Why do UFO, ALIENS never come down and greet us?

Question

If it is true that Aliens exist, i believe they do, then why do they just show off with there light display, surely if they can reveal themselves in the air, they must know we are aware of there presence, so why don't they come down and communicate somehow, are they frightened, or do they NOT want to frighten us.

Answer 1

Well, i sure hope there is intelligent life out there coz there is bugger all down here on earth !!

Answer 2

what is the actual reality behind UFO

why d**n this is taught in our lessons too during education?

UFO's reality is answered in this link below:

Answer 3

In addition to what Geoff G stated, which was correct and well put, does it occur to anybody that the "light displays" people see in the sky and call "aliens" or "alien spacecraft" could very probably be space junk falling to earth?  

At the end of 2006 there were 9,949 pieces of junk and debris in orbit around earth, and that's before the chinese blew up one of their old weather satellites, which added over 2,000 more pieces of space junk to the mess floating around up there.  

On average, about 1 piece of this junk falls to earth each day.  Most of it burns up in the atmosphere but some hits the ground.  

But, that aside ...  

... if life does exist elsewhere (and odds are it probably does) and if it's advanced enough to come hover in our skies, why on earth would it want to contact us?  We're a barely civilized, warring species.

Answer 4

You believe they exist, but that doesn't mean that they do exist.

Perhaps they don't come down to meet us because they aren't really there.

The lights and all the UFO stuff may be just what the rational thinkers say it is - hoaxes, misidentifications, or just outright lies.

Answer 5

They're not stupid. Humans beings are exceedingly primitive and  very dangerous - they watch us with amusement from a far - best not get too close.

Answer 6

UFOs (unidentified flying objects) are mainly unidentified because the observer lacks the astronomical or meteorological knowledge to identify them. That's why you never hear about UFOs observed by astronomers or meteorologists; they're only reported by people who are unfamiliar with what can be seen in the sky. I've been an amateur astronomer for over fifty years, and have never seen anything in the sky that I haven't been able to identify. UFOs are NOT alien spaceships!

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 because no real alien has ever visited the Earth..

Answer 7

Because they're anti-social dickheads.

Answer 8

they think we are morons for treating our planet like we do so they leave and don't interact with us.

Answer 9

maybe the only people the Aliens feel un-threatened by are the ones we call "crazy" so when the "crazies" tell us about the aliens that are sending them messages through TV or whatever, we lock them into a mental ward

so, the aliens don't want to get locked into mental wards - so maybe they stay the heck away from us?

or maybe they're coming on 12-12-2012

Answer 10

The most reasonable answer I have ever heard to this question was that, "Aliens see us as we see animals in a zoo." Have you ever seen in shows like Crocodile Hunter that the last thing people want to do is be seen by the animals they are watching, because if the animals see them, they will run off scarred. I believe the same principals apply to aliens, they want to watch us without us knowing, because if we see them , we'll run off scared.

Answer 11

Reading these responses, and the question itself, made me kind of sad. It appears many people have lost the ability to reason and think critically. Now I respect everyone's opinion, and some of these responses seem heartfelt and reasoned out , to a degree, but I have to assume most of these people are very young, for they certainly do not understand the history of UFOs. Nor do they have a comprehensive view of the current situation regarding aliens and UFOs worldwide. At least the Asker of this question believes that aliens exist. That's a good place to start.

Is it worth it, to waste these keystrokes on minds not ready to listen? On people who will view what I say as adversarial, at best, simply because it conflicts with their current level of understanding? Most of you will react with a touch of hostility, as if the alien situation were a spitting contest, That isn't the case. Well, hope springs eternal, and I'm bored and wide awake, so I will share a little of what I know. Feel free to completely disregard what I say, but do so at your own risk, and at the risk of having to learn all this later, when it can no longer be contested.

Think about it this way, even if you've denied aliens for years, there is  still time to get in on it, stay ahead of the crowd and be the first 'cool dude' in your neighborhood to the score! Shock and amaze your jaded friends! Confuse parishioners! Scare your family! Amuse pseudo-intellectuals! Learn the time-honored technique of questioning the official story! Ready? Let's go!

Okay. First, people fall into one of three categories; people who think aliens are NOT here, people who think aliens ARE here, and third, people who KNOW aliens are here. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh, but it is the reality. I respect everyone's opinion, especially those who have come to the conclusion that aliens are here without having a personal experience,  for in truth, were I not in the third category, I'm not certain I would have looked into ufos deeply enough to be convinced they are real. So, I can respect the other side too. But they're incorrect.

