Ancient Aliens S04E09: The Time Travelers

4/28/2012

12 Comments

 
Tonight on Ancient Aliens we discuss the question everyone has been asking: are ancient aliens really “humans coming from our own future” or “time traveling extraterrestrials”? After all, these are the only two possibilities.

We begin with Einstein and relativity to give a science-ish cover to the episode by relying on actual physicists who discuss Einstein’s theories and their relationship to time travel near the speed of light. Naturally, this leads directly to Hitler, just because no alien documentary is complete without Hitler. Einstein, the show claims, accidentally helped Hitler build a time machine in Poland between 1943 and 1945 by “revealing” relativity 40 years earlier. Whatever.

Conspiracy theorist Jim Marrs, author Rise of the Fourth Reich, has nothing very interesting to say, and Mike Bara, an alien theorist with very little connection to reality, then argues that the Nazis invented a time machine shaped like a bell and disappeared into an alternative time line. Could Bara join them? It would seem like the people who are so certain about these ideas ought to go and build one of these time machines they profess to know exactly how to make and leave this timeline in peace.

A 1965 fireball in Pennsylvania is then suggested to be a FUTURE SPACE NAZI according to Marrs because the UFO sighting involved with this crash claimed the UFO (conveniently not available for inspection) was the same bell-shape as the Nazis’ alleged time machine. Also shaped like bells: Bells.

But that’s not all. We have more NAZIS to go. Now we talk about how the Nazis went to Tibet in search of the origins of the Aryan race (detailed in the very good and serious book Himmler’s Crusade) but actually discovered TIME TRAVEL. Journalist Philip Coppens talks about how the Buddhists saw time as cyclical, and certainly-not-an-ancient-astronaut-theorist David Childress tells us that Buddhist stupas are the same shape as the Nazi time machine. Coincidence?! Yes. Especially since there is no Nazi time machine.

These self-satisfied theorists fail to understand that just because people believed that their meditations provided access to realms beyond time doesn’t mean it really did. Many early faiths claim access to realms beyond time, but this is due largely to the experience of the human mind in altered states of consciousness (feelings of timelessness), as detailed in David Lewis-Williams’ The Mind in the Cave (2002), not to time travelers from a Nazi dimension. When meditating, on certain drugs, or otherwise in altered states, the human mind experiences self-generated stimuli that, when filtered through cultural beliefs, yield feelings of traveling to realms above or below the earth, or outside of time and space.

But now we’re off to the “mysterious” ruins of Chaco Canyon in New Mexico, built between 900 and 1100 CE by the Anasazi, also called the Ancestral Pueblo. Giorgio Tsoukalos is there, dressed in a very strange combination of leather jacket and ankle-length scarf. He simply describes the ruins without anything outrageous to say. Sean-David Morton, the fake PhD, claims that Chaco Canyon’s cities are “perfect” in shape and alignment, which they are not. Even the buildings fail to form perfect circles. Marshall Klarfeld, a follower of Zechariah Sitchin’s lies, tells us that Native Americans are too stupid to build buildings, so a lost race must have built the cities instead. This is just old racist claptrap dating back to the colonial era, when the mounds of the Mississippi Valley were attributed to a lost white race. To his credit, Klarfeld doesn’t say “white,” but the anti-aboriginal idea is still there.

Ancient Aliens fails to understand that nearly every ancient religion, including the Anasazi, viewed creation as having multiple dimensions. Christianity has three: hell, earth, and heaven. These dimensions are related to altered states of consciousness, which at various points produce feelings of sinking below the earth or rising into the sky. This is not a literal record of traveling into the sky.

But such thoughts are beyond ancient alien theorists. Tsoukalos sees a petroglyph of a shaman holding a circle inscribed with smaller circles and declares it a map of our “spiral galaxy.” It is just a series of concentric circles, probably a shield. It isn’t even a spiral. Then we talk about the “ant people” of the Hopi, a mythic hybrid race, with William Henry, the investigative mythologist whose radio show I will be appearing on this week. Henry believes that the secret of the universe can be found in telephone booths, which are esoteric symbols for wormholes used by Jesus to travel the universe. I am not making this up, though his major claim is about wormholes and star gates (yes, just like in the movie), not phone booths. He incorrectly claims the Sumerian Annunaki derive from Hopi words meaning “ant (anu) friends (naki),” a derivation not supported by any modern linguist. This is more Sitchin nonsense. The word actually means “those of royal blood” and has no relationship to Hopi words from 4,000 years later. One might as well relate them to “anno” and “gnocchi,” and claim they are New Year’s pastas from Italy. “Annunaki” is a conventional transliteration; the Sumerian term can also be transcribed as Anunna and Anunnaku, which are obviously different than the Hopi words.

