In The Alien Chronicles, researcher Matthew Hurley pre- sents UFOs and strange beings depicted in cave paintings that are tens of thousands of years old, in the art and texts of ancient civilisations, in mediaeval and Renaissance paintings and tapestries and in early pho- tographs. The images, a good proportion in full colour, as well as the well-referenced text provide astonishing evidence that humanity has always been visited by craft and beings from other worlds—or that our predecessors through the ages had vivid imaginations or were space/time travellers! Some of the images you may have seen before in the books of Erich von Daniken, but many others are firsts in this scenario. Hurley puts all of this into context firstly by giving an overview of modern UFO phe- nomena including sightings, abductions, crop circles and cattle mutilations. He gives tips on interpretation and examples of art- works that have been misinterpreted, e.g., that famous "frieze" from Abydos, Egypt, depicting what looks like modern aircraft. Hurley argues that to get a grasp of these representations in prehistoric and ancient art, we need to study creation myths, many of which show or refer to unusual objects and beings that visit or interact with humans and have common themes all over the world. The examples of anomalous objects in Western religious art are equally astounding, and Hurley shows comparisons between photos of modern UFOs and objects, lights, and the attempts to control them, perhaps as portholes or rays depicted in these artworks. part of some occult agenda.

Pyramid involved the harmonic oscillation of almost every known physical force and system and contained harmonics of the Planck constant of the minimum quantum of action. He draws parallels between the Great Pyramid and the more familiar "Death Star" of Star Wars movie fame. In part one of The Giza Death Star Deployed, Farrell explores the "exploding planet hypothesis" in modern astronomy and the issues surrounding the dating of the Giza structures, with the aim of reconstructing scenarios concerning the actual military use of the weapon. He claims the Giza Death Star may once have been used to explode a planet, wreaking destruction on our own. Part two is a history of the Giza structures energy and tetrahedral geometry, suggesting that the ancient Egyptians had access to superluminal technology that harnessed the forces of nature, time and space to terrifying effect. Sure, this is an hypothesis, but its implications are mind-stretching.
