Ancient Aliens (2009–…): Season 14, Episode 15 - The Alien Mountain - full transcript

A foreboding mountain bears
witness to astonishing events.

NICK POPE: Over the years,
there has been all sorts of weirdness

on this mountain.

Mysterious lights,
fire in the sky.

NARRATOR: Ancient stories link
it to otherworldly contact.

Oh, look at that.

- The spaceman?
- Spaceman, exactly.

Look at the helmet.

NARRATOR:
And it has become a hot spot

for modern-day UFO reports.

DAVID CHILDRESS:
We have extraterrestrials



giving a light show for people.

NARRATOR: Could this mysterious
mountain be attracting

extraterrestrial visitors
to Earth?

WILLIAM HENRY: The gods came
to this very specific place

because of something
either in the mountain

or something that was
placed there by them.

NARRATOR:
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.

NARRATOR:
Turin, Italy.

Situated on the western bank
of the Po River,

this city of nearly
two million people

is an important
international business hub.

It is also the heart of
the Italian automotive industry,

with the headquarters of Fiat,

Lancia and Alfa Romeo
all located here.

But overlooking
this modern metropolis

is Italy's most mysterious
and infamous ancient site:

Mount Musinè.

Rising to an elevation
of nearly 4,000 feet,

Mount Musinè has stood at
a unique crossroads of history,

geology and the unexplained.

This is a mountain where,
over the years,

almost to the beginning
of recorded human history,

strange things have been seen.

Lights were seen.

Sometimes these lights
have been associated

with the forces of good,

others with the forces
of darkness.

But make no mistake about it,
over the years

there has been
all sorts of weirdness

on this mountain.

NARRATOR: Mount Musinè stands
at the easternmost edge

of Italy's Susa Valley,

which stretches 31 miles west
to the border of France.

During the Bronze Age,
more than 3,000 years ago,

this valley represented
a major crossroads,

where the local Celtic people,
called the Taurini,

came into contact with

the most prominent civilizations
of the time.

The Bronze Age Celts
of Northwestern Italy

were very lucky, because
their particular location

was a kind of geographical hub

that had access to Northern
Europe, through the Alps,

and access to the Mediterranean,
going south,

and, indeed, across the
Mediterranean to Egypt.

And people think
that the ancients

pretty much stayed
where they were born,

but many of them traveled
vast distances

and encountered
many other civilizations,

and absorbed some of their ideas
very willingly.

NARRATOR:
The Celts in Northern Italy

came into contact
with the Etruscans,

the Egyptians and the Greeks.

Each of these cultures
had separate

but very similar
polytheistic traditions

in which they worshipped
a pantheon of gods

that came down to Earth
from the heavens.

And they all revered Mount
Musinè as a place of power.

According to
ancient astronaut theorists,

Mount Musinè may in fact be
a special location on Earth

because of where
it is positioned.

Mount Musinè has
an amazing ancient history

of magic and mystery.

The significance of its position

is that it's located
on a ley line,

which is a gathering place
of Earth energies.

NARRATOR: The concept of ley
lines originated in the 1920s

with English landscape
photographer Alfred Watkins.

While researching his book,
The Old Straight Track,

Watkins made
the curious discovery

that many of
the prehistoric standing stones

and significant ancient sites
of England and France

line up in
perfectly straight lines.

And many of these sites
that these lines pass through

have names that contain
the letters "L-E-Y,"

like Leyland,
Keighley and Otley.

Ley lines are an alignment
of ancient sites,

four or more of them
over any distance.

And these stretch around
the world in some cases,

and these are often associated
with the same sites

on the straight-line alignments.

So there's a whole network
around the planet

of lots of different types,

some linked with
the magnetic field,

others linked with
underground water

and natural energies
that move through the land.

NARRATOR: One of the most
significant ley lines

that has been identified
is the St. Michael line.

