>> NARRATOR: Unearthly

inspirations... compelling

ordinary people

to perform

extraordinary acts.

>> MICHAEL CREMO: They've

thought it best to use members

of the human population to

communicate their message.

>> NARRATOR: Heavenly

visitations... inspiring

everything from war to peace.

>> DAVID WILCOCK: They could

have imparted that information

to Joan of Arc to give her the

confidence that ultimately led

her military campaign to

victory.

>> NARRATOR: And close

encounters... that leave behind

mysterious clues to our past...

and our future.

>> NICK CISKE: I thought,

"It's not gonna come out to

anything," and then something

that appeared to be a real

message regarding aliens

emerged.

>> NARRATOR: Millions of people

around the world believe we

have been visited in the past

by extraterrestrial beings.

What if it were true?

Did ancient aliens really shape

our history?

And if so, have they been

helped by individuals among us--

chosen to communicate

important messages?

>> NARRATOR: Rendlesham Forest.

Suffolk County, England.

80 miles northeast of London.

During the Cold War, more than

12,000 American officers and

enlisted men were stationed at

two Air Force bases on the

forest's northern and southern

edges: RAF Bentwaters and RAF

Woodbridge.

Shortly after midnight on

December 26, 1980, military

radar detected an unidentified

flying object.

And there were civilian reports

of strange, flickering lights

in the sky.

Within minutes, military

policemen, including Staff

Sergeant James Penniston and

Airman First Class John

Burroughs, were sent into the

woods to investigate.

What they encountered was

something the experienced

servicemen had never seen

before.

>> JAMES PENNISTON: By the

dissipating light, I started

seeing a silhouette of a

triangular craft.

It was completely black in

color, except for these

occasional bits of blue and

orange light and yellow light

running through it.

>> JOHN BURROUGHS: There was

blue lights.

There was like an orange spear

above it.

There was a white light that

would come out underneath it,

and then there was like a misty

orange haze.

>> NARRATOR: In his report,

Sergeant Penniston described the

strange craft's dimensions as

roughly six and a half feet tall

with nine-foot sides.

He also noted unusual markings--

raised symbols similar to

Egyptian hieroglyphs.

>> PENNISTON: I was expecting to

find, I don't know, USAF,

something like that.

And what I find is glyphs,

pictorial glyphs, making no

sense at all.

Then I was running my hand over

the side of the craft, it was

very warm to touch.

>> NARRATOR: Upon touching the

craft, the 26-year-old

serviceman claimed he received

a strange and powerful vision.

>> PENNISTON: It's ones and

zeros, and ones and ones, and...

it just makes no sense.

Take my hands off it-- it

stopped.

And then, uh...

then there was a bright flash of

light.

>> BURROUGHS: And then at that

point whatever it was appeared

to go up in the air and take

off and go back towards the

coast.

And we didn't have any more

contact.

>> NARRATOR: Penniston and

Burroughs were ordered by the

deputy base commander to treat

the alleged sighting as if it

had never happened.

Still, after three decades,

James Penniston remains haunted

by his strange vision.

So much so, that he felt

compelled to keep a written

record of it.

A record he kept locked away

for nearly 30 years.

>> PENNISTON: It's like, like

someone was holding a picture

up, okay, of this, zeros

and ones and... I could see it

in my mind's eye, okay?

So I recorded those one

afternoon.

What do they mean? I don't know.

>> MAN: More and more

scientists feel that

contacting...

>> NARRATOR: Could the strange

numbers from James Penniston's

vision be some type of

extraterrestrial code?

If so, Penniston would not be

the first to claim to have

received messages from

otherworldly visitors.

In fact, history is filled with

accounts of people compelled

into action by contact with what

they claim to be an

extraterrestrial, divine or

supernatural being.

Abraham... Mohammed...

and St. Paul are described as

having been inspired by visits

from God.

Moses... Confucius... and the

legendary Cambodian figure

Preah Pisnokar are said to have

met strange visitors who passed

along moral codes and

philosophies.

>> DR. WILLIE DYE: God chose

them because of their integrity,

because of their faith.

Men that were leaders that God

had chosen to put in certain

positions.

People respected those

leaders.

