On what basis?

The lack of intelligent life here.

there's already been plenty of proof....some of it hidden in plain sight... but people have been systematically brainwashed to believe in fairy-tales and fiction ("science", "religion" and "fairy-tales"), to explain extraterrestrial phenomeon, instead...

Exactly

Exactly

So, where's the proof?

Perfect example:

The odds of Earth dwellers being the only living beings in the universe are astronomical and extremely unlikely...

That's now what I understand as proof.

has anyone here ever had an experience they thought might have been an encounter with an alien? like, that job interview with the beehive-hairdo lady where you could have sworn her hair was moving by itself and maybe hiding something living?

Yes indeed!

There's a cashier at McDonald's that is definitely wearing a human skin costume.

Yes the Voyagers have their own twitter account.

Yes us earthlings are some goofy folks.

Its a story about a McDonalds that captures the humans who come in to order food. When our plucky protagonists show up and figure things out they flee then the entire McDonalds blasts off into space cause its a disguised spaceship full of human cargo. Snacks for the aliens long interstellar journey.

Is that why the last time I ate Mickey D's a couple of weeks ago after years of not doing so the reason why I started getting alien vibes from the place and feeling very...weird afterward?

U do realize that if God actually exist.....that it is an alien by definition.

no aliens r not of this earth..God is not of this dimension

anything that is not OF the Earth, is alien to it... its that simple...

Exactly. Aliens aren't of this dimension either.

could be. did the Micky D. behind the counter shed his human skin suit with a nasty wet *splop* and emerge as a blob with green and purple tentacles???

Not quite--but the non-English speaking newbie dropped a huge ketchup bag onto the floor and it exploded like a bag of blood! Puddles every where! I'm still suspicious...

The correct answer to

'What Happens Next If We Find Proof of Space Aliens?'

is to run and hide

In Space, No one can hear you scream.

One of those people responsible for this modern day search is Jill Tarter, the now retired former director of the Center for SETI Research of SETI, or better known as a real-life alien-hunting astronomer. She spent her career obsessed by tracing the faint signs of extraterrestrial life, her passion never going unnoticed, in 1997 she was portrayed on the big screen by a younger Jodie Foster in the universally praised film Contact.






Should we encounter an extraterrestrial civilisation, Jared Diamond makes the statement that “the most dangerous people are the naïve astronomers who want to send messages into outer space to come wipe us out, like a request for decimation”. What do you think of that?

There is a controversy at the moment in the community over whether we should be transmitting, or passively listening, or both. I’ve tried, through the AAAS and other venues, to start a conversation around this existential question about whether we should transmit as well as listen, and it’s discouraging to me that within the SETI community people just shout their same message louder at each other, without a lot of changing of opinions.

What I have been trying to implement in some fashion, is that the conversation takes place among people other than first world white males, that we find a way to get voices from other traditions and cultures into this discussion. It really is a global discussion, and one thing that I think is useful to bring to the table, and something that people very often don’t think about, is time. Rather than a 2 or 5-year plan, this has to be a 10,000-year project, because our galaxy is 10 billion years old and vast. So if you transmit a message for a short period of time – a day, month or year – that signal is going to wash past a potential recipient and be missed if they are not looking at us at exactly the right time and in exactly the right way.

The rallying cry is that if everybody is listening and nobody is transmitting it’s not going to work, so we have to hold up our end of the bargain into the foreseeable future. I don’t think we are sophisticated, wise, and old enough yet to do this. I think the transmission is in our future when we ourselves have become an old and stable civilisation. That means when we have solved the problems of our planet like climate and food and water strategy, managing the planet systematically for a long future. When we get there, then we can plan a 10,000-year project.
