        There aren't even signs of intelligent life in the White House, so I wish scientists luck in looking for it in space.

        Not a fiction or 'Alice in Wonderland', but a reality based on the study of deep space and unusual happenings that are coming to light. We are certainly not alone as out of billions of stars with systems around millions the possibility of life in habitable zones is surely there.

        Humans know a fraction of what is to be known about deep space. The study of astronomy is a very interesting luxury. In the overall scheme of things, the lives and health of all American people are far more important.

        Fully appreciate your feelings, but you are thinking in a very limited way. With 6 billion people around & more on arrival list the earth will have no place even to live or grow food. Astronomy is not a luxury, but an open eye to warn of & evade hazardous asteroids & comets etc.

        If Mankind originated on Earth, then all living animals on Earth’s DNA wouldn’t be all rotating in the same direction above and below the Equator. Also the Sun wouldn’t be so harmful to us. FoxP2 is in the Nucleotides of all Human DNA. FoxP2 is not from Earth. Boom! #WOKE #Us1

        We are safe in out isolation... if we run into intelligent beings we are likely to either be conquered by them or eradicated by them, and they will most likely not be biological entities. They will be hyper intelligent cyborgs or robots that lack empathy.

        For astronomers talking about UFOs its diverting attention from the onjectives of astronomy.

        Because God is infinite,no past present or future exists or can exist.The struggle to understand the “the tree of knowledge” continues,but prehistoric man understood existence of man better than modern man.

        it is not modern neuroscience and psychology that proved senses are not reliable, this was such a simple truth proven in variety of ways for thousands of years.. in a sense much before we discovered zero or number system or our quest for science started.

        in fact because this "truth" was so well understood, idea of yoga was developed to know reality without relying on senses... that is what they called God realization or self realization.. or in other words "realization of reality without relying on senses":-)
