 For many, 1947 was a pivotal point in history. But what if the real pivot point was 780,000 years before that? Why is the australite tectite at the centre of a mystery? There is an asteroid bombardment, there is no crater. A large craft had been destroyed in space. Such conclusive evidence. NASA scientists went to great troubles to see if they could replicate this. Homo sapiens are genetically engineered, diverged 780,000 years ago. How do we come about? What is a human? What is our origin? Why are we here? Welcome to Skeptico, where we explore controversial science and spirituality. On this episode, we hear from Bruce Fenton, who along with his research partner and wife, Danny, are radically rewriting the human origin story. My name's Bruce Fenton. I'm an independent researcher of anomalous phenomena, ancient mysteries, fairly wide range of topics. There are times when there's no way around it that you need to visit a location. In my case, that's meant travelling to Egypt. We've also been in Ecuador. I visited a site out in the jungle. It's only known through a few people that have been out boots on the ground and visited the site. That's been important to my research too. I've been to sites across most of the world, I think six of the seven continents at this point. It's a whole rewrite of a very widely accepted consensus view on the human origin story and on the early migrations of certainly the first modern humans, and even before that, going to archaic hominism. The work we're doing tackles all of that. We're not dealing with a separate set of evidence. The foundational material that I'm looking at is the same archaeological finds and genetic studies as any of the mainstream academics are using in their work. One of the best examples of a fixed narrative that is widely accepted throughout, not only like paleoanthropology, archaeology, anthropology, but science in general is the recent out-of-Africa theory which has become very dogmatic. The out-of-Africa theory, based on 1980s advances in genetic sciences, concluded modern humans evolved in and then migrated out of Africa. This was popularized by documentaries like this one featuring Hollywood actor Danny Glover. 80,000 years ago, a tiny group of modern humans braved the terrors of the Red Sea and left Africa forever. They cared with them the future of the world. By 10,000 years ago, they had penetrated every corner of the globe. Now, this is an example of where the evidence has shifted but the narrative hasn't because we now have, of course, genetic studies that are coming into play, an entire huge field now of genomic sciences that really didn't exist when the model first emerged. Pick any article on the topic of the migrations or expansions of the first Eurasian people and you'll find it will start off with, we know that around about 50,000 or 60,000 or 70,000 years ago, a group of Africans come out of, you know, usually out of East Africa, migrating to Eurasia and go on to populate the continent. Finally, they reach Australia and America and so on. There's obviously an issue here because there's too many dates for the same event. I think that what we have here, in fact, is very strong evidence for two distinct events. A movement of people going into Africa 70,000 years ago, which is validated both by genetic information. We have the appearance of new haplogroups. We have the L3 haplogroup, which is mitochondrial. We also have CT, which is a y-chromosonal haplogroup, which both appear around 70,000 years ago in the genome of modern Africans. Now, this study is not taken from ancient DNA. This is taken from modern DNA. Now, what is happening in the world 70,000 years ago? Well, 73,000 years ago, the Lake Toba supervolcano was erupted and is in the process of devastating the entire northern hemisphere of our planet. So, what is that going to lead to? It's going to lead to forced migrations. And if you're lucky enough to be somewhere in western Eurasia, particularly the Middle East, you have the opportunity to cross into Africa and into safe zones in sub-equatorial Africa via the Babel Mandab Straits. And this is precisely where we see the emergence of these haplogroups. Right there, where we would expect these climate migrants to appear. What else do we find? We find the first appearance of arrowheads and ranged weapons, an incredible leap forward in technology, which happens to appear 70,000 years ago in East Africa, exactly where we have these new haplogroups. Indeed, we also have the first complex mobile art, some of these carved stone pieces that have become famous in the Blombos Caves region and elsewhere. There's very obviously a cultural shift underway, which fits diffusion rather than sudden emergence. This is precisely what the genetic data is telling us, that a new paper has just come out, in fact, about a week ago, and they have found that the Y-chromocernal lineages of all Eurasian people points to a migration out of Southeast Asia and East Asia 55,000 years ago. Where's Africa in that story? This is hugely problematic. A 2018 paper looking at the MTDNA, the mitochondrial lineages, they found that the oldest variants of haplogroups M and N, which are considered foundational to all modern Eurasian people, those turn out to be in Aboriginal Australians, nowhere near the Middle East, nowhere near where they think that these new haplogroups are appearing, in East Africa and the Middle East. So you've now got the female and male lineages seeming to arise somewhere in Oceania