There was an Area 51 doc that I watched not all that long ago that had all kinds of reputable people, including ex presidents, who all said that the crashed UFO in Roswell had 3 bodies in it, 1 of which was taken alive to be tested and they weren't human. I don't know what to believe personally because politicians are liars by nature, but it's a big universe and ours can't be the only planet on it with intelligent life surely. |

I can't believe in the Area 51 thing - I just don't think an alien race with the intelligence and technology to be able to travel how ever many millions of light years to get here would just "crash" so easily. We may have been visited by ETs, but apart from a field-trip study by green-skinned students, what interest would we be? |

I do believe that there are many other planets in the solar system with life living on them and some with intelligent life.
However I feel they're too far away from us for us to ever know.
So no I don't think we have been visited. |

I think we have been visited in the past. Nazca lines in Peru and ancient hyrogliphs suggest as much. Perhaps they are watching us and waiting for us to advance enough to stop fighting between ourselves before contacting us again. If you beleive we are alone, google drakes equation ... |

Not in our solar system, but possibly the galaxy and almost certainly the universe  |

Yes I meant to say the universe. |

The drake equation is very interesting |

Maybe things went Pete Tong to the style of War Of The Worlds and the wee grey boyo's caught themselves a cold lol |

"Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics certainly seem to show spacecraft and aliens so makes you wonder. "
But were they images of what they saw? The Egyptians had fertile imaginations when it came to "other worldly" stuff in their artwork - they had animal gods depicted with other animals' heads etc. Possibly they saw things like they pictured, or possibly they had the same inventive imagination as other humans have. |

Yes, I think people often underestimate early humans |

people ALWAYS underestimate early humans. Just because they hadn’t invented electricity or the internal combustion engine doesn’t make them any less intelligent. |

I'm not convinced there is intelligent life in the milky way galaxy . I believe there is intelligent life in the universe but it's so far away that were basically alone. |

"films always represent the size of alien craft as size of a plane or a mile across..just as likely to be size of a jaffa cake and the occupants ant size"
.
Actually I think physics puts all the life sustaining planets at earth size plus or minus 2 deviations.
Life on earth consists of the five main elements in the same ratio as the universe, it's not impossible to find a tiny silicone based life form but the odds favour something similar to us.
Physics and more to the point quantum theory even makes the supposed great distances irrelevant, it's likely that aliens will travel through dimensions and not space.
Any intelligent species will always have a curiosity factor and all life is curious. |

No, I don't believe that they have visited earth. I'm not aware of any evidence that would support us having been visited by advanced tech. aliens.
I also think that it's more likely than than not that we haven't been visited by aliens from unimaginably long distances away, when we're probably not even that interesting to them, compared to all the other incredible things that they could be doing instead. |

Of the 200 billion stars in our own galaxy, 10% have planets with earth like qualities, thats 20 billion potential life sustaining planets in our own galaxy alone, and there are 16 trillion galaxies out there.
Is there life ? Id say definitely but i doubt they would have made the trip to earth with saying hello. |

Drakes equation is very interesting the main issue is its estimated values for its factors are conjectural and not able to be based on solid figures therefore making it a speculative intellectual theorem rather than anything based on a solid mathematical base. |

I wonder if we found a constant mathematical
etc'proof of life/intelligence
'signal ,the first thing governments would do is point nuclear missile outwards..or do nothing .or send a signal back.. |

My figures came from a night with brian cox a few weeks ago, he also said we have counted and confirmed 3000+ planets capable of sustaining life.
But i get where your coming from |

