Ok,kanga,Most scientists and so called ufo experts were always quoted as saying pictures pre 1980 were inept and to hard to define as being positive proof.
However today most of these so called experts are saying older pictures are better proof because modern pictures are more accessable to fudging.
No win for the picture proof.
I've always been confident that life elsewhere in the universe exists.
The idea of being alone in the universe seems as ridiculous to me.
As the claims the world is flat or that the Earth is the centre of the Universe.
I believe the Government as done an excellent job of ridiculing the subject and breeding a generation of ignorant skeptics.
The poorly done Hoaxes in this internet age only perpetuate this.
I'm of the opinion we have been visited & observed for thousands of years by many different species.
I think Roswell was real, I think the craft in Rendelsham Forest was real, I think first contact happened long ago.
Where there is smoke there is fire and there is a lot of smoke when you look into this subject.
BTW - I'm not saying it's wrong to be objective, just that some people I've mentioned the subject to are sceptical to the point of ignorance and very close minded even when presented the facts.
There was a lot of smoke about dragons, leprechauns, goblins and evil spirits as well. Didn't make them real.
Re Roswell - I think it was real too, - a real weather balloon. Why is this so hard to believe? There have probably been hundreds of thousands of high-altitude research balloons launched over the decades. From the photos I've seen - it looks like a weather balloon. The 'evidence' that it was something else is at the level of 'dragons, leprechauns and goblins' - ie - hearsay.
The probability of there being other life somewhere in the universe - well, we really don't know. We know about one planet - with a 100% success rate at producing life. We really have no idea whether this is the norm, or an incalculable fluke.
But consider - cellular life on earth began about 3.5 billion years ago. That took nearly 3 billion years to develop into multi-cellular life we would call animals. They went through the stages of photosynthesis, multi-cellular life, reproduction. Photosynthesis requires sunlight and carbon atoms (in carbon dioxide). Can it happen with other chemicals? There's no evidence on earth - but that's the only place we've looked.
Then there was another half-billion years in developing animals to the level of intelligence we are at now - capable of interplanetary communication and travel (rudimentary, but we can do it). Could it have happened quicker - sure, but we don't know how. Now maybe other life forms are out there. Can they communicate the way we do - primarily visual, aural and tactile. Maybe other lifeforms communicate via chemical reactions (as some plants and bacteria do) - how could we understand them and vice-versa? Unless other lifeforms develop some level of dexterity (ie hands), they are unlikely to be able to build spacecrafts. Maybe they develop ways of 'growing' technology - eg, centuries
And that's all assuming that other life is cellular-based. That's all we know. There may be other bases for life we don't know about - we just have no evidence.
Most skeptics are not close-minded - it's the UFO enthusiasts who assume all aliens, alien craft, and governments will look and behave exactly like something out of a 1950's sci-fi who are limited in their thinking.
Apples and Oranges, Roswell is an interesting one...
Why did the authorities say they have discovered a flying disc and retrieved bodies and then recanted that statement the next day?
They also told the locals to keep their mouth shut and forget the incident.
Why did the military open fire on a ''Weather Balloon'' in the event called the Battle of LA ?
Come on dude, Futurama has already explained Roswell quite sufficiently....
Seems sinister at first glance, that been the retraction but the evidence bears out about a surveillance balloon crashing. The Air Force got skittish and decided to say it was a simple weather balloon and not their little top secret balloon. So there was indeed a cover up but it wasn't aliens. As for the bodies, as far as I know, that claim never came out until over 30 years later. Personally I'd be skeptical of trying to dredge memories up from that far back, not to mention there were a few eyewitnesses who were rather unreliable. Are you going to accept at face value accounts of someone who had lied about been an air force pilot (Marcel) and whose version of events has constantly shifted? That's just one of the issues with the accounts....not to mention other issues with the whole incident. The alien claims are very unconvincing, to me at least.
As for the Battle of LA...is it really that hard to believe that the US were a tad jumpy considering that they had just gone to war with Japan? Something is misidentified and then shot at...understandable really given the tensions of the time. I've probably oversimplified it but that seems likely as to why the gun batteries pumped all that lead into the sky.
Personally I don't think its all that implausible as to there been other life in the universe, whatever that form life takes. It's a gigantic universe with billions of galaxies after all.
As for Europa, I think NASA have announced that they are going to plan a mission to there in a decade or so. Now that would be pretty cool.
Stanton Friedmanns book on roswell is the best read on this subject.Yeah I can see both sides of the argument, however I'm still open to the possibility it was aliens and that we have been visited or currently are being observed. I can't shake the feeling we aren't being told the full story and sadly we will probably never know for sure what happened at Roswell.
Wish they would hurry up and make that Europa mission a priority, it's more important than Mars right now.
Next year we will we see close up images of Pluto for the first time, exciting times.
Back on UFO's, this is a pretty interesting one.
Seems like something really went down...

Anyone care to debunk these?
You do know there are approximately (and I am not making this up) about 100 million pieces or space-junk out there orbiting the earth? Now, most of these are tiny (smaller than one mm), but there are still thousands and thousands big enough to show up on cameras etc. These have come from booster rockets, bits falling off satellites, rubbish disposal, and just plain old 'astronauts dropping the spanner'.
THE most credible explanation for these - particularly those in the region of existing space stations or even space probes is that the source IS the space station or probe. Sure, we don't know exactly what they are - technically 'unidentified' - but we have a pretty damn good idea of where they come from.
On the 3rd Mercury mission, the astronaut (John Glenn - later US Senator John Glenn) reported strange 'fireflies' accompanying his spacecraft throughout the mission. There was no explanation found at the time, and it created a bit of a sensation. The observance of these 'fireflies' become one of the key objectives of the 4th Mercury mission. They turned out to be frost particles caused by condensation on the outside of the capsule alternating freezing and defrosting as the capsule passed in and out of sunlight during orbit.
Are there any photos/film of UFOs that are not fuzzy, out-of-focus, out of range?

Aliens are not visiting us at the moment no matter how desperately some people want to believe they are. (for the record I wish they were that would be far more interesting..)
That's just what the aliens want us to think.
I think you might quoting out of context. Life is reliant on many things, and Earth is lucky enough to have these critical elements, so life is not exactly a fluke.You guys do know how hard it is to form life...
There is no defined ratio of planets to life...
Life on earth is a fluke according to scientists..
