Ancient Aliens (2009–…): Season 9, Episode 9 - Aliens and the Civil War - full transcript

Fire!

A people torn apart...

Not a household in the North or the South

was not touched by blood in this conflict.

... and the future of a
nation hanging in the balance.

That union,

for it to fail, that meant
that the concepts of democracy

would fail throughout the world.

The Civil War nearly destroyed
the Great Experiment known

as the United States of America,

but might there have even been
more at stake than we know?



Could it be

that the preservation of the Union

was ensured by extraterrestrial beings?

It's possible that extraterrestrials

have been visiting America
since its foundation

and did steer the outcome of the Civil War.

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 even influenced the outcome

of the American Civil War?

Jackson County, Missouri.

30 years before the Confederate
cannons fired on Fort Sumter,

marking the start of
the American Civil War,

Mormon Church founder Joseph Smith

brought many of his followers here,

declaring this location to be
the site of the New Jerusalem.

He also stirred up controversy

with his comments on slavery

in this long-established slave state.

Joseph Smith... when he takes
his Mormon colony to Missouri,

he actually makes some
statements about slavery.

He taught that the slavery
issue would cause discord.

He also came out and said that the slaves

would eventually rise
up against their masters.

Eight years earlier,

Joseph Smith claimed that a
strange figure named Moroni

came to him in the
night, enveloped in light

and professing to be from
the Pleiades star cluster.

It was also Moroni

who directed him to the golden tablets

that would become the Book of Mormon.

Joseph Smith also reported
that the angel Moroni

continued to visit him

and three others amongst his
congregation also reported similar visits.

According to Smith,

Moroni appeared to him numerous
times over the course of his life...

and in 1832,

he came, bearing an ominous prophecy.

On December 25,

Smith passed this prophecy on to his flock,

"Wars will shortly come to pass,

beginning at the rebellion
of South Carolina,

which will eventually terminate in
the death and misery of many souls.

For behold,

the Southern States shall be
divided against the Northern States."

There are some people that
say this is a prophecy,

this is a vision by Smith.

Whatever way it was, it really did
portend what came about in the 1860s.

What we're seeing

is a human-looking being

with brilliant light coming off of it,

who conveyed an intelligent
message to Joseph Smith.

There are some speculations
that Joseph Smith was in fact

visited by an advanced
extraterrestrial being.

Did Joseph Smith

really receive a prophecy

that predicted the coming of the Civil War?

And if so, how did an otherworldly entity

know that the war would begin in South
Carolina nearly 30 years in advance?

Is it possible that the angel Moroni, this

perhaps extraterrestrial being,

was very concerned about
the Civil War, and that's why

it gave Joseph Smith

an advanced prophetic
glimpse into what was coming?

Was this another one of
the efforts to intervene

and to try to steer our history

towards the most favorable outcome,

perhaps not just for us

but also for the
extraterrestrials themselves?

But Joseph Smith

is not the only person who is said

to have been visited
by an otherworldly being

foretelling of a future Civil War.

Stories have emerged that
during the American Revolution,

in 1777,

George Washington had a similar
encounter at Valley Forge.

The story is, is that,

while at Valley Forge, General Washington

had given his men orders
not to disturb him.

And suddenly, there's a...
a being standing there.

And this being is described
as being extremely luminous.

And next thing we know,

is this being starts
giving Washington a prophecy

about the future of America.

According to the story,

this luminous being
not only gave Washington

a vision of the future United States,

but also warned that the Union
would be tested by Civil War.

Is it possible that both George Washington

and Joseph Smith were visited

by extraterrestrial beings

who somehow knew that the
Civil War would take place?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and suggest even stronger
evidence can be found

with strange encounters that were reported

not by lone individuals,

but by entire communities.

While UFO sightings were
extremely rare before the 1900s,

a number were reported

during the final years
leading up to the war.

One of the best early UFO encounters

is Wilmington, Delaware, from 1860,

where witnesses reported seeing
this vast 200-foot-long object,

flying through the sky.

And it had, like, a
trail of globes or balls

of light bind it.

One of them was actually
ejected from the object.

Now, this was almost like a rocket.