And people knew that they were

people of God.

>> GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: According

to the ancient astronaut

hypothesis, visions are not

divine at all.

They were, in fact, visits by

extraterrestrials where our

ancestors thought it was a

vision, but it never was.

The person didn't quite

comprehend that he or she was

visited by flesh and blood

extraterrestrials.

>> NARRATOR: Perhaps the best

known example of a man receiving

specific instructions from an

extraterrestrial source can be

found in the story of Moses.

According to the biblical book

of "Exodus," Moses first

encountered God in the form of

a burning bush.

It was here that he was given

his mission: to deliver the

Hebrew people out of slavery in

Egypt... and into the Promised

Land.

Later, at Mount Sinai, after he

had safely brought the Jews

into the desert, he was handed

the Ten Commandments as laws

given to man, directly by God.

>> CREMO: Eventually, these

moral codes were the foundation

of a whole worldwide religion.

>> NARRATOR: But to ancient

astronaut theorists, the story

of Moses may be interpreted as

not only a divine, but also an

alien, encounter.

>> TSOUKALOS: According to the

Old Testament, Moses went up on

Mount Sinai to meet with

quote-unquote "God."

And I quote, "And they saw

the God of Israel, and there was

under his feet, as it were, a

paved work of sapphire stone.

And it was like the very heavens

in its radiating clarity."

And my question is, does

something like this exist, or

was it some sort of a

misunderstood metallic ramp?

But it gets even better.

Moses actually describes Earth

seen from outer space.

The quote is, "Thereupon I saw

the whole round of the Earth,

at once the depth of the Earth

and the vast altitudes of the

heavens."

I mean, here he describes Earth

as being round.

At the time, that should've not

been known, according to

mainstream scientists.

>> NARRATOR: Is it possible that

Moses was inspired by a force

not only from the heavens

but from another world?

If so, is it possible that

other divine inspirations have

also had otherworldly origins?

(opera music playing)

>> JONATHAN YOUNG: Puccini said

that his great opera, Madama

Butterfly, was from God-- that

he wrote it down-- but it came

directly from a divine source.

William Blake, whose entire

opus, his writing and painting,

was based on repeated

angelic visitations.

Brahms said that his music came

from something beyond himself.

He was the one who wrote it

down, but he had to give credit

to something beyond himself.

>> NARRATOR: Could great works

of art, music, literature,

and religion really have been

gifts to humanity from

other worlds?

If so, then why weren't these

gifts given directly from

aliens to man, instead of

being communicated through

human intermediaries?

Perhaps an answer-- like many

alien messages-- can be found

in one of the oldest, and

holiest, places on Earth.

>> NARRATOR: If, as ancient

astronaut theorists believe,

extraterrestrial beings have

been contacting us throughout

the centuries, then what are

they trying to tell us?

>> DAVID WILCOCK: It appears,

again and again, that here on

Earth we're dealing with

something that could be

called the hidden directorate--

a directing force of

intelligent beings, who may

even be our progenitors...

and have been working with

humanity ever since we began

evolving on this planet, and

will intervene, at key points,

to try to nudge our development

in a certain direction.

>> TSOUKALOS: Why were some of

our ancestors told to construct

a building...

or to build an ark?

Personally, I think, to ensure

mankind's survival.

There are stories of malevolent

gods, of malevolent

extraterrestrials.

But, by and large, the stories

that we have from ancient

times, the gods were actually

very benevolent.

And these extraterrestrials

have helped us throughout

the millennia to survive

to this day.

(thunder crashes)

>> NARRATOR: One of the oldest

and most widespread stories

of divine or unearthly

intervention in human events

can be found in the many great

flood myths.

>> WILCOCK: There are flood

myths all over the world, not

just in the Bible.

You can find them all

throughout South America.

You can find them in Native

American traditions.

You find them in the Celtic

traditions; the legend of the

Ragnarok; the deluge.

It's in Asia.

Native Africans have

flood myths.

So the story of Noah is not an

isolated event that only

happens in the Bible; it's part

of a bigger story.

>> NARRATOR: The oldest

documented flood myth is the

story of Utnapishtim in the Epic

of Gilgamesh.

