I have a sick, nauseous feeling in my stomach as I pull into the parking lot. The drive seems to take much longer than it should. I cranked the punk rock CD in my car to distract me. Finally, I'm in view of familiar faces, which seem to calm my nerves as I get out of my car. I'm greeted by a couple of other drivers. They seem a little bewildered and in shock. We all walk in silence with our heads down towards the door to get in. Once we get close, we can see that there is a line waiting to get in. We wait patiently and quietly as the line starts to move toward the door.

Erich von Däniken's Chariots of the Gods is a work of monumental importance---the first book to introduce the shocking theory that ancient Earth was visited by aliens. This world-famous best seller has withstood the test of time, inspiring countless books and films, including the author's own popular sequel, The Eye of the Sphinx.

On July 16, 1965, a massive alien spacecraft from the Zeta Reticuli star system landed at the Nevada test site north of Las Vegas. Following a plan set in motion by President Kennedy in 1962, the alien visitors known as the Ebens welcomed 12 astronaut-trained military personnel aboard their craft for the 10-month journey to their home planet, Serpo, 39 light-years away. Working with the DIA originators of the Serpo project and the diary kept by the expedition’s commanding officer, Len Kasten chronicles the complete journey of these cosmic pioneers.
