Anthropologist Eric Wargo argues that the future can influence the present through retrocausation, offering a single mechanism for precognitive dreams, synchronicities, and even out-of-body experiences. He suggests some 17th-century alchemical texts were coded lucid dreaming manuals, while others may have hidden technological trade secrets such as an early form of photography, much as he believes today's UFO discourse is used as a smokescreen by military and intelligence interests. The conversation closes with Wargo's case that UFOs could be time-traveling human descendants who colonized the galaxy in the deep past.