The ancient Sumerian tale was

discovered on a series of clay

tablets dating back thousands

of years.

>> WILCOCK: Utnapishtim has a

story which is almost identical

to the story of Noah.

There's only a few

slight differences.

In the Utnapishtim story, the

beings that spoke to him and

warned him about this spoke

through the walls of his house,

and his house then became the

craft that was used to evacuate.

>> NARRATOR: Like Noah,

Utnapishtim collected every type

of animal in anticipation of

the flood.

But could it have really

been possible to collect every

type of animal and fit them all

in a single craft?

Or might the ark have been a

metaphor for another, much more

advanced, and extraterrestrial,

form of transportation device?

>> WILCOCK: The ark in the

Sumerian story is shaped

like a cube.

We now have physicists that are

developing hyperdimensional

physics models in which they're

actually plotting out the

mathematics of how these higher

dimensions are constructed and

what they look like.

It's called a tesseract.

A tesseract is a cube

within a cube.

So it's possible that the cube

that was referred to in the

original Epic of Gilgamesh

could be describing a star gate

portal that used this type of

hyperdimensional geometry as a

way to ensure that Utnapishtim

and all the animals and the

people that he saved wouldn't

be here on Earth at all.

And that's how they were able

to survive the deluge.

>> NARRATOR: Around the world,

many churches, temples and other

holy structures are said to

have been divinely inspired by

angels, gods, and even beings

from other worlds.

But why?

To honor and praise a supreme

being... or might there be

another purpose?

Angkor Wat, Cambodia.

In the 16th century, one of the

first westerners to see this

elaborate temple, Portuguese

monk Antonio de Magdalena,

described it as an

"extraordinary construction as

like no other building

in the world."

With each side measuring nearly

a mile long, Angkor Wat remains

the planet's largest

religious structure.

Although mainstream

archaeologists believe Angkor

Wat was built in the 12th

century, by King Suryavarman II,

as a state temple and capital

city, Cambodian legends

maintain it was built as far

back as 600 BC by Preah

Pisnokar, the offspring of a

commoner father and a mother

who came from the heavens.

When grown, Preah was said to

be abducted up into a flying

palace by a group of

otherworldly beings led by the

god Indra.

>> TSOUKALOS: The message

Preah received was to be a

leader for his people,

and a teacher.

He was taught all these

different things when he was up

at Indra's heaven, this flying

palace up in the sky.

When he came back to Earth,

after this long education,

Preah was basically the chosen

one to teach his people in the

ways of the world and

the universe.

>> NARRATOR: According to the

myths, Preah was also

commissioned to build Angkor

Wat not just as a sanctuary of

peace and healing, but as a

landing zone for the sky beings

who taught him, referred to as

"the glowing ones."

>> TSOUKALOS: The way it is

described, it says that no real

tools were actually used, but

just magical water.

He was able to pour this

magical water onto stone, and

after a while, it would harden

into place.

Magical water?

Come on!

There is no such thing as

magical water.

So my question is: what type of

technology was used?

Preah was able to build this

magnificent city with ease.

That's what the ancient texts

are saying.

>> JASON MARTELL: Angkor Wat was

more than likely built by the

hands of human beings, but the

architectural plan of

sophistication to lay out that

type of complex could not have

been engineered by human beings

alone at that time.

>> NARRATOR: 6,000 miles

northwest of Angkor Wat, a

15th-century French girl also

reportedly received a divine

inspiration-- not to build, but

to lead men in war.

Orléans, France.

In 1429, the city was besieged

by the English during the

Hundred Years War.

The survival of the French

military and government

appeared doomed.

Then, 17-year-old Joan of Arc

traveled to Château-Chinon,

where she persuaded the local

leaders that the Saints Michael,

Catherine and Margaret had

visited her and told her that

her presence in Orléans would

inspire the French army to

break the siege.

>> YOUNG: The Joan of Arc story

is a fabulous tale of a vision

really affecting history in a

practical and concrete way.

France was in bad trouble.

This sensitive soul and very

young girl has the vision of

saints that come to her and

tell her to lead an army and

free a city.

She does so.

