A computer programme which could help identify and even translate messages from aliens in outer space has been developed by a British scientist.
Even if there are extra terrestrials are one day discovered, scientists fear their alien tongue may make it impossible to understand them.
Alien life form: the new programme would compare alien language sounds with those of 60 human languages Alien life form: the new programme would compare alien language sounds with those of 60 human languages
But John Elliott of Leeds Metropolitan University believes he has come up with software which at least will decipher the structure of their language - and be the first step in understanding what they are saying.

a bit o' Cockney.
I think we would be better off trying to train dolphins to speak English.
Just put a screen underwater. Show a picture of Bob. Have the speakers say the word “Bob”. Do it with half a dozen people.
Then just show the picture. See if it says anything that could be interpreted as “Bob”. (or “dog” or “train” or whatever)
This would be an interesting experiment. I’ll bet a smart tenth grader could pull it off. Well, a tenth grader who has some dolphins laying around.
IIRC . . . most of the ‘greys’
if not all
have atrophe’d digestion tracts.
Reportedly they eat via some slurry on their skin. Which gets into a whole ‘nother kettle of . . . wellll . . . not fish.
Seems to me that tongues were missing on at least one ‘race’ of them.
What a thing to pint Martin on! LOL.
Those were the days my friend . . .
la la la
IIRC . . .
a dolphin
laying around
is a very sick dolphin.
. . . floating around?
But then, how many kids have olympic sized pools in their bedroom.
Hey Quix. What do you think of the theory that says that the E.T.s could be humans from our distant future who travelled back in time?
Freegards
Have pondered that ET’s from the future are us stuff off and on a fair bit though not exhaustively.
I don’t think it’s true.
1. The most reasonably moderate analysis of the evidence asserts that the “ET’s” lie horrifically.
2. All the better researchers who will admit it and be candid about it as well as government whistle blowers assert that they lie horrifically, chronically.
Kind of reminds me of the Father of lies.
3. I don’t think it would fit a number of Biblical aspects.
4. This appears to be the close of history as we’ve known it. This bootcamp for testing and training and testing some more those humans to rule and reign with Christ is about to have it’s last graduating class.
5. All creation has been growing yearning expectantly for that last graduation and for all Creation to be delivered of the weight, burden, pollution of sin, of missing the mark of perfection. Christ won that battle. It’s finished legally and in the spiritual realm. It will soon be finished in this time/space dimension and all others, as well . . . as best as I can figure out and discern.
6. God is the agent that transcends time. God is the ULTIMATE ACTOR upon HIS CREATION. He’s not about to surrender any significant chunk of His Glory or of His plans to some interlopers of HIS CREATED HUMANS from the future or any other part of the galaxy or whatever.
7. I think it’s just another sham to dupe the global citizens into a world government headed by satan and his fallen angels/ nephilium/ watchers/ ET’s. . . . part of the Biblically warned about DECEPTION SO GREAT
THAT WERE IT POSSIBLE, IT WOULD DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT.
is the best site that outlines what I think is the truest and most Biblical analysis of the whole field.
Thanks for your question. Am humbled by your asking it.
It’s an interesting fantasy . . . our offspring coming back to save their snotty nosed ancesters from ourselves???
I don’t think so. Christ Jesus is our ultimate and all sufficient all in all SAVIOR—as well as CREATION’S.
I believe all things are possible. I also believe the government is more than willing and capable of lying to us.
I also wonder if you only hear the stories about aliens covering vast divides "just to wiggle their digits in our backsides", or if that's all you think about.
Hey Quix. Thanks for taking the time to respond so completely. I think this stuff is neat to think about! And I don’t dig freepers being mocked out without the subject in question at least being briefly considered. That seems to happen on these UFO type threads all the time. I get that most folks don’t believe in this stuff (like me), but I don’t dig being rude to folks that are into it.
What if the E.t.s are the remnants of the unElect humans changed from Gods image and helped backwards through time by the Enemy? Maybe that’s why they would need all the weird human samples, perhaps their bodies would need infusions of the “pure stuff”.
It’s a good point you bring up though about God being apart from and having absolute control of time as we know it (and as we don’t know it, too!). But what makes you think that the Enemy wouldn’t have some sort of lesser sway over the dimensions, but way more than we seem to at this time at any rate?
Freegards
Yeah, the UFO threads bring out all kinds of arrogant reductionist intellectual haughty prissiness. Quite fascinating, though annoying.
The only major theme I’ve been able to deduce is chronic insecurity triggering derision so that the naysayer feels more competent and !!!!IN CONTROL!!!!
Anyway—I don’t know that we have sufficient solid info to say flat-footedly much of anything about the issue. So, of course, I had to write from my informed opinion.
Your hypothesis is as reasonable, probably, as a list of them.
It just doesn’t fit my intuition about it all. Doesn’t fit my sense of God’s priorities and ways of doing things that He’d allow that.
Another reason would be that ALL THE REASONABLE EVIDENCE CASTS !!!THIS!!! ERA AS THE BIBLICAL END TIMES.
That means a whole bunch of stuff plays out in this era landing us (before all those who were alive when Israel became a nation again in 1948 have died) in the 1,000 years of Christ’s perfect Peace followed by a short testing of humans at the end of that by a brief release of satan.
THEN THE CHARACTER IS LOCKED UP FOREVER. No pollution, as far as I can discern, of Creation by sin ever again. So there would not be any PROBLEM in the future for such ‘ET’s’ to come back and fix.
Interesting conjectures, anyway.
Thanks, for your attitude, tone and the honor of the dialogue.
Typical adolescent debating style of a liberal. When you call someone on a particular type of insanity, then you're accused of "being in the closet".
I know the government is capable of lying. I just don't think that the Government, and the Catholics, is in cahoots with aliens from another planet.
I've had almost 53 years to consider and reject the subject. There's no proof, there's none forthcoming, and "it's a Government coverup" is their excuse for not providing the proof (plus "conspiracies" also sells books and magazines).
“Thanks, for your attitude, tone and the honor of the dialogue.”
Same to you. It’s a neat subject.
Freegards
“I’ve had almost 53 years to consider and reject the subject.”
Thank you for safegaurding all of us with your experience. I just think it’s cool to think about sci-fi, and it’s interesting to find out what folks think about this stuff who are into the UFO/alien thing.
Freegards
I hate to see the Freep turned into a circus. Your mental health is your problem.
Should be an easy program to write, since wormhole traveling space monsters don’t exist.
That is because of their proximity to the Proximity IV star cluster.
Actually, I was referring to the tendency to equate aliens with the typical knee jerk initial thoughts of anal probes and cow mutilations.
It is you who took it to mean I was accusing you of "being in the closet".
Thanks thanks.
. . . on another but related note . . .
I see you’ve ran into some who’s parents obviously bred when others might have considered it unwise.
LOL.
Amazing how many mirrors are broken in some realms.
Some might assert it’s because of the bio-engineered bodies being short-lived housing for demons to operate through/in.
