superciuc Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Do you believe that they exist? I'm just curios. I think that they exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 No, I dont believe that they are from another world. If anything, its some form of high tech military survayance type hovercraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stecropper Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Yes I do. Just the numbers aspect of it all make it hard to ignore the likelyhood of their existence. I certainly don't believe most reports of UFO's but I likewise truly believe they exist now and have for thousands of years here on this planet. Example of what we are currently doing as an intelligent life form illustrates the interest and necessity for intelligent life forms to go beyond their own planet, solar system etc to explore for other suitable planets to continue their species. It is a scientific fact that our Sun, as does all Suns, eventually will burn out which will mean the end of this planet Earth. Although, thank heavens it likely will not happen for a few billion years from now. But that means that for the human species on earth to survive it will become a necessity to locate to another planet and we have begun that venture. With that logic and the belief that other intelligent life exist elsewhere and some are likely trillions of years more advanced than we are then how could one not assume that they also realized that they had to explore other locations to continue their species. At least that is how I feel about that subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEagles Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 There is no way that human beings are the most intelligent beings in the universe. If this is true, then that is depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, nevermind, I wont hijack this thread. On another note, back on topic that is, I remember watching something about UFO's on the History Chanel once, unwilingly that is, that said that there was this one poilet who claimed he saw several unidentified flying objects while flying to Colorado I believe, and that was like in the 30's-40's. He was the first to make such claims. Now, every weird thing people see or may not see in the sky, they clam in a UFO. If your ever bored sometime, go outside on a clea night, and watch several clusters of stars. Several will move in a circular pattern. Does this mean that they are UFO's? No. But can I explain it? No. Is there someone who can? Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJEagles Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 LOL. Anyway, no one knows for sure if there is intelligent life out there or not. We as humans, like to think we are the intelligent life...but as everyone knows, we haven't set a great example. Do I think there are UFOs and aliens out there? I sure hope so. If this is all there is, then that is sad. The universe is much to big, and we are nothing but a speck of dust in it. Who's to say there isn't another habitable world somewhere? Heck, who's to say there isn't another "Earth" somewhere, inhabited by humans, wondering the same questions we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 There once was a "contest" among scientists to try to find life on other planets, all exceot Mars because they believed that there was life on Mars. True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, we can't say that where there is an UFO there is an alien. Somebody is trying to build an UFO, from what i know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mav3rek Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 UFO's yes. Aliens...no. UFO's b/c I'm sure the government is working on some prototype things for the army and have to test these suckers out, and when someone sees them and they are top secret, they have to deny them. So they would be unidentified flying objects. Aliens? No. I can't say for sure that some random planet 400 billion light years away has some form of an intelligent species on it. But as for things like Independence Day, that will never happen. If they were superior and wanted Earth they would have taken it by now. Neither will ever happen. If they do exist, we'll never know. I'll be sure to ask God when I get up to Heaven though, just to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFallenPhoenix Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Yes I do. With that logic and the belief that other intelligent life exist elsewhere and some are likely trillions of years more advanced than we are then how could one not assume that they also realized that they had to explore other locations to continue their species. At least that is how I feel about that subject. While it is certainly possible that other intelligent life exists elsewhere in the Universe (I'd say incredibly likely, even if other intelligent life exist billions of light-years away in other galaxies), I do doubt they would be trillions of years more advanced than ours, if only because the Universe hasn't been around that long! Presuming the Sun is a third-generation star, and presuming that life could not exist around a first-generation star (considering the make-up of elements during first-generation star formation, this seems like a likely assumption, unless intelligent helium- or hydrogen-based life can exist), that only leaves the possibility that intelligent life can exist with second- or third-generation stars. This shrinks the window for intelligent life to less than ten billion years (as a liberal estimate), and is probably closer to eight billion years. Even that is probably a liberal estimate; I am inclined to think the window is closer to six or five billion years. That's still a lot of time for intelligent life to form and to become advanced, so it's very possible there can be life out there that are billions of years more advanced than humans. Still, I think that most intelligent life would be forming at about the same time as humans, and therefore wouldn't be too far more advanced. Nonetheless, in either case, there is no way of knowing where intelligent life rises, and it is just as likely that intelligent life can arise on the opposite side of the universe than somewhere else in our neighborhood (namely, somewhere in our galaxy). But even if intelligent life arises in our galaxy, unless technology allows for the breaking of the light-speed barrier, communication on an intragalactic (let alone an intergalactic) scale would be practically impossible, and that's assuming light-speed communication (as opposed to slower-than-light communication via 'visitation') ...so, in short, I'm doubtful that UFOs--while they exist by definition (as unidentified flying objects)--exist by popular interpretation (that they represent extraterrestrial spacecraft).

Padres67 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Joe Morgan is a perfect example of an alien who has invaded an earthly body-no one can make the stupid comments he makes and still be on TV unless he had some extraordinary power over the ESPN executives.

abc006 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 There is no way that human beings are the most intelligent beings in the universe. If this is true, then that is depressing.Well, the perfect combination of a solar system that let alone has planets, one that's in the right distance, and has resources for life, especially intelligent life, is really, really, slim. That said, the universe is really, really big. And that's not mentioning other dimensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matroska Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I believe there is life on another planet but the sun burning out wont be the reason for us to venture that far, its more likely that a nuclear holocaust will occur or something even more destructive (just imagine what they can come up with in the next 50 years) that will wipe us from existence than humans lasting 4 Billion more years peacefully.
