Cosmic Summit 2023

Saturday – Sunday
June 17 – 18, 2023
The Crowne Plaza RESORT
ASHEVILLE, North Carolina

Millions worldwide believe there is more to recent Earth and human history than recognized by our gatekeepers. The Cosmic Summit will tell the whole story best we can. 

The heterodox subjects addressed at The Summit include the well-published Younger Dryas Impact Event, More Recent Cosmic Impacts, A Suspected Lost Civilization, Clovis People, The Black Mat, Megafaunal Extinctions, Gobekli Tepe, Forgotten Ancient Technologies, Controversial Archaeology, Atlantis, Megalithic Monument Building, Egyptian Mysteries, and Catastrophic Geology.*

The event will be live streamed and on-demand worldwide through howtube.com. But for those who come to beautiful Asheville, North Carolina, the gathering will be a unique opportunity to eat, drink and think with others who ponder ages past.

And ages to come.

The Summit

The Cosmic Summit is a deliberate mix of internet speculators, controversial authors and published scientists with rock solid data. Our common intellectual thread is a belief that humans and earth have been traumatized by past cosmic impacts prematurely rejected by the mainstream. 

We won’t agree on everything, but we will provide an antidote to intellectual conformity, received wisdom, and authoritarian science elites. Join us.

Speakers

The following global influencers and published scientists will speak in Asheville
