There's a lot of weird stuff there.
So there's also like ancient civilizations that have these myths of us existing somewhere else and coming here.
But you have to think, if human beings...
develop somewhere else, and they reach some high level of sophistication, and then they experience some cataclysmic disaster that completely destroyed their environment, which is what Mars is, right?
So let's assume that Mars was at one point in time, was habitable, and that life existed.
And we know it was at one point in time.
We know there was water on Mars.
We know there's some sort of evidence of at least some sort of very primitive biological life on Mars.
If they got to a point where they said, hey, this fucking place is falling apart, but this earth spot looks pretty good.
And they go there, but then cataclysms happen on Earth and no one remembers because all your information is on hard drives.
And then you have to rebuild society.
And so you're re-remembering.
And so you have all these myths of how everything started, whether it's Adam and Eve or the Great Flood or whatever these things are that we pass down through oral tradition for hundreds of years and then eventually write it down.
And then people try to decipher what it means.
And they sit in church and try to go over, what did it mean?
Like, what does this mean?
Like, what is the real origin of all these stories?
