Do you believe in aliens? I don’t mean Hollywood aliens, like you see in “Independence Day” or other movies. I mean the ‘real’ aliens, extraterrestrials. I’m asking because CNN has a story about a famous astronaut who thinks that we are not alone in the universe. . . and that aliens are probably visiting us.
Play the recording to hear me describe the news story.
If you want more information, you can find it on the Internet:
- The CNN story I’m talking about.
- The Wikipedia page of Edgar Mitchell, the former astronaut the story talks about.
- The Wikipedia page for the ‘Roswell UFO Incident,’ the most famous ‘UFO’ story, and the one that Mitchell says is probably real.
As for me. I don’t know. I would feel silly saying ‘I believe in aliens.’ I’m not one of the people who builds a radio and tries to communicate with the stars. But I do agree that the universe is an awefully big place for us to be alone. I wouldn’t be shocked if there were aliens. I would be shocked, though, if they knocked on my door.
What do you think?
