The Weather Channel: "The Quest for Atlantis...Startling New Secrets" airing today

[MagickMuffin]

TWC is airing a two hour documentary today on Atlantis. It will re-air @ 7:00 CDST and @ 1:00 AM CDST.

I had my cable box left on TWC and when I went to bed I had it paused, so it started after its hour pause time. Apparently it aired @ 1:00 PM and I'm watching the last half hour.

It mentions Plato and Edgar Cayce. And has interviews with Robert Sarmast, Alex Ghionetti, Greg Little, John Van Auken and other explorers.

This was made 2006, so you might have seen it already, but thought I would let everyone know about it in case you missed it the first time around.


Enjoy :hi:

2. I'm glad you mentioned this ...

I'm glad you brought this up. This is a very good interview with George Noory and Brad Steiger.
Steiger is awesome.


Author Brad Steiger discussed his landmark work, Atlantis Rising, which was one of the first books to cover the study of lost civilizations and alien contact. Atlantis serves as a symbol in our collective conscious and represents a world or global civilization before our own, he said.

Steiger shared a number of theories about Atlantis. Edgar Cayce's vision was of a civilization that developed a super-science, yet eventually destroyed itself in a nuclear war. There is evidence of nuclear battles in prehistoric times, with vitrified cities, Steiger detailed. Another theory suggests that Atlanteans withdrew to underwater colonies. The many appearances of USOs (unidentified submerged objects) could indicate these colonies are still active, he suggested.

Other theories about Atlantis include a retreat to the Hollow Earth, a metaphor for the Garden of Eden, and ET lore about their home world that was passed down to humans. There is physical evidence that humans existed on this planet far longer than we've been led to believe, Steiger noted, citing a fossilized sandal print on a trilobite from 250 million years ago.
