[narrator] They thought it might be
an alien transmission, so they nicknamed the signal LGM-1,
for Little Green Men. It turned out to be a pulsar, radio waves from a neutron star
collapsing 5.5 million years ago. A lot of us put aliens
in the same category as ghosts or the Loch Ness Monster,
a subject for science fiction. Or left to the cranks, kooks
and conspiracy theorists. [man] Immediately, I was just lifted
from the ground, to about the height
that they were off the ground. That's when I first saw this thing coming
straight down, just like an elevator
