Former NASA astronaut and moon-walker Dr. Edgar Mitchell — a veteran of the Apollo 14 mission — claims aliens exist. He says extraterrestrials have visited Earth on several occasions — but the alien contact has been repeatedly covered up by governments for six decades. Mitchell, 77, said during a radio interview in Birmingham, England, that sources at NASA who had had contact with aliens described the beings as "little people who look strange to us." He said supposedly real-life ET's were similar to the traditional image of a "small gray" — short, slight frame, large eyes and large head. Mitchell also claimed human technology is "not nearly as sophisticated" as the aliens' and "had they been hostile," he warned "we would be been gone by now."

Why the presumption that we would ever know that aliens visited the earth, or that they would contact us if they did? Visitors from space would have to be able to travel faster than light. If you can travel faster than light, you can control light, so you could not be detected by anything we know, including vision.
UFO believers also presuppose that although aliens can travel across interstellar distances, their technology limits their ability to observe a planet unless they land on it. That doesn’t make sense if you think about it. We use remote sensing, people who can avoid asteroid strikes at a million miles an hour would have to have much better remote sensing or they would be killed in flight.

as hard as i try, i just can’t do remote viewing (so i can see what my teens are up to) :)
Yep. This confirms my suspicion: a flake.
Repeat after me: there are no such things as space aliens. Only undocumented workers.
This is kind of a duplicate thread...

That thread has already had over 400 replies...some of the loons are out in full force...it’s a hoot...
Not necessarily. The crew of a spacecraft traveling just short of lightspeed would experience relativistic time dilation, thus aging more slowly. If you can get close enough to C, you can go anywhere in the universe in one lifetime.
That having been said, there's still the problem of
1) Actually building such a spacecraft.
2) The fact that there isn't the slightest evidence that such a spacecraft has ever visited us.
Well, there is the entertainment value involved...the more threads, the more laughs...
Glad you can count.

I have you down, then as an emphatic skeptic.
Addicted to a TYPE II ERROR bias wholesale.
Some abductees have reported seeing sizeable intergalactic zoos on some of the super huge mother ships far out in space.
and why would they always hover around with their landing lights on, as if we couldn’t see them? Hmm?
Everybody may or may not know about Pine Gap and the American UFOs that may or may not be based here and that may or may not fly out of there every day for the past 60 years.
Well..geesh! Where do think "TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER" originated? ;^)
I’m pretty sure you were joking, but your post brings up an interesting point. Is there any evidence that travel to the moon did affect the astronauts’ cognitive abilities?
