Are we alone in the universe?

¨Sightings within 500 feet are subclassified as various types of ¨close encounters¨( Hynek 41.) There has been over 104,947 sightings in a decade. There was a sighting back in the 1600s when John Winthrop had unusual writing in his diary about a ¨great light in the nighttime sky”( Hynek 32.) In September 19, 1976 people in Tehran, Iran saw an unidentified flying object around twelve am. Systems started to fail when the unidentified flying object was twenty miles away. Most sightings have been reported in Roswell, New Mexico. In the year 1947, a balloon was seen crashing into the land of a nearby ranch near Roswell, New Mexico but theories say otherwise. Multiple accusations have been argued about it but, the real mystery, if it was just a United States Air Force balloon then why did they try to cover it up?

     In 1947 a UFO was seen near the town of Roswell, New Mexico. It was

With all our knowledge of everything around us, overwhelming as it may be, there are still a lot of aspects that are unknown to even the smartest scientists. Did you know that humans know only 5% of the entire universe? Yes, everything we know about the Earth, the Milky Way, and all the planets is barely even a fourth of what comprises the entirety of the universe. Knowing that, it would be illogical to say that the creatures on Earth are the only forms of life in the universe. Today I will tell you about unidentified object sightings, close

Witnesses say that they had seen UFO and have evidence to prove it. On July 3, 1947, Dan Wilmot and his wife were sitting on his porch when he saw a bright light. When he stared at it he saw a flying saucer. He said

One might be lead to believe that after all of these hundreds of years, aliens would have been seen in the flesh instead of floating over the Earth’s atmosphere for all this time. The point is, there has not been one single sighting of an extraterrestrial in person after all these centuries and because we have not seen one single alien being in person all the way up to this point, there is no way they exist.

We live in a universe that is about 46 billion light years old. In a world, as massive as ours there must be some form of extraterrestrial life out in the galaxy. For thousands of years ancient peoples, such as the Greeks, have wondered the same question. Are we alone? As our technology advances, things such as videos and photographs are surfacing of people claiming to see such alien life. Whether it is an unidentified flying object, or if it’s from someone claiming to see an actual alien, there are thousands of people that believe they have seen proof. Some also claim that the government is hiding things behind our backs, like the Roswell UFO incident for example. Though many people refuse to believe in the existence of alien life forms until they see evidence, the fact that multitudes of people have eye-witness accounts, the improbability that we are alone, and the idea that we have thought of aliens so long, bring forth the evidence that proves something is out there.

Other than that, all the story of aliens and UFOs starting to be an issue after the UFO crash incident in Roswell, New Mexico. It all started on June 25, 1947 when a pilot named Kenneth Arnold reported seeing several objects while flying near Mt Rainier, Washington. His descriptions of the objects that flew like geese and moving like saucers that you bounced it across the water and became the term "Flying Saucers", and thus the age of the UFO was born.

Aliens and life beyond earth has been a mystery for a long time. Many people and scientist have been looking for life outside of Earth, or just floating in the sky trying to get video of it. For all of human history we have been looking for extraterrestrial life, and these are the major events of finding, debunking, and moving forward to life on earth

In the late 40s and early 50s there were several reports of suspected UFOs and there was even one very famous case of a crashed ship on a ranch outside the town of Roswell New Mexico. The farmer reported strange unidentifiable materials and cables in his pasture and alerted the authorities at the nearby military base. Once on the scene the officials quickly gathered up all the debris and took it back to the base to examine it. Everyone got into an excitement over the reported “flying disc” that was recovered. But the next day, Brigadier General Roger Ramey held a press conference and announced that the “hoopla” (http://www.history.com/topics/roswell/print) had been about nothing more than a weather balloon. It was at this point that the conspiracy began because although the government had reported it as a mistaken weather balloon, many still firmly believe that an alien spacecraft was recovered.

The truth covered in lies in Roswell, is a topic that has been talked about since 1947 that doesn’t seem ti end for a long time. Was the event that occurred in New Mexico really a UFO? Did the government covered up the story and say it was a weather balloon? What is The Project Mogul about? Were the real aliens covered by “Dummy Drops”? These are questions that have been asked along with others, and the people have been answering in their own ways, based on their theories and reasons, but what experts think is that the government covered up the story, and “why?” is a good question.

     The Roswell incident is one of the most publicized and well-known accounts of a possible UFO crash in the world. Perhaps the greatest evidence that a UFO did indeed crash near Roswell, is the wide scale military cover up that took place after the crash. This along with numerous eyewitness accounts of the crash site, prove that what ever

Should we as humans expect to find intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe? There are many reasons for and against this concept, but first we should trace just how our terrestrial life started.

The biggest question we all ask ourselves at one point in time or another is, are we really alone in the universe? Many believe that all known encounters and evidence is either false, a hoax, or an attempt at fame and glory. True believers stick to the physical evidence and hard facts that follow these mysterious encounters. One specific event that occurred at Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 has baffled theorists and experts for generations and will continue to leave a controversial standpoint on what really may have occurred. This occurrence in particular has left a lot of unanswered questions about extraterrestrial existence due to the fact that most of the evidence collected from the incident is to either to old to be a credible source or the government has covered up the evidence and left a false influence behind. Overall, how has outside influence altered personal encounters and experience with extraterrestrial contact with relation to the Roswell Incident?

Astronomers believed the Universe was created about 14 billion years ago. During that time, the entire Universe was inside a bubble that was thousands of times smaller than a pinhead, and it was insanely hot and dense. Out of nowhere this little bubble started expanding. This expansion created what we know as the Universe. In such little time the Universe went from the size of an atom to the ginormous galaxy we have that is continuously growing.

Scientists believe the solar system began about 5 billion years ago, perhaps when a nearby star exploded and caused a large cloud of dust and gas to collapse in on itself. The hot, central part of the cloud became the sun, while some smaller pieces formed around it and became the planets. Other fragments became asteroids and comets,
