NASA Cover-up

Re: NASA Cover-up

What I've always believed is the earth is at the very best position in the solar system to create and maintain life. Since the planets are slowly moving away from the sun, the earth as of now recieves just enough sunlight as to where its not to hot or to cold to produce life. Mars at one point was in the earths exact position and it looked very much like earth. Since the distance increased between the sun and mars, its since dried up whatever bodies over water once inhabited the planet. Venus at its current position is too close to the sun so it remains a big rock full of volcanic activity hence the huge veil of steam that covers the planet. So at some point in time in the future, the earth will look like Mars and Venus will be the new earth as the planets move away from the sun.

That's it....I'm buying up Venutian real estate now! Damn aliens won't know what hit 'em!

Re: NASA Cover-up

The pyramids bring up interesting topics. We've been trying to firgure out how they did it for centuries now with countless theories and ideas. Could it be that the egyptians discovered some technology or writtings from an ancient civilization? If some skeptics believe aliens helped them out with the ideas, why not an already earth born ancient civilization. Maybe the egyptians were that ancient civilization? For one thing, they reside in the desert and who knows whats buried beneath all that sand and rock. One thing is for sure, the egyptians knew something that the rest of mankind hasn't been able to piece together yet.

Good questions. I've heard theories that Atlantis was actually made up of aliens who brought their knowledge to other civilizations like the Mayans and the Egyptians.

These are fun things to speculate on but it's strange to think that if aliens did have contact with ancient man, why are they staying away now?

I'm going to try and look it up but I believe an 'airplane' was discovered in a pyramid at one time.
I'll see if I can find it.

EDIT: I got it wrong. There was evidence that the Egyptians may have known about flying devices:

Aliens? Mankind wiped out multiple times, stars quazars and galaxies.

This thread sounds like a Star Trek convention.

People are wondering about aliens and probably half the folks on this board don't even really know their next door neighbor.

Don't know exactly why, but this post had me in serious laughter.

Nearly spit out my 7up I'm drinking. Great post.

Nine pages of alien discussion, and no pictures of Sam Cassell?

That really is a sad but true statement. We would rather have a conversation on a message board than a face to face human to human contact.

Star Trek convention? Don't know their next door neighbor? What are you talking about?

We aren't talking about whether or not Jean Piccard(only reason I know his name is from a song) and his crew can save the human race, while being 30million light years away from here in a space ship. We are talking about the possibility of alien races, alien technology, the Egyptian culture(which was extremely advanced for their time), etc..

Sure some of the things posted here are outlandish, but none of them are out of the realm of possibility.

That really is a sad but true statement. We would rather have a conversation on a message board than a face to face human to human contact.

How is it a sad but true statement? So people are only allowed to either post on a message board or have face to face contact? I didn't know we weren't allowed to do both throughout our lives. Thanks for clearing that up.

I love how people are considered "nerdy" now because they are talking about the possibility of extraterrestrial life. But it's not "nerdy" to talk about a sporting event that you're not partaking in.

Re: NASA Cover-up

Here's an XFiles theory for you.

Is it a coincidence that technology and the advancement of the micro-chip soared after the Roswell incident? bum-bum-bum!

No, I think that once the human race gets the ball rolling on something, they can accomplish alot in a fast amount of time. Look at anything over the last 50 years, once the concept was feasible, its a race to the finish.

Here's a question for you. Lets say you take all the people who regularly post on OS, say 200 or so, and sprinkle some women in there so we could reproduce. And then you destroy the rest of the world. Take away everything we own and throw us in the wilderness. No signs that there ever was a previous civilization remain. The only thing we have is our memory and knowledge, but no books or even writing instruments.

How many generations until we are typing on computers again? How long until we make our first gun. Now think about it. I have a masters degree. I read all the time on various subjects, but I would be screwed. I cannot fathom how long it would take to replenish the earth to its current state, let alone build upon it.

As we advance through the generations, we would rebuild some of what we had, but we would most likely stumble on other things and not be able to replicate things we already had because some things we have now were created by geniuses that come along every millenium or (Were given to us by aliens if you choose to believe that). We might not ever make it back to what we have now. In fact that is most likely the case despite the fact that some of us would have first hand knowledge to do things, but we would not have the means and that knowledge would fade over time.

