Alien/UFO 15 Signs Why Aliens Actually Exist

[Sydney Bloods]

Drake's equation, especially when you extrapolate it to billions of galaxies, makes the idea of Earth being the only place to have life as being conceit of the highest order. That said I don't think they've been visiting to anally probe drunk American farmers and tip over cows (WTF sort of racist bullshit is this anyway? Are Australian farmers puckers not up to some intergalactic standard? And Australian Beef > US Beef).

Can't blame the aliens they've probably seen deliverance and thinks thats how American farmers say g'day.

Yeah.

My position is that if there was an alien race that had traveled here they would obviously be much, much more advanced than us and there would be two options.
1) They want to make contact, or;
2) They want to remain hidden from us

If 1, they would do it. The 'land on the whitehouse lawn' moment.
If 2, we would have absolutely no idea they were here. Beings capable to travelling interstellar distances would be so far ahead of us it isn't funny. We wouldn't be taking photos of them and they wouldn't be crashing ships all over the place.

This is pretty much my view. If they're intelligent and advanced enough to travel to us, they are clearly far, far more advanced than we are - thus they have nothing to fear (save for atmospheric conditions and earthly microorganisms, which you'd think would be less complex than the problems associated with interstellar travel to overcome). So why would they go cut shapes in somebody's corn crops, or hover over the ocean for a few seconds? "It must be aliens," is a bizarre explanation for most UFO sightings, and creates more questions than it answers.

This one is always amusing for sci-fi movies. You think how far technology has progressed in the last three or four hundred years. Take Australia back to a pre-industrial age world and we'd conquer it with our armed forces without much effort. It'd take a bit more than a computer virus to take out a civilisation that's thousands if not millions (or tens or hundred of millions) of years ahead of us. If any alien civilisation capable of reaching Earth wasn't friendly we'd be royally screwed.

Alien Ambassador
In September of 2010, The United Nations appointed Malaysian astrophysicist Mazlan Othman to head the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), which deals with all space related activity — including alien visitors.


The Alien Harvest
After a team of British scientist sent a balloon into the outer reaches the stratosphere, they were baffled when it came back carrying tiny biological organisms. These organisms, which the balloon accidently harvested in space, have the scientist convinced that alien life exists as they believe they can only have originated in space.

The Numbers Game
Our galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy, measures up to 120,000 light-years across and contains about 400 billion stars. It’s said that about half of these stars include at least one planet within their orbit. That's a lot of planets, and a good chance for alien life we haven't yet discovered. But it gets even more interesting when you learn that, in 2001, scientist using the "Drake Theory" determined that thousands of these same planets host the ideal conditions to support life. In the game of numbers, those are winning odds for the prospect of alien beings.

The first one, That chick looks like an ET

The Numbers game, is all we have to bank on at the moment. Not really proof as such but probably the most promising info to come out on this topic

Indeed. I love sci-fi though so I'm happy to temporarily suspend disbelief.

That said, I think Falling Skies does a reasonable job of it. The insurgent style warfare against a technologically superior enemy is probably the most realistic depiction of how it would go down.

I'd like to see a show dealing with how we'd react is an alien fleet showed up in the solar system, didn't hide, but didn't contact us either, and then started building a base/army on Mars.

 

[Taylor]

What that boils down to is that these astronomers found that the average density of stars in the universe has been determined to be about 1.4 stars per 100 billion cubic light-years, which relates to an average distance between stars of about 4,150 light-years.

It took us about 12,000 years to split the atom, maybe 500 years of electricity in and we are barely able to start listening in on our local environment. So far we haven't blown ourselves up but if that number is standard for life then we need them to leave to come here from no more than three stars away and not arrive outside of our little window of perceptive existence.

The problem with the Drake equation is that many of the variables in the equation are completely unknown and are probabilities based on one and one only example (Earth).

It was never intended as a 'formula with an answer - it was more an expression of the issues facing alien life expressed in a simple equation which states some of the problems that need to be overcome. It is by no means a complete list of potential issues. To use a trivial example, it assumes that all stars emit benign radiation (light/heat only) - many stars emit regular gamma ray bursts which would basically wipe out any life forms it contacts.

Sure, plenty of scientists have had a bash at guessing some of the variables, but your guess is probably as good as any other. It's meant to incite discussion.

But don't hold the equation up as a valid 'scientific and/or mathematical proof' that says life MUST be out there.

 

[Niximus]

If we did happen to find life on Europa or Titan, or elsewhere within our own solar system, and it had arisen completely separately from life on Earth, I would be convinced that not only is life out there in the universe, but that it is extremely common.

It doesn't even need to have arisen separately. If like from Earth travelled there on an asteroid (or vice versa), then life on two disparate eco-systems would point to it getting a hold in lots of places.

Are we talking about aliens or getting a woman off, because if it's the latter it's because I'm terrible in bed.

It would certainly point to live being hardy, but travel within a star system is very different to travelling to other star systems.

Independent origin would point to life arising all over the place. If it is related to Earth life, it is unlikely that it would be able to spread beyond the solar system.

Kindly leave your ridiculous conspiracy theories out of this discussion Now here is an interesting link:

Can't even get his alien names right.
the Pleiadeians get their name from the Pleiades star cluster that's in our galaxy not andromeda which is a separate galaxy.

Piss poor researcher if you ask me, but it is nice to see an alien race nice enough to use root Greek words that are easy to pronounce by humans. Unlike those pesky Norwegians.

I would've went with unverified Female Orgasm.

They don't know what they believe in,in fact. but everyday do something religious.

When you speak methane is ejected at a high rate.

 

[scotty13]

Ive got no doubt there are other life forms out there. With the amount of possible galaxies out there there has to be something else. Anyone thinking we are alone is wrong.
I also believe that there are 'alien' life forces living on earth today, and in the past. They may be here as an animal, or maybe they are disguised as humans. who knows? well apart from them, and maybe a few government organisations, probably no one.

 

[TheKanga]

Great OP

I believe for sure, but it's frustrating that i will probably never see them with my own eyes.
The next closest star is 4.3 lightyears away with current tech it would take an insurmountable amount of time.
The Voyager probes launched in the 1970's (which have now left our solar system)
Would take tens of thousands of years to reach this system.
The universe is so massive it's insane!

One for the sheep who like to think thier not sheep, like atheism. Having said that, there's some interesting phenomena amongst the bullshit.

When the LA searchlights thing happened, wasn't the Germans flying long range reconnaissance aircraft over the USA. On buzz aldrin, how could of he of seen what he says he did from a film studio?

I'm not saying that was aliens in LA in 42, but there's no way it was a "long range German reconnaissance aircraft".

Not being nasty or cynical, but 'anyone thinking we are alone' is merely making a conjecture based on multiple assumptions and an extremely small sample size of actual useful data - ie our solar system.

'Anyone thinking we are not alone' is doing exactly the same thing.

You forgot crop circles.

i was well into this type of stuff a while ago now
man made imo
if intelligent life is going to communicate imo it wont do so by putting patterns in fields
