Ancient Aliens (2010)
S03E01 Aliens and the Old West
Episode Overview
Theories surrounding ancient astronauts suggest that extraterrestrial visitors have been part of Earth’s history for millennia. Could remnants of their presence be found within the lore of America's Wild West? In Aurora, Texas, locals allege that an alien's remains rest in a cemetery, a relic from a 1897 crash. Utah's petroglyphs showcase peculiar figures resembling astronauts. Ranchers in southern California recounted sightings of a mysterious entity emerging from Elizabeth Lake, while in Tombstone, Arizona—home to Wyatt Earp and the infamous O.K. Corral shootout—cowboys insisted they fired at a colossal metallic bird. Are these mere legends, or did the pioneers and Native Americans truly encounter beings from another world?