Conversely other previous civilizations may have made it 1000 years or more past where we are now, imagine what they possibly had. Or they may not have progressed as far as we have, but yet had some things superior to what we have now, especially in the areas of raw mathematics, architecture, etc.

Re: NASA Cover-up

First off with the pyramids:

Not built by slaves, any Egyptologist will tell you that, examine all the evidence and it is pretty easy. The Hebrews weren't even in Egypt at the time, the time they entered was with the Hyksos invasion after the end of the Old Kingdom (which is the period of Egyptian history which built the big famous pyramids). We have found the quarries they used, we have found the overseers tombs, we have found the workers themselves, and just recently we have found what seems to suggest ramps inside the great pyramid at Giza. The remarkable thing about the pyramids is not that they were built, but really how precise they were, that I cannot explain how. If you look at the pyramids built before the ones at Giza, you can see failure after failure and trial after trial, it isn't like Giza was their first try. If you want to discuss the details of the pyramids with me, feel free I am pretty well versed in this. If you want something to look at and really get your mind going, read some of the stuff put out by Robert Schoch about the age of the sphinx, that to me has a lot more questions than the pyramids (although I still think it was built by Khafre).

As stated earlier by I think Fistofrage, we don't give ancient people enough credit. I think sometimes people assume ancient people weren't smart because they weren't launching sattelites and flying planes. Look at the technology being put out in the Mediterranean World up until the fall of Rome. Some things which have emerged are: the Antikythera Device (you want something to marvel at, look at that thing), the steam engine, batteries, use of hydraulics, Rome at times was on the verge of an industrial revolution, but the empire was so badly run and overextended they couldn't quite get there. Watch a show like Ancient Discoveries on the History Channel and you find some pretty wild stuff, specifically the works of Heron of Alexandria. They knew the size of the Earth and its shape well before Copernicus or his ilk emerged thousands of years later. In my opinion, one of the greatest shames in history was the distruction of libraries in the western world as the Roman Empire fell, as well as the Byzantine Emperor Justinian destroying anything he deemed "unchristian". There is a lot more to the ancient world than we know now, and they did some pretty impressive stuff.

Now:
Aliens, yes I believe in them, I even believe they know about us. I don't know if they have a moon base or whatever, but I could see why a government would lie about it. Now as has been suggested earlier, a lot of people would have to be lying about this, so maybe the whole moon theory isn't all that true. I have always wondered what would happen if aliens ever did come here, and made official contact and all of that (hopefully peaceful). How would the powers that be respond, how would our lives be changed? One of my 7th grade teachers would say something to the effect that "Maybe aliens are here, maybe they aren't, but sometimes I wonder if they saw us and just figured we weren't worth their time or they didn't want to get involved with us because they saw our history". That made sense to me, if it is an ultra-peaceful society, look at human history, we get in some big war all the time, I don't know if I would want to mess with that, let them sort it all out before giving them a lot of technology or whatever.

Start from the title and page 1 until now, and reassess your question. I explained already. If you don't understand that's not my fault.

We aren't talking about whether or not Jean Piccard(only reason I know his name is from a song) and his crew can save the human race, while being 30million light years away from here in a space ship.

The conversation wasn't far from it. I read a post about another civilization in here moving to mars or the moon one, while the earth goes through eco tragedy.

We are talking about the fantasy of alien races, alien technology

Fixed

The Egyptian culture(which was extremely advanced for their time), etc..

I'd say more efficient. Just because they didn't have the internet doesn't mean they were dumb or couldn't create or figure things out, even at that time. Do you think they evolved from monkey's or something. How arrogant of modern man. Too smart for our own good?

Sure some of the things posted here are outlandish, but none of them are out of the realm of possibility.

LOL, none of them huh. Just like not knowing the person who lives across the street from you.

Re: NASA Cover-up

I love it how it's a "fantasy" that there might be alien races and technologies. Why is it a fantasy? Because you've never seen them?

So because you've never seen them, they don't exist? Just like how Indians(Native Americans) didn't exist because Europeans had never seen them?

I'm sorry, I didn't realize ET was a reality.
