More specifically: France became the first country to open its files on UFOs Thursday when the national space agency unveiled a website documenting more than 1,600 sightings spanning five decades.

I think its funny how most UFO sightings started once humans really began to take to the sky. I bet there were no UFO sightings reported in the US on 9/11 when all aircraft were grounded. |

From Wikipedia Sightings of unusual aerial phenomena date back to ancient times, but reports of UFO sightings started becoming more common after the first widely publicized U.S. sighting in 1947. After all these years still no hard evidence. Get us a clipboard from their ship, or a seatbelt. Something. |

Still busy... :( "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible". Hebrews 11.3 |

I bet there were no UFO sightings reported in the US on 9/11 when all aircraft were grounded. Try key words "WTC UFO" in the Google. There are even theories that the UFOs caused the 9/11. No. I do not believe those theories. Of course not! Manned mission to Mars in 2019 Petition <-- Sign this, please. |

That video is cool but fake as heck, IMHO. Oh, I see there's more too it than that video I was thinking of. I'll have a look around. Nothing surprises me anymore, but I'm all conspiracy theoried out. I just look for the tangible to preserve sanity, lol. PS: theoried is not a real word... :D .

I do not deny that people have seen UFOs. But why do we as humans have to jump to such drastic conclusions. They see a light in the sky. It must be aliens! How do we get from seeing a light in the sky to aliens? Seems like a pretty big jump to me. (I'm not accusing anyone here of jumping to such conclusions) In other words, when multiple competing theories are equal in other respects, the principle recommends selecting the theory that introduces the fewest assumptions and postulates the fewest hypothetical entities. It is in this sense that Occam's razor is usually understood. Aliens or ourselves? We have no proof as of yet that there are other intelligences in the universe. If there are they would have to know we exist. And they would need a reason and the technology to come here. On the other hand we know that we have thousands of airplanes and spacecraft. These spacecraft and airplanes either have lights of their own or they reflect light not only in the visible spectrum but also in the infrared. Also UFOs can be easily faked. I could see how it could be a rush to someone to fake a UFO so that on the nightly news they can see all the people who reported seeing a UFO. |

As for UFO's spotted before humans took to the sky, we haven't even come close to understanding everything about the Earth and our solar system. So there is possibly a natural phenomena we haven't discovered yet. |

You sound like a lobbyist Walla. Do you think the millions of people that have reported seeing things are crazy or that NONE of these things are from outer space? That every religion that says their lord comes from heaven and floats in light or lands in chariots of flame and smoke, and rotating wheels are halucinating? When SETI finds a solid signal will you still be negative? Why do you run SETI? Look up and tell us we are definitely alone in this 10 billion light years in radius universe.

I'm not claiming we are alone. I am confident there are others. Thats why I run SETI. We are here. Thats proof that the laws of the universe permit matter to assemble itself into a conscious form. With billions of galaxies and billions of stars per galaxy it would surprise me if we are alone. I am just saying that it is highly unlikely that UFOs are spaceships from other civilizations. I do not think we are being visited. |
