For 200 years, the Knights Templar operated throughout Medieval Europe and the Middle East, controlling territory as well as economic and political power. The intrigues of this secret society are slowly being revealed, and beneath the surface, even more mysterious organizations like the Knights of Malta can be found. Seeking to control both the Europeans and the Ottomans, they also dove into the occult, searching for magic and alchemy to grasp control of both Earth and Heaven. This fascinating journey takes us through the grand castles and cathedrals of Europe where the Knights held court, both public and in secret.
Amazing encounters with Bigfoot are chronicled in this program, with startling new testimony from witnesses. They all report a horrible stench around the beast and a blood-curdling scream from the creature. There's no question they're humanlike, with family units and various methods of communicating, both by vocalizing and by striking rocks and trees for long-distance messages. A worldwide phenomenon, Bigfoot in one form or another appears in every corner of the globe.
An obscure 16th Century scholar built on the Book of Revelations and came up with a set of remarkable predictions for the future, quickly becoming our present. Quoting straight from the seer himself, this program presents the oracle's belief that our lives will all soon end. Deciphering Nostradamus can be difficult--he often encoded his writing so as not to offend the Church of his time, and interpreting what world events correspond to what predictions can be a problem. Not dismissed easily, Nostradamus remains the most troubling and studied prophet of the Renaissance, whose forecasts become more relevant each day.
If there's a librarian and documentarian of first-hand UFO visitation, it's this seemingly innocuous farmer who has taken literally hundreds of photos and videos of (and from!) alien aircraft from around the world. Claiming to have had contact with extraterrestrials for most of his life, his message from them to us Earthlings is that we are in trouble and must make wholesale changes in our behavior if we intend life on Earth to continue. A target of numerous assassination attempts and constant ridicule, he's clearly touching a nerve somewhere. Or is it all a hoax? Or a product of a deranged mind? Fascinating any way you look at it.

Patrick Troughton plays the second Doctor in this four-episode adventure from 1967, set on Earth's moon and featuring a return appearance by the emotionless Cybermen. The year is 2070, and Earth's weather is controlled by a device called the Gravitron, based on the Moon and manned by an international team of experts.

Metaphysical mysteries abound, from the vastness of space to our own consciousness. Are there hard, physical realities out there we just don't understand? Is our universe billions of times more complicated than we could ever imagine? Are aliens visiting us on a regular basis? Are other worlds just beyond our grasp? What if religion and science represent two sides of the same truth? Is it the same with metaphysics and physics? Are we even asking the right questions?
