ALIENS ARE EVERYWHERE

Postby The Galactic Liberal Democracy » Sun Jun 16, 2019 7:21 am

Yes, I clickbaited you. Deal with it.

As of writing this, a new MIB has come out. I liked the originals better. It's release is irrelevant actually, but it brings us into the next subject: the men in black. Not the movies, the real ones. MIB is based off stories of these figures. In brief, they cover up alien sightings, harass ufologists, and wipe memories. The series is supposed to be humorous rather than accurate. It is established that the men in black work with the government, or at least claim to. However, the mib often have strange features only explained by assuming they are aliens. And they cover up alien sightings. Aliens hiding aliens? This shows the conspiracy theorists researchers are into something and millions of extraterrestrial sightings are made yearly. Only a few get wiped by estimation, but enough that less people know. This gives reason to believe there are aliens everywhere, or at least in a lot of places.

Opinions? Do aliens exist? Are they coming after me?

Oh, they're everywhere! Apparently, everyone not living on your nation is an alien! AHHHHH!

Okay, seriously now. Yes, I do believe extraterrestrials exist. I mean, considering how large the universe is, and how little we've explored of it, there's always the possibility we're not alone in this universe. And I like to think we aren't.

As Castellia said. The Universe is so big, there's a chanceof one out of idk for at least TWO planets with life. We have millions of possible places in the Milky Way alone !

Considering how the Universe is so big and that there are estimated trillions of planets with Earth-like conditions, then I believe aliens do exist. Mysterious UFO sightings may prove the point, but I kind of have doubt that they were real... humans like to trick other humans. But change my mind, if you can :) I’m open to reasoning.

I believe there are aliens everywhere, perhaps on every planet capable of sustaining life.

Intelligent life, however, is seemingly impossible.

Possible. The 'grey' depiction of aliens is pretty unlikely, though, and I don't imagine any would look very similar to humans except by sheer coincidence.

Aliens are humanoid, abduct people, and all the other culture stuff is true. If you disagree with me, you're wrong. https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/ ... 13586.html

On a serious note, aircraft spottings are the only convincing proof that aliens are on Earth, the rest is really cheesy and unrealistic.

There has to be outside. In a galaxy far, far away, of course. Not sure about whether it is "A long, long time ago."

I'm not talking about alien conspiracies either. I mean, the universe is billions of light years across, so there definitely has to be someone out there.

If we are alone, it's a scary thought. If they are somewhere out there... let's just hope that they are not batshit like The Covenant from Halo, or that we are not in the Dead Space universe.

It's somewhat less likely that there is intelligent or malevolent life. I don't think the most advanced aliens that we'd realistically encounter would be particularly more intelligent than octopuses and wouldn't try to kill humans unless we're small enough to be prey.

Yes they exist somewhere. The galaxy, let alone the universe, is wayyyyy too big for humanity to be the only advanced sentient life out there.

Now are they out to get you?

No idea

I agree. Being alone by ourselves with so much space to discover... it’s quite scary. And the type of scary I don’t know how to describe...

But then they may try to kill us so I may retract that statement.

I can only dream that somewhere out there, there is a planet full of elephant-sized kittens. :3 Screw the Square-Cube Law.

On a more serious note, I think even bacterial life will prove to be a milestone. I read somewhere before that there could be life on Jupiter's moons, or Neptune's moons (maybe under that blankets of ice). Again, I might have read that wrongly, but if we are lucky, we could find some in our own Solar System.

I honestly believe that there is extraterrestrial life out there, but I'll go on a tangent and say that the likelihood we'll ever get a chance to meet other sentient life is pretty much impossible.

The Universe is big; there's bound to be others out there, but it's so expansive that there's no way to ever really communicate with them, let alone travel to them. And there are a million ways that they can go extinct.
(Which is called the Great Filter, which is related to the Fermi Paradox in that there are barriers that prevent life going from simple microscopic specs to interstellar empires and whatnot).

But I digress, there has to be at least simple forms of life in our solar system. Life, uh, finds a way

Aliens exist. Whether they’re on a technological level at or above our own - or whether they even exist in a way we can recognize as life - remains to be seen.

I think it is overwhelmingly likely there are other sentient and even spacefaring species in this galaxy and maybe thousands or millions in the entire universe, but they haven't been here and the reported UFO sightings are just manmade objects.

I think it may be likely that exceeding the speed of light is truly impossible regardless of any technological advancements, therefore most of the species of this universe will never run into each other.

Of course aliens exist, the universe is too big for there not to be.

If we encounter a lot of sentient life, then that means we're behind the Great Filter. And that means we may go extinct. If we encounter an abundance of non-sentient life, then that means we're past the Great Filter. And that we're mostly alone in the galaxy.
