Most of these make plenty of sense, but where does this come from?

>> Archaeological evidence of human life found on Mars/Moon from some time > 12K years ago.

Ha, definitely a long shot. I was watching a Joe Rogan podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDejwCGdUV8. In summary, there's evidence for a cataclysmic asteroid strike 12K years ago that nearly wiped out humanity. If true that upends traditional archaeological theories and suggests that humanity rebooted 12K years ago instead of a gradual move from hunter-gatherer to society. What the world was like before the reboot is unknown, but maybe we were advanced enough for space travel?

Yeah, I've heard quite a few interviews with Graham Hancock. I don't know if I can make the leap from a lost history to a lost space-faring history. I also can't make the further leap to "we will discover that space-faring history in the next year".

I guess if it happens then we heard it from you first!
