  1. 1. If aliens existed should it be exposed to the wider public?

    • Yes. We all have a right to know if other intelligent life forms exist!
    • No. People would panic and this could lead to anarchy!
    • Other. Specify.
  2. 2. What do you think would be the outcome of your answer to Q1?

    • Humans would be fascinated and welcoming.
    • We'd all lose it and anarchy would reign supreme
    • Other. Specify.

We are slowly being brainwashed by hollywood to accept that aliens exist. Just take a look at how many alien/sc-fii movies are released every year. Why is this so? What could be the reason.

It's simple, aliens don't exist, an yes I enjoy sci-fi and alien movies.

Google is your firend (sometimes) :-)

:rolleyes:

cooI story bro , needs some dragons and aliens.

Aliens are the discussion of this topic. I didn't think I needed to mention them. But I did forget about dragons. Something I am ashamed of :(

I think knowing that aliens exist would be the best thing ever for the human race. Not only would we realize we're aren't along in this universe, it would give all of mankind a common enemy. Well, except for the traitors who worked with them.

I agree that such knowledge can potentially unite the whole human race and this is undoubtedly a good thing.

However, I don't think that all the aliens are hostile.

You see, I'm a strong believer in the application of Newton's third law of motion beyond just physics (to every action there is always opposed an equal reaction). So, if there are hostile aliens running amok across the cosmos preying upon the weak civilizations, then there must be some kind of inter-galactic police force there.

I believe in good vs evil, the justice, and the propensity to balance.

I know this topic is old but I still think it is an interesting conversation and it seems silly to create a whole new topic for it.

Anyone else wish to weigh? Change their position?

Could you provide evidence to that? Or have you personally visited the Billions, possibly trillions of Planets out there and checked? Or if you are getting it from a book, could it be a book that wasnt written by a bunch of superstitious primitives.

Couldn't you have waited until next month and then celebrated the threads birthday of its last post?

I could have, but then I would have robbed you of the opportunity to point that out ;)

This is a pretty commonly asked question: If intelligent alien life existed and visited earth, should the wider population be informed or would it be more prudent to keep it a secret?

Some things you might consider before answering:

1. Are the aliens hostile or friendly?

2. Do the aliens want their existence to be widely acknowledged? If not, do we have a right to disclose that they do anyway?

3. What is their purpose of arriving, e.g. In need of asylum, refugees, resources, trade technology, simple exploration etc.

If you're wondering why I put this in the conspiracy area instead of somewhere else, it's simply because some people already believe there is a conspiracy to cover up the fact that aliens have already visited, regularly visit or are on their way.

I added a rough poll just to stimulate discussion, feel free to elaborate in a reply. :alien:

1. Are we alone? - No. One must be a real ignorant to think we are the only ones in the universe.

2. Are aliens good or evil? - We do not know, but if there is evil here, I am sure there is evil out there as well.

3. Do aliens want Humans to see them? - I think so.

4. Will aliens make "official" first contact with Humans? - Definitely. It's only a matter of time before they do.

5. Is the government hiding the truth about aliens? - They are hiding something, otherwise why are they so worried about people taking a peak at Area 51 all the time if all they have there are "secret military planes"? - Give me a break.

whose to say that they haven't? nobody knows....except for wack jobs that make false claims....but seriously. <Something to think about, huh? I like these form your own opinion type of threads, personally.

1. Are we alone? - No. One must be a real ignorant to think we are the only ones in the universe.

2. Are aliens good or evil? - We do not know, but if there is evil here, I am sure there is evil out there as well.

I'm sorry, but what evidence do you have of alien life? You can't simply argue the universe is a big place, therefore alien life must exist.

Respectfully, you're using the word ignorant, ignorantly.

As far as the words "good" and "evil" go, I think they are nebulous, superstitious words.

What evidence do you have that there isn't any more life in the universe?

Deflecting and misinformation is a good way to keep busy looking for something else why you're off doing something completely different. It's also safe to say if you have secret black projects being developed, you are worried about prying eyes. It's silly to say you need an alien excuse to want to keep something secret.

I don't need to have evidence there isn't, you need to have evidence there is. The burden of proof isn't on me. I really don't understand why people have troubling grasping this very straight-forward point.

The person or people who make a claim have to be the ones to provide the evidence for it.

You said it yourself: There isn't any evidence indicating that we are the only living beings in the universe, therefore you cannot sit there with a straight face and tell us that we are the only living souls in the entire God-created universe. Common sense tells you that if God was God here, why couldn't he be God somewhere else as well? Common sense my brother...common sense.

