In this first part we shall look at how we may have gotten here and is it possible for other life forms to exist on other planets. We shall explore questions that I have asked myself since a young boy. Are we alone in the universe ? How did we/I get here ? who created me /us ?
I was raised in a strict Irish Catholic home where questions were not allowed, but i could never accept things that were told to me. I asked questions...I remember staring up at the stars at night and being fascinated. I think but may be wrong, that we as mankind are the only beings on the planet that are able to ask questions. To think that out of all the stars out there that we are it, always seemed so empty to me and as Jodie Foster in the movie Contact stated, "what a waste of space."
When I was but 11 years old my family were witness to a UFO as we were returning from a relatives house in New York. And again when I was 17 I witnessed something strange in the sky while parked at Garvies Point a local hangout. This just created more questions in my mind. What were these objects ? Before we get into my personal search for answers tho we really need to take a brief look at the planet earth and how life formed here before we can explore other questions.
It is a fact that our sun is just 1 star amongst billions of stars in our galaxy alone. And there are billions of galaxies..maybe endless. Just recently we discovered water not only on Mars but the Moon and also Mercury. What is needed for life as we know today is water and energy and organic molecules. Organic molecules can arrive here from comets or come from active volcanoes right here on the planet. We find iron and calcium in our makeup the same ingredients that make up the stars and the cosmos. To me this is exciting. It raise the question if life formed here on earth is it not possible for life to have formed on other planets ? And could not some of these other life forms be more advanced than us ? As we take our first baby steps out into the heavens and explore is it not possible others are also exploring ?
Scientists say the first single celled molecules developed here on the planet approximately 4.5 billion years ago. And then those single celled molecules evolved after billions of years into more complex multi celled organisms approximately half a billion years ago. And then about 200 million years age we have the emergence of the first mammals, and early man makes his appearance some 400,000 years ago. Could this same thing have happened on other planets? The earliest civilization on our planet is the Summerians, long before the arrival of the Egyptians, or the Mayans or Aztecs.
So it is this first civilization we shall be looking at to perhaps learn how we went from cave man to a culture of agriculture and mathematics seemingly overnight. Something is missing. We are missing parts of out history it seems. All of the earliest civilizations talk about strange flying objects in the skies. We find cave drawings on walls of caves throughout Spain and France. Do these flying objects exist ? Our own Bible seems to talk about beings coming down from the heavens. Are the gods of the bible really ancient astronauts ?
The earliest fighter pilots of the early world wars used to report strange objects in the sky as they flew their various missions. The objects were called foo fighters as we thought them some advanced form of technology from another country. The term UfO didn't come about until a man, Kenneth Arnold, flying a single engine cessna , over Mt Rainier in Washington in 1947 ,reported seeing 3 flying discs flying at incredible speeds, which were recorded on radar. Less then 2 weeks later we had the crashed disc in Roswell New Mexico, which the army claimed was from another world but later recanted.(this incident known as ROSWELL will be explored in much more detail in a future blog).
One of my favorite books which i read many years ago explores the possibility that we may have been visited by ancient astronauts. (Chariots of the gods, by Erich Von Daniken.) Why do all the ancient civilizations talk of beings coming down from the stars ? Now the scientific community is all very skeptical of this of course. What would happen to world religions and governments of the world ? Look what happened when Orsen Wells broadcast his famous war of the worlds episode and the panic that followed. Perhaps herein lies the answer that if we are being visited why it is being kept hidden. Or perhaps there is a deeper more sinister explanation. Tomorrow we shall take an in depth look at the earliest culture, the Summerians which appeared about 6000 years ago and explore in detail how we went from living in caves to writing and language and the zodiac and time..overnight you might say. Is it just possible we were helped ?
