Mystery of the Stone Spheres

1
Mysterious ancient stones
shaped into perfect spheres.
From Kansas to Kazakhstan,
we find these stone spheres.
Some of them are massive,
and they bring with them
this incredible mystery.
Many show clear evidence
of being man-made.
Some have carvings on,
like spirals,
and they look like
they're created in a machine.
And some of them
completely defy explanation.
The sphere was made of
elements that shouldn't
be there naturally.
Why is it that these
strange artifacts
are found in all corners
of the globe?
And might there be
an otherworldly explanation?
Is it possible that there is
a connection between
those spheres
and the extraterrestrials
who visited us
thousands of years ago?
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.
Across the ancient world are
mysterious monolithic monuments
carved of solid stone,
like the obelisks
of ancient Egypt,
the Carnac alignments
in Northern France,
and the Moai statues
of Easter Island.
What purpose they served
has been the subject
of much speculation.
But perhaps the most
mystifying monoliths of all
are those that are in
the shape of perfect spheres.
Stone spheres are found
all around the world,
on every continent
except maybe Antarctica.
But it's important to note
that geologists are still really
very much in debate about
how geological spheres form.
Some of them are taller
than a man.
And many of them,
they're so perfectly shaped,
they must have been
shaped by the hands of man.
From Kansas to Kazakhstan,
we find these stone spheres.
Some of them are massive,
and the key thing that links
all of them is this
incredible mystery about
how were they created,
why were they created?
And ultimately,
what is their purpose?
While ancient stone spheres
have been found
that are of
enormous proportions,
they exist
in a vast range of sizes,
and geologists remain divided
about just how they were formed.
Some are clearly
natural formations,
but experts agree
that many spheres show evidence
of having been
artificially shaped.
The question is,
what purpose did they serve?
I think that one of
the reasons they might
have been constructing
these spheres is
to mimic what they see
in nature.
There's a geometrical perfection
that comes with the sphere.
It might be, perhaps,
a connection to planets.
Sun, the Moon, the stars.
All of these are spherical.
And if you look deeper,
at the microscopic level,
at the atomic level,
you have the same patterns
of spheres as very important
building blocks.
So, this fascination
with spheres
might be a reflection of this.
What could explain
why ancient people
all over the world
fashioned spheres out of stone?
Perhaps further clues can be
found by examining a discovery
made deep in the jungles
of Central America
that defies explanation.
Southwest Costa Rica, 1939.
Workers with
the United Fruit Company
begin clearing the rainforest
near the Diquis Delta
for a new banana plantation.
While making their way
through the dense vegetation,
the workmen find dozens
of giant stone spheres.
They started to find
these massive stone spheres
that they had no clue
why they were there.
The instruction for them was, if
you find anything, just move it.
And they just started
to move them.
But they just kept appearing.
In 1943, the archeological
journal American Antiquity
published photos
of the mysterious spheres,
which caught the attention
of American archaeologist
Dr. Samuel Lothrop.
Five years later, Dr. Lothrop
led an excavation of the area
and discovered hundreds
of stone spheres.
They range in size from
just a few inches
to more than six feet
in diameter,
and weigh up to 15 tons.
Archeologists soon
discovered stone spheres
throughout the Diquis Delta,
and on the nearby Isla del Caño.
Many were found
with artifacts from
the ancient Indigenous
Diquis culture,
and are believed to be
at least a thousand years old.
About 300 have been
discovered so far.
Some of them are fairly small,
like the size of footballs.
Others are huge,
between eight and nine feet
tall and wide.
Some have carvings on,
like spirals
and what looks like boats
or ships.
They look like
they're created in a machine.
Researchers believe the stone
that the spheres are carved from
is not local
to the Diquis Delta,
but was transported
from a quarry
that was located
more than 50 miles away.
The quarries of this material
are allegedly found at least
a few dozen kilometers
from the site
where the spheres are located.
