• Did Ancient Astronauts Visit Earth in Fiery Chariots?
• Was there an Intergalactic "Battle of the Gods" over Earth?
• Did a Nuclear Catastrophe occur in Ancient Times?
• Was the Ark of the Covenant a Mini-Reactor?
• Did Powers from Outer Space Genetically Manipulate Neanderthal Man?
• Was there once a Universal Language on Earth?
• Who Built Ancient Subterranean Turkish Cities for over One Million People?

These are only a few of the intriguing questions posed by Erich von Däniken, international explorer and Swiss author of the phenomenal best-seller Chariots of the Gods? and twenty other books which have sold nearly 57 million copies in 31 languages around the world.

From Mr. von Däniken's books two feature-length films have been produced: Chariots of the Gods? and Messages of the Gods. He won instant fame in the United States as a result of the NBC television special, In Search of Ancient Astronauts, based upon his first book. His works inspired the founding of the Ancient Astronaut Society, an international association devoted to studying the questions he has raised.

Currently, Mr. von Däniken is featured in a television series in Europe based upon his research into the mysteries of our planet.

Internationally known for his spectacular slide presentations, Mr. von Däniken will treat The Eclectic Viewpoint audience to one of his rare appearances in the United States. He will present a selection of photographic slides from his collection of over 40,000 and will also show excerpts from some of the most unusual segments in his television series. Some of the selections will include the newest discoveries inside the Great Pyramid, including an exploratory robot sent into a small shaft leading to a secret chamber deep within the pyramid. Also shown will be megalithic temples astronomically oriented on the Island of Malta in the Mediterranean Sea; lines connecting prehistoric sites stretching for thousands of miles across Europe; and subterranean Turkish cities (built for over one million people) which are connected with underground tunnels.

Demonstrating with superb new computer animations, he will show reconstructions of Vimanas, the flying vehicles of ancient India, and also the gigantic platforms of Puma Punku in Bolivia.

Mr. von Däniken will show unique slides of the Peruvian Plains of Nazca never seen in the United States. He will speak about electricity in ancient Egypt and will demonstrate that the thousands of menhirs in French Brittany are in reality a geometrical message produced by unknown mathematicians some 7,000 years ago.

Indefatigable world traveler and explorer, Erich von Däniken has lost count of the miles he has covered on foot or horseback, in jeeps, canoes, and motorboats in his quest for answers.

He draws his evidence from all over the world — from the Turkish mountains where carved monoliths and giant stone heads mysteriously survive the centuries to the secret caves of Ecuador where precious remnants of bygone ages still lie hidden, to the heart of equatorial Africa where the "primitive" Dogon tribe has been familiar for centuries with the complex movements of Sirius — a star only understood by Western astronomers since the invention of the radio telescope.

Searching the ancient documents of the Hindus, the Jews, and the Christians, Mr. von Däniken examines religions, mythologies, and legends to find within all of them an astonishing common theme: "human" gods, heavenly chariots, "space suits," floods, and disasters.

Do not miss this exciting, rare opportunity to experience Erich von Däniken as he demonstrates that most of the mysteries of Earth can be explained with one answer: visitations from space by those beings whom we now call "ancient astronauts."
