Minus 128.56 degrees Fahrenheit was the coldest day to be recorded in human history in Vostok, Antarctica. The icy continent can boast of the lowest temperatures, driest valley, and highest winds on average of any location on Earth. Looking at these facts it is hard to imagine at one time the world’s 5th largest continent was not covered in ice. Far into the planet’s past scientists have found enough evidence to soundly support the idea that Antarctica was once located around the same modern-day latitudes of Australia and New Zealand. Some of this evidence is taken from studies done of the ancient ‘fossil forests’ located on Antarctica. These remains of ancient plants have given scientists a whole new perspective on how plants evolved from some of their earliest ancestors. As more stunning discoveries flow from the frozen tundras every day, claims of crashed UFOs, abandoned nazi bases, and lost civilizations still make the headlines. Some even claim that buried beneath the ancient ice are entrances to the hollow earth and even colonies of extraterrestrials who are in contact with some of the governments of Earth.

Beginning in the year 250 A.D. the Mayan culture of Central America reached new heights of civilization. Marked by outstanding advancements in art, science, and architecture this period is referred to as the Mayan classic period. Also during this time, modern scientists have identified a widespread cultural practice of cranial deformation whose origins seemed to be deeply rooted in humanity’s past. From the many examples of art dated to this period, archaeologists have been able to form theories that link this practice within the Mayan civilization to a complex social hierarchy that incorporated two very different techniques for the shaping of their skulls. Some scientists cite the analysis of artistic depictions from the period that some of these techniques were meant to imitate the skulls of sacred animals like the jaguar, which represented power. Other scientists point to paintings of the god of fertility and other members of the Mayan pantheon which were drawn with similar cranial modifications. This practice of shaping skulls is not only found among the cultures of Central America. All over the world cultures, both ancient and even in isolated pockets today, have practiced these techniques for shaping their skulls as some say they were commanded by gods long ago.

Between 1972 and 1973, in modern-day Syria, archaeologists began an excavation of what they originally thought was an ancient farming village located in the Euphrates valley in an area known as Tell Abu Hureyra. The scientists were surprised to discover that there was another settlement from the Paleolithic era buried underneath the remains of the later settlement. Archaeologists were able to determine that the earlier village had been a society of hunter-gatherers who had perhaps settled in the valley more than 12,000 years ago. Around that same time period is when scientists have studied and determined there had been a dramatic climate shift that actually seemed to halt the Earth’s exit from its last Ice Age. Even more fascinating, is that a new study of the soil and artifacts found at Abu Hureyra, revealed the settlement had been obliterated by a fragment of a comet. This finding seems to support the relatively new theory that this unusual climatic event may have been the result of a single or even multiple extraterrestrial impacts. Impacts that may have resulted in, as some academics believe, the destruction of a highly advanced human culture that existed prior to the event.

In 1952 The United States Air Force began to experience an unprecedented build-up of reports of sightings of unidentified aerial phenomenon. Project Blue Book had been tasked to investigate these sightings which included events like the Washington flap. These sightings had become such a large concern the Director of Central Intelligence, General Walter Bedell Smith, issued a memo voicing his worries these events could be seen as some kind of psychological warfare and perhaps begin a widespread panic. The year prior, even before Project Blue Book had been formed, The U.S. Air Force had already begun investigating these occurrences and collecting interviews with witnesses. One of the earliest cases to be investigated was a sighting that happened in a town in northeast Texas. Over a period of several days, witnesses reported strange luminous objects that silently passed over their town in close formation at tremendous speeds. This event was closely followed by another even more fantastic mass sighting just 30 miles east.

Some crimes are so heinous that they defy explanation. Dark crimes that leave investigators speechless due to the absolute vileness of the perpetrators. In the fall of 2012 one of these crimes was discovered in a town in the Canadian province of Quebec. A crime of such unthinkable barbarity that it launched one of the largest police investigations in the history of Canada. An international team of investigators were gathered to piece together the evidence and solve this crime of unmatched barbarity that reached across Canada’s southern border into parts of the northeastern US. Those affected by these crimes had no idea how an atrocity of this magnitude could have been committed right under their noses for close to a year.

During the 1960s and ’70s, the world’s two largest superpowers vied to be the first to put a human on the surface of our closest planetary neighbor, the moon. Both the United States and the Soviet Union spent an immense amount of manpower and resources in order to study and map the lunar surface in preparation for this massive endeavor. NASA’s Apollo missions, from 1969-1972, put a total of 12 people on the moon. From these missions, valuable information and data were gathered that perhaps raised more questions than answers for scientists studying our lunar companion. Rocks that had been gathered from the surface-displayed magnetic properties that challenged previous theories of the moon not having a magnetic field. Seismometers placed on the moon picked up incredible readings that prompted remarks that the moon “rings like a bell” during impacts on the lunar surface. Even with the incredible amount of new information learned about the moon to date, scientists are still debating about the origins of the moon and its many mysteries.

In October of 1307 A.D. King Philip IV of France ordered a series of early morning raids to apprehend members of the Order of the Knights Templar. In 1312 the powerful monarch would conspire with the Catholic Church and have Pope Clement V officially dissolve the holy order of knights. Why would the Catholic Church bend to the will of the French king? What happened to the other chapters of Templars outside of France? What secrets did the Templars possibly possess that made them such a threat to the power structure of the European monarchy?

In 1139 The Pope of the Catholic Church, Innocent II, issued a landmark order that would create a fundamental shift in power throughout Europe and the Middle East. The mandate would establish an order of highly trained knights that would answer to no one but the Pope. The order of knights would be formally charged with the safeguarding of pilgrims traveling to the holy land of Jerusalem and the defense of the lands which had been taken during the Crusades. For their service, they were afforded a multitude of privileges. They were given the first choice of spoils of wars fought in the holy lands. They were made exempt from the local taxes of kings and lords. All donations of things like money and land were to be put under the protection of the Pope himself. This order of knights would quickly go on to accrue vast amounts of wealth and resources. Unfortunately, that wealth and goodwill that they amassed for nearly two hundred years could not save them from a violent purge by one of the most powerful monarchs of the time in 1307. Why was the King of France so eager to persecute these holy warriors? What role did the Pope play in their downfall? What legends and stories about this mysterious order have survived to modern-day?