So that brings us
questions of transportation.
Walking around the rainforest
is not an easy task.
You have creeks, you have
mountains, you have hills,
you have branches,
you have tree roots.
So how were they moved?
Just as puzzling as how
the massive objects were moved
is how they were made.
Archeologists believe
that the Diquis civilization
carved the spheres
with simple stone tools.
But some researchers argue
that creating
such a precise shape would
be difficult to achieve,
even with today's technology.
It's important to note
that these are,
in some reports, granitic,
which are very,
very hard rocks to shape,
to form, to move,
and to quarry in any capacity.
If we wanted
to make these same spheres,
we would need something
harder than granite.
And there are very few
substances that are harder.
What's noteworthy is
some of them are
almost perfectly spherical.
And that's a very tall task
to create that with
the tools of the time.
As a stonemason,
I would use diamond saws,
I would use polishing items.
But when you look at
Indigenous people
that were purported
to have made them,
did they have those machines,
did they have that equipment,
did they have that technology?
How could a culture
that only had access
to stone chisels and
rudimentary tools have carved
and transported
such enormous stone spheres?
And what could have
been their reason for doing so?
Since the United Fruit Company
started moving the spheres,
we do not know the original
location of most of them.
You start to wonder, what if
we could go back in time
and see the exact location
of all the spheres?
What would they show?
Would they show a pattern?
Would they show
a constellation map?
Would they be like
the Nazca lines?
Like a pattern that you could
only see from above?
Although documentation
to explain the spheres
does not exist,
according to local legend,
they were created by the gods.
One very interesting explanation
for the Costa Rica spheres is
that they were created by Tara,
the god of thunder,
who used some sort of a blowpipe
to shoot these spheres
out of the pipe in order
to push back hurricanes.
Ancient astronaut theory says
that within legends like this,
there's often a kernel of truth.
And so you have to wonder,
is this a calling card
from some
extraterrestrial entity,
a sky god, Tara,
with some sort of message?
To me, the ancient legend of
the god of thunder illustrates
an example of
misunderstood technology.
Clearly those spheres themselves
never descended from the sky.
But maybe our ancestors saw
the appearance of a spherical
craft by the extraterrestrials
who visited us
thousands of years ago.
Was the creation of
the mysterious stone spheres
found in Costa Rica inspired
by an extraterrestrial event,
as ancient astronaut
theorists propose?
And if so, just what, exactly,
do they represent?
Perhaps further clues can
be found by examining
the largest stone spheres
ever discovered.
Zavidovici, Bosnia, 1999.
Archaeologist Dr. Sam Osmanagich
and a small team of researchers
are hiking along the Bosna River
when they come upon
an astonishing sight.
In the midst of the dense forest
are massive boulders
that do not appear to be
part of the natural landscape.
We discovered
six of them intact,
perfectly preserved
and perfectly spherical.
To Dr. Osmanagich,
the near-perfect shape
of the objects is compelling.
And he begins to comb
the region in search
of other stone spheres.
We have been researching
the stone spheres
in Bosnia for 25 years,
and we have discovered
20 different locations.
The stone spheres in Bosnia come
in four different materials.
Granite, volcanic stone,
sandstone and limestone.
And different sizes, also.
In most cases,
they are over one ton.
After his initial
discovery of the stone spheres,
Dr. Osmanagich expanded
his search.
And in 2016, he spotted
the most enormous stone sphere
he had ever seen hidden
in the forest floor.
We could see that
the small part of the sphere
was sticking out.
We started clearing it,
realizing that it was huge.
Monumental in size.
Once we cleared
almost all of it,
we've done the measurements.
It is more
than three meters in diameter.
The specific weight: 37 tons.
So, this was the largest
stone sphere discovery
in the world.
How the Bosnian stone spheres
were created
remains a mystery.
Some geologists suggest
they were shaped
through erosion.
But others believe the spheres
are simply too perfect
to have been formed naturally.