NASA recently discovered Earth-like planets hundreds of light years away, unfortunately we can't go there, but if we could, I would be more than glad to take you with me to show you and proof to you that our Earth is not the only planet with living lifeforms in the universe.

Also, you do realize that Mars has ice caps right? Ice is made of frozen water and water is the main source of life. Mars had life at one time thousands of years ago according to NASA. Where did they go or what happened to them is still a mystery, but there was life there at one time. Here you go, just for you:

Although I agree that there a great chance that there is life out there, maybe even just bacteria, maybe intelligent forms of life, we have yet to find any evidence. The articles you link to simply indicate that mars could have supported life, not that it definitely did.

Yes, they are hiding something. No one knows what it is. You're obviously interested in aliens and are pulled to the idea based on a lot of myth that alien technology/aliens are located there. All anyone knows is that something may be hidden there.

Though the following video strongly uses examples of the super-natural, it is also very poignant here IMO. Just replace any reference of "super-natural" with "extra-terrestrial" as you watch ;P

You cannot assume something exists because there isn't evidence that it doesn't exist. It doesn't work like that.

Also, common sense is not much use in science & logic.

That's an assumption. It could very well be true, I wouldn't bet against it, but it's an assumption none the less & I wouldn't be so ignorant as to act like I've been there & know.

You mean military planes aren't exciting enough for you? I find it bizarre that you think it's more likely they are hiding an alien spaceship or some other interstellar doodah. Talk about fantasist.

But, hey, I've never been Area 51 so maybe they do have a crystal powered monkey navigated inter-dimensional time machine. I just think...well.. probably not; or at least I'll wait til I see it.

When did god come into the topic? Again this claim of god falls on you to provide the evidence of it's existence. Just like the aliens you say exists but have no actual evidence of.

    • This makes me think of Dune for some reason.
    • I'm too old to return to the "good old days" when I was installing custom ROMs and tinkering with my devices - now I just want to turn it on and use it. I've read that banking and payment apps work on Murena /e/OS (I'll have to check the ones I use) and I also really want to support Fairphone 😉

    • NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe by Fiza Ali NVIDIA has announced that 35 AI high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers are planned to open throughout Europe this year. This marks what the company describes as the largest single-year expansion of AI infrastructure in the history of the continent. These new systems, unveiled at ISC High Performance 2026, will be placed at a number of national supercomputing centres, AI factories, and research institutes to provide advanced computing resources to more than three million researchers. Describing AI, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated, "AI is the new instrument of science, and Europe is building the infrastructure to put it in the hands of millions of researchers." Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell and Hopper architectures, the new systems will support research in climate science, healthcare, clean energy, quantum computing, and other scientific fields. Among the major projects are the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's MareNostrum 5 AI upgrade, BavariaAI's Blue Swan platform in Germany, Italy's IT4LIA AI factory, Germany's HammerHAI project, and Sweden's Mimer AI Factory. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center plans to expand MareNostrum 5 with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and GB200 NVL4 systems. In total, the BSC expects to deliver up to 20 exaflops of AI training performance and 33 exaflops of AI inference performance. This increased computational capability will support research efforts related to climate modelling, biotechnology, energy systems, etc. Furthermore, as part of the IT4LIA project, more than 8,000 GPUs, each based on NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL4 architecture, will be used in Italy. This represents one of the largest AI factory initiatives announced to date. Additionally, the Blue Swan platform from BavariaAI will include about 1,000 GPUs to help develop multimodal AI models for use in the medical field, robotics, and various areas of scientific research. NVIDIA also emphasized in the announcement how rapidly growth of accelerated computing usage is taking place within both energy and climate-related research. The company said Siemens Energy uses NVIDIA-powered technologies to significantly accelerate the process of designing and simulating hydrogen-capable gas turbines. Using those same acceleration technologies, Siemens was able to reduce simulation time by up to 77 percent. The company also highlighted several quantum computing initiatives across Europe. CINECA, EuroHPC, and Pasqal are integrating a quantum processing unit into Italy's CINECA supercomputing centre using NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform. Meanwhile, researchers at Germany's Julich Supercomputing Centre recently simulated a universal 50-qubit quantum computer on the JUPITER supercomputer. The announcement demonstrates Europe's continued commitment to building out its infrastructure supporting AI and supercomputing as governments, research organizations, and technology companies compete to build out their respective computing capacities and secure their positions in advanced scientific research.
