Aliens?

By SETH BORENSTEIN, AP Science Writer

HOUSTON - Shuttle astronauts spotted three pieces of debris floating in space outside Atlantis early Wednesday, a day after the discovery of two other mysterious objects forced a postponement of the landing.
Atlantis commander Brent Jett described the objects as two rings and a piece of foil. He told Mission Control the first object, about 100 feet from the shuttle, was "a reflective cloth or a mechanic looking-cloth. ... It's not a solid metal structure."

"It doesn't look like anything I've seen outside the shuttle," Jett said.

The astronauts noticed the objects during an extensive inspection of the space shuttle using a 50-foot-boom early Wednesday to see if its heat shield was damaged by a mysterious object that apparently floated off the spacecraft.

Jett suggested the three objects might have come from the Russian Soyuz vehicle, which docked with the international space station early Wednesday. But Mission Control told him the Soyuz likely was too far below the shuttle, and that the closest the two space vehicles came to each other was 20 miles.

also

there is space junk from other civilizations from other worlds
that could have drifted here over ten thousand years. Of course
if it were found....we'd never hear about it.

the latest crash into the moon spacecraft could have ejected

materials into space maybe.... or some other space craft that
was hit by a meteor and smashed into bits and pieces.

anyone that doesn't believe in UFO's is in firm denial.
it could be attributed to inter-dimensional travel
even by ourselves in the way distant future.

but basically..........
it's a mathematical imposibilty for there not to be
intelligent life on other planets.... how many of those
civilizations are capable of interstellular travel is another
question....

but if they were around say a hundred thousand years
before us they could have had enough scientific acomplishments
to travel to our galaxy. it's called exploration.

imagine a ship that would have taken one thousand
of our earth years to build in space 10,000 years ago.

the aliens (they are tall men almost swiss looking with super thick spiked hair)
told us that the best food on our planet is blueberries
