The 6th Man on the Moon says - ‘We’ve had visitors’ (from digg).
For those who might consider his statements farfetched, Mitchell, who has a doctorate in science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, noted that 30 years ago it was accepted that man was alone in the universe. Few people believe that now, he said.
Why does the media so often see this as a binary issue? To me there’s three basic positions one can have: 1) life (or “intelligent” life) does not exist elsewhere in the universe; 2) aliens have landed (or continue to land) on earth to probe our butts and make crop circles; 3) life (or “intelligent” life) exists elsewhere but has yet to visit our planet.
Seems to me that the third is the most plausible but somehow the most frequently ignored by the media. Why? Just because it’s the most boring and least controversial?
