They might have faked the moon landing the first time. Countries were in a race to get there first, so the US sent a craft into orbit for a while and then they came back down. It was proven that there was a radiation belt between the earth and moon with too much radiation to let the first space craft pass. Also, if you watch the moon landing video, there is no stars to see in space. No stars? The moon has no atmosphere, you would be able to see stars so clearly even on a camera.
Life on mars is important because it presents the possibility that we can one day colonize mars.
2GooD, id like to see where you got your info from talking about several UFO sightings before the TV days
My thoughts on UFO's is, since Roswell, 99% of sightings are BS. Ancient times are BS cuz they believed in a whole bunch of mythological bullshit and couldve said anything.
Check out some of the Renaissance artwork, many have ufos depicted in them, not to mention many cave drawings with what look like men is space suits in them. Not to mention the documents discovered in the indus valley, where there is depictions of men flying in saucers, powered by thought.
And that is really ancient history.
Not to mention the whole story Zacharia Sitchin is supposed to have deciphered from the stone tablets found in Iraq. Not that I beleive too much of that, but when evidence piles on to more evidence it becomes a much more interesting subject.
I personally beleive mankind is an experiment undertaken by alien races and is to this very day under close scrutiny. But then Im crazy.
