Do We Have Proof of Alien Life?
Have we found proof of alien life or at least a reason to suspect it exists? When we think of alien life most scientists think of microbes and most of the rest of us think of beings which may or may not look like us. We suspect they would have two legs, two arms and one head, but actually we have no reason to believe this is true yet. It could turn out if aliens exist they may be completely different than anything we can relate to or be what we might think of as grotesque. For all we know other beings could be more like an octopus with legs than a human being. As a matter of fact, some scientists think octopi may be alien to this planet and for an animal they are very intelligent, but they certainly are not smart enough to be called intelligent beings.
There is at least one scientist who believes we have already found life and it was on Mars. An article appeared in Scientific American magazine and it reported the scientist who conducted a search for life using the Viking mission in 1976 claims he found life. He said his experiment got four positive results for life in tests. He was looking for microscopic life. He said the results he got from the Martian soil were similar to those he got from soil on earth. Why weren’t we told this? I can only give you a theory I have which states we have had at least one base on Mars but we want Mars to look uninhabitable which helps to protect the prospect of the United States having bases there. This theory will be immediately written off as a conspiracy theory, but sometimes these theories turn out to be correct. There just seems to be too many little clues on Mars which indicate there was an ancient civilization already there and photos of what look like small animals.
We have found several exoplanets which might support life and since we know how hardy life is, there could be planets we are writing off as being uninhabitable which could be teeming with life. When we look at the direction the human race is going it seems to indicate there could be machine life somewhere. Almost all the engineers and scientists who deal with artificial intelligence think there will be sentient machine life in our future. What would be the best way to deal with this type of life? Would we use our artificial intelligence to communicate with them?
One of the strange things about us is we have very limited vision. We can only see a small fraction of the waves out there which means an alien could be standing right next to us and we might not know it. While our eyes are incredible, they are far less powerful than even the eyes of some of the animals on this planet. The problem is everything we can see has a threshold which we cannot see below or above. We usually cannot see in the ultraviolet, but there are a few people who can. These are people with a condition called aphakia. Our visible spectrum is only a very small part of the entire spectrum. Because of this handicap we need devices to assist us.
Because our vision is so handicapped, we could have missed seeing what was really out there. Take for example a satellite which puts out a wavelength of light we cannot detect or even a planet or star which might exist in some form we cannot see. How would we ever know it was there? Could the opposite also be true, could we be invisible to some other races which might exist? This is a possibility.
When plankton was found on the windows of the International Space Station most scientists assumed it had made its way up from the earth, but one scientist said this was impossible, which would have meant it came from outer space and was possibly carried on an asteroid or meteor. This would mean plankton is alien and possibly would exist in many places in our solar system and possibly throughout the galaxy.
There are quite a few people who have testified they have actually seen alien beings and they saw them working with our scientists. One rocket engineer has stated he was taken below one of our bases and was shocked when he walked past a doorway. Inside that room he said he saw a Grey alien working with humans on some project. Who could forget the man who was very famous in UFO circles named Phil Schneider who had lost part of his hand in a battle which took place with Grey aliens in an underground base in Dulce, New Mexico? He claimed he was warned not to talk about it but did anyway and eventually was murdered by being choked to death with a hospital type rubber tube. Before that he has several attempts on his life such as the break lines being cut on his car.
Looking for alien life is considered by some as being a total fraud since they say we have been working with aliens for years and they may have been involved with humans on this planet since we first appeared here. Anyone who has looked at the television show ancient aliens knows the premise of that show is that aliens came here in our dim beginning and were treated as gods. Did we once worship aliens as deities?
If it turns out at some time in the future our search for alien life was just a sham, because the government was keeping it secret, and they had already met with many different races, there are going to be a lot of angry people. The same is true with the space race, if we find out we have much more advanced space vehicles which were secretly being used, and we have spent trillions of dollars to keep up this phony façade to hide that fact, I can’t imagine how the public would react.
Someone asked me the other day if I thought there were other beings in the universe besides us. I believe the way many scientists have come to believe and that is in a place as big as the universe, it would be the height of arrogance to think we were the only inhabitants in it. Will we recognize alien life if we see it? That is another deep question. Perhaps in our future travels to other planets we might be crushing it as we walk around without realizing it, or just killing it with the microbes on our body. We will have to be very careful and I am not sure we can be careful enough.
