Everyone is basing this on the fact that the government says they have not found anything. I can think of many reasons why the government would lie about it. Im sure there are aliens out there that don't want to mess with our evolution.
Here is something to think about and maybe someone can explain this to me.. We have telescopes that can see to the edge of our known universe but when you look at all the photos from our own solar system it's blured or shown from a distance so we can't see much.. why is that? most pictures on mars are gray. We have moons full of oceans and they are trying to sell me that there is no life.. I call bullshit.. There is life everywhere.. it may not be like us but I know there are at least microbes.