or East Asia. Now this runs absolutely counter to the idea that we have a migration coming out of East Africa. So why is it that this hasn't, you know, radically changed the story? It's not being allowed to filter through to the public. It's certainly being, in some respects, suppressed. They haven't had an article on this subject published in Forbes magazine online. And within hours, senior editors spiking the story and having it removed with no explanation because it questioned a fundamental dogma in science and it was just seem as unacceptable. We look at the Aboriginal Australians at world view. We find that, you know, they're dealing with extended consciousness as being, you know, a matter of fact that, you know, that we are more than simply our body and that our history is more than, you know, a pile of stone tools. I've had my own very strange experiences that in some cases have provided information which has prompted me to look into areas of both human history and cognitive abilities that are not well understood. You know, this has come about through a series of very strange things that have happened to me. Chamanic experience, you know, a journey in an altered state of consciousness. I didn't have a context for this, but this, in some respects, I would say, began a path for me personally. I connected with a very well respected expert in that field, Dr. Michael Carmichael, who's considered one of the, I suppose, one of the leading thinkers really in Chamanic states and altered states of consciousness. And, you know, he was sort of kind enough to take me under his wing a bit and share a lot of information with me about this field. And really, I think, started me down that path of looking at what does this mean for us as human beings that we can have these experiences and that, you know, perhaps we can access information about not only ourselves but history, you know, perhaps lost elements of our story, that these exist in some intangible field or, you know, other place that we can access. I was taken to a site called Abu Ghurab, which is, again, it's usually off-limits to tourists. Now, at this very ancient site, which is rumoured to be one of the oldest sites in the Giza, you know, a greater collection of ancient sites, I had a very strange experience looking out across the site and suddenly feeling sort of compelled to look up at this star cluster known as the Pleiades. Which in itself is not a particularly glaring set of stars, they're quite faint, but I just felt really compelled to look up at them as they were rising above this temple site and had this bizarre sense of being in communion with some intelligence linked with this star cluster. And it also turned out that a good friend of mine, Richard Gabriel, who's a researcher that tackles anomalous sites in Egypt, he just happened to be going out to Cairo during the same period that I was also, you know, travelling out there. And we hadn't planned this at all together. And when we sort of realised this, you know, we arranged that I could meet up with him and because he has really a great knowledge of the Giza Plateau, the important sites, I was only able to go to the temple site at Abu Ghurab because of Richard's knowledge. Now, if I had gone at any other time, I probably would have not even known this place existed. So I had initially this synchronicity that, you know, there's the right person just happens to be there, that is able to take me to the right place, you know, and it's just as I've reconnected with the person who will go on to be not only my wife, but very important to my research journey and this story that we are obviously sharing. Now, this has all come about quite spontaneously. And on top of that, then I find myself, you know, without any obvious motivation, you know, pushed to have a kind of psychical communion with some other intelligence that I can't tangibly see or even detect, you know, in this flow of strangeness. This then leads on to later events. Now we skip forward about two months. I find myself now I've gone on from Egypt to England to Spain and from Spain to Ecuador with Daniela to a family home that her extended family has out there. It turns out that there is this person who's just come back from an expedition into the jungle. Now, out of all the people in Ecuador who would end up in a room with someone just back from a very strange mysterious ancient site in the jungle. There's me, you know, a guy who spent decades researching ancient mysteries, and he's probably the only English speaking researcher in that field for like hundreds of if not thousands of miles around. You know, and it's in these guys just come back and he's telling us we found these giant hammers and we found these these strange huge megalithic blocks. And I'm sitting there thinking, what are the chances that within a couple of weeks we'll arrive here in Ecuador from Egypt, you know, and these other megalithic sites that are anomalous, you know, that here I am being told about yet another set of, you know, fantastical constructions of the ancient world that are just not fitting into the conventional story at all with these giant tools. The flow just seems to continue and if anything, accelerate a connection to a people known as the Lagoa Santa. It turns out that the Lagoa Santa are in this area. There's been parts of Ecuador including Bagnos de Agua Santa, which is the nearest town to this lost megalithic site in the Yangonates. Now, who are the Lagoa Santa? That's a really