Here's the thing: the universe is so big and so old the existence of life elsewhere is essentially guaranteed. The chances that similarly advanced life is existing at this current moment (or in tandem with us) is fairly small, and the chances that any of them came to earth in UFOs is virtually non-existent. But life has existed before us, and life will exist after us. There could be a planet somewhere right now with intelligent life, if you think about just how many planets there are (an inconceivably large amount) it'd be irrational to think our planet is THAT special. But even our species' timeline is a miniscule "moment" in the timeline of the universe.

Agreed 100%

Also unrelated but Lawrence Krauss gave this talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZiXC8Yh4T0, "A Universe from Nothing") that I enjoyed a lot, but anyway he's talking about quantum mechanics or some type of quasar or something at some point, and he says "The universe huge, and old, and rare things happen all the time." I think that's the best way to look at the universe. Incredibly rare types of stars, I mean incredibly rare events on the order of 1 out of every million stars will experience it, actually happen a lot, enough that we can pretty much find one event every day if we are looking for it, because the universe is SO BIG, and there are SO MANY stars, that these statistically rare events become commonplace because there's just SO MANY of them. It's incomprehensible how many stars are out there. Even if only 1% of the stars we can see have planets around them, and even if 1% of those planets are or will ever be able to support "life" of any kind, there would be billions and billions of these planets out there. Some of these planets will be dying, some will be just coming to life, and some will be in a state like ours currently is. AAAAAA THE UNIVERSE


btw i made a list of some of the cooler parts of that talk with quotes from it, i can post it when I get home if anyone wants to see the "better parts" of that talk (but the whole thing is good, honestly, if you're into that stuff).

i got an idea: we should be the UFOs. what if WE ARE THE UFOS ALREADY TIME TRAVEL

north korea has best ufo super advance test flights successful

proof

one time i was going to a friends house and i was going to spend the night but when i was walking to his house the alien (ufo) kidnap me and i was on the ship and abducted and they played strange music on a trombone but then i woke up and i was still in my house.
