Yes i have seen loads. There is a cape town ufo group. This chick filmed this from hout bay. Looks like crap though because it's cellphone, not a proper camera

See how the two bold items clash? So often the case when proof is requested, yes there's lots of proof but this example is a krappy one :-/

Rather don't explain then. But the regular theory I hear is radiation interfering with photography... maybe, who knows.
 
We are alone, and if there is life out there, they're alone too.

Space is so big that the word "slim" grossly exaggerates our chances of ever finding any form of intelligent life.

Perhaps when/if we are able to travel faster than light, like 100 times faster than light, then the chances of us finding life can be accurately be described as slim.

Says the guy called "Mars"................ :-o

But maybe, just maybe, another science like wormhole surfin' has been discovered by those more advanced than us. Maybe?

The funny thing here is that, being Slaapstad and all, the area is, monitored for radiation because of Koeberg.
Any radiation out there is going to trigger alarms, you can be sure of that.

And yet, neither my family have said the alarms went off, nor did they when I lived in CT.

So once again, the ufo people seeking attention here because they're not getting it elsewhere. I suspect this could be due to all the changes on Twatter

Wrong.
Dozens of highly credentialed scientists have had ufo experiences.
I see ufos on average twice a week and document them with photographic proof.
I guess that makes me one of your "crazy, delusional drug-addict, schizophrenic type", huh?
LOL
The CIA had a whole campaign to discredit ufo witnesses and generate the very stigma that you now hold against such people. Well i guess you fell for the propaganda then.
You're also wrong that 'conditions outside our solar system do not favour life"
Proxima centauri is a mere 4.2 light years away from earth. A south african woman named Elizabeth Klarer wrote an entire book of her experiences with them - "Beyond the light barrier".
And yes, they do use faster than light travel.
Which scientist are you referencing who says ftl travel and contact with aliens is impossible? I'm gonna hazard a guess you're a fan of disinformation agent known as neil de grasse tyson.

Some background info for you on who started the ufo stigma that you now cling onto. This guy is a retired F16 pilot (you know, another one of those 'ufo nutters')

Uhm.... Yes....

So who gets to decide who gets told about Aliens?

You have to have incredible amounts of free time to be able to sufficiently do hours of research on Youtube... Only then are you capable of seeing them and be clever enough to be certain of their existence

Nah, quite a normal forum topic.
But the Twitt types are growing in number.... :oops:

De grasse tyson is a well known disinformation agent, please tell me you know that.
Charles darwin and his "theory of evolution" has more holes than a bucket hit with a 12 gauge shotgun.
Please, tell me you know this

I think I am starting to believe.... No, I am now actually certain that UFOism poeple and even more delusional than the average Christian/ Muslim extremist...

We can both agree that the planet Mars exists right?

And yes, maybe there is some super intelligent, super advanced alien species out there, but the chances of them finding us is negligible.
And if they did it would be an amazing achievement for them, they would make contact with the most scientific of us, not stick a probe up Monnshine Billy Bob's ass.

It confuses me that people think that aliens would be advanced enough to find us and then only choose to expose themselves to the most gullible man on the street with the worst possible camera.

Also, if they did find us, we would have some form of communication years before a physical craft would arrive.

Theory is those lot are clones (again the Greys) on a mission to experiment with reproduction with other life forms, so just bots with no other interest in us.

Some are said to be nervous of mankind's reaction if they were suddenly revealed. Thing is, either way there's lots of reason to think something is going on. You wouldn't believe how many incidents there have been, it's HUGE.

Who is "we"? You got some HAM radio or something, or expecting this telepathically?

Bottom line, "we" as in you and I wouldnt be any the wiser if comms have or would happen.

The problems of communication alone are pretty hectic, imagine we discovered evidence of an alien civilization 20-25 light years away, even though the chances of that are pretty slim as we only know of 84 systems at this distance.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_star_systems_within_20–25_light-years

So we discover them and decide we want to contact them (there are various schools of thought about whether this might not be a good idea, The Dark Forest hypothesis for example) but anyway.

That's 20 years for the message to get to them and 40 years for any kind of reply.

For us, yep. For them... an example of a way around it could be some use of quantum entanglement.

How quantum entanglement happens?
Quantum entanglement is the phenomenon that occurs when a group of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in a way such that the quantum state of each particle of the group cannot be described independently of the state of the others, including when the particles are separated by a large distance ...

The shared behaviour is instant, regardless of distance.

Yeah, but they would have to plant one of those particles on earth in order for it to work. So , it could be used for faster-than-light comms, but you first need to get one-half of the pair here before it can be used.

Your understanding of this seems extremely limited to an archaic era of science. New strides have been made.
Broaden your horizons here

3 hours and 25 minutes? Is there even one verifiable piece of evidence in that video or is it or just "the person said this", or "that person wrote this"...?