There is a process
called "spherical"
or "spheroidal" weathering
that is very, very common.
We see them
on the landscape in Arizona,
everywhere, called hoodoos.
You can see them
out in Alabama Hills,
out in Owens Valley.
There's a lot of examples of
this sort of sphere weathering.
But rarely
are they perfect spheres.
And so it could be that some
of these stones started out
mostly spheroidal,
and then were worked
into a
more perfect sphere.
The one in particular
that I'm thinking of,
Bosnia, that's been,
um, in the headlines lately
has evidence of heat treating
to help facilitate polishing.
These are not just round stones.
They are 96% perfect
in their spherical form.
That's not something
that's created by the Earth.
The near-perfect measurements
of the stone spheres
convinced Dr. Osmanagich
that they were carved
by artificial means.
And in 2016,
he sparked controversy
when he announced
that he believed
they originated
with some unknown civilization.
Who made them?
We don't have precise answer,
but we know
that they were made
by ancient builders.
Why?
Granite never comes
in spherical shape in nature.
If the stone spheres
are not naturally formed,
as Dr. Osmanagich suggests,
when were they made?
Many of the spheres
are impossible
to scientifically date,
but based on the layers of soil
where the largest stone sphere
was discovered,
Dr. Osmanagich believes it is
up to 100,000 years old.
We don't have
very specific time,
but what we do know,
extremely old.
How do we know that?
The Bosnian stones sphere,
the biggest one,
is discovered below the tree
50 years
dark soil 100 years
light soil
couple of hundred years.
We have light clay.
Almost 1,000 years.
We have dark clay,
we have gray clay.
Tens of thousands of years.
And, finally,
we have sandstone plate.
100,000-plus years.
Is it possible
that the stone spheres in Bosnia
were created
by some unknown culture
tens of thousands of years ago?
And if so, how?
According
to the mainstream archeologists,
until a couple
of thousands of years back,
the only tools
were copper tools.
Copper is soft material.
You cannot use copper tools
to shape granite stones.
Of course this is us,
21st-century civilization.
What did they use?
To try and understand
how these artifacts were shaped,
Dr. Osmanagich had several
samples taken from the spheres
analyzed in a lab
at the University
of Belgrade in Serbia.
We realized
that there is a difference
between their physical
and chemical properties
and natural stone materials.
There is a chemical component
that was found
within the spheres.
And this chemical has
not been able to be identified.
If the giant stone spheres
in Bosnia
were created
by an ancient civilization,
what purpose did they serve?
The precise engineering
of the monoliths,
and the fact
that many are made of granite,
has convinced Dr. Osmanagich
that the stone spheres'
true purpose was to transmit
Earth energy
that occurs in the region.
It seems that they had
multi-layer purpose.
According to the new science,
bio-geometry,
three most powerful
geometrical shapes
when it comes to the energy,
are:
four-sided pyramid,
conical shape,
and the third one is the sphere.
Those three geometrical shapes
amplify the energies.
Most of the stone balls
have quartz crystal.
Quartz crystal has the ability
to amplify the energy.
Dr. Semir Osmanagich
talks about
the use of these spheres
as, potentially,
small power supplies.
And this makes sense
when you look at them
in context
with the rest of Bosnia.
When you're sitting
in this creek bed,
surrounded by these spheres,
it's hard to describe,
but it does feel powerful.
It feels like
it is generating energy.
Did the giant
stone spheres in Bosnia
once serve
a technological function?
And if so,
might other stone spheres
have a similar purpose?
Perhaps answers can be found
by examining
hundreds of stone spheres
in Mexico
that were hidden for centuries.
Teotihuacan, Mexico.
This ancient pyramid site
was once home
to a mysterious civilization
dating back
to the first century AD.
A time long before the Aztec
arrived in this region.
Since the early 1990s,
archaeologists
have been exploring
the dozens of subterranean
rooms, tunnels, and pathways
that lie below
this eight-square-mile complex.
