Ancient Aliens

Are alien visitors coming to Earth in spacecraft?

These mysterious lights appear to be intelligently directed.

Or could some be coming here by other means?

When we think of encounters with extraterrestrials,

it’s quite possible that they are using

some interdimensional way of traveling.

There are those who believe that not all close encounters

are of the physical kind...

Would we perceive life in these parallel universes

as like a ghost or a spirit? An angel?

...and that alien contact often happens without our knowledge...

It exists beyond the visible spectrum.

So the fact that we don’t see it,

doesn’t mean it’s not there.

...and leaving no trace.

Maybe we’re not really dealing with extraterrestrials

from outer space, but ultra-terrestrials

coming from parallel space.

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.

Pisgah National Forest.

Burke County, North Carolina.

As darkness descends on the Brown Mountains,

strange glowing orbs materialize on the horizon.

They hover over the range for a few seconds at a time,

and then mysteriously vanish.

The Brown Mountain Lights have been observed for centuries.

There are Indian accounts as early as the 13th century.

Back in the antebellum days, some plantation owner

was hunting there, disappeared.

Some of the people from his plantation,

slaves we would presume, went looking for him,

they disappeared; never explained.

But that night, these lights were seen.

For decades, these lights have been talked about,

studied, and no one is sure

exactly what causes these lights.

There are many theories about them,

but nobody really knows for sure.

There’s the very curious story

of a person named Ralph Lael

who claimed that he was following

the Brown Mountain Light one night

and that it led him into a secret cave full of crystals.

And a booming voice then told him about extraterrestrials...

...and that they had the technology to go

from one dimension to another,

to appear and disappear.

Extraterrestrials...

appearing and disappearing?

Moving between dimensions?

While it may sound like a fanciful story,

the Brown Mountain Lights have confounded attempts

at conventional explanation for centuries.

And this phenomenon, while baffling,

is not entirely unique.

All over the world, there are these anomalous lights.

One of the most famous is the Marfa Lights

in West Texas.

There is an area of the Mekong River

between Thailand and Laos, where lights appear

on the river every spring.

And it’s a well-known phenomenon in that area.

We have these lights, too, that appear in the Bay of Bengal,

and fishermen believe that they are the lights

of dead fishermen who are sometimes guiding them

to their deaths,

or, conversely, they’re helping them get back to shore.

These incredible occurrences of mysterious lights

that appear to be intelligently directed

as if they’re alive; and people have the sense

that they’re coming from somewhere else,

coming from other planets, perhaps even other dimensions.

When these lights are seen, in my opinion,

it’s the result of a technological process.

Some type of technology is involved.

And that technology would have to be extraterrestrials.

Could there really be an alien connection

to these seemingly intangible orbs,

often referred to as "ghost" lights?

Might they offer a brief glimpse into other worlds,

possibly within other dimensions beyond our reality?

Are they extraterrestrial, from another planet?

Were they ultra-dimensional, from a different dimension?

That all depends who you ask.

But the one thing that all held in common

was there is a greater reality in which we exist.

In the modern world, there is an invisible sea of wireless data.

Radio waves, microwaves,

and various other frequencies exist everywhere that go unseen.

And in fact, what humans are able to perceive

with the naked eye is extremely limited.

The human visible spectrum goes only from 380 to 770 nanometers.

This means that humans are only capable of perceiving

one octave of light of this entire spectrum.

The fact that we cannot see the rest of the spectrum

does not mean it’s not there.

Technology has enabled humankind to become aware

of much that cannot be perceived with the five senses.

But could there be far more that exists, even outside

the range of humanity’s most sophisticated technology?

Perhaps even hidden dimensions and alternate universes

that exist right next to our own.

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and point

to cutting-edge scientific research

that may have located proof of these alternate, unseen worlds.

Pasadena, California.

October 2015.

A team of scientists

at the California Institute of Technology

utilizes data collected

by the powerful Planck satellite telescope

to examine physical evidence of the Big Bang.

To their astonishment, they also discover evidence

of so-called hot spots, places where our universe

could actually be coming into contact with others.

Picture two balloons being blown up

really close together, and they happen to touch

or bounce off each other, or even just come very close

enough to interact.

That will leave an imprint in our universe

that will show up in this cosmic microwave background signal.

This raises the question, would we perceive

other dimensions and other universes

with other dimensionalities?

This also raises the question of whether life and intelligence

could exist in these parallel universes,

and would we perceive this as, like, a ghost or a spirit?

An angel?

When we think of the Brown Mountain Lights,

it’s quite possible that they are interdimensional,

or even from another universe.

And it makes you wonder what other unseen energies

are everywhere that we’re unaware of and can’t detect.

Could the Brown Mountain Lights

actually be emanating from a parallel universe?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and they suggest

that intimate knowledge of these inhabited worlds

can be found in the world’s most sacred texts.

Seaford, New York.

February 1958.

In a relatively unassuming suburban ranch home,

an unseen force begins to terrorize the Hermann family.

Screw tops mysteriously pop off bottles.

Objects fly across the room.

Furniture topples over.

After this phenomenon went on for several weeks,

the Hermanns became confused,

perhaps even a little bit frightened.

They reported the phenomena to the police department.

A couple of police detectives came over.

A psychological investigation would look into

the family dynamics.

Is there something happening at this particular point

in their journey that causes distress

they’re not aware of so that the physical vibrations

would affect their surroundings?

Eventually, the parapsychology lab at Duke University came in

to investigate the case.

The Duke lab talked about poltergeist phenomena

as possibly the release of emotional energy,

particularly from adolescents or young children,

or kids going through puberty.

The idea being that they were confused,

they didn’t know what was happening to their bodies,

they had emotional energy and trauma.

They were operating under the assumption

that the poltergeist phenomena was due to telekinetic energy

being released by the young boy in the family.

These things were seen by a whole group of people.

Even some of the experts saw the phenomenon.

Can this be something from another dimension?

It’s not clear. Is this a group hallucination?

Are they somehow channeling the sighting to each other?

The psychic expert said it’s often an adolescent girl,

so she watched the girl to see if somehow

it was happening when she was there.

But it didn’t really pan out,

so it didn’t follow classic lines, and yet

there were lots of witnesses, experts,

and no explanation was ever found.

Years later, Steven Spielberg wove the tale

into a fine movie that was a big hit...

Poltergeist.

If this poltergeist event was not simply the result

of telekinetic energy, as some investigators suspected,

then what can explain it?

Was the Hermann family really haunted by ghosts?

Or could they have encountered an entity

from another dimension?

We know science has been able to measure

all sorts of invisible things: the electromagnetic field,
