13. Ancient astronauts

Shklovski and Sagan
A Dogū figurine from Japan (dated 1000–400 BCE). Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that these may represent extraterrestrial visitors.

In their 1966 book Intelligent Life in the Universe astrophysicists I.S. Shklovski and Carl Sagan devote a chapter to arguments that scientists and historians should seriously consider the possibility that extraterrestrial contact occurred during recorded history. However, Shklovski and Sagan stressed that these ideas were speculative and unproven.

I don't personally subscribe to this theory, however both my husband and my granddaughter are convinced.
