It’s been an age old question on whether or not we were alone in the universe, in my opinion it’s highly unlikely that we are the only species in the universe. Not only did the concept bring us some of the best creative ideas in the realms of movies, novels and TV shows. While aliens affected us socially, the term alien has been put to many things from expressions to a classification of immigrant. My opinion on this subject (as stated) is for the idea of aliens. I believe that we're not alone because it wouldn’t make sense if we were the only species in the universe, we may not be able to see them, and we probably can’t even comprehend them.
The idea of aliens probably span beyond the time in which we were able to record, from what I found the last record was before 960 A.D, This came from the phrase, "Empty space is like a kingdom, and earth and sky are no more than a single individual person in that kingdom. “Upon one tree are many fruits, and in one kingdom there are many people. “How unreasonable it would be to suppose that, besides the earth and the sky which we can see, there are no other skies and no other earths." -- Teng Mu, a Chinese scholar of the Sung Dynasty (960 -- 1280 A.D.)1904 This gives the analogy that space is a kingdom and the planets are individual people which gives the idea that there are multiple individual people in this kingdom, and that’s only the surface of the history of aliens. The first alien movie was the movie “Alien”, which sparked ideas for movies TV shows and more later down the road, so the concept of aliens is definitely real and was a source of great entertainment as well as philosophy. The data I collected from a source makes the Page 2) argument “our galaxy contains a minimum of 100 bi...

...heir will. Even the couple is reluctant to believe this actually happen but this kind of experience has happened before and there was no evidence against it then. There is evidence against it now how ever the experience was real so by technicality the aliens are real.
My conclusion to this is no ordinary call to action because there is nothing to fix or solve. The bottom line is I think aliens exist because it seems highly unlikely that out of the entire universe we are the only intelligent species. The term alien is very relative it can mean anything from an expression to a term for immigrant. The concept of aliens has done many things for us as a culture; it gave us a reason to want to explore the cosmos. The concept has brought an amount of joy in the form of entertainment from movies to novels. If that concept is real then “aliens” exist in a manner of speaking.
All of these definitions are exact and significant to this research because sometimes it is obvious people are unaware of the true meanings of these words. The meanings of extraterrestrials and aliens have been commonly misinterpreted. An extraterrestrial is something, living or nonliving, which is not from earth, while an alien can be something from earth, but is not native to its surroundings. An unidentified flying object is something that has never been officially recorded. In this case, the witnesses refer to th...
Ever look up at the sky and just wonder if there is life anywhere else? Have you seen anything in the sky that is almost unexplainable? What if your thoughts really came true? The thought of the existence of aliens seems to have been around since the beginning of time. There is one incident in particular that really hits home when talking about the subject, the UFO incident of Roswell, New Mexico.
The man with the most impact that changed history was Thomas Paine. He created a pamphlet called Common Sense . Not only did he have an impact he had a somewhat negative life. His burial was very awful. Paines beliefs in religion was different from other people. That belief caused him to create a book the age of reason.
Did you know that you happen to be surrounded by invasive species? These species are animals that come into areas they do not belong in. The articles, “Invaders among Us,” and “Invader Alert,” show this. They harm the environment, cost tons of money in damage and extermination, and they have to be prevented.
On June 24th of 1947, a pilot named Kenneth Arnold made the first and most famous claim that he saw a flying saucer. In that same year, William Brazel noticed piles of debris around thirty miles from Roswell, New Mexico. A combination of these two events sparked a popular culture phenomenon that has changed the world. Extraterrestrials have become a part of the average American’s everyday life. Even as children exposure to the idea of there being a different intelligent life in the universe is something they encounter in movies, television shows and books. In March of 2009, the children’s movie Monsters vs Aliens was released and has grossed over three hundred and eighty-one million dollars so far. As children grow up and become teenagers
The UFO crashes in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 the beginning of the peoples search for extraterrestrials. It was also the start of people’s quest to expose military secrets, and also the beginning of the largest search so far for the answer to the biggest question of them all. Are we truly alone in the universe?
