I thought I saw something

I knew it!

How did you learn about the existence

of a town?

What is that?

Read what it says

This is what you wrote down yesterday?

Do you see why we didn't tell you anything?

Marcela...

I believe in what happened to

Carlos yesterday

But how...

...how could this have happened, I don't understand

And you see the town does exist... see

What is this about "Ciudad Blanca"?

And Oxalc?... Is that a name?

It's coming from over there

If I'm not mistaken... militaries

It's connected to the solar panel

Where could they have gotten that from?

It's a photovoltaic panel...

...these panels weren't used until the 70's or 80's... I

think

But all the military equipment here is from...

...the 1950s maybe

That's my point it doesn't match

Marce...

...could we connect Carlos, cell phone

to this?

We would need a voltage regulator

- Doc

- What happened?

The cell phone

What happened to it?

I packed it here and now it's gone

Carlos...

...did you leave it where we camped?

No, I put it in here, I am sure

It could have fallen

Sh*t

You're not going to eat Marce?

I'm not hungry

You're worried about your grandmother?

She's very sick and...

I can't remember anything after the hospital...

they said she was getting better but...

She'll be fine Marce, you have to have faith

I lost that faith a long time ago Carlos

That's the reason then

The reason for what?

Why you're so sceptical

Sceptical is not exactly the word Carlos...

...realistic

I was Catholic

my grandmother was very devout... look

my mother... a faithful Catholic...

...and I will never forget how much I saw her suffer

before she died

I was 12 and I think...

what good did it do her to pray for her health every

night...

...for us to pray for that

what good was it for her to spend a lifetime stuck in

church

What are you doing Doc?

This is all here for a reason...

maybe they want us to communicate with them

Listen...

What is it?

I don't know... but we are tuning something

- Try to fine tune it

- Yes, I'm trying

The notepad

Sounds like a radio station

...amplitude modulation...

It's a radio station

What good does it do us?

I don't know... but it's the only thing that we can tune in

with these...

...limited stations

...these are the headlines that have been circling the

world...

...in the last few hours...

...this just in, we received a cable with last minute

news...

...it reads:

...today December 28th, 1956...

1956?

...there is talk in the U.S. of lights

...lights in the sky, being reported just a few hours ago...

...people...

...around...

...doing... strange and slow movements...

Doesn't make sense that we are listening to a station

from 1956

It's strange

- Could it be a recording... or

- What else could it be?...

When I was studying quantum astronomy...

...we saw NASA experiments demonstrating...

...lost radio waves in space that managed to return to

earth many years later

So what you're thinking is that we're

receiving a lagged transmission

Yes, of course

What's this?

It's handwritten

See if it contains any information which could be useful

to us

It's written in English

It's a diary

Does it belong to the army personnel?

are you going to read it?

Well...since the hotel room doesn't have a TV, I have all

night to read

Listen, it's coming back in

...What is the US government hiding?...

...What kind of information is this?...

...Why are the governments of the world covering this

up?...

Tegucigalpa, some days before

Let's get to the point...

you want to... negotiate

Sorry Mr. President, with all due respect that you

deserve...

before answering your questions...

...we need some answers...

...how did you learn of the Project for example?

Diego Cuevas...

...medical doctor, specializes in clinical biochemistry...

To put it simply I specialize in

human genetics...

...I have led experiments worldwide

Let's see...

...Dr. Carlos Puerto...

...graduate of the University of Science in California

physical engineer

astronomy studies in Chile

three years of work at the National Astronomical

Observatory in Chile...

...in systems and coordinates...

Marcela Jimenez...

...graduate of the University of Science

in California

cum laude

physical engineer

and here we have...

...Dr. Roberto Hernndez

- Doctor in quantum physics

- Yes sir

- Advanced studies in anthropology and history

- Yes...

You currently head the physics department of the

University of El Salvador

and... have been...

...teaching for almost 20 years at the University of

Science in California

the truth is...

...you all amaze me

all physicists... mathematicians...

scholars... I'm afraid of you all

What happened with the Project that you presented?

They don't want anything to do with me...

they don't want to give us the go ahead to continue with

this

And who is doing that?

The committee of global scientists

What reason did they give you?

Well...

Well they said that the data and formulas...

...were wrong

And that we didn't have sufficient grounds

Would you believe me if I told you that we could open

those doors again?

Get to the point then...

Mr. President...

...what would we have to do to make

that happen?

If I may Mr. President...

there is something...

this is an official letter from the committee... which

pledges their full support

this is a contract...

...read it well

this is a commitment from our government to fulfill all that

you ask for...

...and in the last page...

...are the signatures from all the members of the

committee of global scientists

Take it as a gesture of thanks

and...

how much will this political gesture cost us?

Tomorrow...

at 0600 hours you will be taken...

...to a camp located in the Mosquitia

there you will be prepared for

the work ahead

And by any chance does this have to do with a video

that's in your possession?

You see...

...we want your help, but you must understand that this

work is classified

you can think of it as a state secret if you will

no one else should know about this

everything is stipulated in the contract that you will sign

madam and gentlemen what you will see and what you

will experience there...

no one else should know... understand?

Ready?

Where to now?

Over there

And if we don't find anything?

Our last hope was that radio

There are a lot of interesting things

written here

So what?... You read all of it?

Everything Doc, I didn't sleep

Is there any information of use to us?

Well I think so

That's good

But I'll fill you in on the way

- Perfect, which way?

- This way

I'm going to read you a translated summary

Ok...

It was night time...

...the coordinates showed a spot near the Bahamas...

...we didn't know how far we were

a storm started and then everything was completely

overcast...

...we had almost zero percent visibility

Is there something that can actually help us?

Then the storm grew stronger...
