TL;DR: I mention in the pod that I love all of beliefs, including alien, UFO, and ALT timelines, but I have never experienced any of it 1st hand. Love them, though! Since Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977). I want to believe!
Mentioned in podcast: S18 Ep48: Secret Space UFOs: Apollo 1 - 11 w/Darcy Weir
This podcast aims to delve into these theories, including the different alien races, triangle UFOs, the hollow Earth theory, and claims of human participation in an intergalactic space federation. Several conspiracy theories propose the existence of various alien races that are believed to interact with or influence Earth in different ways. Some of the most prominent races include:
The hollow Earth theory posits that the Earth is not a solid sphere but instead contains a central sun and a subterranean civilization. Proponents of this theory claim that various mythical beings and ancient races, including the lost city of Atlantis, exist within this inner world. Some even suggest that extraterrestrials reside in the Earth's core, manipulating events on the surface. A popular conspiracy theory asserts that humans have been involved in a secret space program for decades, collaborating with alien species and participating in an intergalactic space federation. These theories often include claims of advanced technologies, such as teleportation and time travel, along with assertions that human colonies exist throughout the galaxy. One notable claim involves former U.S. President Barack Obama, who some believe was teleported to Mars as part of a secret program. Another enduring conspiracy theory revolves around the idea that much of Earth's modern technology has been reverse-engineered from alien technology. This notion is often linked to the alleged UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947 and the existence of Area 51, a top-secret military installation believed to house alien artifacts and conduct experiments on captured extraterrestrial technology. One of the most common arguments made by flat Earthers is that the moon landing was faked. They point to a number of things as evidence for their belief, including the fact that there are no stars in any of the photos or videos from the moon landing, that the American flag appears to be waving in the wind, and that the shadows in the photos are inconsistent with the direction of the sun. They also argue that Stanley Kubrick, the director of the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, was involved in faking the moon landing. Some conspiracy theorists claim that filmmaker Stanley Kubrick was enlisted to direct the fake moon landing on a soundstage in Burbank, California. They cite inconsistencies in the moon landing footage and the behavior of the astronauts as evidence for their claims. Reports of large, silent UFOs and triangular craft are relatively common in UFO literature. These objects are typically described as being hundreds of meters wide or even the size of a football field. Many witnesses claim that these craft are capable of hovering or moving silently at high speeds, defying conventional aerodynamics. The flat Earth theory posits that the Earth is not a sphere, but rather a flat plane, often depicted as a disk. Proponents of this theory believe that the Earth is surrounded by a solid, transparent dome called the firmament, which separates the Earth from the "waters above."
