This has to be related to HAARP, and the recent trouble we've been having with the ionosphere.

Alien encounters 'within twenty years'

A top Russian astronomer say he expects humans to encounter extraterrestrial civilisations within the next two decades

Russian scientists expect humanity to encounter alien civilisations within the next two decades, a top Russian astronomer said on Monday.

"The genesis of life is as inevitable as the formation of atoms ... Life exists on other planets and we will find it within 20 years," said Andrei Finkelstein, director of the Russian Academy of Sciences' Applied Astronomy Institute, according to the Interfax news agency.

Speaking at an international forum dedicated to the search for extraterrestrial life, Finkelstein said 10% of the known planets circling suns in the galaxy resemble Earth.

If water can be found there, then so can life, he said, adding that aliens would most likely resemble humans with two arms, two legs and a head.

"They may have different colour skin, but even we have that," he said.

Finkelstein's institute runs a programme launched in the 1960s at the height of the cold war space race to watch for and beam out radio signals to outer space.

"The whole time we have been searching for extraterrestrial civilisations, we have mainly been waiting for messages from space and not the other way," he said.

In March a Nasa scientist caused controversy after claiming to have found tiny fossils of alien bugs inside meteorites that landed on Earth.

Richard Hoover, an astrobiologist at the US space agency's Marshall space flight centre in Alabama, said filaments and other structures in rare meteorites appear to be microscopic fossils of extraterrestrial beings that resemble algae known as cyanobacteria.

Writing in the Journal of Cosmology, Hoover claimed that the lack of nitrogen in the samples, which is essential for life on Earth, indicated they are "the remains of extraterrestrial life forms that grew on the parent bodies of the meteorites when liquid water was present, long before the meteorites entered the Earth's atmosphere."

Sure you're not thinking of WalMart? ???

Life forms stranger than ALF hang there :o


But I certainly hope that scientist is right.... might be just the kick-in-the-rubles we need to unify our world and pursue better goals than who controls the oil :)

Peace!

Ain't that the truth. Do a web search for "Wal-Martians" and see what turns up.

I once saw Jessco White at a Wal-Mart. He was in full Elvis mode,cruisin' the lot for chicks in an ancient Crown Vic. I would have chucked a rock at him,but I didn't have one handy.