She also has some prophecy from

these visitations that she is

able to end the siege of a

major city and make major

contributions to history-- all

because these saints came to

her in a vision.

>> NARRATOR: While Joan served

primarily as a military

figurehead, she also designed

new artillery tactics and

repeatedly outsmarted the more

experienced English commanders.

But did her mysterious visions

actually come from heaven?

Or might the French teenager

have received, as ancient

astronaut theorists suggest, a

type of advanced

extraterrestrial knowledge?

>> WILCOCK: If this is, in fact,

what was happening, then it

would lead one to conclude that

the hidden directorate decided

that the way the world would

turn out if this battle had not

been won in favor of the French

would have been an extremely

negative outcome for humanity.

So Joan of Arc was then

contacted by a luminous

extraterrestrial being that

could have imparted that

information to Joan of Arc to

give her the confidence that

ultimately led her military

campaign to victory.

>> NARRATOR: If extraterrestrial

beings have inspired and

affected human events, then is

it really, as some suggest, to

help improve humanity?

Or could there be another,

perhaps darker and more

sinister, agenda?

>> NARRATOR: Hissarlik.

Northwestern Turkey.

More than 3,000 years ago, this

was the walled city of Troy.

According to Greek mythology,

Troy was the site of a horrific

war between the Trojans and the

Achaeans that was manipulated

by the gods.

>> RICHARD RADER: Thousands upon

thousands of people died, and

the city of Troy is totally

destroyed.

It's hard to imagine when you

read stories like this, of gods

asking people to go to war, do

things they wouldn't want to

do... it's hard to imagine that

they want what's best for us.

>> TSOUKALOS: In my opinion,

extraterrestrials are just

like humans, so, of course,

extraterrestrials also would

take sides.

They would take sides with

certain people and make enemies

with other people.

>> NARRATOR: But when bad things

happen to good people, does it

suggest that alien visitors are

capable of having evil intent?

Or does it simply suggest the

presence of bad aliens, as well

as good ones?

>> RADER: You look back through

these stories-- some of which

have to do with actual

historical events that led to

blood, guts, destruction-- and

you say to yourselves, "Maybe

they don't want what's best

for us.

Maybe their values and concerns

have absolutely nothing to do

with ours."

>> TSOUKALOS: Just like there

are good people and bad people

here on Earth, there is good

and bad extraterrestrials

out there.

Not everything is hunky-dory

out there.

Good and evil permeates the

entire universe.

Yin and yang.

There's a balance.

>> REV. MICHAEL CARTER: I'm not

sure it's always that cut

and dry.

In the Book of Exodus, some

translations say an angel

killed all the firstborn

Egyptians.

Some say that "the Lord"-- and I

put that in quotations-- uh,

slaughtered the firstborn

Egyptian, uh, sons.

Hard to reconcile that, at

least in my perspective, that a

benevolent, loving God would

have angels to slaughter

innocents, to slaughter kids.

>> NARRATOR: Half a world away

from the Mediterranean, across

the Atlantic, another massacre

of innocents was said to have

been directed by the gods.

Tenochtitlán, Mexico.

500 years ago, this was the

capital of the Aztec Empire.

During the 15th century AD, the

high priest Tlacaelel claims to

have received a command from the

gods in the form of a dream.

His people were to perform

human sacrifices.

>> PHILIP COPPENS: The Aztecs

are like so many other

civilizations on this planet.

For them, dreams were the

primary means of communication

with the other world.

So interpreting the dreams was

the central thing which the high

priests had to do.

Now, the question is, why did he

do this?

Is this just something

Tlacaelel invented, or is it

really the fact that he had a

dream whereby this new and

brutal regime somehow had to be

imposed upon his people?

>> NARRATOR: But if, as ancient

astronaut theorists maintain,

there are malevolent gods-- or

evil extraterrestrials-- does

that suggest we have something

to fear?

Or might the evil be found not

in the message, but with the

messenger?

>> TSOUKALOS: The possibility

that some messages that were

sent by extraterrestrials

have been received and

misinterpreted is... is fairly

large, because our ancestors

thought that these messages were

sent by godlike beings, by

divine creatures, which they

never were.

