Science Do you believe earth has visitors from outerspace?

Wile_E_Coyote · 07-26-2008, 11:34 AM

Fuzzy pictures and video. I wonder sometimes if it wasn't/isn't all a hoax
by governments. To funnel billions of dollars of tax payer money into the space program.

Not that I don't believe in the exploration of space. But I never hear of anyone questioning spending so much.

Anywho

It's a better conspiracy theory than most.

JuicesFlowing · 07-26-2008, 11:37 AM

With all of the technology in the world today, I find it hard to believe that the only evidence we have of UFOs and such are grainy photos. Same deal with Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, etc. And on top of that, if Aliens were so advanced to fly here in their big ships, wouldn't they stay awhile, explore? Why so elusive? I have no idea.

Ancient cave dwellings have evidence etched into their walls- long before man ever developed machines or even had the notion to conceive the idea of machines.

Moon-walker claims alien contact cover-up

July 24, 2008 12:01am

FORMER NASA astronaut and moon-walker Dr Edgar Mitchell - a veteran of the Apollo 14 mission - has stunningly claimed aliens exist.

And he says extra-terrestrials have visited Earth on several occasions - but the alien contact has been repeatedly covered up by governments for six decades.

Dr Mitchell, 77, said during a radio interview that sources at the space agency who had had contact with aliens described the beings as 'little people who look strange to us.'

He said supposedly real-life ET's were similar to the traditional image of a small frame, large eyes and head.

Chillingly, he claimed our technology is "not nearly as sophisticated" as theirs and "had they been hostile", he warned "we would be been gone by now".

Dr Mitchell, along with with Apollo 14 commander Alan Shepard, holds the record for the longest ever moon walk, at nine hours and 17 minutes following their 1971 mission.

"I happen to have been privileged enough to be in on the fact that we've been visited on this planet and the UFO phenomena is real," Dr Mitchell said.

"It's been well covered up by all our governments for the last 60 years or so, but slowly it's leaked out and some of us have been privileged to have been briefed on some of it.

"I've been in military and intelligence circles, who know that beneath the surface of what has been public knowledge, yes - we have been visited. Reading the papers recently, it's been happening quite a bit."

Dr Mitchell, who has a Bachelor of Science degree in aeronautical engineering and a Doctor of Science degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics claimed Roswell was real and similar alien visits continue to be investigated.

He told the astonished Kerrang! radio host Nick Margerrison: "This is really starting to open up. I think we're headed for real disclosure and some serious organisations are moving in that direction."

Mr Margerrison said: "I thought I'd stumbled on some sort of astronaut humour but he was absolutely serious that aliens are definitely out there and there's no debating it."

Officials from NASA, however, were quick to play the comments down.

In a statement, a spokesman said: "NASA does not track UFOs. NASA is not involved in any sort of cover up about alien life on this planet or anywhere in the universe.

'Dr Mitchell is a great American, but we do not share his opinions on this issue.'

Yes.

Even if you can dismiss most of the reports as bullshit, can you really dismiss ALL OF THEM as bullshit? Is there some vast global conspiracy to create a vast global conspiracy?

You really shouldn't take off your helmet during moon walks...

**BigMeatballDave** · 07-26-2008, 12:01 PM

Yes. Not because I have seen any, but because the Universe is way too big for us to be alone in it.

Well there is a pretty big difference between saying that and saying that they have visited us. I believe there is life out there. Have they ever been here? I am less sure about that one.

I was on a long driving business trip the last couple of days, and drove right by this place. I didn't stop, though, because I figure climbing onto that platform just makes you a target for aliens.
