"Transformers 3"
conspiracy theory 1: Transformers are on the back of the moon.
Movie plot: "Change 3" begins with the scene when humans first landed on the moon. In 1961, humans detected traces of aliens on the moon. , So President John F. Kennedy ordered to land on the moon before the Soviets at all costs, which caused the United States and Russia to fall into the seemingly "cold war" relationship of an arms race for a long time. In fact, the American moon landing plan is not just about planting the Stars and Stripes in an illusory open space. In 1969, President Nixon ordered secretly watching the aliens' whereabouts when Apollo landed on the moon. They discovered that the Autobots were on Cybertron. The Autobot spacecraft "Ark" that wanted to escape during the final battle and the old robot "Guardian Enemy". At this time, the U.S. government, which was broadcasting live worldwide, ordered to temporarily cut off the live broadcast signal. At the same time, the president ordered Armstrong to spare no effort to run to the dark side of the moon. An important mission, from there, he brought back the core technology of the robot, and also discovered more information about Transformers. At the same time, two astronauts from Russia also mentioned to Sam that before 1959, the shadow of the moon was very clean, but since 1963, many craters began to appear on the shadow of the moon.
Source of conspiracy theories: There are two mainstream conspiracy theories about the "Apollo Moon landing" story. One is that the government has fabricated photos of astronauts landing on the moon in Hollywood studios to deceive the public. Another conspiracy theory is that the US government has concealed the outer space civilization on the moon from the world. It is the second conspiracy theory that is borrowed from "Change 3".
On July 20, 1969, at 22:56 US Eastern Time, "Apollo 11" successfully landed on the moon. Astronaut Armstrong became the first human being on the moon in human history. In the live TV broadcast that made the world boiling, people suddenly heard astronaut Armstrong say: "...unbelievable!...There are other spacecrafts here...they are watching us!" After that, the signal was suddenly interrupted by American Aerospace. The bureau has never given any explanation for this. Soon after, the US government announced the termination of all moon landing plans. The reason behind this decision is still the ultimate secret in the history of human spaceflight. As a result, various conjectures about "what exactly did the astronauts see?", "the truth about the moon" and "the moon is an alien spacecraft" gradually surfaced, and NASA, the executor of the moon landing program It is also believed that he has mastered the secret information of aliens on the moon but refused to make it public, and was accused of deceiving the people for decades.
There is also some theoretical support for the theory that the moon is the "Ark" of aliens. Although people now know more about the moon, there is still no conclusion about the origin of the moon. Some scientists believe that many years ago, the moon was accidentally sucked into the gravitational range, so it was accidentally included in the orbit of the earth. Surprisingly, this statement caters to some ancient legends around the world. In the Yao area in southwest China, there is a legend: In ancient times, there were only sun and stars in the sky, and a heat suddenly appeared in the sky one night. It is something like a big mountain with seven edges and eight corners. It is not round and square, like a huge stone, radiating toxic heat. In other words, the Yao people believe that the moon suddenly appeared over the earth one day after the appearance of human beings. These claims provide evidence for the conspiracy theory that the moon is an alien spaceship docked near the earth. On the other hand, some scientists believe that the moon was not born in the universe with other planets, and in the universe that humans can explore, the moon is the only planet that can revolve around the earth and rotate at the same time. This also means that humans are in the universe. The back side of the moon will never be seen on earth. The craters on the moon have also been questioned by scientists. The reason is that the craters on the moon are densely gathered on the shadow side of the moon, but there are few on the side facing the earth. At the same time, the diameter of the craters on the moon is several hundred kilometers, equivalent to 1/ 8 moon, but the depth is only 2-3 kilometers. If the crater was formed by the impact of a meteorite, then not only would the moon not be shattered by such a huge meteorite impact, but it would also be too bad to be knocked out of such a shallow crater. Reasonably, based on these doubts, a conspiracy theory that "alien is hiding on the back of the earth" has also become popular.
Conspiracy Theory 2: The Chernobyl nuclear leak is a
movie plot caused by Transformers : In "Transformers 3", the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is actually a base for the Soviet Union to use space resources to develop nuclear energy. At the beginning of the film, the Autobots came to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine to perform a mission, where they found alien-like substances. After extensive investigations, the military discovered that the Chernobyl explosion was due to the use of It was caused by the core engine of the Autobots spacecraft on the moon. And the bigger conspiracy is that the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is not just a nuclear power plant, but a hiding place for the Decepticons.
