How did builders carve the Kailasa temple from a mountain with no waste rock found?

The episode begins by defining history as a mystery when there are gaps that cannot be explained. The host uses the Egyptian pyramids as a primary example, noting their construction 5000 years ago with stones weighing 2.5 tons each, built by over 100,000 people in 30 years. He questions how this was possible with ancient technology and suggests the pyramids might have been built for non-human observers to see from above, linking this to alien conspiracy theories. The discussion shifts to the Kailasa temple in the Ellora caves, India, which was carved from a single mountain. The host, who studied archaeology, describes the temple's intricate details and the mystery of where the estimated 2 lakh tons of removed rock went, with no evidence of waste. He mentions the Archaeological Survey of India estimates it took 400-1000 years to build, but some believe it was constructed in 18 years. Next, the host introduces the story of Shivakar Bapuji Thalapathy, who allegedly built and flew a bamboo aircraft called Marutsaka in 1895, eight years before the Wright brothers, based on the Vaimanika Shastra text. He notes skepticism due to lack of evidence and the use of mercury in the design. The episode then covers moon landing conspiracies, referencing theories that the 1969 landing was faked by Stanley Kubrick in Area 51. The host points out anomalies like missing footage and Neil Armstrong's name spelling 'alien', and discusses the lack of recent manned missions due to robotic alternatives. Throughout, the host emphasizes that these topics lack concrete evidence, making them mysteries rather than settled history. He concludes by framing the episode as informal discussion without a script, encouraging listeners to research further.
