Ancient Aliens

Is it possible that human kind's true origins

lie not on Earth

but 400 light‐years away?

According to our traditions,

we are all offspring of star people.

Throughout the world,

ancient people pointed

to the Pleiades and called it home.

References to the Pleiades

go back thousands of years

into antiquity.

In fact, the Kepler space telescope

has found evidence of planets in the Pleiades.

Now a new discovery

provides an intriguing link to this star system.

This object seems to come

from the Pleiades star cluster,

which is quite astonishing.

It's almost like a calling card

of where the extraterrestrials came from.

They came down from the Pleiades.

There is a doorway

in the universe.

Beyond it is the promise of truth.

It demands we question everything

we have ever been taught.

The evidence is all around us.

The future is right before our eyes.

We are not alone.

We have never been alone.

Scientists at the University of Hawaii

Haleakala Observatory

detect a strange object

traveling through our solar system.

They initially catalog it as an asteroid,

but after further examination,

researchers observe that the object accelerated

as it approached the Sun,

acting more like a comet

but without any other comet‐like characteristics.

The find forces astronomers

to reclassify it as something entirely new:

an interstellar object.

We'd never seen anything like this

in the solar system before.

We get an estimate of its size

at about 800 meters or half a kilometer in length.

Roughly a cigar‐like shape.

It was moving very fast,

a little more than 195,000 miles per hour.

You get a chill sometimes when you understand

something is very important or is really exciting,

and that's what I felt with this object.

Our Milky Way galaxy

is estimated to consist of 100,000 million stars,

each indicating the presence of a solar system.

Because the distances between them are so vast,

astronomers believed it was impossible

for an object from another solar system

to reach our own...

until now.

It just came from outside our solar system,

meaning it wasn't material from our star being created.

It's from a different star system somewhere else.

That's historic that we've actually seen it.

We now know objects can travel

from one star system to another.

Researchers dubbed the interstellar visitor

'Oumuamua, a Hawaiian term meaning

"a messenger from afar arriving first."

Is it possible that the interstellar visitor

was, in fact, a messenger?

One sent on a mission to our solar system?

Different scientists

have analyzed the data

and deduced that it's something very different

to an asteroid or a comet.

So the scientific data does point to it actually being

some artificial creation.

We've had open speculation

about how this thing might be an interstellar spacecraft.

Talk from... from a Harvard professor.

The chair of Harvard's astronomy department,

Dr. Avi Loeb,

noted that the object seemed to follow the propulsion patterns

of a new technology that is currently being tested

for future space missions, known as solar sail propulsion.

Large reflective sails capture sunlight

to propel a craft through the vacuum of space.

You can design, essentially, photon sails.

So the idea has been to make a‐a material

that reflects photons, which is light, very efficiently.

You deploy this and you basically accelerate

under starlight.

And then you just cruise.

Was similar alien technology used to propel 'Oumuamua?

It makes you wonder, was that a targeted mission,

some sort of probe that has been sent in to look for life?

Before man actually went to the Moon

and walked on it, we sent a lot of probes

around the Moon to look at it.

And it's quite likely that some version of NASA

from some other star system

could send a probe here to Earth.

The trajectory of the interstellar object

took it past the Sun,

where it made a turn and then ran parallel to Earth's orbit.

It traveled between our planet and Mars

before it began its journey out of our solar system.

When 'Oumuamua arrived, nobody knew where it came from.

Then in 2018,

an astronomer at the University of Hertfordshire retraced

its movements and discovered that it came from the Pleiades.

We have to ask,

is it possible that it was actually sent from the Pleiades?

For ancient astronaut theorists,

the revelation that 'Oumuamua traveled to our solar system

from the area of the Pleiades star cluster

is highly intriguing.

The Pleiades figures into the creation stories

of many ancient cultures from all around the world,

where it was taught that divine beings came from these stars

to seed life on Earth.

If we look at the mythologies of the Pleiades around the world,

there's some indication that this star cluster

is in some way related to a visitation in ancient times.

Located over 400 light‐years from Earth,

near the constellation of Taurus, the Pleiades

is commonly recognized as seven bright stars,

but actually consists of thousands.

The Pleiades.

Everybody's heard of the Pleiades.

They're also known as the Seven Sisters,

'cause if you have really good eyesight,

you can see seven stars in a very compact configuration

in the winter sky.

And in fact, there are a lot more stars than seven.

There are actually 3,000 stars in the Pleiades.

So the Pleiades is a star cluster.

They're not separated by huge distances,

but they occur in a small area.

That's different from a constellation,

where the stars could be moving in all sorts of directions

and are separated by huge distances.

The importance of this massive star cluster to ancient peoples

is revealed not only by their creation stories,

but also in how they oriented their most important structures.

All around the world,

we find ancient structures that have alignments

that infer a relationship to the Pleiades.

Now, these can be found in places like Chaco Canyon,

in Mesoamerica, in various parts of the world.

It's clear that the ancient people wanted to incorporate

the rising of the Pleiades in some way

with the building of these megastructures.

Additionally, ancient artwork and artifacts

pay homage to these same stars, with one depiction

dating back an incredible 18,000 years.

Perhaps the earliest reference to the Pleiades

is in the Lascaux caves in France.

But these go back thousands of years into antiquity,

even before the written language.

The Pleiades constellation shows up in various artifacts,

one of them even being a Sumerian tablet relief

that shows what appears to be some type of a god

coming out of the Pleiades constellation.

An interesting artifact coming out of the 1600s

is the Nebra sky disk, depicting the constellation of Pleiades.

Worldwide, we find hundreds of references

having to do with the Pleiades.

Not just on one continent, not just in one culture,

but in multiple continents, in multiple cultures worldwide.

That to me indicates that something happened here on Earth

having to do with someone visiting from the Pleiades.

The seven stars

making up the star cluster of the Pleiades

are very often represented as human figures.

Uh, in Greek mythology, they are seven sisters.

And in India, they are associated with the seven rishi.

These are wise benefactors to humanity

from some kind of astronomical place in the sky.

We have to wonder, why are the Pleiades

being so specifically picked out of the night sky?

Is it possible that the Pleiades are the place

where our sky gods have come from?

With thousands of stars in the Pleiades,

could it be a place that contains an Earth‐like planet,

one that could have been the home planet

for our extraterrestrial ancestors?

The Kepler space telescope has found evidence

of planets in the Pleiades.

So, Kepler works by finding dips of light

as a planet passes in front of the star that it's orbiting

relative to the Earth.

Astronomers were able to see that there is some dimming

of stars in the Pleiades, which is likely caused by planets.

Could the Pleiades star system be the place

where human life on Earth first originated?

And, if so, could there be a connection between the Pleiades

and the unusual interstellar object
