Alien life is already here.

The world governments just don't want to deal with the public unheaval caused by official confirmation.

[Look Chang]

They are coming ...

[Paul Markham]

There hat to be other planets with alien life. The problem is are they advanced enough to conquer the vast distances of space?

[CaptainHowdy]

We are the alien forms of life . . .

Wow that looks so amazing. I didn't know about Breakthrough Listen until now. Thanks for sharing! And what an exciting project to be a part of.

They don't have to conquer any distance. All we need to do is detect them. Then we can know for sure that we are not alone.

Nasa is supposed to send probes to Europa soon. The probe is supposed to contain a robot that can drill through the ice and launch a little submarine robot into the water that they think may be there. Of all the worlds in our solar system, I think life is will be found there.

You always seem to have such a jaded perspective on things.. Even if that were accurate it is more likely that the only thing they know is that they can't explain what something they saw at certain given times. Does that equate to alien life? Not definitively in any form. Does that mean they know and are hiding it from us for nefarious reasons? Probably know all about it and feel the need to hide it from everyone for some god knows reason? Extremely unlikely...

If they don't know what they are looking at, which is almost certain, then the best way to deal with it is to not speculate. Where if a nervous nancy got elected it would cause certain public UPHEAVAL.

Which is exactly what I said. There is life elsewhere, whether it's advanced enough to conquer the vast distances of space is yet to be discovered. Should there be intelligent life on other planets capable of flying through space like in Star Wars. The last thing we want to do is announce we exist.

I'd be hesitant to use the word "nefarious" or "god knows reason". There could very well be good viable reasons to keep existence of extraterrestrials under wraps. The potential effect it could have on religious and social structure would be unpredictably profound...possibly devastating. What fear, panic, chaos and anarchy could take place with the revelation that technologically and biologically superior aliens exist and have been in contact?

Perhaps the decision to keep their existence from the public is being made with good intentions. Who knows.
