History of the alien presence on earth
Numerous clues in sacred books, archaeological finds, historical accounts, art and the testimonies of those who say they were abducted by aliens seem to confirm that we are not alone in the universe.
The story of the alien presence on Earth is an ancient one, and the theorists of the Ancient Astronauts know it well.
On several occasions, our planet seems to have been visited by intelligent creatures in possession of advanced technology that allows them to travel at speeds faster than that of light and reach any corner of the universe.
But why? According to the researchers, the reasons may be multiple, and different for each alien species: from exploration to scientific research, from refueling spaceships to holidays (aliens on holiday on Earth! Amazing!), from genetic experimentation to the exploitation of our planet's resources. But what is the truth?
1 – 10000 BC – The Dropa Discs
Found along the Sino-Tibetan border, the Dropa stone disks (The Dopra Stones), according to some, are evidence of an ancient alien crash on earth.
The discs were found in 1938 by Chi Pu Tei, professor of archeology at Peking University, and his students, while exploring a series of strange caves in the Himalayas.
During the expedition they discovered an amazing cave that had remained unexplored until then; when the researchers entered they realized that more than a cave it was a system of artificial and interconnected tunnels.
The walls had been smoothed and appeared crystallized, as if they had been cut by an extreme heat source, while strange inscriptions were engraved on them representing all the planets in our Solar System, including the Sun and the Moon.
Furthermore, the group also found a series of small tombs that contained the skeletons of strange creatures just 1.30 meters tall and with enormous skulls.
They certainly belonged to an unknown race. Next to the tombs, 716 granite discs with a diameter of 35 to 50 cm and with a central hole, one centimeter thick, were found piled up.
The discs on one side were covered in strange hieroglyphics, while on the other they showed a spiral engraving starting from the center and ending towards the outer edge, somewhat similar to modern vinyl music records.
The finds were secretly transferred to Beijing to be studied by a team of scientists led by Professor Tsum Um Nui, who concluded that the discs dated back to 10,000 BC and told the story of an alien group called "Drog-pa" (skin yellow), coming from a planet 12 thousand light years away and who one day arrived with their spaceship on our planet, crashing in the mountains of Tibet.
It seems that the aliens had peaceful intentions. Once they realized that they could no longer leave for their home planet, the aliens were forced to settle on Earth, mixing with the local population. But things did not go as these ancient visitors had thought. Some of them were exterminated by local tribes, frightened by their inhuman appearance.
The local natives say that in very remote times two tribes inhabited this area and that these strange beings were only 1.30 m tall. they had appeared out of nowhere or from the sky, they had descended from the clouds. Eventually, the natives learned to coexist with the few surviving aliens.
2 – 3000 BC – The mystery of the Vimanas
The Sanskrit term "Vimana" indicates those mysterious flying objects described in the Mahabharata and Ramayana, ancient sacred texts of the Hindu religion, dating back 5 thousand years ago. According to the descriptions of these sacred texts, vimanas are capable of both flying in the air, in space and diving underwater. In one of these texts, Valmiki's Ramayana reads verbatim:
“The shining spaceship radiated a flaming glow. Blazing like a bright red fire, Ravana's winged chariot flew. It was like a comet in the sky."
The Vimanas are described as the means of transport of "celestial beings", perhaps Ancient Astronauts who, due to their advanced technology, were mistaken for divinities by our ancestors.
3 – 1300 BC – An X-File in ancient Egypt
Ancient hieroglyphs tell of a supernatural event that occurred in Egypt during the reign of Pharaoh Thutmose III. According to the engravings, a circle of fire appeared in the sky at night, and then multiplied over the next few days. The circles then rose towards the sky, until they disappeared. Is this the first report of a UFO sighting?
4 – 33 AD – The crucifixion of Christ
Various pictorial testimonies show that the crucifixion of Jesus Christ was observed by exceptional spectators. Here we present two testimonies from Byzantine iconography:
In the painting exhibited in the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, Mtskheta in Georgia, strange objects cross the sky during the Crucifixion. Two flying objects can be seen on the sides of the cross, inside which two faces are depicted intent on watching Christ's agony. What are these two objects? And who do the two faces inside these two aircraft represent?
Another very significant example is the fresco preserved in the Visoki Decani Monastery in Kosovo. This work is well known among ufology enthusiasts. The objects on the sides of the cross appear to be aircraft occupied by two pilots intent on observing the last hours of Jesus' life.
One thing seems clear: according to Orthodox tradition, the death of Jesus Christ is depicted with exceptional cosmic witnesses. And the next question is obvious: who really was Jesus Christ?
5 – 1180 – The first Flying Saucer
700 years before the West began to use the term "flying saucer", Japanese chronicles of the time record the sighting of a flying "clay plate". The sighting occurred in Kii province, near a mountain. The object disappeared high into the sky, leaving a trail of “hot smoke” behind it.
6 – 1428 – The miracle of the snow
The "Foundation of the church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome", better known as "The Miracle of the Snow", was painted by Tommaso di Cristoforo Fini, known as Masolino da Panicale, on the orders of Pope Martin V Colonna for the church of Santa Maria Maggiore of Rome around 1428.
” … we have the visual representation of a very strange event involving Pope Liborius (352-366 AD). According to this historical tradition, in a dream the Pope received orders from the Angels to build a new church in Rome in the exact place where a miraculous snowfall would occur.The next day, a strange snow-like substance fell from the sky against all weather predictions on a hot August day. The phenomenon was limited only to the area of Rome in which the basilica of S. Maria Maggiore was later built. (…) What was the cause of this “impossible” snowfall?
Masolino da Panicale, in his painting, represents a detailed scene of the event, with snow falling from a large and elongated, greyish and cigar-shaped "cloud", under which smaller clouds are visible. Careful observation of the latter, however, shows that they do not look like normal clouds.
