There is proof that aliens from outter space are living here. Look at the democratic party. Nuff said.

i think most UFO sightings and phenomena have been federal agencies like NASA doing tests and joint testing programs with private companies like Lockheed and Halliburton. you have to consider the fact that there are weapons and weapons testing that go awry and/or of the likes of things that we've never seen. i'm sure the government and other private agencies create/invent all kinds of things and have to test them... and sometimes these tests end up being seen by the general public. and when that happens, there's a cover up, and things are kept confidential.\n\nIf aliens have made contact by now, they would be quite advanced and i don't believe that they would let just fly over rural areas and be haphazardly/accidentally be seen by the public. \n\nOne assessment that could be true: maybe they already made contact, saw how primitive our technology is (we haven't been able to send humans past our own moon and we're still waging war against one another with nuclear weapons...) and decided to leave us alone because they didn't want to interfere with our evolution/progress.\n\nno alien contact until we can solve our own problems.\n\nso to answer your question: nah, probably not... those agencies are too busy figuring weapons that will allow us to destroy one another.

I know it could be an invention in some way(s), because the American government was the first ones to say there was a UFO. Majority Americans were the ones to created the word or idea of aliens, except for the "Dropa stones" in China/Asia, which humming discs tell a story of outside life crashing a spaceship on planet earth long millenia ago. Interesting... hmmmm.

No one withing the general public knows the answer to this question. There has been a lot of conspiracy around that incident. According to the locals who were directly involved in the "crash", they said yes. According to the military, they say no. \n\nRight now, it will have to be left up to your personal belief. Do you believe that there is undocumented life beyond our solar system? If so, do you belive it is intelligent life? If so, do you believe that life is capable of coming to Earth? \n\nSince the Government will not or cannot confirm either way, there is no real answer to this question.

Like "Timelord" said, their equipment is too damp and rusty for them to get through to us, also they're too busy reading "The Da Vinci Code" and "Chariots of the Gods" and trying to work out if there is intelligent life on Earth. The truth is that for many people the fact that they would like something to be true is a good enough reason to believe it, that's why so many people read the National Enquirer (or the Sunday Sport in the good old UK) - it's also why Bush is president.\nSharpen your Occam's Razor, mate. (See my answer to "How can we tell if aliens exist")

I think that personal anecdotes of alien abductions and accounts from former military personnel about supposedly classified government information on alien visitation are untrustworthy for a variety of reasons. \n\nI find the ancient artwork and accounts of people travelling in strange flying craft slightly more compelling, but again not really good evidence. \n\nThe existence of large jumps in technology in ancient civilizations might be taken as evidence by some, but I think it just points to the inventiveness of humans. \n\nWe do not have any good photographic or other evidence of alien visitation. \n\nWe do not have any physical evidence of alien visits, like materials unknown on earth. Crop circles do not constitute good physical evidence. \n\nSo, at least in my opinion, the evidence for alien visitation is very very weak.

To each their own..But I say YES...there have been UFOs that have crashed in the U.S. and more recently Russia..in 1983. Anyone can say no it is not true..but they are also ones who want hard facts...think they deserve hard facts...live very shallow lives...we have been visited through out the history of mankind..that is obvious..it has been recorded..if you look you will see the obvious.. Yes they are real..Yes the governments have been hiding the facts on this from the world..But there are governments that are beginning to come clean a slowly release information that was deemed CLASSIFIED. Millions have seen objects that are not terrestrial. The truth will be revealed to us eventually..I for one have seen several crafts and objects in my lifetime..I cannot believe anything other that WE ARE NOT ALONE...nor are we as intelligent as we boast we are...that.. can be seen daily..Time will reveal the truth. Then all the non believers can..crawl back under their rocks ..and continue to lead their shallow lives.

