    Everything started all over again from scratch? I don't know it's not like I talk to the Aliens on a daily basis. Just whenever I go to the post office, BMV, or Wal-Mart.

    It is just a possibility of another evolution in time. Even if nothing was wiped out completely, let's just say something significant happened at this time - to them - or something will happen in the near future to draw attention from the future to this specific time. Think of it similar to "Star Trek: First Contact".

    But one thing that does make you wonder a bit - the beings have quite a bit of control over the other beings - us. Any lack of control or ultimate understanding from someone who isn't controlled could take over such a time-machine if that were the case, come back... or would they not come back at all? I sure as hell wouldn't. But that would be my take on the issue. Convincing others of what exists in the future, lightyears (literally) ahead of our time would be impossible to convey, understand or even communicate to others. Trying to exlpain the intenet to someone in the 1800's would be difficult enough. Try imagining leaps and abouts above the small steps in communication that we have made.

    Just had a friend try to convince me that this latest mexico thing is aliens... After about 2 seconds of looking at the photos and video, it became painfully obvious that this is just a random object being reflected in the lens of the camera. Anyone who watches the video and thinks otherwise has a few screws loose... Object could be a weather balloon, moon, whatever. But it's obviously just one thing being reflected in the lens. The account says that the things swarmed around them, but if you watch the video, they're perfectly uniform across the screen, exactly how a lens reflection looks (used to do video production, seen plenty...)

    "It's not UFO's. It's Mexicans discovering electricity"

    ^(Heard this comment from a Hispanic friend of mine). He said that when he lived down there it was alot of crap about UFO's. People allways claiming to see them but they just ended up being flares,planes,etc.

    Well that certainly disproves every UFO incident that has ever been encountered south of the border then doesn't it. I will sleep better tonight.

    I once saw a squirrell run by my bedroom window. The certainly proves that every object that runs by my window is indeed, a squirrell. I once saw a kit car with a yellow horsey sticker on the front fender. So that naturally proves that all cars with yellow horsey stickers on the front fenders are indeed, kit cars.

    I'm sure that Rob will now change the name of this site to: Horseykitcarsticker.com.

    I'm not sure what the issue is here. UFO means unidentified flying object. Claim was that 11 objects erratically swarmed around them, must be aliens! Video clearly shows a lens flare of a single object. The object itself is still unidentified, but the 'swarm' is just a lens reflection. What's your problem?

    The same problem that always occurs with the so-called "objective" reporting when it comes to covering the subject of UFOs. The quick conclusions that the "media" immediately comes to would never be tolerated if the subject were say, a video of hostages in the middle east, or security camera video of a kidnapping in progress, etc. Since one UFO videotape in Mexico may not turn out to be everything that the "tongue in cheek" media thinks that it is, then that same media is quick to debunk the whole story as if there was absolutely no substance behind it in the first place. The "media" will always bend over backwards to portray any UFO story as a joke complete with little green men from Mars. There probably isn't one reporter out of ten who knows anything serious about the subject.

    Seems that this theory wouldn't explain the "little gray men," or would it? How about this for thought? They aren't humans at all. Instead, they're millions of years foward along the evolutionary scale. Descendants of the descendants of our descendants.;)

    indeed. a skin pigment or quality could have changed from another planet, lack of sunlight for eons while travelling in space or not travelling at all. it could be a means of a lot of things. but one thing is for sure, it would be millions if not more, years into the future. this wouldn't be due to the technology used, but due to the evolution in the beings themselves.

    I also just read an article in the paper today how in 1971 we sent signals for the first time to a star using a new radar and such. Now the kicker is it said if anyone hears the message or picks up the signal, well we wont know becuase it will take 25,000 years to get there!!! That is very hard to comprehend even. It was sent to M13 in the constelation Hercules. To think how many people will be long gone by then if even the earth exists by then.

