Did aliens really inspire our ancestors to build ancient templesand pyramids? And if they came here, did they leave behind any advancedknowledge of physics, astronomy, or mathematics? If so, is there any evidencethat remains to this day? One example, might be this one, often described asthe world's first mechanical computer, it dates back over 2000 years.

The AntikytheraDevice was found in 1900 by some divers diving off a small island in the Aegeancalled Antikythera. There was a shipwreckthere, and, in it was a coral-incrusted box, and it was made of metal alloys,and it then went to the Athens museum, where a good fifty years later, theywere able to X-ray this box, and they were able to decern, [that] cod wheelswere interconnected and give us a very good depiction of what this thing was,and it is a computer. It's a really sophisticated machine.

It's a very interesting piece oftechnology because it served two purposes: One, was that was an astronomicaldevice, or you could, by using it, chart your position to the stars andnavigate you ways to the seas; It was also an astrological device, so thatsomeone could tell you, "Ah, if you were born on this day, and your planetsite is this, then certain things are going to happen to you when the planetsare in this alignment." So [it] was a very interesting piece of technologythat literally had more complicated gears in inner workings than a modern daySwiss watch, and it's found to be dated, I think, like 200BC, so it's really inan anomaly as to who could have created that and what was being used for?

Whenarchaeologists first started to examine the thing in 1950s, they said theynever could conceive of ancient Greeks having such complicated machinery and infact, they said this was tantamount to finding a jet airplane in the Tomb ofKing Tut.

Even older than the Antikythera machanism,are these carvings on the wall of Dandera Temple(丹德拉神庙) complex in Egypt. To some, thestrange designs look eerily similar to objects very much in use today.

In Egypt,there is an underground crypt at Dandera that was always secret and only thehigh priest had access to that crypt. And it's very hot in there, very narrow,low ceiling, and on the walls, you have these reliefs(浮雕) of what looks like ancient lightbulbs, because we have to question one thing, how did the ancient Egyptianslight the inside of their tombs?
[ NARRATOR ] 01:05:26
According to most mainstream archaeologists, torches were usedby the ancient Egyptians to light the pitch black chambers of tombs andtemples. Yet nowhere on the ceilings, is there even the slightest evidence ofsuit or smoke residue. But if torches weren't used, how else could theseancient rooms and hallways had been illuminated?

Another theory that was proposed, is thatthe light was direct from outside by copper mirrors. And they've actually triedcreate that theory but unfortunately it failed because only after a fewcorners, the sun light dissipated because the copper mirrors were too weak.Also, there isn't enough oxygen inside those tombs, with which to support orfeed a flame of a torch. I was onceinside the king's chamber inside the Pyramid of Giza, and somebody turned offthe lights and immediately we were in pitch darkness, and I said "noproblem," I just took out my lighter from my satural and I turned on thelighter, and it didn't work. So how were the insides of the temples lit? I meanthe only remaining solution is by some sort of artificial light source. Andthat is, for example, a light bulb. So, at the underground crypt of Dandera, wefind reliefs of such light bulbs...

Egyptologists'explanation of this, and they have to have some explanation, there's got to beone, and it's pretty mondain(为世俗接受的), it can't be that it is anelectrical device. Their explanation, is that, it is a lotus flower and whatappears to be a bulb around is the aroma of the lotus flower. And so it's justa very odd depiction of a flower. But another explanation, of course, wouldbe, they actually had electrical lights.
[ NARRATOR ] 01:07:50
But if the ancient Egyptians had used some kind of electricallights to illuminate their passageways, why did this visual evidence exist onlyin the temple of Dandera?

In Egypt you had different areas of specialty, and Dandera wasthe area where the knowledge of the light giving source was kept. And thissecret knowledge was kept by the high priests, and they're the only ones who werepurveyed to this type of information, because Dandera was the special placewhere this specific knowledge was guarded and kept.

Scientific communities are not saying"Oh, there aren't extraterrestrials." or " they never didit.". They are judging whether or not this is a valid scientific theory.What do we mean by that, for something to be scientific theory, it really needto be something you can test with the obvious experiment.
[ NARRATOR ] 01:08:50
But how could the ancient Egyptians have used anythingresembling a modern day light bulb without access to electricity? After all,electricity wouldn't be discovered for thousands of years. That is of course,with the exception of what scientists called the Baghdad battery. (巴格达电池)

The Baghdad battery was discovered in ancientIraq, scholars today say " There's no way that ancient men were usingelectricity or light bulbs." So they looked at this the Baghdad batteryand there's better dozens of them that have been found in Iraq, and the onlymainstream theory is that they were using it for electric plating jewelry.
[ NARRATOR ] 01:09:27
Two major proponents of ancient alien theory, Jason Matell andGiorgio Tsukalos, demonstrate just how the Baghdad battery could generateelectricity, using a modern mockup of the device.

Well, basically, this is made up with aclay pot, clay just found actually in region of southern Iraq, and then youwould use a small copper lining, and something of a long lines of an asphaltstopper wrapped around an iron rod, and these all applied together, and thecombination of some weak acid of acid, vinegar, grape juice, orange juice, inthis case of wine, would be able to generate the charge by combining theseelements of rod and the iron rod and the copper, and the combination of thatcreates in abundance of electricity. So, what we gonna do is, basically, justfill the clay pot with some orange juice, you try not to spill it too much, andthen we go ahead and put the copper, rod back in there, copper, iron rod, wegive a moment to kind of fill that copper area there, and then by the turningof voltmeter, applying these (插上正负极),to each side, we should be owed thegenerate of charge. And there goes, into the positive. And if you give sometime to get the electrolytes really buzzing in there you'll see that this voltactually continue to rise.

But while some see the Baghdad battery asevidence that man was sparked on by extraterrestrial wisdom, others look at it,and simply say "So what?"

You could take... um...some ancienttechnology like the Baghdad battery, which probably was used for something likemetal plating, and in which it's justmake chemicals and it has certain chemical reactions, to add to their using forthis reason, and we can take and put a voltmeter on it and "Oh, l ook, we're able to getreading that of it!" Well, so what? EM...That's just a chemical reaction.If they were using it, say this battery to operate other machines, where arethe other machines? If they were sending the electricity down wires, where areall the wires that would have been all over the culture? Another one is, notlike the one of invention like that, is going to survive without all the otherinventions that would have been there the same time.

It is abattery, everybody agree with that, but nobody knows why they made it, and howthey made it, what mind would think of that. You know, electrical current, thatseveral thousands of years ago, it's very strange, but it's clearly a battery.

The whole ideathat the ancient civilizations actually had knowledge of electricity and usedelectricity, it's an accepted archaeological fact today. Just like in our owncivilization, where about 200 years ago, uh... Benjamin Franklin and otherscientists began experimenting with simple electrical devices, we now haveevidence that, over 3000 years ago, people were also experimenting withelectrical devices. Where might it have left then? What other electricaldevices would they've been able to create? I believe they probably created allkinds of electrical devices.
[ NARRATOR ] 01:12:38
Tombs,temples, ancient light bulbs, even electricity, here on earth, exist evidence ofarchitectural and technological wonders, centuries before we ever believe thempossible. But if evidence of ancient astronauts exist here on earth, what aboutelsewhere? Might we find what we looking for by looking in the sky? Here,at the ancient city of Teotihuacan in Mexico, evidence suggests, that ancientculture possessed an incredibly accurate knowledge of our neighboring planets.Some scholars have even interpreted the number and orientation of the pyramidsto perfectly reflect a model of our own solar system...
