The Day the Earth Stood Still, a remake of the 1951 black and white movie classic of the same title, will be released December 12. I canÂ’t wait to see it.A emissary from the galactic federation is coming to warn Earth about its bad environmental habits. WeÂ’re trashing up the neighborhood and our alien neighbors donÂ’t like it.

The U.S. and other world governments already have detailed secret plans for first contact.When UFOs land, a series of plans created to deal with nuclear emergencies and biological attacks will be activated. Within the scientific community, the question is no longer whether extraterrestrial life exists, but if ET is smart enough to do long division. Scientists are of two minds regarding the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence. Skeptics acknowledge simple life-forms might be found on other planets, but insist that intelligent life is unique to Earth.
