Ancient Aliens (2009–…): Season 5, Episode 4 - Destination Orion - full transcript

A pattern of stars

repeated in monuments
throughout the ancient world...

It's a global phenomenon.

There might be a celestial plan.

Coordinates for a celestial constellation

mapped out 7,000 years
ago in sand and stone...

The builders clearly possessed

some advanced knowledge
of the constellations.

And clues that long-lost civilizations may

have had contact with travelers
from this cluster of stars.

Orion is so important to all of these



ancient civilizations.
Somehow this is linked to where

we came from and where we're going.

Millions of people around
the world believe we have

been visited in the past by
extraterrestrial beings.

What if it were true?
Did ancient aliens really help

to shape our history?
And if so, might they have left

behind signs revealing mankind's
ultimate destination...

in the constellation... of Orion?

January 11th, 2006.

The Hubble Space Telescope

captures a never-before-seen
image of the Orion Nebula...

a massive star formation 1,500
light-years from Earth.

The panoramic photo reveals
more than 3,000 stars in various



stages of life and gives
researchers new insight into the

formation of celestial objects
and planetary systems.

According to modern scientists,
it is here, in this mysterious

cloud of dust and gas, that
stars and planets may have been

created billions of years ago.

Astronomers usually refer to it as M42...

not such a sexy name...
but it's a stellar nursery.

It's where stars are being born.

And so this part of Orion gets
a lot of study by astronomers.

You have this rapid star-forming region.

You have these young stars,
and very likely many, many young

planets that also form out of
that gas and dust that collapsed

to make those stars in the Orion Nebula.

Now, stars being born obviously means that

certain things are happening
there on a level which we simply

don't really understand.

As seen from Earth, the
Orion constellation is one

of the most prominent star
formations in the night sky,

and has been revered by ancient
cultures around the globe for

thousands of years.
Named after the Greek demigod

Orion in the 8th century B.C.,
when connected, the stars form

the head, shoulders,
belt and feet of a man.

Orion is probably one of
the most recognizable

constellations in the sky, maybe
only second to the Big Dipper.

It's near the equator, and in
the Northern Hemisphere it's

visible in the winter.
It has a lot of bright stars and

a big square that's the body of Orion.

The three major stars
in the constellation are

Alnilam, Alnitak, and Mintaka.
These are the belt stars of Orion.

Most people recognize the
constellation by these three

stars right in a row.

According to Greek mythology,
Orion was a giant

born with superhuman abilities,
a mighty hunter who killed

animals with an unbreakable bronze club.

When the Greek hero was
eventually slain, he was placed

among the stars for eternity.

His father was, in fact, Poseidon.

So he knew a lot about oceans,
and Poseidon apparently taught

Orion how to walk on water.

There's another story about him being

so big that when he walks
through the ocean, his head and

shoulders are above the ocean,
so you get a sense of his size.

All of our astronomical bodies
are named after major figures

from Greek mythology.

We have these wonderful texts
that describe stars and how it

is that they got their names.

To write about the stars,
to write about the heavens,

to write about the bodies in space,
is essentially to be talking

about the realm of the gods.

Now the constellation of Orion in all

traditions, and particularly the
Egyptian tradition, is usually

regarded as a striding man.

The Greeks saw him as a hunter, and
many other cultures saw him as a giant.

Sometimes we have him
depicted as smiting the enemy.

Sometimes he is trampling
across a serpent.

But in each case we know that Orion
is depicted as a human being.

It is entirely possible that a character

like Orion was based on
an actual human being,

because we have to keep
in mind that, for the Greeks,

what they call "mythology" or "myth"...

the mythic past... was just
older than ancient history.

Is it possible, as ancient
astronaut theorists

suggest, that Orion was named for
an actual flesh-and-blood being?

Or might there be another,

more profound reason this demigod
and the stars that form his body

were worshipped?

Some researchers believe the
answers can be found

by looking at the origin
stories of a civilization

that thrived in the Nile
River Valley more than

2,000 years before the Greeks.