Starting from Skellig Michael
in Ireland,

the seven major sites
that lie along this line

each have a church dedicated
to the archangel Michael,

all the way down to the Stella
Maris Monastery in Israel.

And incredibly,
there is no record

of the people who lived
in these separate locations

having coordinated this.

One of the sites the St. Michael
line passes through

is Mount Musinè.

You've got this straight line
of all these sites,

and not just any old sites,
power sites.

The ancients believed that
certain parts of the world

were blessed with power, energy,

that Musinè is slap-bang
on that line.

NARRATOR: Is it possible that
ancient people were aware

of energy emanating
from the Earth

and were drawn to the area
of Mount Musinè

and the Susa Valley
more than 2,000 years ago?

And could these Earth energies
also be responsible

for the many strange events

that have been documented
in this area?

(thunder crashing)

Local legends passed down
from ancient times

tell about this mountain

being home to werewolves
and wizards.

It was rumored that a dragon
guarded an enchanted cave,

protecting a giant emerald.

And in the fourth century AD,
the Roman Emperor Constantine

claimed to have had
a vision of a cross

floating in the sky
over Mount Musinè

the night before
a decisive battle,

one that would lead to him
seizing control of Rome

from his rival, Maxentius,

and converting the empire
to Christianity.

POPE:
This was a pivotal moment.

The adoption of Christianity
as the official religion

really changed the world,

and that's now a large part
of the world we live in.

So did Mount Musinè have
a part in all of this?

And if so, what the heck
was this encounter?

GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: Now,
it was not just Constantine's vision,

because it is described
that the army of Constantine

also saw something
up in the sky.

So the question is:
Is this one of the earliest

UFO encounters
that we have on record?

And in my opinion, yes, it is.

NARRATOR: Could the many
extraordinary encounters

recorded at Mount Musinè
throughout the ages

be the product
of extraterrestrial visitation?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes, and suggest

that further evidence
can be found

by examining an incredible
flurry of UFO sightings

reported in much more
recent times.

Northern Italy.

December 2, 1973.

An Alitalia flight is
17 miles outside of Turin

when its pilot sees something
unusual in the night sky

over the nearby Mount Musinè,

something no one can identify.

In 1973, an Alitalia pilot
sees a strange glow

over the mountain.

This is apparently
later confirmed

by the control tower.

NARRATOR:
According to witnesses,

the glow appeared to be coming
from a mysterious round object.

Two Italian Air Force planes
that were in the vicinity

corroborated the sighting.

The UFO report is significant
not only because

it was witnessed by
multiple pilots and passengers,

but because within
just a two-week period,

no less than six separate
UFO incidents were reported

in the vicinity of Mount Musinè.

POPE:
If this was in isolation,

then perhaps you could
disregard it.

But when I look at Italy,

and particularly this
specific part of Italy,

it does seem as if
something is going on,

and it seems as if
the Italian government,

and maybe others, know that
there's something going on.

NARRATOR: What can explain
the strange incidents

that have been continuously
reported at Mount Musinè

for hundreds of years?

Is it possible, as ancient
astronaut theorists suggest,

that extraterrestrials are drawn

to this particular place
on Earth?

CHILDRESS:
This light phenomenon

and unusual activity
on Mount Musinè

has been going on
for thousands of years,

and continues to this day.

POPE:
The challenge really is

to find the connection,

to draw together the disparate
threads of this story

and say, "What is it about
this area that's so special?"

NARRATOR: Perhaps further
clues can be found

by investigating the strange
rock carvings found in the area,

carvings that appear to be
depictions of astronauts.

NARRATOR:
Val Camonica, Italy.

June 13, 2019.

Ancient astronaut theorist
William Henry has traveled

to this UNESCO
World Heritage Site

165 miles from Mount Musinè
to investigate what he believes

could be forensic evidence
that the early civilizations

of this region came into contact
with extraterrestrials.

HENRY: Hi, I'm William.
Nice to meet you.

