but still i think is common in human history to create almighty figures in order to explain the unexplainable...at first it was some crazy angry god when a thunderstorm was coming, now is aliens....i mean to believe in this theory i would need a decent amount of faith, as it was a sort of religion, and i'm one of thous guys who needs tangible proofs...
still a nice "sci-fi" documentary though...
i think the tangible proof is right there for you, just travel into space a bit further than the neil armstrong "big steps". we are as sci-fi as it gets ourselves and walking proof that there is life in outer space, and we are too stupid to believe it, which is due to our own shortcoming, nobody's keeping us from touring the whole universe. the day will come that humans can travel further within the galaxy perhaps, or a bit further. i hope so, if we don't destroy each other before we get the chance to. frightens me that people like Hitler, had definitely destroyed the earth if they had the chance in a last struggle, i bet he wont be the last maniac to walk on earth. bombs get bigger and bigger. so hopefully there will be supplied with "proof" before we destroy ourselves.
the mainstream science is stubborn and arrogant, arrogance should vanish when we realize we have very little knowledge of the universe we were brought to life in, quantumphysics is just evolving and there's only a handful of smart enough academics capable of comprehending it fully. . as to whether there is life out there, i think it's a silly question, the chance is 100%. the estimated size of the universe is many many billions of lightyears, so even if we had the speed of light we would never get far to discover anything, or the theoretically existing wormholes might have it's way. gods and extra terrestrials are different things obviously, we are aliens ourselves, aliens without UFO's to annoy others. it's one big crazy phenomenon, the earth and space. since the universe seems to be expanding, it has begun once, possibly.. the question what was there before would give a huge headache.
it's estimated that all planets combined, would have a number greater than all the sand grains on the beaches of earth combined. and it's probably much more, on top of that there is a possibility there are more universes than this one. this is enough information to be convinced of aliens existing. surely it's all material exceeding our human capacity to comprehend, it reveals us as we are: nothing. but we love to keep the illusion that we are something, and others need to prove their existence instead of vise versa, just as our "God" apparently only has his focus on our planet . the sun is going to die some day, which is a fact, and when it does, i'm afraid all human beings living on it will too, nobody will mourn, there's probably numerous planets having inhabitants wondering the same thing we are wondering.