Some people will say anything to make money.  The reason people publish this stuff is it sells.  The fact is, if there were alien visitors advanced enough to travel so far to reach Earth, either they would want us to know they're here, and it would be really obvious, or they would not want us to know, and nobody, not the government, not even Steven Greer, could find them.  It is a case of fabricating data mixed with bad interpretations of real data.\n\nAs for "zero point energy systems"--sounds like "the Casimir effect"--while one can produce *very tiny* amounts of energy using quantum effects, one has to "pay the debt" immediately by replacing that energy.  The Casimir Effect cannot be exploited to generate energy.\n\nFinally--government coverup--while soldiers and intelligence officers are patriotic and will keep secrets so that Al Quaida doesn't receive any aid, such a large number of people that would have to be involved would NOT keep such a secret as aliens or alien spacecraft.  The U.S. Government would not want to keep such a secret anyway--people would insist on greatly increasing NASA's funding if they could provide evidence of estraterrestrial life--the LAST thing they would want to do is hide it!

There are a relatively small number of people that believe that the NASA moon landings were faked.  They do have quite a number of points that support their arguments.  Of course, all of these points have been responded to and all of their points have been debunked.\n\nThere will always be people who believe in vast conspiracies that require the combined silence of hundreds (or at least dozens) of people.  These same people often contend that the government is run by a bunch of idiots who couldn't find their rear ends with both hands and a map.  It can't be both.  Either the government is a group of super-secret geniuses or a bunch of bureaucrats who can't do most things properly or efficiently.  I believe it is the later.\n\nThere is no conspiracy except by the companies who lobby Congress to get money for their projects.

there have been several UFO crashes through out the world in the last 50 years..including the United States..and more recent Russia in the eighties with none human bodies recovered from the sites...but it is all the same..they are kept secret for their own gains and advantages..they are real...I have seen them several times in day and night in the sky...anyone who has that kind of government clearance ..to the ufos are under very close scrutiny..they are risking life if any information was to get out..that would be why...we never get any info about area 51..yes it is the greed factor...pity...we all could probaly be better off if those technologies from the downed crafts we given to the world to use..for the good of mankind ..and for our poor poor planet Earth

There are so many inexplicable details I have read regarding the an alien spaceship crashing in Roswell NM, which supposedly resulted in alien bodies being stored in AREA 51.\n\nIf there was really no crash, why did the military and the government threaten so many people to keep silent about what they saw?  Why was the area sealed off and every inch combed by hundreds of military personnel?

I have seen those same NASA pictures with those tall things you spoke of blurred out. You have to wonder just what it is they are hiding. It may not necessarily be anything alien, but some secret government project going on up there. However, I do believe there could be alien/ET activity going on also. I have seen some unbelievable footage over the last several months. Some of it is quite scary and makes you wonder just what is really going on in the world. I am convinced that there is major government cover-up when it comes to this stuff.

As a matter of fact, I did. I recall seeing a blurb about this in Chariots of the Gods. It was stated but not often reported that non-terrestrial ships were noted by astronauts. In fact, there is a number of sightings by NASA personnel re: extra-terrestrial encounters or 'experiences.' Project Blue Book was originally set out by the USAF in 1951 to address these concerns. The initial goal was to collect the stories and then to set about disclaiming or disproving them in public. The project backfired and ended up collecting far too much data for easy dismissal. What it did do however was highlight what was known, what material was collected and by whom. American citizens were fooled into thinking that their government wanted to know...when in fact it really wanted to cover the materail up PRIOR to information going to the press. To this day, much of the most interesting evidence re" extraterrestrial evidence has been prevented from being released and/or "lost."

why are u posting this in the astronomy and space part of a science and mathematics section of this site when clearly its a religous/cult/retard that needs a life question?oh ya  roswell doesnt have shit even if it was aliens what does that matter.what if the government was protecting from something that would make life horrible and completely worthless.

They absolutely do. And they are right to keep it secret.\n\nThink about it: If the gov't came out and said there were aliens out there which are way more powerful than us, there would be mass panic. No one would go to work. The economy would collapse.\n\nBy keeping the lies going they keep us all safe.

I do believe military intelligence have some evidence of possible contact . Sadly the subject has been treated as a joke by the tabloid media with terms like" little green men ". The best books i have read on the subject are by Timothy Good and Nick Pope. Millions of dollars have been spent on various projects investigating UFOs and is treated as a issue of security  and there's hundreds of expert witnesses like the cases involving objects seen over military installations . Some could be black projects new stealth technology but there still leaves a percentage that cant be simply explained away in my opinion  the subject should be treated a little bit more seriously.