According to Egyptian mythology,

the gods descended from the belt
stars of Orion and Sirius,

the brightest star in the sky.

The ancient Egyptians

believed that from Sirius and
Orion came beings in the form of

humans... Osiris and Isis... and
instigated the human race.

Metaphorically, it very much
matches what we know from

astrophysics. We know that
we are the product of stars.

We're literally made of star stuff.

Sirius and Orion are critically important

because they represent Isis and
Osiris, the god and goddess from

which all of Egyptian
civilization and, ultimately,

all of human civilization,
supposedly sprang.

So to the ancient Egyptians,
Osiris was Orion... that

constellation actually was a
literal living embodiment of

the great god Osiris, who was
always over our heads, always

looking down upon us, and always
judging us, because in the end

he would be the guy that would
decide whether we got eternal

life or whether we were recycled
back through the spiritual mulch

and have to start all over again.

The ancient Egyptians were very clear that

Orion was linked with creation,
specifically magic creation.

And so if we accept what our
ancestors were saying,

mythology all of a sudden
becomes more interesting,

because all of a sudden we see
the truth as to what Orion

really stands for.
And it has all to do with

creation, magical creation.

And creation in those days
was linked with the gods.

Orion and Osiris are the
same in ancient Egypt.

The Egyptians believed that Osiris
will return from Orion one day.

Every culture in antiquity had
the knowledge of somebody who

returns one day. We are still
expecting the return of someone.

Are the creation

stories of the Egyptians
actually documentation of

mankind's otherworldly
origins, as some ancient

astronaut theorists suggest?
And if so, might they have left

behind more evidence,
perhaps written in stone?

According to the pyramid texts...
a collection of religious

records carved into the walls of
pyramids dating back to 2400 B.C....

the ancient Egyptian pharaoh
Unas ruled for 30 years

before making his final voyage
to the star system Orion.

Unas, who, according to the pyramid texts,

apparently became great by
eating the flesh of his mortal

enemies and then slaying and
devouring the gods themselves.

Some say that this was based on
a belief in contiguous magic,

whereby consuming the flesh
of great people would bring

inheritance of their powers.

After devouring the gods and
absorbing their souls and

powers, Unas journeyed
through the sky to Orion.

Might the writings in the
pyramid texts actually

be more than myth, as some ancient
astronaut theorists believe?

And could the pharaoh Unas
actually have traveled into space?

If so, how?

When you listen to the ancient Egyptians,

they clearly tell us that the
purpose of the Great Pyramid was

not as a tomb, but rather as a
sort of a womb of transformation.

The pharaoh would enter into
it as a man, and through the

process of the technology that
the pyramid is built for,

the pharaoh is transformed into
a god, so that now he is an

ascended being who is capable
of traveling into the stars,

and also returning.

They seem to have

wanted to create a kind of
an ancient launching pad,

a sort of Cape Canaveral of the pharaohs.

The idea was to build the
hardware in order to somehow get

the soul of the king going to these stars.

Is it possible that the
pharaohs of ancient Egypt

were able to travel back and
forth to the stars of Orion by

using the pyramids?

According to ancient astronaut

theorists, the proof can be found
by examining an elaborate

series of air shafts embedded
within the Great Pyramid,

air shafts that point directly
to the stars of Orion and Sirius.

There is definitely a lot of scientific

data that has shown that the
pyramid and the entire Giza

Plateau, the alignments of the
air shafts and the king's and

the queen's chamber,
are all pointing to Orion.

And so that may be a message
to us that that's where these

extraterrestrials were from.

The whole concept that the three pyramids

at Giza are in a special

alignment of Orion's Belt
is very interesting.

And this would seem to indicate
that Orion was the destination

for the star gate that they
were building at Giza.

Why does the Great Pyramid
have air shafts that

point to Orion?
Is it possible they served as a

kind of intergalactic gateway
between the Earth and Orion?

