@@youmenow1 my prediction is that we won't find out what those are. There are at least dozen sightings, if not hundreds more, which can be attributed to the pentagon UFO's. The problem is that none of the data collected from any of those sightings provides concrete evidence which could tilt the odds in favor of the Alien hypothesis, computer error hypothesis, or the myriad of the other explanations of these phenomena (foreign government technology, etc). The captured footage is of poor quality, and in the infrared spectrum, making it hard to discern any details or clues which could help us understand what these objects are. I don't think that will change, at least in the short term (ie. next 5 to 10 years), and until that happens, we'll probably never get our answer. So because of that, I wouldn't get my hopes up.
@@youmenow1 It's more likely that this is a ploy by the military in order to get more funding in order to defend against these supposed UFOs. The bastards have enough of our tax money already. I say, we need to defund the military. (for those who don't know what defund means: this means reduce the military's funding, not remove the military's funding entirely.) With a reduction in the military's budget, we could redistribute the extra funds to our welfare programs, nationalise the pharmaceutical industry, invest in green energy, invest in scientific research in all fields, and fund the hell out of NASA, to push further into the final frontier.

That's more likely than you think. "What if they can only communicate with, beavers and stuff..." To think of how difficult it would be to communicate with Aliens could be similar to us trying to say "Good Morning" to an Ant.... simply put different species communicate differently. Our species communicate Vocally, where as Ants communicate using Pheromones. That said there's a possibility that we will never be able to communicate with other Species :'( .... which is trully sad. So an Alien species similar to Insects like the Ant might not be able to communicate with US humans,... however they could potentially communicate with "Ants" for example :)! Which is one reason I choose not to harm insects anymore... imagine if we eventually visited Alien Life and discovered they'd made multiple Humanoid/Prime ape species extinct... or even Mammals in general :/... it would have a significant impact on "First impressions" and change our perspective on how we view that species :( So imagine how Insect Alien lifeforms might view us :'(. We have pesticides, and yeah it might be just for infestations in our homes but STILL :'/! Also imagine how Aquatic Alien lifeforms might view us..... it's no secret we have Islands of TRASH JUST DUMPED into the Ocean simply because we don't live IN the Ocean :/! I may have Got sidetracked from the topic of "Alien communication with another species" to "How Aliens related to said species might view us" ... but it felt like it was worth mentioning, given the current topic :'/.
Alien 1: Do you think humans and mock us? Alien 2: I don't know let us check The "Internet" *sees dame tu cosita video* Alien 1: Get the missile ready.
From one of my favorite comics: "Are we alone in the universe?" she asked. "Yes," said the Oracle. "So there's no other life out there?" "There is. They're alone too."
We, as members of the same species, are all intelligent, I'm afraid. But more often than not we don't know how to use our intelligence or simply use it for the wrong things...
+Khy Maaren true. We are our greatest enemy. Our governments are lying to us, and we pollute our planet to only last the next 100 years. Aliens are real and have visited us. We are created by aliens not God. Our history is misinterpreted. We are our own destruction.

Bryan Turnbow octopuses man. They have 8 arms, nine brains, three hearts, blue blood, and can rearrange their genetic code in their life time(to a certain extent).
I respectfully disagree. if there are aliens and their technology is advanced enough to enable them to travel from their planet to Earth, we would go extinct in 30 minutes to 1 hour after noticing their arrival
People always fear what they don't understand. I think Men in Black explained it best, "a person is smart, people are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals". I would like to think that first contact will be peaceful but the Syrian refugee crisis and events in our past make me think that we will be hostile towards an alien race.

Lord GabeN Here on earth, we have organisms called Tardigrades that can survive in open space for days. So yeah, aliens do exist out there somewhere. They are either too far away or they just don't care about us.

