> 00:04:39,395
A magnetic field? How do you mean?
Yeah. Yeah.
72
00:04:39,467 --> 00:04:41,526
Well, it reacts to a magnet.
73
00:04:41,602 --> 00:04:42,660
Did you bring a magnet?
74
00:04:42,737 --> 00:04:43,829
Sure.
75
00:04:43,905 --> 00:04:47,864
I happen to have
my magic wand with me here.
76
00:04:47,942 --> 00:04:51,605
It might spin for me today,
I don't know for sure, but...
77
00:04:55,983 --> 00:04:57,177
Oh, wow.
78
00:04:58,452 --> 00:04:59,919
That's interesting.
79
00:05:02,990 --> 00:05:03,854
Let me see if I can...
80
00:05:03,925 --> 00:05:05,722
Does anybody...
does it work with anybody,
81
00:05:05,793 --> 00:05:07,590
or does it work...
does it only work with you?
82
00:05:07,662 --> 00:05:11,098
Well, I guess I'm probably
better at it than most.
83
00:05:14,669 --> 00:05:15,693
Wow.
84
00:05:16,804 --> 00:05:19,671
That is sure strange.
85
00:05:21,709 --> 00:05:25,873
And is this the only space
where it makes it spin?
86
00:05:25,947 --> 00:05:27,039
No, it...
87
00:05:27,114 --> 00:05:28,775
The other circle...
88
00:05:28,850 --> 00:05:30,010
It does it over here as well?
89
00:05:30,084 --> 00:05:33,144
Will send it counter... will send
it clockwise, yeah. Oh, wow, yep.
90
00:05:33,221 --> 00:05:35,553
There's something else
you might find interesting.
91
00:05:35,623 --> 00:05:39,059
You mess with something long enough,
you pretty much learn everything about it.
92
00:05:39,126 --> 00:05:43,825
And so I was messing with it one day
and I got it to where it would...
93
00:05:43,898 --> 00:05:46,924
It kind of draws
to my other hand, you know, it's...
94
00:05:47,001 --> 00:05:50,164
I try to keep this hand
as still as I can and it's...
95
00:05:50,238 --> 00:05:55,175
So it's almost reacting
with your body energy.
96
00:05:55,243 --> 00:05:57,609
Yeah.
That is wild.
97
00:05:57,678 --> 00:06:01,114
Well, would you be opposed
to show me where you found the rock?
98
00:06:01,182 --> 00:06:03,116
Oh, no. I'm up for that, big time.
Yeah, really?
99
00:06:03,184 --> 00:06:04,776
Oh, yeah. Yeah, let's go.
All right.
100
00:06:04,852 --> 00:06:06,479
Check, please.
101
00:06:08,823 --> 00:06:10,586
(Giorgio)
So, what do you do for a living?
102
00:06:10,658 --> 00:06:13,218
Well, I've been in the paint
and body business, you know,
103
00:06:13,494 --> 00:06:14,859
for basically all my life.
104
00:06:14,929 --> 00:06:17,898
And I've owned my own shops.
Oh, that's cool. Excellent.
105
00:06:17,965 --> 00:06:20,832
All right, now you're going
to need to take a right up here.
106
00:06:20,902 --> 00:06:24,201
And then when you come around,
you'll kind of see the terminal up there.
107
00:06:28,809 --> 00:06:31,801
There's a lot of history
here at this airbase.
108
00:06:31,879 --> 00:06:35,713
In the '40s it was a SAC base,
Strategic Air Command.
109
00:06:35,783 --> 00:06:40,186
This is the place that they brought
the debris from the '47 crash.
110
00:06:40,254 --> 00:06:41,744
This is the place?
This is it.
111
00:06:41,822 --> 00:06:44,757
So, Hangar 84
must be around here.
112
00:06:44,825 --> 00:06:46,759
Off over here somewhere, I believe.
113
00:06:46,827 --> 00:06:50,923
(Giorgio) Hangar 84 is where the
military allegedly took the debris
114
00:06:50,998 --> 00:06:54,593
and alien bodies
after the crash in 1947
115
00:06:54,669 --> 00:06:57,763
before eventually moving them
to another location.
116
00:06:57,838 --> 00:07:00,864
It's kind of surreal to be
walking on the same tarmac.
117
00:07:00,942 --> 00:07:03,740
Here's our pilot.
118
00:07:03,811 --> 00:07:05,176
How you doing?
119
00:07:05,246 --> 00:07:06,941
Are we ready to go?
We're ready to go.
120
00:07:07,014 --> 00:07:08,811
Are you guys ready?
All right. Absolutely.
121
00:07:08,883 --> 00:07:10,248
Let's do it.
Okay, let's get moving.
122
00:07:10,318 --> 00:07:11,546
Sweet.
123
00:07:14,121 --> 00:07:16,112
(Giorgio)
Firing up the engines.
124
00:07:16,190 --> 00:07:17,657
Let the adventure begin.
125
00:07:20,761 --> 00:07:21,819
(Robert)
Yee-haw.
126
00:07:27,234 --> 00:07:33,173
Now, where is the crash site
in relation to where you found the rock?
127
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,676
It's 11 miles,
what we call the skip site.
128
00:07:36,744 --> 00:07:39,008
And what do you mean
by the "skip site"?
129
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,948
It's where the saucer
made contact with the ground first,
130
00:07:43,017 --> 00:07:45,781
left a massive debris field.
131
00:07:45,853 --> 00:07:48,981
And then proceeded back
towards the mountains
132
00:07:49,056 --> 00:07:50,990
to where it finally came to rest.
133
00:07:51,726 --> 00:07:55,822
Why do people believe
that that is the spot?
134
00:07:55,896 --> 00:07:58,922
Jim Ragsdale and his girlfriend
were up here camped.
135
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,834
They actually saw the craft come in
and were the first ones on the scene.
136
00:08:02,903 --> 00:08:04,837
That's why they call it
the Ragsdale site.
137
00:08:04,905 --> 00:08:07,965
They supposedly
saw the bodies and everything.
138
00:08:08,627 --> 00:08:10,925
There's theispott. Ere.
139
00:08:10,996 --> 00:08:12,759
This is it, right here?
Yeah.
140
00:08:16,368 --> 00:08:17,767
Wow.
141
00:09:58,541 --> 00:10:01,510
So, do you think there's
a connection between the crash
142
00:10:01,578 --> 00:10:05,241
and finding this rock right here?
143
00:10:05,315 --> 00:10:06,680
I think it's possible.
144
00:10:08,051 --> 00:10:12,715
You know, the skip site
is this direction.
145
00:10:12,989 --> 00:10:16,982
It was a massive debris field
from, you know, all accounts,
146
00:10:17,060 --> 00:10:19,221
that was left behind.
147
00:10:19,295 --> 00:10:23,527
And so if it was
moving that fast, you know,
148
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,195
to skip off the ground
like a rock on the water,
149
00:10:27,270 --> 00:10:31,138
why couldn't that have been
thrown this far, you know?
150
00:10:31,207 --> 00:10:34,199
You know, the government
did a pretty thorough sweep
151
00:10:34,277 --> 00:10:37,508
of this country when that happened.
152
00:10:37,580 --> 00:10:40,674
And maybe
they missed something, I don't know.
153
00:10:40,750 --> 00:10:43,275
But I've thought it was special
from the very first moment
154
00:10:43,353 --> 00:10:44,342
it hit my hand.
155
00:10:44,421 --> 00:10:48,221
The military allegedly
spent months recovering debris,
156
00:10:48,291 --> 00:10:51,556
but the sand out here
is constantly shifting,
157
00:10:51,628 --> 00:10:55,029
so it's very easy to see how
they could have missed something
158
00:10:55,098 --> 00:10:57,589
as small as the Roswell Rock.