And if so, might this be further
proof of our extraterrestrial origins?

There are those who believe

clues can be found in the
middle of the Nubian Desert,

where researchers have discovered
what may be the world's oldest

megalithic complex pointing to Orion.

Southern Egypt.

500 miles south of Cairo, on a
desolate plain in the eastern

region of the Sahara Desert,
lies the mysterious

archaeological site known as Nabta Playa.

Discovered by a team of
scientists in 1974, researchers

believe the megalithic stones
scattered here were once part of

a vast and complex ritual center
for an ancient civilization that

thrived from 6400 to 3400 B.C.,

just before the rise of the Egyptians.

We knew that there were
many prehistoric sites in

the Sahara, in this part
of the Egyptian desert.

What Nabta Playa is different
is that it wasn't a settlement.

It was clearly a ceremonial site,
and a very intriguing one.

And it had... strange things.

One of the centerpieces is a
circle that has been called the

"mini Stonehenge of the desert."

For more than three decades,
this circular stone

structure and its intricate
alignment to the belt stars of

the Orion constellation have
baffled archaeologists.

The builders of Nabta
Playa seem to be aware

of a level of physics and
understandings of mathematics

that they interline into these
structures which clearly say

they possessed some advanced
knowledge of the constellations.

Engineer Robert Bauval
and astrophysicist Thomas

Brophy have studied the
configuration of this mysterious

monument for more than ten years.

In their book Black Genesis,
they suggest the stone circle is

a star-viewing diagram that
aligns with the belt stars of

Orion at the summer solstice.

The calendar circle is this smaller stone

arrangement, and the megalithic
alignments point to stars.

Now, the calendar circle, we
think, represents a diagram that

teaches how the sky moves long-term.

What we're looking at right here
is a small mockup of the actual

calendar circle of Nabta Playa.
These actual stones would come

up to about your knee, and the
whole circle would be about 12

feet across or so, and there are
these two sets of gates on the

outer parts of the circle.
And this gate is pointing

towards where the summer
solstice sun rises.

According to mainstream scientists,

radiocarbon dating indicates the
site was constructed nearly

7,000 years ago.
Taking this time frame into

account, Brophy studied the
positioning of the gates and the

center stones, and discovered
that it was then, in 4900 B.C.,

when three of the center stones
lined up precisely with three of

the brightest stars in the
constellation of Orion.

If we look up in the sky
at that time, these three

stones right here, they represent
the Orion's Belt stars

exactly as they were seen at that time.

So the idea is, the stones represent
a map of the stars in the sky.

Is it really possible, as some researchers

believe, that the stones of
Nabta Playa correspond with the

alignment of Orion's Belt as
observed just before the summer

solstice 7,000 years ago?

If so, why... and how...
would ancient man

have created such an advanced
diagram of this constellation?

Mysteriously, the inhabitants of Nabta
Playa vanished around 3400 B.C.

Some researchers believe
they migrated 60 miles east,

where Egypt's Nile Valley civilizations
emerged in the 4th century B.C.

The astronomy from Nabta Playa

was exactly the same astronomy
of the pyramid builders.

So suddenly what we thought was

origin to the pharaohs was
pushed back now to these

prehistoric people
thousands of years before.

We call them the star people...
we have no idea where they came

from... that lived in the Sahara
when it was fertile for

thousands of years before
the pyramid builders.

We went to try and trace
their origins, and we've taken

the track all the way now to the
extreme southwest of Egypt.

We've actually seen those
people, believe it or not.

They left us drawings in caves.
And some of them look pretty strange.

They were very tall, slender
people with a very strange head.

Now, whether this is artistic
representation, I don't know,

but they're certainly very mysterious.

Who are the star people,

and why was the exact location
of Orion so important to them?

Were they simply another advanced
ancient civilization lost to time,

or could it be possible that the star
people of Nabta Playa were literally

visitors from another world?
Perhaps a deeper understanding

of Orion can be found here in
the ruins of one of the most

astrologically, astronomically
advanced ancient civilizations.

