Yeah,Well .... I saw Elvis in the Macca's Drive Thru' yesterday and someone said he had left the Building .....!! :D

[ChrisD]

It is all true... Big Foot told me.

:rofl:

Yea I too saw that on the news, what next :screwy::screwy::screwy:

Leon :thumbsup:

Wow!! The King (the real one; not Wally) can be in 2 places at once?? Could have sworn I saw him walk out of a 7 Eleven.

Is it me, or are these things a dead ringer of the alien from the movie ET?

Maybe they were prepping us in the 80's for this! ;)

There's also been mention that the remains have been carbon dated as 1000 years old as if that was of great significance.

If the UAP's truly were ET's, and I haven't bought into any of this from the beginning, any carbon date is meaningless.

Carbon 14 is produced by collisions of neutrons with atmospheric nitrogen. A proton is displaced yielding C14. Cosmic rays spallation produces thermal neutrons in the upper atmosphere which in turn produce 14C from 14N. Carbon dating relies in part upon knowing the cosmic ray flux and in turn, the production rate of 14C through time.

For living things on Earth, this was calibrated by taking very old trees, counting annual growth tree rings and carbon dating samples from those same rings to produce what's called the carbon 14 calibration curve. It's not a straight line.
https://www.sciencelearn.org.nz/images/5092-calibration-curves

For materials older than the oldest tree rings, the carbon dating was correlated against other older things such as annual growth layers in corals or precipitation bands in speleothems and by comparing other radiogenic methods such as Uranium Thorium decay series dating. Carbon dating only works back to about 40000-60000 years by which point the radioactive decay mans the levels are so low they often can't be separated from background levels. Over the past 30 years, old fashioned 14C dating by radiation counting has been replaced by a more sensitive technique called accelerator mass spectrometry. This has extended the working range from the old 30000-40000 years, to 50000-60000 years.

So what does this have to do with the price of eggs?

If the critter really was ET, we have no way of calibrating production rates, no way of knowing abundances, it's metabolism, and no modern standard against which to measure. Consequently, any dating is just a number without meaning. Apparently, the UFO enthusiast sent it to a university lab, paid a fee but didn't tell them what he thought it was. They assumed it was terrestrial and treated it as such.

But outside all of this, we all know the distances involved. The magical star drives in science fiction movies are just that. The travel times involved are enormous, effectively one way trips. If they spent thousands of years in space, why would they just play tag and run with our military jets and abduct cattle ranchers in Nebraska?

My vote is with science, not fiction.

Thanks for the info Joe, interesting stuff.



Are you saying the line is gay? :)



I completely agree.

These Peruvian aliens were debunked 2 years ago. All that was needed was an x-ray. https://youtu.be/-DmDHF6jN9A?t=414

That right there ...ETS little bro.. truth

[Shasta55]

I agree entirely with your position on these "alien babies."


FTL or near FTL travel is subject to physics as currently understood. There far too many unknowns or "not yet understoods" to rule it completely out. So my vote is with the continuous evolution of science.
