More than 7,000 years ago, the ancient Sumerians established what is considered the world's first civilization, and they credited their extraordinary achievements to their gods, the Anunnaki. But is it possible that these powerful beings were, in fact, extraterrestrial visitors to Earth?

Along the Earth's north 37th parallel there have been so many reports of unidentified flying objects, animal mutilations, and other mysterious events that it has been dubbed The UFO Superhighway. Could there be something about this latitude that is attracting extraterrestrial visitors?

Within 20 years, we are expecting to send the first colonizers to the Red Planet. Astronauts will brave the six-month journey to become the first extraterrestrials visitors to Mars--where they are expected to live and die there, never to return to Earth. But why have we always had a strange fascination with this particular planet? The latest NASA research has revealed that not only is there evidence of liquid water on the planet, but that life on Earth was most likely seeded on Mars. Ancient Astronaut theorists even suggest that the development of life on Earth may have similarities to how scientists are currently planning to keep humans alive on the red planet. Could extraterrestrials from Mars have colonized Earth in our remote past? Could our voyage to Mars not only unlock the mysteries of our ancient, extraterrestrial origins--but also be the key to the long-term survival of the human species?

The South American nation of Peru is famous for its megalithic ruins, colossal geoglyphs and the Incan civilization. It's one of the most mysterious places on Earth--but could it also be a site of extraterrestrial visitation? Ancient Astronaut theorists Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, author David Childress and investigative mythologist William Henry will examine a recently discovered "lost city" in Peru that has upended the historical timeline of South America, revealing that civilization emerged here thousands of years earlier than previously thought. Could it also provide evidence that Peru's incredible ancient sites were built with the help of extraterrestrials?

Millions of people around the world believe we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings. What if it were true? This is the question Ancient Astronaut theorists have posed since Erich von Daniken's Chariots of the Gods was first published in 1968; examining scientific, archaeological, astronomical, and historical evidence to find the answer. In recent years, more new evidence has been revealed than ever before that suggests there was extraterrestrial intervention on Earth in the distant past. Satellite images have exposed geoglyphs resembling Nazca lines in Kazakhstan. Ground penetrating radar has detected remnants of ancient technology in Machu Picchu. And thermal scanning has uncovered hidden chambers behind King Tut's tomb that may hold the remains of extraterrestrial beings. Could we be at the tipping point where the overwhelming evidence outweighs any last shred of doubt?

Antarctica is Earth's most remote and least explored continent. It is buried under as much as three miles of ice in some places, but recent satellite imagery has revealed what appear to be the tops of man-made pyramids scattered throughout the ice-covered landscape. But how is that possible? Ancient Astronaut theorists suggest that an ice-free Antarctica may have been colonized by extraterrestrials in the remote past, until a global catastrophe plunged it into the ice age. Is there a greater history on the continent than what mainstream scholars suggest? Scientists have reported strange magnetic anomalies radiating from beneath the ice, the Nazis allegedly made secret expeditions to the continent in search of a lost civilization, and government whistleblowers have come forward with claims of strange sightings. Perhaps hidden beneath the ice of this frozen continent lies the truth about our extraterrestrial origins.

While conducting a drilling operation at the Triangle Area, the team not only detects dangerous energy spikes, but also discovers something that may have come from outer space.

A "Cosmic Egg" -- in which the universe, or some primordial being comes into existence by the hatching of an egg -- is found in the creation myths of many cultures. Why is this concept so pervasive throughout the world? Clues to the origin of the Cosmic Egg may lie in another symbol commonly paired with the egg -- the symbol of intertwined snakes -- which some believe represents ancient knowledge of the DNA double-helix spiral. Did our ancestors have advanced insight into human biological coding? And could the Cosmic Egg represent, not the cosmos or the gods, but our own creation and genetic manipulation? Ancient Astronaut theorists suggest that just like the world's most iconic religious symbols, the Cosmic Egg cannot be summed up as representing a singular thing, but may have a much deeper meaning.

For centuries, humanity has been fixated on Mars--the glowing red orb in the night sky. As a new era of exploration of the Red Planet begins, we are on the cusp of finally solving the Red Planet's mysteries. Ancient cataclysms are believed to have left Mars barren, but science continues to find clues that this red planet was once blue and capable of producing life. Will we finally uncover evidence of life on Mars, once we finally set foot there? And what else might we discover on this mysterious planet?

It's one of the most infamous crimes in American history: the gruesome murder of a young beauty, unsolved for decades. There's a long line of suspects, each more mysterious than the next. Can the questions surrounding one of history's most notorious unsolved cases finally be answered?

In July 1996, one of the worst aviation disasters in American history leaves 230 people dead and countless questions unanswered. It's a tragedy that changes the aviation industry forever, but what caused the explosion of TWA Flight 800?

The Aborigines of Australia are the oldest, continuously surviving society on Earth. The stories preserved in their oral tradition are said to date back over 60,000 years, to an era they call the "Dreamtime" and contain fascinating descriptions about how life began and our planet was seeded by extraterrestrials. Linguistic experts have just discovered that many of these indigenous legends can be scientifically verified by examining the geological record. Ancient Astronaut theorists propose that if the Aboriginal's oral traditions are indeed this accurate, then perhaps the tales they tell about sky gods visiting Earth in large, fire-spewing crafts are true as well. Could the ultimate evidence about our extraterrestrial past be found within the sacred stories, sites, and rituals of Australia's Wisdom Keepers?