important area here because these are a strange population of early Americans, the first Americans really, down in Brazil at a site called Lagoa Santa and areas nearby who seem to have entered the continent around 50,000 years ago, based on some of the rock shelters, the artwork, some of the carbon dating that's been done down in Brazil. What is particularly strange is that they have what's called the Australoid Skulltype or basically they seem to be Australian aboriginals in their morphology. This is very unlike the finds of Clovis remains who are seen here as an Asiatic population that enters the Americas from the north around about 15,000 years ago. Now anyone familiar with the current consensus dogma really on the first modern humans in the Americas will know that Clovis first has taken a long time to die. The idea that 13,000 years ago the first modern humans arrived across Beringia and into the northern areas of North America and that they moved slowly down into the greater part of the continent and that this is a narrative that's only recently been defroamed. Despite the fact evidence existed for a very long time that squarely suggested that modern humans were in the Americas much earlier. For example we have the bluefish caves where there was dates going back 20,000 years up in the far north. Now that in itself should have been a rewrite of the narrative where you go down to the south and down into Brazil and you have these Lagoa Santa where archaeologists are doing really solid work. They're finding dates that pushed back 20, 30, 40,000, even 50,000 years ago based on a wide range of evidence types. You have cave sites, we have art, we have fires, you're cooking fires, we have bones, we have a wide range of archaeology down in Brazil that have been studied not only by the local Brazilian academics but by the museums from France, when the major museums in France have been out there they've dated a site at over 20,000 years. This is solid academic work that's being done and yet it's also considered hugely controversial because it pushes the narrative so far back that we're not just going a bit beyond Clovis at 13,000 to 15,000 years we're going uncomfortably back tens of thousands of years earlier suggesting that modern humans have been in the Americas from around the same time as the Eurasian expansion 55,000 years ago. This is a huge hot potato which a lot of the academics don't want to touch particularly North American and European academics who have been pushing back against this and essentially ignoring the studies down in Brazil. Obviously the Lagoa Santa being Aboriginal Australian type people takes us back to Australia and the idea that there is a story in that region which is not being told. Now it's not just one which modifies the out-of-Africa narrative but I would say it goes much deeper. Back in 2013 I'd connected with some Australian researchers who had also been looking at this, the idea that perhaps there was an out-of-Australia theory in the works because the Aboriginal people say this in their own law they say, you know, we were the first, there were no others before us all others have come out of here. Now that's absolutely enshrined in their law. These guys connected me in to a lady there who had information suggested that not only did the modern humans arise there their origins went all the way back to Australia in the very distant past hundreds of thousands of years ago and that there had been another worldly connection as the Aboriginal suggest in their creation spirits these beings that walked the land in the beginning in the dream time who helped create humans that there was perhaps scientific evidence that would support this. This led to my book Ancient Aliens in Australia in 2013 and that really seduced into a whole new area of research the possibility that there was direct evidence for an alien intervention in human evolution hundreds of thousands of years ago. I was quite aware that there is an intelligence at work behind the scenes of my research and behind the scenes of humanity in general that is involved in the story of our evolution now when I connected with the Australian researchers that collaborated on my book Ancient Aliens in Australia they also led me to another connection which was a lady called Valerie Barrow who had a book called Al-Turinga when the first ancestors were created in which it describes an ancient contact event which is involved in the human evolutionary story that there is a contact that leads to changes in the early humans and a new species homo sapiens now for most people that was just such an extraordinary big leap but if you take it in the context of that I'm having events in my personal life and with my wife contact type experiences with an intelligence that is basically informing us that it's involved in the human story that it's over time has modified certain populations that has done these things and now I'm finding this same story is coming to me through these Australian researchers we're working with and you know other people they know who have a similar narrative so for me it was like aha you know the chain of synchronicity was flowing onward through the people we're making contact with we're finding elements of validation for personal experiences we were going through so we ended up having to really look seriously at the idea that there is another player in this story that is not appearing in academic literature is not in the National Geographic Documentaries because