...Aliens have always been a mystery. Aliens started to make their appearance in ancient history. Historical landmarks have been claimed to have been built by aliens. There are a lot of UFO sightings. There are mysteries even science cannot explain. Which raises the question, do aliens exist? Aliens have shown signs in history with weird unexplained landmarks. “Pyramids were found on Mars”(Jasper Hamill). So is that where our pyramid design came from? “In ancient Peru, archeologists have uncovered mummified remains with enlonged skulls”(History.co.uk). Scientists claim Mars once supported life and has signs of water underground”(Jasper Hamill). Aliens have to exist because of how large our universe is. Scientists have found alien planets that have an atmosphere and could support life. “Water is a key ingredient for life and is very common in our solar system”(ABC News). Unexplained signals have been discovered from outer space as well. It is believed this is someone trying to communicate. They are just too far away for us to pick up the signal. Aliens could very well exist with all of these planets and signs we have discovered. Some scientists ask if there is life why haven’t we communicated? “Some scientists say there is no way to make contact because they are too far...

...Wes Bodnar Mrs. Mckeown Honors English 10 9 December 2015 Extraterrestrial Life Really Does Exists Philosophers and astronomers alike have always been always asked one question, “Are we alone?” The existence of alien life has been a controversial topic since before the earliest civilizations. There have been countless hoaxes trying to prove the existence of aliens, but there are also a number of compelling reasons that support the existence of alien life. For example, there is a high probability they exist based on statistics, because life can travel from planet to planet, and there have been thousands of extraterrestrial sightings and encounters; it is highly probable that aliens exist. First off, aliens can be proven to be real by some simple probability and statistics. Our solar system is just one of tens of billions of solar systems in just the Milky Way Galaxy. There are so many possibilities of life in just one galaxy, and there are hundreds of billions of galaxy’s in the universe! Earth is just one of a seemingly endless amount of planets, so it’s hard to imagine that Earth has the only abundance of life in the entire known universe. Also, in the article, “The Likelihood of Extraterrestrial Life” it explains that all humans are made up of three main elements: hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon. Actually, all known life is mainly composed of these “ingredients”. This knowledge suggests that there are many extraterrestrials to be found across the cosmos because all...

...to believe aliens have come to Earth. Paynter believes analysis should be conducted with the highest standards of scientific inquiry. The reason is, so the UFOlogists need to prove what they claim. He also says that one should remain skeptical about the existence of UFO’s without any physical evidence to support the claim. Word of mouth is simply not enough proof. We should not believe everything, and we need to be skeptical so that we use critical thinking skills to come up with our conclusions. I think Paynter makes valid claims about the need for better evidence to prove there are UFO’s and alien lifeform. If the UFOlogist wants to demonstrate the existence of alien’s and UFO’s they need to be testing all evidence they find and following up on credible sightings. Paynter was right when he said, “The UFOlogical community have to support their conclusions with probative evidence and rigorous reasoning and to confront the skeptics with the evidence they so dearly seek a demonstrably alien artifact.” (Boss, 2014) Some believers maintain the demand for physical proof of alien visitations are unreasonable because aliens are too intelligent to leave physical evidence of their presence on Earth. (Boss, 2014) Paynter responds to their claims by saying “such an argument may make sense to somebody who is prepared to believe in alien visitations as an act of faith, in the same way, which some people believe in angels.” (Boss, 2014) To establish the claims that UFO’s exist we first need...

...Evidence for the Existence of UFOs”, Edward Condon and Royston Paynter have divergent and convergent views about whether or not UFOs exist. Condon's general contention is that we don't have adequate proof to demonstrate UFO's existence. He firmly believes they don't exist. He expresses that individual perspective focuses or sightings don't bolster a genuine general view that UFO's do exist. He likewise contends that teachings of UFOs are decimating students. The author's principle point is that we have not concentrated on UFOs enough to know whether they exist or not on the grounds that the legislature overlooks the UFOs that are not known. The author clarifies that we could say that UFO' do exist due to numerous sightings by several individuals from various societies around the globe. Paynter's fundamental point is that if we don't have genuine physical proof of a UFO or aliens, then they don't exist. He additionally expresses that if individuals’ claim that they were stole by aliens, then they require genuine evidence proves or supports their argument. For example, uncommon DNA or characteristics, or anything that demonstrates they are from aliens. He additionally expresses that more research should be done on UFOs. Paynter’s argument to some extent holds water since he says that the law of physics will not be violated it were to be said that the aliens visited the earth. However, the existing scientific paradigms have not shown any proof of any of such occurrence, which again...

