    Everyone knows God put all his creation on this planet.
    What about the other Gods? Maybe they each have their own planet!

    Looks like we don't even need research or scientists, we got some random guys on a basketball forum that has figured it out.

    Pack it up MIT and NASA!
    No I don't. I am only pointing out things that could apply and how little we really know.

    You keep using that word but I don't think you know what it means.
    That's just it; I know exactly what it means.

    It's got a few closely connected yet slightly different meanings. It's being used here to describe a person or thing whose existence is fictional or unproven.

    It's the "or unproven" that makes it a myth. It's actually an assumption that they are alien. There's no evidence that anyone here has available to them that suggests aliens exist or that any alien spacecraft ever existed or visited this planet. Confirmation bias causes you to call anything you don't understand "alien" or "magic".

    I have a feeling that anyone who could travel that fast would solve such issues.
    Mass cannot travel at the speed of light.

    Any intelligent source would have figured it out beforehand, by necessity, before being able to get reasonably close.
    It's probably smooth sailing once we travel past the heliopause. For all we know, the physics as we understand them that limit relativity of light speed travel may change also.
    Unicorns may appear for all we know.
    That's just a guess that has no basis in experience. Space probably changes substantially when you go outside the heliosphere. Distance might have no meaning.
    Why keep supposing these fantastic things? Stick with what we know. We cannot even discuss science fiction realistically.
    Speculation. We really don't know until we advance farther. there may be ways of using less energy than relativistic formulas tell us.
    I wouldn't hold my breath on that. Conservation laws have been pretty solid.
    One thing is certain. We don't really know.

    I am in agreement that we likely have not been visited. However, not for the same reasons. I believe it is real likely that life exists elsewhere. However, they probably have as hard of a time finding us in the billions of uninhabited worlds in Goldilocks zones, as we would. Like finding a needle in a haystack.
    I don't hold the position that we likely have or have not been visited. I would not be surprised either way. I hold the position that we don't know it so there's no reason to assume it's happened. Doing so is akin to creating another deity. Occam's razor and all that.

    Like any government funded program, no results no money. Might as well be tracking ghosts.

    It was a cute little idea for a while, but why drop billions on this hocus pocus (that's what it is)? Any "life" that's been claimed to exist on other planets has invariably turned out to be nothing.

    I don't necessarily believe there is life out there but theories taking into account probabilities to say that it is a near mathematical certainty that life will develop else where is not a myth. Those are theories. Big difference.

    They have yet to find a cure for Cancer should they pack that in also?

    I find it very hard to believe that life doesn't exist elsewhere in the Universe. God likes to experiment too I would think.

    ^ post of the week!


    I think the real motivation for Science to find life on another planet is to make sure they are taught Evolution before they visit us. No one wants to rewrite all those text books in school.

    You're moving goalposts again.

    UFO = alien: myth

    Whether or not alien life actually exists, there's no evidence it's visited this planet. Let's not get off of another path.

    How would alien life rule out the Theory of Evolution?

    It's why religion exists. People have a hard time believing they are alone. It sucks, but there's much more evidence to support 0 god and 0 alien than 1 god or 1 alien.

    There is evidence, just not conclusive evidence.

    Don't we have radar? Why do all the planes keep crashing? Isn't anyone using that radar?

    Me: No reason to launch food into space

    You: Then we might as well stop sending food to starving nations

    Evidence of what?

    Evidence proves or disproves something. A clue isn't the same as evidence.

    there most likely is life elsewhere, but i see aliens as a copout for people who are unable to fathom the capabilities of humans.

    There is NO proof that God does not exist as it is impossible to disprove.
    Here we go again. The evidence is just opinion at best.

    if we were a dying civilization because our home planet was going to be decimated by some sort of natural catastrophe we could do nothing about, for instance, a black hole, and I had advanced technology... I would seed other hospitable planets with (human) life using probes to guarantee my species will continue to survive infinitely....
