With his enormous range of scholarly pursuits the 17th century polymath Athanasius Kircher has been hailed as the last Renaissance man and “the master of hundred arts”. John Glassie looks at one of Kircher’s great masterworks Mundus Subterraneus and how it was inspired by a subterranean adventure Kircher himself made into the bowl of Vesuvius.
Just before Robert Hooke’s rightly famous microscopic observations of everything from the “Edges of Rasors” to “Vine mites” appeared inMicrographia in 1665, the insatiably curious and incredibly prolific Jesuit scholar Athanasius Kircher published what is in many ways a more spectacular work. Mundus Subterraneus (Underground World), a two-volume tome of atlas-like dimensions, was intended to lay out “before the eyes of the curious reader all that is rare, exotic, and portentous contained in the fecund womb of Nature.” There is an “idea of the earthly sphere that exists in the divine mind,” Kircher proclaimed, and in this book, one of more than thirty on almost as many subjects that he published during his lifetime, he tried to prove that he had grasped it. . . .

Of all the oddball topics in my book Weird Kentucky, the one that seems to resonate the most with local readers is the centuries-old rumor that downtown Lexington is built over an enormous cavern containing the remains of a forgotten prehistoric people. Sounds like tinfoil-hat stuff, doesn’t it? And yet, and yet:
In his 1806 book Travels In America, Thomas Ashe told of a vast network of huge open-room caverns that he discovered in 1783 beneath the city of Lexington. The chamber contained exotic artifacts of an unidentifiable civilization, including a stone altar. The caves were also said to be filled with human bones, and mummified remains. These mummies were of unusually tall stature, and like the mysterious Mammoth Cave mummies, they had red hair.. . . Read Complete Report

In this second part of our latest on the Subterranean World series we return to Mexico’s ancient city of the Mayan, Planque,and the tomb of an ancient ruler named Lord Pacal. In the 1960’s writer Eric von Daniken put fourth the theory that Pacal’s sarcophagus lid was a space ship taking him into outer space.
However, In my 1996 study I disagreed with von Daniken. My assessment was in agreement with the ancient Mayan legends; that what the scene really represented; his return to the underground from where he came. [Secret Underground Tunnels Past and Present: Part 2 “A Closer Look“.] It’s all in which direction you look at the lid. . . Your Editor Dennis Crenshaw
Archaeologists at the Mayan ruin site of Palenque said Monday they have discovered an underground water tunnel built under the Temple of Inscriptions, which houses the tomb of an ancient ruler named Pakal.
Water Tunnel Discovered Beneath Mayan Temple In Palenque
http://undergroundworldnews.com Archaeologists at the Mayan ruin site of Palenque in Mexico have discovered an underground water tunnel built under the Temple of Inscriptions, which houses the tomb of an ancient ruler named Pakal. The archaeologist Arnoldo Gonzalez said on Monday that researchers believe the tomb and pyramid were purposely built atop a spring between 683-702 AD. The tunnels led water from under the funeral chamber out into the broad esplanade in front of the temple, thus giving Pakal’s spirit a path to the underworld. Attention has focused on the heavily carved stone sarcophagus in which Pakal was buried, and which some believe depicts the Maya ruler seated at the controls of a spaceship.
A journey to the Tomb of Pacal an ancient Mayan King.
Ancient aliens astronaut theory debunked. New chariots of the gods refuted. Scariest ufo documentary ever refuted. The Mayan Ancient Alien Astronaut theory at Palenque Pakal. Is this stone carving proof of the existence of aliens visiting early civilizations? Among the ruins in Palenque stands a pyramid called the Temple of Inscriptions. During the summer of 1952 deep within the bowels of this structure Alberto Ruz the director of research at Palenque would discover a tomb that held what appears to be proof of early man conquering space flight. This is a picture of the lid to the sarcophagus of King Pakal, and on it, is what appears to be a man in the cockpit or capsule of a rocket shit, manning the controls as he ascends into space. This theory was made famous in Erich Von Daniken’s 1968 best seller, Chariot of the Gods where Daniken compared the image on the stone to that of the astronauts of Project Mercury. But let’s take a closer look… Around the lid are hieroglyphics that represent night and day, and placed accordingly to show movement from east to west to represent Pakal transitioning from life (daytime) to death (nighttime). What is commonly mistaken for a rocket ship with fire shooting out of the bottom is in fact something found in many cultures known as The World Tree (more about that in another video). The branches extend into heaven, while the roots (fire?) extend into the underworld symbolizing a connection between the heavens, earth and the underworld. Sprawled across the branches is the double headed vision serpent which is believed to live in the center of the world. This is also a symbol for royalty. The celestial bird also known as The Bird of heaven is the lord of the cosmos “heavens.” which is why it is placed at the top of the World Tree’s branches. Pakal sits upon the Monster of the Sun. Because ancient cultures believed that when the sun set, it sank into the underworld where it went to die. The Monster of the sun represents Pakals transition, as it sinks to the world below, taking the king with it. Which is represented by his position as if he’s falling down. As much as I would love to know the early Mayan’s technological abilities didn’t just include plumbing, but interplanetary space travel as well… What you really see is just a beautiful depiction of a powerful king’s death and his travel’s from this world, to the underworld.

