Martian Mysteries | The Phobos Incident, Monoliths, and Ancient Ruins

this episode of the Y files is brought to you by Factor at the height of the Space Race in the late 1970s the Viking probes successfully landed on Mars collecting pictures data and samples from the red planet it was so successful that Soviet scientists wanted their shot of Glory but their focus wasn't on Mars it was on its Moon Phobos named after the Greek god of fear after all if NASA could land on Mars landing on one of its moons should be easy right well it turns out Mars's largest moon was right to be named

after the Greek god of fear because as Barren as the landscape looks as impossible as it is to live there something does and that something does not want to be [Music] seen oh I'm sorry human I have to give my two weeks notice I found human you got to go to the grocery store store there's no food in this house it's an emergency what do you mean I just got groceries yesterday what that stuff you got nothing but meats and vegetables that's what groceries are oh well that means I have to cook something then just

run out and grab something just run out and grab something he says you know I can't do that last time I went out there do were paps in the bushes those were not Paparazzi those were landscapers I know a p when I see one that weed whacker was a ruse listen listen I'm so hungry I can eat a beaver beaver you know those faur wet things that live in a house I know what a beaver is and by the way that's not how that expression goes what so hungry I could eat a beaver please please

stop saying it it sounds gross what you're telling me you never ate Beaver yeah I don't really want to get that wait you have well yeah it uh it has a very strong flavor but it's really not bad once you get used to it can you please forget about the beaver and just use factor factor oh did you just slide your way into today's sponsor I sure did factor is a subscription meal service that delivers prepared meals to your door they're fresh never Frozen and ready to heat and eat in minutes will it fill this

life wasn't good the landscape was Barren the atmosphere a reddish green Haze this did not look like a planet that could support even the simplest life forms however after further study opinions have changed as I've shown on the Channel NASA has been taking some creative license with their photography link below to the video about Ma and the NASA cover up right the Martian atmosphere is actually bluish gray not green or red and the surface of Mars used to be a lot like Earth covered in vast oceans of water liquid water just like Earth as you

know the Earth has a spinning iron nickel core that creates a magnetic field this field protects us from solar wind and radi radiation well billions of years ago Mars had a similar core which gave it similar protection but eventually the Martian core stopped spinning and without the protection of its magnetic field solar wind Stripped Away most of the Martian atmosphere the reason there's water on Earth is because our atmosphere is actually pretty heavy when Mars lost its atmospheric pressure its water evaporated into space well most of it's water there's still water Frozen in the Martian

ice caps science s have even discovered organic compounds in Martian rocks compounds that are the building blocks of life so if there are signs of Life on Mars what about its moons could there be life there too well Mars has two moons Phobos and damos both named after the sons of the Greek god Aries American astronomer asop Hall discovered them in 1877 now Phobos is the larger and closer of the two moons but large in this case is misleading it's only about 14 M across for comparison our moon is 2,000 Mi wide fobos is also

oddly close to Mars only about 5,000 m away our moon is 200,000 Mi away Phobos is covered with massive craters and dense the surface is dull with no atmosphere it's not round at all it's been called a giant potato Phobos looks more like an asteroid than a moon and for a long time astronomers thought Phobos and damos were were asteroids that got captured by Mars's gravity not only did they almost perfectly resemble asteroids they appear to be made out of the same type of rock but their orbit is so oddly close to Mars that scientists

from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency or jaxa proposed another theory instead of being trapped asteroids Mars's moons might have formed in a similar way to our moon Oh you mean created by aliens in a distant part of the Galaxy and brought here to serve as a base of op ations uh no I'm talking about the giant impact hypothesis that a large object collided with the Earth and the moon was formed by the debris from the impact uh yeah that's not how the moon was formed well I have my suspicions too but Le let's stick with

Mars okay but if you throw out more cockamamy theories you're going to hear it I know but you're going to like the theory about Mars we'll see if an asteroid strikes a Planet hard enough to create debris a moon can form or in the case of Mars Two Moons and there's scientific evidence to back it up just like Mars scientists have found inactive Signs of Life on the Tiny Moon possible remnants of microorganisms or DNA aka the building blocks of life Martian life okay you're right I like this Theory according to one of the lead

scientists of jaxa Phobos is an ideal natural Laboratory if Martian life once existed and was widespread Elsewhere on Mars the chance that its dead remains exist also on Phobos is in my opinion relatively high this is because numerous small asteroidal impacts on Mars eject Martian surface material and the ejecta is relatively easily transferred to Phobos another scientist on the team had a similar thought in my opinion a of all the chances for finding Life as we know it in the solar system the surfaces of Mars and Phobos are our best bet Phobos is a time

