Aliens exist!
 

Or, at least NASA thinks so, according to this article.

Thoughts?

Aka propaganda for more funds. Either or, it's a win-win. I don't see it happening though.

And IF there is life out there, it's best we not make contact. History shows a more advanced civilization usually takes control of the less-intelligent one.

I don't think you read the article. Lol. The positing of alien life by NASA is that of the smallest scales. Tiny, microscopic, organic microbes.

I don't really think the word ''Alien'' should be tossed around like that then. When the public thinks of Alien, they think of another form of human-life. Not microscopic organisms lol.

alien
adjective \ˈā-lē-ən, ˈāl-yən\
: not familiar or like other things you have known : different from what you are used to

Edit:

As you can see, there is no allusion to humanoid features implicit in the meaning of the term alien.

noun
1.
a foreigner, especially one who is not a naturalized citizen of the country where they are living.

Public opinion is usually dumbed down by quite a few degrees. It doesnt mean we should dumb down our language to accommodate them.

And fuck yeah its there and they better keep looking for it. We've explored the majority of the earth (not counting oceans, we should be combing those too) and we are discoverers by nature. Looking upward is the next logical step.

I doubt thats all nasa knows... if so they are SOOO far behind.

Compared to who? The nut jobs on the conspiracy theory websites you frequent?

Lmao, this ^ But I do think they know something the public probably isn't ready to hear. Think about it, this could debunk all religions and that could cause a MASSIVE problem.
