Alien Contact
Date of Contact: From Prehistoric Times - Today
Location of Contact: Worldwide
Does Alien Contact Exist?: In the view of the Editors the answer is an resounding YES, and has been happening for tens of thousands of years, from Gobekli Tepe, to Puma Punku, to the Dogon people, but this contact is on a very rare and spasmodic basis and may not have happened for centuries. In the view of the Editors the vast majority of so called Alien encounters are simply NOT true How Will mankind today Make Contact With Alien Life?First contact is increasingly likely and it’s now becoming a question of how, not if, we will find Alien Life.In 2004 the crew of a U.S. Navy jet fighter made contact with what some believe was extraterrestrial life. What they actually made contact with, most likely, was some kind of drone. For human civilization, that encounter could change everything, and maybe lead to Unrest and Wars Alien ContactAlien Life (Extraterrestrial Life) is hypothetical life which may occur outside of Earth and which did not originate on Earth. Such life might range from simple life forms to beings from civilizations far more advanced than humanity. Since the mid-20th century, active ongoing research has taken place to look for signs of extraterrestrial life. This encompasses a search for current and historic extraterrestrial life, and a narrower search for extraterrestrial intelligent life. Depending on the category of search, methods range from the analysis of telescope and specimen data to radios used to detect and send communication signals.The concept of extraterrestrial life, and particularly extraterrestrial intelligence, has had a major cultural impact, chiefly in works of science fiction. Over the years, science fiction has introduced a number of theoretical ideas, each having a wide range of possibilities. Many have piqued public interest in the possibilities of extraterrestrial life. Of particular concern is the wisdom of attempting communication with extraterrestrial intelligence. Some encourage aggressive methods to make contact with intelligent extraterrestrial life. Others argue to do so may give away the location of Earth, making an invasion possible in the future. Scientists have for the last 50 years searched for signals, artifacts, biological markers, or other evidence that life exists beyond Earth. Some look for microbial life — proof that evolution is underway on other planets and could produce, or already has produced, intelligent life. Others listen for signals from advanced civilizations.Their search is motivated in part by simple mathematics. Our galaxy alone includes no fewer than four billion planets that are similar to Earth. The common believe is that what we can classify as “life” will be found sooner or later, maybe tomorrow, maybe in 50 years’ time, maybe much farther in the future, or maybe we have already made contact The SETI Institute with its huge radio telescope arrays is in the process of surveying one million stars, listening closely for alien broadcasts. “I would put my bets on SETI,” said Douglas Vakoch, who heads the METI International research organization in San Francisco. METI stands for “Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence.” New methods of space exploration could soon surpass SETI as humanity’s best tool for finding alien life. Using probes and robotic rovers, NASA and other space agencies are just beginning to look underground on Mars and the moon for evidence of microbial life. If there are microbes, then there’s evolution taking place. And we know from our own experience that evolution can lead to intelligent life, whatever that means. Find a few microbes on a few other planets, and the possibilities begin to branch almost endlessly. Our search for microbial life is about to accelerate, in 2021, NASA plans to switch on its new James Webb space telescope. “One of the main uses of the James Webb space telescope will be to study the atmospheres of exoplanets, to search for the building blocks of life elsewhere in the universe,” NASA stated. Meanwhile the European Space Agency is eyeing a 2028 launch date for its Atmospheric Remote-Sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-Survey telescope, which will scan distant planets. Together, NASA’s James Webb and the ESA’s ARIEL amount to a space-scouting effort that exceeds SETI’s own potential, Vakoch said. If we make first contact before 2028, it’ll probably be via radio, Vakoch explained. After 2028, we’re more likely to detect life in the atmosphere of its own home planet. For human civilization, that encounter could change everything. Have we already made Contact? - many believe that we have already made contact with Aliens - some believe that we even have Aliens in captivity at Area 51 or other sites including from Roswell - others state that they have met Aliens - some believe that strange Animal Mutilations are the work of Aliens and associated with UFOs. - others state that Scientists and Military staff working at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, Montana have had problems with UFOs shutting down nuclear missiles from the 1960s – early 2000s. - Whistleblowers claim NASA not only knows about alien visitations but that they are in contact with extraterrestrials. - The Friendship Case from half a century ago where apparently for almost 20 years, a group of extraterrestrials contacted hundreds of people with a number of strange requests. The project was called "Friendship." The people involved were taken on board multiple UFOs and shown alien bases on earth. We at Aliens, UFOs and Us along with an estimated 20% of the population believe that Aliens have been in contact with us for thousands of years and have guided and helped us and continue to do so. The Navy Encounter in 2004 To be clear, Cmdr. David Fravor and Lt. Cmdr. Jim Slaight weren’t looking for little green men that day back in 2004. They were in the cockpit of their F/A-18F fighter flying a routine training mission 100 miles off the Southern California coast. A radar operator on a nearby Navy warship radioed Fravor and Slaight, directing them to investigate a mysterious object that had appeared on the ship’s screens. Sensors showed the unidentified flying object speeding down toward the ocean from a lofty altitude of 80,000 feet, briefly hovering at 20,000 feet then descending to wavetop height. As Fravor and Slaight closed within visual range of the UFO, they were startled by what they saw.It appeared to be an aircraft of some sort. Oval in shape. Around 40 feet long. It hovered over the water, churning up waves and foam. Fravor steered the F/A-18 directly at the object. Abruptly the UFO sped away, Fravor told The New York Times. “It accelerated like nothing I’ve ever seen.” He was, he said, “pretty weirded out.” “I have no idea what I saw. It had no plumes, wings or rotors and outran our F-18s.” Navy pilots on at least two other occasions in recent years had similar run-ins with UFOs. Cockpit videos of the encounters have racked up millions of views on social media. Amid a surge of interest in possible alien visitors, news broke that a trio of powerful U.S. senators for years channeled tens of millions of dollars into a military-run office that investigated UFO sightings. The Navy has declined to speculate on what exactly the objects might be. Many experts think they’re random electronic flare-ups on sensor screens or merely someone’s fancy drones. The military certainly isn’t insinuating they’re alien spacecraft. To avoid taking a firm stance on the subject of flying saucers, the Navy prefers to use the term “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena,” or “UAP,” to describe what everyone else calls “UFOs.” In the 120 years since wireless-pioneer Nikola Tesla first overheard what he thought might be an alien radio transmission, scientists haven’t yet catalogued a signal that is indisputably evidence of extraterrestrial life. Tesla’s signal turned out to be nothing.
