The Church of Scientology has allegedly built an alien space cathedral in a New Mexico desert. The allegation comes from BBC Panorama reporter John Sweeney in his new book, "Church of Fear: Inside the Weird World of Scientology."

According to Sweeney, the cathedral is home to the writings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and is built to withstand any type of natural or man-made disaster, including a nuclear blast. Visible to the human eye only from space are two interlocking circles, which are meant to guide foreign life forms or "Clears (high-ranking Scientologists) returning from space to find Mr. Hubbard's works after a nuclear Armageddon wipes out humanity."

"The whole purpose of putting these teachings in the vaults was so that in the event that everything gets wiped out, someone would still be willing to locate them and they would still be there," former Scientologist Chuck Beatty told Sweeney.

Sweeney notes in his book that the cathedral was built "at the cost of millions of dollars. Its vault houses the lectures of church founder L. Ron Hubbard on gold discs locked in titanium caskets sealed with argon." Read more
