. . . No Evidence Yet

“The U.S. government has no evidence that any life exists outside our planet, or that an extraterrestrial presence has contacted or engaged any member of the human race. In addition, there is no credible information to suggest that any evidence is being hidden from the public's eye.
However, that doesn't mean the subject of life outside our planet isn't being discussed or explored ...”

wrote space policy expert Phil Larson, of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Good to know that they're on top of it.

Re: ... No Evidence Yet

I am rather curious to see what the response will be if any of these petitions make it to the threshold (links go to whitehouse.gov)...
https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petition...ition/gCZfn86x
or
https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petition...ening/grQ9mNkN
or maybe
https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petition...lying/rXD9PcVs

The responses to date are not exactly confidence-inspiring.... although they do make for some good snark from the politcally- and technically-savvy crowds.

Re: ... No Evidence Yet

I never saw the petition site. Some of them are a bit rediculous.

Re: ... No Evidence Yet

It's not aliens we need to worry about, it Hoodoo's. You know, those strange animals that will shut off your shore power or pull your plug in the night. If the government can find the Hoodoo's we will all be better off.

Re: ... No Evidence Yet

DOJ, you still have to ground your overhead otherwise it works as a brainwave radiator which the aliens can read.

As often as aliens supposedly visit I would think there would be hard physical evidence by now.
