Aliens exist — they just haven’t visited Earth, a NASA veteran has claimed.
Dr. Gentry Lee has worked at the US space agency since 1968, when he first got involved with the Viking mission to Mars. He has since spent more than half a century designing probes to land on distant planets — but argues Earth has not yet been visited by otherworldly beings.
“There exists nothing today that says any alien or any alien machine has ever landed on the planet Earth,” he told the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference in Phoenix. “If you believe otherwise, you are being misled.”
According to the expert, in every case of a supposed UFO sighting or alien encounter, there is likely a simpler explanation for those phenomena. But when it comes to distant planets, life has “just got to be there somewhere”. …

“There exists nothing today that says any alien or any alien machine has ever landed on the planet Earth,” he told the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference in Phoenix. “If you believe otherwise, you are being misled.”

Well said.
The “do exist” should more accurately be probably exist in his opinion.
Why would they want to? I’ve always said if aliens ever did land in this country and watched tv shows for 24 hours, they’d think every person in America was gay.
Well, they want to come here to vote for Democrats, evidently. (Yes, I am not talking about space aliens.)
They say they saw them. Just like people in the past saw pagan gods. There is most likely a correlation.
Why do you think Trump has ordered the release of the files? If there was nothing there, there would be no files.
You are such a blind fool.
“They say they saw them.”
UFOs have appeared in literature for 3,000 years. There are millions of photos, videos. I saw them when I was a little kid when I had never heard of them.
“Just like people in the past saw pagan gods.”
You will have to give me a clue about that. There are still pagan gods erected in all parts of the world.
As for ghost, Jesus gave the characteristics of a ghost to doubting Thomas.
How do you conclusively prove to yourself that the objects photographed are what certain people claim they are?
When I was a little kid, me and my family watched about four flying saucers, relatively close up, above the tree line, for about five minutes. They were not pictures. They hovered like helicopters, although at the time I did not know a helicopter existed.
I remember my dad finally telling us to go inside and not ever talk about what we had seen.
There is a science fiction story where somebody asked if anyone had ever created a joke. Once humans realized they had never done so, jokes stopped being funny. The aliens stopped using them to analyze humans.
Maybe science and science fiction were instilled in humans by aliens. Perhaps as a test, perhaps to speed our development. It’s easier to “invent” a warp drive or locate wormhole if one knows what they are looking for.
Only children and damn fools believe in ETs
Correct
There is nothing to do the visiting.