it's considered too strange, too anomalous too socially unacceptable and would require the modification not only of this story but of the way we think about humanity our cultures, our religious structures and absolute fundamental earthquake for the human species Valerie came into contact with an artifact in a very peculiar way she had a house that was called Alcheringa which is an Aboriginal term which actually refers to the first time the same time as well as the Alcheringa time now this is another synchronicity because somebody heard about her house having this name they were in possession of a sacred artifact of the Aboriginal people and now this person took it as a kind of a sign that this was where the object could safely be kept so she says yes fine I will look after this object which is wrapped up in paper bark so she doesn't directly see it she puts it in a shoebox puts it away respectfully doesn't take it out of its bindings which is the right thing to do it's considered wrong to look on one of these objects it's actually called a Cheringa now the Aboriginal people say you shouldn't if you're not initiated you shouldn't really only hold and look at one so she does the right thing with it but what happens next is totally bizarre she finds that there is a voice making contact with her in her head in a direct voice to skull type way if we think of it in terms of technologies that we understand now that there is a communication which is not auditory for everyone around her but that she can hear it as a voice and that starts telling her that there is a consciousness of a star person connected with this artifact and that is wanting to share a lost history of this planet and it explains that it has influenced the consciousness of people to travel around Australia to come to her home and then it says it's quite capable of going wherever it wants because it will simply modify the thinking of the people it's in contact with so if anyone's how does this object come to be there it's through it's own choosing it appears now the narrative it shares is it's just amazing the idea that there has been a visitation hundreds of thousands of years ago and that these artifacts some of these objects have been left in Australia we can assume as some kind of monitoring recording communication of devices that are connected to this visitation explains to her that there's been a huge ship has arrived here has been in orbit was destroyed in an event and attack again hundreds of thousands of years ago debris rained down across our planet it then goes on to explain that there is a series of crucial events here there is an asteroid bombardment five years later that is engineered by an extraterrestrial race that they choose to bombard this planet and shortly after this the first ancestors of homo sapiens are genetically engineered from a existing hominin species now of course there's a much bigger story here and credit to Valerie she details all of that in her book which people can read but my interest was in these major events because I felt there was the potential to be signatures in the geological records and in academic papers that I could go away and look for evidence of this suddenly I had an understanding of a whole series of synchronous events in my life going back years now going all the way back to the events in around 2002 when I had this shamanic journey experience an alien craft basically coming in towards the earth and the sense that a large craft had been destroyed in space that there were a few survivors coming down to the planet now at the time I had no framework for that experience suddenly there's a book telling me that a huge spaceship had been destroyed in orbit that beings wearing blue outfits which again I saw being in a blue outfit in fact I experienced being in a craft a tall being in a tight blue outfit and I'm reading about these tall beings in these tight blue outfits I was in tears the emotional impact was immense and then of course I'm understanding now why in Egypt I'm compelled to look up at the Pleiades because they're telling us this craft has jumped through some kind of wormhole located in the Pleiades just before it arrives to earth this was a story that I needed to see could this be validated for me personally it felt true but I knew that for other people to see this as a story worth hearing I needed to support it with evidence how do we come about what are we, what is a human what is our origin why are we here these major questions that typically have been dealt with either by religions theological context workings on earth or by the academics who simply give us this story of abiogenesis life emerging from a rock pool somewhere and a pointless series of chance events leading to humans with blind evolutionary forces at work and these are the two major narratives and hang on a minute there's a lot of people out there who have sensed that neither of these are telling us the accurate story of this story I realised that there was the opportunity here to perhaps validate this narrative in such a way as to to give other people answers so I looked at the core claims within this this transmission let's call it from this artifact now we say this artifact to me could be seen as a Bracewell probe for anyone who's familiar with any science that a Bracewell probe essentially is an alien artifact that could be left on a planet could record, interact and even make contact with people at the right moment this artifact seems to be functioning