I don't know about this.... Apollo 14 Astronaut: Space Aliens Are Real An Apollo 14 astronaut told a group of UFOlogists Monday that aliens are not a myth and called on the government to disclose its findings, The Washington Times reported. "It is now time to put away this embargo of truth about the alien presence," Edgar D. Mitchell, who made the longest moonwalk in history, told those attending a conference in Gaithersburg, Md., set up by the Paradigm Research Group. "I call upon our government to open up ... and become a part of this planetary community that is now trying to take our proper role as a spacefaring civilization," the 79-year-old added. "We are being visited." Paradigm Research Group founder Stephen Bassett backed Mitchell's theory and demanded that President Obama's administration release all information concerning extraterrestrial beings. "If it does not disclose, by the end of May — this is not a threat or anything, you don't threaten the United States government, they're heavily armed ... the PRG has an enormous and substantial network, and quite a bit of documentary evidence connected to this, particularly politically ... and we are going to be extensively putting that out to the http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,517421,00.html# - , and we're just going to make it as difficult on them as possible," Bassett told the newspaper. -------------

There was a second article regarding this. The astronaut is actually from Roswell, and although he wasn't there in 1948, certain residents who were there have entrusted him with their secret because he is one of them. -------------

I didn't know astronauts had the capacity to lie like this. The improbability of: 1) finding a planet suitable for any form of life 2) finding a planet suitable for intelligent life 3) finding a planet with intelligent life capable of faster than light travel 4) that intelligent life finding us and coming here 5) that intelligent life coming in the 20th century and not in the 4000 years or so since we developed a written language and could have documented these things 6) our hilariously inept governments keeping it secret for 40 years ...Leads us to conclude that anyone giving not a sh*tload of believable evidence is: 1) Lying 2) Delusional 3) Correct and without evidence. To bad for that guy. And that's the end of that story. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

all progressive rock has been written by Aliens. Little known fact: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Bond - Graham Bond went into his backyard one day, and behold, There was a flying saucer smashed into his lawn! A part of the ship had fallen off, and lay steaming on the ground. Little did he know at that point, that the navigation system which he had found could create the most beautiful sounds to man. The aliens poured out of their ship soon after. The first words they spoke, were "Mewlotrawn" (which was the platen the came from). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Bond - Graham Bond decided later to name his newly found instrument after their planet.. but he misspelled it "mellotron".

Well man has never stepped foot on the moon (allegedly and in my opinion). Other lifeforms from other planets therefore have likely not been on our planet (they may not step, they may not have legs) That does not mean I do not believe there is life on other planets. I believe there well could be. Are they advanced? Who knows. I do not believe they have ever visited Earth though. -------------

Hasn't anyone heard the news about the newly discovered planet about 20 light years away that appears to have water and about 1.9 percent the size of Earth? Anyways this shows that extraterrestrial life is completely possible (and in my opinion very likely). Though any other life in the universe is so far away that none of us nor our great(x100) grandchildren will ever hear about anything. Also, keep in mind that the way life forms on other planets could be formed in an entirely different way than life on Earth, so maybe there's a way that life could form without similar conditions around 4.5 billion years ago (such as amount of water, electricity in the air, pH of water at the time, chemical makeup of atmosphere, temperature, light conditions). Anyways, just stating an opinion.-------------

Gordan Freeman is getting a bit old himself, what with the whole Black Mesa incident knocking some years off of his life, and all.

You do realize that the flag only waved whenever the Astronauts positioned it, right? It was perfectly still the entire time they had their hands off of it. Not mention we send and receive daily signals to and from the moon's surface from reflectors that the astronauts placed there. Pretty elaborate cover-up, huh?
I swear, sometimes I worry about how much actual research makes up our knowledge of what we think we know, and how much of it is just stuff we've heard others say and taken as fact without doing our own homework.
Personally, I don't see the harm in at least giving these guys the benefit of the doubt, and then when the end of May comes and nothing has been released, that's when we can point and laugh. I know I'll certainly enjoy it.
 But until then, let's just wait and see. I can't wait to read all the information that won't be released in a few months.

Even then you have the problem of time. Planets don't form and evolve simultaneously. Our own planet is billions of years old. Assuming that other planets with intelligent live formed at different times and evolved differently, even if there were a lot of them in our galaxy it's still extremely unlikely that one of them would develop space travel at one small period of time and then find and visit our world also in that very small period of time when there's intelligent life (ok, the amount of intelligence is open for debate  ).So, while I agree with your statement I think that it doesn't matter ... we're on our own. ------------- https://tagyourmusic.org/users/Mike" rel="nofollow - https://tagyourmusic.org/users/Mike |

Good point. Not all planetary systems are at the same age as ours. Not all planets in our solar system are at the same stage. For instance, given the topography of Mars, it appears to have at one time had a atmosphere. It's surface has many locations which appear like our rivers and tributaries. -------------

Until the martian mothership lands in my back yard and a landing party of little green men descend armed with ray guns and say, "take me to your leader" then there are no aliens. Why do these martian spaceships always show up on some guy`s farm in Alabama at 2:00 in the morning when no one else is around?

This isn't anything new in case you've been into UFOlogy for years like I have. He's been vocal about his belief in extraterrestrial life and the cover-ups for years.

| The last time I saw an alien they didn't have any spaceships. They used their superior mental abilities to teleport themselves around. Some of them could do it interdimensionally, but it took them centuries of training. |
