Are We Alone: Alien Encounters

Adey - LOL! Good one. TFS!

on Thursday, April 23, 2009 has already proved that Aliens had visited Doha, how could you forget:

Doha media's finest moment.

NP - I'm behind them coz they are there.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I know there are aliens out therer and that they are coming soon.

BlueBull why are you so much behind them ?

Aliens exist.

KR - Faith moves mountains nowadays.Or so people think.

BB, I fail to understand the level of reasoning in people who have travelled hundreds of miles to take a dip in the ganges thinking they would be washed off their sins!!!

And if they fell sick and died due to any infection from this water, others would think the sins were far too much to be washed.

KR - You are absolutely correct. We have divisions amongst uss due to our beliefs and this might appear unthinkable in 100 years from now.

Things we keep on believing and doing in the name of culture and faith show that we are still primitive primates..

Human beings, in the name of culture, waste a lot of their time and energy...well, as long as they feel happy about it and don't harm the society, I have nothing to say except that I feel these are primitive practices.

Not Eric, but the History Channel :o)

Food for thought though ..

I hired an alien today to work in Operations.

German scientists built scale models and proved that they could fly like airplanes - not birds.

Also,some Sanskrit stories allude to mythical flying machines called “Vimanas”. I'm sure some QLers could shed light on those ..

What about the Sakkara Bird ?

Proves that Aliens visited the earth :o)

We are primitive and backward as compared to some of the advanced civilizations we might come across in the future.

we're all living in the same planet and somehow we call fellow humans as primitive and backwards!

what gives?

We are primitive as compared to even the most backward civilizations.

My favourite was the Silver Surfer. Didn't need a weapon. Just travelled the Universe and came to Earth to help fight evil.

I like Thor, he had a hammer.

What about Jupiter who ruled with an Iron fist and the wise Minerva, who bestowed wisdom upon us..

Anyway, The Russian PM Medvedev has said that Aliens often visited Russia :O)

Brite - Area 51 technology is being used in space explorations and medicine.

What about the graphic details of abductions and ofcourse the technology gained from Area 51 ?

Crop circles are made by farmers with sticks tied to their legs.

@supeesh I'm sorry but it seems you have been watching a lot of Indiana Jones lately.

Those are not in anyway useful evidence .

We are waiting

i believe that we are not alone in this universe.

there are aliens outside this planets.

and those aliens are 1000 times advanced in all way.

there are lots of things makes me tell this.

if any one interested to know more. then search crop circles and many more. including pyramids.

Aliens are no exception , they must give hard proofed evidence.

What if those aliens are the gods we are referring to? You know like most of us points up there in the sky as we mention god. Aliens in the flying saucer up there in the sky?

To be honest I still think its way complicated than that.

They might be intelligent life but the chances are near to none that they would have the same attributes as us (if they lived in a different planet.)

Therefore we really don't know if they have the same neurological and brain structures as us.

In other words they may not be compassionate or understanding and the individual would be more selfish since the limited resources of their environment. (Hence behavior)

Whatever ,it really triggers ones' out-of-the box imagination.

Prime numbers, relativity, quantum mechanics are the same wherever you are in the universe. Physics would be the one thing we have in common. I'll only constant if you like.

We can use Google translate.

We can barely understand the old tribes in Africa , never mind aliens...

It will be chaos when the aliens show up and say what they have to say.

@QDCLover why would you think they would be having the same Mathematical theories as ours? since both our planets would probably be different ,thus the physical laws would be different.

Aliens who kidnapped me were telepaths. The min-meld was quite painful :O(

We can communicate through maths. It's a common foundation of the universe. Chimps can't count but aliens that traverse space can

Good point. I think we are not able to communicate with chimps coz we aren't paying enough attention.

I mean guys its like Neil deGarasse said:

"Our closest relative are chimps we got nearly the same identical DNA and we still can't communicate, why would you think we can communicate with some form from out space that are completely different?"

Discovery science has many interesting programmes on Aliens and Space exploration these days. Really interesting to watch those.

I got probed, anally - butters from southpark

There are more than 300 Moons in our solar system. The best and the worst climatic events occur in them.

That can be considered a hard evidence if there are witnesses.

An Alien with long fingers carrying out a probe is "hard" evidence to me :O(

HArd evidence is hard to come by.

Bloody Aliens. Do they only abduct good looking Humans ?

I was abducted by aliens and asked "Are you going to probe me?".

It said, "Not tonight, I've got a headache". :O(

461 new potential alien

461 new possible alien... lol FA we are still as far away as we were many centuries ago.

There is zero stuff to put on display for Nasa in spite of trillions spent. Some they spend to make videos for youtube...lol.

FS has shown up... on other thread... all is well... I was getting a little worried!

