Re: Couple thoughts about Aliens... on Mars...

Seems every week "Alien Hunters" find evidence of Alien life on Mars by looking at NASA Mars surface photos. Today another. Apparently Mars is a giant junkyard of discarded Alien refuse. Sorry, not really trying to be sarcastic here... for those of you who do think all these things are 'proof' more power to you.

But I do have one big question I've never been able to find an answer to that also seems 'logical'. WHAT benefits would the govt., or NASA, get from 'hiding' Alien life proof? Answers to this always seem to eventually regress to: "It's for our own good". Ehhhh, not sure I buy that.

For NASA it seems far more logical to me to announce any possibility of alien life with a 76 Trombone parade... struggling for funds this announcement would flood them with money.

The Govt. "Tech" Advantage... IOW... kept secret so governments can study alien craft in hopes of acquiring advanced tech so they can conquer the world.... I dunno. I mean.. if they've been studying the Roswell Spaceship, (No, I don't believe in the Roswell Spaceship), since what? 1947? And haven't figure it out yet then I don't have high hopes for them ever learning much.... BUT, we get better every day so who knows?

Now the saddest part of my post. My entire life I've always thought the discovery of alien life would be the most momentous event in mankind's history. I no longer think that. In fact.... bacteria, or one-celled life being discovered now seems to me a 'given'... and when it happens, (if it does), I'll LIKE it, but I won't be amazed. Now intelligent life.. YES.. that would be mind blowing. - JamesJM