in that way the information it provides includes several events that I think could potentially be validated the first being a huge craft in orbit destroyed hundreds of thousands of years ago now I'm thinking could that leave evidence as we're told it's destroyed debris rains down onto the surface could that debris weather the tests of time could there be some of it left and that's where I really began and I went looking through the literature thinking would we find some signs of melted crystalline debris scattered somewhere that might fit with this claim I half expected that to be a big no in all honesty with hundreds of thousands of years of course processes underway what's the chances but incredibly it turned out there was a 100 year long mystery in science about a material called australite tectite which is largely silica is melted quartz at around 75% of the composition so straight away I'm thinking we've got a hit here in terms of the actual chemical makeup the material is scattered across 20 to 30% we've known that it has to have come down from space due to the shape that it's actually in this button shape I mean NASA have investigated this and they tell us the tectite buttons can only have formed in an event out in space that involved high energy that melted the source body turned it into little droplets spheres of a crystalline glass which have then had secondary melting into the Earth's atmosphere now australite tectite is really unique in the history of this planet no 4.5 billion years you only find this particular composition once and it's centered only on one location Australia now for me of course that was immense because here I'm reading the sources of this event land in the southern part of Australia and where do I find this debris scattered across the southern part of Australia the mystery around the australite tectite centres on the fact that there is no crater that is the source of this material now geologists would expect there to be an impact event that's maybe thrown this out and that this is their best guess at how the tectite formed now there is no crater and it does not exist it should be in southeast Asia if anywhere because there's chunks of debris at about 20 kilos in weight the type of event we're talking about should leave a crater that's many many miles across I mean they're looking at an object they think would have been around a kilometre in diameter coming in at perhaps 40 miles a second and slamming down into the planet throwing out this massive debris but the obvious thing you look for in an event like that is the crater now this raises another mystery because Earth is not considered massive enough to capture asteroids or comets and have them remain in orbit it's not considered possible in the physical understanding of these objects the speeds they're travelling at they would either slam into the planet or they're accelerated past us by the gravity effects captured and circling in orbit and yet NASA tell us again that this body was in orbit before it exploded and that that's the only way to explain the shaping of these objects is that they are moving essentially, horizontally to the plane of the planet in a decaying orbit and are gradually melted into these shapes that they have no other explanation so we have a very anomalous object made of around 75 to 80% silica which marks itself in orbit no other asteroids or other bodies are known to contain more than 60% silica this is an entirely anomalous chemical makeup which fits very well with another claim in the Alchoringa story which is that this is a vast silica network housing a living self-aware AI vast silica networks are precisely what the leading edge thinkers in AI believe we will create their intelligence these AI intelligences of the future and here we have the exact kind of material we'd expect for one it was an absolute total mesh with the book material this download and the real world science in a way that I never imagined that I would find such conclusive evidence that this was a real event one of the second major claims which was that five years after this craft is destroyed in orbit that there is a second arrival to this planet by a group of extraterrestrials that are connected with the craft that are allies who come here on a type of revenge mission and enforcement to tackle the other group that have caused this that have attacked this craft I'm thinking well is it possible that an asteroid bombardment is a kind of signature we think so we know that we can detect impact events going back millions even billions of years sometimes if they're significant enough obviously we have the famous case of the dinosaurs being eradicated by one of these major impacts I thought could it be that there is something out there now this was a bit synchronous because as it turned out there really was nothing in terms of the academic papers that pointed to this instead what I found was that just a couple of years before in 2015 there had been a geological team investigating the signs of a multi-directional asteroid bombardment of our planet and the date they had come up with was 780,000 years ago now if I had looked for this information just a few years ago I would have found nothing it wouldn't have been there only at this time could somebody have validated that claim and keep in mind the original material is from 1994 so there's no way even at the time when it was downloaded and written about that anyone could have validated this so years later just the right