White corrected a commenter by clarifying that the backing came from the Rockefellers rather than the Rothschilds, noting Sitchin was even housed at 30 Rock.

Carl Sagan and the Statistical Probability of Ancient Alien Visitation

Astronomer Carl Sagan published a 1963 article in the journal Space & Science calculating that Earth has likely been visited by advanced civilizations 10,000 times over the last two million years. Sagan suggested that evidence of these visits might be found in ancient sites like Baalbek or Mesopotamia. Despite his belief in ancient visitation, Sagan remained a skeptic regarding modern UFO reports, attributing them to other phenomena.

Carl Sagan, Ancient Alien Visitation Odds and Mainstream Skepticism

The discussion highlights a 1963 peer-reviewed article by astronomer Carl Sagan, who calculated that Earth has likely been visited by extraterrestrials roughly 10,000 times over the last two million years. While Sagan is often viewed as the ultimate skeptic, his mathematical models supported the idea of ancient monitoring, specifically suggesting researchers look for evidence in places like Baalbek and Mesopotamia. Erich von Däniken, a pioneer of ancient astronaut theory, provided the introduction for Dr. Little's new book.

Zedd proposes that ancient civilizations used "technology" in the form of natural materials manipulated by frequency. He points out that the layout of Mexican pyramids resembles a modern computer CPU when viewed from above.

Gnosticism and Ancient Aliens, Awakening from History

White re-describes the "history hijack" theory as a modern version of Gnosticism or the Vedic concept of Maya (illusion). He argues that the "Ancient Aliens" hypothesis is a materialist error that fails to account for the impact of the spirit world on human development. Both theories, however, point toward the need to "awake from the dream of history" and see the true nature of reality.