They've been doing a lot
of excavations to understand
the nature and the relationship
of the different pyramids.
And they're exploring underneath
the Temple
of the Feathered Serpent.
And so they've made
some really nice maps
of the pathways and such
that are underneath the temple
and exposed caverns in areas
that they didn't know existed.
In May of 2013,
researchers working beneath the
Temple of the Feathered Serpent
employed a small robot
called Tlaloc II-TC
to explore
the recently uncovered area.
Inside one chamber,
archeologists made
a curious discovery.
They found more than 100
gold-colored metallic spheres.
These tiny balls
are probably anything between
an inch to about
five inches in diameter.
And what we can say is that
when they were
actually put in place,
uh, probably
about 2,000 years ago,
you would've had this incredible
shining gallery of lights
as you went down it.
They appear gold,
but when you look at them
under chemical inspection,
it appears that that gold color
is the mineral pyrite.
The Mexican archeologists
are completely perplexed.
They haven't seen anything
like this before.
They haven't
seen anything like this
in their explorations
of the other temples.
So there's lots of questions
to be answered still.
Archeologists retrieved
several spheres
from the chamber,
and when they analyzed them,
they were amazed
by what they found.
The sparkly spheres
that were found
in Teotihuacan
really are an enigma.
As far as how they were made,
men definitely made them.
We have looked at those spheres.
And they are clay.
They are, like, sunbaked clay
that was then rolled
in pyrite dust.
That's why they have
that kind of yellow color.
Why they did it I don't know.
Nobody knows
the purpose of them,
why they were made,
or even who made them,
but the fact that they're there
tells us they are
of utmost importance
to what went on at the temple.
The golden spheres found
under the Temple
of the Feathered Serpent
are a mystery to archaeologists,
but some believe
they may be representations
of celestial bodies
observed in the night sky.
But ancient astronaut theorists
suggest the mysterious spheres
could have served
a more profound purpose,
and point to another discovery
made in 1906.
At Teotihuacan,
huge mica sheets have been found
beneath a layer
of stone flooring
that were 90 feet square,
and they were placed directly
on top of each other,
and yet, you couldn't see them.
So, they clearly weren't
decorative or aesthetic,
they were clearly functional
in their use.
So what were they doing there?
We use mica today
in spacefaring technology.
It's a heat shield
for high,
very, very high temperatures.
What is it doing at Teotihuacan?
What's also fascinating
is that, throughout Teotihuacan,
you see burn marks on the walls.
So, at some point, Teotihuacan
underwent a gigantic fire.
Or was it something else?
Was it some type of a blast?
Was it some type of an exhaust?
Curiously,
mica wasn't
the only unusual substance
found within
the ancient structure.
They actually found mercury
under some
of the pyramids as well.
So what does this all mean?
Well, mercury is used
in different
electrical components,
and it conducts electricity.
So, can we suggest
that they were
using this for some advanced
technological purpose?
Mercury itself
is-is very special.
It's a metal, it's a liquid,
it's an electrical conductor.
Mercury can be used
for many, many devices,
all of which are high-tech.
So you have to wonder, what is
going on here at Teotihuacan?
Do these small balls
and the mica
and the mercury
and other facets of the pyramid,
are they all working together
to create some kind
of electrical device
that's doing something?
That would seem to be the case.
Does the discovery
at Teotihuacan
of both mica and mercury,
two substances
with high-tech applications,
indicate that
an advanced technology
once existed in this
ancient Mesoamerican city?
One that involved
the mysterious spheres
found under the Temple
of the Feathered Serpent?
We've often suggested
that ancient structures
may have been used as some type
of energy capacitor.
An aeronautics engineer
has suggested
that the Great Pyramid of Egypt,
or the whole Giza complex,
may have been some type
of a giant power plant.
Well, what if Egypt
is not the only place
where they had something
like this?