159
00:10:58,067 --> 00:11:00,558
Now what I want to do, too,
is I want to see if we can find
160
00:11:00,637 --> 00:11:04,437
maybe some similar rocks
around here so we can, you know,
161
00:11:04,507 --> 00:11:05,531
draw a comparison.
162
00:11:05,608 --> 00:11:07,303
Great, I'm always up
for hunting a rock.
163
00:11:07,377 --> 00:11:08,571
All right.
164
00:11:09,245 --> 00:11:10,803
There's some rocks right over there.
165
00:11:15,485 --> 00:11:22,721
All I see is some rocks that
are the same color like the sand,
166
00:11:22,792 --> 00:11:27,320
but it's definitely not the same,
that's for sure.
167
00:11:27,397 --> 00:11:31,265
Because you compare that
and, I mean, it's not even,
168
00:11:31,334 --> 00:11:33,234
it's not even the same category.
169
00:11:33,303 --> 00:11:36,363
Not a whole lot out here
resembles it in any way.
170
00:11:37,340 --> 00:11:40,173
(Giorgio)
So I want to put these in my bag.
171
00:11:40,243 --> 00:11:42,143
And so, you know,
over the next couple of days
172
00:11:42,212 --> 00:11:45,181
I want to definitely mull over
what happened today,
173
00:11:45,248 --> 00:11:47,648
and I'm going to go ahead
and do some investigations
174
00:11:47,717 --> 00:11:50,811
on my own, so let's
head back to the chopper.
175
00:11:51,087 --> 00:11:52,111
Let's do it.
176
00:11:54,657 --> 00:11:59,287
So I'm on my way to Albuquerque
to see Linda Moulton Howe,
177
00:11:59,362 --> 00:12:03,560
an investigative journalist
who has done extensive research
178
00:12:03,633 --> 00:12:07,194
not only on the original
Roswell incident,
179
00:12:07,270 --> 00:12:09,602
but also on the Roswell Rock.
180
00:12:13,409 --> 00:12:19,211
I have read on Earthfiles
that there is a clear connection
181
00:12:19,282 --> 00:12:22,683
between a crop circle
that was found in 1996
182
00:12:22,752 --> 00:12:25,721
in England and also the Roswell Rock.
183
00:12:25,788 --> 00:12:27,847
Pretty much
the two designs are identical.
184
00:12:28,124 --> 00:12:29,751
What can you tell me about that?
185
00:12:29,826 --> 00:12:33,785
At first I thought,
"Could it really be identical?"
186
00:12:33,863 --> 00:12:37,500
And we can do a comparison here
187
00:12:38,074 --> 00:12:42,841
Now, on the left is the rock,
the actual rock and its pattern.
188
00:12:42,912 --> 00:12:45,881
And on the right
is the crop formation in wheat,
189
00:12:45,948 --> 00:12:48,041
120 feet long.
190
00:12:48,117 --> 00:12:53,419
And when you take each item,
you can measure it across,
191
00:12:53,689 --> 00:12:55,714
they're exactly identical.
192
00:12:55,792 --> 00:12:57,123
(Giorgio)
Wow.
193
00:12:57,660 --> 00:13:01,323
So you clearly think that
the crop circle wasn't man made.
194
00:13:01,731 --> 00:13:05,064
In this one particular case,
they had a pilot and a passenger
195
00:13:05,101 --> 00:13:08,127
who said that they had
flown over the field
196
00:13:08,204 --> 00:13:11,173
and there was nothing there,
and they flew back over,
197
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,935
couldn't have been
more than a half hour,
198
00:13:13,009 --> 00:13:14,340
and here was this pattern.
199
00:13:15,778 --> 00:13:18,747
There were four layers thick
where the crop was layered
200
00:13:18,815 --> 00:13:21,181
as one direction would
flow and meet another
201
00:13:21,250 --> 00:13:23,241
and another direction
would come over.
202
00:13:23,319 --> 00:13:28,689
And there's no board, string,
foot, nothing can do that.
203
00:13:28,758 --> 00:13:33,889
It was one of the most perfect,
clean lays that anyone had ever seen,
204
00:13:33,963 --> 00:13:35,430
meaning perfection.
205
00:13:36,732 --> 00:13:38,165
What's the significance of this?
206
00:13:38,234 --> 00:13:40,725
I mean, it's kind of mind blowing.
207
00:13:40,803 --> 00:13:44,466
Basically, we're dealing
with lunar astronomy.
208
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:49,109
The moon and the sun
and the tracking of the symbols,
209
00:13:49,178 --> 00:13:54,775
this is reflecting past,
present, and future.
210
00:13:54,851 --> 00:14:02,383
This is relating to space and time,
that moving through the universe
211
00:14:02,458 --> 00:14:08,158
has got to be on a point-to-point
bending space-time
212
00:14:08,231 --> 00:14:10,893
that quantum physicists
have talked about.
213
00:14:10,967 --> 00:14:15,199
I really do think
something with a capital "S"
214
00:14:15,271 --> 00:14:18,729
is trying to teach us humans.
215
00:14:19,375 --> 00:14:22,902
Now the fact that we have
equal but opposite images
216
00:14:22,979 --> 00:14:26,039
of what appears to be the sun
and the moon brings to mind
217
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:30,108
a concept from the ancient Hindu texts
known as the Vedas,
218
00:14:30,186 --> 00:14:33,121
and that is, "As above, so below."
219
00:14:33,189 --> 00:14:36,090
In other words, what happens
here on Earth is connected
220
00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:40,255
directly to what happens
up there in the sky.
221
00:14:40,329 --> 00:14:45,232
The very fact that
Robert Ridge's rock would have
222
00:14:45,301 --> 00:14:49,237
these magnetic properties,
that it would spin clockwise
223
00:14:49,305 --> 00:14:53,264
and counterclockwise,
was it constructed that way
224
00:14:53,342 --> 00:14:54,934
by some intelligence?
225
00:14:55,011 --> 00:14:56,911
Was it a fluke of nature?
226
00:14:56,979 --> 00:15:01,507
And, Giorgio, no one has proved
this rock to be a hoax.
227
00:15:01,784 --> 00:15:04,981
Linda, I thank you
very much for this conversation.
228
00:15:05,054 --> 00:15:07,818
The information that I've learned
this afternoon has been
229
00:15:07,890 --> 00:15:09,255
absolutely invaluable.
230
00:15:09,325 --> 00:15:11,020
Thanks very much.
Thank you.
231
00:15:16,499 --> 00:15:22,028
Honestly, I really thought
that this rock might be some fake,
232
00:15:22,104 --> 00:15:26,302
but after seeing it in person
and after talking to Linda,
233
00:15:26,375 --> 00:15:29,071
I'm beginning to think
that what we have here
234
00:15:29,145 --> 00:15:31,579
could be something
quite extraordinary.
235
00:15:31,847 --> 00:15:35,112
So now it's time to put
the Roswell Rock
236
00:15:35,184 --> 00:15:38,176
through some serious scientific tests.
237
00:15:45,027 --> 00:15:48,258
One of the biggest questions
concerning the Roswell Rock
238
00:15:48,331 --> 00:15:52,392
is whether or not
the design on it is man-made.
239
00:15:52,468 --> 00:15:56,529
And those who claim it is
say that because the design
240
00:15:56,606 --> 00:16:00,406
rises out of the rock,
the most likely way
241
00:16:00,476 --> 00:16:04,572
that it would have been made
is not with laser cutting or machining,
242
00:16:04,847 --> 00:16:07,611
but with a process
known as sandblasting,
243
00:16:07,883 --> 00:16:11,910
which can be used to cut away
the rock around the design.
