NASA Scientist Believes We're on the Brink of Discovering Aliens
ABC News ^ | Apr 8, 2015 | ALYSSA NEWCOMB

Not only does NASA's chief scientist believe alien life forms likely exist, but she said the space agency knows where to look and could discover signs of extraterrestrial life within the next decade.

Speaking on a panel discussion on Tuesday about water in the universe, NASA's chief scientist Ellen Stofan said she believes the first indications of alien life could come by 2025 -- with more concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life coming in 20 to 30 years.

We have all been subjected to a massive media push to desensitize the populace to their eventual revealing. Everywhere you look its' aliens, aliens, aliens.

True. What's really creepy, then, are the zombie movies. They're just as prevalent.

Oh, I had the “zombie” genre figured out a LONG time ago.

Most of the scenarios for zombie attack prevention or post-zombie apocalypse are applicable to the

....the aliens of “Independence Day”..

Have no fear. As a former cropduster, I can handle those jamokes!

I am also sure that I can master the F-15 with a little simulator time.... as long as there are no trees or transmission lines around.

The average scientist needs two data points from which to extrapolate a prediction. The extraordinary one can extrapolate from one data point. But it takes the truly incredible scientist to extrapolate from no data at all.

They may be so far advanced

Oooo. Maybe they see planet X and it's on it's way. According to .....somebody.....planet X is a collection of evolved souls. If so, they're not going to care much for liberalism (It doesn't get any more regressive and animalistic than that).

I don’t care how “advanced” they are. They couldn’t get here any more than we’ll ever get there.

My best bet is getting geologists to Mars with rock hammers and hand lenses. Or the Jovian or Saturnian moons. Or maybe detecting the chemical signals on some extraterrestrial atmosphere.

“It has been my belief for a long time that they have already been ‘discovered’.”

I never took any of this stuff seriously until the past few years. However, it has gradually become my belief that some actually believe they have already discovered aliens when in reality they are dealing with demonic activity. The concern is that said demonic activity might someday be revealed to the world as alien activity and play a role in deceiving the world in a move toward one world government.

If you look around there have been indications that powerful people and organizations have been contemplating just such an event for decades. John Dewey mentioned it in a speech roughly 100 years ago.

Dewey said, “Some one remarked that the best way to unite all the nations on this globe would be an attack from some other planet. In the face of such an alien enemy, people would respond with a sense of their unity of interest and purpose. We have the next thing to that at the present time. Before a common menace, North and South America, the Occident, and Orient have done an unheard of thing, a wonderful thing, a thing which, it may well be, future history will point to as the most significant thing in these days of wonderful happenings. They have joined forces amply and intimately in a common cause with one another and with the European nations which were most directly threatened. What a few dreamers hoped might happen in the course of some slow coming century has become an accomplished fact in a few swift years. In spite of geographical distance, unlike speech, diverse religion, and hitherto independent aims, nations from every continent have formed what for the time being is nothing less than a world state, an immense cooperative action in behalf of civilization.”

The numbers are too big to ignore, on two factors: there are too many planets to think that our existence was a fluke. But also, the distance between them and us is to vast to get there with our understanding of physics.

I regard "space aliens" as some sort of non-human, intelligent energy that can assume various physical forms in order to create illusions of physical objects ranging from "space ships" to alien beings to ordinary physical objects such as airplanes. Why? Who knows, but I've studied the phenomenon for years and there is just too much evidence that something real is happening to people.

The phenomena manifests in way too many different forms - some of them mimicking mundane earthly technology - to be taken seriously as interplanetary craft, not to mention that their reported behavior often defies the laws of physics.

Pinging the unidentified aerial phenomena list (ufo) ..

May 8, 1950-This is one of the most famous UFO pictures ever taken.
Photographed by Paul Trent, and first witnessed by his wife.
They were published in a local newspaper in McMinnville, Oregon.
Shortly thereafter, the Trent photos were published in Life magazine edition of June 26, 1950.
The rest is history.
(These photos have been deemed authentic for over 50 years. The analysis of the McMinnville photos by Dr.Bruce Maccabee PhD, can be found here = http://brumac.8k.com/trent1.html )

Those interested in the uap/ufo ping list, please Freepmail
LasVegasDave (freepmail works best)
if you would like your name added to the list.
( Approximately 200+ freepers are currently on the ping list ).

Unless they know how to create worm holes - a disruption of time and space.

AND if you go faster than the speed of light time slows down. What if there's a way to vibrate to such a low vibration that time speeds up?

Their faith in this is strong. Islam too.

Christianity? Not as much these days. They ‘science’.

But the NASA of old was a different workplace...

They may be so far advanced, and probably will be, from us that we look like insects to them..................

Even insect colonies don't get along.

Just another in the multitude of diversions to keep us distracted while the deficit increases and the list of freedoms shrinks.

The civic zombie apocalypse drill must be next week.

Ok. I'm a quantum physics buff. Nowhere near an expert. It just fascinates me.

According to theory, we live in a holographic type universe. Everything is vibratory, and our brains learn how to decipher the vibrations during gestation as well as after birth. A certain type of vibration, to us, is a tree. So, what if an entity knows how to manipulate those vibrations? They could make us believe they're anything or anyone.If they vibrate like a tree, we see a tree.
