Everytime I see something like that it gives me a headache. The MW is but ONE galaxy and our solar system is just in an arm of it. You can supposedly see whole other galaxies in the sky. Wow. Unreal.

We are relatively young in terms of the age of our solar system. If you look towards the outside there must be millions out there that are hundreds of times older than us...and there are folks that still think we are alone...

No, no. We're special and unique. There couldn't possibly be another place with such intelligent life as we have here.

with everyone having cell phones why hasn't there been more ufo sightings?
Why?

Cause they've got more interesting places to visit.

Now, where's the wormhole to get to one of these hot terrestrial planets.

Maybe we ARE alone. Now. Maybe other whole civilizations have*existed and are now long gone on other planets. Over millions of years that might be more of a possibility than concurrent existence.

Why?

Cause..................
Cause they are too busy walking into fountains and into traffic.

I like that GIF Widebody posted, a woman yacking on the phone rolled off the side of a passing truck but held onto her phone.

Do you think she would notice a UFO if it landed on her?

I don't think that we should be looking for intelligent life elsewhere...may be dominant types and not be friendly.
