Do you see Aliens?

Lots of people have asked me this question when they see my scope.
Does everyone get asked the same?
I think the general public accept we are not alone....

From time to time the question is asked ....but once you explain light speed, just how far away other stars are & the like.
Most people are a little more sceptical of alians visiting earth !
Funny how reports of Alien visits are not usually made by Amateur astronomers the people who spend more time looking at the night sky (where aliens come from !) that just about the rest of the population combined
The question of wheather we are alone in the Universe is a different matter & can not be so easily dismissed.

Don't think I could sit through every episode of DS9 again. There were a couple of good ones, but I'd rather watch TOS.

Um.. the aliens. Probably already been here but found no intelligent life on Earth so went away again.
