Well, duh! They're in Roswell, NM, silly! :-)

Extra-terrestrial life does exist, the head of NASA has confirmed, but said aliens were not hidden in Area 51. NASA Administrator Major Charles Bolden told British schoolchildren that he was confident that scientists would find life outside of Earth because there were so many planets that are similar to our own.
Asked by 10-year-old Carmen Dearing if he believed in aliens, he said: "I do believe that we will someday find other forms of life or a form of life, if not in our solar system then in some of the other solar systems - the billions of solar systems in the universe.
“Today we know that there are literally thousands, if not millions of other planets, many of which may be very similar to our own earth. So some of us, many of us believe that we're going to find...evidence that there is life elsewhere in the universe."
Major Bolden also admitted that Area 51 existed but said the US government was not hiding alien life there. “There is an Area 51,” he said. “It’s not what many people think. I’ve been to a place called that but it’s a normal research and development place. I never saw any aliens or alien spacecraft or anything when I was there. “It think because of the secrecy of the aeronautics research that goes on there it’s ripe for people to talk about aliens being there.”

HE did not reveal anything the government has not already acknowledged to this day. The government has officially acknowledged the existence of THE Area 51. However, there could be other facilities with such areas named after numbers such as area 21. And by such this former military member could have stated correctly that he indeed worked at an area 51 but not the same Area 51 which was implied by the question. Thus the former military member could have been speaking factually correct about the place he worked and not being 100 percent truthful exactly where it was he worked. For example lets say you ask if I worked at McDonalds. I say yes. If I do not give an exact location am I stating an untruth? No just because you asked if I worked at McDonalds and did not specify the location, my answer was truthful as to the context of the question. With these higher ups its all about the semantics of the question as to the answer given in response. The guy never gave the location but said it was only a normal R&D facility and that he had worked at a place called Area 51. Because the questioner insinuated the location and the response never included the location, the resultant insinuation was to be of the same location. Truthful in nature but untruthful as well provided the person being asked the question knew what the questioner was insinuating.
Is the this the same NASA director appointed for the purpose of “Moslem Outreach?”
If so, who cares what he thinks or believes?
Whether those beings are from a different planet is an entirely different question.
Chances are, there is “life” of some sort, out there. Perhaps not carbon based. Perhaps not oxygen breathing. Perhaps some sort of “life” more akin to microbes that can exist in caustic, hot, high pressured environments. On Earth, we have found “life” nearly everywhere. Deep in the deepest parts of the oceans and high in the atmosphere. Perhaps it is even a “life-form” that continually regenerates petroleum. Weird and wonderful are the life-forms He has created. We simply do not yet know if they exist “out there”. If it is His will, we may someday find out.

Bolden is not a Major....
Maj. Gen. Charles Frank Bolden, Jr., (USMC-Ret.)
The reason I believe there is no “intelligent” life out there is because we have little or no intelligent life here!
to finding out, Thumper ... to finding out and I’m as human as those whom forget ... May I lay my ‘body in the ground’ ... if can ... will let all know ...
Guess What?!? Is called and it carries ‘not far //// Ghost?
I agree...however perhaps this is the whole point. The Muslims are waiting for a Mahdi that could have Alien origins...
I am having trouble following your posts no-to-illegals. Can you clarify what you are trying to say? Unless you are speaking Klingon...
Bees but never posted ... the color
pssst....Father’s Day bottle of brandy opened early. :-)
or ... Capture?
LOL
And I was told that the actual site is 51 miles from the main entrance to the area, thus it is called “Area 51.” Don’t tell any body, but the Roswell UFO is buried under DIA building at Bolling Air Force Base.
The Mahdi might be demonic, but I don’t think he is an alien.
I’m calling MUFON now!
Sometimes, it seems they’ll believe anything.
A few things, here and there, are interesting.
Of course, I don’t think it means little green men.
I don’t remember that one, but I WOULD like to know what was over Phoenix in 1997.
My guess is psy-ops. Tested early just in case folks went crazy at Y2K, which never blew up (I didn’t think it would).