Are the small golden spheres
discovered at Teotihuacan
evidence of
an extraterrestrial presence
on Earth centuries ago?
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes,
and suggest further clues
can be found
by examining mysterious spheres
that are not from this planet.
Cambridge, Massachusetts, 2019.
Harvard astrophysicist
Dr. Avi Loeb
learns of a meteorite
that exploded
over the Pacific Ocean
five years earlier.
I came across a meteor catalog
that the government compiled
using its missile
warning system.
The meteor, uh, burned up
about 100 miles off the coast
of Papua New Guinea,
and it released a few percent
of the energy
of the Hiroshima bomb
when it exploded.
From that, we inferred
it was about half a meter
in size when it exploded.
What intrigued Dr. Loeb the most
wasn't the object's size
but where it came from.
The meteor was actually moving
at 60 kilometers per second,
clearly unbound to the Sun.
It must have originated
from outside the solar system.
This revelation
is the first time
astronomers have identified
an interstellar object
that entered
the Earth's atmosphere.
Excited by the discovery,
Dr. Loeb closely
examined the data
captured by
the military satellites,
and he noticed
something extraordinary.
The government released data
of the explosion and from that,
we inferred that the object
has material strength
that is very unusual.
It's made of some alloy
that is much tougher
than iron meteorites.
So, not only was this object
the first interstellar meteor
but it was also tougher
than all other meteors
detected by the government
in that catalog.
And that raises the possibility
that it may have been
a spacecraft.
Is it possible
that an extraterrestrial
spacecraft
crashed into the Pacific Ocean?
To find out, Dr. Loeb
and a team of scientists
set out in June 2023
to attempt to retrieve
any debris of the event.
Avi Loeb initiated
this expedition
off the coast
of Papua New Guinea
to try and retrieve
the fragments of this meteor,
which was now known
under the name IM1.
And this expedition
was incredibly successful.
What they managed to do,
using a magnetic sledge,
was to retrieve around
700 very tiny spherules.
The samples were sent
to Harvard College Observatory
for further study,
because no one knows, really,
where they came from
and what they're made of.
Remarkably,
the material recovered
by the magnetic sled,
containing microscopic
metal spherules,
was unlike anything
the scientists had ever seen.
Probably about 50 to 60 so far
have been properly studied.
And these show elements
that could not have been
from the solar system itself,
or not primarily.
They must have come in
from another star system.
To Dr. Loeb,
the discovery is evidence
that he has found remnants
of the interstellar meteorite.
But the most remarkable find
was still to come.
Further scientific testing
of the mysterious objects
revealed a composition
that led Dr. Loeb to believe
they could be fragments
of extraterrestrial technology.
The spheres were found
to contain
extremely high levels
of beryllium,
lanthanum and uranium,
making a never-before-seen
compound known as "BeLaU."
That BeLaU composition
does not exist
in any known mineral or rock
that we know of.
And so this does speak
to his hypothesis
that they're manufactured
extraterrestrially.
Dr. Avi Loeb proposes
that these spherules may be part
of some type of E.T. technology.
What exactly he means by that,
I don't know.
Could that really be a remnant
of a far, far distant
extraterrestrial civilization?
Word of Dr. Loeb's discovery
made headlines across the globe
and stirred up controversy
among his peers.
Within academia,
there is still resistance
to discussing
this subject openly.
However, if we do not invest
in getting better data,
we will never be able to figure
out the nature of these objects.
Unless you search, you will
never find this evidence.
Is it possible
that the mysterious alloy
is a material created
by extraterrestrial beings?
Dr. Loeb's research is ongoing.
But if true,
the spheres he discovered
will upend humanity's place
in the universe.
We will publish our results
in peer-reviewed journals
and make them available
for anyone to see.
If we end up concluding that
it was artificial in origin,
perhaps a spacecraft,
that would be the first time
that we found evidence
for an object that originated
from another civilization.
