Zen Garden > UFO's - Are They REAL or Have Millions of People All Over the World Seen Thousands of Different Optical Illusions?

Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 is perhaps the most famous and celebrated case of a UFO "incident." If you follow the main accounts of this story you would indeed be influenced to think that something from another world did crash on planet earth.

All of this is denied, of course, by the US military and the US Government. They described the extensive wreckage and debris that was strewn across the countryside as a broken up weather balloon. Whatever it was there was a massive operation to clean it all up in record time.

Supposedly, eye-witnesses were either sworn to secrecy with the aid of financial "incentives" or threatened with physical harm if they did not change their original accounts of what they saw and confirm that the debris was, in fact, pieces of a simple weather balloon.

To this day it has remained quite a conspiracy. It has never really been adequately explained. Rumors abound that the pilots of the extraterrestrial vessels are still in captivity, presumably dead and preserved in formaldehyde glass tombs.

We also have thousands of photographs and film recordings of mysterious lights in the skies all over the world. Every country has reported the acrobatics that are so often displayed by these lights. Whatever they are, one thing is certain - they defy the laws of physics on this planet as we presently know them.

Notice I said: "as we presently know them." Just over a century ago mankind never knew about radio waves or electricity either. Neither of these can be seen, yet they are now there for us all to use in our everyday lives.

During the time of sailing ships everybody believed that the earth was flat and that to sail beyond the horizon would see a ship fall off the face of the earth. To where, nobody was really sure.

Just a few centuries later we have been able to send astronauts into space and land on the surface of the moon. Other probes with powerful cameras have also been sent into space. Organisations like SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) now exist.

How arrogant do we have to be to deny completely the existence of intelligent life forms in other galaxies? Are we the ONLY entities alive on the ONLY planet capable of sustaining life? That is what we are led to believe.

Surely, if beings from other solar systems have been able to venture here then they must be more advanced in technology than we presently are. That only stands to reason.

Given the advances that mankind has made in the last two hundred years and, the exponential rate of that advancement over the last twenty years then the possibility of life on other planets in other solar systems becomes more and more plausible.
