UFOs: finally we can accept them as myth and hoax?
 
Throughout my life UFOs and flying saucers, aliens etc were suspected and reported, with blurry pictures shoring up as evidence. But of course, as the times change and everyone carries a camcorder now and seemingly every single event in life is recorded these days, no good footage of UFOs. So I guess we can retire this type of thing, we are alone in the universe.

Our Skies Are More Watched Than Ever, So Why Are Reported UFO Sightings on the Decline?

Quote:

This is a curious trend, given that almost every other aspect of our world is better documented than ever before. More people are carrying cameras on them and more people have access to the internet and can therefore share their strange observations. Meteoric fireballs, for instance, are extensively documented these days, captured on dashboard, security, and phone cameras. So why not UFOS?

Flesh and blood can not live in a ufo and go that fast too ... Maybe they are smarter now that we are too ... Invisible is still there for those that believe.

They're stealth technology is now obviously far more advanced than in previous decades.

:har: Love that response Jim!! :har:

its obvious, its either as Jim says due to their advances in stealth technology. Or it could be just the opposite. Dramatically reducing the number of visitations because of increased surveillence of the skies.

If radar can go right through a fiberglass sailboat what can it do to a ufo?

Just who did you think came up with the idea for drones? :up: Is that drone hovering over your naked girlfriend in the pool an alien or the pervert from down the street? :D

Proven fact is that UFO/Alien movies sell more pop corn than Cowboys and Indians movies :yep:

Good point, the only film I went to see this year so far was the 40th Anniversary of ALIEN. First time I watched this gem on the big screen it was great. :)

I treat Aliens with the same agnostic indifference as gods and ghosts, i don't see the purpose of either 'beliving' or 'disbelieving in what cannot be proven either way.
I will say though, given the rate a which planets face extinction level catastrophes like meteorites and stuff. We are very lucky to still be here and alien race more advanced than us would be even luckier.

That's why.

Problem is, these things heat up very intensely, and they are used a lot. Thats where global warming is coming from.

The surest sign of intelligent live out there is that they have not bothered to visit us. :up:




Since it is impossible to prove non-existence, especially in the context of non-earth things, We may never know.


All I know is that I have not seen an alien space craft....yet. :D


I have also never personally seen a Black Swan for that matter.

This is an issue which has always fascinated me and I have looked into it a lot.

At this point, only two things are certain:

1. There is certainly intelligent life out there. According to one estimate I saw, there could be as many as 100,000 inhabited planets in our universe; and

2. There is no proof any of them have ever visited the earth.

There is nothing certain in any of the two points. ;) Its just guessing and speculation not based on hints or facts.

Reports of flaming chariots being seen are in the Old Testament of the Holy Bible ... Specially when Elijah was seen leaving in one by his replacement Elisha.