NARRATOR: Joining him
is Luca Giarelli, the head

of the Val Camonica Historical
and Anthropological Society.

Luca has spent years studying
this mysterious region

of Northern Italy, and wants to
show William the rock carvings

for which this alpine valley
is famous.

This place is massive.

I'm ready. Let's go.

HENRY:
I'm here at Val Camonica

because it is a treasure trove
of images from the ancient world

that have been well-documented
and studied by scholars.

They don't agree on the meaning
of the images, but some of them

are very open-minded
to the ancient astronaut theory.

Footprints. Wow.

They look like deer.

Look at this. Incredible.

Wow.

HENRY:
Oh, look at that.

The spaceman, exactly.

Look at that helmet.

Right. It's like he's glowing.

HENRY:
Ah, the Camunian rose.

Who are the real-world Illuminati ?
Find out @ saveanilluminati.com

HENRY:
Wow.

19 Camunian roses?

NARRATOR: Archaeologists
call this mysterious object

the Camunian rose because
of its flower-like shape.

While its exact meaning
is lost to history,

some believe it to be
a religious symbol

or a representation
of the movement of the stars.

But ancient astronaut theorists
suggest it might also depict

something else, the vessel that
brought these helmeted figures

to Val Camonica.

Look at that.
That looks like a spaceship.

It's like you look up
in the sky,

and you would see
this kind of twirling,

spinning ship in the sky.

It seems to me, just looking
at it, they're trying to talk

about beings coming from other
worlds, maybe to this place.

Tell me about
that five-pointed star.

HENRY:
Mm-hmm.

HENRY: Sometimes the-the stars
mean energy, like,

energy from the stars
would come to this place

where star beings
would come to this place.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Okay. This is like
a newspaper, then.

It says, "This was in the sky
above us at some point,

and this spaceman came down and
maybe met the Camunian people."

NARRATOR: According to the ancient
stories of the Susa Valley,

the city of Turin was founded by
a character from Greek mythology

called Phaethon, who came
to Earth from the stars.

Legend states that Turin was
founded by the god Phaethon,

who is a son
of the sun god Helios.

And in the myth of Phaethon,
we learn the story

of how he descended to Earth
in a fiery chariot...

perhaps crashing
into Mount Musinè.

This also led
to something fortuitous

because he brought
gifts to this place.

He had great skills,
was a metallurgist,

and taught this
to the local people.

CHILDRESS: When we look at myths
such as the myth of Phaethon,

here is really
the story of a UFO

landing on a mountain
and interacting with the locals.

HENRY: When we look behind
this myth of Phaethon,

perhaps this is what we're also
seeing at Val Camonica.

I think, given the-the
connection with the spacemen

that are etched into the rock,

that we have to be open
to the possibility

that what the ancient artist
is trying to portray

is something that he actually
saw in the sky,

something coming out
of the heavens.

NARRATOR:
Is there a connection

between the stone carvings
found at Val Camonica

and the story of Phaethon's
descent from the sky?

And do other clues exist here

that point
to ancient alien contact?

Were there any other cultures

that were connected
with the valley?

- What sort of engravings?
- Uh...

Mm-hmm. Oh, the horned god.

Yeah. Right.

HENRY:
That means the Celts were here.

So, is this the only location
where we see the spaceman?

- Even deeper into the woods?
- Yeah.

I'd love to go. All right.

NARRATOR: Luca guides William
up a steep portion of the valley

for a rare look at another
carving hidden from public view.

I'm all right, thanks.

Wow.

We're-we're, like,
on the edge of a cliff here.

Wait a minute. Th-That's one of
them. Isn't it? Right there?

- LUCA: Yeah.
- How cool.

HENRY:
Wow.

LUCA:
Like the other one.

HENRY: Yeah, these are
just like the other guys.

Yeah.

- HENRY: The detail is amazing.
- Yeah.

