Another Astronaut Reveals Belief in Space Aliens
<snip>
Leroy Chiao spoke this
week to students at the University of Wollongong in New South Wales,
Australia, and had this to say:
"I think there’s all kinds of life out there, including intelligent life,
but the reason we haven’t found each other is because of vast distances."
“Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not.
Both are equally terrifying.”
Arthur C. Clarke
“The idea that we are alone in the universe seems to me completely implausible
and arrogant, considering the number of planets and stars that we know exist,
it’s extremely unlikely that we are the only form of evolved life.”
Stephen Hawking
Saying that, mathematically speaking, it stands to reason that there is other
life out there, somewhere, is not the same as a "Belief in Space Aliens".
With the vastness of space, and the billions, if not trillions,
of planets, it's a certainty that there is life on other planets.
What's laughable is the idea that any have found a means to travel the
vastness of space within a reasonable time and chose to come here.
"Hey, there's this planet filled with life that hasn't yet found
a means to travel outside their own solar system within a reasonable
time. Let's go visit them."