Avi Loeb's suggestion
that the spheres may have come
from an extraterrestrial
spacecraft
has been hotly debated
in the scientific community
- Got filaments here.
- but incredibly,
another scientist has also
recovered tiny metal spheres
that he is convinced
are of alien origin.
The University
of Sheffield, England, 2015.
- Andre, on you.
- Countdown, please.
Astrobiologist
Dr. Milton Wainwright
- and his research team
- Three, two, one.
release scientific balloons
25 miles up into the sky.
Once a balloon reaches
its target altitude,
a capture mechanism
will collect samples of material
within the Earth's stratosphere.
After the sampling is complete,
the balloon bursts,
and the capture mechanism
descends back to Earth
under the safety of a parachute.
In 2015, Dr. Milton Wainwright,
sent one of these balloons up,
and it was hit
at an incredible rate,
uh, by something
that left behind a small crater.
And when they actually dug
into this crater
to see what it was,
it was a tiny sphere.
And when they actually examined
what the sphere was made of,
it was found to be
of titanium and vanadium.
And these are elements
that shouldn't
be there naturally
out in the lower atmosphere.
There's no Earth material
associated with them.
And they're too large
to be carried from Earth
to these altitudes.
They must be incoming
from space.
Where are they coming from?
We just don't know.
Upon closer examination,
Dr. Wainwright noticed
the small sphere
contained something
completely unexpected.
This tiny sphere,
when they studied it
under electron microscope,
saw that it was actually a shell
that had now broken,
and coming out of it
was this strange ooze
that they felt
was biological in nature.
The characteristics of these
organisms is very interesting.
They're made
of carbon and oxygen,
so we know they're life-forms.
They don't contain silicon, so
they're not bits of cosmic dust.
They're very unusual.
When I see the shapes
of these things, I'm amazed,
'cause I've never seen
anything like them on Earth.
There's no textbook version of
the pictures we've been seeing.
Although it is still unknown
just where these spheres
come from,
Dr. Wainwright believes
they are being used
to introduce
new life-forms on Earth.
This concept is known
as panspermia.
The question,
how life ever got here,
to astronomers
and to astrobiologists,
is still a gigantic
question mark
and a huge debate
because, at some point,
our planet
was just a rock with rocks
and water. That's it.
And so, how did it all begin?
And so, there's two ways.
One is panspermia.
Panspermia suggests
that life was carried
on the backs of comets
throughout the universe.
So, it's a natural seeding
of the planets.
The other one
is directed panspermia,
and direct panspermia dictates
that an intelligent
extraterrestrial civilization
that's much, much older
than ours
sent probes out
to seed the planet
with their own DNA.
Directed panspermia
is an idea first suggested
by the famous DNA pioneer
Francis Crick.
And, basically,
the idea is that maybe
aliens sent life to Earth.
This is the idea that
an alien civilization
would send out these seeds
into different parts
of the galaxy
that would come into
the atmospheres of planets
and eventually
reach the surface.
And this biological ooze
would then create
the beginnings of life itself.
With Dr. Wainwright's
small metal sphere,
you have to wonder, is this
protein ooze that's inside it
something to seed
the planet with life?
And to me,
that's a fascinating idea.
And if this is the case, then
perhaps the extraterrestrials
are using these
metallic spheres,
which are full
of some protein liquid
that will jump-start
life on the planet.
Could the tiny metal spheres
found in our atmosphere
really be designed
to seed life on Earth?
For Dr. Wainwright,
the distinct shape
of the microscopic objects
presents a compelling argument.
The reason I'm suggesting
it might be
artificial engineering,
it's pretty obvious that,
if you're looking for a vehicle
of directed panspermia,
this is what you would pick.
Instead of sending one rocket,
you know, to California
or to Sheffield,
what you want to do
is to completely cover the globe
in minute balls of life.
And this would absolutely
fit the bill.
To Dr. Wainwright, this
was evidence of cosmic seeding.