Certainly nobody should have
been flying a rocket in 1860.

An even more striking UFO encounter

was reported in Shreveport, Louisiana,

that same year.

A group of people

saw an enormous craft, 300 yards long,

hovering just above the tallest trees.

This thing was described as having

a color like a glowing red stove.

And out of the center
of this massive object

there were rays, like rays of the sun,

that reached toward the sky.

Incredibly, this thing
was seen for an hour,

without changing at all.

People got a very good look at this thing,

and nobody could even hazard
a guess as to what it was.

Less than a month before
the start of the war,

another major sighting was
reported in New York City.

New York at that time was very different.

It was a cramped, urban setting,

before the age of tall buildings.

In that setting, a witness,
Mrs. T. Richard Kinder,

looked out of an upper window,

in her house on Baxter Street,

and she saw an object in the sky.

She described it as luminous,
glowing, shaped like a cross,

flying in the air. Startled,
she awoke her husband.

He saw the glowing cross, too.

This ongoing presence strongly
suggests that extraterrestrials

were not just taking a backseat
approach to what was happening on Earth,

but they were actively involved
and they were monitoring us.

How is it

that in an era when UFO
sightings were rarely reported,

three mass UFO encounters occurred

within a year of the
start of the Civil War?

Is it possible that extraterrestrials

really did monitor the United
States during this time?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and claim that even stranger than
the encounters leading up to the war

are those that were reported
once the fighting began.

Charleston Harbor, South Carolina.

April 12, 1861.

At 4:30 in the morning,

Confederate cannons fire on Fort Sumter.

Three days later, President
Abraham Lincoln declares

that an insurrection exists

and calls for 75,000 volunteers

to put down the rebellion.

The American Civil War has begun.

People on both sides assumed that
there would be one great battle

that would decide
everything... winner take all...

one great battle fought
somewhere probably between

Richmond and Washington.

But that doesn't happen.

People actually came
out from Washington with

picnic baskets and champagne
to watch the battle.

But this war

would be a horrible war,

a war that no participant
would ever forget.

It cost more American lives

than all other wars combined.

750,000 people, it is now believed,

perished during the war.

The Civil War was felt
everywhere in America,

because it is that war that defines

what type of nation we're going to be.

It was not just the future of the
United States that was at stake.

This was a war

over different philosophies of government,

with the fate of a people

caught in the crossfire.

And according to ancient
astronaut theorists,

there may have been even
more at stake than we know.

New York City.

April 19, 1861.

Responding to President
Lincoln's call to action,

the 7th New York Militia

travels by steamboat
to Annapolis, Maryland.

While en route, they witness

a very strange occurrence in the sky.

While these men and sailors were on board,

they saw what was described as the moon

suddenly soaring clear into the sky,

and around it... clearly defined...

three circles of light.

Now, of course, we know that
it's not possible for the moon

to change position in the sky that way.

And looking at this
sighting, as it was reported,

this would have to be classified as a UFO.

If UFO sightings represent
encounters with alien spaceships,

then it seems certain that UFOS were
watching over America during the Civil War.

Is it possible that the men
of the 7th New York Militia

really did have an encounter
with some type of alien craft,

just days after the start of the Civil War?

And if so, is it a sign

that extraterrestrials had an interest

in this turning point in our history?

There's an intriguing pattern that we see

within UFO reports.

And that's an increase in
sightings when wars break out.

The First World War, Second World
War, Vietnam, the Korean War...

they all had their UFO incidents.

And another example is
the American Civil War.

It could be that

aliens might simply be interested
in observing historical events.

It's also possible that

extraterrestrials might be trying
to influence the course of events

or simply to warn people in some way.

While there were numerous UFO
sightings reported during the Civil War,

even more common are stories of soldiers

encountering strange
beings on the battlefield.

Also reported, were bizarre
dreams and premonitions,

some of which proved to be prophetic.

One of the most notable was
published in a Kansas newspaper

on March 27, 1862.

According to the account,

General George B. McClellan,

chief of the Union Armies,

was visited in his sleep

by the ghostly figure of George Washington,

who warned him that Confederate forces

were closing in on the capital.

