i get a real kick out of these "scientists" who are just sure that aliens are everywhere, but we just can't find them. what's wrong with these over-educated idiots(i know, oxy moron,mostly moron). these guys think the rest of us normal people will fall for all of their bullshit i swear. one guy figured up some mathematic formula for the chances of other life out there , for sure supposedly, then went on to propose aliens have been here, but couldn't explain why they stopped coming by for a visit. YEAH RIGHT, so we are to believe that "superior " life is out there , but don't come back to the only planet in our "area" or solar system that has just the right amount of, gravity, air, water, plant life, animals, atmosphere, and oh yeah, PEOPLE(small detail) and just the exact right amount of ingredients to support all of these things!! so what about the supposed aliens that have crashed in the desert? can you say area 51. more b.s. i say. listen, are we to believe that some other beings are smart enough to get all the way here from outside our known galactic zip code, and they are obviously superior to us in space travel, navigate through the stars, meteors, asteroids, stars, radiation, etc., etc., and woohoo they can't figure out how to LAND THEIR FRIGGIN SPACECRAFT, they always CRASH!!! and then hide their superiority somewhere in the wilderness! come on professor, where did i go wrong? i think nasa has people with marketing degree's from space out U. if there are aliens, then why get excited about it, heck they don't do anything, i'm more worried about hillary becoming president. of course i could be wrong, what'ya think?

Art Bell is my hero.
 
Douglas Adams explained it best in Hitchhikers Guide, that the aliens come by on a joy cruise, wearing silly costumes and going 'beep beep beep'.

I think the ones that "crash" are just drunk drivers or ones that fell asleep at the wheel.

i just got done watching that stuff on Discovery too. makes ya kind of think outside the box..... just my two pennies :D
 
What is worse is the Bigfoot freaks. Have a fellow at work who is part of an organization called BFRO: Big Foot Research Organization. To hear him speak of all the "evidence" makes me want to ask him to put the crack pipe down! Now gnomes...that's another thing. Those little shits scare me!

What do you think God has to say about this?

What does he have to say ? My guess is "What, you think I created this whole place just for you", 'Hell, you have a hard enough time just getting to the moon, think I'm going to waste the other 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 just for you.."
But I could be wrong, I lost track of the 9's so I may be off a few trillion...
 
Lemme guess, alien life is too far fetched for you to believe in, but you have no problem going to church every sunday and giving your money to the man that tells you stories of how this "virgin" had a baby and that baby was god, but we killed the baby(only because he decided to die) and we are all somehow forgiven and will go to heaven?

anyone got any chlorine to spare?


 
Signals of our existence (radio waves) have only traveled 50 light years or so from earth. There is a bubble of radio waves expanding outwards and is about 300 trillion miles in diameter and growing. We already know there is not much around in our neck of the woods. Let's say there is an "alien" civilization on the other side of the the Milky Way. The Milky Way is about 100,000 light years across (light years measure distance, not time) and that would put them about 3/4 across the galaxy. Our radio waves have to travel 75,000 light years just to reach them. It will reach the aliens in 75,000 years. They have to decide to respond ( they might be smart and decide not to) and then send a signal back to us. That signal has to travel 75,000 light years to reach us. This one communication would take 150,000 years.

But that is just radio communication. A space ship from this alien planet would have to travel for 75,000 years AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT to reach us (that means the aliens would have to travel at 186,000 miles per SECOND. Our fastest rocket (planned for the future) will be able to travel at only 208,000 miles per HOUR.

The universe is big for a reason. Alien contact is not meant to happen, that is not to say alien life does not exist.

Spoken like someone who has not yet fathomed the infinite vastness of space (no insult intended!).

The reason it intuitively 'feels' to be improbable, is because humans are not naturally inclined or socially conditioned to think in terms of the interminable vastness - both physically and mathematically - that 'space' holds. (We could get into how space shoud really be considered to be spacetime and that there can be no real separation between the two, but that's for another time...). Our tiny minds are constrained when we try to imagine things on the terms of 'infinity'.

Mathematically, we can be almost certain that there is life on other planets; within visible space alone its been calculated that there are probably 10^18 habitable planets actually hosting some form of life, and in our galaxy alone, its probable that there are about 10 million habitable planets hosting life. And this is only on the assumption that life needs the conditions that we have on Earth in order to spark, exist and thrive; it says nothing of the interminable vastness of forms that life may actually take, outside of our current understanding of life.

Do I believe that 'aliens' are currently visiting our planet or are studying us right now? No. Do I believe its possible that they are out there? Absolutely, its almost a mathematical certainty...

Just a couple of cents...

Would anyone else like to talk about their abduction/encounter with the Greys, as I like to call them. The intention they have is quite noble towards us, other than the ANAL probes..
:D
 
When I was 10 my brother and I saw an UFO of some sort. It was freaky; we just stared at eachother and said "did you see that?".
 
Aliens are some of the nicest people you'd ever meet.

Last time me and the missus were off-world we had vehicle problems. It's amazing what people will do to find a hydrosolator and send you on your way.

Mind you, they might have been just trying to get rid of us. We don't get out much and tend to be really chatty when we do.

Yeah, tht's all a joke... maybe...
 
Black helicopters. They're behind it all in conjunction with the Reverse Vampires.
 
I like the idea from the movie Men In Black, that most celebrities are actually aliens in disguise. Sure are a lot of them that don't act remotely human...
