Those last 3 pics have been proven not to be aliens. The insect one is a vase of flowers, and the bottom 2 are messed up carvings.

Prove it.

Prove it.

The glyphs are a result of both erosion of the stone surface (evident elsewhere in the temple) and the process of filling in and re-carving the stone to replace some of the original hieroglyphics. The technical term for such a surface that has been written on more than once is a palimpsest. The usurping and modifying of inscriptions was common in ancient Egypt throughout its history. The Abydos glyph was modified at least once in antiquity, and perhaps twice. Some of the filling has fallen out in places where the older and the newer inscriptions overlap, and the result is unique and odd-looking.



The text is part of the titulary of Ramesses II and can be translated as "The one of the Two Ladies, who suppresses the nine foreign countries." This replaces the royal titulary of Seti I that was originally carved into the stone. More technically, the actual "helicopter" seems to be a portion of the psd.t sign and the X3s.t sign on top of each other, with portions missing. An apparent change in scale also mucks things up.

Taken from elsewhere
And here's the vase

That helicopter ain't no chicken. And that still looks like an alien to me. ;o

Visited or not, I don't know. But I am downright convinced that other life does exist...
I've seen pretty epic shit, from objects that look like stars moving, in circles, left to right, etc.. to star-like objects being stationary then shooting off..insane.
But I try to tell people and everyone thinks I am insane.

For the Madonna with Saint Giovannino:

The top one also probably has a similar explanation. If I knew the title to the top painting I could probably look it up.

And are we sure there aren't egyptian hieroglyphics that just look like that? I could also say "Oooh! That one on the left looks like a street light with grass on it and the one in the center looks like a bell hanging on a string like we have in our modern buildings!! And there's one on the left too that looks like a barreled gun or horn!" To be honest I think it only really looks like that through power of suggestion. Not to mention also that I could probably say every hieroglyph looks like something modern if I thought about it enough. The alien picture is also really too blurry to tell much of anything but the eyes and the face which to me could easily be a vase - a very pretty one at that.

EDIT: Oh wow Alex... You've already done it for me. *didn't refresh while posting and did an hours worth of looking up crap first*

I'd say bacterial 'aliens' have probably came to earth on meteorites, but not 'intelligent aliens'.

I actually believe that Earth is some pet project for another race that is way beyond our advancement.

Some alien or UFO encounters that I would regard as well documented encounters:

• 1917: More than 70,000 people became witness to a phenomenon which they described as the sun "dancing". They could all stare at the sun without wincing.
• 1897: a UFO of some sort crashes in Aurora Texas. People at the time reported finding a dead body not of the world and burying it in the cemetary. Metal recovered from the crash was thrown in a well. Some people started contracting tumors probably caused by the high levels of radiation from the UFO. To this day the sheriff doesn't allow anyone to excavate at the cemetary.
• 1955: A group of strange, goblin-like creatures bullied a family, while the family shot at them. I like this one because if it were a hoax it was very well done.
• 1957: Antonio Villas Boas reported being abducted by aliens. On board the UFO he claimed to have had intercourse with one of the aliens. Medical examinations in the following weeks showed radiation sickness. This was before the Hill abductions so the idea wasn't wide spread.
• 1994: Meng Zhaoguo reported also being abducted. A polygraph test showed he wasn't lying.
• 1947: The infamous Roswell UFO incident.

There's a lot more. I couldn't go through all the articles

look veeeeeeeeery carefully.

I still don't see anything. Tell me what it is....now!

Some people think that wearing a tinfoil hat stops aliens from reading/controlling their minds.

Oh I see. That's not very amusing Brad.

Clearly you never watched Signs.

[Melchoire]

Clearly you never watched Signs.

I did and I found it pretty okay. I kinda find it hard to believe that aliens can be killed with water.

Agreed. Aliens killed by bacteria or virus is much more likely.

Or an uzi, damn.



Edit: Oh shi-
I believe aliens exist. And that... THEY HAVE VISITED THE EARTH.

As microscopic organisms on a meteorite crashing into the ground...? Maybe? >.>

Idk, seems an awful waste if we're the only inhabited planet in the entire universe.

it's like two lovers across the world, looking up into the night sky at the same moment gazing into the glowing moon.

Or that they've mastered space travel but are stupid enough to go to a world where most of it's water yet water kills them, or that they aren't smart enough/strong enough to kick down a door even though they can jump like 10 feet into the air.

ouch, ps: If two lovers are across the world one would be staring at the sun and the other at the moon. Plus I'm in Vancouver and you're in canada right?
