I am new to SETI@home and find the whole idea of alien life fascinating. After looking over the treads on the message boards, the members of this site seem like a pretty intelligent group.What are your opinions on those conspiracy theorists that say that the government has already contacted/ received extra terrestrial visitors? Some very credible witnesses such as Edgar Mitchell, an Apollo 14 astronaut have come forward and said the the United States government has been covering up alien contact for almost 60 years. Why would the government want to cover something like this up? I don't understand the motivation.

If a UOTD thread is acceptable in Science then Alien Contact is acceptable in the Cafe. >:-)

There may be more than one group of aliens trying to contact us.I think one group of aliens has some sort of bat like radar system.This group does not communicate the way we do.I think that this group cannot visualize but is very interested in us.I think this group is seeking us out because more than anything they want to visualize objects and life forms.One of these aliens might abduct a human,not your usual human,but some poor soul born with a brain abnormality.This alien does not understand our social civilization .A abducted person may be tranqulized and forced to visualize and explain why and how some human behavior exisist.The alien will probe into the aflicted persons mind and use the subjects life experiences in a sort of pyschological interigation.

The other group of aliens are time travelers from our future who are very sick.The experimental spaceships they send are a team of scientist looking for a cure that may exisist in this present time but not in theirs.

The other group of aliens are from the anti-world.This my favorite group.Stephen Hawkins wrote this terrible theory of the anti-world that simply is not true.If you are male in this world you are female in the Anti-world,communication is possible,but can cause death.Several subjects died in a experiment to contact the Anti-World,but their heart tried to run backwards and died,these men were not exercised in focusing their mental powers on on keeping their heart regulated.Ever so often some sort of bizzar communication between the two worlds happens,either by accident or with the aid of medications and other unknown elements;

So I looked are area 51 and saw what was going on.Its a exeperiment.Subjects volunteer for a suicide mission to test out new technology.The experiment works though,they just dont know how to keep a human alive .The volunteers always come back deformed,dead and do not live very long.

So whats this weird experiment about?Its about physics and a secret.What are they trying to accomplish?
I dont know,and even if I could figure it or look into them,I know that I could never tell you.Will the experiment ever work? No,it cant work.And I hope they stop doing it.Why because their is no such thing as zero,try to perform a caculation useing zero in-------- .Lets just hope they dont do it.I feel sick I dont want to look any more.I going to forget all about this and go to sleep

You know they invited those Aliens to our planet,but we forgot to tell them that we have no way to take them home.Now they are stuck here and they are very angry.They are very disapointed in our planet and say that the food is awful and the music is boring.
