Who are we? Where did we come from?How did we get here? All the answers are here, bigger than life, and more powerful than fiction, presented by the NASA scientist whose Apollo computer program got us to the moon: -The secret of Atlantis -The significance of the Great Pyramid at Giza -The lost treasures of ancient Egypt -The puzzle of the Mayan Calendar -The truth about astrology -The world beneath the polar ice caps -Stonehenge, miracle of mathematics -The Rhodes Calendar -The Mystery of the Maltese Cross -What the Apollo and Gemini astronauts REALLY saw Using sophisticated computers, new and previously overlooked information, and his direct experience as the NASA scientist who designed and built the Apollo communications and data-processing system, Maurice Chatelain amasses starting and convincing evidence that our ancestors came from outer space. "A mathematical approach, as well as an archaeological overview... Should prove to be considerably more durable than Erich von Daniken's 'Chariots of the Gods.' A worthwhile contribution to serious students of the ancient mysteries, by a real scientist..." -The Dayton Daily News

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Exciting and provocative . . . A tour de force of a book that begs to be seen as well as to be read.”—The Washington Post Book World World renowned scientist Carl Sagan and acclaimed author Ann Druyan have written a Roots for the human species, a lucid and riveting account of how humans got to be the way we are. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a thrilling saga that starts with the origin of the Earth. It shows with humor and drama that many of our key traits—self-awareness, technology, family ties, submission to authority, hatred for those a little different from ourselves, reason, and ethics—are rooted in the deep past, and illuminated by our kinship with other animals. Sagan and Druyan conduct a breathtaking journey through space and time, zeroing in on critical turning points in evolutionary history, and tracing the origins of sex, altruism, violence, rape, and dominance. Their book culminates in a stunningly original examination of the connection between primate and human traits. Astonishing in its scope, brilliant in its insights, and an absolutely compelling read, Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a triumph of popular science.

"Anthony Aveni reveals how !Kung and Mursi hunter-gatherers depended on signals in the sky for their survival and sustenance; how Polynesian sailors navigated a seemingly limitless watery world by star bearings; how social cohesion in cultures as diverse as the Pawnee and the Inca was mirrored in celestial imagery; and how the cosmic connection between the arrangement of Chinese and Aztec cities and the constellations served as an expression of political authority." "For most of human history, people found meaning in the dance of the cosmic denizens. Today, many aspects of this intimate contact between daily life and what happens in the sky have disappeared. Did our ancestors have an understanding of the cosmos that we ourselves lack? How and why did it all happen? These are the questions addressed in this engaging and erudite book."--BOOK JACKET.

Our Cosmic Ancestors is a dynamic work unraveling the messages of these 'universal astronauts' and decoding the symbols and visual mathematics they have left for us in the Egyptian Pyramids, Stonehenge, the Mayan calendar, the Maltese Cross and the Sumerian zodiac. The book is captivating reading from beginning to end. However Mr. Chatelain's purpose in sharing these exciting discoveries lies in the hope that all humans will extend their horizons, to release fear of the unknown just enough that another generation will exhibit growing curiosity to continue the search for signs of purposeful nurturing of this planet.
