"Vimanas" which are the
flying machines described in the ancient
Indian Sanskrit epics which are a series of ancient historical writings much larger then Bible that make the construct of Hinduism. It occurs in the Sanskrit epics Yajurveda, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana, as well as in classical Indian literature. These texts describe the size and the
mechanical workings of the various flying machines.
They
explain how they where
controlled, special
precautions that had to be taken on
long flights, how the machines could be
protected against violent storms and lightning, how to make a
forced landing and even how to
switch to solar energy while in flight.
Yea, and were talking
thousands of years ago. Something that's very interesting is the fact that the only translations that could not be translated were the descriptions of the
various metals and alloys that were used. There's lots of technical detail about the different metals,
heat-absorbing metals, their melting point and the
type of propulsion units that were used. There are 16 kinds of heat-absorbing metals with names like ushnambhara, ushnapaa and raajaamlatrit non of which can be translated into English.
A book written by David W .Davenport, an Englishman born in India claimed to have proof that Mohenjo Daro, which is more than 5000 years old, was destroyed by an atomic bomb of some sorts. In his book "Atomic Destruction 2000. BC" Davenport demonstrates that there were three different degrees of devastation which spread from the center outwards. Some type of enormous heat was unleashed at the center which created total destruction. Thousands of christened black stones found by archaeologists, turned out to be fragments of clay vessels which had melted into each other due to extreme heat.
The
possibility of volcanic eruption is not possible because there is no evidence of hardened lava or volcanic ash. Davenport assumed that the brief
intensive heat reached approximately 3632 degrees F (2000 C). He also states that there were
numerous skeletons of people lying flat on the ground, often found
hand in hand as if they had suddenly been overcome by an
unexpected catastrophe.