moment I'm prompted to look and the discoveries are in process we now know that there were impacts across America Africa all around the world in fact there's a major one down in Antarctica an object the size the same size as the one at the Chickslip crater which is believed to have eradicated the dinosaurs an object on that scale impacted Antarctica 780,000 years ago leaving a crater that is 200 miles by 200 miles I mean we are talking about an enormous event and at the other sites we have major impacts that have left you know scarring across these each of these continents precisely in the way this downloaded information has told us that this is many objects that bombard separately at different points on the planet now how does this come about this anomalous bombardment this is not a natural event and in fact if you look at the academic studies they don't even try to explain this they have no explanation for this bombardment why are these asteroids all suddenly coming in from different directions at the same moment and hitting this planet an unprecedented event one of the understandings that eventually came to me as I dug deeper into this was that this asteroid impact event was not unconnected to the magnetic reversal there's now a number of scientists that are positing that it was in fact the impacts that caused the geomagnetic reversal was it an attempt to cause a reversal now I don't know that but certainly it seems that these major impacts may well have not only caused a cataclysm in terms of tsunamis, earthquakes, firestorms you know a nuclear winter these are all things that are hypothesized that it caused but it now seems also induced a magnetic field reversal having validated that there was not only a large crystalline object in orbit just as this information stated and having found that there was indeed a multi-directional asteroid bombardment as the information had stated and I was in a position where I had to look at perhaps the most controversial and most important claim in this information which is of course that homo sapiens are tied to this story that these beings, this intelligence you know goes on to make a modification in the early hominins that are living on the planet at this time could this also be true now I was in a fortunate position having already written a book The Forgotten Exodus which tackled human evolution the early migrations and the story of these archaic hominins I was aware that there were anomalies in that narrative already and had quite a familiarity with the academic literature so one of the things I already knew was that in just the last few years it had really shifted that instead of positing that around 400 to 500,000 years ago homo sapiens begin to diverge from other hominins it's been pushed back to around 750 to 800,000 and back in the middle of that of course is 780,000 years ago so this is quite astonishing in that again if it had been a few years before and this information had come to me I would not have been able to validate this right wouldn't have been able to be validated that this is cutting edge information now one of the reasons why we know that homo sapiens begins to diverge 780,000 years ago is a couple of different finds one being the Sima de la Huesos site in Spain where we now have the oldest DNA ever recovered from a hominin species now these are actually archaic ancestors of Neanderthals and the things that they told us the split between Neanderthals and modern humans occurred far earlier than was previously understood and he's pushed those dates way way back that they were able to see that the Sima hominins were much closer to Neanderthals than expected and in fact the only way to explain this depth and the divergence seen in the genome there was to push our own divergence from their ancestors back to around 750,000 or more years ago now that's not the only thing with the denosoven genome being fully mapped quite recently they found that the denosoven ancestors they seem to begin to diverge away from those direct ancestors of modern humans somewhere in the region of 800,000 years ago again bolstering this date I could go through various other studies there's, there are some oldest research papers which suggested that some specific specific genes some specific proteins in the past have already pointed to a divergence event around 700,000 to 800,000 years ago so this isn't entirely new we also know that in the fossil record there is an anomalous event occurring just after 800,000 years ago with the human brain suddenly going into overdrive that we have this massive expansion in the cranial capacity which has long been known due to the fossil finds that explain it of course now we have the genetic data coming in saying that hey there's some changes underway at the genomic level which go towards explaining this sudden unprecedented and anomalous brain size expansion in our ancestors as I sort of drilled down into this genetics part of the story I was really astonished to find that there were some studies that hugely pointed to anomalous events at the beginning of our history now one of these is the fusion of chromosome 2 which is usually assumed to be a natural event but when you look at that and I've had a biologist friend of mine look closely at this and say that well there's not really strong support for the idea that it's natural that's assumed because nobody's going to go there with the idea that it could be unnatural that in fact there's a lot of that goes on to be present