...Prachi Sonani Mr. Bal Honors English 10 29 September 2014 Extraterrestrials in the Universe No one has seen the element ununoctium, but it does not indicate that it does not exist; in fact it is an actual synthetic element that has yet to survive for more than a thousandth of a second. All that is needed are scientists who can stabilize the element to survive longer. The same goes for extraterrestrials. Just because no one has found them, it does not prove they do not exist. Extraterrestrials are any form of life that does not originate, or did not originate from Earth. When people think of aliens, they imagine creatures like Megamind, E.T., and many others that they have seen on television or read about in fiction books. What people really forget is that life can be as simple as an individual cell, or a microbe; so when asked, without thinking, many people say they do not believe in the possibility of life elsewhere. Over the years, scientists have dedicated a significant amount of their life looking for any type of evidence. There is a great possibility of extraterrestrial life existing on other planets as is evidenced by the history of the universe, the extant research, and the expanse of the universe. The past of the universe substantiates the possibility of aliens living on other worlds. In order to find the proof of life, the scientists have intensely studied planet Mars. About 16 million years ago, the collision of an asteroid with Mars blasted martian rocks in...

...What do the movies E.T. The Extraterrestrial, Prometheus, Aliens, and The Fourth Kind have in common? They are all about extra-terrestrial life! These movies will send shivers down some people’s spines, and others will roll their eyes at it. The debate over extra-terrestrial life has been going on for decades and it has given rise to one simple yet hard to answer question: Do other life forms exist? Many people are firm believers in the presence of other life forms on Earth and in outer space because of the monumental amount of evidence that supports the presence of these mysterious creatures. Thousands of years ago, people began documenting the first sightings of aliens. Only these primitive people did not go to their local police station. Instead, they recorded their sightings in a universal language that everyone could understand: art. One...

...Aliens, do they exist? That is a huge question that people are asking today. Before I did research on this topic I didn’t really know how I personally would answer that question. I of course leaned toward no but then again I was always wondering if maybe they were out there. My dad and I like to watch history documentaries and I had watched several documentaries on aliens. But every time I watched them they would show these weird sightings being caught on camera. The fact that they didn’t know how to explain it always made me wonder what it could really be. However after researching the topic I can say with surety that there are not aliens in space. This was a very interesting topic to research. There were many points in the articles, from Creation Ministries, brought out that do a very good job of making the idea of aliens a childhood dream. I liked the author's way of explaining the topic, making it very clear that Aliens truly existing is the excuse of those denying God. I find it interesting that so many people really do believe this with absolute surety. But then one can see that they want to believe...

...Do you believe supernatural beings exist? Tough question to answer, right? When it comes to the supernatural topic, most people believe that they are mythological and not real, but is that really the case? If the term 'supernatural' means of a manifestation or event) attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature, why is it so hard to believe that they are real. There is so much evidence lying around the Earth as we speak. But the real question still remains. Do supernatural beings really exist? I'm here to explain to you why supernatural beings do exist. Religion takes place in almost every home throughout the world. Religion is what people believe in and helps people with daily life. Whether it comes to Gods, Goddesses, mythological creatures, or natural forces, almost every religion has some type of supernatural importance. In the Christian Holy text, The Bible, there are fractions that suggest that supernatural aspects. They mention things like messenger angels and devious demons. The bible even states the Lord...