Central Mexico.
Just 35 miles northeast

of Mexico City lie the ruins of
Teotihuac?n, an ancient city

that sprawled seven square miles
and was once inhabited

by more than 150,000 people.

Researchers believe the
impressive structures here...

including two large pyramids
and a temple...

were built by the Mayans
in the second century B.C.,

and like the Egyptian pyramids
of Giza, the monuments

point directly to the three
stars of Orion's Belt.

And this is not coincidental.
The layout of the pyramids

of Teotihuac?n are in the
formation of Orion's Belt.

The Mayans are very specific
about Orion's Belt.

They say it is a point of creation.

It is said that in 3114 B.C.,
the gods came from the heavens

to Earth in a convention,

and this convention
occurred in Teotihuac?n.

You'll find many of these so-called Orion

correlations in many countries.

Surprisingly some of these
ancient structures not only form

the image of Orion on the
ground, but they are, ah, based

on units of measurements
that somehow correlate.

There seems to be some sort of link.

It's a very complex subject
and it's very intriguing.

But how could there be
similar structures pointing

to Orion built by civilizations
located thousands of miles apart?

Was it just a cosmic coincidence
that both the Egyptians and the

Mayans revered the same
constellation, or could there

really be a connection between
Orion and the birth of mankind?

There might be a celestial
plan developed by an

ancient civilization that's long gone,

and that's why we find all
these Orion correlations in

various spots all over the globe...

because a single source at
one time distributed

this kind of mythological
material all over the world.

It's possible that the
structures that we see on Earth

that are aligned with Orion
were created that way because

the extraterrestrials that came from Orion

directed the builders to do that.

They would do that so
that we would remember

the place where these
beings came from and also

to align ourselves with the
energies coming from Orion.

Could these monuments in Egypt and Central

America really have been built
to commemorate mankind's

celestial origins, as some
researchers suggest?

Or is it possible there is an
even more profound explanation

for these advanced alignments...
perhaps not only to honor

our star ancestors but also to
reconnect with them in the future?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and that the ultimate proof
can be found half a world away

in an area that has become known
as the cradle of civilization.

Northern Iraq, 1849.

On the eastern bank of the Tigris
River, near the city of Mosul,

a team of archaeologists
from the British Museum

discovers thousands of clay tablets
containing cuneiform script

they believe to have been
written by Babylonian priests

in the seventh century B.C.

Among the tablets found
were two mysterious relics

that have become known as the
Babylonian star catalogues.

According to translations
of the ancient text,

these tablets describe
the precise movements

of various celestial bodies,
now known as the zodiac.

We know so much about the history of

Babylonia because of the, the
excavation and deciphering of

huge numbers of these cuneiform texts.

They were steeped in a religious view
of life, and intrinsic to their religion

was devotion to the gods of the planets,

the different constellations.

So this was what we call
the cosmic religion.

According to some researchers,
these clay tablets

provide proof that the ancient
civilization of Babylon obtained

celestial knowledge from star travelers.

The Babylonian star
catalogues are an interesting

collection of information with
accurate mathematical equations,

distance between planets,
esoteric knowledge that

a primitive civilization
really shouldn't have.

It really starts to raise the
question as to how they got this

information and what
they were using it for.

Was it possibly given to them
by extraterrestrials that they

claim were gods?

Like many other ancient cultures,

the Babylonians describe Orion as both
a constellation and a supreme being.

In their writings Orion is referred
to as the "Loyal Shepherd of Heaven"

and the "Chief God of Heavenly Realms."

Might these records actually

provide more evidence connecting
ancient man to otherworldly beings?

For the Babylonians

this constellation of Orion was
called Sipazi Ana, which means

"the shepherd of Anu."
Usually we would translate that

"the shepherd of Heaven" because
Anu was seen as the god of Heaven.

If we go back to even further,

we find an earlier depiction of
Orion as in a birdlike form and

was referred to as a messenger.