The vision reportedly caused McClellan

to change his plans
and fend off the attack.

There are many soldiers and
politicians during the Civil War

that have premonitions,
premonitions of death.

Nathaniel Lyon at the
Battle of Wilson's Creek

actually said, "Today I will die."

And he is going to be shot in the chest,

during the battle shot in
trying to rally his men.

But what can explain

all of these bizarre incidents?

Ancient astronauts theorists suggest

that the strange dreams and UFO sightings

are evidence that
extraterrestrials were, in fact,

present in America during the Civil War.

It would seem that throughout the
history of this planet, certain

civilizations and nations

have been watched very carefully
by the extraterrestrials and...

and nurtured by them.

And in ancient times, this could
well have been the Egyptians

and the Chinese and the Sumerians.

And really, in our own era

it's the United States of America

that is... is the country
that these extraterrestrials

are the most interested in.

Could it be that extraterrestrials
took an interest in the success

of the United States of America?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say the answer may lie

with the man who was tasked

with preserving the Union: Abraham Lincoln.

Springfield, Illinois.

November 7, 1860.

The morning after hearing
the triumphant news

that he has been elected
president of the United States,

Abraham Lincoln wakes up from a deep sleep

and gazes into a full-length
mirror in his bedroom

and has a startling vision.

He saw two images of himself in the mirror.

One face was healthy and well.

The other was a pale, ghostly image of it.

He got up,

looked at the mirror, checked it,
to see if there was something wrong,

then he laid down again thinking,
"Well, it's just my imagination."

Thinking his mind was
playing tricks on him,

Lincoln checked the mirror a second time.

Each time, his two faces confronted him,

one five times paler than the other.

Lincoln told his wife
Mary about the vision.

Lincoln relied on Mary quite a bit.

When he told her about the vision,

she became deathly afraid, because

she interpreted it to mean

that he would have two terms as president.

One he would be healthy and well,

and the second term,

he would die in office.

If the ghostly reflection in the
mirror was not a hallucination,

then what was it?

It's not too big of a stretch to think that

perhaps President Lincoln
was somehow influenced

by otherworldly beings
during the course of the war.

It was that important.

It took on immense cosmic significance.

Was Abraham Lincoln actually
able to receive messages

from an extraterrestrial realm

that helped him anticipate the future?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and point out that the president himself

believed he was the
instrument of a higher power.

Abraham Lincoln is such a
mystery still to us even though

dozens and dozens and dozens of
books have been written about him.

But Lincoln himself was
something of a mystic.

I think he had a belief
in the supernatural.

At least three different
times during the war,

he told friends that he had had a dream

about being on a boat

with no rudder, with no sail,
with no tiller. It's adrift.

He is powerless to steer it,

and it's heading toward a shore.

Every time he had that dream,

something important happened
during the war, mainly the battles.

Antietam, Stones River,
Shiloh, Gettysburg...

Is it really possible that Abraham Lincoln

was given premonitions about the
war by extraterrestrial beings?

Could he have been chosen
because he represented

the best hope for preserving the
Union and ensuring the continuation

of the Great American Experiment?

Abraham Lincoln saw the United States

as this great experiment in democracy.

That for it to fail,

that meant that the concepts of
democracy would fail throughout the world.

In addition to his own premonitions,

some say that Lincoln may
also have been influenced

by the visions of a Spiritualist
named Nettie Colburn.

In December of 1862,

during the darkest days of the Civil War,

Nettie became a spiritual
advisor for Mary Todd Lincoln,

who was a devout believer in mysticism.

She claimed to have attended
s?ances with Lincoln multiple times

and, while in a trance, claimed
to have advised him on the war.

Now, proving that is sometimes difficult,

but in my research, I did
find, on several points,

Nettie's story does check out.

According to Nettie's autobiography,

otherworldly beings used her

to communicate with President
Lincoln during s?ances

and even advised him to issue
the Emancipation Proclamation.

And another mystic, J.B. Conklin,

claimed these voices actually
dictated to the president

a first draft of the historic document.

Things that not only Nettie did,

but other people in the
Spiritualist movement did,

was they were giving him messages

about how important the
Emancipation Proclamation was,

and it was something that Lincoln
took as divine sort of guidance.

