In the eighties I was walking home from work when I saw this strange star shaped blue light in front of me next thing I knew I had been abducted by aliens one of their experiments was that I was forced to drink eight pints of exhibition before they eventually released me. - Don't believe me? neither did the exwife
I believe they have reconstituted a neanderthal man using DNA taken from the empty skull. There was a total vacant shambling body and when it opened its eyes it uttered guttural sounds that could only be translated by an English scientist.

The 1950's was the Nuclear Age, we also sent various probes into orbit and there was a lot of media talk about space travel. Then there was also the Cold War and broadcast television, so, thought the creators of fiction and reason, if we venture into outer space, then 'others' venture here ... If the 50's was the Nuclear Age then the 60's might be considered the Space Age. We had Yuri Gagarin (1961) and the Apollo Missions that put men in funny suits going hippity hoppity on the moon. The pace of change, such as mass transport, audio technology and so on. There was also suburbia and newtowns, environmental change, youth culture and tourism/leisure and entertainment. The general upheaval was, compared to previous decades something unique and for many alarming. All media sold with fiction and the 'experts' foretelling a future or alien world and by the 1970's (arguably the Computer Age) Star Trek ruled the planet. Of course there were aliens everywhere