The figure of a bird was

located on the stones behind
the figure of the shepard.

His position may indicate that
he was bringing messages back

and forth from Earth to Orion.

Now the real question is,
how did he do this?

Is this all meant to
be taken symbolically?

Is it possible that what we have
here is a very rudimentary

description of a type of
interstellar communication device?

Are the Babylonian star

catalogues potentially even
documenting an ancient

extraterrestrial space station
orbiting the earth,

inhabited by ancient aliens
who came from Orion?

Is it possible the Babylonian
gods were actually

extraterrestrial messengers from Orion?

And if so, might these
otherworldly visitors have

created mankind here, in the
Fertile Crescent, where

civilization historically started
more than 5,000 years ago.

The Babylonians had a strong

tradition of the origin of
human beings, and it had some

variations, but the basic
principle that you find amongst

the Babylonians is, the gods
wanted to sleep a lot, and they

wanted to eat a lot, and they
got tired of doing the farming

themselves and preparing the food.

And so they created a group of
lesser beings...human beings is

what it was...to do the farming
and so on for them.

On the edge of Mesopotamia, the dawn of

civilization, this was one of
the first spots where ancient

aliens came to begin to seed
civilization on the planet.

Civilization that grew into the
civilization of Sumer and Babylonia.

If you look at the Sumerian
hieroglyphs, the Egyptian

hieroglyphics, the stories of
the Maya, if you look at all

these cultures, what you'll
see is the same story told in

different ways in different languages.

Those who came from the stars
came here, and they started

human civilization.

Are the origin

stories of Babylon located in
the cradle of civilization

the ultimate proof of our divine
connection to the Orion constellation?

And if so, might there
be a profound reason

the stars of Orion's Belt are
located above the navel...

the place on the body
symbolically linked with

the origin of humans, as ancient
astronaut theorists suggest?

Many ancient cultures
point to Orion's Belt

as the gateway for life.
The Mayans, the Egyptians,

all of these various cultures seem
to reference the beginnings of life

and the endings of life transferring
or passing through Orion's Belt.

Is this somehow some
type of seeding of life

that's taking place here on Earth

and a connection with the
Orion's constellation?

It would seem that there
was some awareness

for the ancient peoples, that
they had a sense for Orion being

at the heart of our galaxy.

And I think the next question
which we need to begin

to answer is this.

Is it possible that somehow this
birthing place of stars also

allows us to make a connection
with other creatures with

intelligences somewhere out
there in the universe?

Considering the Orion
Nebula is a nursery of

stars, is it possible the belt
stars of Orion literally mark

the spot in the galaxy where
all life on Earth began?

And if we came from Orion, as
some ancient cultures suggest,

might there be a way to summon the
return of our otherworldly creators?

Ancient astronaut theorists say

yes and point to evidence in an
epic alignment to the stars of

Orion, located in the American Southwest.

Black Mesa.
Northeastern Arizona.

The Native American Hopi tribe
has called these peaks of the

Colorado plateau home for
more than 1,000 years.

High above the Arizona desert,
their reservation, encompassing

more than 1.5 million acres,
consists of 12 villages.

Ancient astronaut theorists have
studied these mysterious sites

for years, discovering what they
consider to be countless pieces

of evidence of extraterrestrial
contact in the ancient past.

According to their research,
both the Hopi landscape and the

tribe's mythology are centered on Orion.

The Hopi migrated all over the Southwest.

After a series of building villages

and abandoning these villages,

they came to these three primary
mesas in Northern Arizona.

They call them first,
second and third mesas.

The Hopi mesas shape Orion's Belt's image.

And it is said that the Hopi
specifically came here because

of the shape.

So we know that the Hopi are extremely
interested in Orion's Belt.

This is the center of their universe.

They say it is a place where they
can make contact with the gods.

According to some researchers,
not only do the

three mesas represent the stars
in Orion's Belt, but when

connected to other Hopi landmarks
throughout the Southwest,

the collective sites map the entire
body of the Orion constellation.