Theres not space enough to describe how I know aliens are here, it is rather involved and now I'm starting to run late, but I will tell you that I have known aliens are a fact, through first hand experience, since 1968. Flying saucers, as cliche as the notion sounds, are completely real. Just like a 1950s version, outer rotating section, inner section rotating at a different speed, absolutely right on the money. forget that George Lucas c**p; intricate and spired appendages, antennae, spires, etc, the alien saucer is simple, elegant, elemental shapes. The other major types of alien ships are the triangle, the cylinder, the sphere, ovoid. Very simple shapes, seamless hulls of metallic grey, sometimes dark charcoal grey, others chrome-bright. The lights, however are far from simple, amazingly bright and intense, hues richer than any you've seen before, spines if light like a ferris wheel, recessed lights searching and casting across the ground, some craft so brilliant the appear lit from within, cycling through every hue of the spectrum in seconds, in patterns. And these craft are silent, a low flying triangle is so silent you can hear only the mechanism of the rotating lights.

Getting late, gotta go for now, lets call this part one, will finish with part two later today. END PART I

PART II

Brian Zeiler writes about the logical trickery of the UFO skeptics. " Skeptics in the scientific community resist the evidence for extraterrestrial visitation because of the implications it raises and because of the questions it begs. But should the integrity of the determination rely on the implications of a positive classification? Or should the classification of true or false be assessed in isolation of the implications? Which is worse -- a false positive, meaning ruling in favor of the UFO as a unique phenomenon when in fact it does not exist, or a false negative, meaning ruling against it and missing out on its true existence?

The answer, of course, lies in the incentive structure of the analyst. An equally intelligent non-scientist has no incentive nor predisposition to favor one type of error over the other, but scientists do. For scientists, it would open a whole new confounding problem domain, and it would make them look incompetent in the public's eyes for missing out on this fact for 50 years. That's why the incentive structure of contemporary scientists is such that they will not accept alien visitation unless they must, which would be when they get irrefutable physical proof. Their incentive structure prohibits them from making any such inference unless it is unavoidable, and they will strain the boundaries of logic and reason to no end to dismiss all evidence other than physical proof, no matter how powerful it may be. This scientific predisposition toward disbelief, rooted not in science and logic but rather in dogma and paradigm, brings us to the logical trickery of the scientific UFO debunker.

What Exactly is "Extraordinary"?

First, the scientific debunker will say that because alien visitation is an extraordinary claim, it thus demands extraordinary proof. Therefore, no evidence is suggestive of alien visitation unless it is accompanied by irrefutable physical proof -- even if the observations directly indicate, within normal scientific evidential standards, the presence of a solid object under intelligent control with propulsion technology beyond human understanding. No matter how directly the observations indicate an anomalous vehicle of nonhuman origin, skeptics maintain that a prosaic explanation must be adopted unless physical proof is obtained. But such a stance, rigid beyond the normal standards of scientific methodology, is a direct product of the incentive structure, not of logic, as indicated above. Normal standards of science would require meeting the evidential threshold for each of the above conditions necessary to establish extraterrestrial origin; yet the same degree of evidence for physical substance is rejected for anomalous vehicles when it would otherwise be accepted for observations of more conventional vehicles.

Thus, the debunkers have failed to define the boundary of extraordinariness, which renders the declaration logically specious due to its wholly arbitrary implementation that is easily contaminated by individual and collective incentives. They exploit the arbitrary classification of "extraordinary" by applying absurdly rigid evidential boundaries to cases that clearly feature anomalous, physical vehicles that humans could not have built. Instead of assessing the case for physical substance on its own merits with the radar-visual observations, they merely apply a priori probabilities of nearly zero to the detection of anomalous vehicles, with no logical defensibility in the face of insufficient information to estimate the a priori probability, and therefore give themselves license to reject all evidence of any quality unless a physical specimen is obtained.

For instance, if SETI receives an anomalous repeating signal with intelligent content such as a mathemtical constant, and rules out all known causes of terrestrial and deep-space interference, do they need a chunk of the alien radio dish or a dead alien to attribute it to alien origin? It would be just as easy to apply UFO-skeptic logic and insist that the signal is nothing more than anomalous until we obtain physical proof of aliens; after all, why ascribe a radio signal to alien origin before we have physical proof of the existence of aliens? After all, we cannot rule out malfunction, fraud, or human error with 100% certainty, so the simplest explanation is an undetected flaw, not an alien message. Right?

Or is it really just the case that the a priori probability assumed by scientists of alien radio detection is higher than that assumed for atmospheric detection? Is this a priori probability differential between radio versus atmospheric detection logically defensible? Or do we lack sufficient information to make anything but a wild guess, a guess contaminated by incentive, dogma, and mere habit? Why do so many scientists, including Tipler and Fermi, argue that interstellar travel would be feasible for advanced civilizations whose productivity growth has created such vast wealth that journeys are less expensive than they would be for us humans?

Do we know what alien energy resource stocks are? Even right now, we have the technology

to mount a journey at 10% of the speed of light and arrive at the nearest star in 40 years. How "extraordinary" is it to consider that, several billion years ago, one culture might have mounted

a gradual expedition that took them to our solar system and many others? We sure don't know whether this is "extraordinary" or the natural outcome of technological advancement, but many scientists wish to believe, simply due to heavily entrenched ideologies with absolutely no basis in logic nor fact, that such interstellar expansions are far less likely than the human interception of alien radio signals.