Another Hopi mythological race, the wing makers, were said, Childress argues, to have come from 300 years in the future—which I guess would be 1400 CE, not “our present time,” as Childress claims. If Childress wants us to take myths literally, we have to hold them to the 1400 date and not project random future dates just because. So, there you have it, Renaissance Europeans--Leonardo da Vinci?—traveled back in time to tell the Anasazi how to build kivas, which were “biodomes or biospheres made of nuts and bolts,” as Tsoukalos said. The reason that the kivas of Chaco Canyon are not biodomes is simple: there is no glass or plastic found at the site. Where did the domes go? The kivas were actually covered with regular old roofs, and they were far too small to support an entire ecosystem, not being airtight or having any way of pumping water or air even if they were.

An alien biodome, minus the dome, the "bio", and any way of using it as such. Actually, it's a Chaco Canyon kiva. (Library of Congress)
Next up: the Mahabharata from India, where the show claims “King Revati” or “Raivata” (both are used) visited Brahma and returned to find that while visiting the god hundreds of years had passed on earth. Revati is not the king’s name, however. It is the name of his daughter. The king’s name was Kakudmi for all of you keeping score at home, though he is sometimes called Raivata, son of Revata. I am not an expert in Indian epics, but I understand that Kakudmi is only briefly mentioned in the Mahabharata and the story of his voyage to Brahma is actually told fully in the Bhagavata Purana and other later epics. Some modern commentators believed the legend emerged to account for an anachronism in the myth where an earlier and later figure had been brought together.

Jeremiah in the Bible tells a similar story. This Rip van Winkle theme is well known in folklore (there are many other variants, including the stories of the Briton King Herla, the Irish bard Oisin, and the Japanese Urashima Taro), but ancient astronaut theorists think that this represents time travel due to special relativity. This theory was first proposed by Japanese sci-fi author Aritsune Toyoda. Instead, such myths talk about the timelessness of the gods, and how for them a thousand years are like a day. This isn’t time travel but a recognition that the immortals are exempt from the normal flow of time. This is a logical outgrowth of the development of gods who are immortal and in the cosmic level above earth; it is not a literal representation of time travel or Einstein’s special relativity. The idea derives, probably, from the recognition that when we sleep time moves differently in dreams; months or minutes might pass in our minds while eight hours march forward in reality. Once again ancient astronaut theorists believe ancient people are too stupid to have created their own ideas; all it takes is imagination, not alien science.

Besides, the Bhagavata Purana tells us that when Kakudmi returned to earth, he found that the people had shriveled and stupid. Since there is no evidence of a race of genius giants, there is no reason to take the rest of the story as fact either.

William Henry restates Robert Temple’s long-debunked and completely false Sirius Mystery, seconded by Philip Coppens, claiming that aliens from Sirius came to earth and gave us our civilization, including anomalous knowledge of the Sirius system. It’s been more than 20 years since anthropologist Walter van Beek proved that the supposedly alien-derived knowledge of Sirius recorded in Temple’s book was a fraud, and yet ancient astronaut theorists continue to repeat these claims as though they were true.

We then move on to discussions of modern physics and what it can tell us about time travel, which might be interested in another context but is mostly just filler here. Supposedly we will have a working time machine in ten years, according to a physicist whose name I didn’t catch, but sadly this time machine will work only on a single neutron at a time. Henry returns to talk about wormholes, but he knows not whereof he speaks, claiming falsely that the Dendera temple of Hathor depicts time travel portals because ancient Egyptian boats are shaped like wormholes. Obviously a boat must be a wormhole and not, as it appears to be, a boat to ferry the gods across the sky. This is wrong for many reasons, not least of which is the fact that our depiction of wormholes as essentially U-shaped is purely a conventional shape to represent an idea—in reality, if such things exist, they would take any number of shapes, assuming that it is possible at all to depict in a 2-dimensional shape a space existing in two realms across four (or more) dimensions at all.

I admit that at this point we are getting into cosmological discussions beyond my understanding of physics, and clearly beyond the show’s understanding too.  Giorgio Tsoukalos sums up just how little he knows about physics, ancient history, and, well, everything:

Picture
“If you place a picture side by side of the Hadron Collider and the Aztec calendar, there is an eerie similarity between the two. The Aztec calendar was known to be a gateway to the universe, and the Hadron Collider is similar to that because we are trying to unlock the secrets of the universe with this machine. And I find it fascinating that we have a carving from a long time ago and when compared with the modern day Hadron Collider there is an eerie similarity. Is it coincidence? I think not.”

They are similar only in that they are both concentric circles. You know what else has concentric circles?