Ok putting a sensible head on, we have evolved (technology) dramatically in the last 100 yrs..
Far more than we probably should have??
So it’s a known fact that there are an estimated 3000 planets in our galaxy that will be able to support life, life may now even exist on mars and one of Saturn’s moons
Life will exist where conditions are right, to think earth is the one planet in a galaxy of billions where life happened, is to be frank ridiculous.
Intelligent life, our own race evolved over a small amount of time, it’s most likely that s dominant race will also evolve on each planet able to sustain life.
Thus it’s very likely if you consider we are one of 3000 planets where life exists in our galaxy
That we are not top of the 3000
Let’s say we are about 75% above most in the evolution scale.
This would mean 750 types of race have evolved more than we have.
Some will be far more advanced than us.
So if these figs are even partially correct, then it’s very likely we have been visited in the past, now,and in the future...
It just makes logical sense |

If we are being serious then I agree with you. I believe in the theory that what our ancestors thought of as gods and angels were more likely visitors but they didn't know the correct term to describe them. After all the bible claims God wasn't from this planet but created it and us so obviously God would be an alien lifeform. |

.
If you follow logic it will be most likely that alien "life" will be artificial, although artificial is a loose human term, they'll be highly intelligent self aware AI created by somebody, they will seek the creator just like we do and part of that journey will be life study.
I have no doubt the earth has been visited many many times. |

Considering the vast size of the Universe and the billions of stars, most with planets orbiting, it would be very big headed is us to assume life does not exist elsewhere.
Scientists base their ideas on what we need on Earth for its many species to exist. Carbon based lifeforms which require an exact set of circumstances to thrive.
Evolution states that all living things on our planet have adapted to their surroundings, and are still evolving to this day. Why should this not be the case for other lifeforms? To adapt and evolve to the environments they are in. Not to mention the vast number of Earth like planets.
Forbidden history. Items discovered from antiquity that simply should not exist. Models and cave paintings of flying machines and their occupants. The Nasca lines, many thousands of years old, but intended to be viewed from a high altitude. The pyramids of Giza which align exactly with Orion. The many artifacts seen on the surface of Mars by the rovers we sent there.
It's always good to keep an open mind. But you could say there is already evidence to support the existence of extraterestrial life. We're with the yes crowd. |

interesting point that.Either God doesn't exist or he Must be an alien.. That'd drive bible bashers nuts.Although I'm led to believe he moves in mysterious ways.  |

If there is an intelligent lifeform that has the capability to travel faster than light, chances are they've intercepted a transmission of Jeremy Kyle or Even an Alex Jones podcast and decided to write a bad review for the intergalactic trip advisor. Probably says a bit more than "Mostly Harmless". |

"Allegedly Jesus died on the cross and was resurrected three days later. He then was seen to rise up into the sky surrounded by a bright light.
Maybe it was a case of "beam me up Scotty"...

it was a weather balloon they saw. M.I.B.  |

If Planet Earth is on some form of alien trip advisor its probably under the heading 'AVOID'
Call me cynical but If they landed I think they would probably be captured imprisoned interrogated tortured and eventually killed and dissected. |

What items from history have been discovered that shouldn't exist? Genuine question.
I've looked at the nazca lines. One thing that strikes me is the apparent basic nature of something built by a life form with the technology to travel in space. I agree that they're probably best seen from above but even the tiny bit of reading I did says that's possible from nearby hill tops. |

"Some people want to believe in little grey/green men and if they want to they can I wqon't be joining them though. "
I don't know either way. I just haven't seen anything on this thread that gives direct evidence or proper, coherently thought through explanations. |

I think you'll find the latest edition says "mostly harmless". |

If intelligent life has arisen many times in our own galaxy. Where us everyone? ?
Many of the planets discovered out side of our solar system are tidal locked with their sun and have no magnetic field.
The earth is rare and quite possibly unique. I prefer the rare earth hypothesis as to why we are alone in our galaxy. |

How do we even know if humans were the first intelligent race on earth?
It’s now considered possible that mars was once earth like, that the asteroid belt was once another planet that was destroyed
So how can we be sure life hadn’t evolved elsewhere in our solar system??? |

We don't have any evidence for it.Not impossible.
I suspect we will find life on Mars and some of Jupiter's moons but it'll be bacteria and simple cellular organisms. |
