If they come to Earth, they’ll be given a democrat voter registration, EBT card, and an obama phone.

Hey! At least ET will be allowed to phone home!

[varon]

I find it difficult to think of a microbe as an alien............

[Boonie]

Totally different requirements for life could also be a reason why far superior intelligent life forms have not visited earth.

[Vinylly]

Sorry but it is not Potential. We're already slaves.

[GOPJ]

Unicorns are out there too..

[Erik Latranyi]

AND THEY ARE RAISING THE TEMPERATURE OF EARTH’S CLIMATE!!!

We are the frogs in the pot!!!

[MHGinTN]

What a freakin’ charade! These guys are merely trying to continue their gravy train while ignoring the evidence already found on Earth’s Moon, Mars, a Moon of Mars, the Moons of Saturn, etc. NASA has controlled the data allowed out to the public and these mooches know they can count on the great lie to continue so they should get funding for their aiding and abetting the lie. Sickening crap ...

[Falcon4.0]

Or Undocumented Star Voyagers.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Longer, I think. And nothing to show for it but background noise.

[Texan5]

It’s a cookbook!!!

"Aliens Are Almost Definitely Out There, SETI Astronomers Tell Congress"

I've seen similiar arguments somewhere before. Now I remember ...

Aliens Are Global Warming Is Almost Definitely Out There, SETI Astronomers Earmark-Seeking Global Warming Alarmists Tell Congress

>Jhn 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

And he likely made the Aliens we have not yet met.

I find it difficult to think of a microbe as an alien............

That's how they start out. A billion years later though...

[RansomOttawa]

Does this mean that if you’re a SETI scientist, it’s just fine to believe in invisible sky fairies you’ve never found evidence of? Just asking.

[discostu]

Mathematically it’s gotta happen. The only real question is how FAR out there? Could be a very very long way.

[Reeses]

However, Werthimer said that the US was in danger of being overtaken by other nations, with China currently developing a radio telescope 500 metres in diameter

Radio telescopes are WWII technology. Let's see quantum telescopes. Send half the entangled particles out to space, keep the other half and amplify their signals.

It made more sense the first time I read the title. I changed the “Out There” to an “In Here:”

“Aliens Are Almost Definitely In Here, SETI Astronomers Tell Congress”

[MHGinTN]

The same source gives us several scenes which bespeak other spacetime realms no further away from us than the length of your arm. But we do not sense them. Why? Now there’s a question these self-proclaimed brilliant scientists should be researching.

[spankalib]

That is essentially the point of putting all those together -
there ARE “inhabited” worlds.

[discostu]

Problem with the Fermi Paradox is it never really grasps just how big things are even at a “practical” pace of interstellar travel it’s a long haul. Not to mention that it completely ignores the fact that as of yet we have no idea how long it takes to get from beginning to have science to a practical pace of interstellar travel if such a thing is even possible.