244
00:16:11,988 --> 00:16:14,115
All right, let's go.
Let's check this out.
245
00:16:14,190 --> 00:16:16,351
So Robert and I decided
to meet with a stonecutter
246
00:16:16,425 --> 00:16:17,619
to put this theory to the test.
247
00:16:20,196 --> 00:16:21,527
Hey, guys.
David, how you doing?
248
00:16:21,597 --> 00:16:23,121
I'm Giorgio, pleasure to meet you.
249
00:16:23,199 --> 00:16:24,894
I'm David. Glad to meet you.
How are you?
250
00:16:24,967 --> 00:16:26,958
Robert Ridge, David.
All right. Glad to meet you.
251
00:16:27,036 --> 00:16:28,867
So, what do you have
set up for us here today?
252
00:16:28,938 --> 00:16:31,930
Well, I'm trying to see
if I can make a rock
253
00:16:32,008 --> 00:16:34,238
that looks like our Roswell Rock.
254
00:16:35,077 --> 00:16:38,069
So you're going to try
to replicate this item here?
255
00:16:38,147 --> 00:16:39,045
Exactly.
256
00:16:39,115 --> 00:16:41,276
Going to try to show you all
how we do this.
257
00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:44,080
What processes will you be using?
258
00:16:44,153 --> 00:16:47,919
We'll be using stencils,
cutting, and sandblasting.
259
00:16:48,024 --> 00:16:49,491
Okay.
That's awesome.
260
00:16:49,558 --> 00:16:51,150
I got a head start.
261
00:16:51,227 --> 00:16:53,218
I copied the design, traced it,
262
00:16:53,296 --> 00:16:56,322
put it on a computer, ran it
through our computer system,
263
00:16:56,399 --> 00:16:59,926
and cut the design,
cut it in a few different sizes
264
00:17:00,002 --> 00:17:05,235
and of course all I had to go
was by this picture, so...
265
00:17:05,308 --> 00:17:07,367
You can get a pretty good
tracing off of that.
266
00:17:07,443 --> 00:17:09,274
Robert actually
brought the Roswell Rock,
267
00:17:09,345 --> 00:17:11,313
so if you want to give...
Yeah.
268
00:17:11,380 --> 00:17:13,211
The rock...
If that would help you out some.
269
00:17:13,282 --> 00:17:14,510
Check it out.
270
00:17:14,583 --> 00:17:17,416
What are your impressions right now?
271
00:17:17,586 --> 00:17:19,144
(Robert)
Do you feel anything?
272
00:17:19,255 --> 00:17:20,449
[Laughs]
273
00:17:23,025 --> 00:17:24,219
No, I don't.
274
00:17:24,293 --> 00:17:25,954
I don't blame you.
275
00:17:26,028 --> 00:17:28,189
What are your thoughts?
276
00:17:36,339 --> 00:17:37,533
It's kind of interesting.
277
00:17:37,606 --> 00:17:41,269
It's got some markings
right there around that edge,
278
00:17:41,344 --> 00:17:42,709
that are a little deeper.
279
00:17:42,978 --> 00:17:46,505
It's a 90-degree there
and then it bevels around
280
00:17:46,582 --> 00:17:51,952
on this side, it's got
this cup in the bottom here.
281
00:17:52,021 --> 00:17:53,283
Very interesting.
282
00:17:53,356 --> 00:17:55,017
Thank you.
283
00:17:55,091 --> 00:17:56,956
Which one of you guys
are going to volunteer
284
00:17:57,026 --> 00:17:59,187
to put that hood on
and sandblast this?
285
00:18:01,964 --> 00:18:04,524
Every one of those cuts
and every one of those
286
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,431
are achievable by man.
287
00:18:06,502 --> 00:18:08,026
(Robert)
Give it your best shot.
288
00:18:08,371 --> 00:18:10,362
♪
289
00:18:54,116 --> 00:18:55,140
All right.
290
00:18:55,551 --> 00:18:57,109
Peel that stencil off.
291
00:18:57,386 --> 00:18:59,684
First one finished gets a prize.
292
00:18:59,755 --> 00:19:02,349
Oh, I was done five minutes ago, yes.
293
00:19:02,425 --> 00:19:03,119
[Laughs]
294
00:19:03,192 --> 00:19:04,682
Mine's 10 times bigger.
295
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:09,629
Now, I think that this here,
as a piece of art
296
00:19:09,698 --> 00:19:13,099
that you've just created,
it looks awesome,
297
00:19:13,169 --> 00:19:18,664
but it does not match
the Roswell Rock.
298
00:19:18,741 --> 00:19:20,709
Well, of course.
It's a different rock.
299
00:19:20,776 --> 00:19:24,041
These are perfect circles here
and perfect cuts.
300
00:19:24,113 --> 00:19:29,517
Okay, I could take my little tool
and I could make perfect circles.
301
00:19:29,585 --> 00:19:33,487
If you had to, you could take
and knock off those little edges.
302
00:19:35,458 --> 00:19:38,427
It's simply not the same.
303
00:19:38,494 --> 00:19:41,622
I mean, this is
an incredible creation.
304
00:19:41,697 --> 00:19:47,294
Yet this and that to me
right now is different.
305
00:19:47,369 --> 00:19:50,202
And I know you had
a half an hour to do this.
306
00:19:50,306 --> 00:19:52,103
Thank you.
You know, I mean...
307
00:19:52,174 --> 00:19:54,404
Make sure for my reputation
you say that,
308
00:19:54,477 --> 00:19:55,603
that I only had a half an hour.
309
00:19:55,678 --> 00:19:56,440
Of course.
310
00:19:56,512 --> 00:19:59,675
This was supposed to be
the ultimate proof
311
00:19:59,748 --> 00:20:03,445
that this is a sandblasted piece.
312
00:20:03,519 --> 00:20:06,545
I got to tell you, Robert,
I am more intrigued now
313
00:20:06,622 --> 00:20:09,318
than I was in the previous days.
314
00:20:10,493 --> 00:20:12,222
All right, David.
Thank you very much
315
00:20:12,294 --> 00:20:13,522
for opening up your shop for us.
316
00:20:13,596 --> 00:20:14,119
Anytime.
317
00:20:14,196 --> 00:20:16,721
All right, take care, see you.
Thank you, sir.
318
00:20:18,801 --> 00:20:21,395
(Giorgio) The sandblasted
replicas appear very different
319
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:24,166
to the naked eye,
but Robert and I are going
320
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,232
to take an even closer look
under a microscope.
321
00:20:28,244 --> 00:20:31,270
We're meeting with geoarchaeologist
Dr. Bill Doleman,
322
00:20:31,347 --> 00:20:34,714
a man who has been
studying rocks for over 30 years
323
00:20:34,783 --> 00:20:39,243
in order to get an expert opinion
on just what type of rock
324
00:20:39,321 --> 00:20:42,256
the Roswell Rock might be.
325
00:20:44,793 --> 00:20:46,124
You must be Giorgio.
326
00:20:46,195 --> 00:20:48,220
I am.
This is Dr. Bill Doleman.
327
00:20:48,297 --> 00:20:50,162
Giorgio. Dr. Doleman,
pleasure to meet you.
328
00:20:50,232 --> 00:20:52,325
Pleasure to meet you, sir.
And Robert. Hi, Bill.
329
00:20:52,401 --> 00:20:54,699
Pleasure to see you again.
You, too.
330
00:20:54,770 --> 00:20:57,500
(Giorgio) We're here to
look at the Roswell Rock.