Alien: Hey humans! We're gonna show where you were from, what the meanings of the universe are and share technology! Earth (America): DESTROY THE ALIENS!!! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!
Aidan Allen You just need to browse around on youtube for a little. I don't remember the links of videos that gave evidence, but there is a video where someone confirmed there were aliens in Area 51.
We would be finding them if they were less developed. He is speaking of them finding us. At minimum you might find slightly less advanced alien signals but unlikely given the brief period between radio signal discoveries and our present advancement.
Did anyone think of the possibility that there might more than only 1 type of aliens out there? The universe is vast and we group ALL extraterrestrial races together assuming they're all the same? That while only the human race is so diverse within itself...
Karrie Dreammind yes, I have also thought of convergent vs. divergent evolutionary trees of alien life forms. You have less and more advanced aliens all over the universe.
Of course, you know that all UFOs that have been spotted have never been aliens, right? And for those that never have been disproved, many more likely inferences can be made.
Dark Matter as of this immediate time, is still as a theory. No hard evidence it actually exists. Just a theory created to explain the holes left in a black hole, which itself is a theory
how about Gravity? If we were to assume black holes are not real, it leaves a really really dense location full of gravity so attractive, even light is sucked in.
Well, would it? What are the odds of something just starting to live? And that thing that randomly started to live must have a functioning way of multiplying and a way to evolve so some kind of DNA or something working similar ways. I mean, it also need to be in a place that support life obviously, which reduces the odds of it happening greeeeatly. Unless the lifeforms are spread from remains of other planets on asteroids or something, in my head that theory makes more sense. But still a slim chance of it hitting a planet that can sustain life and allow the organism to actually continue its life. Most likely being some kind of single cell organism or at least not many cells. Fun fact, they believe the first life on earth began 4 billions years ago, so it took humans 4 billion years to evolve from nothing, to humans and then come to the point we are today. They believe the universe it 13,8 billion years old. Civilization has been around for what, 10 000 years and we''ve already faced multiple natural catastrophes which could have wiped us out if we had been really unlucky. So we also need to be that lucky all life on the planet is not already wiped out when we get there. There are a lot of factors saying the chances of life are really slim. But then I might be wrong and all planet which possibly can sustain life are sustaining life, and it is really easily spread by something or appear really easily. Let's hope! :D
"There are a lot of factors saying the chances of life are really slim." how unlikely the odds are doesn't matter much when you have a nearly infinite amount of chances at it.
@DIVAD291 @Rubayat Omio What if the chances of life are close to zero? Or if it's an anomaly it appeared in the first place and the only practical way for it to appear on other planets are if it spreads from earth, and chances of that have happen before modern days are slim.
+ExplosiveCar - haha Exactly, it's the toilet booth, or bathroom rule. If the doors lock is busted or non existent and someone walks up and you just know that door is gonna fly open if you don't make a cough noise or say awkwardly "erm someone's in here..". Alien dudes, erm *cough* Earth's occupied, so please don't crap on us.
We cant even reliably and consistently make the journey to walk on the moon, our nearest satellite, an alien species capable of going to a different galaxy or blowing up the earth would have zero reason to fear us. We would be as technologically advanced as cavemen to them.
They probably would not explode Earth should they even possess such an ability as much of the valuable information that has come from Earth would be lost forever. When considering the fact that they would have the ability to travel space so far, that especially holds true. Why would they destroy what they most likely have come to find?
"If the cosmic phone rings, we shouldn't pick it up." Maybe that ties into Fermi's Paradox, maybe we are heard, but intelligent alien life choose not to respond for the same reason.
It also ties with the fact that maybe it is ringing, we only don't know how to listen it yet.
If so, then the reason might be that they wont pick up is because they know what we are, and how violent we are a species despite our upsides.
we cant be heard yet tho, the messages we've send into space can scientifically not have been arrived yet.

and we always imagine aliens with humans characteristics like eyes, mouth or even legs and arms
Could also work in reverse. If aliens found us they probably thought our biology is creepy and disgusting, just like how we see insect.
@@gre8000 its same as what I think we are to the universe. I mean I have a theory completed out of imagination that we are the atoms to other universes creating a new world? Like atoms and molecules build us? So we're cells for them? Idk

What if aliens actually do exist but they decide not to communicate with humans. What if they can only talk to like,beavers or something...
That's essentially the plot of Star Trek: The Voyage Home.
tHEN ThEY CoULD TaLK To JB
What if those with schitzophrenia and dementia are actually receiving alien broadcasts. 😶
Gregory Auger That’s too creepy
That's more likely than you think. "What if they can only communicate with, beavers and stuff..."
To think of how difficult it would be to communicate with Aliens could be similar to us trying to say "Good Morning" to an Ant.... simply put different species communicate differently. Our species communicate Vocally, where as Ants communicate using Pheromones. That said there's a possibility that we will never be able to communicate with other Species :'( .... which is trully sad.
So an Alien species similar to Insects like the Ant might not be able to communicate with US humans,... however they could potentially communicate with "Ants" for example :)!
Which is one reason I choose not to harm insects anymore... imagine if we eventually visited Alien Life and discovered they'd made multiple Humanoid/Prime ape species extinct... or even Mammals in general :/... it would have a significant impact on "First impressions" and change our perspective on how we view that species :(
So imagine how Insect Alien lifeforms might view us :'(. We have pesticides, and yeah it might be just for infestations in our homes but STILL :'/! Also imagine how Aquatic Alien lifeforms might view us..... it's no secret we have Islands of TRASH JUST DUMPED into the Ocean simply because we don't live IN the Ocean :/!
I may have Got sidetracked from the topic of "Alien communication with another species" to "How Aliens related to said species might view us" ... but it felt like it was worth mentioning, given the current topic :'/.

