The find of archaeologists during excavations in the Mayan city made researchers, paleontologists and ufologists, and experts in the field of aerospace argue.
In the middle of the XX century in the ancient Mayan city - Palenque, excavations were carried out by archaeologists. Suddenly, the researchers stumbled upon a cache in one of the pyramids. As it turned out later, the cache was a tomb in which the sarcophagus of one of the rulers of the tribe was found. Remains were found in the sarcophagus. Pakal, that was the name of the ruler, was mummified, so the remains were well preserved. Measurements were made of the age of the remains. The results showed that they are 1,300 years old.
All the data obtained during the expedition was published and controversy began, but the controversy did not affect the remains of the ruler, but the tomb cover of the sarcophagus. It depicted … a flying jet with a pilot inside.
The drawing on the cover really has a lot in common with the schematic design of the aircraft: the pilot is in the position in which modern cosmonauts take off, since this position is very optimal for the human body at the time of stress. The pilot is followed by an engine from which a fiery jet escapes. Some branches are suitable for the pilot himself, which strongly resemble wires, hoses. The legs and arms are depicted as if they were involved in the control of the apparatus, and the pilot's equipment is completely different from the Mayan clothing.
You can see the diagram of the aircraft much better in the photo with the drawing.
Promotional video:
The version of the aircraft was supported by some Japanese specialists and the Italian Pinotti. The figure undoubtedly depicts an astronaut piloting a jet apparatus for individual flights, the apparatus is shown in section, and a jet of jet gases is clearly visible in its lower part.
An American aircraft designer put the scheme from the sarcophagus into a computer for modeling and converted a flat image into a three-dimensional one, and received a three-dimensional model of a spacecraft with an engine and a control panel.
The famous Swiss researcher and founder of the theory of paleocontact Erich von Deniken added:
In the middle of the drawing is a seated person leaning forward. He wears a helmet on his head, from which wires or hoses go back. A device resembling an oxygen apparatus is located in front of the face.
His hands manipulate the control devices. With his right hand he presses a button or a key, and with his left he squeezes the lever (indeed, the second finger is not visible in the figure). The heel of the left foot rests on the pedals. Attention is drawn to the fact that the Indian on the plate is dressed very modernly. He has a sweater collar around his neck. Knitted elastic cuffs finish on the sleeves. Buckled safety belt at the waist. Pants fit the legs like leggings. But this is how modern cosmonauts dress when they are not in spacesuits … … In front of the cosmonaut strapped to the pilot's seat there are breathing apparatus, a control panel for the power plant and communication devices, manual control levers for the spacecraft and external observation devices. Further ahead, there are two electromagnets, which are most likelycreate a magnetic field around the head of the apparatus to scatter cosmic dust and micrometeorites. Behind the astronaut is a nuclear reactor. Next to it are schematically shown the nuclei of hydrogen and helium atoms, as well as their synthesis. Finally, a jet flame emanates from the aft of the apparatus …
The official science was skeptical and stated that the image on the lid of Pakal's sarcophagus is nothing but a terrible death mask from which the tree of life grows, and at the very top of which the quetzal bird sits.
The theory of the flying machine on the lid of the Palamas sarcophagus may well sound scientific, since it is not the only one of its kind in the Maya and is one of several dozen similar secrets. And this should already be alarming.
For example, the riddle of the ruins of the city of Lubaantung, where all the buildings were erected from stone without mortars and were fitted to each other with such precision that even a blade cannot penetrate, and researchers cannot today explain how the Maya could have built such structures ?! Or from what civilization could they have inherited such buildings ?! Even today, this is technically an incredibly difficult task.
Therefore, against the background of such Mayan mysteries, the scheme of a flying jet device no longer seems like a fantasy.
