Or when the sun becomes a red giant and engulfes the earth, we could all be on other planets.

[QUOTE=Spyder638]Over population.[/QUOTE] what I can assure you there are better options for solving that problem other than off-world colonization. Hell, living in huge bubble fortresses in the ocean is more plausible than living on other planets.

[QUOTE=exavior_8]Didn't it also happen at the area of Cthulhu's underwater city?[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's really bizarre. Makes ya think.

[QUOTE=Spyder638]I'm off to mars mate, see you in pluto tomarrow. -Arrives at pluto..- Fuck, I forgot to say where at in pluto, damn space travel.[/QUOTE] Why go all the way to pluto? The moon is right there for the taking. All the dust you can eat.

[QUOTE=nunu]We need space travel to survive.[/QUOTE] I agree. If we spread off world, we can survive in groups of large populations. Say... if one group became extinct, there would always be another group remaining somewhere in space.

Awesome thread is awesome. Already knew about all this (minus the number stations which I've now taken a great fascination to in the last hour or so), still neat though. Fuck, I want to decode that recording of that number station... but it'd probably take months or years :(

Not sure if anyone posted anything else about Tunguska since it was first brought up, but the most plausible explanation I've heard for it was that it was a comet that detonated in mid-air. Kinda like how air-bursting nuclear detonations are just as effective, if not more so, than ground detonations, a comet that disintegrated a mile or so above the surface would still do a shit-ton of damage on the ground, as well as produce one hell of a shock-wave. At least, that's what Carl Sagan had to say about it... but I'm willing to place my money on his hypothesis more so than any other I've heard. [b]Edit:[/b] Also, a comet comprised mostly of ices and organic materials wouldn't leave much in the way of fragments in the swamps below. It'd all have been vaporized by the heat of atmospheric entry and the detonation. You probably could detect some sort of atmospheric pressure fluctuation, however, if such records were available.

How about The Battle of LA? IT WAS NOTHING BUT A WEATHER BALLOON SHROUDED IN SWAMP GAS! NOTHING TO SEE HERE, FOLKS! GO HOME!

And the Hum... [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum[/url] Does anyone hear that??

[QUOTE=sltlamina]How about The Battle of LA? IT WAS NOTHING BUT A WEATHER BALLOON SHROUDED IN SWAMP GAS! NOTHING TO SEE HERE, FOLKS! GO HOME![/QUOTE] I agree, UFO coverups are pathetic. Also, what's the 'swamp gas' thing? I know the weather bloon bullshit. Also, to justify the coverup, why would they keep Area 51 heavily guarded? Not to mention, it's the only shoot-on-site place in the US, well, apart from a few others perhaps. The US government is also highly protective over access to files in relation to UFO incidents.

The bloop just sounds like a bubble to me. :downs:

What do you mean bloop is unsolved? It's so obviously Cthulhu, snoring in his underwater tomb at R'lyeh. [img]http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/300/cthulhu3ey1.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=FoxPieV2][img]http://www.builtreport.com/megalodon.jpg[/img] Megalodon, giant prehistoric shark that's like 10 times larger than a great white or something quite a few people believe it's still alive today in deep waters, but if it was then we'd all be fucked. Those things are like over 20 meters long[/QUOTE] Yeah we'd all be fucked. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nzd0R_OeOc[/media]

Do you guys watch TV at all? The Tunguska Event was all over the Discovery channel a few days ago. One documentary was like 3 hours long. Several groups of researchers proved that the Tunguska Event was almost certainly a meteor impact that exploded upon entering the Earth's atmosphere. The reason why they didn't find any metallic evidence was because the meteor FUCKING EXPLODED WITH THE FORCE OF 1000 HIROSHIMA BOMBS SEVERAL MILES ABOVE GROUND LEVEL. If any metal wasn't completely vaporized, then the microscopic remnants would be left scattered over hundreds of miles. [i] It would be like looking for a needle on Jupiter with a telescope. [/i] As one of them stated. Plus, those remnants would be located at the bottom of a gigantic lake of mud. Have fun looking for microscopic metal fragments in a few million tons of mud.

That's just not plausible. Not plausible at all. :3:

The most famous ghost picture in the world :tinfoil: [IMG]http://c.imagehost.org/0030/ghost.jpg[/IMG] This is the story behind it. [quote] [b]Brown Lady [/b] Considered by some to prove once and for all that Ghosts exist beyond reasonable doubt, The "Brown Lady" photograph is one of the most famous Ghost photographs ever taken. Seen in the photograph as floating effortlessly up a flight of stairs, The "Brown Lady" as it is referred to, has been sighted by dozens of people in Raynim Hall (Norfolk) as long ago as 1835. The Ghost is allegedly that of a woman who used to live in Raynim hall before she died, Lady Dorothy Townshend. In one incident, Captain Frederick Marryat encountered the Ghost along with two nephews of Lord Charles Townshend. They came face to face with the 'Brown Lady' in a corridor, and raising his pistol, the Caption fired at it at point blank range. The bullet passed straight through and was found lodged the door which was directly behind where the Ghost had been seen. The famous photograph was taken in 1936, by Indra Shira, a hired photographer who had been brought in to photograph the mansion's interior. Shira was photographing the stairs when he witnessed a vapourous form take shape on the staircase. Upon taking the form of a woman in white, the Apparition slowly descended the stairs. Shira's assistant who was with him at the time failed to see the Apparition, but snapped a photograph in the direction Shira was pointing. It is widely believed that the photograph is genuine, and is one of the most convincing Ghost photographs ever taken.[/quote]

Those recording of the numbers really creeped me out, the woman sounds so calm it's just weird

I do believe it was something like microsoft sam no?

