In this workshop, Dr. Masters examines well-documented cases of alien abductions and other instances of close encounters in the context of the Extratempestrial model, which proposes that these big-headed, big-eyed, small-faced, hairless, bipedal beings are merely our distant human descendants, using the anthropological tool of time travel to visit and study us in their own ancestral past. Here we delve deeper into human evolution, technology, artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, the implications of time travel and cross-temporal contact, as well as what aspects of alien encounters may suggest that these beings originate in, and are visiting us from – our distant human future.
