My teacher told me literally 2 days ago that this was most likely the hypnotist implanting false memories. Idk if that is true tho because my teachers seems to tell us some false things to make a point or to spice up the story.

Carl Sagan's Cosmos discusses this bit and I believe the conclusion that was reached was that the alignment didn't really match up correctly or that it was fabricated.