...Do space aliens really exist? Yes, aliens means belonging to a foreign country or nations. Three days into the Apollo 11 they reported a flying object close to their location they thought it was a detached SIV-B rocket when they heard that it was 6,000 miles away they had no explanation for it. UFO's are very likely not aliens from outer space UFO's is the acronym the Air Force uses for any unidentified. Three days into the Apollo 11 flight the astronauts on board sent a very strange message to the mission control asking, "Do you have any idea where the S-4B is with respect to us?" The crew on board did not want to make a big deal out of the object for fear. That it will cause panic and the mission control would order the astronauts...

...Bolanos Narrative Writing Wow! If I had to choose to be raised by robots, dinosaurs, or aliens, of course I would choose aliens, duh! Aliens are a completely different species. I would have the chance to learn a whole different life. It would be a very unique thing to be raised by aliens. I mean, come on. It’s aliens we’re talking about here! I probably wouldn’t do the same things humans do such as eat normal foods, play video games, watch TV, or have a job. I would probably be living on a whole new planet or a spaceship which I think would be pretty awesome, in my opinion. I could probably abduct the people I don’t like on Earth with that strange beam of light into my spacecraft. Who wouldn’t want to do that? I see aliens as basically humans, but a lot cooler with their green skin and...

... Plane manufacturers and airlines, such as British South American Airways, are hiding the fact that planes are disappearing due to mechanical problems telling people the disappearances were caused by aliens or by the lost city of Atlantis. The manufacturers did this in order to save their businesses from bad publicity. Airlines and plane manufacturers are not only able to deceive the public, but they are also able to make the public believe something else entirely. In the mid-1900s, planes were still new so they were definitely going to have some problems. However, companies that manufactured these planes still did not want people to know that it was their fault that these disappearances occurred. In order to cover up this fact, these companies had to make up a story to draw the people’s attention away from them. “At 2,000 feet you’d be leaving very little altitude for maneuver. In any serious in-flight emergency they could have lost their height in seconds and gone into sea” (“Bermuda Triangle plane mystery ‘solved’”). Companies along with the help of historians have come up with many different excuses for these disappearances. The most common excuse is that aliens were to blame for these vessels’ disappearances. “A downed spaceship lurking deep underwater, its dangerous alien mechanics interfering with our own technology? Perhaps. Or perhaps the Bermuda Triangle, along with another similarly rumored triangle in the Pacific off the...

...be Friendly? One question that has plagued the minds of many an educated mind while living on planet earth is the existence of alien life. The earth, which is often referred to as ‘the world’, is the third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest of the eight planets in our Solar System. The earth is only a tiny part of our universe, which is made up of many planets, galaxies, clusters and super clusters. With such an enormous universe, it would be outrageous to even contemplate that there is no extraterrestrial life out there. With this question being so prominent, another question arises and that is ‘if there is other species of life out there, will they be friendly?’ From this question, we can make an assessment on whether we should be advertising our presence by sending messages to stars or just staying quiet. Extraterrestrial life is defined as life that does not originate from earth. ‘Referred to as alien life, or simply aliens these hypothetical forms of life range from simple bacteria-like organisms to beings far more complex than humans’1. Earth is moderately young compared to the rest of the universe, so therefore one can only assume these extra-terrestrials would be far more advanced and complex then ourselves. Although many scientists consider extra-terrestrial life to be plausible, no direct evidence has yet been found. If they do exist, we come back to our will they be friendly question, and we can use certain theories to explore this. A phrase that originated from...

...border security, and reorganization of several federal government agencies into the Department of Homeland Security. The United States Department of Justice has asked that state and local law enforcement help secure the American homeland. The federal government has groups involved in maintaining border security, other officers working on immigration enforcement, but many feel as though the government has taken a “hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil” approach to illegal immigration. Police at the state and local levels often are puzzled about how much authority they have in regard to immigration laws. Local law enforcement officers of have very little timely information about aliens with whom they come in contact. Many times officers do not know if they have apprehended an illegal alien or someone who may possibly be a terrorist. Space and funds become an issue if local officers want to detain suspects, or transport them to the immigration service. Officers may also hesitate to hold suspects or question them for...
