That's not true, remember that probe crashing on Mars a few years back? Just 'cause Americans measure in cm, and British in yards and whatsoever (I found this so hilarious when it got out, I laughed my ass off).

ag reed
why would lifeforms advanced enough to travel many many lightyears crash a spaceship on earth
sounds retarded
you'd assume if they could figure out how to travel all the way across galaxies and such without dying that their spaceships would be able to stay afloat and that they'd have t he technology to monitor our actions without physically touching down

I'm not saying that I think that roswell really happened, but to so ignorantly say that it isn't conceivable that aliens could wreck a UFO or that there is no way the government could, or would have motive to cover up such an event is retarded.
Being ignorant as such is just as stupid as the people who wholeheartedly believe in this shit. Please keep an open mind

However, due to the laws of nature, that we ever encounter "aliens" is highly unlikely, as it (as far as we know) is impossible to travel faster than the speed of light.
u factor in space but not time....

What do you mean? That even though they can't travel faster than the speed of light, they can reach us by traveling the same distance but at a slower speed, thus taking an insane amount of years?
Could be, we don't know.. but still very unlikely.

But last week came an astonishing new twist to the Roswell mystery.
Lt. Walter Haut was the public-relations officer at the base in 1947 and was the man who issued the original and subsequent press releases after the crash on the orders of the base commander, Col. William Blanchard.
Haut died in December 2005, but left a sworn affidavit to be opened only after his death.
Last week, the text was released. It asserts that the weather-balloon claim was a cover story and that the real object had been recovered by the military and stored in a hangar.
He described seeing not just the craft, but alien bodies.
Interesting. I don't see much motive for him to do this after his death... but who knows. How did it get released, though? I'd think the government would clamp down on it. But still, maybe it was a freakin' transformer? Megatron? If he did this just to add drama and mystery to it all, what a jokester. Government hides everything from us TT_TT Everything? I have no idea what you mean by that. In my experience they only pretend to hide things from us to stop us from getting mad.
The government hides so many things from the general public that you can't even begin to list them all. This isn't a "WOW EVIL GOVERNMENT" type post, but rather that if people knew what was going on all the time, they'd probably live in a world of fear.

Agree.
What actually is quite fascinating though is that we actually have managed to accelerate particles to 0.99c (at CERN in Geneva). But of course, these are small particles and to have a big space ship reach this speed is unthinkable.. nevertheless, even with this kind of speed, we won't get any far in space (as Boghat explains in the quotation above).

The sad thing is if intelligent space faring species are so rare in the universe as to only average one or less per galaxy we will probably never make contact with aliens let alone see them. The nearest large galaxy to us (there's closer much smaller dwarf galaxies) is 2.9 million light years away. So even if we or an alien somehow could travel at the speed of light it would still take 2.9 million years to reach another civilization (if there's only 1 per galaxy). This would be a good explanation why we've never made contact with aliens.
Hopefully intelligent life is more common than this because I'd really like to meet an alien.

actually im not that surprised that the government would cover it up. leaking unknown and unverified and unexplainable shit like this will seriously cause shit in the world, seeing as how stupid the average person is. What it would mostly do is cause a lot of cooperation to understand the technology and biology of the aliens. It would also make the sane and intelligent people more wowed at how amazing the universe is. It might cause some religious idiots to do some stupid things but it would definitely be worth it and it would get that out of the way because if aliens ever do really arrive it will happen anyway. Aliens crashing on Earth would be the biggest thing to ever happen to modern humans and understanding as much as we can about their technology and biology is extremely important. Keeping it secret is criminal to the human species. yes i agree entirely that it would serve a much better use for us to learn from them. its just that i can understand why the govt would want to keep it quiet. nevertheless the people should have the right to know =D
oh and the crashing thing. my friends dad said that we actually crash shit all the time, its just that its never communicated to the public. kinda explains why everyone goes off the chains and throws paper around when a successful rocket launch happens. btw same with airforce. lots of pilots die while training but not much coverage goes around that. so the possibility of the aliens crashing is minimal, but not impossible. i would also like to propose the idea that landing on earth may not have been part of the plan. they may very well (and i know im sounding a little sci fi here) have come and visited us several times only to observe the hostility of us as life forms without any initiatives to land. them crashing might have been any sort of error in their... um... equipment. spaceships are quite delicate arent they?
anyway would like to have this verified or if its the old man's way of saying goodbye with a bang

The fact that the aliens miscalculated some aspect of the human earth leads to the possibility that some malfunction could lead to crashing.
To all that "agreed"
If you do recall there have been ships that have been tracked down and shot at, that move at the precise moment of impact to avoid danger( 9 US fighter jets vs UFO. UFO 1-0)
Also are you saying that there is a race so perfect that nothing can be mistake? and if Earth is so "gosu" then why do we crash probes sometimes. Why do our space shuttles explode upon lift off? Why do satellites get "taken" out of orbiter w/o any knowledge of it? Why did president bush stop all fundations of SETI as soon as he was elected?
For you to be ignorant enough to say that out of 189319082389012038912890301 galaxies that there is no 1 other lifeform identical to us. You sir are a moron.

Holy shit lastshadow, your post is so garbled and all over the place. For the record we think there's around 100+ billion stars in the observable universe. And if an alien is species is going to take the immense time it takes to travel the light years between planets I guarantee you they will make sure they know exactly what their destination planet is like. They aren't going to travel 1000 light years only to be like oops the Earth isn't what we though it was like and crash. As for the rest of your post I don't know what your saying or responding to.
And it doesn't matter we crash all the time or not because like I already said our technology is a complete joke for space travel anyways. But actually if we are talking about manned space trips (which we are with Roswell) then yes we hardly ever make a mistake and crash or explode. And I enjoy astronomy and read a lot of news about it and you don't often hear about important probes sent to other parts of the solar system crashing or malfunctioning. It really doesn't happen that often.

Again your saying the aliens can be "perfect" to anymeans. And how do you know they move at light speed? From what the fight of USFJ v UFO they were moving faster than light.
And my post gave examples of how "predestinations" can go wrong.

Everyone saying "ufos" Cant crash obviosly are unaware of the universal law of "shit happens"

shit happens. then you get picked up by the local government and swept under the mattress.

Why are we all serious and all about this... Maybe they're just a bunch of teenaged aliens who wanted to mess around with us, borrowed dad's saucer, got drunk and crashed -_-
You really think they're on an "exploration mission" in the middle of fricken nowhere on earth, which is probably a planet in the middle of nowhere in their charted universe?

Alright I've had enough arguing with you idiots on this thread. Use your head before posting shit. The Earth is obviously not in the middle of nowhere because it's in a fucking galaxy. And it's obviously extremely special because it has intelligent life on it. And as for going faster than the speed of light, I won't bother arguing about that. If aliens can travel faster than the speed of life and then crash land on Earth then I'm fucking Santa Clause.