331
00:20:57,573 --> 00:21:00,269
Now, I know you've seen
this rock before.
332
00:21:00,342 --> 00:21:02,606
But we're here to draw
some comparisons
333
00:21:02,678 --> 00:21:05,613
with some other rocks
that we found in the area.
334
00:21:05,681 --> 00:21:10,744
And also a sandblasted piece
that we had done earlier.
335
00:21:10,819 --> 00:21:13,549
So here's the rock, and then
we're going to look at this
336
00:21:13,622 --> 00:21:15,180
under the microscope today, right?
337
00:21:15,257 --> 00:21:16,884
We're going to look at it
under a microscope,
338
00:21:17,159 --> 00:21:18,854
and we're going to look
at your specimens,
339
00:21:18,928 --> 00:21:22,625
and we're going to talk about
whether that rock could have
340
00:21:22,698 --> 00:21:24,563
come from there naturally or not.
341
00:21:24,633 --> 00:21:27,193
I can't wait to see this
under high magnification.
342
00:21:27,269 --> 00:21:27,860
Me neither.
343
00:21:27,937 --> 00:21:28,801
Good.
344
00:21:29,305 --> 00:21:31,899
Now, you found this where?
345
00:21:32,174 --> 00:21:33,937
Well, at the base
of the Capitan Mountains.
346
00:21:34,209 --> 00:21:34,607
Okay.
347
00:21:34,677 --> 00:21:36,668
Let's take a look
at the geology map here.
348
00:21:37,446 --> 00:21:39,641
So that would be...
From Roswell...
349
00:21:39,715 --> 00:21:44,209
it's... Here's Roswell, and
here's the Capitan Mountains
350
00:21:44,286 --> 00:21:47,881
right here, so we're smack
in the middle of a whole bunch of blue.
351
00:21:47,957 --> 00:21:50,926
The blue is limestone.
352
00:21:51,193 --> 00:21:55,926
Now, this rock doesn't look
like limestone to me,
353
00:21:56,198 --> 00:22:01,226
so, right off the bat, it seems
kind of unusual and out of place.
354
00:22:01,303 --> 00:22:03,669
Now, did you get
any rocks from the area?
355
00:22:03,739 --> 00:22:05,297
I did, absolutely.
356
00:22:05,374 --> 00:22:06,739
We collected some right here.
357
00:22:06,809 --> 00:22:08,777
(Bill)
You guys are real scientists.
358
00:22:08,844 --> 00:22:10,937
Well, we do what
we can do, you know?
359
00:22:11,747 --> 00:22:15,205
(Bill) Play the sorting
game here pretty quickly.
360
00:22:17,286 --> 00:22:19,777
Do some high-powered
scientific tests.
361
00:22:21,857 --> 00:22:23,825
Now, this is limestone.
362
00:22:23,892 --> 00:22:26,918
You see, I can easily cut it
with the point of a knife.
363
00:22:26,996 --> 00:22:28,793
(Giorgio)
You're cutting into this why?
364
00:22:28,864 --> 00:22:30,456
So you can determine the hardness?
365
00:22:30,532 --> 00:22:31,760
To test the hardness, exactly.
366
00:22:31,834 --> 00:22:34,803
Limestone generally can be
scratched with the point of a knife.
367
00:22:34,870 --> 00:22:37,532
What I find striking... The question
is, where did that come from?
368
00:22:37,606 --> 00:22:38,470
Exactly.
369
00:22:38,540 --> 00:22:43,500
Because this totally falls out of line
with everything that we have here.
370
00:22:43,579 --> 00:22:44,671
So, why do you think that is?
371
00:22:44,747 --> 00:22:48,376
Or what is your hunch
on what this might actually be?
372
00:22:48,450 --> 00:22:52,648
Basically it's what geologists
would call a pebble.
373
00:22:52,721 --> 00:22:57,317
It's rounded, and that kind of rounding
is very typical of stones
374
00:22:57,393 --> 00:22:59,293
that you find in a stream.
375
00:22:59,395 --> 00:23:04,765
So, anyway, what's interesting to me
is that this is a uniform color all over
376
00:23:04,833 --> 00:23:06,300
and that's very unusual.
377
00:23:06,368 --> 00:23:07,767
As you can see,
any one of these rocks
378
00:23:07,836 --> 00:23:10,464
has got different colors
in different parts.
379
00:23:10,539 --> 00:23:13,007
Do you think that this might
have potentially been painted?
380
00:23:13,275 --> 00:23:14,674
There's some coat of paint on there?
381
00:23:14,743 --> 00:23:19,737
I'll tell you what I would like to do.
In fact, I've got the device right here.
382
00:23:19,815 --> 00:23:24,411
I often use this to just grind down...
383
00:23:24,486 --> 00:23:25,612
[whirring]
384
00:23:25,688 --> 00:23:29,954
And polish the surface of the rock
to give myself a clean
385
00:23:29,992 --> 00:23:32,460
polished surface,
to go through the patina
386
00:23:32,528 --> 00:23:36,430
or whatever is on there
to really look at the rock's structure,
387
00:23:36,498 --> 00:23:37,624
using a microscope.
388
00:23:37,700 --> 00:23:39,395
Robert, what do you think?
389
00:23:39,468 --> 00:23:40,332
Oh, hell no.
390
00:23:40,402 --> 00:23:41,334
Uh-uh. No.
391
00:23:41,403 --> 00:23:43,564
That ain't going to work.
392
00:23:43,639 --> 00:23:46,767
Well, I didn't think so.
And, actually...
393
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:50,300
So for all intents and purposes,
this is a foreign object
394
00:23:50,345 --> 00:23:51,812
to this particular region.
395
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,677
(Bill)
Even not looking at the design, yes.
396
00:23:53,749 --> 00:23:57,378
It looks like it's quite probably foreign.
We haven't even talked about the design yet.
397
00:23:57,453 --> 00:23:58,681
It keeps looking at me.
398
00:23:58,754 --> 00:24:01,484
It's kind of hard to miss when
you look at it, yes. That aside.
399
00:24:01,557 --> 00:24:05,084
Earlier, we went out there
to meet with a sandblaster
400
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:09,057
and he was 100 percent convinced
that this is a sandblasted piece.
401
00:24:09,331 --> 00:24:10,662
A fabrication.
402
00:24:10,733 --> 00:24:11,392
Yes.
403
00:24:11,467 --> 00:24:16,996
And so what he did was
he created these replicas right here.
404
00:24:17,072 --> 00:24:20,473
And we brought them to you
for comparison.
405
00:24:20,542 --> 00:24:22,908
I'm guessing that these
are both some kind of
406
00:24:22,978 --> 00:24:24,878
clastic sedimentary rock.
407
00:24:30,953 --> 00:24:34,855
I'm going to get it set up
and you guys can take a look here.
408
00:24:34,923 --> 00:24:36,788
All right,
why don't you guys take a look?
409
00:24:36,859 --> 00:24:37,826
See what you see.
410
00:24:47,703 --> 00:24:48,727
(Giorgio)
Mm-hmm.
411
00:24:48,804 --> 00:24:51,637
Yeah, you can definitely see
a difference between the two surfaces.
412
00:24:51,707 --> 00:24:53,641
(Bill)
The granular structure of the rock.
413
00:24:53,709 --> 00:24:55,574
Now let's put
the Roswell Rock under this
414
00:24:55,644 --> 00:25:00,138
because that's what we came here for,
to look at this under magnification.
415
00:25:08,090 --> 00:25:11,059
Oh, wow.
416
00:25:11,126 --> 00:25:13,424
This is wild.
417
00:25:13,495 --> 00:25:17,829
The edges are so clean.