So just what is "extraordinary", aside from a word referring to a claim for which extremely low

a priori probabilities of truth are applied? I consider extraordinary a claim which undermines fundamental precepts of physics. Alien visitation does not do this. And no matter the difficulty

as we perceive it, interstellar travel does not violate the laws of physics. Neither do aliens.

Therefore, alien visitation does not violate the laws of physics, and nor does it require a straining of credible probabilistic expectations. We simply don't know how likely it is. And that is hardly a strong case for considering alien visitation an "extraordinary claim."

Nevertheless, skeptic

Answer 12

Assuming there is other intelligent life out there (probably is but no one knows for sure) you are also assuming they are visiting our planet (much bigger leap of logic).

If they are visiting our planet why would they want to make contact?  Not likely we have anything to offer them.  They also may feel we are not ready as a society to deal with it and would mess us up worse if they did.  Chances are better, rather than stopping by to say "hi" just cuz they would want to study us and watch us develop without interference.

Answer 13

Before the space age, lots of stupid people reported seeing fairies, goblins, “the little people”.  Space aliens are simply a modern replacement for people’s fantasies.

I bet 100 years ago, people like you asked “why don’t the fairies try to communicate with us?”.

Can you understand how stupid that is?  Can you understand how stupid is to make a whole culture out of something that has no scientific basis at all?  Great for novels and movies, but no place here talking about real astronomy.

Please, people go look around the world and the universe at real wonders.  There’s plenty of them to last a thousand lifetimes.

Answer 14

They may be afraid that we would percieve them as hostile (which we probably would) and shoot them down.

Answer 15

Assuming they are real which I have no problem with:  

1.  They may not care what we think.

2.  We may be dangerous, being equipped with rifles and other devices.

3.  They may be trying to remain biologically isolated to protect us or them.

4.  They may have but any information may not have been released for political reasons.

Answer 16

Well, they do come down sometimes and take our cows and impregnate our women.

Answer 17

How do you know that they are NOT communicating with various governments on Earth? It is in the best interest of all governments to keep this kind of thing secret. Life on other planets might destroy the Christian beliefs because aliens from other planets are not mentioned in the Bible. There is also the risk of mass pandamonium, rioting, chaos and civil unrest. Heyyyy...we have ALL seen the movie Independence Day, right???

WAYYYY TOO MANY people have also seen them or photographed them. Some of us call these people "Kooks", but think about this:

You can call them KOOKS all you want to....but when these "Kooks" show up in the emergency room and other medical research centers claiming that they have Alien Implanted devices inside of them, it's time to sit up start taking these claims SERIOUSLYYYYY.

Since the 1980's HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE have had electronic "objects" surgically removed from their bodies. Many are implanted in the arm, shoulder or foot. Some of these objects are on display in a museum in California. Some of them have been turned over to government research centers. These objects have been carefully studied under the electron microscope and determines to be transmitter devices which might have the capability to transmit signals so that they can be located by extra-terrestrial life forms. These devices are made using what we know as "nano technology" ...meaning they are MUCH too small to have been produced using present day human technology as we know it. These are transmitters no bigger than the size of a BB or a ladybug. Not suprisingly.....MANYYYY of these same people have reported being abducted numerous times and have had medical "experiments" conducted on them. Numerous women also have microscopic scars on their abdomens and have had eggs removed from them. Numerous men have had sperm samples surgically removed.

The US Military has in it's possession no fewer than 6 UFO alien flying crafts or UFO's which have been recovered in tact or destroyed since 1947. These cases are fairly well documented, even though the government has gone to GREAT LENGHTS to discredit these stories by providing "dis-information". The Canadian government also has possession of aliens UFO's.

You can come up with a hundred LAME EXCUSES for how or why you think UFO's and extra-terrestrials are fake.....but medical researchers, eye witnesses and American scientist are baffled.

Crack a book at the library or do a Google search using the words "Alien Implants" if you don't believe me. Then be afraid. Be veryyyyy afraid.

Answer 18

that's a very good question.  but then again, who's to say that aliens are these strange looking advanced creatures that are more superior than us?  no one truly knows exactly. people usually get the impression of aliens as "far more futuristic" from sci fi novels and movies.  Also, many humans are afraid to learn about other lifeforms due to the fact that we are afraid of things we don't know too much about. (ex.ghosts)  Overall, I believe we are not soley the only somewhat advanced life form in this universe but I'm not too sure about the whole UFO and other nonsense the media attempts to glue into our minds.

Answer 19

you gotta be a star trek nerd right- duh prime directive... lol

truthfully though i don't believe UFOs are aliens i mean if they really have that sort of technology then they have the technology to not be seen, to observe from farther away, or to fit in like they belong.  I am not saying i don't believe there isn't other life i mean  as a planet that would make us somewhat narcissistic and mathematically it would be pretty dumb because there are how many stars with how many planets out there? i just dont really believe that aliens would be at all like our human brains imagine they are.

Answer 20

Sad to say but I am afraid that we are primitive and boring.