capsule of Ancient Mars if ancient life existed on Mars its moons could be the key to unlocking the red planet secrets in fact Phobos could be the key to unlocking many Secrets even though it's smaller and less symmetrical than our moon it has one surprising similarity like our moon Phobos might be [Music] Hollow in the 1960s Soviet astronomers started noticing phobos's orbit wasn't exactly normal it was orbiting faster than Mars was spinning meaning it was lighter than expected much lighter a faster orbit also means the gravitational field was extremely weak so weak that 150 lb

human on Phobos would weigh only 2 o oh how much would you a weigh on Phobos when you had your Co weight I don't want to talk about that the idea of Phobos being hollow gained Traction in the 1950s and 60s Russian astrophysicist yoseph schlowsky and even Carl Sean proposed that the moon's unusual orbit could mean only one thing Phobos must be Hollow not only that but schlowsky hypothesized that Phobos must have a thin sheet metal structure on its outside in other words Phobos is artificial unnatural alien whatever you want to call it and other

scientists agreed Dr Fred singer thought that a hobos was a perfectly sound explanation if the satellite is indeed spiraling inward as deduced from astronomical observation then there is little alternative to the hypothesis that it is hollow and therefore Martian made Fred singer wasn't a nobody he was the science adviser to President Eisenhower even NASA admits the Moon is odd in their words the interior of Phobos could be a rubble pile barely holding together one Phobos researcher said the moon appears to be held together by a kind of mildly cohesive outer fabric outer fabric like Maran

sheet metal could be whatever it was astronomers and scientists from around the world were beginning to suspect phobo was hiding some secrets and the Russians they wanted in in July 1988 the Soviets launched two probes Phobos 1 and Phobos 2 these were sophisticated spacecraft equipped with state-of-the-art [Music] instruments the mission was to study the Martian environment and gather detailed images of phobos's surface and it wasn't just the Soviets who wanted this data the mission was backed by 14 other nations including the us but the Phobos Mission got off to a rough start before Phobos 1

could gather any data an operative on Earth entered the wrong command the probe turned away from its source of power the sun someone fat fingered the probe yep fat fingered the probe stop it no control Z nope with no power and no radio contact Phobos 1 was lost to space but Phobos 2 was working perfectly for a few months anyway however on March 28 1989 just as Phobos 2 Was preparing to make its closest approach to Phobos something unexpected happened it started going haywire the probe signals weakened and it began acting strange instead of maintaining

its steady course the probe suddenly began spinning out of control the control center couldn't explain it this this was space things don't randomly start spinning unless they're hit by something they scrambled to maintain contact with the pro but no success fobos 2 sent back one final image then everything went black after days of failed attempts to reconnect with Phobos 2 the mission officially ended the probe's sudden failure was allegedly caused by a computer malfun function allegedly well before it failed Phobos 2 had been sending data to Earth the last transmission from Phobos 2 contained a

series of perplexing images and the last image Phobos 2 sent to Earth provided proof that it didn't fail because of a simple computer malfunction fobos 2 was attacked by a [Music] UFO after the mission ended the Russian government kept the majority of the photos secret but this was a multinational Cooperative effort the other countries involved didn't agree to the secrecy to put it nicely so after increasing pressure the Russians finally released the photos taken by Phobos 2 well most of them the Russians kept the last four frames of the photo dump classified seconds before fobos

2 went MIA it snapped a photo of its attacker it depicted a long elliptical shadow cast on the surface Phobos a massive oval object was hovering above the Moon the shadow shape and size could not be explained as natural phenomena some scientists thought it might be a shadow or trick of the eye While others speculated that it was an object either way something was there that shouldn't have been but without those last four class specified photos it was hard to know exactly what it was then in 1991 Soviet test pilot Maria papovich revealed one of

those top secret Russian photos and suddenly it all became clear in the picture along eliptical object is clearly seen approaching Phobos it's estimated to be 15 Mi long on a recent sightings episode we brought you information about the possible destruction of a Soviet space probe called Phobos by a UFO Phobos 2 was sending back pictures is usual when suddenly the last picture from Phobos arrived on that picture you could see Phobos the Martian Moon and an ablong shaped object the object cast a passing Shadow on Mars and it's interesting to note that these photos were

taken with infrared cameras infrared is used to measure the temperature of objects if the object were a shadow or trick of the eye it wouldn't appear in an infrared photo the question then became what was it and why would it attack the Phobos 2 probe and cut its transmission did it think the probe was a threat or was there something it was trying to hide because Phobos 2 sent back another very interesting image it was a close-up photo of a region of Mars and in that photo is what looks like the ruins of an ancient