>> COPPENS: Now, there's quite

a bit of evidence, even

contemporary, of people

committing murders or about

to commit murders who believe

that either God spoke to them

or something else, and we

actually find in many cases

that this is not the case,

that this is delusion.

>> NARRATOR: In the Bible's

Book of Genesis, God instructs

Abraham to kill his only son,

Isaac.

But was this command really

given by God, or might Abraham

have received multiple messages

from more than one being?

>> COPPENS: Might it actually

be, in origin, a sort of

conversation whereby Abraham

and Isaac are not subjected to

one deity but to more than one

deity giving them contradictory

messages, whereby one being

might be saying, "Kill your

son," and the other being might

be saying, "Don't kill your

son"?

Are we in fact maybe confronted

with two warring civilizations

or two warring tribes?

>> TSOUKALOS: And I really do

think that the gods, the

extraterrestrials, knew 100%

what they were doing.

Just like when we arrive on a

different planet and we

achieve instant godlike status,

we'll use that to our advantage.

We're not gonna say to them,

"Oh, no, no, no, we're like

you."

We'll say, "Yes.

You obey us or else."

And that is exactly what

happened here on Earth 10,000

years ago.

>> NARRATOR: For ancient

astronaut theorists, one fact

is certain: after contact is

established, the fate of the

human messenger is not always a

pleasant one.

After her capture by the

English army, Joan of Arc

burned at the stake as a

heretic.

Saint Paul, who converted to

Christianity after a divine

apparition, was later executed

by the Romans.

And Moses led his people

through the desert for 40

years, but could not enter the

Promised Land himself.

>> DYE: Anytime God choose a

particular person to do a

particular job, you're always

gonna have opposition.

Moses had opposition, you know,

with Pharaoh.

And Paul, of course, was stoned.

Those outside entities, those

forces that came against them,

that was the burden, so to

speak.

>> TSOUKALOS: Some people who

might have received conceivable

messages by extraterrestrials

are at first fearful that they

might have to upend their

lives, or even worse, be called

crazy.

>> NARRATOR: But could the fear

of ridicule or death on the

part of human messengers

explain why there are not more

alien messages that get

transmitted?

Or might many of those who have

experienced extraterrestrial

contacts have closed their eyes

or shut their ears, simply

because the truth may be too

incredible to bear?

>> NARRATOR: Billions of people

around the world consider holy

books like the Bible and the

Koran to be the word of God.

Hundreds of millions of Hindus

view the Mahabharata as a guide

to spiritual enlightenment

handed down by the god, Lord

Krishna himself.

Each of these holy books

contains religious principles

in the form of philosophies,

parables and moral codes.

>> YOUNG: Messages from beyond

our ordinary knowledge seem to

come in a variety of forms: a

visitation, a dream, sometimes

an object, a tablet, a golden

plate, a book.

And so it helps.

A book is an ordinary object we

are familiar with.

And yet, if it's seen as

divinely inspired, we can take

it as more than an ordinary

book.

>> TSOUKALOS: The great

majority of mankind today

regards the Bible, the Torah

and the Koran as the word of

God.

But is it possible that these

books were nothing else but

guiding books of how we should

conduct our lives and that these

moral codes were, in fact, given

to us by extraterrestrials whom

our ancestors thought were gods?

>> CREMO: I don't think the

Mahabharata is a work of

fiction.

It's an actual history.

And the history given in the

Mahabharata includes not only

actions of human beings on

Earth, it also includes actions

of extraterrestrials on other

planets and on this Earth, in

interaction with human beings

here.

>> NARRATOR: Cultures all over

the world believe deities and

other nonhuman entities

frequently communicated through

intermediaries known as

prophets.

In the Koran, it's written that

God has sent over 100,000

prophets throughout history.

Many Native American cultures

believed gods spoke to them

through shamans, much like the

oracles of ancient Greece.

>> YOUNG: An oracle is a

person, but a person in some

divine state, an altered state

of some kind, who is able to

hear the voices of the gods and

then translate it into

accessible human language.

>> NARRATOR: But could the same

phenomenon apply to

Judeo-Christian religious texts?

Might biblical stories of

angels and miracles actually be

misinterpretations of ancient

alien contact or inspiration?

