    Quoted from Darcy:

    Most likely. The odds that we are alone in the universe is low. The problem arises with governments, do they let everyone else in the world know. If aliens landed on Earth like on the White House lawn would the worlds economy crash? Would it effect any current hostilities? An example is Ronald Regan stating at the U.N. (to paraphrase) "If outside the world forces arrived at, or confronted Earth, surely all nations should act together as one" He didn't state "Aliens".
    American Officials never deny, or admit, to Aliens in the USA. A Russian Official says that there is a book with info on all Aliens in Russia. A Canadian Official has stated there are aliens here in North America.
    Some people say that there are alien space stations on the dark side of the moon. NASA was told by them not to return there after the last Apollo Missions in the early 1970's.

    please. the US government can't cover up a blowjob, let alone aliens visiting Earth.

    the governments you mention are made up of lots and lots and lots of people, not all of them smart. some of them are crackpots. some of them believe in all kinds of silly things. many of them are incompetent. if proof existed ... we would know about it. trust me, i work with these people every day. they are no monolith.

    Aliens telling us to GTFO is not the reason NASA never returned to the moon. It was simple politics (the only reason we went there in the first place). The panic that Sputnik inspired had faded, the cold war was cooling off with the SALT talks, the public was quite frankly bored with NASA and the moon, and real-world budgetary realities made the Apollo missions seem like a pointless vanity project -- one we couldn't afford in the midst of Vietnam, the Oil crisis, and runaway inflation. I know it's not as exciting as "ALIENS DID IT!", but it's the banal truth.

    Quoted from o-din:

    From my understanding our ancestors were aliens and Earth was the designated dump and landfill that they left us here to mind.

    the New Jersey of the Cosmos, huh?

    Quoted from Wickerman2:

    Milky way galaxy alone has approx 100 BILLION planets...the observable Universe has approx 100 Billion GALAXIES...to think there is nothing out there but us is lunacy.
    Those same numbers show how horribly unlikely it is that any "Alien" would happen across our little blue marble.
    So, yes, Aliens are real, and no, they have not come here.

    people talk a lot about the unimaginably vast distances involved, and how that reduces the probability of interaction with alien species to near-zero, but the other factor that is just as insurmountable is *time*. the universe is 14 billion years old. human civilization, even including its most primitive forms, have been around for 0.000000035 percent of that time.

    so if the universe were a human being, we would would have existed for less than a second of its lifespan. how many seconds of the universe's life will we last? who knows. we have no way of knowing how long intelligent civilizations last. But even if they last hundreds of thousands of years, that still puts the odds of one intelligent species' existence overlapping time-wise with another's at near zero, and that's even before you begin considering physical distance -- just temporal distance.

    even if life is relatively common given certain conditions (and i think it is), the chances of anyone even having the opportunity to notice us are nearly nil.

    Quoted from Darcy:

    100%.
    Space Travel is a serious barrier. If Aliens can "Time Travel" or fly faster than the speed of light, Why would they come here? Water, Gold, or Titanium? Or just to observe a new species, on an isolated planet? We would become their pets.

    i don't think there's any element or compound unique to Earth that you couldn't find just as easily on a thousand thousand uninhabited planets (including water). the only thing we have that could possibly set us apart as unique is the life that lives here.