city [Music] Mars's Tiny Moon fobos hold some massive secrets secrets that something or someone doesn't want us to see over the decades probes and satellites sent to Mars and its moons have captured images of things that don't look exactly natural perhaps the most famous is the so-call face on Mars face on Mars link below the Bas is located in a region of Mars called Sidonia it was first photographed by NASA's Viking one Orbiter in 1976 some believe it's evidence of an ancient Martian civilization others think it's a message or a marker left by alien visitors

nuni could be according to the Anunnaki Legend not only did they stop on Mars on the way to Earth they set up an outpost there anaki link below also in the Sidonia region and elsewhere there are a number of objects that look like artificial constructions including pyramids obelisks even the ruins of ancient cities one of the most intriguing structures is a pyramid in the region called elisium plena the elisian pyramid is a massive structure that rises nearly a mile above the surrounding plane many believe that the pyramid shape and Alignment are too precise to be

a natural formation the only explanation is that it was constructed by intelligent beings other puzzling features on Mars include the so-called tubes and glass tunnels that form a network across the planet's surface some say this is the work of an alien architect and evidence of underground Martian [Music] cities Phobos orbits very close to Mars if there was a civilization on Mars at some point you'd expect to see anomalies on BOS as well and we do Phobos has deep uniform grooves the grooves are not only parallel to each other but they're nearly the same width 700

to 1,000 ft and they're the same depth 75 to 90 ft not only that but they're brighter than the rest of the surface as if they were made from a different material and over the years new grooves have formed grooves that suddenly appeared in between space missions but it wasn't just the Tiny Moon holding Secret the Phobos 2 probe also took pictures of what looked like remnants of a city on Mars again you can see rectangular shapes and even grid-like straight lines as if there were buildings and Roads below now scientists claim these anomalies on

Mars and Phobos are a trick of the eye nothing more than paradia our tendency to see patterns in random images phobos's craters too are strange the largest is Stickney crater named after the wife of as of Hall the man who discovered the moons Stickney crater is a massive six miles wide it takes up almost half of phobos's surface the rim is so circular that it almost looks fake Believers of the hobos Theory believe that the Creator is the entrance to the moon's cavernous interior Caverns potentially harboring alien life and only a short distance from the

giant crater is the Phobos Monolith it's 279 ft across and 300 ft tall It's oddly bright and oddly rectangular nature likes circles and curves not sharp edges and straight lines American astronaut buz Aldren even talks about the monolith we should go boldly where man has not gone before fly by to comets visit asteroids visit the moon of Mars there's a monolith there a very unusual structure on this little potato shaped object that that goes around Mars once in 7 hours when people find out about that they're going to say who put that there some say

the monolith is an artifact a remnant of an ancient Martian civilization placed near the Creator as a beacon or marker but there is another theory about the monolith that it's evidence of technology technology shared between worlds because there is structure on fobos and Mars that are almost identical to structures found right here on Earth in the Sidonia region of Mars along with the face and what appear to be buildings a number of obelisks have been identified these structures seem to be arranged in a precise geometric pattern forming a series of interlocking triangles and hexagons too

precise and too consist to result from natural processes but when you think of obelisks you can't help but think of ancient Egypt and you can't talk about Egypt without mentioning the Great Pyramid of Giza there's a theory that the Great Pyramid was not a tomb or monument that it was an ancient power plant and there's scientific evidence to support the theory that the pyramid created electricity a lot of it Nicola Tesla even tried to replicate this technology Tesla pyramid link below so now we have to consider the electric universe theory electric universe theory link well

I you know it's below this Theory says that electricity not gravity is the dominant force in the universe everything is part of a vast interconnected web of electric currents every planet every Star and every Galaxy all connected and that electricity is all around us everywhere now if that's true the pyramids around the world like those in egyp Egypt Mexico Indonesia and Peru could have been tapping into this electricity field this is 0 point energy which exists in all Quantum Fields it's all around us all the time the pyramids could have harnessed that energy and transmitted

it around the world to the obelisks which were like power substations and if that's true then the pyramids and obelisks on Mars could have served the same purpose remember Mars used to have water and an atmosphere just like Earth and maybe the monolith on Phobos was another one of those power substations harnessing Zer Point Energy and delivering power to whatever's inside and maybe when Mars lost its atmosphere it short circuited the Z point energy field connecting Mars to Earth but there's no way to tell no scientists will look into Zer Point Energy well that's not