HENRY:
Mm-hmm.

HENRY: There's clearly
some kind of an exchange

that's happening here.

It's like
they're making a photograph

of what happened at this place.

They're trying to say, "At this
spot, this is what we saw here."

HENRY: Of all places to
find a rock like this.

This is a very secretive,
almost initiatory place

where select people
would be brought here

to be told this story
about these extraterrestrials.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Were the ancient people
of what is now Northwest Italy

visited by beings
from other worlds?

And could these depictions
of spacemen

and strange craft descending
from the heavens have a link

not only to the origin story
of Turin

but also to the UFO sightings
that have been reported

over Mount Musinè
in more recent times?

Val Camonica is in this
incredible vortex, if you will,

that includes Mount Musinè.

We're looking at
a-an entire territory here

where these extraordinary
experiences are being recorded.

NARRATOR: According to
ancient astronaut theorists,

the carvings at Val Camonica

tell just one part
of a larger story.

And they suggest that
nearby ruins may reveal not only

that extraterrestrials
visited this region but why.

NARRATOR:
The Susa Valley.

966 AD.

While ascending
Mount Pirchiriano,

25 miles west of Turin,

and directly across
from Mount Musinè,

a Catholic bishop is startled
by an incredible sight

that suddenly appears
in the sky.

He sees strange lights
in the sky.

And these things are described
as planks and globes

made of fire,

firstly appearing to be on the
mountain itself, then rising up,

flying around across the sky.

But they weren't just sightings.

They were sightings
that had a profound consequence.

These strange sightings
prompted the bishop to say,

"This will be the site on which
we will build the new abbey,"

that came to be known
as Sacra di San Michele.

CHILDRESS:
So once again, we have

what seems to be
extraterrestrials

giving a light show for people,

uh, wanting to attract
their attention

and perhaps inspiring them
to-to do certain things.

NARRATOR: The Sacra di San
Michele, or Saint Michael's Abbey,

still stands atop
Mount Pirchiriano today.

It is to this sacred abbey

that ancient astronaut theorist
William Henry is headed

with author and historian
Gnomo Orzo, who plans to reveal

a historic secret.

- Wow.
- Oh, my gosh. Look at this.

- Yes. Susa Valley.
- Wow.

Wow, wow, wow.

- Look.
- That's incredible.

- HENRY: Musinè.
- ORZO: Yeah.

It's like Musinè and the Sacra
are-are twin peaks.

- ORZO: Yes.
- HENRY: Incredible.

And in this place
where the Sacra was built,

we have some other
interesting phenomenon...

NARRATOR:
According to ancient stories,

in this area of
the St. Michael line,

the energy line, or ley line,

that many believe runs
straight through Italy,

a highly advanced civilization
existed thousands of years ago,

a civilization that began
when the god Phaethon

came down from the sky
in his fiery chariot.

The local accounts of Phaethon
not only connect this figure

with the ancient Greeks
but also the ancient Egyptians.

And some ancient astronaut
theorists suggest

that as a bringer of technology,

Phaethon could be the same
extraterrestrial being

that was known in Egypt as Ptah.

HENRY:
Their names are very similar,

Ptah and Phaethon.

The legend says
that Phaethon founded Turin

in honor of the Apis bull.

Turin, or Turino, is called
the city of the bull.

Now, this is very interesting
because in ancient Egypt,

where the reverence
for the Apis bull originated,

we're told that the Apis bull,

or Apis bull, was actually
the Egyptian god of technology,

Ptah, incarnate.

Ptah was the Egyptian god
of smithcraft and alchemy.

So we have to ask the question:

Is Musinè a place that was known
in the ancient world,

where the secrets of alchemy

were ultimately going to be
stored or could be accessed?

There seems to be
a very important connection

between the cosmic knowledge
of metallurgy,

which was brought to Earth
by the gods,

and some kind of energy
present at Mount Musinè.