Source of the conspiracy theory: In the early morning of April 26, 1986, the fourth reactor of the Lenin Nuclear Power Plant, 18 kilometers outside Chernobyl, Ukraine, exploded. The roof was overturned, and flames erupted from the big hole that was blasted with radioactivity. The steam rushed into the sky thousands of meters high. This is by far the largest nuclear leakage disaster in human history, the "Chernobyl nuclear accident." In "Change 3", Michael Bay mapped the cause of the Chernobyl accident to the Decepticons, which can be said to have created a new conspiracy theory. Then in reality, the reason for the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is still unclear. Officials have always had two contradictory explanations: the first was announced in August 1986, which completely shifted responsibility for the accident to the nuclear power plant. Operator. The second was published in 1991. The explanation believed that the accident was caused by a design flaw in the pressure tube graphite moderated boiling water reactor (RBMK), especially the control rod design. What’s more surprising is that despite the huge disaster, Chernobyl is not a “dead city” in the true sense. Zou Yu, who entered the accidental nuclear power plant two years ago and studied it for a week, revealed that other nuclear power plants The crew operated until 2000. "So far, there are still a lot of staff working here for post-retirement management. There are also 2000-3000 locals living here, and the locals are not wearing radiation protection suits, but What's interesting is that the people who come to give them daily necessities every week are fully armed and very cautious." There were rumors before that, after radiation, a large number of weird species of animals and plants appeared in the Chernobyl area. Zou Yu said: "I asked many local residents about this, and they all said,'I haven't seen monsters.' "This scene also seems to coincide with the "Chernobyl conspiracy theory" created by Michael Bay.
"Transformers 2"
Conspiracy Theory Three: Los Angeles Battle between Autobots and Decepticons
Movie plot: In "Change 2", the Autobots led by Optimus Prime formed a guard that encircled the earth, specifically responsible for destroying the Decepticon gathering spots stationed around the world. In the film, Optimus Prime also reported to a certain US military The officer reported on the achievements of the Autobots. At the same time, the male protagonist Sam has also been admitted to the university, and his university roommate Leo is a complete conspiracy theorist. Leo founded a website called "Real World" on his own. The website specializes in collecting scenes where passers-by witnessed the fighting between Autobots and Decepticons in an attempt to refute the falseness of government reports on various disasters and reveal aliens to the world. Presence on the earth. The incidents they recorded also included the "Battle of Los Angeles" between the Autobots and the Decepticons witnessed by their roommates.
Source of conspiracy theory: Compared with other conspiracy theories, the alien war in Los Angeles is more well-known to mainland audiences. The sci-fi blockbuster "Battle of Los Angeles", which was changed based on real events, landed in my country in March this year and achieved excellent results. Box office results. In "Transformers 2," this conversation between Sam and his roommate is the same thing as "Battle of Los Angeles." The incident occurred during World War II. At about 2 o'clock in the morning on February 25, 1942, an unidentified enemy greeted Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States. At that time, less than three months had passed since the Pearl Harbor incident. The bright spots on the radar screen caused a burst of confusion. The military thought it was a Japanese aircraft, so it immediately entered a state of combat. Within a few minutes, the dark morning sky on the coast of Southern California was filled with search light and anti-aircraft artillery. More than 1,500 shells were fired that night, and the entire night sky turned into daylight. Thousands of people across Los Angeles saw those unknown objects in the beam of searchlight that day. The bright spots around the bright object in the photo are the debris from the explosion of the anti-aircraft shell. The anti-aircraft artillery strafed the night sky for nearly 2 hours. After daybreak, people found that there were falling bullet shells everywhere on the ground, but nothing was shot down. Although some newspapers claimed that it was a Japanese plane, more people believed that it was a UFO (unidentified flying object) that appeared that night. At that time, President Roosevelt ordered an investigation into the incident, but since then the official statement has been as usual: it was a weather balloon. Roosevelt himself never publicly expressed any views on this incident, and the truth of the incident became a mystery.