    Granted with the advent of nanotechnologies that allow manufactured cilia to protect clothing from stains (coming to a khaki store near you) and microscopic mirrors for the nextgen soldier's dynamic camouflage... to eventual invisibility via nanoscopic mirrors and cameras...

    What's to say they aren't standing right behind you as we speak?

    Explain how that is a lens flare when it was taken with an infared camera

    Looks like the DARPA folks screwing with the Mexicans again...

    Or it could really be aliens on a scientific expedition. Finding intelligent life on Earth is not as easy as it sounds, hence why their lights are always on...

    Another explanation is that Earth has been designated a galactic drivers' ed course, hence their very erratic "driving"...

    Um. Maybe you missed that section in 4th grade science class... Infrared light is still light. An infrared camera is still a camera. It captures light through a series of lenses. Infrared light is the same kind of light you see when you open your eyes, it's just farther off the red end of the spectrum, below what humans can see. It's still light, and is still captured with a camera that uses the same kind of lens that your own camera uses. There's nothing magical about it. If pointed at a luminescent object at a particular angle, the light will reflect inside the lens, causing a lens flare or lens reflection. If you look at the photos or watch the video, it *clearly* shows a lens reflection. That's not "media spin" that's not "ignorant bs".. that's what it IS. Argue all day over what the luminescent object itself is, but the 'swarm' is nothing more than a reflection in the lens. Why that is so hard to accept it beyond me.

    It's amazing to me that when presented with something as simple and common as a lens reflection, people would RATHER believe it to be alien spaceships with cloaking devices. Yes, the pilots think that these were alien spaceships using cloaking devices. Why cloaking devices? BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T SEE THEM. Why couldn't they see them? BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY A REFLECTION IN THE LENS. If you looked in the direction of the 'swarm' you wouldn't see anything.. yet if you look at the IR monitor, you see a series of lights.. OH MY GOD! ALIENS WITH CLOAKING DEVICES! No, just light bouncing off of glass.

    Have you even seen the photos or video???

    http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/200405/r20898_51261.jpg

    Notice that the two arrangement of 3 lights is *exactly* the same? It's even more evident in the video:

    Video

    Notice that the 'lights' aren't moving, but it looks like they are because this is being shot from a moving airplane.. the clouds are moving past and the camera is shaking, making it look like the 'lights' are moving around. However, notice that they're flying "in formation" according to the newscaster. Well that "formation" is nothing more than a lens reflection that anyone who's ever spent time behind a camera has seen. What's even more telling is that when you see the 'group' of 6 lights enter the shot, they show up IN FRONT of the clouds when the actual luminescent object (rightmost one) is revealed from behind the clouds. When the rightmost 'object' is behind the clouds, there's no formation. When it emerges from behind the clouds, suddenly the other objects come into view IN FRONT of the clouds, EXACTLY how a lens reflection looks. What the heck, here's a few examples of lens reflections just so you know what I'm talking about.

    ok smart a$$ why did it show up on radar if it was just a "lens flare"?

    and by the way I was just asking for an explanation on why you thought it was a lens flare no need to be a dink

    Quoted from CNN's website

    "The lights were filmed on March 5 by pilots using infrared equipment. They appeared to be flying at an altitude of about 3,500 meters (11,480 feet), and allegedly surrounded the Air Force jet as it conducted routine anti-drug trafficking vigilance in Campeche. Only three of the objects showed up on the plane's radar"

    Simply amazing how those lens flares show up on Radar isn't it

    Theres no way thats just a lense reflection. The lights are not even moving with the camera, you can see the camera move but the "lights" still moving in a different direction on there own and look to have some speed. Come on scientist you think you have figured this one out all by yourself but no one else who has seen this all over has? And like pat said it was also on radar.

    our sun is scheduled to go into its dying stages in 3845 ish. when it goes through the " giant" stages there wont be any of our planets left. our sun is too small and lacks the mass to go supernova or black hole/neutron star.
