There main problem is that the ocean on Europa could be under as much as 100km of ice.

There's a proposal to send a probe there in 2020. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_...System_Mission

I hate to sound like a sceptic (because I totally believe in life on other planets and I've seen the famed 'three lights in a triangle formation in the sky' myself) but that one sounds like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min_Min_light ...in the outback where the ground is very flat it's quite possible that the light could look like it's 100m away when it's really light from cars/houses/towns being reflected off the atmosphere on the horizon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fata_Morgana_(mirage)

Re: UFO / abductions / conspiracy theory


hey petie!!
wow, havent heard of that before!!! Hard not to be a sceptic about these sorts of things......but that was a tale my father in law told me.......witnesses were in the hundreds though........my father in law is probably the most honest and genuine person i know....i am very much inclined to believe him...that said... everyone has their own thoughts on the matter!!!
the 3 lights i a triangle formation i believe to be military aircraft....ive seen one very near the melbourne airport(where i live)..there one minute and gone the next!!!!....the governments definately have technology we are unaware of!!!!

Re: UFO / abductions / conspiracy theory


Have you guys ever wondered why the government is supposedly hiding the truth about the aliens? Think of all the panic that knowledge would create all around the world!! To give you an example: the government admits there is intelligent life in other planets. Acording to christian religion, God created us, but who created these creatures? God? Another God? Are we just an experiment? Then all christians would panic and worry a lot. Now, think what would happen if the government admits they've been making deals with these creatures, deals that allow them to take any of us in exchange for their technology. I would preffer not to know that.

Yeah I know you hate me now I'm just giving my opinion. But remember: if we weren't curious, we wouldn't have all the technology we use nowadays.

Re: UFO / abductions / conspiracy theory


spot on mr killer!!! this is the reason i hate religion(dont shoot me)!!!! Im more worried about christians than terrorists!!!!
we as a species have the technology to not be reliant on fossil fuels!! we have free energy and the powers that be wont let that happen because there is no money to be made from free energy.....it really makes me sad to think we dont have to extract crude oil from the earth and pillage our only home.......we are a cancer of the earth!!!!
sorry to be such a kill joy.....but sometimes it really pisses me off that we can be so dumb!!!
on another note...has anyone heard of the Endgame document? also megadeths new album title.

Re: UFO / abductions / conspiracy theory


i'm going to read all these very cool posts later but for now i will post my thoughts, in brief...cuz there are a lot.

UFO - never saw one and was never interested in them. i'm sure there is other life out there...the universe never ends. i do believe the government works on things without us knowing. area 54...government situation with MANY weird things goin' on there! as i said before, a friend of mine was in the special forces, as was a friend of his. his friend was assigned to various parts of area 54. when asked if there was anything not of this earth there he said he isn't allowed to speak of it. but he did say... i'm not saying there is but i'm not saying there isn't.

Conspiracy theory - the government is behind everything to make themselves look better. my thoughts....
1 - we were never on the moon! ever seen the photos with multiple light sources! why haven't we gone back? government BS like everything else.
2- government was behind JFK
3- government was behind 911. didn't anyone see that the hole in the pentagon was way smaller than a jumbo jet's wing span? didn't you find it weird there was no wreckage in the field where the plane supposedly crashed outside of the pentagon? these are just starters. there is so much more. i believe that the government / Bush needed a reason to go to war with the middle east. they did an evil act to get the american people behind them. i have heard this from many people...in the military as well.
4-ghosts. many stories on this. i have many friends with homes that were terribly haunted. i have many cool stories...some of which i witnessed. poltergeists, moving furniture, noises, sounds, etc. i have done a lot of research on the paranormal. that reminds me...i gotta get on the ball and book my haunted ghost tours of chicago. we try to do it once each time this year.

From wikipedia:

Some conspiracy theorists have insisted that the Apollo Moon landings were a hoax. These accusations flourish in part because predictions by enthusiasts that Moon landings would become commonplace have not yet come to pass. Some claims can be empirically discredited by three retroreflector arrays left on the Moon by Apollo 11,[20] 14 and 15. With new technology, it is possible for anyone on Earth with an appropriate laser and telescope system to bounce laser beams off these devices, verifying deployment of the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment at historically documented Apollo Moon landing sites. This evidence indicates the deployment of equipment which was constructed on Earth and successfully transported to the surface of the Moon. In addition, NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, in August 2009, began to send back high resolution photos showing the Apollo landing sites.[21]

It costs a lot of money and fuel to launch a massive 50+ (or however heavy they are) ton pile of metal into space, if you haven't ever realized.

We've sent probes to mars, no reason we couldn't have sent astronauts to the moon.

Wow, this is odd to see. And it's Area 51, not 54.