418
00:25:17,900 --> 00:25:24,169
I mean, it's as if this was carved
with some type of a very fine knife.
419
00:25:24,439 --> 00:25:25,701
Wow.
420
00:25:27,543 --> 00:25:28,840
It's crazy, huh?
421
00:25:30,445 --> 00:25:31,742
I'll say.
422
00:25:33,949 --> 00:25:35,883
I mean, this is not even
in the same ballpark
423
00:25:35,951 --> 00:25:39,443
as the sandblasted piece is.
424
00:25:39,555 --> 00:25:43,719
I mean, here is the crazy thing,
I've seen edges like this
425
00:25:43,792 --> 00:25:47,751
before at Puma Punku.
426
00:25:47,830 --> 00:25:51,527
Puma Punku is a site in Bolivia
that many scholars believe
427
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,898
is more than 10,000 years old.
428
00:25:53,969 --> 00:25:57,166
There you can find
dozens of giant granite rocks
429
00:25:57,439 --> 00:25:59,930
that appear to be cut
with extraordinary precision.
430
00:26:00,008 --> 00:26:03,136
Now, no one has ever been able
to explain how supposedly
431
00:26:03,212 --> 00:26:06,113
primitive people would have
accomplished this using copper
432
00:26:06,181 --> 00:26:07,773
and chicken bones.
433
00:26:08,483 --> 00:26:10,644
But according
to the local native legends,
434
00:26:10,719 --> 00:26:14,746
they say that the stones
weren't carved by humans at all,
435
00:26:14,823 --> 00:26:16,984
but by the gods.
436
00:26:17,059 --> 00:26:20,187
Looking at the Roswell Rock
under magnification,
437
00:26:20,462 --> 00:26:25,092
I'm beginning to think it's possible
that this is not a carving made
438
00:26:25,167 --> 00:26:29,536
by some science fiction fan,
but it appears to be the result
439
00:26:29,605 --> 00:26:33,473
of some type of advanced technology,
whatever it may have been.
440
00:26:33,542 --> 00:26:36,170
Now, could it be man-made?
441
00:26:36,245 --> 00:26:39,009
I still, of course,
cannot rule that out.
442
00:26:39,882 --> 00:26:42,112
(Bill) To my mind, I'm seeing,
it almost looks as if that
443
00:26:42,184 --> 00:26:44,778
was clay that got carved
with a very fine instrument.
444
00:26:44,853 --> 00:26:46,753
Yeah, that's, that's...
445
00:26:46,822 --> 00:26:49,120
(Giorgio)
I mean, it's extraordinary.
446
00:26:49,191 --> 00:26:54,026
As a scientist, what would
you recommend for our next tests?
447
00:26:54,096 --> 00:26:56,530
Well, I think we need
to look inside the rock
448
00:26:56,598 --> 00:26:59,032
and we need to evaluate two things,
449
00:26:59,101 --> 00:27:01,695
one, it's got
a magnetic field apparently,
450
00:27:01,770 --> 00:27:03,738
we'd like to know more
about the origins of it.
451
00:27:03,805 --> 00:27:07,536
Two, we're not really sure
whether it's multiple pieces,
452
00:27:07,609 --> 00:27:09,839
whether it has a magnet inside it.
453
00:27:09,912 --> 00:27:12,244
So, I got a friend
who's an electrical engineer
454
00:27:12,514 --> 00:27:16,041
and he has access to some
very high-grade testing equipment
455
00:27:16,118 --> 00:27:18,109
for measuring magnetic fields.
456
00:27:18,186 --> 00:27:22,589
Second of all, I've got a friend
who has a CT scanner,
457
00:27:22,658 --> 00:27:25,752
and that's basically
a three-dimensional X-ray of the rock.
458
00:27:25,827 --> 00:27:29,763
And so we'll learn all sorts of things
about the inside of that rock.
459
00:27:29,831 --> 00:27:30,855
We're not done yet.
460
00:27:30,933 --> 00:27:36,963
No, the investigation has just begun
because I am definitely intrigued.
461
00:27:37,039 --> 00:27:40,805
So, thanks again. Appreciate it. Take care.
Have a safe trip. I'll see you guys soon.
462
00:27:40,876 --> 00:27:41,808
All right, bye bye.
463
00:27:47,282 --> 00:27:51,116
(Giorgio) The next step in solving
the mystery of the Roswell Rock
464
00:27:51,186 --> 00:27:55,782
is to find out why it spins
when brought in contact with a magnet.
465
00:27:56,191 --> 00:27:58,625
Dr. Doleman
has arranged for a meeting
466
00:27:58,694 --> 00:28:02,130
with an electrical engineer,
Nathan Menhorn.
467
00:28:02,197 --> 00:28:06,327
And he has agreed
to bring a whole bunch
468
00:28:06,601 --> 00:28:10,594
of sophisticated instruments
from his lab to his garage
469
00:28:10,672 --> 00:28:15,871
where we can bring the rock
and perform magnetic field tests.
470
00:28:17,245 --> 00:28:20,305
So, Nathan, Robert showed me
that with a simple magnet
471
00:28:20,582 --> 00:28:22,982
he was able to make
the Roswell Rock spin.
472
00:28:23,051 --> 00:28:25,281
So there are some type
of magnetic properties,
473
00:28:25,354 --> 00:28:28,790
but we want to figure out
if we can use some more
474
00:28:28,857 --> 00:28:31,621
sophisticated instruments
to determine whether or not
475
00:28:31,693 --> 00:28:34,321
there's really something interesting
about this particular rock
476
00:28:34,596 --> 00:28:35,620
that we have here.
477
00:28:35,731 --> 00:28:38,598
It'd be kind of interesting
to know, "A," is there really
478
00:28:38,667 --> 00:28:39,929
a magnetic field there?
479
00:28:40,002 --> 00:28:41,902
"B," what is its strength?
480
00:28:41,970 --> 00:28:45,838
And "C," what's its orientation
inside the rock?
481
00:28:45,907 --> 00:28:48,842
What tests do we have lined up today?
482
00:28:48,910 --> 00:28:51,003
Okay, so the first test
that I'd like to do
483
00:28:51,079 --> 00:28:54,344
is measure
the field strength of the rock.
484
00:28:54,616 --> 00:28:56,345
Cool. Let's get started.
All right.
485
00:28:56,618 --> 00:28:59,246
Show us the goods.
Okay.
486
00:28:59,321 --> 00:29:05,021
So, we want to calibrate
the magnetometer first
487
00:29:05,093 --> 00:29:09,052
to make sure we're getting
accurate readings.
488
00:29:09,131 --> 00:29:12,623
And what is this black thing right now?
489
00:29:12,701 --> 00:29:16,193
This just isolates the probe
from any magnetic field.
490
00:29:16,271 --> 00:29:17,203
Okay.
491
00:29:17,272 --> 00:29:19,035
(Nathan)
Now...
492
00:29:22,077 --> 00:29:26,309
So on the tip of the rock
we have about...
493
00:29:26,381 --> 00:29:30,647
(Robert) It's going up. (Nathan)
A half to 0.8 gauss about.
494
00:29:31,286 --> 00:29:33,254
.8
495
00:29:33,321 --> 00:29:34,754
On this end...
496
00:29:36,758 --> 00:29:39,955
close to zero there.
497
00:29:40,028 --> 00:29:41,928
Close to zero there.
498
00:29:41,997 --> 00:29:47,993
So the field is going to be
coming out of here,
499
00:29:48,070 --> 00:29:51,130
so this would be
the north pole of the magnet
500
00:29:51,206 --> 00:29:53,401
and this would be the south pole.