Every major star of the constellation...

it corresponds to a ruin site

or a village that the Hopi
are currently living in.

For instance, the left shoulder
of Orion is a place called Wupatki.

It's north of Flagstaff, Arizona.

And they built this ruin about 1,120 A.D.

They lived there for a century or so.

And then they abandoned this place.

There's another place
called Homolovi Ruin.

It's by Winslow, Arizona.

And this corresponds to the
right shoulder of Orion

and the star Betelgeuse.

The Hopi also settled up
north of the mesas.

This corresponds to the star Rigel.

And there's a whole complex of villages

that corresponds to the
right foot of Orion.

The star is Saiph.
So you have the star mirror...

as above, so below.
That's what the Hopi were trying

to achieve when they built this
pattern, which took about three

centuries to construct.

But how did the

Hopi ancestors know to align
their homes and sacred places so

perfectly with the Orion constellation?

Is it possible that they
received help from star

travelers, as some researchers believe?

According to Hopi myth, the
creator god, Masau'u, directed

the tribe over hundreds of years
as they migrated to the Three Mesas,

the place Masau'u instructed
them to wait for his return.

The god Masau'u was
there at the beginning,

waiting for the Hopi.

This is a very spooky-looking god.

This god has large, round eyes
and a round mouth, and a big,

bulbous head.

He taught the Hopi agricultural ways.

He's frequently seen with
a staff in his right hand,

like the constellation Orion.

Masau'u told the people where
to build their villages.

There was also tales about a certain
star that the Hopi would follow.

Now a star that moves
across a sky and stops

when the Hopi are supposed
to stop and build their village.

That, that sounds like some sort
of extraterrestrial craft

that were guiding the Hopi
across the desert.

This is Fajada Butte where, according to

ancient Hopi legends, their god
Masau'u descended from the sky.

At night, the Orion
constellation would basically

hang in the sky right above this butte.

And the story goes that Masau'u
landed on top of this platform.

So my question is, did some type
of an extraterrestrial visitor

land on top of this butte right
here, in some type of a craft?

And the answer is yes.

Someone or something from
the cosmos descended.

Could the Hopi god of
creation, Masau'u, actually

been an extraterrestrial
traveler from Orion, as ancient

astronaut theorists contend?
And if so, why did this god

instruct the Hopi to migrate
around the Southwest in the

pattern of this constellation?

Is it merely

coincidence that the Hopi
aligned their cities with Orion

just as the ancient Egyptians did?

I don't think so.

I think this is clear evidence that
they were instructed to do so.

The Hopi people were
trying to pay homage to their

star ancestors, the
ancestors that came from

the constellation Orion and gave
them this information about the

constellation and the place
that they came from.

And that's why they built this
pattern on the Arizona desert.

It's more or less a way that
the Hopi could memorialize

the origin of their celestial
ancestors that came from Orion.

The Hopis are saying
that at each point of creation,

each cycle of time, Masau'u
makes contact with them, and

quite often tells them that an end
of a cycle is going to happen.

And then he safeguards
them from destruction.

It is felt that this creator
deity is intricately linked with

Orion and somehow only allows
communication when somehow the

geographical layout
resembles Orion's Belt.

So what they're hoping for now
is really the return of Masau'u.

Is it possible, as
ancient astronaut theorists

believe, that ancient Hopi
legends of the creator god

Masau'u provide further proof of contact

with our extraterrestrial
ancestors from Orion?

And if so, might the Hopi have
been signaling for the return

of these otherworldly beings
through their epic alignment

to the constellation?
Or could there be a more

profound reason their landscape
points to the stars of Orion,

perhaps one that will
ultimately guide mankind back

to our celestial birthplace?

Giza.

Teotihuac?n.

Nabta Playa.

Black Mesa.

Could these ancient monuments,
all aligned to the stars of Orion,

really be linked to each other,
providing clues to our

celestial beginnings?
Or is there perhaps another,

even more profound connection between
mankind and the constelation.