Water
Shield
The program then combines images of the Hadron Collider and the Aztec calendar and makes the calendar rotate as though to reinforce the idea that it depicts the Hadron Collider. Of course the collider is not a flat circle. That is one image taken from one angle. The actual collider is much different.

Picture

Calendar

We finish up with UFOs and alien abductions, with the well-worn trope that the Grey aliens (earlier discussed as aliens in a previous episode) are in fact FUTURE HUMANS! The coincidence of humanoid shape has nothing to do with travelers from the future and everything to do with the fact that humans are inventing human-like creatures.

Childress claims the Roswell incident happened near the birthday of the goddess Isis, so therefore the aliens are really “some kind of time traveling extraterrestrials.” No, I do not understand the connection either, except that the narrator tells us that the aliens probably came from Sirius via teleportation (in the words of Edgar Mitchell, the ex-astronaut). So, they are smart enough to come from another star system by advanced super-technology on a specific day relative to the apparent position of that star in the sky relative to the earth and then dumb enough to crash their ship into the desert near Roswell.

Philip Coppens disagrees and states that the Greys are actually future humans who lost the ability to procreate and have returned back in time to have sex with us. This is mostly just a rehash of the material from the earlier “Greys” episode of Ancient Aliens. Apparently time travel didn’t have enough material to fill out the hour, so a bit of repetition was needed.

The program closes with a false dichotomy, asking if ancient gods were future human time travelers or extraterrestrial beings and if we can ever know for sure.

Remember, those are your only choices.

If you go and read old Indian Religious Books you will find more and more stories about time travelling very close to the fact that it can happen with the help of Science which exist no more with us. It needs more understanding rather than considering it MYTH.

They all sell cut and paste books of information that can be found in any mythology library at any major university yet have zero credentials. Most of them are just enriching themselves and seeking higher levels of fame and fortune not enlightenment. Everything most of them say are based on ancient Masonic principals and teachings then just adding their own made up theories. There is such a thing as mainstream metaphysics and these guys just ride the wave without paying the dues. There is virtually no information about most of the personal backgrounds on these people either which is a huge red flag. Educated people accept discourse and disagreement calmly, Henry insults others who try to present opposing views and is totally into himself; he directly puts down the works and opinions of others he then employs to sell his own shill. His website is so ridiculous and has whole pages culled from many unsighted sources including what appear to possibly be copyright infringements. He considers himself some sort of messiah and is on one big ego trip. The bottom line is cash, the new age is a money machine and a great way to scam peoples wallets.

Count me as one near the head of the line who feel that our ancestors get no respect from the fringe crowd. I was watching a show on the fauna of the American Midwest last night and a thought occurred to me. If prairie dogs are smart enough to figure out that piling enough dirt in one place avails to them a advantageous view of their surroundings, why don't the ancient aliens get credit for teaching them? We all know why. The premise wouldn't sell books or ad time.

I don't get the "if-anything-is possible-then-proof-isn't-necessary" theology which pervades the "minds" of these charlatans who hawk outrageous explanations of a mish-mash of events and factoids. They make me angry sometimes, but I do find solace in the fact that my dear Mother (herself no slouch in the intelligence arena) plays Ancient Aliens to put her to sleep at night.

I'm not the only one who finds it profoundly fascinating that a bunch of "star-stuff" came together in such a way that - some thirteen billion years later - I can type my thoughts on a keyboard and press a button to make it readable across computer screens around the world. It would be very nice to have an explanation as to how it all started, to have all the answers to seemingly-unanswerable questions. But I'm not going to fill my time with suppositions or waste the time of others by trying to postulate a construct that doesn't hold up to critical scrutiny.

It may not interest those who take these guys seriously this question of how things ACTUALLY came to be. It is less mundane to assume this or assume that. It made for some interesting reading - when I was eight years old. At some point people have to say enough is enough and put these guys on obscure, public-access channels where they belong. Not on a channel which claims to be legitimately interested in promoting history and science.

My name is Chris Berman. I am a military historian and a science fiction-alternate history author. My new book, Das Bell, has just been released and it is a fictional take on the various theories to Die Glocke (the Nazi Bell). If, as several researchers such as Nick Cook and Prof. Joseph Farrell are correct, the Bell, was capable of tapping into zero point energy, the left over energy of the big bang that permeates the universe. Secondly, if, as Nick Cook believes, the Nazis had achieved a breakthrough with regard to antigravity, then this would logically add up to the ability to manipulate time and space for as Einstein proved, gravity is simply an artifact of space-time that has been curved by a massive object, such as a planet or a star. The implications open the door to the ability to access alternate timelines and perhaps alternate worlds. Given the fact that the technology required to access zero point energy and to produce a field to unbend local space-time (antigravity) is beyond our present capabilities and way beyond those of the mid 1940s, I submit that the Bell may have been an attempt to reverse engineer a piece of alien technology. Certainly the Vril, led by Maria Orsich lends credibility to this conclusion.

