Maria Wheatley's point about dowsing is that its popular association with finding underground water is only a fraction of what it detects: grid systems, ley lines, earth energies, and magnetic pulses, and when applied at sacred sites, it can reveal the invisible properties beneath the ground that she believes gave ancient temples their magnetic, electromagnetic, and sometimes acoustic power.

![William Henry Traces the Shroud of Turin to a Town Near Gobekli Tepe
William Henry has led more than 30 tours to Egypt since 2003, and joins Matt Barone to preview two 2026 pilgrimages: a first-time Turkey trip in September and a 12-day return to Egypt in October.
William describes his approach as fundamentally different from conventional tourism, chartering the Sun Boat III, a private luxury yacht limited to 32 guests and used only by Yale, Stanford, Harvard, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where staff refer to guests as souls rather than passengers. His tours evolved from an early 2000s Stargate Egypt theme, identifying portals at ancient sites, into what he now calls Star Walker work, actively engaging those portals rather than simply pointing them out. He shares two personal Karnak Temple stories: a legend of a golden boat manifesting in the sacred lake that reduced two tour guests to tears when the lake itself appeared to swirl with stars, and a moment where he noticed a 750-ton obelisk, an ancient palm tree symbolising the cosmic axis, a mosque minaret, a church cross, and a 5G tower all visible in a single sightline, a visual timeline of human civilisations evolving relationship with the sky.
The Turkey pilgrimage, called In the Footsteps of the Magi, runs September 1st through 12th, covering Göbekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe, Cappadocia, Sanliurfa, Harran, and Istanbul, tracing the Revelation of the Magi text believed to originate in ancient Edessa, describing a cave of treasures containing the Ark of the Covenant and Adams robe. William connects Sanliurfa directly to his decades of Shroud of Turin research, identifying it as the city where the shroud was taken after the crucifixion and stored until the fourth or fifth century, referencing Byzantine-era depictions of angels wearing cloaks marked with the same L-shaped burn pattern found on the shroud itself. The pilgrimage includes Mount Nemrut, home to a roughly 3,000-foot pyramidal structure built by Antiochus IV, in the same region as Göbekli Tepe though not contemporary with it.
William closes on why the timing matters: as humanity faces a technological crossroads with AI and transhumanism, he believes ancient sites hold encoded answers not just to what happened in the past, but to what humanity can become, an answer he summarises in a single phrase, star walkers.

![He Still Thinks It Was an Impact. Just Not the Younger Dryas.
Chris Cottrell of Dabblers Den returns to catch up with Becket Fusik a year after his last Cosmic Summit appearance, and the update is substantial: two new books, a peer reviewed paper, and a research direction that has shifted since they last spoke.
Chris first encountered Carolina Bays in college around 2000, rediscovered them while pursuing a geoscience masters degree in 2015, and started his YouTube channel to make the research more accessible. After three years presenting at Cosmic Summit, including sharing the stage with Antonio Zamora, Chris spent five years convinced the Bays were Younger Dryas impact features, before evidence around sea level and coastal geology pulled him toward a different conclusion. That shift became the subject of his first book, The Enigma of the Carolina Bays.
His second book, Gone But Not Forgotten, moves away from the Bays entirely and into the megafauna extinction itself, roughly 73% of North American megafauna lost within the Younger Dryas timeframe, animals humans actually lived alongside, not distant fossils like dinosaurs. The Clovis culture, often blamed for hunting them to extinction, disappeared at the same moment. Chris used AI tools for editing and illustration throughout both books, and is now working on audiobook versions and additional peer reviewed papers, self-funding the publication costs through book sales.
The name Dabblers Den traces back to a student who diagnosed Chriss pattern before he was formally diagnosed with ADHD as an adult: someone who picks up new subjects, goes deep, and moves on, which he has now channelled into a decade of sustained Carolina Bays research. He closes with his pick for which extinct megafauna he would want back: a mammoth, raised from birth in his backyard.

![Why Is There Mercury Hidden Inside Pyramids Worldwide?
Get Your tickets to TeslaTech: Teslatech2026.com
Karen Elkins has been publishing Science to Sage magazine for fifteen years and helping Steve Elswick run Tesla Tech for even longer. She joins Becket Fusik ahead of Tesla Tech 2026 to introduce the subject of her presentation: the mercury red thread, a pattern she identified running through ancient technology across multiple unconnected civilisations, and what it suggests about the knowledge those civilisations possessed.
The thread started with the terracotta soldiers of China, where Karen noticed that the base of the structure is a pyramid, and that pyramid contains mercury. The same pattern appeared independently in Mesoamerica: a pyramid, the same serpent or dragon iconography, mercury at the base. The question that followed was not just about geography but about capability: processing cinnabar and working with mercury is not something that emerges accidentally from a primitive culture. Someone understood it, and the consistency of the mercury signature across civilisations with no documented contact points toward a common origin of knowledge rather than parallel independent discovery.
The thread extends into electrical technology. The Baghdad Battery, a clay structure with internal metal components, appears alongside relief imagery that looks like a tube with a lotus base, consistent with an ancient light or power device. Karen mapped the electrical circuits from Indian metallurgical texts onto these images and found they fit. Tesla himself used mercury in his rectifier and produced the same blue light described in the Dendera reliefs. Indian Vimana texts describe mercury as what creates lift and what creates plasma in ancient aerial craft. And a researcher named William Sosa, who will be presenting alongside Karen at Tesla Tech, has recreated an ancient battery using mercury as the key ingredient and will be bringing prototypes to the conference.
Karens broader argument is that we converted fact into myth, and that the sky gods, giants, and divine bloodlines described across every ancient culture from the Ethiopian Bible to Mesopotamian texts to the biblical Nephilim represent something more literal than academia has been willing to engage with. The oral tradition, as she and Becket both note, has a better track record of accuracy than the institutions that dismissed it.
Tesla Tech 2026 runs August 12th to 16th in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with in-person and livestream tickets available at TeslaTech2026.com. Karen will be presenting with William Sosa. Also on the speaker list: Moray King, Dr. John E. Brandenburg, Dr. Weiping Yu, Dr. Thorsten Ludwig, Bob Greenyer, David E. Martin, and two NASA affiliated researchers coming with ideas well outside the institutional norm.