So why is it that the most important

archaeological sites on our planet
resemble the constellation Orion?

I think it's not a coincidence.

And so the question is:
where did this come from?

Was there somehow some
technology available to us

somebody map, at an ancient
point in time, it for them?

Were they given this science and
did they just treasure it and

maintain it until a moment in
time when it was clearly lost?

When you look at these Orion correlations,

the pyramids at Giza, the beliefs
of the Mayans, what it seems to

show is that Orion is where
we came from, it's where the

extraterrestrials came from,
and if we were to go to Orion,

what we would probably find there

is a planet very, very
similar to that of Earth.

Is it really possible, as some ancient

astronaut theorists contend,
there is a planet similar to our

own in the constellation of Orion?

And if so, what... or perhaps who...
would we find in there?

If we did get to the Orion constellation,

or the stars that make up Orion,
especially around the Orion

Nebula star-forming region,
we would find a region of the

galaxy that's kind of similar
to our own but more active.

More stars with planets, likely.
There's still a lot of room for

opinion, because there are still unknowns.

So my own opinion is, yes,
life is probably either

extremely likely elsewhere, or
else we don't have a clue as to

what life really is.
So if we're looking for life

elsewhere in the galaxy, a good place
to start looking would be Orion.

Even with today's technology,

traveling to Orion would take
hundreds of thousands of years.

But might there be another,
more profound mechanism...

perhaps from out of this world...

that would make such an expansive
trip in one lifetime possible?

In 1935, 30 years after his
groundbreaking Special Theory of

Relativity, Albert Einstein
published a collaborative paper

called the "Einstein-Rosen Bridge."

According to this new theory,
bridges, or black holes, exist

in the universe, allowing
shortcuts through space and time.

Today, physicists refer
to them as wormholes.

It's 1,500 light-years
distant about to Orion.

If we were somehow able to
use wormhole technology...

then conceivably we could shorten
the travel time or even make it

instantaneous.
Although the theory even of how

wormholes could work is
still being developed.

Almost anything that's
possible theoretically in

physics exists somewhere in our universe.

So I believe that wormholes
exist somewhere...

but not anywhere close to Earth.

Might advanced
extraterrestrial beings have

traveled here, not in a
spacecraft, but through

an inter-dimensional space-time portal,
as some researchers suggest?

If so, is it possible the
Egyptian pharaohs really

were able to journey to
Orion through their pyramids?

And could there be a way
for us to rediscover

that otherworldly knowledge and
return to our celestial birthplace?

Might the Orion constellation also
be mankind's ultimate destination?

Orion is so important to all of these

ancient civilizations.
We know that they were seen as

points of creations.
We know that the ancient

Egyptians used it in their
passport to the afterlife.

And so we know that this is a
place of origin but also a place

of destination.
They tell us that somehow this

is linked to where we came from
and where we're going.

I think the prevalence of
the myths about Orion and

the alignments with Orion suggest that the

extraterrestrial beings who
came from Orion infiltrated or

instructed various
civilizations throughout time

and left this as evidence
of their appearance.

Thousands of years ago there
were extraterrestrials.

We know this from tradition.

And before the extraterrestrial
disappeared, they told our

ancestors, yes, we will return.

The humans could not
understand what this was.

They looked up to the sky, they
saw the glittering, shining stars.

This is deep, this is endless.

They believed this is Heaven.
The gods are in Heaven, and they

will return one day.

Are the widespread

creation tales surrounding
Orion really just myth?

Or might they be historical
accounts of extraterrestrial

beings that visited Earth in the
distant past, as ancient

astronaut theorists believe?
And is it possible the stars of

Orion actually represent not
only the origin, but the final

destination for mankind?

If so, how will we get there?

And what... or who...
will we find when we arrive?

Perhaps one day we'll
unlock the mystery of Orion

and reveal a celestial origin
within ourselves.