And so it appears to have played

a role in his decision making.

It's quite possible that,
at one of these events,

he received messages
from otherworldly beings,

possibly even extraterrestrial beings,

in order to preserve the Union

as part of this immense
master plan for humanity.

What that leads us to is

the possibility that some
of the same extraterrestrials

that were being seen in
numerous UFO sightings

before and during the Civil War

were able to form a
direct contact to Lincoln,

through Nettie Colburn Maynard,

to give him the messages that he needed

to be able to steer the
outcome of the Civil War.

Was Abraham Lincoln

literally destined for greatness?

Might aliens have been guiding him

through his dreams and
visions during the Civil War?

If so,

what was their purpose?

Perhaps the answer can be found
with an incredible encounter...

Fire!

... at Gettysburg.

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

July 2, 1863.

Two years and three
months into the Civil War,

337,000 men lie dead,

over 13 times as many casualties
as the United States suffered

during the Revolutionary War.

But after so much bloodshed,

neither side has a clear advantage.

The majority of the fighting

has taken place in the Southern states,

but Confederate General Robert E. Lee,

who is gaining a reputation
as being invincible,

decides to make an aggressive move

and advance into Union territory.

Robert E. Lee decides that
he will take the war north,

for a couple of reasons. Number one,

it's gonna relieve pressure on the farmers
in Virginia, who are trying to grow crops,

feed themselves, feed the army.

And second, politically,

uh, he knows that there is a lot of
pressure on Abraham Lincoln to win this war.

Northern voters, Northern politicians

are angry that this war
is carrying on so far.

If Lee won here,

the door to Washington,

and ultimately victory, was open.

While the Confederates
were massing for attack,

reinforcements from the 20th
Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment

were called in, commanded by
Colonel Joshua Chamberlain.

Chamberlain rushes his troops
towards the Little Round Top.

He comes to a crossroads,

and he said there was an eerie figure,

in a tri-corner hat pointing
the way to the Little Round Top,

the right road to take.

And he said it looked
like George Washington.

George Washington?

Could this ghostly vision
have been merely an illusion?

Although the story sounds incredible,

Secretary of War Edwin Stanton

appointed a member of his staff

to speak with a number of the
men who experienced this vision,

and it is said that he
gathered unwavering testimony

claiming that the encounter was real.

In the end, the 20th Maine

would repel the Confederate
attack on Little Round Top

and save the day for the Union Army.

So you have to ask yourself:

did extraterrestrials in some way

influence this battle...

by disguising themselves as

a familiar figure like George Washington,

and then guiding the
troops to a certain position

where they knew this would
turn the tide of the battle?

It would seem that
something like this happened.

Is the story of George Washington

appearing to soldiers at Gettysburg

the ultimate proof that alien
beings really did intervene

to influence the outcome of the Civil War?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and suggest that the
United States of America

has had a connection with extraterrestrials

since its very beginning.

We do have clues that

Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin
Franklin and George Washington

all believed in extraterrestrial life.

Thomas Jefferson gave a famous lecture

about the unusual UFO sighting by
a person named William Dumbarton,

in Baton Rouge, in 1800.

Benjamin Franklin wrote, in
his Poor Richard's Almanac,

about life on other worlds and,

apparently, was a believer in that.

And George Washington had
a very famous angelic vision

at Valley Forge,

and so it would seem
that George Washington,

Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin

were very much believers in
extraterrestrials and life on other planets.

Is it possible that extraterrestrials

have been guiding the course of
America since its very beginning,

and intervened in the Civil War to ensure

that the Great Experiment would continue?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

further evidence that an otherworldly force

was present at this point
in history, can be found

by examining a recurring
dream that Abraham Lincoln had

of his own death.

He sees a body on the catafalque

wrapped in mourning clothing.

The body's being guarded by Union soldiers.

He asks one of the soldiers,

"Who is dead in the White House?"

And one of the solder says,

"It's the president.

He's been killed by an assassin."

He believed that he was uniquely
suited to become president,

to carry the country through
the great crisis of disunion.

And he, part and parcel with
that belief in his destiny

to become president, was his
belief that he would be slain.