NARRATOR: If extraterrestrials'
knowledge of metallurgy and alchemy

was used to create
a technologically advanced

ancient city around
Mount Musinè, where did it go?

In the first century BC,

Rome conquered the area's
original inhabitants

and established
Augusta Taurinorum,

the colony that
eventually became Turin.

All traces of the people
and city that came before it

seem to have vanished.

HENRY: So the Roman Empire came
here and said, "We're gonna take

your knowledge and secrets,
we're gonna weaponize..."

Yeah, of course.

So the energy is still here
in this valley.

- All right, let's go.
- Yeah.

NARRATOR:
Gnomo and William head next

to a hill near the village
of Mompantero.

If extraterrestrials handed
knowledge of advanced technology

to the ancient people
of this region,

Gnomo believes it happened here,

and he has located evidence
to prove it.

Look at that.

So...

Right, so this is knowledge
way beyond

what we normally think of the

- neolithic mind being able to grasp.
- Yeah.

BRUCE FENTON:
Finding this triple spiral

at Musinè
is absolutely fascinating.

I suspect that
among its many meanings,

which... most of which
have to do with movement

and energetic flow,
I suspect amongst these

we're also being told something
about Earth energies.

They had a knowledge
of these magnetic forces

and these energies, you know,
something that they perhaps

should not have known
but clearly did.

NARRATOR: Is it possible that the
ancient people of the Susa Valley

received knowledge
of Earth's magnetic forces

from extraterrestrials
that were present

in the region of Mount Musinè?

But if a technologically
advanced city

really did once exist
in the Susa Valley,

how is it that all evidence
of it disappeared?

Some researchers say
remnants of this lost city

can still be found

in the shadow of Mount Musinè.

NARRATOR: Deeper in the
Susa Valley of Northern Italy,

Gnomo Orzo takes William Henry

to a Roman archaeological site
called Il Maometto.

But what he wants to show him

is something hidden
in the woods nearby

that predates even the earliest
identified Roman ruins.

HENRY:
Wow, Gnomo. Look at this.

Look at this

incredible, incredible platform.

Yeah, huge wheels,

uh, surrounded by a lot
of very ancient walls.

HENRY: You know, I've seen
something like this before in Egypt,

at Abu Gorab,

wheels just like this
on this massive platform.

Quartz crystal embedded.
It's like a landing platform.

ORZO:
Yeah.

NARRATOR: Approximately
ten miles south of Cairo,

the ancient site of Abu Gorab

contains massive circular
alabaster platforms.

Local tradition holds
that this site

is one of the oldest
ceremonial centers on the planet

and that the alabaster platforms
created a harmonic resonance

through sound vibrations
to open the senses

to communicate
with divine energies.

When I came upon this platform
in the middle of this forest,

it took me back to Egypt

where you see massive
stone altars like this,

for example, at Abu Gorab,

that have exactly the same
stone wheels in the center,

and I'm thinking, this proves
the Egyptian connection, too.

This is a-a common
symbolic element

that almost always connects
with extraterrestrials.

NARRATOR:
For William Henry,

the wheels also present
another intriguing possibility.

He believes that they may have
been made to commemorate

the foundational story
of the city of Turin,

in which it is said
that an otherworldly being

called Phaethon

descended from the sky
in a fiery chariot.

In the story, the craft
in which he descends to Earth

is described as having wheels,

but it is also said
that he brought with him

so-called "wheels of knowledge."

The myth tells us that there was

some kind of a craft
that came into this area,

and they describe wheels
that Phaethon left,

wheels of knowledge.

Is that what we have here?

Wheels that match what we saw
with the spirals on the rock

of this extraordinary knowledge

encoding the secrets
of light itself.

- It's an incredible mystery.
- It's the incredible mystery.

Right away I think of the golden
wheels of the-the solar discs

in the Aztec and Inca cultures.

