The Best Places in the World to Contact Extraterrestrials

In 1945, when the stage for the Second World War had been set, Flight 19 took off from Fort Lauderdale with 14 men on board. This was a seasoned torpedo bomber crew that had seen many challenges. And yet, it disappeared without a trace. The last contact with the crew only revealed that their radio had stopped working. A Martin Mariner Flying Boat was then sent to locate and rescue them, but that plane and the 13 man rescue team vanished as well. A entire squadron of propeller-driven single-engine aircraft also disappeared the the Bermuda Triangle and they were never found. And that isn’t all. 309 people aboard the USS Cyclops in 1918 would go missing 27 years later on the same route. The carrier ship was meant to supply cargo to World War I troops. The Cyclops never made it back either. In both cases, the crime scene was in and around the Bermuda Triangle. The Triangle also happens to be one of the best places you could visit if you’re looking to make contact with ex...

Every NASA Mission Should Be Looking for Alien Life - Says Scientists

Image
A mandated report written by a team of 17 scientists proclaimed that all future NASA missions should involve searching for signs of extraterrestrials . The report published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering & Medicine (NASEM) discusses the significance of astrobiology. Only by investing in astrobiology will we figure out the origins of humanity and how life may have evolved on other planets. This brings us to the question: NASA has existed for decades, so why the publicly announced sudden interest in extraterrestrial life? Possible Life on Exoplanets Over the last decade or so, astrophysicists have learned of exoplanets which can possibly hold life. In the meantime, biologists are looking into the Earth’s biodiversity. These new discoveries have boosted the chances of finding life beyond Earth; therefore, all missions to the outer-space should include searching for alien life. A co-author of the report and respected astronomer Alan Boss ...