Today we live in a world where many human beings move from one place to another. We live in a world where individuals in most cases move away or even escape their own country in order to live a better life than they had before. Though in the United States of America those who move in this country are called in such an unusual way. Those who move into this country, where I and million of U.S citizens live, are called the word “alien”, which according to the Oxford English Dictionary is someone who is “born in, or owing allegiance to, a foreign country.” When using the word “alien”, it mainly directs to immigrants from foreign countries in the world. When using the word “alien”, many individuals might immediately think of an alien who lives in
Different cultures throughout the world have historical events, in their histories that are very much similar to what we call a UFO today. The oldest recorded sighting belongs to Thutmose, Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt around 1500 (BC) “…A circle of fire coming in the sky… It had no head the breath of its mouth had a foul odor. Its body was one rod (16.5ft[5m]) long and one rod wide. It had no voice.” (Brookesmith, 13). Days after this, the number of objects increased it was said that, “these things became more numerous in the sky than ever. They shone more in the sky than the brightness of the sun, and extended to the limits of the four supports of the heavens…” (Brookesmith, 13). What could shine in the sky more than the sun? These ancient events did occur thousands of years before today’s world of technology and modern aircraft. This supports the fact that these UFOs were that, Unknown Flying Objects. In the past they had to deal with this any way they could, some cultures used religion and the Bible. There are certain passages in the Bible that could be translated as being sightings of UFOs. In Exodus Chapter 13, verses 21-22, “…the lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night.” (Brookesmith,13). This can be translated to the following as I translate it, it seems like these people were being led by a craft that lit up the night for them. This is a very convincing UFO description. Such an event at that time could only be inter...
The existence of life – Aliens, beyond our planet has been a controversial topic for several centuries, and is a debatable issue even today in the 21st century. What is our topic you may ask? Aliens, Do, Exist. According to theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawking, it would be improbable for life not to exist somewhere other than Earth. This is a bold claim, but there is evidence to support this statement. The evidence we seek is in the many Alien occurrences we have experienced throughout human history.
Is there such thing as life outside of Earth? The building blocks of life are carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. Those ingredients condense to form all living things, new stars and even new planets! So, who’s to say those ingredients didn’t form other life on other planets? Think about how vast outer space is. There are millions and millions of other planets, stars and galaxies! It’s not that far out there to think that there might be other life in space, in fact, some people even have stone hard evidence that supports the idea of “aliens”. I personally believe there is such thing as extraterrestrials, and I believe they have visited earth before. As a child, I remember my dad and I would sit around all afternoon watching alien documentaries or shows about people hunting aliens and searching for UFOs. When it comes to aliens people have so many questions; have aliens been to earth before? Are they currently living on earth? Are they controlling us? Does the government know? If so, are they hiding it from the public? There are so many questions you can ask but, in order to answer them, you have to
Do you ever consider the idea of the aliens visiting the Earth? If so, would that mean that there is a possibility of aliens coming to earth thousands of years ago? What proof is there to support this theory? For years, researchers have been finding surprising pieces of evidence for this theory, such as ancient religious texts, possible interactions with humans, artwork from ancient cultures of strange creatures, ancient artifacts from around the world, or evidence from the Bible.
There are numerous of different movies, books, and TV shows on how humans think aliens interact, look similar to, and what the media portrays aliens to be like. Occasionally, most will stumble across news articles with a variety of related headings about aliens, UFO’s, or recent known abduction stories. Every person has their own theories and or thoughts on these basic questions: do aliens exist? Could the government be covering up real life “space ships” or encounters? Countless folks have claimed to witness or have fanciful stories that have fascinated countless while several others are turned away. There are Videos, pictures and pieces of physical evidence to support nearly all of these stories. Even more alarming,
Do aliens exist? For eons, mankind has pondered over this peculiar question and a revealing truth has yet to be answered. However, one thing is known for sure, the discovery of intelligent alien life outside of Earth would provide support to prove and/or disprove fundamental beliefs that have been held for centuries. In any case, the discovery would serve as a cornerstone for humanity to make the quantum leap in understanding the purpose of our existence. Based on numerous examples, it is impossible to deny the existence of extraterrestrial life outside of Earth. Reportings of sightings, ancient civilizations beliefs, and scientific proof from scientists and astronomers are all key factors that contribute to this statement.
To conclude, there are no solid facts on the existence of extra-terrestrials. Whether or not they exist will, until definite proof is brought forward, be a topic of major debate. Personally I believe that there is something out there-although what it is I wouldn't hazard a guess.
In a blog about science education, John Romano, a science teacher, said that he would show Gattaca to his students as a part of genetics lecture (sci-ed). Gattaca is a Science fiction movie which explores the issue of DNA being superior and inferior which is related to high chance of survival of the human being. He also said that students having seen a possible future through a fictitious movie became motivated to learn the details (Sci-ed). Science fiction movies have been helpful to understand some topics. For instance, dissociative identity disorder, a very complicated topic, became an easy subject for me after watching a science fiction movie Split, which explored the causes of the disorder and its effects to an individual and his society. In addition, implementing science fiction narratives in classes would not only cover a specific subject like physics, but also other spectrum of science such as anthropology, sociology,
