Re: Do you believe in UFOs?
57 species?
IMO, this is just fantasy.
We are a blue speck in an incomprehensibly vast universe, of trillions of stars and who knows how many planets.
Whilst I accept that there is likely to be life all over, and I accept that we have been/are being visited (without any concrete evidence I might add), I just cannot accept that 57 species are here. This just goes too far beyond my envelope of belief.
I'll try and explain why, with a dash of common sense.
There may be inummerable races out there but there are inummerable planets. And people think as many as 57 visit our tiny blue dot? Out of all the other stars and planets to visit? I don't think so.
Most of them will not know we even exist, and whilst the "local neighbours" might know of us and visit us, once you get into the vast expanses, then really we'd be pretty much undetactable.
Also, the more you buy into the universe teeming with life theory, the likelyhood of a multitude of races visiting us would appear to increase, however conversely by definition a universe teeming with life gives a hell of a lot of other planets with life for interstellar travellers to visit, thus decreasing our chances of being visited by many races.
My personal opinion, I can't prove it of course, is that I suspect we have been visited by one or two races, more than likely closer neighbours who a) have more chance of discovering us and b) would be more likely to have an interest in our planet and what we're up to.
I can't prove this of course, its just my belief, but I certainly don't expect to see proof of 57 races any time soon. To me, its just not reality.
My suspicion is that it is dreamers who overlaying our own sense of self importance into the equation....we think we are important, therefore we must be being visited by loads of races, such is our importance.
Also, as an aside, I don't know how vast the black Government is, but has anybody thought of just how much manpower it would take for them to identify, communicate and catalogue 57 species? Along with all of the other so called projects? And lets face it, they are alledgedly up to thousands of secret projects that all would take major manpower. You'd surely be talking about a massive organisation of maybe millions to be able to do all the things this black Government is supposed to be doing...alien identification being a tiny drop in the ocean, yet a massive job in itself. Where is the manpower?
We need to apply common sense and we need to ask these questions, and when you do that, then the idea of 57 races visiting or blue dot becomes more and more unlikely, laughable even.
Its science fiction to me.
