By the way, if aliens have really visited earth, don't you think they would of contacted us by now? And why would NASA and the Govt. hide it? If Aliens were real that would give them HUGE boosts in funding to further space projects and space defense resources. So i bet that the first sign of alien they would say so and not hide it.
Funny. Star Trek: TNG dealt with this issue a few times. I remember one episode in particular where Captain Piccard, the alien, was interacting with the governmental leader trying to work away into integrating the planet into the Federation. It didn't work out, however, as their society was not ready to accept the existence of aliens. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