501
00:29:53,675 --> 00:29:57,406
So, with the north pole,
we're getting a positive reading
502
00:29:57,679 --> 00:30:00,147
because the magnetic field
is coming out
503
00:30:00,215 --> 00:30:04,083
and it's coming back around
and going into the south pole.
504
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,888
So let's probe around
a little bit more
505
00:30:06,955 --> 00:30:10,857
and see what else we can see.
506
00:30:11,827 --> 00:30:12,953
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa.
507
00:30:13,028 --> 00:30:15,826
(Bill) Yeah, look at that.
(Giorgio) 7.3.
508
00:30:15,897 --> 00:30:19,230
(Robert) 6.8. (Giorgio)
7.3 there for a second.
509
00:30:19,301 --> 00:30:22,361
We got an 8.1. Near a pole there, right?
It's getting higher.
510
00:30:22,437 --> 00:30:26,373
(Bill) This is getting weird. (Robert)
It's the symbol that does it.
511
00:30:26,475 --> 00:30:30,036
Whoa. Wow, we got an 11.
It's the thickest part of the rock.
512
00:30:30,112 --> 00:30:32,080
We got an 11 right over,
over the fracture.
513
00:30:32,147 --> 00:30:33,910
We got an 11.3.
514
00:30:33,982 --> 00:30:37,884
The edge of the design.
(Nathan) 15.
515
00:30:37,953 --> 00:30:39,284
(Giorgio)
That is pretty amazing.
516
00:30:39,754 --> 00:30:43,451
There are some rocks found in nature
that contain magnetite
517
00:30:43,725 --> 00:30:46,751
or other magnetic minerals
like a lodestone, for instance,
518
00:30:46,862 --> 00:30:50,958
which the ancient Olmecs in Mexico
actually used as a compass
519
00:30:51,032 --> 00:30:53,262
over 3,000 years ago.
520
00:30:53,335 --> 00:30:56,998
But I do find very curious that
the magnetism in the Roswell Rock
521
00:30:57,072 --> 00:31:00,007
seems to be concentrated in one area.
522
00:31:00,275 --> 00:31:04,268
If there is a magnet, let's say,
artificially embedded,
523
00:31:04,513 --> 00:31:09,280
then it would be right underneath
this area right here.
524
00:31:09,351 --> 00:31:10,511
That's correct.
525
00:31:10,785 --> 00:31:11,149
Mm-hmm.
526
00:31:11,219 --> 00:31:12,982
Is that something
that you could imagine
527
00:31:13,054 --> 00:31:14,783
that there might be a magnet inside?
528
00:31:14,856 --> 00:31:16,050
Yes, there could be.
529
00:31:16,124 --> 00:31:18,115
It's very, very, very possible.
530
00:31:18,860 --> 00:31:22,853
(Giorgio) After Nathan suggested
that there may actually be a magnet
531
00:31:22,931 --> 00:31:26,367
planted inside the rock,
I was more determined than ever
532
00:31:26,434 --> 00:31:30,928
to cut into it to verify
that it is in fact a solid rock
533
00:31:31,006 --> 00:31:35,204
and not some plaster cast
made from a mold or painted.
534
00:31:35,277 --> 00:31:39,179
And so, reluctantly,
actually, very reluctantly
535
00:31:39,214 --> 00:31:44,311
Robert agreed to let us use a grinder
on the backside of the rock.
536
00:31:45,053 --> 00:31:47,385
(Bill) We're going to find
something out about this rock.
537
00:31:47,455 --> 00:31:49,946
I think you have amazing courage
to let me do this,
538
00:31:50,025 --> 00:31:51,822
and I greatly appreciate it as well.
539
00:31:51,893 --> 00:31:54,418
But I want you to have one last chance
to say, "You know what?
540
00:31:54,496 --> 00:31:56,828
Maybe we shouldn't do this."
541
00:31:57,566 --> 00:31:59,261
Last chance.
542
00:32:01,403 --> 00:32:02,870
Let's do it.
543
00:32:02,938 --> 00:32:04,838
Let's do it. (Giorgio)
Let's do it.
544
00:32:04,906 --> 00:32:07,067
(Bill) You are the man, Robert.
(Giorgio) Wow.
545
00:32:07,142 --> 00:32:08,541
Here we go.
546
00:32:09,344 --> 00:32:11,574
(tool whirring)
547
00:32:22,824 --> 00:32:24,121
(Bill)
It's hard.
548
00:32:24,826 --> 00:32:27,954
I'm going to try one more shot
at grinding and collect the dust
549
00:32:28,029 --> 00:32:30,998
that comes off of there in case
we want to analyze it later.
550
00:32:31,967 --> 00:32:34,197
I think we need to...
551
00:32:34,269 --> 00:32:35,964
do more grinding.
552
00:32:36,371 --> 00:32:41,365
(Giorgio) Robert was genuinely affected
by us grinding into the Roswell Rock.
553
00:32:41,443 --> 00:32:44,901
I mean, the guy was tearing up
and it's hard to imagine him
554
00:32:44,980 --> 00:32:48,438
doing that if he knew
the rock was a fake.
555
00:32:48,516 --> 00:32:51,314
This rock isn't just a novelty to him,
556
00:32:51,386 --> 00:32:54,878
but it's almost
as if it's a part of him.
557
00:32:54,956 --> 00:33:01,122
The grain or the fissure continues inside the
rock. Yeah, I can see it going in there.
558
00:33:01,196 --> 00:33:02,185
Absolutely.
559
00:33:02,264 --> 00:33:04,289
So that kind of confirms...
Robert, come over here.
560
00:33:04,366 --> 00:33:06,425
(Bill) Yeah, Robert, you've
got to see this, buddy.
561
00:33:06,501 --> 00:33:08,492
You have to see this.
You're a bit emotional.
562
00:33:08,570 --> 00:33:10,265
It's okay.
563
00:33:10,338 --> 00:33:14,297
Right here, this is,
this is a natural rock.
564
00:33:14,376 --> 00:33:19,006
There's no question that no paint
has been applied to this.
565
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:23,210
It's okay.
(Bill) Yep, you can breathe now.
566
00:33:23,652 --> 00:33:27,418
If this thing was a plaster cast
made from a mold,
567
00:33:27,489 --> 00:33:30,652
we would have found out
about it right there.
568
00:33:30,925 --> 00:33:33,018
But whatever this thing
was made up of
569
00:33:33,094 --> 00:33:35,289
is certainly
much harder than plaster,
570
00:33:35,363 --> 00:33:38,594
and we now know that
it was definitely not painted.
571
00:33:38,667 --> 00:33:44,196
(Bill) This is a very, very
fine-grained quartzitic sandstone.
572
00:33:44,272 --> 00:33:46,172
Magnetite has what we're looking for.
573
00:33:46,241 --> 00:33:51,508
I am going to go under
the assumption that they...
574
00:33:55,483 --> 00:33:57,917
are the little black flecks
I'm seeing in here,
575
00:33:57,986 --> 00:34:00,318
although I expected to see a lot more.
576
00:34:00,555 --> 00:34:04,651
Magnetite could explain
the Roswell Rock's magnetic charge,
577
00:34:04,926 --> 00:34:08,123
but we found much less
than what Dr. Doleman
578
00:34:08,196 --> 00:34:09,595
was originally expecting.
579
00:34:09,664 --> 00:34:12,189
But why does it have
a magnetic charge at all?
580
00:34:12,267 --> 00:34:15,464
And one that's highly concentrated
in one specific part
581
00:34:15,537 --> 00:34:17,129
of the rock's design?
582
00:34:17,205 --> 00:34:19,139
That is still a mystery.
