Did Arthur C Clarke see the evidence of Aliens before he died?

Question

He had 3 wishes, 1. that Sri Lanka had peace, 2. We had cleaner energy 3. He wanted to see evidence of ExtraTerrestrials.

Answer 1

Well, no, but the guy probably knew more about extraterrestrials then anyone else in the world. He was a genius and he will be missed.

For the record, an extra-terrestrial is a life form that does not live on earth. An alien is a life form visiting earth. If we visit another planet and there are people living there, then we would be the aliens, they would be extra-terrestrials to us.

He was hoping we would find evidence that life existed on other planets or moons.

The story "2001", which points to Europa, is probably a great place to start looking, however, we have not sent probes capable of that kind of detailed exploration to Jupiters moons.

Answer 2

No but he did see into the future.

Answer 3

Dout it very much, but maybe in the afterlife...

Answer 4

He didnt need to see any evidence , he already new .

Answer 5

Unfortunately  No to all three wishes, however he did get more of his visions of the future right than he got wrong, and I don't know of anyone else brave enough to stick his neck out and predict the way that he did

Arthur C Clarke R.I.P. wherever.

Answer 6

no.

Answer 7

I don't know but he believed they were out there.  Where ever he is now I hope he is happy.  He is/was one of the most under rate  geniuses of our times,  so sad.  I hope the space elevator get built someday.  He sure got the geosynchronous satellite right.

Answer 8

Looks like he didn't see any of those, sadly.

Answer 9

Sadly, no on all 3 counts.

Answer 10

0 for 3 it seems.  Wishes don't always come true.

Answer 11

Neither Clarke, nor anyone else that I'm aware of, has seen any evidence of extra-terrestrial life.
