While others say it’s “far- fetched”. There have been several stories of aliens. A very famous story was called: “War of the Worlds”. In 1938, there was a international radio telecast by Orson Welles. He made up a story that frightened the world saying that aliens were attacking us and were abducting people one by one. There were no computers and really no one had television. So, there was no proof whether Welles' statement was true or false. Eventually, the people found out that it was a hoax and made Welles’ and his crew apologize. If you want to hear the entire telecast, click the link to follow..

The sheer numbers demanded it. But one of the four, the renowned physicist and back-of-the-envelope calculator Enrico Fermi, asked the telling question: If the extraterrestrial life proposition is true, he wondered, Where IS everybody? In this lively and thought-provoking book, Stephen Webb presents a detailed discussion of the 50 most cogent and intriguing answers to Fermi\'s famous question, divided into three distinct groups: - Aliens are already here among us. Here are answers ranging from Leo Szilard\'s suggestion that they are already here, and we know them as Hungarians, to the theorists who claim that aliens built Stonehenge and the Easter Island statues. - Aliens exist, but have not yet communicated. The theories in this camp range widely, from those who believe we simply don\'t have the technologies to receive their signals, to those who believe the enormities of space and time work against communication, to those who believe they\'re hiding from us. - Aliens do not exist. Here are the doubters\' arguments, from the Rare Earth theory to the author\'s own closely argued and cogently stated skepticism. The proposed solutions run the gamut from the crackpot to the highly serious, but all deserve our consideration. The varieties of arguments -- from first-rate scientists, philosophers and historians, and science fiction authors -- turn out to be astonishing, entertaining, and vigorous intellectual exercises for any reader interested in science and the sheer pleasure of speculative thinking.