583
00:34:19,207 --> 00:34:23,166
(Bill) This is much finer grained
than I expected it to be.
584
00:34:23,244 --> 00:34:25,940
So at this point in time
I'm going to say even with this power,
585
00:34:26,014 --> 00:34:28,983
short of thin sectioning the rock,
it might be kind of hard
586
00:34:29,050 --> 00:34:32,451
to determine what it is
just because it is so fine grained.
587
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,251
And so I think that when we look
at the X rays of this thing,
588
00:34:36,324 --> 00:34:39,157
we're going to have another chance
to think about, well, is the inside
589
00:34:39,227 --> 00:34:42,025
different than what we can see,
having only shaved off
590
00:34:42,097 --> 00:34:43,462
about half a millimeter?
591
00:34:43,531 --> 00:34:44,589
Right. Wow.
592
00:34:44,666 --> 00:34:48,158
And thank you once again, Robert,
I mean, I'm just...
593
00:34:48,236 --> 00:34:52,332
Thank you. Good work. ...got all sorts of
pride in you for being willing to do this.
594
00:34:52,407 --> 00:34:55,308
Thank you. I think a lot of times,
you know, when push comes to shove,
595
00:34:55,377 --> 00:34:56,401
people back out.
596
00:34:56,478 --> 00:34:57,467
You didn't back out.
597
00:34:57,545 --> 00:34:59,979
You didn't, and that to me
was the telltale sign
598
00:35:00,048 --> 00:35:02,642
because I was holding back
and I was, like, you know...
599
00:35:02,717 --> 00:35:04,184
I don't know if this guy...
600
00:35:04,252 --> 00:35:08,985
If he takes that rock
and is like, "I'm out of here."
601
00:35:09,057 --> 00:35:09,989
You didn't do that.
602
00:35:10,058 --> 00:35:12,492
"Oh, I left the real one
at home, sorry." Yeah.
603
00:35:13,628 --> 00:35:15,493
Okay, so, here's what we know.
604
00:35:15,563 --> 00:35:17,394
We've established
that the Roswell Rock
605
00:35:17,432 --> 00:35:19,525
isn't some fan made rip-off.
606
00:35:19,601 --> 00:35:21,091
It's not plaster.
607
00:35:21,169 --> 00:35:22,534
It's not painted.
608
00:35:22,604 --> 00:35:25,664
It's a real stone
with a finely carved design
609
00:35:25,740 --> 00:35:28,106
that cannot be easily reproduced.
610
00:35:28,176 --> 00:35:31,407
It's also magnetic,
but we still don't know why exactly.
611
00:35:31,479 --> 00:35:36,246
So now we need to find out for sure
if there isn't some little magnet
612
00:35:36,317 --> 00:35:39,081
or something hidden
inside the rock that makes it
613
00:35:39,154 --> 00:35:41,054
move and spin the way it does.
614
00:35:42,290 --> 00:35:46,386
Well, this is a CAT scanner
and it takes a beam of X rays
615
00:35:46,461 --> 00:35:50,557
and passes them through a body
and detects them,
616
00:35:50,632 --> 00:35:53,157
puts it through a computer
and makes images
617
00:35:53,234 --> 00:35:54,531
that you can interpret.
618
00:35:54,602 --> 00:35:56,763
That's fantastic.
Do you have the rock?
619
00:35:57,038 --> 00:35:58,630
Well, yeah.
Let's do it.
620
00:35:59,274 --> 00:36:00,673
There it is.
621
00:36:01,576 --> 00:36:03,476
Whoa.
622
00:36:03,545 --> 00:36:06,275
I've never scanned anything
quite like that, no.
623
00:36:06,347 --> 00:36:09,214
So, this is a first? Let's go ahead.
Let's do it.
624
00:36:09,284 --> 00:36:11,252
Okay, boss, take her away.
625
00:36:11,319 --> 00:36:12,377
Fire it up.
Okay.
626
00:36:26,568 --> 00:36:30,129
We're trying to come right
across the design. Okay.
627
00:36:30,205 --> 00:36:33,197
You know, to show it
and get it all in one plane
628
00:36:33,274 --> 00:36:36,573
because the surface
of the rock is slightly rounded.
629
00:36:36,644 --> 00:36:38,441
Right, that's the design.
(Giorgio) Wow.
630
00:36:38,513 --> 00:36:41,141
We're essentially flying through it.
Right.
631
00:36:41,216 --> 00:36:41,739
Right.
632
00:36:41,816 --> 00:36:43,613
(Robert)
Looks like a star up there.
633
00:36:43,685 --> 00:36:46,381
(Giorgio) What's going on?
(Robert) That right there. See that?
634
00:36:46,454 --> 00:36:48,581
Look at that.
Wow, it is a star.
635
00:36:48,656 --> 00:36:51,318
It's a ganglion, actually.
That's the nerves of the rock.
636
00:36:51,392 --> 00:36:55,123
(Giorgio) What we see here on the
screen is the inside of the rock
637
00:36:55,196 --> 00:36:59,690
and it appears almost entirely white,
which means it's very dense throughout.
638
00:36:59,767 --> 00:37:03,794
We see a gray line indicating
less density where the fracture is,
639
00:37:03,872 --> 00:37:06,432
but overall this thing is pretty solid.
640
00:37:06,508 --> 00:37:11,104
Now, if this rock was carved by
some process other than sandblasting,
641
00:37:11,179 --> 00:37:12,874
we still can't figure out what it was.
642
00:37:13,147 --> 00:37:15,843
And who would choose
such a hard rock to cut into?
643
00:37:16,451 --> 00:37:19,682
We're looking right down
the long axis of the rock
644
00:37:19,754 --> 00:37:24,521
and there's the design,
and we're looking to see
645
00:37:24,592 --> 00:37:27,720
if there's any density behind that
as if it were
646
00:37:27,795 --> 00:37:30,559
appliquéd onto the surface.
647
00:37:30,632 --> 00:37:33,658
Which we don't see,
so now we're paging through,
648
00:37:33,735 --> 00:37:36,761
scrolling through it. It looks like the
design is exactly the same material
649
00:37:36,838 --> 00:37:38,430
as the rock itself.
It does, it does.
650
00:37:38,506 --> 00:37:41,839
(Bill) I don't see any discontinuity between
the areas. (James) I do not see any.
651
00:37:48,783 --> 00:37:52,913
So, I'd like to go back to,
like, at right angles,
652
00:37:53,187 --> 00:37:55,849
reason being
this question that we had.
653
00:37:55,924 --> 00:37:58,654
Is there anything inside the rock
that might be responsible
654
00:37:58,726 --> 00:38:01,627
for the magnetic properties
that it has?
655
00:38:02,764 --> 00:38:04,732
And nothing is present.
(James) And nothing...
656
00:38:04,799 --> 00:38:07,267
We don't see any density in there.
657
00:38:07,335 --> 00:38:10,327
But we don't see some clear cut
object inside that rock Exactly.
658
00:38:10,405 --> 00:38:12,839
To account for the magnetism
or anything else.
659
00:38:12,907 --> 00:38:15,535
The great thing is that
we now know that there
660
00:38:15,610 --> 00:38:19,512
is nothing inside the Roswell Rock
because some people have suggested
661
00:38:19,581 --> 00:38:22,448
that there's an inserted magnet inside
or something like this,
662
00:38:22,517 --> 00:38:24,712
but clearly
there is nothing inside of it.
663
00:38:24,786 --> 00:38:27,482
That is what I was curious about.
It doesn't look that way. Yeah.
664
00:38:27,555 --> 00:38:30,490
I think this is all incredibly fascinating.
(Bill) Yeah, me, too.
