A deep investigation of mysterious geometric structures on the surface of Mars• Explores a wide variety of anomalous structures on Mars’s surface that display a high degree of geometric and pictographic design• Examines sites such as the Elysium pyramid famously described by Carl Sagan and city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae and Atlantis Chaos regions• Argues that Mayan creation stories of a Star War and Sumerian myths of the Anunnaki provide ancient evidence for the existence of a Martian cultureExploring evidence of a lost Martian civilization and its contact with Earth, investigator George Haas examines a wide variety of anomalous structures and geoglyphs on Mars’s surface that display a high degree of geometric and symbolic design that reveal an ancient bond between Earth and Mars. He takes a closer look at Carl Sagan’s famous pyramid of Elysium, including high-resolution images released after Sagan’s death. Investigating a pair of city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae region of the Red Planet, Haas shows how the settlements include geometric formations of a five-sided star and a hexagonal pyramid, along with geoglyphic formations representing a dove, a killer whale, and a bat.Examining the Libya Montes region, he reveals a keyhole-shaped formation identical in design to ancient tombs built in Japan. In the Atlantis Chaos region, he investigates the remains of an ancient city nestled along a dead lake, an urban-like array of gridded broken walls and shattered foundations. He then explores a detailed parrot-shaped geoglyph in the large-impact crater known as Argyre Basin that four veterinarians found to possess 22 points of anatomical correctness with terrestrial parrots.George J. Haas is the founder and premier investigator of the Mars research group known as The Cydonia Institute. A member of the Society for Planetary SETI Research, he has coauthored two books and six peer-reviewed science papers related to anomalous formations on the surface of Mars. He has appeared on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory and on the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens, The Proof is Out There, and The UnXplained with William Shatner. He lives in Waterford, Virginia.https://thecydoniainstitute.com/Providing an ancient Mesoamerican connection to the civilizations of Mars, Haas looks at a lesser-known Mayan creation story about a Star-War that occurred 800,000 years ago. He reveals parallels between this story and ancient Sumerian stories of the Anunnaki occupation of Earth and Mars as documented by Zecharia Sitchin. Haas also shows how there is a direct correlation between the ruins on Mars and the art and architecture of Mesoamerican cultures, providing clear evidence of a long-disappeared Martian civilization that we are only now rediscovering.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Charlie Ziese is a visionary in the field of pyramid science and sacred geometry.  As the owner and creator of Stargate Pyramids and Chairman of the Pyramid Science Foundation, Charlie is at the forefront of exploring the profound energies and organizing principles that govern our Universe. He is the author of the book, "76.345 - Exploring the Hidden Secrets of the Golden Ratio”, which demonstrates the existence of a process he calls Golden Ratio Scaling in ancient and contemporary architecture, pyramids, hieroglyphs, temples, churches, ancient diagrams, symbols, obelisks, monuments, and numerous natural phenomena.Charlie has also produced several significant research documentaries.  "The Golden Ratio and the Organizing Principles of the Universe" delves into the mysteries of pyramid energy fields, Sacred Geometry, and free energy. This comprehensive work reveals how creation itself utilizes specific geometries such as Golden Ratio Scaling to manifest reality, offering viewers an awe-inspiring journey through the fundamental structures and processes that shape our world. He also presents a model of the Organizing Principles of the Universe which links the Torus with Golden Ratio Scaling, fractal scaling, the Fibonacci Sequence and Platonic Solid Scaling.In 2023, Charlie produced a documentary entitled “The Powers of Phi – The Golden Ratio in Gothic Cathedral Steeples”.  In this documentary, Charlie demonstrates that, unbeknownst to the very church organizations that own them, every Gothic Cathedral Steeple utilizes one of six exponential powers of Phi geometries, demonstrating that as recently as 500 years ago, the great builders and architects had a highly sophisticated understanding of the Golden Ratio far surpassing that in contemporary society.  Charlie’s most recent research is contained in his 2024 documentary: “The Golden Ratio in Fluid Dynamics”.  This cutting edge research demonstrates that Golden Ratio Scaling is found in the nose cones and other body parts of all of the fastest flying birds, fastest swimming sea animals, airplanes, helicopters, ancient aerodynamics dating back at least 70,000 years, commercial and private jets, missiles, rockets, spacecraft, racing cars, bullet trains, hypersonic vehicles, and numerous free energy technologies of the 19th and 20th centuries.  Research into rocket and hypersonic engine exhaust nozzles corroborates the connection between Golden Ratio Scaling and free energy implosion physics.  This research has far-reaching implications, as the research points to GRS as a “preferred pathway” programmed into the fabric of the Aether.https://pyramidsciencefoundation.org/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a UFO! It's an Iranian mothership! It's a radiation probe! Or maybe it's really just a plane. The wave of alleged noctural drone sightings in New Jersey has led to some wild theories about what the mysterious lights in the sky could be.Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R–N.J.) claimed that the drones were coming from an Iranian "mothership" in the Atlantic Ocean, then retracted his claim after the Pentagon denied it. (The Iranian navy does have a sort of aircraft carrier for drones—and publicly-available satellite imagery shows that it's still sitting in the Persian Gulf.) The mayor of Belleville, New Jersey, claimed the drones were part of a secret search operation for missing radioactive material, although the materials have already been recovered.  Rep. Nancy Mace (R–S.C.) even asked whether it could be aliens from outer space.But there might be a simpler explanation. Gov. Phil Murphy has suggested that at least some of the sightings were just normal air traffic misidentified by over-eager drone spotters. Police documents obtained by Reason under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act back up that theory. A map of drone reports produced by the Monmouth County Sheriff's Office shows a dense concentration of sightings along the flight path of airliners leaving New York City. Our panelists: Michael Glawson, Ph.D., is a writer, researcher, and consultant with extensive experience. Michael is a member of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, and hosts The Anomalous Review podcast. You can follow him on Twitter @michaelglawson, reach out to him via email at michaelglawson@me.com, or find his work at linktr.ee/michaelglawson.   Mark Carlotto is an engineer, scientist, and author with almost forty years of experience in satellite imaging, remote sensing, image processing, and pattern recognition. He received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1981 and has written over one hundred technical papers and seven books. Outside of his occupation as an engineer in the aerospace industry, his journey as an independent scientist has taken him to Mars and back again by way of planetary mysteries, UFOs, local history, and most recently, ancient origins and archaeology. His blog and website https://beforeAtlantis.com is frequently updated with his latest research.  Greg Goins is a New Jersey resident who has been outspoken on the topic of UAPs. He's appeared on Fox News and recently wrote an Op-Ed article on the New Jersey sightings in the Philadelphia Inquirer. gregorytgoins@gmail.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