From Dr. Joseph Farrell: “If you like a fun thriller exploring the edges of physical science, you'll love this story; throw in a parallel universe, dimension-hopping Nazis, and a wildly different outcome to World War Two - complete with American Indian empires - and you have a fun ride!"

~Dr. Joseph P. Farrell is a researcher and investigator of alternative technologies, and the author of over nineteen books on this subject, including The SS Brotherhood of the Bell.~

Hello Jason thank you for this blog,interesting,I have been doing much research b u the fact is online what is actual fact and what is myth oe fiction.There are some uncanny similarities between these flying serpent gods or reptoids in India there were the nagas shape shifters,In china there are the shpe shifting dragon kings,Egypt there is the serpent and baphomet used in satanism...The caduceus of Thoth who later became Hermes then mercury god of science was of two snakes this later was used as the DNA symbol we know today...I think that we can not ignore the facts that clearly point to so called Royal bloodlines all over europe and the world when we consider that george bush wasa skull and crossbones so was his father and the skull and crossbones was a symbol of the SS..Hitler was very much into the occult and i have been studying this now for many years because my grand father fought in the second world war and looking at film footage of Stalin,Hitler,Chamberlain now looks much more sinister than when we were quite nieve about what was really going on,I know about the Hopi,babylon,sumeria,Egypt,Mayan,HIndu.These mythical shape shifters turn up everywhere...Hitler mentioned so many times about Blood and the Aryan race but people must also remember that their propaganda was to fool people in to believing in a lie,which is exactly similar to what the romans did by destroying cultures as they went to replace them with thier own system..The library in Alexandria was burnt for this purpose,That library had records from all over,we can not then ignore the fact that history repeats itself because the liars want us to believe in the lie and fool us that is fact...We should not forget that these people twist everything to suit their agenda...eugenics actually started in england it was the study of skulls of race,later the Nazi's took this and studied the origin of species they worked out through this who was Aryan and superior and who was not Aryan and inferior...There was no compassion or real love in what they were doing like much science today it was cold,heartless...Fact is no one is inferior,a number or just a pile of elements if we think like this then we may as well be robots and we are not robots...Good prevails over evil because good has something that evil doesn't..If you take medicine men/women/shamans etc as well as buddhists they all tend to have similarities a connection to the heart,compassion for all living things and it in some cases is spiritual and ancient...Regression has shown me my root to the primative and other galaxies which is quite difficult to explain..Some think i am a shaman but it is much more complex than this...I see such forces as the Nazi's and others as aliens who have no feelings and are cold towards other's who are very loving,compassionate...I studied a few years ago about much of the propaganda of the Nazi's,thier interpretation of an aryan was twisted from it's true meaning it meant an advanced being in psychic and spirituality that encompasses compassion and love...Not a physical cold intellectual with blonde hair blue eyes and a physique like charles atlas this was much akin to the roman ideology of power over the weak by force..This dark ideology has existed for thousands of years..Hitler drew upon nature and had no regard for the hunted animal like a mouse a badger,beaver,rabbit..Truth reveals the lie for what it is...in the end...Thank you..peace..

I unfornutaley stubbled upon this awful article written from this ignorant mind who has zero true information about the topics hes trying to debunk. This episode of ancient aliens which he went into with a regressively biased mind seems to be the most education he has on these topics. Even worse he tries to conflate dimensions present alive with ones dead.

No Christianity does not talk about other dimensions they talk about destinations after death. There is such an obvious difference only an idiot would compound the 2. To say ancient cultures who talked about beings from the sky confused the 2 would imply they are as dumb as the author of this article. You know who else talk about other dimensions? Scientists. Mathematicians. The smartest people in the world today and quantuam theorists declare over and over again that other dimensions are not just possible but real. You know who were smart enough to combine lost ancient knowledge with quanntum physics? The Nazis. Lets put time travel aside and explain what the bell was? Or what landed in Pennsylvania that night? How many bell shaped objects do you see flying around?
And yes the Chaco Canyon structures are in perfect alignment with orbiting bodies. And theres a reason all cultures spoke of alternate dimensions. Theyre not in theyre head.

Amazing. Amazing that anyone believes in the BS peddlers on Ancient Aliens.

They take facts, mix them with a lot of pseudo scientific nonsense that sounds good to people that are already interested in that sort of thing, and BOOM, a "historical" series gets seven years and reruns with more people believing in this stuff all the time.