All this info about Aliens... are being "leaked" from NASA and oh-the-secret Area 51 and freely available on Youtube...

Then NASA and Area 51 must be very naive:

1. to let out the video

2. to let the videos continue with the popularity.

And here I tried to upload a pirated bollywood song video and it was deleted.

all these videos are studio created stuff...

The link says about the zones which are habitable and that means that life can exist on these planets but yet no aliens were identified.

I believe in aliens and that we are not alone.

Plenty of alien species on QL, why reach for the stars when you can persecute and murder in the name of whatever God you believe in right here on earth! Let's not export our breed of intolerance and violence to the rest of the universe.

NASA's Kepler Space Telescope has detected 461 new potential alien planets, including four worlds slightly larger than Earth that may be capable of supporting life as we know it.

Very good news...Looks like we r getting closer to seeing alien species.

This is yesterday's news from NASA...

Oh BE........

Gravity and Centrifugal/Centripetal Forces.

How is it that the planets orbit the sun in such a manner ?

How is it that they don't leave the system ?

It remains in the realm of science fiction for now but the discovery of a new planet just four light years away will reignite a race to find a twin of planet Earth that may host extraterrestrial life.

The step change comes as the most powerful telescopes ever built are about to enter into service and as ideas about where life could exist are being turned on their head. At the same time, scientific discussion about the possible existence of alien life is becoming more mainstream.

"I think scientists are very happy having a rational conversation about the likelihood of life out there," said Bob Nichol, an astronomer at Portsmouth University in Britain.

Nichol said this was partly driven by the discovery of new planets such as one identified this week in the Alpha Centauri star system, the closest yet outside our solar system.

Over 800 of these so-called exoplanets have been discovered since the early 1990s.

Videos and articles related to Area 51 makes one wonder about the immense possibilities out there.

BB, I have seen that Video as well, It's Fascinating but then again, one can challenge the Authenticity of the Video...

BTW, Area 51 is famous for Green Little Beings working side by side with humans.... ;)

Recently I stumbled upon a Video on Youtube where there is a live interview with an alien on a tape which was stoled by one of the technicians working at Area 51.

What about the Roswell Incident in July 1947? As per the Eye witness accounts, they saw a Flying Saucer crashing into a field in New Mexico.

Why was it after Roswell Incident, USAF Started Investigating UFO Sightings & the Project was Named "Operation Blue Book"...

It shows the importance of the Roswell Incident & the UFO sightings that happened after 1947 till the End of Operation "Blue Book" in 1970....

I Certainly believe, There is Life in Outer Space & NASA Knows about it, but is Hiding the Facts...

Moons like the one depicted in the film Avatar may be among the most common places to find alien life, scientists believe.

Astronomers came to the conclusion after identifying up to 15 new planets orbiting the life-friendly "habitable zones" of stars.

All are giant gaseous worlds similar in size to Jupiter or Neptune.

While such planets would not themselves be suitable for Earth-like life, they could be circled by moons on which there are forests, oceans and living creatures.

Pandora, the fictional moon in Avatar, is just such a world.

I wish I could be teleported to Mars atleast if not the other earth.

FS is blisteringbar

Who is FS ?

So far... FS has not shown up on this thread... lol

Nice logic thelo but it all happen in movies. In real life travelling to space that way will take years to just get a clue.

We need to build stargates, they seem to work on TV....

zombieeee! O_o

sorry, i just cant help it. i was watching walking dead re-runs when i saw blosted's comment of needing more brains. lol

in ancient (earth) times, some people were afraid of travelling coz they dont know what is out beyond their villages. but some tribes eventually went out into the world and populated earth because of some needs like food. or their curiosity was greater that their fear of the beyond.

well, back then the means for travel was very simple. get a goat skin as water pack, pick some berries and youre off!

now, we are starting the need to go out there because of increasing population, global warming (w/c may end the world) we dont have much food and resources are dwindling at rapid rates.

we have been curious of the stars since the beginning of time (ironically ancient people were afraid of crossing the seas or great lands and forests but have always dreamt of going to the stars). we are so curious of the space beyond that we even named a toy after it and sent it to a big orange rock named after a chocolate bar! yes it is named after a chocolate bar!

we have the means to go out there but only on a limited scale since we earth people are utilizing our intellects and very limited earth resources into killing fellow earth people.

wen advanced alien civilizations eventually came to our space/our reality, before they either kill us, enslave us or help us, will earth people's racism bigotry prejudice end?

Brite - Space mass time continum? I ahve no idea but Space folding, sure. It essentially amounts to time folding, and time is as real a dimension as length, width, and heighth. As a three-dimensional being, you are able to verify it through a simple thought experiment.