Abraham Lincoln is said to have had,

uh, prophetic dreams, visions.

If aliens are coming here to visit Earth,

certainly it seems reasonable to wonder

if they might have tried to
influence the course of events

through Abraham Lincoln,

uh, possibly through
his dreams and visions.

Could it be that extraterrestrials

were the source of this recurring dream,

and that they were testing Abraham Lincoln

to see if he would fulfill his destiny,

even knowing that it would
lead to an early grave?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

that further clues can be found

by examining the life of one of the war's

most extraordinary soldiers:

Ambrose Bierce.

Kennesaw Mountain, Georgia.

June 23, 1864.

While leading a skirmish
line on Confederate troops,

Union Army lieutenant Ambrose Bierce

is shot in the left temple by a sniper.

Miraculously,

the bullet travels around
the side of his skull

and ends up behind his left ear,

leaving Bierce injured but alive.

After being shot in the head,

Bierce went on to become one of the most
prominent authors of the post-Civil War era,

and was a pioneer of science fiction...

influencing such writers as Ray Bradbury,

Roald Dahl,

and Kurt Vonnegut.

But could his genius as a writer

have been, in some way, connected
to the injury to his head?

In the case of brain injuries,

when you suddenly, uh,
display a new ability,

I'm not so sure that it's
something that was there all along

and you're uncovering...

more so that it's a new ability;
re-circuitry, if you will.

We're all disconnected from our core,

unaware of the greater
realm of pure potential,

and Ambrose Bierce may
have gotten the right nudge

to give him an interesting
window into that realm,

allowing him to get closer to it
than most of us normally ever do.

Ambrose Bierce is best
known for short stories

that involve paranormal incidents,

strange disappearances,

and incongruencies of time.

One of the most famous

is "An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge,"

in which a Confederate sympathizer

is being hanged for treason.

At the moment of the man's hanging,

the rope breaks and he
falls into the water below.

Escaping to dry land,

the hero travels through a seemingly
unending forest to his home 30 miles away.

But once he arrives and
runs towards his wife,

he feels a searing pain in his neck.

Suddenly he was back on the bridge again

with a noose around his neck, and then

he fell,

he was executed, he hung by the neck.

About face!

And Bierce was trying to tell us

that alternate realities exist...

alternate worlds...

and we see this pattern all throughout
his writings, where he believed that

inter-dimensional travel was a possibility.

Another short story that Bierce wrote

for The San Francisco Examiner, in 1888,

titled "The Difficulty
of Crossing a Field,"

is reportedly based on an actual event

that occurred in Selma,
Alabama, in July of 1854.

It was about a plantation owner, a farmer

who, in the broad daylight,
sitting on his porch,

talking to his neighbors,

walked across the road into the field

and suddenly disappeared

with a number of witnesses watching.

So as they walked over

to the point where he disappeared,
they could still hear his voice faintly,

but they couldn't see him.

He never returned.

Ambrose Bierce interviewed the locals

who searched for the lost farmer,

as well as scientists with
theories on the disappearance.

One claimed the farmer had
entered another dimension.

Is it possible

that Ambrose Bierce was, in fact,
contacted by extraterrestrials?

This is why luminous beings
appear in his fiction,

and this is why vanishings
appear in his fiction.

Could it be that the head
injury Ambrose Bierce suffered

allowed him to receive information
from an otherworldly source?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and suggest the strongest evidence
may not be found in his stories

of strange disappearances

but with how he disappeared himself.

In December of 1913,

Bierce left the country and
headed to Chihuahua, Mexico.

He was never seen or heard from again.

It's quite interesting to note that he met

with another famous adventurer,
traveler, an Englishman named

Frederick Mitchell-Hedges.

Mitchell-Hedges was the man who claimed
to discover the first crystal skull,

and that's significant because
they both were interested in

crystals and inter-dimensional subjects.

The last letter, that we know
of, he ever sent to anyone,

was to his secretary that said,

"I go tomorrow to a destination

of which I may not return."

And the theory is he may have gone with
Mitchell-Hedges to the Crystal Cave...

the Crystal Cave being a place that
Mitchell-Hedges believed you could

contact beings from another dimension.