in every living human that rather than having a singular strange mutation that fades away it becomes completely universal to our species there's a total replacement of all of the 48 chromosome humans with those with 46 it's also inferred that this fusion must have brought incredible benefits for those who had it this is part of the explanation of why it became so widespread isolated population for it to become persistent now that's precisely measures with a test group a small isolated population suddenly has these miraculous beneficial changes that are so beneficial they persist working against the forces of evolution which usually remove these kind of fusion events because they're normally usually negative and instead we see this really strange replacement this also fits with what's known as CRISPR gene drives if anyone's familiar with gene drives this is a cutting edge technology where we've realised that you can change the way in which information is inherited and have different groups mixing but yet the traits you want them to have will be passed on to everyone instead of having information from two parents only one parent's information is passed on this is the technology that can literally make species extinct or completely replace the existing group now that's exactly what we see happen at the early stages of Homo sapiens which is itself a red flag but it's not this alone it's not just chromosome 2 we find that there are a slew of changes that have been titled human accelerated regions these human accelerated regions are in fact by definition areas of the code that have gone through rapid evolution accelerated evolution what is the explanation for this in fact we find there isn't one that the academics that have discovered this say that having crunched the numbers they believe that there is around about a zero percent chance of the changes they're seeing having happened by any understood evolutionary mechanisms now what do these areas do essentially they happen to be in areas of non-coding DNA known as essentially switches that control the expression of genes whether to turn them on or off to make them express stronger express less and if you know how to change those areas of code you can completely redesign an organism and that's where they're finding these anomalies hundreds of them most of them are to do with down to those anomalous changes we see in the fossil record where the human brain goes through this bizarre acceleration in not only size but structure and complexity right at that point just after 800,000 years ago and now we find there are hundreds of anomalies in non-coding DNA that would really explain a lot of what we're seeing and that the academics are telling us we've got nothing when it comes to an explanation I even went to the and a question was put to them about my work and she said well I don't think it's connected to aliens and gave her understanding what it was and in fact her argument has already been dismissed I found a more recent paper on the subject we said that no her understanding of it is wrong and there is no explanation to this day and this is a 2017 paper which says that nothing has come up yet that explains these changes and the topic so these are completely unexplained other than by an intelligence at work modifying the genome and these are the signatures of that process for me one of the fascinating elements of the timing of this contact with this intelligence and what seems to be a cosmic nudge to look at this information is that we have to consider that it's only now that we really understand the solution in that field with these prispar technologies and gene drives and essentially we may well be at the end of Homo sapiens with the beginning of something like a Homo sapiens 2.0 where we can now change humans at the genomic level and start to incorporate technologies from nano technologies cybernetics all of these things are happening now and yet we are being sort of nudged to look at a story of the human the cycle is almost completing and again we are also seeing a lot of talk about looking for asteroid threats and bombardments that subject is big right now and of course the fact that we just now can really appreciate the science behind these revelations is quite extraordinary that we are being nudged to look at it is that deliberate that's why we need to know how to have those capabilities we have the fire of the gods passed down to us one of the surprises for me in the narrative of this information is that we can see that assuming that this is sufficient validation for people to say that there is an intelligence at work what does it tell us about this intelligence and advanced entities that are out there in space well one of the things it points to by becoming hugely advanced that you are totally peaceful and no longer have to worry about any problems we sometimes feel that in a Star Trek future all ideas of conflict and competition may be removed and yet here we are seeing entities that can move around through wormholes that they can modify species they can do all this but yet they still come into conflicts fight, flight, flee and not as far removed in those basic levels as we might have expected as many new age thinkers would theorize that there is only peace out there is it okay to play God should we be going into the genome and modifying species should they have done it what might we expect of cosmic intelligences and is it anything like the ideas that most people have got in their heads