Conspiracy Theory 4: Aliens have been to Earth a long time ago
Movie plot: "Change 2" begins with a scene where a group of primitive Indians living in the mountains are attacked by a Decepticon. It can be seen from the screen that human civilization was still at a primitive level at that time. Time jumps back to contemporary times. In the first episode, the agents of the "Seventh Defense Zone" organization were exposed in order to save the world because they were dismissed by the government and became the owner of a street restaurant. When Sam found him again for help, he again One time to show Sam the exclusive information of the "Seventh Defense Zone". It was a film taken by archaeologists all over the world for 75 years. The symbols repeatedly appeared in the film, telling Sam that "Transformers came to the earth a long time ago." Afterwards, the agents showed evidence of the arrival of modern Transformers on the earth: "The disguised robots have been lurking on the earth. They are disguised as classic cars." The small Decepticons captured by Sam's girlfriend were forced to help them interpret the mysterious symbols. Little Decepticons said: "These are left by the first batch of Transformers veterans who came to the earth. They came here to find something thousands of years ago. I don't know what it is." The
source of the conspiracy theory: in the exploration of the history of human civilization. In the process, scientists can always discover many things that can be created to catch up with or even exceed the level of contemporary science and technology, such as how exactly were the pyramids built? Why is the image of an astronaut found on the Mural of Episcope Church in Salamanca, Spain, built in 1102 AD? In 1122, in the ancient church in Dobrsk, Bulgaria, why did the ancient mural of Jesus in the spaceship appear in the costume of an astronaut? In 1965, the Goujian sword of the Yue King discovered in Chu Tomb No. 1 excavated in Jiangling, Hubei Province, was buried for more than 2,000 years. Why was it processed by the "vulcanization treatment" technology invented in 1950? Why is the bronze sword of Qin Dynasty "memory metal", also called shape memory alloy, this technology appeared in the world material science in the 1970s. Why did the pirates of 1513 have a parchment map accurately depicting the Antarctic continent, the Pacific coastline of North America, and even the Bering Strait? From the many unexplainable products of civilization, we have read about a civilized society that seems familiar. No one can tell who did these things, so some people who believe in UFOs and alien civilizations assert that human civilization is taught to us by aliens who came to the earth a long time ago.
"Transformers 1"
conspiracy theory 5: UFO attacks on US military bases
Movie plot: At the beginning of "Change 1", a US Air Force plane sent a group of soldiers to the Qatar Special Operations Command. At the same time, the headquarters reported that an unidentified aircraft invaded 10 miles away. The U.S. military command immediately requested it to identify itself and flew east to leave the U.S. airspace. At the same time, the Raptor 1 and Raptor 2 were dispatched to intercept them. Raptor 1 After No. 2 approached the target, he found the tail number of the unidentified helicopter was 4500X. According to the data, the plane was shot down in Afghanistan three months ago. In order to find out the truth, the US military ordered the plane to land at the Sancosen Air Force Base in the United States. Unexpectedly, the plane suddenly turned into a Decepticon. The US military base was instantly razed to the ground. Soldiers fled around. Colleagues, this King Kong from the Decepticons began to automatically upload the confidential documents of the US military in the brain of the computer. The camera turns to Washington. The Secretary of Defense of the United States is holding an emergency meeting at the Pentagon to announce that there are no survivors at Sankesen Air Force Base. At the same time, the world's top acoustic signal analysis experts are called to analyze the voice of the intruder.
The source of the conspiracy theory: At 23:40 on July 19, 1952, seven unusual shining spots suddenly appeared on the radar screen of the radar room of the Air Traffic Control Center of Washington International Airport in the United States. At the same time, the radar at Andrews Air Force Base also captured the same UFO. Immediately afterwards, the pilots at Qatar Airport also reported that they had seen these things with their own eyes. On July 25, 1952, the "Washington Daily Express" reported the following news with a headline: According to relevant sources in the US Department of Defense, the Department of Defense had ordered the air defense fighter team to shoot down all UFOs that did not obey the landing order. The day after the announcement, on the night of July 26, 1952, ghostly UFO flew over Washington again. At the same time, the White House held an emergency meeting. Three days later, at the strong request of the mass media, the government held a press conference and announced that the two UFO incidents were caused by the atmospheric temperature reversal layer on those two nights. However, both the public and the media believe that this is the Air Force's clumsy cover-up of the truth about UFOs.
Conspiracy Theory 6: The Mars Explorer robot was destroyed by Transformers
Movie plot: At the moment when mankind faces the destructive attack of the Decepticons, an agent who claims to be from the "7th Defense Zone" suddenly visits the Secretary of Defense of the United States and brings the most amazing big secret in American history: "You may The Borrowed Space Agency lost the "Hound 2" robot on Mars. We told them to declare the entire mission a failure. In fact, it was not the case. The Hound 2 transmitted a 13-second image." This 13-second image shows the "Hound During the attack on "No. 2" after Mars landed, the agents then took out the images sent back from Mars and the images taken when the US Air Force base was attacked. Everything was directed at Transformers.