We know that
they were great circles,

and that on them
would be engraved

all sorts of knowledge,
all sorts of information,

astronomy, and other
mythology being coded

into the surface of the disc.

Now, could it be that
at Musinè we have

exactly the same thing
happening,

that we have
this great golden wheel

upon which is
all of this information?

NARRATOR: Might the ancient wheels
carved into the rock at Il Maometto

be just the tip
of an historical iceberg?

A sign of the lost ancient city
buried beneath the ground?

We enter into this valley where,

what do we find,
these ancient myths

of a civilization

that might have had
some extraordinary knowledge

that they're trying to protect,

and we come into here
and look at these walls,

more ancient than ancient Rome.

Yeah.

HENRY:
We've seen Val Camonica

with these incredible depictions
of spacemen on the rocks.

Thousands of years old.
Absolutely amazing.

Then we come through
the gates of Musinè,

where Constantine saw
this flash of light,

the heavens open.

And across the valley
we have Sacra San Michele,

where the monk saw
the light as well.

Extraordinary complex there.

It's telling us that there was
contact in the ancient world

at this place.

For some reason people have been
coming into this valley.

They're attracted
by something here,

for a very long time,
and talking about

these amazing mysteries
and knowledge.

Yeah, like...

There is so much more here
to investigate

than I ever imagined.

NARRATOR: Ancient visitors
sharing the secrets of metallurgy?

Tales of a lost civilization

that once held
advanced knowledge?

And ruins still waiting to be
identified in the Susa Valley?

As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

the area of Mount Musinè
provides overwhelming evidence

that extraterrestrials were
once present here.

But if these otherworldly
visitors helped to establish

a technologically advanced
civilization in the Susa Valley,

what happened to it?

Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest further clues

might be found by examining
strange encounters

that have occurred
on Mount Musinè

in more recent times.

And they point
to the possibility

that the lost city still exists.

NARRATOR:
Northern Italy, 1933.

With the threat of war
casting an ominous shadow

across Europe,

an incredible series
of events unfolds,

all under the supervision
of one of history's

most powerful
and feared leaders,

Benito Mussolini.

In 1933, it's claimed
that a UFO crashed

in the Lombardy region of Italy.

This was apparently an object
around 50 feet in diameter,

like two saucers
joined together.

It was described as being
grayish in color, and metallic.

And apparently it was then taken
by the military

and studied
on the personal orders

of the then-dictator
Benito Mussolini.

NARRATOR: According to some
accounts, the UFO crashed

near the city of Magenta,

just 80 miles northeast
of Mount Musinè.

The craft was found
to be unoccupied,

and unlocking its secrets
became a top priority.

This flying saucer was something
that the Mussolini government

took a lot of interest in.

And so there was
an establishment

of a group of experts
to study this phenomenon.

To study exactly
what it involved, who made it.

And this committee
was called RS/33.

NARRATOR: To lead the
committee, it is said that

Mussolini enlisted
the noted engineer

and famed inventor
of the radio, Guglielmo Marconi.

Mussolini said,
"Find out what it is,

and because it seems to be
so advanced, build one."

And Marconi apparently said,
"Well, we can't.

"We can't figure it out.

"There is a technology here
over and above

anything we possess."

And that only left
the conclusion that this,

for want of a better term, was

an extraterrestrial spacecraft.

NARRATOR: Was a crashed
extraterrestrial craft really recovered

by the Italian government
in 1933?

And if so,
is it merely coincidence

that it happened so close
to Mount Musinè?

Let's just suppose
that the common thread here

is actually Earth energies...

which the UFOs know about

and use, perhaps,

to draw the energy
that they need.

So, might we be dealing
with not just visitation

but a more permanent facility?

MARTELL: So, when we look
at Mount Musinè and this energy,

we wonder if there isn't
something happening

below ground as well.

Could this be a location
of some type of secret base?

NARRATOR:
A secret alien base?