He believed that the spheres
were, in fact, a technology
a seed, if you will
that were sent deliberately
to Earth by some unknown
advanced civilization.
This would certainly be one way
of accelerating
evolution on Earth.
Dr. Wainwright awaits
additional funding
to continue his experiments,
and as far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,
the questions raised
by his research
merit further examination.
This oozing liquid
that's inside these spherules
is something that has never been
discovered elsewhere.
So what is it?
Could it be that this is a part
of a directed panspermia project
that was used
by extraterrestrials,
and we just happen to have found
the evidence for it?
I think what
Dr. Wainwright discovered
is crucial in figuring out
the larger picture
that our origins
is not down here on Earth,
but out there.
Do the microscopic spheres
found in the upper atmosphere
provide proof
that extraterrestrials
seeded life on Earth?
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,
it's an intriguing possibility.
And they suggest further
evidence of a connection
between the planet's
mysterious spheres
and alien visitation
can be found by examining
hundreds of stone orbs
discovered in Scotland
that were used to communicate
with the gods.
The Orkney Islands, Scotland.
In the 19th century,
archeologists excavating
a neolithic settlement here
discovered five small
stone spheres.
Over the years, more than 500
have been unearthed
throughout the region.
The petrospheres in Scotland
are very, very interesting.
They appear to be
of neolithic origin.
So, we're going back
to 12,000 BC to about 4500 BC.
They're small, almost the size
of ball bearings or something.
They have geometric
forms and spirals,
and it is obvious that
they were produced by humans.
The question is,
why were they produced
and what do
all the symbols mean?
While mainstream archaeologists
have yet to identify
the purpose of these stones,
ancient astronaut
theorists believe
the answer can be found
in local legends,
which claim they were used
to communicate
with otherworldly beings.
Legend says that they could
be used as oracle stones,
that a person
would ask a question,
throw the stone on the ground,
and they would get
some sort of an answer.
And that makes me wonder
if it's possible that these
smaller handheld stones
are somehow connected
to the larger stone spheres,
and they're perhaps
amplifiers or transmitters
of Earth's energy,
and that they all have
some sort
of an energetic function.
Could it be that
the ancient stone spheres
found around the world
were intended to amplify
the energy of the Earth for a
purpose we have yet to discover?
Or is our fascination
with spheres simply inspired
by the connection we feel
to the spherical bodies
we see in the heavens?
Perhaps the explanation
is more profound
than we can even imagine.
As a stonemason,
I'm very interested
in this mystery
of the stone spheres.
I think it's, uh,
a very enigmatic mystery.
It's a mixture
of science, geology,
actual human manufacture,
and legends of gods.
And I feel that more
and more objects like this
may emerge because
I think people are keen
on looking at our past
like never before.
In my experience,
stone speaks to humans.
Stone has a story to tell.
Stone is placed in specific ways
with specific properties
to emit some message,
communication devices, maybe
It-it's a very
interesting medium.
And I really believe
there is an understanding here
of something larger that the
stone is trying to convey to us.
Our fascination
with stone spheres,
whether they be tiny,
handheld, or massive,
is something that is associated
with connections
with otherworldly environments,
that we see spheres
as points of communication
with the other world.
Clearly, the sphere has
played a crucial part
in all of our ancient cultures.
And you have
to ask yourself, why?
Could there be more behind it?
What was the purpose
of creating the spheres?
Is it indeed communication?
Are they information
storage devices?
A commemoration of the original
seeding of the planet?
We still don't know.
And that just adds
to the mystery.
Do the stone spheres
found throughout the globe
serve as testament
to extraterrestrial visitation
in the distant past?
Are they commemorating
the origins of life on Earth?
Some profound technology
witnessed by our ancestors?
Or could they even have served
a technological function
themselves
that we might
one day reactivate?
Perhaps the mystery
of the stone spheres
will only be solved
once we are reunited
with our alien ancestors.