Imagine yourself anywhere on Earth, and begin walking in a continuous straight line. Although you will never turn around, you will eventually wind up in a place that is one step before your starting point. The third dimension was folded back upon itself to make a sphere, and you could have arrived at the same ending point by stepping in the other direction with one simple step.

The fourth dimension should be equally malleable.

Well it was impossible that computers would be so small and so efficient in this very short period.

But who knows.

But due to the low rates of students engaging in scientific studies in higher education, well we do need more brains.

This is a brief introduction to the string theory by

@Britexpat

Dr.Michio Kaku:

What about folding space ?

Blosted - I would say it's impossible to achieve speed of light due to the MASS in all matter.

We can do that ,by building a powerful spaceship that could go at the speed of light.

Which is quiet difficult to achieve.

I meant space travel involving very very very high astronomical distances almost approaching infite going by our current capabilities.

What do you mean by infinite space travel?

I think wormholes hold the answer to infinite space travel if only we find one.

" seeing unidentified flying objects."

That didn't sound smart.

Irrespective of the contact,it will be great to know that we are not alone.

why you always say I know more than you?

If it makes you then no problem,

The people who maintain their thinking in one field only are not capable to capture and live with others who have different culture.

TheLonius what experiments or evidence are there which states that there are no aliens or life on other planets.

Give me one experiment which is done and the results show that there no aliens or aliens?

Actually I wasn't suggesting life existing at the beggining of the universe, just the fact that physics as we know it now did not exist. Hence my reasoning that maybe we can manipulate our enviroment to allow transport over long distances that classical physics does not allow.

Or we could pray to God and ask him.

Not quite true Thelonius, at the formation of the universe the laws of physics are not as we experience them now. Therefore there is precedent to manipulating them. As humankind stands now that would be impossible but I would be a fool think that in the future we could find a way to travel such large distances in human lifetime terms.

It is possible a civilisation more advanced than us, (with the universe being 12 billion years old) someone with a 2 million year head start may have developed travel faster than the speed of light to allow them to cover such large distances. Just because we may not understand it at the moment, does not mean it is impossible.

you are ofcourse forgetting about utilizing wormholes or the infinity probability drive which allows coverage of vast distances in short time frames..

we are alone?

Do not say so because you will change your mind when you see it.

What do you call this situation when you are in an empty place in the desert at night and suddenly you hear the sound of animals running and it is close to you and you try to see and you do not see but you still hear the sound?

Civilizations may have occured a few million years earlier or would start another few million years hence on some planet in this or some other galaxy. So, its the distance and time which increases our uncertainty in finding another form of life.

Time will tell.

She is doing great! Thanks for asking ;)

Theo - You are absolutely right. DISTANCE seems to be the main issue in identifying alien civilizations.

Tinker - I quit smoking.

lets think on both side that Aliens ar not alive or Alive.

If they are not then its a no issue, But think if they are really there somewhere are we ready to face them ?

Why should they answer the calls of inferior beings ?

By the way, the Triple breasted wh0re of Galambatus IV communicates via a mind empathy

The universe is certainly amazing and the probability of us being is alone is much less likely than there is life elsewhere. Then you get the question what is that life like, is it intelligent or not compared to ourselves.

Best thing to do is not contact anyone as it would probably end very badly for us.

NASA is scanning the space on a continuous basis and no radio signals have been intercepted yet from other planets. There could be many possibilities..

- We missed the radio signals sent by aliens as we started scanning since a few years

- No higher form of life exists anywhere but there may be lower forms of it existing

- No life exists except on earth

- Signals may be on the way..might take many years to come to earth

- Life may have existed earlier and now the planet may have been heated by the nearby star turning a red giant

After all, intercepting radio signals from any other planet or moon in the universe sitting on earth is like scanning the oceans trying to locate your lost ring.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-19008908

is the word "It could be" which means it can be or can not be, and this word has a degree of crtainity absence.

Currently there is no evidence of life on any other planet as yet, isn't it? rest is all speculations. May be, may be not!

I will look up "fossilized bacteria in asteroids" on google, thats something new for me.

It could be Brit. It could be far more advanced than us.

Yasir, water, albeit frozen, has been found on Jupiter's moons, there is evidence that there was once water on Mars, not to mention the discovery of fossilized bacteria in asteroids, and that's just in our solar system. There are billions of other solar systems. So odds are in favour of life in at least one of them.

No probs we will sing a song for them.

You r pumkin pumkin hello honey bunny.

QDCL: And why is that?

It would kill religion overnight.

:D ... good one brit ....

Why you are sooo sure miss mimi?

How can we be so arrogant as to believe that life on other planets may not be supeior in some form to us ?

There is almost certainly life of some kind on other planets. The questions is what kind of life and whether it's advanced life.

We are not alone. I was kidnapped , probed, prodded and discarded in Doha.. :O(
