I believe
in aliens, extraterrestrials, worlds inhabited by intelligent beings and travel
throughout this galaxy. I do believe that our world has been visited, in the
past, by explorers from other worlds, to which our ancient ancestors once called,
“gods” from the skies.
I have watched those programs on the History Channel, The Science Channel, and the Discovery
Channel. And I love Science fiction and as well as write it, every now and then.
Not only that, I have read hundreds of science fiction book and non-fiction
books on science. I believe in science.
What I am
writing about, now, is something that has bothered me for a long time, a theory
that no one has seems to have investigated. Now, I cannot truly say this is a
fact, maybe someone wrote about it and I missed it, well maybe I just missed it
and need to do more checking on this theory of mine.
One day,
about thirty some-odd years ago I saw something in the sky as I drove home,
late one Saturday night. It was a large object and orange in color. It was
practically hovering in the sky, an unknown distance away from me. At the time
it looked like a blimp, The Goodyear blimp, which I found out later, was in
town.
However
there was something otherworldly about this “blimp”. Usually, most blimps are
larger in the front and narrower in the rear with stabilizers on the top and
bottom and a gondola attached on the bottom. The airship I spied, that night,
had neither, nor did it have the words “GOODYEAR” emblazoned on its side.
The airship
I saw, like I said, was orange in color, the front end was pointed with a large
hump on top and the rear end was close to being pointed. If I had to give a length,
I would have to say it was close to three hundred feet or so.
What scared
me, I started to back up, driving backwards up the street and it started
advancing towards me. When I stopped it stopped, so I decided to go forward and
it then reversed direction and headed away from me. Nothing the Goodyear blimp
could do or move that fast. I did not move for a good 10 minutes or so and it
continued to hover.
At the
time, when I stopped, I was standing outside of my car, waiting, watching, and
wondering what that airship was going to do. So, I got back into my car and
drove towards it. That is when it started to move away again. I followed if for
about 15 minutes but it was getting further and further away until it disappeared
into the early morning, night sky. Even thought I was a believer before this
sighting, I was truly a believer afterwards.
For some
odd reason, I now believe that it might have been a blimp or a hallucination or
I was on drugs or I was drunk or, or… I state this because of the theory I have
come up with in the past few months, while writing another science fiction
story and for that matter watching all the science fiction movies, lately.
I read,
some time ago, that if a race of intelligent beings were to visit our planet, Earth,
this race of beings would have to be anywhere from several thousand years to a
millions years more advance, scientifically, to where we are now, today. That
would mean that a million years to several thousand years ago the Earth was
visited by aliens.
But, how
did they really get from their planet to ours? Rockets, starships with faster than
light (FTL) engines? Rockets, specifically, chemical rockets probably did not
work. But, if it did maybe an alien race did come here a million years ago, probably
because it took them that long to get here.
That would
also mean that they did not leave this planet those many years ago. Could that also mean that they were human and seeded this planet with their offspring? But,
what did they do with their ships, or their civilization for that matter? Why aren’t we, today’s
humans, more advanced? That scenario possibly didn’t happen, but who’s to say
they didn’t visit?
Many pages
in texts from history, from all over the world say that beings from the skies
visited Earth. And watching the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens has convinced
me that it could have happened. But, why in rockets? In many pictograms, from
ancient times, most sky ships had what looked like fire coming out of the rear.
Throughout history we, humans, have exaggerated what they have seen, but that
just means that they did see it.
As for all
the sightings now, why come to this little blue planet and just fly around and
scare people? What would be the point? Are they trying to find out what kind of
defenses we have? And kidnapping people for study? Again, what would be the point?
Well, it does make for a good science fiction story or a story like they were
told thousands of years ago.
Most of these ships are small and I really do
not think they have the capacity to travel those great distances. And if they
had FTL engines wouldn’t the ships be so huge that they could be seen millions
of miles away, viewed by telescopes all over the world? And even Starships with
FTL engines still take time to get to their destination.
A race of beings that are over a
million years advance would not need ships of any kind. That brings me to my
theory.
Scientist have been working on the
theory of wormholes for many years, it was first postulated by Albert Einstein.
However, the wormholes I have thought of have no function in time travel, for
instance. A race of beings over a million years old or older could have almost
certainly conquered this theory and have put it into practice.
Thereby having no need for starships with FTL engines, think STARGATE. I think this is something we should consider rather
than still trying to work out the bugs on making chemical rockets to take us to
places like the moon, Mars, or the other planets.
These
advance races of being probably have been traveling to this planet, and others, for eons
without the people of Earth ever knowing of their very existence, via
wormholes; Stargates. Even in that television show, “Stargate”, the beings who
built the stargates were hundreds of thousands of years more advance then the
human race of today.
In
conclusion, have we been visited by extraterrestrial beings via “flying saucers”,
announcing to the world, “we are here, catch us if you can?” Or hiding in plain
sight traveling through these Stargates, spying on us, relaying this
information back to their home worlds? Or are they just checking in on their
creations, smiling, giving the thumbs up, watching us grow, and saying, among
themselves, “Their work on earth is done!”