![The Rendlesham Code He Couldnt Read for 30 Years
In December 1980, US Air Force Sergeant Jim Penniston was dispatched from RAF Bentwaters into Rendlesham Forest after radar lost contact with a bogey over the base. He was authorised to deploy under the Status of Forces agreement, had his crash kit with him, and fully expected to find a downed aircraft. What he found instead has remained one of the most significant and most studied close encounter cases in the history of the UAP phenomenon.
Jim walks Matt Barone through the full sequence: the laboured movement through the forest perimeter, like walking chest-deep in water, which dissipated as the craft came into view. The dome of lights that narrowed down to a black triangular silhouette, smooth-skinned, void of intakes, exhaust, rivets, or any crew compartment. Three beams of light holding the craft level above the ground, which would not move at all when he pushed against it. The glyphs along the exterior, which he sketched into his notebook after making a full 360-degree circuit of the craft. And the moment he placed his hand on the largest glyph, a circle enclosing a triangle with three smaller circles inside, and received what he now knows was a binary transmission of ones and zeros, experienced as an internal flash he knew was not visual because his night vision remained intact the moment he withdrew his hand.
The craft departed without sound, without air displacement, passing silently through trees spaced nine feet apart that should have been physically impossible for it to navigate, rising to the forest canopy and accelerating away at a speed Jim describes as a blink of an eye. He held the binary code top secret for thirteen years, keeping his oath with complete fidelity, until the British and American governments issued a statement saying nothing happened at Rendlesham that night, which in his view cleared him to speak. The two questions he left the forest with in 1980, who are they and where do they come from, remain unanswered. What he is certain of is what they are not: not any aircraft in the human inventory, not any technology that exists today, and not anything he or anyone else in his prior role at SAC headquarters had ever encountered or been briefed on.
Matt Barones closing read is worth keeping: no intakes, no exhaust, no rivets, silent through trees it was physically too large to fit between, and a page of ones and zeros sitting in a notebook for thirty years before anyone understood what binary code was doing there. Forty-five years later Jim Pennistons two questions are still the same ones the entire disclosure community is asking. Who are they and where did they come from.

![Jim Viera & Greg Maestro Say Giants Were Real
Jim Viera has been in this game for thirty years, hosted shows for the History Channel, appeared on Ancient Aliens, and spent fifteen years working on a book that he freely admits sounds insane. Greg Maestro is a filmmaker, developer, and creative who ran towards AI when everyone else ran away, and whose contribution to the giants conversation started with a man in San Diego who said he used to have six fingers on both hands and six toes on both feet. Together, brought together by Hugh Newman, they have written Footprints of the Gods, a worldwide data set on polydactyly, giants, and the divine across oral tradition, rock art, and academic literature.
The books central argument is not that some people in history were very tall. It is that a consistent global pattern of giants with six fingers and six toes appears across every indigenous tradition on Earth, from Aboriginal Australians repainting a thirty-foot six-fingered giant in Arnhem Land, to the giant of Gath in the Bible, to Gilgamesh in Mesopotamia, to the most recently unearthed ancient settlements which Istanbul University archaeologists are describing as yielding humanoids with strange numbers of fingers, never five. Jims point is that dismissing this requires dismissing the oral traditions of virtually every indigenous culture that exists, and that the academic sources doing the most interesting work on this, at Chaco Canyon, Teotihuacan, Palenque, and the 9,000-year-old shaman site in Jerusalem, are reaching the same conclusion: in the ancient world, extra digits were not a medical condition to be treated. They were a mark of the divine.
His deeper argument is that giants do not fit within natural evolution, and that this is the point: the oldest creation traditions across the planet, Viracocha in Peru, the Anunnaki in Mesopotamia, and their equivalents everywhere else, describe giants as the products of engineering gods, terraforming wisdom-bringers, androgynous genetic architects who created them and then, in most traditions, destroyed them in a flood. Watson and Crick themselves, Jim notes, observed that Homo sapiens appear to have been genetically engineered. Where the evidence takes you, he says, is where he goes.
Greg brings the AI dimension. He has boardrooms of AI agents, has used the technology to place Jim alongside Gilgamesh in ancient Mesopotamia, and is developing augmented reality tools that would let people hold their phone up and see a giant standing next to them to scale. His own encounter with polydactyly, the man who said he used to have six fingers on both hands and six toes on both feet, removed at birth, along with his brother, who identified Sirius as the constellation that resonated with him, is the kind of moment Greg says crystallised what the book is actually pointing at.
Footprints of the Gods is available on Amazon in paperback and e-book. Jim and Greg are author of the month on Graham Hancocks website.
