quade 3 #1 November 25, 2007 Ok, so I've been not feeling well all day long . . . took some drugs earlier and just woke up again . . . flicked on HISTORY channel and . . . they're doing UFOs?!? Ok . . . whatever . . . Question; why do all UFOs rotate near the ground? How the F does that make any sense at all? Don't the aliens get dizzy?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What makes you think the aliens inside are rotating too? They're probably floating in-place, independent of the external rotation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cocheese 0 #4 November 25, 2007 They just rotate the lights in a timing sequence so they look cool like a UFO. Aliens gots to have da bling. They call it meepzap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnRich 4 #5 November 25, 2007 QuoteSo, why would they have an externally rotating shell and under what circumstance could that possibly make any sense either? Beats the heck out of me. I ain't no expert in alien propulsion technology. Maybe billvon knows. But as advanced as they are, if they exist, then certainly they have a darned good reason for it. If the cavemen saw us zipping around in cars at 60 mph, they would probably say; "Why are they in such a hurry? In what circumstances could that possibly make any sense?" Cavemen don't have the perspective to understand our modern life. And we don't have the perspective to understand alien life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The caveman -might- have a bit of difficulty understanding the function of the WHEELS initially, but even then he'd probably quickly figure out how they are physically advantageous. Contrast that with how UFOs are typically depicted.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyshrek 0 #7 November 26, 2007 i am watching that right now. I do believe in ET life. If we cn put someone on the moon why can't other life do the same.

I for one do believe there is lif on other systems. ThT IS JUST MY OPINON. Breaking the speed of sound was something completely different than breaking the speed of light. Humans broke the speed of sound a LONG time ago, far earlier than the 50s. We broke it with simple artillery. Forget breaking the speed of light, just getting TO the speed of light, on the other hand, requires, by definition, an infinite amount of energy. That simply doesn't exist.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 3 #15 November 26, 2007 Do you understand what the word infinite means? Take the largest number you can possibly imagine . . . and multiply that by itself, then continue to do that until you can't possibly imagine any number larger than that . . . then add 1 and start the process over again. quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
