I sometimes wonder what humans a thousand years from now will make of our giant hydro electric dams. How could we move & carve such giant rocks with our primitive technology? Rock of a type which doesn't appear in large blocks anywhere else, though thin veins appear through the surrounding area. And the one guy that suggests that some form of 'artificial rock' was used will probably get ostracized for putting forth such a screwball theory.

You know DG, it's funny you brought up this site:

http://ancientaliensdebunked.com/


Every time I came across an ancient aliens episode I would always think to myself, "hmm how in the world can they be sooooo sure about some of the scenarios they're proposing?". Well, thanks for the link.

I think some of the most credible evidence is from a bunch of our own Apollo astronauts and the others. There are several that have very detailed accounts of seeing alien spacecraft, not just on their space missions either. Mercury astronaut Gordo Cooper tells a story of one landing at Edwards Air Force Base, he filmed it and sent the film to DC. There are several accounts including Buzz Aldrin talking about one that shadowed them on Apollo 11, man's first moon landing mission. I have had one encounter that I'll never forget. So as for me I'm 100% sure they exist. As others have said its kind of crazy to add up the percentages and not think they don't exist. There are millions of other planets and solar systems, to suppose we are the only life out there is kind of crazy IMO.

They better be cold bro!


On a related note: if anyone is on the East Coast, you might wanna check out NASA's launch tonight. You should be able to see it fairly well if the skies are clear. Check out the chart to see when it's above your horizon.
