Then there's the case of Earth's two quasi-moons.
Are We Alone?

I just realized that I'm all out of bubblegum.?
The evidence is all around us. Once it is acknowledged, I doubt we will have little problem seeing it.
In an infinite universe it's hard to believe that some form of life doesn't exist elsewhere. Don't know if some alien lifeform has landed here but I must admit I have seen videos of Little Richard.
Other intelligent life within just the visible universe is extremely likely, never mind within the entirety of the universe. Nearly a certainty no matter how you like to slice your statistics.
Have they been here? Extraordinarily unlikely. Probably a good thing if we never meet. The odds that they’re “friendly” aren’t good. Survival of a species doesn’t hinge on “niceness”. Think Ghengis Khan with advanced technology.

There is evidence to suggest that the human mind can not correctly process information that is not within the context of previously processed information. For instance, when the human mind sees or hears sensory information that is so disconnected to previous experiences, it processes the information in a manner that is congruent with past information - and therefore sensory data for which we have no prior reference point is referenced in a manner that is presents itself as something we are more familiar. Once this data is clarified by either an outside source or additional contact, our minds are able to more clearly process the new data more accurately and free of misleading prior reference points.
This is a very real phenomena. It is why we possibly see reports of aliens and spacecraft presented in a way that is consistent with what we see in the movies or legends. It is possible that the craft and the aliens are nothing like the reports but until it is made very clear just what we are interacting with, the human mind will present this "alien" information in a way that is false to reality but congruent with our current understanding of the universe.
Watch THEY LIVE by John Carpenter it explains everything.
I would guess that the worldviews held by the membership here are at least as varied as the tobaccos we prefer and the pipes we like to smoke them in.
If by extraterrestrial you mean of an origin outside the earth, then yes; however, those entities may exist differently than the way we perceive life. And the idea of aliens, as they are currently presented, may be an elaborate ruse. History, including its accounts of pre-history, is replete with tales of entities presenting themselves to mankind, they are generally referred to as gods.
As for the technology shared, depending upon one's point of view, the earth would be better off if it were limited to growing Syrian Latakia in less volatile regions.
Of course they’re real.
Wasn’t Paul was a documentary film?

Interesting…and looks like several interesting reads attached to the author. Been looking for a good book that perhaps smudges some lines.
Pehaps Christopher Knight is the inspiration of Robert Langdon? ?
Remarkable parallels seem to exist between the person and character. It could also be said that the style of books Knight and Brown write share eerily similar styles being conspiracy based thrillers using facts blended with fiction. ?.