There I have an other funny one :v: [b]The Dover Demon[/b] [quote]Name given to a bizarre 'creature' witnessed by several people in Dover, in April 1977. The first sighting occurred late one night as 3 17-year-olds drove home through the Boston suburbs of the Dover area. The driver, Bill Bartlett, reported seeing what at first he thought was a dog or cat, but a few seconds later saw to be a completely unearthly looking creature. In amazement, Bartlett watched the animal, which he reported had a large melon-shaped head with 2 very distinct red eyes. It's body was thin and spindly, and completely hairless. It had long, thin toes and fingers, and seemed to be using them to grasp onto the pavement. A few hours later, and over a mile away, John Baxter was walking home when he met the same creature walking along a path.The next day, Abby Brabham noted a similar looking creature on the side of the road as she drove past.[/quote] [IMG]http://c.imagehost.org/0847/dover-demon.jpg[/IMG] This was drawn by the guy who saw the demon thingy. Looks harmless to me :excited:

This thread reminds of a bit from 'Waiting for God', a Red Dwarf Episode. [QUOTE=Red Dwarf]RIMMER: Are you awake? LISTER: Yeah, yeah. RIMMER: Yeah, I couldn't sleep either. The excitement! LISTER: What excitement? RIMMER: The alien excitement! LISTER: Rimmer, it's garbage. RIMMER: You can scoff, Lister. That's nothing new. They laughed at Galileo. They laughed at Edison. They laughed at Columbo. LISTER: Who's Columbo? RIMMER: The man with the dirty mac who discovered America. LISTER: What makes you think these aliens exist? RIMMER: They must do, Lister! There's so many things that are strange and odd. So many things we don't have any explanation for. LISTER: Like, um, why do intelligent people buy cinema hot dogs? Do you mean that sort of weird and mysterious thing? RIMMER: No, Lister, I mean like the pyramids. How did they move such massive pieces of stone without the aid of modern technology? LISTER: They had massive whips, Rimmer. Massive, massive whips. RIMMER: All right, then, the Bermuda Triangle. Go on, explain that one. You know all the answers. LISTER: No, I agree there. That is a genuine mystery. How did a song like that ever become a hit? It defies all reason. RIMMER: I just don't know why I bother. I'd get more sense out of a squashed hedgehog. Lister, don't you ever stop and wonder: why are we here? What's the grand purpose? LISTER: Why does it have to be such a big deal? Why can't it be like, like, human beings are a planetary disease? Like the Earth's got German measles or facial herpes, right? And that's why all of the other planets give us such a wide berth. It's like, "Oh, don't go near Earth! It's got human beings on it, they're contagious!" RIMMER: So you're saying, Lister, you're an intergalactic, pus-filled cold sore! At last, Lister, we agree on something. LISTER: What do you believe in, then? Do you believe in God? RIMMER: God? Certainly not! What a preposterous thought! I believe in aliens, Lister. LISTER: Oh, right, fine. Something sensible at last.[/QUOTE]

It sounds like the humming of a rather gigantic machine. :raise:

[QUOTE=SeasonedHerb]No, no way it could be that they are developing new weapon systems, or new war vehicles. That's just not plausible. Not plausible at all. :3:[/QUOTE] Perhaps, but why? I mean, once humanity matures, which may be in a few short years, they won't require super high powered weapons to eliminate themselves. To be honest, the NWO - new world order - one world government, scheme seems a logical procedure to me. Why? It'll prevent continental wars from occuring, as the world would act as a whole organism, rather than featuring independent countries scattered throughout the world (I.e. Russia, China, Iraq, UK, US, etc). A one world government could unite peach throughout the entire world. It could also motivate a higher commitment of the human population, thus; bringing ourselves to a higher level of technological advance, in which case, that would include; the development of articial intelligence, space travel, collonisation and exploration and an improved method for communication between each and every individual throughout the world. They've already developed the internet, in which case, it has led to the likes of me, you and everyone else sharing ideas as such, such as; the one I'm sharing now, to each other. If world peace is united, I don't believe we'd require advanced weapon systems to participate against ourselves - a civil war, as we are one as a whole; humanity. A conclusion may be for defence against extra terrestrial species? Perhaps, but I doubt they'd [b]create weaponary as such without proof of existence[/b]. Now, perhaps they just don't want the general public to known of a presence of E.T observants. Why? Well, the protection of the data seems logical. If you were to release full legitimate proof of E.T observants to the entire world - the human population as a majority or a whole, you would expect to see many of which who believe they're a treat. Those who have watched too many alien films, believing they're a threat to them, their family and humanity as a whole. The issue with their judgement? Well, they may commit agression against a form of E.T observants, in which case, it may lead to a war. Personally, I believe they'd be both; intellectually and technologically superior to our standards of life. If they've featured the capability to travel throughout space, to reach us and to observe ourselves, as well as to commit limited exposure, then I'm sure they've progress throughout life much further than the likes of ourselves - we. Throughout their progress, I'm sure they've developed defense weaponary, as they inevitably would have discovered a form of E.T life with a similar intellectual capacity as themselves, perhaps even equivilent or higher. There's a lot more to it, but I won't squeeze it all in one post. I do believe the data is protected to prevent the occurrence of inappropriate response from the human population. Perhaps it'll all be released when we've matured.
