Ok, ok. I will confess. I am an Alien. I have been living on planet Earth for thousands of years. I come from the planet Pegasus. Here is a picture of me.

Anyone ever see the Twilight Zone episode "To serve man"?
Synopsis
The Kanamits, 9 foot tall aliens, arrive on Earth with one lofty goal: To Serve Man.
Full Recap
Michael Chambers, a decoding specialist with the U.S. government, is in a sealed chamber when a voice states it's meal time and ask for his preference. Chambers tells the voice to get lost and refuses to eat. He thinks back to how he got into the situation he's in and how no one on Earth considered the future...
In April, the nations of the world worried about the various problems plaguing the Earth. Flying saucers arrived from space and landed at various spots across the Earth. The UN warns that there is no sign that the aliens, who call themselves Kanamits, have any hostile intent. One of the Kanamits, a 9' tall bald alien, arrives at the UN and declares his race's peaceful intent. They want to open embassies and arrange immigration back and forth between the two planets. The Kanamit explains that they can help Earthlings avoid or prevent natural disasters and provide a near-infinite power source. The Russian ambassadors wonders if the Kanamits have an ulterior motive but the representative asserts that their motives are totally altruistic and they can provide each nation with a force field to protect itself from any enemy attack.
Chambers is called in to decipher a Kanamit book that the alien representative leaves behind, but has no luck. He believes that the Kanamits are what they claim, noting that they've already restored the soil fertility in South America to demonstrate their good will. His assistant Penny deciphers the book's title: "To Serve Man."
The UN representatives meet to see a tape showing an interrogation of the Kanamit using a lie detector. After establishing a baseline for physical measurement, they confirm that his mission is to bring peace and plenty to everyone on Earth. The nations of the Earth begin to disarm and come together in peace. The Kanamits turn deserts into farmlands and armies are all but disbanded as the force fields are distributes. Meanwhile, the Kanamits set up an exchange program and promote how pleasant their home planet is. Chambers, with nothing to decode for military intelligence, shuts down his office as he chats with Penny and talks about how easily Mankind has adapted to the news of alien life. He admits that he is on a exchange group waiting list and Penny notes she is too. She is continuing to work on the Kanamit book but so far hasn't had any success.
Later, Chambers is ready to depart. However, as he is on the landing ramp, Penny arrives to tell him that she's translated the book: it's a cookbook. The Kanamits force Chambers onto the flying saucer and depart.
In the present, Chambers throws his food to the ground but a Kanamit enters and encourages him to eat so he doesn't lose weight. With no other choice, he finally desperately gives in and starts eating.

Crimzy, this discussion may be stupid, but isn't that the entire point of the aquarium forum?
I was just kidding... this thread's no dumber than the littany of trash posted by Darth Tang and/or Ruaround.
What's up guys?

I doubt it. We would end up giving them Swine Flu, HIV, or some other disease and they would all die.

Multiply that 200 billion by the eight planets in our solar system and you get 1.6 trillion planets. You then have to figure that scientists estimate that there are over 100 billion galaxies. That makes...well a heck of a lot of planets!
We are one planet out of more than we can possibly fathom. So surely there is other life out there. Thoughts?
Old school said 9 planets...they have now, with the help of the Hubble Telescope have found another planet making 10.
There is very little intelligent life on this planet, and you think there are possibly others? hmmm Okay but maybe they are just too smart to bother with earth.

Really? I knew Pluto is no longer considered a planet, so I subtracted one from nine...Astrology isn't my thing so thanks for the info
I have to wonder how in the world (or out of the world
) we are supposed to travel to another planet. Gravity would get in the way and so would time...
If we could figure out a way to utilize teleportation or time manipulation, I can see it happening. How else could we do it? I remember hearing that it would take 90 years to travel to Pluto or something like that.

Uh... 'Offically' according to the IAU on Aug. 26, 2006 we only have 8 planets. That tiny frozen ball of rock that intersects occassionally with Neptune, is longer a planet.

It seems pretty likely that there is in fact life somewhere out there: here is the Drake equation, courtesy of WIKI ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_equation ), that tries to calculate the likelyhood of intelligent life somewhere out there:
The Drake equation states that:
N=R*x Fp x Ne x Fe x Fi x Fc x L
where:
N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible;
and
R* is the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy
fp is the fraction of those stars that have planets
ne is the average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets
fℓ is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life at some point
fi is the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life
fc is the fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space
L is the length of time such civilizations release detectable signals into space.[2]
Pretty cool stuff and boy will it blow peoples minds if and when we do discover incontrovertible proof of other advanced civilizations!
I am pretty sure however that we have not yet been visited-there just isn't any real, solid, hard evidence that it has happened. Yet.

Uhm yeah what you said sounds good and scientific so I will agree .
