Are aliens real ?

Question

Are aliens real ?

Answer 1

My lover Miyuki and her friends Yuki and Kumiko are aliens, i.e citizens of Japan. The only aliens who have ever really been here are from other nations on Earth. If any creatures live on other planets, these planets are far too distant for these life forms to come here. It is a recent cliche that life must exist elsewhere in this vast universe, but that is not certain at all. It seems likely to me, but I would not bet on it the way i bet $1000 that 12/21/12 is not doomsday.

Answer 2

yeah from texas to calf it full on aliens  and there  millions wanting to come here too

Answer 3

i believe they are real

but i dont see them as a weird looking creature that plans to blow up earth.

they may be just like us. but possibly we will never know, unless technology improves which i doubt enough to get us in light years speed.

Answer 4

Despite your years of conditioning, there is NO PROOF of aliens.

Answer 5

In a way that question is almost as null and void as "Does God exists"

The difference however, is that the existence of aliens is well

within physical possibility. However, while we do know that there are no aliens in our immediate vecinity (i.e. out solar system).

We do not know what exists elsewhere.

And like the existence of God, the existence of aliens is (so far) impossible to prove.

Answer 6

yes!

the universe is huge! which means there's plenty of stars out their with planets. theirs so many stars that theirs a big chance aliens do exist.

Answer 7

Although life almost certainly exists elsewhere in the universe, the immense distances between stars makes interstellar travel practically impossible. No scientist has ever been able to examine a real alien, so all descriptions are nothing but fantasy.

Answer 8

Yes

Answer 9

I can't answer one way or another. I believe they are real, because it would be arrogant of us humans to assume we are all alone in this huge universe. But obviously any real evidence is yet to be found. So can't give a yes or no answer.

Answer 11

Scientists and astronomers believe there could be other life existence in the universe. I think there is. Think about the whole galaxy, how gigantic it is. In the whole universe there is trillions, even more, galaxies. In each and every one of those galaxies there is billions of planets. So, there has to be something out there, you know.

Answer 12

sure there are Aliens. iam one of them,

Answer 13

You'll probably have to be more explicit in your question in order to get an answer that's meaningful to you.  "Aliens" and "real" mean too many things when put together.

What most people seem to mean on Y!A when they ask this question is whether the various claims of space alien visitation and involvement in human affairs are credible.  The short answer is that there isn't any evidence we've been or are being visited by intelligent non-Earth beings.

But obviously lots of things such as UFO reports are attributed to that explanation.  Yes, people are seeing things in the sky (and, frankly, elsewhere) that they can't identify, and that others can't help them identify.  Scientifically that doesn't let us immediately leap to the conclusion that we're being visited by aliens.  Other phenomena such as alien implantation, alien abduction, mind control, and livestock mutilation are also attributed to the work of aliens.  But again there's no evidence that space aliens are what's causing it.

The arguments these claimants put forward are generally indirect arguments.  That is, instead of trying to prove that a certain thing is the cause, they try to prove that all other things they can think of CANNOT be the cause, and therefore by some imaginary default it "must" be space aliens.  You really can't do that and be scientific.  Those are easy arguments to construct and easy to believe, but they really crumble when you think about it.

Because no one is sure what a space alien can look like or what it can do, saying that something which seems fantastic "must" be the work of aliens has a sort of attractive ring to it.  "I felt like I was levitating right out my window!"  Pretty fantastic observation.  "How do you know aliens can do that?"  A reasonable question.  "Well, how do you know they CAN'T; they probably have lots of technology that would seem like magic to us."

And that's where you get into trouble.  When you hypothetically define the properties of aliens as that which is exactly necessary to fit the observations -- no matter how wonky they seem -- then it's what we call an "appeal to magic."  It's the logical equivalent of the old trick of shooting the arrow first and then drawing a bullseye around it.  In more formal terms, it's circular reasoning.  It's an insidious form of logical fallacy; but it's also why scientists don't generally take UFO enthusiasts seriously.

The upshot is that if you want to attribute sightings or other odd occurrences to space aliens, you first have to know that space aliens exist and that they have properties you can know ahead of time before trying to test whether something could be caused by them.  Otherwise you're just spackling conjecture around your desired outcome.

Are the observations real?  For the most part, yes.  There are always some hoaxers, but you can't dismiss observations as hoaxes or hallucinations if there's nothing to suggest that, or if there's physical or corroborating evidence.  People DO see things in the sky.  They DO have legitimate feelings that they've been abducted.  They DO find odd things embedded in their skin.  Cows DO get their lips ripped off.  Skeptics don't deny that these things occur, but they don't agree that attributing them to space aliens is justified by the evidence.
