My "source" who is now deceased, told me that initially 2 were alive but one of those 2 died right away. I was told that the Live ET and the dead bodies were moved to a different location almost immediately and that they were finally moved to somewhere in Alaska. Not sure if the last living one was supposed to have died before or after being moved to Alaska. I have no idea whether or not the person [ he was our families closest friend for many years] was delussional or a great story teller. I know that youngest son was extremely ill and in excruciating relentless pain during the time Bill was telling us the stories. I do know that he made the stories seem so real that my son was able to get his mind off of his suffering when bill was talking about it. I do not know or care if they were/are true.

This post in Yahoo Movies says early 2017 for release:

I feel the same. There is more excitement recently due to Tabby's star and the SETI signal from the Hercules constellation. So the release date is a good one at best.

I think it is highly unlikely, that in the entire universe (and beyond) , we are the only planet that somehow ended up with life on it. Too many people have seen too many unexplained things for too long.

If you have heard of the Kecksburg, Pa UFO incident, I was there that night. Here is the story:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kecksburg_UFO_incident

I was about 20 and after dropping my date off I went to a local gas station, where my buddies worked. They said they heard on the radio that a flying saucer had landed in Kecksburg (about 10 miles from where we were) so four of us jumped into my car and drove to that town.

As we drove up the main road into Kecksburg, we were met with a road block and a lot of military guys with guns. They ordered us to turn around and leave, and when I protested, the soldier said "Either you leave right now or we are going to arrest you.....what do you want to do ?" Obviously, we turned around and left, but I remember that night as clearly as today.

The next day, we heard a large flatbed military truck had left the area with something big under a tarp, and with a convoy escort. People we talked to said they had seen something big and roundish down in the woods before they were escorted out by the military. They also said the military showed up almost instantly, when it landed.

Of course we are not alone. The evidence is around us daily and seen by those with an open mind who are paying attention to the skies overhead. Just start paying attention.
It will make a believer out of you and maybe scare the hoop-de-doo out of you at the same time.

Do I doubt that there is other life in the universe? No. I'm convinced that there is, but at distances so vast that it would be impossible to visit us. Do I believe in UFO's? Yes. I saw one up close and personal hoovering about two stories above a house I was spending the night at in a tent. We were around 12 or 13 at the time.

I could see square windows all around the craft that look like windows you would see in an airplane. It had red and white lights all around it like you would see on an airplane. It made no sound except for a quiet hum.

Do I think there were aliens in it from another planet? No. I think it was something military. Either from us or another country. It flew off to the north towards the Great Lakes Naval base. Early stealth fighters may have been mistaken for UFO's. The military isn't going to parade experimental aircraft around in plain sight now are they, yet they still have to fly them. Why not do it in the middle of the night and scare a couple of girls while you're at it?

From all I've read about Kecksburg, the most likely explanation is the crash of a Soviet space probe or satellite -- which would explain the secrecy surrounding the recovery. The big hovering objects around Great Lakes Naval Base and other locations might be secret surveillance or transport dirigibles being tested. So I think both of these likely have a military explanation.

Anyone who firmly believes humans are the only intelligent life form on the universe, past or now, wants to see a doctor.


Logically alone the numbers are against such a thing. We only "know" firmly about only a small part of the entire earth's history. Even then much of that information is centered on Europe and Africa (so called cradles of human development and early civilizations). Prior to the first Europeans discovering the "New World" they new basically nothing of South and North American continent. Even the native populations barely covered much of the land leaving immense areas uninhabited. Anything or whatever could have "arrived" and even remained then departed without being noticed.


There is a cult horror film (Horror Express) that deals with this subject matter. Basically an alien life force along with "friends" visited the earth millions of years ago, they departed but he was "left behind". So for the millions of years since this life force has survived by jumping basically from host to host, and waiting/planning/trying to find a way to get home.




What is "out there" could be anything from a highly advanced civilization to other various life forces. It is only mankind's puffery that makes him believe human beings on earth are the only creatures in the universe and or at least superior.

This is a straw man. One can believe that there is intelligent life out there but that is has not visited this planet.
