The Mystery of Faith
8. The Mystery of Faith
October 22, 2024
Believers have researched texts and studied histories throughout centuries, not only to strengthen their faith, but to find deeper meanings and profound answers to existence itself. Can we separate what is fact from stories or fiction within religious manuscripts? Many believe in hidden relics–like the lost bones of Saints and the Temple Menorah–and ask if they have a certain divine power. Can we prove that the devastating plagues of Egypt and the miraculous parting of the Red Sea actually occurred?
The Quest for Lost Treasures
7. The Quest for Lost Treasures
October 22, 2024
The fascination with lost treasures has captured mankind's curiosity for centuries, and new evidence and research have led many across the globe in the quest for vast riches. Do the lucrative spoils of the legendary pirate Blackbeard lay buried on an island off the North Carolina coast? And can a lost cache of gold and silver ever be recovered from the deadly Superstition Mountains? Will we finally solve the Beale Cypher, and crack open the hidden vault revealing his hidden fortune?
National Secrets
6. National Secrets
October 15, 2024
Deep within the recesses of the US government archives are secrets that will never see the light of day. But thanks to eyewitness encounters and devoted research many odd events are being uncovered...and re-examined. For instance, did the government hide the brain of President John F. Kennedy after his assassination? And did the US military experiment with time travel in the name of national defense? Is it possible that shadowy programs like Operation Paperclip and the Majestic 12 were designed to cover up UFO encounters?
Enigmas of World War Two
5. Enigmas of World War Two
October 15, 2024
World War II was the largest and deadliest conflict in human history. From 1939 until 1945, more than fifty nations engaged in harrowing combat, and while the Axis Powers were eventually defeated, plenty of mysteries emerged from the rubble. For instance, is there an armored train filled with Nazi gold deep in the tunnels of a Polish castle? And how did one man survive not just one atomic bombing, but two? Is it possible that a strange presence roams the area of the deadly surprise attack on Pearl Harbor?
Dangerous Depths
4. Dangerous Depths
October 8, 2024
For centuries, mankind has wondered what lies hidden in the depths of the Earth. For instance, what military secrets do underground bases like Area 51 and the Cheyenne Mountain Complex hold? And can discoveries in tunnels from the ancient past--like the Tayos Caves of Peru and the Longyou Caves of China--illuminate the cultures of lost civilizations? As humanity develops and digs further into the Earth, including the search for rare elements, what else will we uncover?
Ancient Ruins Revealed
3. Ancient Ruins Revealed
October 8, 2024
What else can we uncover from ancient sites? Are there hidden meanings or revelations we can bring to the surface that can change our understanding on how certain people lived, thrived...or disappeared? Who were the ancient civilization in Peru that built incredible structures at the time of the Pyramids of Egypt, and why do we know nothing about them? And what was the famous megalithic Stonehenge really built for: an astronomical device or sound influencing ritual mechanism?
The End of Days
2. The End of Days
October 1, 2024
Since the dawn of civilization, humanity has been fixated on predictions of the end times and our own demise. So, what can we learn to prevent existential threats to the survival of mankind? Will nuclear disasters similar to Chernobyl cause widespread destruction in the future? Or will it be a rampant disease like the Black Death that brings our entire civilization to its knees? Perhaps a massive tsunami will swallow entire regions, or a super volcano will rain fire and devastation throughout the globe. Can mankind avoid the end of days?
Strange Forces of Nature
1. Strange Forces of Nature
October 1, 2024
There are phenomena and undefinable events in our natural world that continue to pique our interest...and stoke our deepest fears. Do the monstrously powerful earthquakes that bring civilizations to their knees have a human-involved origin? And how can a ball of energy--that passes through walls--be proven to exist, but without any answer to how it is created? Are strange accounts of fish falling from the sky or a seemingly endless darkness recorded in the 6th century evidence of events that could happen again?
