Do UFO’s and Aliens Exist?
20 Reasons to be Skeptical:
UFOs exist – that much we should all be willing to concede.
But let’s quickly clarify that UFOs are very likely not aliens from outer space. They are simply objects that are flying and whose identification has eluded us for the time being. Simply put, they are, as the name implies, unidentified flying objects.
If, one day, extraterrestrial intelligence were ever to be discovered (especially here on Earth), then it would require extraordinary and reliable evidence. After all, one could argue that this would be the greatest discovery for humanity to finally answer the question… are we alone?
So, blurry pictures, shaky videos, and spooky anecdotes aside, here are 20 things to consider before coming to the conclusion that what you’re seeing or hearing about is actually a UFO piloted by an alien from outer space…

Let's list the reasons they give to be sceptical......
Lightning Sprites
Missile Tests
Cloud Formations
Weather Balloons
Venus (or Other Planets)
Illumination Flares
Airplanes, Helicopters, Drones, Satellites, or the ISS
Military Experiments or Aircraft
A Hoax or Prank
Crop Circles Are Just Made By Humans
The Face on Mars Is An Illusion
The Roswell Incident and Alien Autopsy Was a Hoax
The Term “Flying Saucer” is the Result of Poor Reporting
Alien Abductions Are a Product of Our Culture
Alien Implants Aren’t From Aliens
SETI is Actively Looking For UFOs
The Drake Equation
Just because “we don’t know” doesn’t make it a UFO
But you can’t prove what I saw was NOT a UFO![