In fact, they are all clearly delineated in their outlines and anything but vaporous, and are then represented two by two and in an identical manner with only the upper part illuminated, with the majority of the "daytime discs" equipped with a dome." (Roberto Pinotti).
7 – 1710 – The Baptism of Christ
In the painting by the Flemish painter Aert De Gelder, “Baptism of Christ” (1710), Jesus and John the Baptist are depicted immersed in a light coming from a shining disk in the sky. If it is the Holy Spirit, the incorporeal person of the Trinities, why did De Gelder want to make it so material?
Some think that the Flemish painter painted a flying object seen with his own eyes, others suspect that De Gelder never saw an alien ship, but that he was inspired by a long tradition of extraterrestrial paintings hidden by the Church.
8 – 1897 – Attempted alien abduction
The local Stockton newspaper reports a story of an attempted alien abduction. Colonel HG Shaw stated that while he was driving his car with another person, he came across what looked like a landed spacecraft.
The two stopped only to be approached by three tall, thin humanoids. Their skin was covered with a kind of wetsuit. According to Shaw, the creatures attempted to kidnap them, but he and his friend managed to fight them off. The official report drawn up by the colonel coincides with similar testimonies from other people collected in the same period and in the same area.
9 – 1942 – The Battle of Los Angeles
Three months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Californians have been on edge, terrified of a possible Japanese attack. On the night of February 24, hundreds of people reported seeing a large UFO moving over Los Angeles. Immediately, everyone thought it was a Japanese aircraft ready to bomb the city.
The military stationed in Los Angeles immediately illuminated the sky with searchlights, to realize that it was not a Japanese aircraft at all. The flying object was hit by anti-aircraft weapons, but suffered no apparent damage.
The UFO floated towards Long Beach and then disappeared at high altitude. To this day, the true nature of the object is unknown, but the event has been immortalized in UFO history as “The Battle of Los Angeles.”
10 – 1947 – The Roswell Event
This is probably the most famous and controversial extraterrestrial event in modern history. The crash of an unidentified flying object in Roswell, New Mexico, is considered by many to be definitive proof of the existence of intelligent life on other planets. However, for decades, it was impossible to recover concrete evidence of the crash.
In July 2012, Chase Brandon, who claims to have worked for the CIA for 25 years, confirmed that "it was not a weather balloon," as he told the Daily Mail. “It was an object that does not come from this planet.”
11 – 1957 – The Vilas Boas case
It is in this year that the alleged alien abduction of a Brazilian farmer occurred. Nio Vilas Boas was one of the first eyewitnesses to draw attention to the phenomenon of alien abductions.
While plowing his field at night, to avoid the hot hours of the day, Vilas Boas saw a red star in the sky that gradually grew in size as he approached, until it took on the recognizable shape of a spacecraft.
Vilas Boas ran away trying to jump onto his tractor, but before he could, a five meter tall humanoid in a gray suit grabbed him. Three other beings intervened to help the first and transported Vilas Boas inside the spaceship.
Once inside, the farmer says, the aliens took a sample of his blood and forced him to have sexual intercourse with a female creature. After about 4 hours of tests, Vilas Boas was released.
12 – 1961 – Betty and Barney Hill
When Betty and Barney Hill set off on a trip from their home in New Hampshire to Canada, they didn't know how memorable the vacation they were about to take would become.
During their journey, the pair spotted what appeared to be a star moving on an erratic trajectory. Intrigued by the phenomenon, the couple stopped and got out of the car to get a better look at the strange star, only to discover to their dismay that it was a spacecraft.
The last thing they remember is that the space object began to move towards them and then they found themselves 35 kilometers away from the place where they had left their car. What had happened in between, neither of them remembers.
Soon after, Betty began having nightmares of alien creatures with gray skin and large eyes watching and examining her. Barney, however, later revealed many of the memories that seemed to have been erased by aliens. The Hill case is still being studied today.
13 – 1962 – The kidnapping of Rivalino Mafra
Raimundo Aleluia Mafra, a nine-year-old boy, said that his father, Rivalino Mafra, a miner, was kidnapped by a flying saucer in Duas Pontas, near Belo Horizonte. “The disk – as little Raimundo declared – landed in front of our house, while we were taking in the fresh air and 'sucked' my father into it. Then he disappeared."
The boy was placed under observation for some time. Victim of a hallucination? What is certain is that his father really disappeared.
14 – 1975 – The case of Trevis Walton
The case received considerable publicity and remains one of the best-known cases of alleged Alien Abduction. The historian of the UFO phenomenon Jerome Clark reports how “few abductions have generated as much controversy as the Walton case”.
This is one of the very few alien abduction cases with concordant eyewitnesses and one of the abduction cases where time spent with aliens plays a secondary role.
Travis Walton claims to have been abducted by a UFO on November 5, 1975, while he was working with colleagues in the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest in Arizona. Walton disappeared for several days, only to reappear after five days of intense searching, during which his fellow carpenters from the village of Snowflake were indicted for alleged murder.
In 1993, Walton's story was told in a film,Fire in the Sky, directed by Robert Lieberman and starring DB Sweeney as Travis Walton and Robert Patrick as Mike Rogers.
15 – 2011 – Aliens from the Siberian Tundra
Two explorers on the frozen tundra of Siberia have come across what appears to be the body of an alien. The body was torn apart and partly buried in the snow. The skin color appears to be purplish and the eyes have the particular almond-shaped orbital formation.
The area of the discovery is one of those "hot" places where numerous UFO activities have been reported. Many are convinced that the alien's corpse is a remnant of a UFO incident that occurred in the area. The video of the discovery has totaled almost 1.5 million views.
