Life on another planet? Ever gaze up in the stars and wonder if anyone is looking back at you, or see something that you believe is other worldly and struggle between telling people about it because of how weird and impossible it sounds and seems? Every time some one mentions other worldly being or entity, some dismiss it as science fiction and other listen in and give their experience and admire in shock an awe. The existence of aliens has been observed by popular publications like Time, The Washington post, Forbes, and NBC News. They have covered an extensive background on the subject using statistics about people’s opinions, personal experience, and scientific facts. They have even gone far enough to include a presentation to show a visual model of expected life in the next ten to twenty years. There is a broad explanation of the possibilities of life being on other planets in these sources. They also talk about how out of all those possibilities there is bound to be one or two other forms of intelligent life. So weather you believe in aliens or not, or undecided, this article could sway your opinion. Times thought it was important to cover the thought of the existence of aliens.

    At the very beginning when I chose upon using this question for my research project, I was unaware that there was a massive series dedicated to making connections and providing convincing enough opinions, backed by convincing enough information of relations between extra-terrestrials and humans. This has now become my main source of information because there are slightly more than 100 episodes with each one discussing different topics in good detail…

    The talk of aliens started in the 1980 involving the Area 51 military base. A man said he had worked with Nellie as a physicist and has said they were studying crashed saucers. This sparked a lot of controversy and frightened people. The conspiracies behind Area 51 can be backed up, well at least some of them but a lot of them debunked. Conspiracies behind Area are questionable and some are true and a lot are debunked. Yet we still have a lot to figure out about this mysterious military base. This military base is amazing and mysterious and will forever be mystery. Though there may be no Alien or some super technology but still an amazing secretive…

    Imagine, one afternoon you are in your backyard enjoying the sun when suddenly you look up at the sky and there is a huge disk-like shaped object floating above your whole town. For centuries, scientists, ecologists, politicians, and common people around the world have discussed the subject of the unidentified flying objects (UFO). It seems paradoxical, but the main question of their discussion concerns existence or non-existence of the UFO itself. The most popular and appealing notion about the UFO is the extraterrestrial hypothesis. The hypothesis implies that there are intelligent beings from other planets visiting Earth, aliens.

    Introduction: Extraterrestrial Organisms (ETs) exist throughout the universe, and have visited Earth in the past in order to study humans. There are billions of galaxies in the universe, billions of solar systems in each galaxy, and multiple planets in each solar system, yet the majority of people believe that Earth is the only inhabitable planet in the universe. Although it may seem absurd, and to some even frightening, to believe that there are other planets with life on them, recent research shows that there may indeed be life in planets other than Earth, and recent data even goes further to show that ETs even conduct research on humans and generally have 5 kinds of contact. In order to prove that the existence of ETs, researchers conduct surveys of people that have been abducted (4th kind) in order to determine the similarities between their experiences. Also recent research shows that life on Earth may have actually originated from Mars, thus showing that humans may be ETs. Despite the recent evidence, people still ask why, if ETs actually do exits, don’t they show themselves? This may be attributed to a strategy or plan of the ETs.…

    Aliens are extraterrestrial beings that are rumoured to have visited earth hundreds of times. The existence of these creatures has been contemplated since 329 BC and many believe they are either from another planet, humans from the future, or they have travelled from another dimension. Since then, there have been abductions and UFO sightings across the globe. Aliens are most often described as grey and thin with a large head. Eyewitnesses also say they have a small mouth and nose with large, oval-shaped black eyes. From 1994 to 2011, the top three states with the most alien sightings were California, Washington, and Texas. The majority of UFOs are described as either white or multicolored and shaped like disks.