>> YOUNG: The visitations or

apparitions come to give some

gift-- to open the mind, to lead

to a new perception, to lead to

a new possibility-- either a

new artistic take on something

or a new plan for humanity.

Often, we're trapped in some

kind of thinking that needs to

break beyond its known limits,

but we're caught.

We are unable to see, to get a

transcendent perspective.

And that is what the visitation

makes possible.

>> NARRATOR: If that is true,

there might be additional

evidence of alien contact by

examining breakthroughs in the

fields of astronomy,

archaeology and physics.

Or perhaps what is arguably the

most universal of all

languages: mathematics.

Cambridge University, England.

February 1913.

Mathematics professor Godfrey H.

Hardy receives a letter

containing complex mathematical

theorems and formulas from

26-year-old Srinivasa Ramanujan

of India.

The distinguished scholar is

stunned by what he reads.

>> WILCOCK: Hardy looks at

these theorems and says, "My

God, we've never seen anything

like this.

This is mathematics of the

highest order.

It's so convoluted and complex

that nobody could've come up

with this by their imagination;

there has to be something here."

>> NARRATOR: An acknowledged

genius and mathematical prodigy

since childhood, Ramanujan was

devoutly religious, and often

claimed his breakthroughs were

communicated to him in his

dreams by the Hindu goddess

Namagiri.

In the decades since, his

theorems have proved to be

invaluable to those working in

cutting-edge fields like string

theory.

>> WILCOCK: All of the science

that we need to eventually be

able to create portals, star

gate travel, hyperdimensional

access mechanisms, levitation,

teleportation-- it all needs a

mathematical foundation.

And the closest that we have

right now is the Ramaianen

equations that we've been able

to decipher so far, which came

to him directly from this

goddess, who appeared to him in

dreams.

>> NARRATOR: Could Ramanujan

have been telepathically

receiving important information

that might enable humans to

build a portal or star gate to

other dimensions or alien

worlds?

If so, why?

What is the ultimate purpose of

what some believe to be alien

communications?

>> NARRATOR: October 2010.

For nearly 30 years after their

alleged encounter with an

unidentified aircraft in

England's Rendelsham Forest,

retired military airmen James

Penniston and John Burroughs

rarely spoke to each other

about the incident.

Yet both men remained haunted

by their experience.

>> PENNISTON: That was a

life-changing event that

happened out there.

You know, the problem with

life-changing events, they

affect you for your life.

>> BURROUGHS: I want to know

what it was.

I think there's people out there

in our government that have

a better idea and they could

tell us what went on, what

happened to us, but I don't know

how to tell you for sure wh-what

it was and where it came from.

>> NARRATOR: Shortly after his

reported encounter, James

Penniston had felt compelled to

write down the long and complex

numerical sequence of ones and

zeros he claimed he saw

when he touched the spacecraft.

But were they really just

random numbers?

>> PENNISTON: I was getting

this-- not from memory-- but

this mental picture of these

codes written out, this

binary-type code.

So, I tried to suppress it, but

I just had this urge to put

these down.

>> COPPENS: We now realize that

the best way of communicating

with an ancient civilization is

the binary code.

If we know this, then obviously

anybody else in the universe

will know this, as well.

And when we know that our

ancestors, either on their own

or with some help from

strangers, knew this as well,

then we realize that really the

binary code is the best, if not

the only means, of alien

communication.

>> NARRATOR: For three decades,

Penniston kept the mysterious

numerical sequence hidden

between the covers of his Air

Force notebook.

There they remained...

unexamined and undeciphered.

>> PENNISTON: I was scared to

death.

I was sitting there going,

"Okay, there's something

wrong with you, Jim.

You're not right.

You're not thinking straight.

This stuff is so bizarre.

You can't tell anybody this.

They'll take your gun away from

you, they'll kick you out."

All those things were in

jeopardy.

That's what I was thinking

about at that moment.

That if I start telling anybody

exactly what I was thinking,

that would be the end of it.

>> YOUNG: The "refusal of the

call" is probably an

experience all thoughtful

people have-- that is, there is

some project, some task, some

mission.

But we waver, we doubt

ourselves, and don't

immediately respond to our

destiny.

