I guess I have faith too - confirmed evidence would doubtless be too hard to find as I suspect it would be immediately spirited away by military types. But my faith is based on the evidence of my own eyes which is good enough for me - along with around 40 others I witnessed a UFO hovering over the field of our rugby club's ground during a training session. Whatever was on board probably had a good laugh at our lineout practise before shooting off into the distance. Pre mobile phone days, so no chance to take photos, but, as they say, I know what I saw...

I think far too many people have for it all to be untrue. And I think that there are even more who don't say anything for fear of ridicule.

In my case, ridicule would have been hard as it was reported in the local paper the next day as well. Strangely, I looked through the paper's archives a few years later but the story had disappeared.

Iwas with a group of people in mid wales and we saw a light zig zag through the sky and then disappear...

Just released by NASA - the deepest and sharpest image of the early universe ever taken, the light in which is thought to be 13 billion years old.

No-one will ever convince me that we are alone in the universe.

I wonder which one of those little dots is the earth?

Have to agree with both Bolton and Fez the chance that we are alone is remote imo. What form that life will take is anybodies guess as we assume that they will be a version of us. If they are clever enough they will have checked us out and scarpered quickly and wait until we grow up before saying hello.

My favourtie ST film is First Contact - fills me with hope.

Ours was close enough to see clearly - a long cylindrical object, probably about the length of two buses, glowing bright green. Hard to say how high in the sky it was, but the playing field is at the foot of a 600m high mountain and it was definitely lower than the peak.

It's out there allright, but the bold bit is the key for me.

I agree. There’s those dirty bastards up the M1 for a start.

I wouldn't trust NASA if I were you.
When Armstrong and Aldrin landed on the moon, it all seemed amazing, until there was a short break in the transmission of the images. NASA simply stated that the pictures had stopped briefly due to atmospheric interference.
What really happened was that as Armstrong hopped over the ridge he encountered a bloke pushing a wheel barrow in a donkey jacket with WIMPEY across its back.

I've never really trusted NASA to be honest - ever since the reputedly last surviving pre-emancipation US slave, Charlie Smith, was invited to watch the Apollo 11 launch in 1969, and he famously announced that he didn't believe it was going to the moon.

If they had faked it, the Soviets would have been first to pipe up and we wouldn't have heard the last of it.
Can't be doing with this tin foil hat stuff, sorry.

Maybe, maybe not. At the time, the Russians were denying that they were in the 'race' & their lies were a few years away from being exposed. There's every chance that they would have said nothing.