665
00:38:30,558 --> 00:38:31,422
It's great.
666
00:38:32,961 --> 00:38:36,328
After conducting the final test
on the Roswell Rock,
667
00:38:36,397 --> 00:38:40,493
I met up with Robert one last time
to get his thoughts on everything
668
00:38:40,568 --> 00:38:42,297
we discovered this week.
669
00:38:42,370 --> 00:38:44,634
There you are. Hey.
Good to see you again.
670
00:38:44,706 --> 00:38:46,435
What's going on?
How are you?
671
00:38:46,507 --> 00:38:47,906
Fine.
All right.
672
00:38:50,278 --> 00:38:51,870
Wow.
Wow.
673
00:38:51,946 --> 00:38:53,880
What a week, huh?
674
00:38:53,948 --> 00:38:54,972
Man.
675
00:38:55,249 --> 00:38:58,878
Before I tell you what I think,
I want you to tell me,
676
00:38:58,953 --> 00:39:00,921
what do you think?
How do you feel?
677
00:39:00,989 --> 00:39:06,222
I want to really thank you, you know,
for coming to Roswell to see me.
678
00:39:06,294 --> 00:39:09,786
I'm just thrilled that everything
we've done has shored up
679
00:39:09,864 --> 00:39:12,389
and validated what I've always
felt about the rock.
680
00:39:12,467 --> 00:39:13,491
Great.
681
00:39:13,568 --> 00:39:15,331
Do you have the rock here?
682
00:39:15,403 --> 00:39:18,372
Yeah, I happen to have the rock here.
683
00:39:18,439 --> 00:39:20,373
Well, it kind of travels
with you all the time.
684
00:39:20,441 --> 00:39:21,999
Thanks very much.
You're welcome.
685
00:39:22,276 --> 00:39:22,799
Appreciate it.
686
00:39:22,877 --> 00:39:25,607
If y'all need anything else,
just let me know. You got it.
687
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:26,908
Sweet.
688
00:39:26,981 --> 00:39:28,505
There it is.
689
00:39:29,784 --> 00:39:32,981
This part right here
you can forever tell people,
690
00:39:33,254 --> 00:39:35,745
well, this is where they did testing.
691
00:39:35,823 --> 00:39:37,654
This is where
they ground into the rock.
692
00:39:37,759 --> 00:39:39,249
Right, sure.
693
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,729
But I know that there were
some pretty emotional moments,
694
00:39:43,798 --> 00:39:44,992
to say the least.
695
00:39:45,266 --> 00:39:49,498
Yeah, well, you know,
it's, it hurt to take it
696
00:39:49,570 --> 00:39:53,370
from the original state
that I found it in, you know.
697
00:39:53,441 --> 00:39:56,877
That was the point where
I was still on the fence,
698
00:39:56,944 --> 00:39:58,639
and then we drilled into it.
699
00:39:58,713 --> 00:40:02,012
We determined right there and then
that it's not a plaster piece,
700
00:40:02,283 --> 00:40:05,446
it's not painted,
and then the CT scan.
701
00:40:08,656 --> 00:40:12,422
And, of course, also looking
at this under great magnification.
702
00:40:12,493 --> 00:40:14,620
(Robert) Wasn't that cool?
Wasn't that just too cool?
703
00:40:14,696 --> 00:40:15,958
(Giorgio)
Yes, I mean...
704
00:40:16,064 --> 00:40:17,861
(Robert) That blew my
mind when we saw that.
705
00:40:17,932 --> 00:40:21,732
Especially when I saw
the incision marks
706
00:40:21,803 --> 00:40:23,634
under high magnification.
707
00:40:23,705 --> 00:40:28,369
It's as if this was
a soft piece of butter
708
00:40:28,443 --> 00:40:31,412
that eventually hardened.
709
00:40:31,479 --> 00:40:36,041
And I have seen
these type of surfaces before
710
00:40:36,317 --> 00:40:40,515
in other places around the world
where sophisticated tools were used.
711
00:40:40,588 --> 00:40:41,612
I've seen that.
712
00:40:41,689 --> 00:40:48,458
I think that we have an artifact here
that might potentially be ancient.
713
00:40:48,529 --> 00:40:50,429
And so...
714
00:40:50,498 --> 00:40:56,596
maybe this piece wasn't
left behind after the crash,
715
00:40:56,671 --> 00:41:00,038
but that this is what
they were looking for.
716
00:41:00,108 --> 00:41:01,700
A key.
717
00:41:01,776 --> 00:41:02,834
Who knows?
718
00:41:02,910 --> 00:41:06,073
It might truly be
of extraterrestrial origin.
719
00:41:06,347 --> 00:41:10,511
Now, that is pure speculation,
but that does not prohibit me
720
00:41:10,585 --> 00:41:12,018
from asking questions.
721
00:41:12,086 --> 00:41:12,745
Sure.
722
00:41:12,820 --> 00:41:14,981
And we all know if those questions
are uncomfortable,
723
00:41:15,056 --> 00:41:17,616
and I always ask
the uncomfortable questions,
724
00:41:17,692 --> 00:41:19,421
so be it, I don't care.
Right.
725
00:41:19,494 --> 00:41:23,055
So, this has been nothing short
of amazing, and so before I leave,
726
00:41:23,131 --> 00:41:26,066
I wanted to give you one of these.
727
00:41:27,068 --> 00:41:32,370
It is the ancient pre-Columbian
gold flyer. Oh, wow.
728
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,776
I know this. I know this. I know
this very well. Wonderful, I'm glad.
729
00:41:36,844 --> 00:41:39,540
So you are now part of the club.
This is so cool.
730
00:41:39,614 --> 00:41:41,047
Thank you, thank you so much.
731
00:41:41,115 --> 00:41:43,379
You know, I hope that
this won't be the last time
732
00:41:43,451 --> 00:41:45,419
that we see each other.
733
00:41:45,486 --> 00:41:48,080
I hope not either. So, thank you very much.
I appreciate that.
734
00:41:48,156 --> 00:41:49,646
Yeah.
I'll take these with me.
735
00:41:49,724 --> 00:41:53,057
Sure glad to have you.
And, you know, give me a call.
736
00:41:53,127 --> 00:41:54,958
Yeah, I have your number, so...
737
00:41:55,029 --> 00:41:56,792
Anything new about this for sure.
738
00:41:56,864 --> 00:41:57,728
You got it.
739
00:41:57,799 --> 00:41:59,596
All right, Robert.
Thank you, Giorgio.
740
00:41:59,667 --> 00:42:03,603
Thank you very much. All right, take care.
Have a safe trip.
741
00:42:05,973 --> 00:42:09,670
So, now, when I connect the dots,
what do I think that
742
00:42:09,744 --> 00:42:12,110
the Roswell Rock actually is?
743
00:42:12,180 --> 00:42:15,707
Well, perhaps it was supposed
to be found back in 1947,
744
00:42:15,783 --> 00:42:19,014
but when it wasn't,
the crop circle was made
745
00:42:19,086 --> 00:42:22,852
maybe as a second attempt
to give us the message.
746
00:42:22,924 --> 00:42:24,721
And what is the message?
747
00:42:24,792 --> 00:42:28,455
Maybe it's a type
of star calendar letting us know
748
00:42:28,529 --> 00:42:32,625
that they're out there
and that they plan to return one day.
749
00:42:32,700 --> 00:42:35,669
Let's face it,
the final chapter of this book
750
00:42:35,736 --> 00:42:37,829
has not yet been written.
751
00:42:37,905 --> 00:42:40,169
But in the meantime,
I'm off once again
752
00:42:40,441 --> 00:42:43,433
in search of aliens.