This is not a good thing.

>> NARRATOR: After eventually

leaving the Air Force and

returning to the United

States...

Penniston found he was being

haunted by persistent dreams,

both about his experience in

the forest, and the meaning of

the mysterious numerical

message he received.

>> PENNISTON: What do they

mean?

I don't know.

I've never had them analyzed or

anything like that.

I mean, we were out there doing

our jobs with a situation that

we'd never handled before.

>> NARRATOR: In October 2010,

Penniston entrusted his six

handwritten pages of ones and

zeros to a computer programmer.

He hoped the apparently random

series of numbers could be

translated into something

resembling a readable message.

>> CISKE: Could someone write

out six pages of binary?

Well, probably not.

Um, they would need some help,

or they would have to be some

kind of savant or

super-calculator.

I started transcribing it into

my computer to see what I might

find.

I thought, "It's not gonna come

out to anything."

And then something that

appeared to be a real message

regarding aliens emerged.

>> NARRATOR: To his

astonishment, after plugging

the numbers into a computer, a

fragmentary sentence emerged.

It stated:

"EXPLORATION OF HUMANITY

CONTINUOUS FOR PLANETARY

ADVANCE."

Another portion of the message

revealed what appeared to be

navigational coordinates.

Could this now decoded series

of numbers actually be the

evidence the human race has

been searching for?

Proof that we are not alone?

>> CISKE: "Exploration of

humanity."

Is that for good or for evil?

"Planetary advancement," is

that advancing the human race,

as many have theorized, or is

that the advancement of some

armada coming to conquer Earth?

>> NARRATOR: As for the

navigational coordinates,

amazingly, they point to the

geographic location of a

mysterious sunken island known

in Celtic legend as Hy Brasil.

It was said to be the home of a

civilization thousands of years

ahead of its time.

It is also occasionally

referred to as, "the other

Atlantis."

>> WILCOCK: Hy Brasil was

believed to be a mysterious

land in which the people living

there had a high degree of

civilization.

They used sound technology and

vibrational healing technology.

They were highly ethical,

highly moral people, and they

considered everyone over in

Europe to be barbarians, and

they did not want to mix with

them at all.

They enjoyed the isolation and

the seclusion.

>> NARRATOR: But if the strange

binary message in Penniston's

notebook lists the coordinates

of Hy Brasil, what does it mean?

>> WILCOCK: They may be ancient

astronauts, and the Rendelsham

Forest incident could've been

them coming back, finding a

person who was ready to receive

the message, who had the right

tuning to receive the message...

to let us know that the people

we call the Hy Brazilians are

still out there and they want

us to be ready to accept in the

future some sort of open

congress and communication

between our world and theirs.

>> PENNISTON: There's certain

incidents going out there where

I know where you don't remember

and I don't remember.

But there's certain things

together we don't remember.

>> BURROUGHS: Right, well, even

Ed said that he remembers me

pulling my weapon, and we all

blacked out.

And I don't remember that.

>> NARRATOR: In December 2010,

James Penniston along with John

Burroughs plan to return to

Rendlesham Forest-- and to the

exact same site where they

claim to have encountered a

mysterious craft 30 years

earlier.

>> PENNISTON: We're both

compelled to go back.

Being in that area will cause

us to have total recall of what

happened in December of 1980.

>> BURROUGHS: I can't explain

it, just like I couldn't

explain it the first time, but

I think we're gonna have a

better understanding what we

need to do from there.

>> PENNISTON: Could there be

more?

Um... yeah.

There could be more.

>> NARRATOR: If Penniston and

Burroughs do return to the

English forest where they claim

to have had a close encounter,

what will they find there?

More clues?

Even more messages?

And what of the mysterious

binary code found in

Penniston's notebook?

Does the phrase: "EXPLORATION

OF HUMANITY CONTINUOUS FOR

PLANETARY ADVANCE" and the

strange geographic coordinates

that point to a lost island

really provide evidence that we

are being visited-- and perhaps

studied-- by visitors from

another world?

Could this event really be the

latest in a long line of alien

encounters that stretches back

to antiquity?

To the time of the gods?

If so, are they helping us?

Or are they preparing us to

help them?