Source of the conspiracy theory: Although the movie did not clearly state that the "Hound 2" refers to the specific year of the Mars detection robot launched, the data shows: In 1993, the National Aeronautics Administration launched the "Mars Facer" probe into space. The “Martian Facer” was originally scheduled to reach the orbit of Mars on August 24, 1993, but suddenly lost contact with the ground on August 21, 1993. In December 1998, the United States launched the "Martian Climate Explorer" again, but it was burned when it entered the Martian atmosphere in September 1999. In January 1999, the United States launched the "Mars Polar Lander" probe, but its whereabouts were unknown after the scheduled landing time. As the world's most dedicated organization for Mars exploration, NASA successively launched exploration robots to Mars in the 1990s, except for the 1996 one. With the exception of the Mars Pathfinder, all others have lost contact with the ground, and most of the Martian images returned by the Pathfinder have been questioned by the Americans as being artificially produced by computer CG rendering technology. . Since the "Martian Facer" lost contact with the ground in 1993, rumors of robots "intercepted by aliens" and "destroyed by Martians" have become popular. As more and more robots are missing, these rumors have also become There are conspiracy theories.
Conspiracy Theory 7: The Hoover Dam was built to hide energy sources
Movie plot: The agents from the "Seventh Defense Zone" mentioned above, while revealing the "Whereabouts of the Martian Explorer", also introduced the origin of the "Seventh Defense Zone" to the Secretary of Defense. In the film, the agent stated that “the seventh defense zone is a mysterious government organization established secretly by President Hoover’s order 80 years ago.” The agent then took everyone to the Hoover Dam, a huge underground base, and showed it to the Secretary of Defense. They kept secrets for decades. And this secret is the frozen Megatron and the energy source cube that the Decepticons are struggling to find. "Megatron fell into the ice thousands of years ago because the earth’s magnetic field interfered with its navigation system. The United States transported it to the site of the Hoover Dam in 1934. This is by far the greatest discovery of mankind, because of all modernizations. A series of technological products such as microchips, lasers, space flight, automobiles, etc., are all technologies obtained from engineering studies of the frozen Megatron. The energy source cube is the seven founders of the "seventh zone" That is, "The First Seven" (The First Seven) discovered in 1913. At that time, because the energy source cube was too large, President Hoover ordered the construction of the Hoover Dam to hide it. The energy signal emitted by the energy source itself was too large. Too strong, in order to keep it on the earth, the workers who built the Hoover Dam used a full four football pitches of cement to ensure that no one or any alien race outside would be able to detect what it emits. energy.
Source of conspiracy theory: The "seventh defense zone" mentioned in the film and the discoverer of the energy source "Seven Elders" are all elements from the "Transformers" animation. In the "Transformers" animation in the 1980s, " "The Seventh Defense Zone" is a secret government organization set up specifically for Transformers and whose duty is to study this kind of alien life and eliminate all potential or existing threats, and its supporter is the then U.S. President Hoover. In reality, this giant dam, which is still considered one of the wonders of human architecture, was built in 1931 and is located in Black Gorge at the junction of Nevada and Arizona. The world-famous "Alien Highway" is 40 kilometers away from the dam. The road where UFO sightings occur most frequently in the world was originally Highway 375 in Nevada, USA. Numerous UFO enthusiasts gather here every year, and they all believe that "the truth is there". In 1996, the local government announced this The 157-kilometer highway is directly named "Alien Highway". The "little alien" hotel that often appears in American science fiction movies is also located here. It is the only motel on this highway. . Adjacent to the "Alien Highway" is the location of the world's largest conspiracy theory "Area 51" so far. "Area 51" is a U.S. military base. Legend has it that the corpses of aliens who crashed on the earth were refrigerated in the "Green Room", a secret experimental base here, and every new U.S. President patrols the "Green Room." In 1987, former employees of the Central Intelligence Agency claimed that the aliens had contact with the US government, and the two sides reached a deal: the US government allowed aliens to kidnap Earthlings, and the aliens revealed advanced technology in the 51 area. The American drama "X-Files" once made it a household name through the highly exaggerated "No. 51 area". Although the U.S. government has consistently denied these rumors, the no-entry notices and various surveillance devices that appear every 50 meters here, as well as the very strict penalty policy of "a fine of 600 U.S. dollars for trespassing tourists", make people more happy. Accept that there are aliens here. Fans of "Transformers" usually think that the "7th Defense Zone" in the story alludes to the legendary "Area No. 51" claiming to be responsible for researching new military aircraft, which is actually a secret organization that is only studying aliens. In the film The secret base hidden behind the Hoover Dam to hide Megatron and the energy source is the "green house" in reality.
There are many more, but I don’t know much. Welcome conspiracy theory experts and Transformers fans to come and give pointers.
