Well there's no proof that was an alien. Could be some mutant of some sort. It's not like they saw it take off in a ship to classify it as an alien.

About coming to our planet: there is a theory that the greys are actually humans from the far distant future.

what do you mean when you say 'look like us' ?

do you mean look like us as in they could walk amoung us without being noticed? or do you mean the basic characteristics?

i think its very obvious that there is many other types of life out there, i think it would be absolutly silly to think the entire universe is empty besides us.
as to what aliens look like... it would also be silly to think we look like this, and every type of alien out there i looks the same but nothing like us. They'd all look different, they woulda evolved thier own way based on thier planet. So i've always thought of it the way Typhoid has said..

Lets say thier planet is all water, im sure theres an advanced (evolved) type of alien species out there that lives and breaths under water.
And theres other that have evolved breathing a different type of air, and all kinds of different things coulda happened during thier evolution.

Now what you gotta think is, the kind of alien that would visit our planet phisically would most likely have evolved similarly... so i'd say the chances of a alien (if ever visted here phisically) looking 'huminoid' (arms, legs, hands, eyes, maybe in much different perportions) are actually not too bad.

I still think it would be higly unlikely, but perhaps that's because I recently read Michael Crichton's Sphere.

Why would an alien have 2 arms? Why not 4, why not 40? I wanted to ask why it would have 2 eyes, but that's because stereoscopocy I guess... though 1 large eye would do the same trick.
But still, why would alien lifeforms even have eyes? Perhaps they wouldn't be using the same spectrum we do... And again I say, perhaps they wouldn't even live in our 3 dimensions.

yes but it sounds like your saying theres only one kinda alien out there.. i'd say theres tons. and ones as you speak of that dont use the same spectrum or didnt live in the '3 demension' the way we do... Would they be the the ones most likely to visit earth? or would it be more likely that a species out there that evolved on a simular planet be the ones that visit?

im sure there are things out there that we cant even imagine, but you gotta think that ones that would phisically visit earth would be somewhat more likely to of evolved simularly then what your saying.




about the 2 eyes, i had read before about why creatures have 2 eyes, doesnt it give you depth perception or something? which is why animals and people and even fish alike all have 2 eyes. but they could have 1 or 3 or none.

and even if a alien had 4 arms, i'd still say its humanoid. it would still be simular, i dont think an alien is going to look exactly like us.
but you keep saying why would 'an' alien have 2 arms and not 40 and things, but why do you say an alien? maybe there are some out there with 40 maybe with 2, maybe with none, i think theres gotta be countless ways to have evolved into an intelligent life form out there.

its even possible to me to think that maybe out there theres a planet that the beings evolved exactly the same and look so much like us that we couldnt tell the difference.



But none of us could ever answer these things anyway, but its interesting to see how other people think



And as we all know from scifi shows and movies that everyone in the universe already speaks english :P

Sure, there could be some life that looks like us, of course. But I'm relating this all to the 'alien encounters' that people believe in. What are the odds for that? But I guess you don't believe that either, so we're cool.

Same thing goes for evolution. The odds for accidental creation of life are so extremely small, that a lot of scientists agree it couldn't have happened.
I'm not participating in that 'intelligent design' stuff, though they agree with me.

but see are odds really predictable for anything of that nature when we dont/cant even understand the size of the universe or the universe itself?


i dont really understand your question about peoples sightings? are you asking what are the odds that they look the same or what are the odds that people actually see them or what?



What i kinda do is relate to us.... if we as a people were to find other planets with 'intelligant' life, and say one planet has life with a form of gas we cant breath or is toxic to us, and one planet is all life is underwater, and one planet is a species that looks like monsters to us... and one is a planet that resembles ours and has life similar to ours, Which would we phiscally visit?

Turns out it was a scam to make money off this UFO researcher:
