Ancient Astronauts: Are They Real?

Ancient astronauts or ancient aliens are purported intelligent extraterrestrial beings said to have visited Earth in antiquity or prehistory and made contact with humans.

We aren't trying to tell you this is real, only that this story will blow your mind! We may never know what is real or not real! Here is just some evidence to share :)

Keep an open mind! 

Proponents suggest that this contact influenced the development of human cultures, technologies and religions. 

A common variant of the idea is that deities from most, if not all, religions are actually extraterrestrials, and their advanced technologies were wrongly understood by primitive men as evidence of their divine status. 

These proposals have been popularized, particularly in the latter half of the 20th century, by writers such as Erich von Däniken, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, Zecharia Sitchin, Robert K. G. Temple, David Icke and Peter Kolosimo, but the idea that ancient astronauts actually existed is not taken seriously by most academics, and has received little or no credible attention in peer reviewed studies. Ancient astronauts have been widely used as a plot device in science fiction.

The Mayan Chilam Balaam texts stated, 

"Beings descended from the sky in flying vessels...
white men in flying rings, who can touch the sky."

The Mayan - Popol Vuh, states, 

"Men came from the stars, knowing everything, and they examined 

the four corners of the sky and the Earth's round surface."

One has to wonder where the ancient Maya got their advanced 

knowledge in astronomy, mathematics, and other physical sciences.

In China we find theories about an alien race

called the Dropa who left behind fascinating discs.

If aliens visited Earth in the past, could they make an appearance in the future? For ancient alien theorists, the answer is a resounding yes. They believe that, by sharing their views with the world, they can help prepare future generations for the inevitable encounter that awaits them.

Zecharia Sitchin - Anunnaki Theory of Creation

Did ancient astronauts seed the human race? If so, what was their agenda? Have these ancient astronauts used planet Earth as a place for their 'science projects', creating race after race using biogenetic manipulation, then wiping everything out and starting again?

According to ancient alien theorists, most of whom have researched the topic for decades, extraterrestrials with superior knowledge of science and engineering landed on Earth thousands of years ago, sharing their expertise with early civilizations and forever changing the course of human history. To this day researchers look for evidence to support this theory.

Ancient alien theory grew out of the centuries-old idea that life exists on other planets, and that humans and extraterrestrials have crossed paths before. The theme of human-alien interaction was thrust into the spotlight in the 1960s, driven by a wave of UFO sightings and popular films like 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). The space program played no small part in this as well ... if mankind could travel to other planets, why couldnÕt extraterrestrials visit Earth?

Also in 1968, Swiss researcher and author Erich von DŠniken published Chariots of the Gods, which became an immediate bestseller. In it, he put forth his hypothesis that, the technologies and religions of many ancient civilizations were given to them by space travelers who were welcomed as gods. He is regarded by many as the father of ancient alien theory, also known as the ancient astronaut theory. Since that time, he has written many other books and appeared in media presenting physical proof of his theories. In 2010 he appeared in the History Channel mini series, "Ancient Aliens".