Could this be the reason why
so many strange events

have been reported
in this area for centuries?

And might it also explain
what happened

to the lost city?

Does it still exist
inside the mountain?

As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

the most compelling
evidence of all may be found

by examining an incident
that happened

not above Mount Musinè
but on its slopes.

December 8, 1978.

Two hikers are on Mount Musinè

when they witness a strong
and blinding light

that seems to envelop
the mountain summit.

Curious, one of the men
approaches the light

and vanishes into thin air.

When he turns up again,

he is dazed, confused,
he's apparently in shock.

He has a scalded leg.

And when he comes around,
he relays this account

of how he was taken on board
this craft.

NARRATOR: Immediately following
this terrifying ordeal,

both hikers come down
with a sever case

of conjunctivitis,
an inflammation or infection

of the membrane
that lines the eyelid

and covers the whites
of the eyes.

So it would seem that they were
in contact with some kind

of radiation that ultimately
affected their health,

in a sense.

And this is a story that occurs
over and over again

in UFO lore.

POPE: When we look at this incident
and some of the previous ones,

what are the themes?

Fire in the sky.
Energy.

Scalding. Burning.

It's all about power.

Are these sightings being caused
because there are, perhaps,

underground facilities, bases?

And if that's true,
maybe it's not just one base

but a network of bases
in that area.

NARRATOR: If extraterrestrials
have remained on Earth

for thousands of years,

secretly operating from bases

hidden throughout Italy's
Susa Valley,

why haven't they left?

Ancient astronaut theorists
believe that the most recent

activity to be reported
on Mount Musinè may suggest

that the answer
will soon be revealed.

Corio, Italy, 20 miles north
of Mount Musinè.

June 6, 2018.

At 11:00 p.m., the residents
of this small town

are startled by the sight
of two F-16 fighter jets.

They appear to be in pursuit
of a giant orb of light

passing rapidly overhead
in the night sky.

Government officials
later claim that the object

was nothing more than a drone.

But the local townspeople
who witnessed the craft

claimed that it appeared to be
nearly 200 feet in diameter,

and that the low-flying jets
were chasing the object

at such extreme velocity,
it shook their windows.

POPE: So, again,
this sighting has to be fit in

with all these other pieces
of the puzzle.

All these other sightings
over the years

in this exact same area,

right back from the day
of Constantine

through to the Italian Air Force
chasing UFOs.

Of all the hundreds
of UFO conferences

I've attended over the years,

I've only ever once been to one

where a delegation
of military officers

have arrived in uniform

and actually given
a presentation.

That conference took place
in San Marino,

and the officers were
from the Italian Air Force.

There's something about
this area that's important,

but we don't know
what it is yet.

When we try to come
to a conclusion or a summation

about what is going on in Italy,

going back from prehistoric
times to modern times,

the common element is: The gods
came to this very specific place

because of something
at Mount Musinè.

Something either in the mountain

or something that was
placed there by them.

NARRATOR: Some ancient
astronaut theorists believe

that it is not just
Mount Musinè,

but also Mount Pirchiriano,

where the Sacra di San Michele
was erected,

and other peaks throughout
the Italian Alps

that are hiding secret
alien bases.

CHILDRESS: Perhaps these mountains
are like outposts or embassies

where the extraterrestrials
are active,

they have their technology.

Craft are coming and going

from these secret
mountain bases.

And part of their agenda is
to contact people,

to influence them.

So this is, perhaps,
what these mountains are about.

This is why these incredible
legends and myths

are associated with them.

NARRATOR: Have extraterrestrials
been hiding out in the mountains

of Northern Italy for hundreds

and perhaps even thousands
of years?

Is this the location
of an alien embassy on Earth,

known to high ranking
government officials

throughout the world?

Perhaps the mysterious carvings
found in Val Camonica

represent not only visitors
who came to Earth

in the distant past,

but who are still here,

preparing to reconnect
with humanity once again.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
