Are UFO's and extraterrestrials real?

Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at their "secret" base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room.

The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the investigation.

By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot really was lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up his airplane, gave him a terrifying "you-did-not-see-a-base" briefing, complete with threats of spending the rest of his life in prison, told him Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such a heading, and sent him on his way.

The day after that though, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP's surrounded the plane...only this time there were two people in the plane.

The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night!"

lol.

The documents that are being released under the freedom of information act, seem to be corroborating testomonies like these.
The 'proofs' offered at this news conference are open to scrutiny.

Corroborating testimony seems to be more credible at law.However, such testimony tends to be relatively ordinary.

A claim of alien visitation(s) is extraordinary. Such claims have been made thousands of times ,often by very credible witnesses. So far,not ONE piece of credible evidence has ever been produced.

.With such extra ordinary claims , I demand extra ordinary evidence. Personal testimony is simply not enough.If it were, I would be a religious believer instead of an atheist and skeptic.


Please note that I am make no claims of my own,I simply do not believe there is enough credible evidence to draw a valid inference. So no,the testimony is NOT 'compelling' to me, it's 'mildly interesting'.

What seems to be 'different' about these airforce personnel and their testamonies, is that they are NOT claiming alien visitations per se ie they don't say 'we saw aliens'. What they are saying is that they have experienced ufos, which obviously do not need to be extraterrestrial. Have some of them come to the conclusion that these ufos are ets? Yes, but they may be wrong in that, but they don't seem to be lying when they say these 'objects' did indeed fly over nuclear missile bases etc.

I've been checking this stuff out the last few days. From what I am learning, the wealth of declassified documents (radar readings) do 'prove' that ufos exist, not what they ARE.

I agree it is a massive leap to say a ufo is from another planet or dimension. It is more likely going to be a secret technology that baffles people who do not know about it. There are aspects of this 'secret technology' that lead to the alien connection:

the 'vehicles' perform manoeuvres that are too advanced and even seem to defy the laws of physics.

The 'interest' in the nuclear facilities and the interference of the nuclear warheads seems to suggest those of the advanced technology are maybe trying to highlight something about nuclear weapons. If it was say Russia(former Soviet Union) who were responsible for the ufos over the American sites, then it would be somewhat reckless for them to risk retaliation upon their own countries and vice versa.

I believe there are ufos which demonstrate very advanced technology, and the most plausible explanation would be that someone somewhere (the Chinese maybe???) has developed this technology. I am 'open' to the possibility that it could be extraterrestrial, but I think that very unlikely.