If aliens ever came to us we'd freak out and cause intergalactic war within hours of first contact
I respectfully disagree. if there are aliens and their technology is advanced enough to enable them to travel from their planet to Earth, we would go extinct in 30 minutes to 1 hour after noticing their arrival

People always fear what they don't understand. I think Men in Black explained it best, "a person is smart, people are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals".

Abdurrahman Goren But it is? Man there is like scientific evidence and stuff and im pretty sure so yeah man
Earth is flat, actually. Because it is a square.
Earth is neither flat nor round. It is like a bowl with a cover. Half round, half flat. There, happy?
@@forsmaneino which evidence?
Did anyone think of the possibility that aliens might be LESS developed? Maybe they're still just 1 celled organisms.
We would be finding them if they were less developed. He is speaking of them finding us. At minimum you might find slightly less advanced alien signals but unlikely given the brief period between radio signal discoveries and our present advancement.
Did anyone think of the possibility that there might more than only 1 type of aliens out there? The universe is vast and we group ALL extraterrestrial races together assuming they're all the same? That while only the human race is so diverse within itself...
Karrie Dreammind yes, I have also thought of convergent vs. divergent evolutionary trees of alien life forms. You have less and more advanced aliens all over the universe.

Yeh, I'm talking about people who speculate about real life.

well, the aliens would probablt at least stop, even if we're dumb compared to them it's not like every planet you see life
Dark Matter as of this immediate time, is still as a theory. No hard evidence it actually exists. Just a theory created to explain the holes left in a black hole, which itself is a theory
how about Gravity? If we were to assume black holes are not real, it leaves a really really dense location full of gravity so attractive, even light is sucked in.
sometimes complicated questions have simple answers
"Hey vsauce Micheal here but what is out there?" Bro that was smooth af imagine what his pickup lines are like
What if we’re alone?
Sayden that would be the most unlikest thing then. But what if there's other things than death and life?
Well, would it? What are the odds of something just starting to live? And that thing that randomly started to live must have a functioning way of multiplying and a way to evolve so some kind of DNA or something working similar ways. I mean, it also need to be in a place that support life obviously, which reduces the odds of it happening greeeeatly. Unless the lifeforms are spread from remains of other planets on asteroids or something, in my head that theory makes more sense. But still a slim chance of it hitting a planet that can sustain life and allow the organism to actually continue its life. Most likely being some kind of single cell organism or at least not many cells.
Fun fact, they believe the first life on earth began 4 billions years ago, so it took humans 4 billion years to evolve from nothing, to humans and then come to the point we are today.
They believe the universe it 13,8 billion years old. Civilization has been around for what, 10 000 years and we''ve already faced multiple natural catastrophes which could have wiped us out if we had been really unlucky. So we also need to be that lucky all life on the planet is not already wiped out when we get there.
There are a lot of factors saying the chances of life are really slim.
But then I might be wrong and all planet which possibly can sustain life are sustaining life, and it is really easily spread by something or appear really easily. Let's hope! :D
"There are a lot of factors saying the chances of life are really slim."
how unlikely the odds are doesn't matter much when you have a nearly infinite amount of chances at it.
GreakFTW the size of the universe is nearly infinite and increasing. So there's a really high chance that there is lifw out there.
@DIVAD291 @Rubayat Omio What if the chances of life are close to zero? Or if it's an anomaly it appeared in the first place and the only practical way for it to appear on other planets are if it spreads from earth, and chances of that have happen before modern days are slim.

From the Aliens point of view we are the aliens
I think if an alien capable of intelligence knew what we were capable of, they'd either run away to a different galaxy or just explode the Earth
We cant even reliably and consistently make the journey to walk on the moon, our nearest satellite, an alien species capable of going to a different galaxy or blowing up the earth would have zero reason to fear us.
We would be as technologically advanced as cavemen to them.
@@shill2920 you're right, but I was just talking about violence, + maybe they were all about peace and community?
They probably would not explode Earth should they even possess such an ability as much of the valuable information that has come from Earth would be lost forever. When considering the fact that they would have the ability to travel space so far, that especially holds true. Why would they destroy what they most likely have come to find?
