Review from New Dawn magazine

Mary Bennett has held executive positions in major brand corporations, is currently an editor, translator, and freelance consultant to publishers and media organisations, and has travelled extensively worldwide.

It is interesting to note that she began her career by studying music. She was found to have psychic abilities as a child and uses those capabilities to investigate the interaction of consciousness with alternative energy systems.

Mary lives in Wiltshire, UK, an area where many crop circles occur. Her background and experience lend themselves to the subject matter of this book for which she has been collecting information over many years.

David Percy was an early pioneer in computer graphics and animation and is an award-winning photographer, film and television producer. He has travelled the globe researching and making documentaries of ancient sites, thereby placing him in a unique position to provide the visual content of this book. He lives in London.

Together, Bennett and Percy have produced a tour de force dealing with the probability of intelligent extraterrestrial origin in the communication of valuable, cutting-edge information for the progress of humankind.

They have identified the positioning and shaping of large-scale monuments and artefacts on both Mars and Earth that correspond and link with each other to provide us with clues to what should be the next steps in our technological progress and evolutionary process. They assimilate for us a wide variety of correspondences providing knowledge that would otherwise have remained hidden.

Their work involved translating messaging – which conveys through the languages of images and glyphs, physics and mathematics, metaphor, analogy, anomaly, allegory, anagram, symbol, geometry, code, numerology, logo, myth, music, mapping, and associative thinking – that might only be understood as given to us from trans-dimensional sources.

Our authors' overriding themes are the perennial inquiries we have posed to ourselves of who we are and where we come from. They focus on the search for our origins and desire to get into deep space and conclude that to answer both questions, it is necessary to identify and make use of a fifth element that some claim is etheric or invisible – an element that connects us as self-aware beings at subtle levels to everything in the Universe. In contrast, government bodies are stuck in their usual mode of outdated and literal thinking.

For instance, "NASA appears to be using an entirely inadequate technology for future human spacecraft and space stations. For the most part, the technologies employed to date have been developed as a result of wars, tension, and dissonance."

Instead, it is proposed that future spacecraft employ new propulsion based upon an advanced concept of "amplified light" [photonic] energy as a power source and an appropriate internal miniature magnetosphere acting as an active radiation shielding system. Bennett and Percy suggest that "the ideas we need to pursue have already been encoded not only by nature itself in the design of the solar system but also in the designs and layouts of Earth's ancient monuments and structures," as well as those recently discovered on our neighbouring planet Mars.

In their investigation, they have recognised "a demonstrable coherence of design and methodology" connecting many of these structures even though the various cultures involved are not recorded as ever having intermingled. They ask if there is some intuitional capability, perhaps in those so-called noncoding portions of our DNA, that links us to hidden layers of data "waiting for the time when we would need them."

“What if a set of blueprints showing us alternative processes for living in harmony with a planet, and travelling off planet, has been waiting for us to come of age?" ask the authors.

They show us remarkable correlations between the region on Mars labelled Cydonia and Earth constructions like Mexico's Teotihuacán complex; Egypt's Giza plateau; Beijing's Forbidden City; England's Stonehenge and Avebury; the Nazca lines of Peru; the layout of Washington, DC, with special attention to the evolution of the Pentagon; Europe's Gothic cathedrals; the new Axe Majeur park in Paris; Richard Branson's Spaceport America in the New Mexican desert; Plato's and Edgar Cayce’s description of Atlantis, and more.

We learn of references to our subject in movies and TV shows like Star Trek, Star Wars, Contact, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar, Apollo 13, and others. We see how governments and other entities hid from the public their findings on Remote Viewing and UFOs and how they encoded meaning the naming of programs, space vehicles and their parts, abbreviations, and new geography, for those who have "eyes to see."

Concerning Cydonia, one referenced author noted that "no convincing geological mechanisms have to date been put forth that are capable of explaining the diversity of forms, the patterns of organisation, and the subtlety of design exhibited by this collection of objects." So has NASA been hiding discoveries from us that might throw light on the question, "Are we ourselves Martians?"

This is a long and very detailed book, but the reader is well advised to "stick with it" because the rewards for doing so are manifold. In addition, Bennett's text keeps us chuckling with her insider jokes and clever section titles. And, "once we accept the idea that ETIs [extraterrestrial intelligences] have left us an attractor to get us thinking and wanting to travel to Mars, we will be in a position to expand our own thinking processes in order to do just that."

This exploration of the hidden influence of Mars shows that our abilities as a space-faring species really began in our ancient past, and these deep memories of our abilities are only now coming to fruition, enabling us, should we so choose, to become once again a space faring species.
