The truth is ... out there

Several news reports in the past couple of months have focused on a number of issues which have interested me for years, namely the possibilities of extraterrestrial life, UFOs and the discovery of other planets capable of sustaining life. Of particular interest – Dr. Stephen Hawking’s position that contact from an alien species would probably look more like the film “Independence Day” and less like “E.T.”

That possibility by itself is enough to make me want to phone home and make sure the folks are OK and haven’t been abducted.

One story which caught my eye in particular reported a group of ex-military types who stated UFOs had been spotted at military-controlled nuclear sites during the Cold War, following which the nukes were supposedly disabled for a time.

A warning, perhaps, from off-planet telling us to end nuclear proliferation?

While the chances of that being true seem far-fetched, even to a science fiction fanatic such as myself, I’ve had numerous conversations with friends and associates of mine on the existence of alien life and I must admit I remain unconvinced one way or the other.
