TOS is almost as good as Deep Space 9.

I'm sorry, but I beg to differ. I'm not saying that DS9 was bad in any way, but TOS gave us some memorable and enduring characters that to this day are still the mainstay of the franchise (look at *cough* Star Trek 2009 and the upcoming sequel).

Also, the thought of Quark having to deal with all that earwax on a dally basis kind of makes me feel a bit queasy.

you will also hear, if you listen...about the 'unfinished' stones, more evidence the buildings were abandoned before completed!

If you watch a further few mins you will see the ramps..that were used for dragging rocks into place... these ramps are still there to see, but the AA series clearly ignored this in favour of levitation!!

Naw, the aliens levitated the ramps into place for the natives.  Out of pity, no doubt.

Zoser, I think you will find this photo of a wall in Cusco quite interesting; notice the small stones at the bottom:

Hey psyche.

I finally got the joke. My friend told me what was in the pictures you posted. I can't see pictures and have to rely on either someone reading the thread to me or trying to use my text reader (which is a big PITA and doesn't work all that well anyway).

If I remember correctly, the subject of AAs was the point of one of TOS's story line 'Who Mourns for Adonais?' where Kirk and Bones considered the possibility that Apollo was an early alien visitor to Earth in ancient times. In the end, Kirk says that the visitors influenced and inspired mankind, but there was no suggestion that they built any structures or temples.

So yeah, even Kirk's on our side (the practical side, that is).

Don't forget "Plato's Stepchildren", where the influence goes the other way.

I'm sorry, has this turned into a Star Trek geek discussion thread?

Sometimes that makes more sense than the nincompoopery posted by some

What about it?

See below.  The foundations still look precise in my picture below.

The truth cannot be dismissed.  It can be evaded though.

I doubt very much that they used the pictorial evidence I used.  Also did they refer to Jan Peter de Jong's report?  Have they done a more detailed analysis on the vitrification?

I think I know the answers to these questions by the way but please feel free to answer.

By the way; you guys seen to refer to this one video an awful lot.  Just an observation.

Look at the last picture (click on it to zoom). The bottom foundations still look precise.

Your picture is misleading I think.

It's still precision architecture as far as I can tell.

Not Inca definitely.

this is still going on?

I gave up ages ago on this one.. zoser will never change his mind.. even if aliens landed and turned around and said 'no we did not make it or help make it' his reply would be.. well you were not the aliens that helped then..

In the face of unequivocal evidence why should I?

It's maybe unclear what technology was used but the principle has been totally stitched up.

So have the skeptics.

Sorry.

Every attempt to defeat it has failed.  Even Abe's picture above.

For the simple reason and I have said this before a dozen times that you are all too eager to dismiss the claims and  are just posting the first thing you can lay your hands on.  It's all very easy to defeat.

You need to do some serious research instead of posting the first thing that Google throws up.

It was the only way some could save face I think.

Be back later.  Hopefully by then some will have done some serious research instead of posting fairytale nonsense.

The Aymara built Puma Punku?  Good heavens.  

'Once there was a man called Jack who lived with his mother and they were very poor.  One day he went to the market and swapped their prize cow for some worthless beans.............."

You all know the rest.  It's a fairytale.

so you cant be bothered to watch it then?

Here is the kind of thing you guys ought to be looking into.





How many of you noticed the very slight step top right?

Notice also the overall bevel effect at the borders.  The stones look flat in the middle but there is a definite curving at the borders.

As if someone ran along the borders with a tool to create the effect.  Yet this is hard stone not clay.  It looks like more evidence of moulding.

If it was not done like this then you have to assume that they were cut this way.  That's unlikely since it would have been far easier to cut the blocks flat and still have the polygonal shapes.  Maybe they wanted to emphasise the polygonal work by doing this?

Zoomed in slightly:



Instead of shouting 'no aliens' it would be great for a change to hear some of you guys give realistic explanations.