It's possible that extraterrestrials said,

"You helped steer the outcome towards
a more favorable determination.

In the future, people will
be more comfortable with us.

You've set the stage by writing
all these sci-fi stories.

Come live with us.

Come to this place and
we'll meet you there."

Might the stories of Ambrose Bierce

and his strange disappearance

all point to a connection
with extraterrestrials?

And if so,

were these alien beings

simply observing the Civil War

or might they have even intervened?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say the answer might be found

in Washington, DC,

standing high atop

the Capitol Dome.

Washington, DC.

December 2, 1863.

It has been exactly five months
since the Battle of Gettysburg,

and the tides of the Civil War

are beginning to turn in the Union's favor.

At the start of the war,

construction of the giant dome

that would sit atop the Capitol
Building had been halted,

but President Lincoln

convinced Congress to provide
the funding to finish it,

saying the dome would act as a
sign that the Union would go on.

Upon its completion,

a statue was placed on top of it,

with the final section raised to a salute

of 35 guns

answered by the guns of the
12 forts around Washington.

Weighing nearly 15,000 pounds and standing

19 and a half feet tall,

this bronze statue features a woman

with a Native American-style
fringed blanket

thrown over her left shoulder,

and an elaborate headdress
made of eagle feathers

and ringed with stars.

It is called the Statue of Freedom,

and according to ancient
astronaut theorists,

it may represent an extraterrestrial being.

The symbolism they chose is
completely and totally cosmic...

a goddess cloaked in stars,

suggesting she's a
celestial or a star being.

And when you look at it, and even
have the natives explain it to you,

they say things like:

"Oh, yes, these are the star
people coming from the sky."

Is it really possible

that there is a depiction
of an extraterrestrial

standing atop the Capitol Dome?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes

and suggest the evidence
can be found by looking back

to the Founding Fathers.

In the 1730s to the 1760s,

Benjamin Franklin published
a series of pamphlets

he called The Indian Treaties.

One of the best-selling of these pamphlets

chronicled the Iroquois
creation story of the Sky Woman.

Native Americans believed
that the Sky Woman

came to Earth when there... there
was nothing here but water and animals

and that she was the mother
of the very first human beings.

Native Americans had beliefs in

people who lived in space.

Many of the Founding Fathers
believed in the plurality of worlds.

And these ideas, these stories

would have matched up very
well with their concepts about

plurality of worlds and
extraterrestrials from space.

You have to wonder

if there wasn't some kind of
extraterrestrial influence here.

And did they have some
connection to these star people?

Was this basically a message for aliens?

Did Abraham Lincoln and the Union leaders

erect the Statue of Freedom

as a tribute to star
beings that they believed

might be watching over the country?

Were they reinstating a
symbol of our cosmic heritage

during the time of our greatest crisis?

And if extraterrestrials really did have a
vested interest in the outcome of the Civil War,

are they still watching over the
Great American Experiment today?

It really seems that
extraterrestrials have been

monitoring the United States

since its very inception.

We've seen this, really,

from the American Civil War

and right at the very beginning
of the American Revolution.

And I think that this
is still going on today.

The nurturing of the United
States as an inclusive,

spiritual, and technically advanced country

is very important to the extraterrestrials

and ultimately for the entire planet Earth.

It's possible that extraterrestrials

have been visiting America
since its foundation

and have been, in fact, steering
the outcome this whole time.

And why might they want to do that?

You would want to see society moving
in a direction of greater freedom,

greater openness, greater acceptance,

so that, in time, it allows them

to have a much more warm welcome

than they otherwise would have.

There is every reason to believe

that extraterrestrials
are still watching over us

and are having a key impact

in the events that unfold on Earth today.

Is it possible that extraterrestrials

really were present here on
Earth during the Civil War?

If so,

were they simply passive observers,

waiting to see if our fragile
democracy could survive this test?

Or did they take an active role

in order to preserve the Union?

Perhaps the Great American Experiment

is part of a larger cosmic agenda,

and once we fully realize
the ideals put forth

by men like George Washington
and Abraham Lincoln,

we will finally come face-to-face
with our alien ancestors.
