It should be pointed out that McKinnon has been diagnosed with Asperger's as well as clinical depression.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_McKinnon

He makes many claims and provides no evidence to back it up. Just my opinion, but not the most credible person on the planet.
Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

Yeah, he may have been smart about hacking, but he wasn't very intelligent when it comes to digital photography:

McKinnon says his goal was to find evidence that the American government had obtained extraterrestrial technology that it was withholding from the general public.

"I knew that governments suppressed antigravity, UFO-related technologies, free energy or what they call zero-point energy," McKinnon told Wired in 2006. "This should not be kept hidden from the public when pensioners can't pay their fuel bills."

And he claims he found the evidence he was looking for. For example, he alleges that NASA "regularly airbrushed out images of UFOs from the high-resolution satellite imaging," but that he found copies of the original, non-airbrushed photos on NASA's servers.

Unfortunately, he says, the original photos were hundreds of megabytes, too large to download over his dial-up modem connection. But he was able to gain "remote control of their desktop, and by adjusting it to 4-bit color and low screen resolution, I was able to briefly see one of these pictures. It was a silvery, cigar-shaped object with geodesic spheres on either side." But he says his access was discovered and cut off before he had time to save copies of the images.


Anyone who look at a photo in 4-bit color and low resolution is going to find all sorts of artifacts due to the conversion and data loss.

It also sounds like the aliens drive a shake-weight. Yeah.... this is why hard evidence is more important than stories passed around.

Strange UFO orb over Tweed Heads Australia


I seen my first true UFO about a week short of a year ago. what I seen couldn't have been man made in no way shape or form. I'm still shook over it That's no joking. Many other people seen it too.

If it can't be explained then it is a UFO and just that, "An unidentifiable object
seen in the air".

Then you have to ask the question of course why science can't explain it. I know there's a lot of things in the Universe that can't be explained but on earth I'm not so sure of.

Usually, the problem is not of "unexplained" but more of a lack of good or useful information to allow anything to be explainable in the first place.

Ever wondered why all the "Great Mysteries" are of things not seen or at best seen by unreliable witness or from 'something' in a fuzzy photograph that is too fuzzy to see anything for sure...


You are very welcome to dream all manner of images in the face of the moon. Some authors make lots of money out of such mysteries tomfoolery...

Of all possible explanations, interstellar Aliens must be a long long way down the list. Why on Earth would they bother us over many light years of space and time to not be explained?...

Still I believe some things remain unexplainable, even if we have some useful information on it, like the 11 dimensions in the Universe. Stephen Hawking made a great effort trying to expain them but they remain unexplainable.Another example are the black holes...

ML', bother us and know that they have been seen too but choose to continue not to
communicate with us just does not add up.....as you say, "Alien theory must be a
long way down on the list".

like the 11 dimensions in the Universe

Julie. the 11 dimensions allow scientist to explain, come to terms, with the
strange goings-on in particle quantum physics. They can only experiment under
the restrictive conditions set by our three dimensional world. Yet what they do
discover leads them, at times, to calculate that certain findings to make any
sense could only occur if there were many more dimensions. The splitting of the
photon leads many scientists to believe in the multiple dimension theorem.
Split a photon in half, one polarised vertical the other horizontal, isolate
them from one another by distance. Switch the vertically polarised photon over
to horizontal polarity and you find the previously horizontal polarised photon
immediately switches over to vertical polarity. How can this occur since in our
three dimensional world the two half photons are not connected for they were
split. They must still be connected in some way...via another but unseen
dimension for how else could each half photon know what the other half is doing
in supposed isolation.

Yes, but how about the Akasha Field?

http://www.resurgence.org/magazine/article2914-the-akashic-experience.html

"The universe creates intelligence, formed the moment you distort any part of
space". Something understood by physicist for many years now. Hence bings in the
concept of string theory and multiple dimensions that are wrapped up tightly
hence behaving like strings. You can split a photon but you don't split it's
string. This string is a extra-dimensional chord that stays attached to each
half of the photon and being a dimension has no limit on it's possible length.
This chord can stretch from one end of the universe to the other, as experienced
in our three dimensional world. But in a multi-dimensional world the photon may
appear not to have been totally split at all, why? because only in a three dimensional
world, can you create particles, photons and the like, in a multi-dimensional
sub-world all that's here are the strings that make up these particles, photons etc.
Hence providing when splitting the photon you have not cut all of it's strings too then
in the sub-world the two halves seem still connected. No wonder it takes so
much energy to split particles apart for you need to cut these strings.

All we see in our three dimensional world is the products of what is going on
in our sub-multidimensional world. A world where distance has no meaning for
it does not exist. If aliens were to exist then how would they be able to
effectively communicate with their home base millions of light years away
without suffering from any time delay? I think the answer here can be found in
the two half photons experiment?

I do think aliens with a highly advanced technology (and they do exist, I think) could have found the means already to deal with this problem. There could also be laws of fyzix in the Universe that aren't discovered yet by us. We may be smart but surely there are certain laws of which we don't have a clue yet!

Yes I agree there must be certain laws, but laws that are only applicable to the
very small scale of quantum physics but don't apply to the larger scale. Newtons
laws come to mind here, found to work well on the large scale but fail on the
smaller scale...as Einstein discoveries proved.

Regarding aliens, I'd wont to see concrete evidence before I was to believe in
them...but it would be nice to know that there is someone else out there in
our universe. Hieroglyphs, I came across an interesting item regarding the
aircraft and such seen depicted on Egyptian tombs etc. What appears to be
images of aircraft and helicopters are in actual fact the amalgamation of
several standard hieroglyphs joined together. They did this to show a father
and son when the son became a Pharaoh. King Seti Ist was the son of king
Ramesses IInd and if you put the Ramesses hieroglyph on top of the Seti
hieroglyph, so meaning Seti son of Ramesses, they form the image of
what looks like an aeroplane.

So that means when Seti finds a radio signal of alien origin, you will believe in them;)

It just can't be we're all alone in the universe. I even find it arrogant to think that way.

Certainly a very good reason then to believe in them.

We're not all alone Julie for we all have each other here on Earth...cuddles all
round. Understandably though yes it would be hard to believe were all alone
in this massive universe of ours. But there are scientists who believe we might
well be though. I for one though would be extremely surprised if there was
no other form of life supporting plant or planets in the universe.