completely true quite a few scientists have investigated 0 point energy some have even patented devices that they claim could tap into this energy field and provide free electricity to everyone everywhere on the planet we even have an episode coming up on these devices but spoiler alert all those patents were seized by the government and all the scientists are [Music] dead so what exactly happened to Phobos 2 why did it start spinning out of control why did Russia keep the photos classified for so long what are the anomalies and who or what created them well like

the Mars episode this one is difficult to debunk but not impossible let's start with the facts all the Mysteries surrounding Phobos 2's sudden failure is true in 1989 Soviet scientists published a report in nature magazine about Phobos 2's experiments only three paragraphs in the 37-page report discuss the probe's loss they admit not only that it was spinning but that it was possibly struck by something now whether it was targeted by an alien ship we don't know but what the Russians downplayed was it was spinning before it got to Mars fobos 1 went dark that's true

and Phobos 2 was malfunctioning the whole time because it was spinning Phobos 2 was transmitting data data all over the place the data that did get back to Earth was messy the cameras weren't working properly the giant 35m long cigar-shaped UFO it was a data glitch but the story is worse than that remember how Marina papovich came forward as a whistleblower she said that the image of the giant cigar-shaped craft was the last one sent before the probe went dark well that wasn't true there were actually 57 more images sent back to Earth for two

more days in those images you see a white line going down the center of every frame taken with the infrared camera no matter what the camera was pointing at when Phobos took pictures of Jupiter there's the white line again white Lin Vision dreams of passion going through my mind and all the while I think of you grandm flesh I know who it is okay so there was no cigar shape UFO that was a glitch with the infrared lens when we look at the same pictures that aren't infrared There's No Object now most articles and videos

about the Phobos 2 incident will say that Marina papovich was a cosmina who'd been to space but she wasn't but she really was a test pilot and she was a rock star she reached the rank of Colonel and was the first Soviet woman to break the sound barrier but she was also a big-time UFO believer and whether she was lying about the image or is just misinformed and excited I'm not sure but I am sure she wasn't a whistleblower she had permission to show those photos the Soviet government loved her when she passed away in

2017 she was buried with full military honors now also to sell the Phobos 2 story that clip of Buzz Aldren talking about the monolith is often used but it's never used in full it's usually cut off at who put it there implying that an alien race put it there but if you listen to the full CLI he thinks it's a natural formation when people find out about that they're going to say who put that there who put that there well uh the universe put it there if you choose God put it there the elliptical Shadow

is a little harder to debunk we do have newer images that show the shadow of Phobos on Mars and the shapes are identical now UFO Believers will say this is impossible because the original phobo Shadow has sharp edges but that photo had been retouched specifically it was sharpened if you look at the original unsharpened image it looks exactly like current photos it's not a UFO okay but is Phobos Hollow yep probably not damn it Phobos was formed when a bunch of small asteroids Clump together so while it's not Hollow it's full of caverns and empty

spaces the grooves on Phobos are weird because Mars's other Moon demos doesn't have them last year a paper was published in the planetary science journal it says the grooves are probably caused by Mars's gravity which squeezes and pulls on the moon the grooves are where the parts of the surface of Phobos are falling into those empty spaces causing channels and canyons now this is a sign that Phobos will eventually be pulled apart and this is expected to happen in about 40 million years yeah but what about the the sheet metal skin well the paper addresses

this too when Phobos is pulled and squeezed it throws up dust over millions of years this dust settles fairly evenly around the surface so Phobos is covered in a thin layer of skin but it's not cheap metal it's dust now the monolith is there yes but it's not an unusual feature monoliths like this are found all over the solar system including our moon all built by the aliens for the uh the space internet uh could be aliens I'm not saying it's not but I am saying monoliths are common they could be common because they were

placed there we don't know the pictures of the city of Mars is probably paradia but until we go there we won't know for sure now the glass tubes and tunnels actually were explored and they're not glass tubes at all just rock formations I get so annoyed when everything is debunked well I don't know if I debunked everything but I think I presented enough information to help you separate the facts from a lot of wrong information that's floating around the internet there's still so much we don't know about Mars regardless Phobos is still a very interesting

object and scientists believe evidence of life could be there all we have to do is land a probe there and check it may be a coincidence but every mission to land on Phobos has failed but we're not giving up this September Japan is sending a probe to Mars and that probe is scheduled to collect samples from Phobos late next year and that probe could answer all the questions about this mysterious moon unless the alien shoot it down thanks so much for hanging out today my name is AJ that's eish ghost best is what do you
