I was just sitting here thinking back to my youth and how I was so into the possibilities of UFO’s, Extraterrestrial life and the mysteries of the unknown. So many people were criticized, chastised and made fun of that believed they encountered any of that stuff. Scientists mocked any fellow scientist that would even think about doing research or had any interest in such things. The attitude hasn’t changed much through the decades, if you claimed to see a UFO or that you’ve had an encounter with an ET your looked upon as someone who is either crazy or someone on drugs who had a bad hallucination. The funny thing is considering who vast and how old our universe is, it would be quite vain to believe we are the only intelligent life forms  in it.  Do I think that aliens may have visited earth? well I believe it’s a remote possibility, considering they could be light years ahead of us technologically, who is to say they didn’t spot our planet and seen it had life from light years away.  Even though with the knowledge and technology mankind has today we do not know of any way for them to travel here in a timely manner, we do have some theories that make it a possibility. They may have discovered ways of travel that we haven’t even dreamt of as of yet. Would they abduct humans to study etc., of course they would look at us probably as we do animals or primates, lesser species with limited intellect. They probably would see our potential as well as are unfortunate habit for being a self-destructive species. So I would gather they would try to avoid becoming to involved with us.

Now science has found that the Goldilocks zone for inhabitable planets is more common than they once believed and they have discovered quite a few planets that are within that zone, it leads us to question if there is other civilizations of intelligent beings out there in the universe.  Well I guess until a UFO either lands on the white house lawn in full view for all to see or something as spectacular, we will only have speculation and theory to ponder on. Either way it is kind of nice to dream a bit about such possibilities and ponder on how our lives would change if they became reality.

Well there you go, some really random and out there thoughts.