As anyone who has been following my research into the makeup of our Earth for the past 50 years knows my findings point towards a Hollow Earth.
In fact the study of first, the search for the origin of UFOs, led me to the study and research of The Hollow Earth Theory, which in turn led me to the study into the Secret Societies and the secretive Controllers and their control of knowledge and false education which eventually led me to the research of their plan to destroy mankind’s “magnificent experiment” of our Country; the experiment of liberty and freedom.
In 1776 the creation by the united States of America by our founding fathers, most of them members of the Secret Society we know as the Free Masons, begun. That experiment was called a Democratic Republic. Unfortunately I also found out that in the same year three of the fledgling countries elitist family’s who owed alliance to England sent their sons to Germany to study under Adam Wteishaup (1748–1830), founder of the Bavarian Illuminati. The Secret Societies goal, stated simply, was to create a One World Government. They started with gaining control of our higher institutions of education. The next step was gaining complete control of our monetary system.
Feeling that their plans of turning our world into what has become known as the New World Order or, a one world fascist state completely controlled by the elitist Controllers, with them as the bosses and all of us as slaves to their system, or worst yet their newer idea of killing us off and using robots to do their bidding was the most important information I had to concentrate on reporting.
With that in mind the Hollow Earth Insider evolved into THEI; a journal of information and reports on the ILLUMINATI and their pals nefarious secret steps in slowly creating that New World Order. The original goal – the study of the make-up of our planet wasn’t ignored but it was placed on a back burner. in fact, I have almost completely moved away from the study of the makeup of our world. I believe we will never solve that science until we wrench the information from the secret societies who today control all there is to know about the ancient knowledge including the REAL makeup of our planet…
I had never given the “Flat Earth Theory” any more than a glance. But with today’s internet chatter about the theory I decided to give it a look-see.
To be truthful I am positive that at least part of the Hollow Earth Theory is fact. I am 99.99% sure that the Subterranean Worlds are there; The ancient tunnels and the present creation of a modern world under the crust. I am also positive that this ancient world INSIDE our planet is the source of most of the UFOs seen in our skies today. Although I have found a lot of accepted scientific findings over the recent years to fit equally BOTH the Hollow Earth theory and the establishment theory The actual Hollow Earth Theory itself I still have a little trouble with.
I decided it was time we here at THEI needed to look into other possibilities. Of course I’ll need to do a lot of research into the other theories, but one thing struck me as I watched one video on the subject, much of the science I have found that fits into the Hollow Earth Theory would also “fit” the Flat Earth Theory. So join us as we once again return to the search for the REAL shape of our planet. Remember everything is theory, INCLUDED the Solid Earth Theory. The fact is that until we reach the center of the world, if at all possible, it’s all theory. But is is fun to speculate. . . Your Editor Dennis Crenshaw

Have you ever wondered why every planet we know about is shaped like a sphere? Why not a cube, or an hourglass? While those—and let’s be honest, most other shapes—would definitely break the laws of physics, there’s one odd planet form that wouldn’t: a donut. . . . Continue
What if planets were not (nearly) spherical but rather torus/donut shaped? Topics discussed: types of tori, stability of torus planets, gravity vs centrifugal force, curvature, tidal forces, seasons and day/night cycles, climate, hurricanes, coriolis forces, tectonics, internal heating, moons, and the four color theorem.
