Space aliens here.

The greatest limiting factor we will face, or anyone else, for that matter, when trying to go faster from point A to point B, is reaction.

You're driving along a road with potholes in it, it's all fine when you're doing 20 mph. Accelerate that speed to 160 mph, and all of a sudden, avoiding the potholes becomes a feat that not even the greatest race care driver alive can accomplish.

Multiply that principle by about a billion, and you have SOME inkling of what it would be like to try to pilot a space craft traveling FAST. At the end of the day, everyone's goal is to try to develop a way to travel at the speed of light, something we will HAVE to do just to get OUT of our solar system in a reasonable amount of time. What many fail to understand is that, without proper scanning technology. Traveling at light speed is about 186,000,000 miles per SECOND. Each second, you will travel almost 200K miles. Well, there's a LOT of **** that can happen in 200K miles. If you can scan out, say, 2 minutes ahead of you, or, about 25 MILLION miles ahead of you, you're just going to end up as space junk, scattered out THIN.

If aliens have the ability to travel great speeds, then it follows that they also have GREAT scanning technology, the ability to somehow detect things to a fairly high degree of detail and accuracy, at GREAT distances.

I like science fiction too.

Maybe. The possibility exists. I do not deny the possibility as a lot of others do.

I am not denying it, I merely point out the difficulties involved and the lack of evidence of alien visitations. They might be here, but a six foot undetectable invisible rabbit might be sitting next to me now.

I misunderstood your post, sorry. Aliens did not teach mankind to write. We are in agreement. Why wasn't their religion leading the way to what?

As dominance all over the region and with what they had to say about the Gods. (plural) Especially considering they were teaching others, from other tribes how to write and to put it in a coherent order.

Hey, watch out, bro....I had a buddy who had is foot gnawed off by one of those....we later got **** faced, and hunted it down (by it's foot prints). It was hard as HELL to cook...we ended up over cooking it just to be sure. Tasted like garbage. Woke up with a tremendous hangover. And NO ONE believes us!?!?!?

Yup. Now, don't get me wrong. I believe that life on other planets is almost a mathematical certainty. But unless they are from mars, or someplace "close", I simply don't believe we have been visited by aliens, unless they are just so technologically advanced as to be gods.

There was a movie staring Jimmy Stewart and his invisible rabbit, Harvey. I think each one of accumulates information and they makes up their minds about aliens being here or having been here. I do think if aliens had visited our ancient ancestors that would explain a lot of myths and legends that has been passed down for thousands of years. But no proof can be had one way or the other. It is all circumspect. But I do find it all interesting and as I stated, possible. Then there again each of us has to put his own odds or percentages on that possibility.

Or perhaps they learned to play DODGE BALL, (the hard way)

Would you agree that the gods were imaginary?

They would have to have faster than light spaceships in order to make the thing feasible. And telepathic powers in order to have detected us in the first place.

Telepathy? Nah. But a means to read light in a different way...some form of technology that let's them map far afield, in great detail.

I believe such a thing is possible. We are learning that there is no "space", that there is energy, of some form, occupying every square inch. There IS no empty. And with that, there MUST be a way to transmit information at a greater speed, at greater distances. It's like water. Sound travels better through it, because it transmits vibrations better. What needs to be figured out is, what sort of patterns can be transmitted through something like dark matter? Or, rather than sending out signals, is there a way to simply use whatever patterns in place to "read" what's ahead. Who knows.


Science fiction? Yeah, just like cell phones.

Why would I agree to that.....how were they imaginary? Other than the terminology, used to describe those that came down from the sky.

Lol, we know how cell phones work. So who first sent signals to our alien overlords using dark matter?

Ah, but did they come down from the sky?

Why would you doubt what several Sumerians said? Or why would you doubt that several of them wrote about it.....one theme is constant. From different civilizations from all across the globe. Something humanoid was coming down from the sky. Now some may have called them Gods.....due to time and terminologies back then. Today we would call them ETs or Aliens.

As none today would just outright use the term.....GODs coming down from the Sky.

Not just old stories then? I must buy some magic beans, I want to see the giant.

The speed, yep, IF they had come from th stars, but the tele????? not necessarily, what if they had already been here and planted us here or had just been looking for minerals? (that's another theory the science/space-minded have)

No offense intended, but is English your first language? Your posts are very unconnected and rambling.

Well, the Sumerians did put it out there with their Cuneiform writings. From their Kings to their poor and then their slaves.

Only magic beans I know is Coffee.....just sayin.
