UFOs!

[falcosenna1 8,320]

They did anyway. We think like that because we haven't reached that kind of stage yet. If you would tell someone in 13th century that you could go around the world in 30 hrs they wouldn't have believed it either.

So many UFOs have been "spotted", but there still is lack of scientific evidence. If they really exist, one of the numerous satellites must have captured their presence.

Even if they do( and I think they have) do you think they will tell everyone "Hey everyone, we found your Gods". No. That would cause panic and protests.

Watch the movie "Contact" or read about theories and people like Thomas Castello.

If you do want to watch a real UFO, watch videos of 'phoenix lights' and explain that.

No

Movies... That's not what you can call "reliable information". And yes, if they discovered extraterrestrial life or proof that UFOs exist, the whole world would know it in less than 5 minutes.

I once saw a UFO flying in Silence. Or it was a hacker.

Did you read up on 'Phoenix Lights' or maybe 'Solvay Firth Spaceman'. Those photos and videos were taken by ordinary people but the episodes were suppressed by the government.

[snipe3000 678]

I haven't seen any UFOs yet and I don't think I'll ever see one since I don't believe they exist. Although I do believe in extraterrestrial life. 

On other planets i dont

That^

The chance of super smart "scientists" living elsewhere in our galaxy is low, but the chance that there is life elsewhere (microbial, bacterial) is pretty high. Well, life started on our planet, so it could've started in other planets too under the right conditions.

Our galaxy is extremely big. There are enough star systems to support billions of advanced civilizations without any of them knowing about another.

Universe is a big place my friend.

So you don't think that extraterrestrials are smart enough to make spaceships. Well I think the gods who came to earth thousands of years ago were aliens who had superior technology and who primitive humans thought to be Gods.

Come to think of it. All those wars between Greek Gods and stories of them controlling lighting etc. Doesn't it sound more scientific than magical??

Mahabharata, the longest epic in the world speaks of technology of Gods using weapons like nuclear bombs and laser guided missiles and planes too!!

Mahabharat didnot have all that crap

+ they gods in human forms

Haha, and you think the satelites will tell everyone?  :rolleyes: obviously not.They keep it all secret.

What about Brahmastra?? What about pushpaka vimana used by Ravana?? What about astras?? I think these were scientific gadgets which ancient humans did not know.

By Occam's razor what is simple?? All powerful God becoming half human to go to earth out of gazillions times gazillions of planets sustaining complex intelligent life OR extraterrestrials with advanced science finding earth and deciding to educate humans about science and philosophy??

[MarineMan2 1,164]

I completely agree with you. 

 

If we do discover extraterrestrial life, it will most probably be microbes and bacteria. I'm not saying they (extraterrestrials in general) are not smart enough to build spaceships IF they're already in a further stage, IF they're already better developed, but it would be physically impossible I think. They would either have to travel at an unreachable speed or they would have to reach an incredibly high age to reach our planet alive. 

Firstly, I agree that the probability of finding another intelligent life form on another planet is incredibly slim, and that if anything were to be found, it would likely be microbial. But I would like to point out, that firstly, it would not be "physically impossible" to reach our planet, simply because we can't reach / see them (assuming there is a "them"). Furthermore, a long lifespan, is all relative, so for a creature that lives for say a thousand years, I think they'd have time to make their way across the universe, as they don't have the age constraint that humans do. There are too many variables for us to even attempt to predict, but when speaking about the matter, be careful you don't make assumptions of the such.^

 

So many UFOs have been "spotted", but there still is lack of scientific evidence. If they really exist, one of the numerous satellites must have captured their presence. 

And I ENTIRELY disagree with what you've said here. As really, we're a speck of nothing in time, of a speck of nothing in space. If there were to be some intelligent other life form, perhaps they view us, the way we view cows.

 

Now, despite all I've said here, I'd like to say that I personally remain neutral in such a debate regarding intelligent extraterrestrial life forms. Though I'm happy to jump in when I see something interesting, and not too far fetched, I also think there is a time to draw the line and appreciate we can't fathom things we've never seen, experienced, or heard. (<--Rumors aside.)

That's why I wrote 'IF' in capital letters. I do agree with what you said about the too many variables.

If they would view us from their planet, they would now probably be seeing dinosaurs taking the speed of light into account. The images they get/form of our planet will always have to travel back from our planet to their planet at the maximum speed of light which will still take numerous hundreds of years. Traveling faster than the speed of light is impossible, because you'll go back in time then. But if they managed to reach our planet (with their so called UFOs), the lack of scientific proof is a real obstacle to believe it (well developed extraterrestrials) in my opinion. 

[ThouShallNot 963]

OOOOORRRR maybe planets like earth are so typical that they don't even bother to pass by and say hi, or maybe they're hiding from us.

I adore you for saying these!

You know, I like astrophysics :wub:

 

[S.C.Y.T.H.E 1,072]

When UFOs were first 'seen', they looked like 'flying saucers'. They were circular, like a dish. 

Nowadays most 'UFOs' are triangular, and more modern looking. 

If you look at the dates of when the UFOs changed appearance, it directly coincides with the invention of stealth technology (stealth planes, like the F-117 or B2 Spirit). Stealth technology uses its triangular shape to help deflect radar. 

I have seen some strange sights in the sky though. I am pretty sure that I have seen a drone flying over, and once what looked like a Flying Fortress from world war II. I live near an airforce base, so I am not surprised. 

 

Also, studies have been done on supposed 'pictures' of UFOs. 95% of all of them were proven to be fakes without a shadow of a doubt, and the remaining 5% could still be fakes, or pictures of real things that aren't actually UFOs. 

 

It is statistically likely that there is life elsewhere in the universe. But it is incredibly unlikely that there is anything like this within a few lightyears. Why would some strange alien society fly for years and years just to come to our planet, but not announce that they exist, but carefullly kidnap us and do experiments? 

If an alien society actually was somehow observing earth, they wouldn't have gotten here through spacecraft. It would have been through some kind of device that warps time/space, which is theoretically possible. 

And if they did discover that we exist, would be very exited and not secretly study and kidnap us...

Yes, in my dreams B)

I'd actually like to present a simple statement, that if pondered upon, can result in much thought; "The truth changes everything.". No matter what the subject, that will always be true. And right now, humans live most of their lives as a lie! Not through deception, but ignorance. As, in truth, we don't fully grasp how the speed of light works. And we THINK that we understand how time works (when time is in truth just a perception we use, that serves nothing more than to help keep us sane. And since time is a perception, you can't go back in... "it".). This is becoming too much about the IFs, but my point is, there could be some way around the issue regarding the speed of light.

One time I was camping with my dad, and we heard a deranged screeching sound once in a near by field. We went to check it out and there was nothing there, I couldn't sleep for the rest of the night XDD

I haven't seen a UFO but I do believe in things like ghosts - I saw one in a church, bit freaky because I was only like 4, so why would a 4 year old make up a story like that? I didn't even know there was such a thing as a ghost - when we left, I remember asking who the "green girl" was. Scary!

your eyes playing tricks on you i think :P

It's NOT real.
