I saw an interesting evolution study and diagram a few years back that hypothesized that the direction the human race is currently taking with technology and communication will make our bodies become frail, enlarge our brains and enhance our senses (eyesight specifically).

They theorized that this would leave us looking something like the Gray aliens being reported today. That leads readers to wonder, well if that's what we *might* look like in the distant future, whats to say that they haven't developed time travel technology?
The theory is that due to the race somehow becoming unable to reproduce (No 'witnesses' of aliens I know of report seeing sexual organs) they are attempting to use their journeys back in time to somehow turn back the genetic clock and restore their ability to breed.
I know it is all very 'out there', and I don't believe it. I'm just throwing it out there.
I wish I could find that diagram again. It was fascinating. It had the evolutionary journey (Like the one from ape to man) on it, except it went from man to gray.
Interdimensional hypothesis (IDH or IH — also called the extradimensional hypothesis or EDH) is a theory advanced by Jacques Vallée that unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and related events involve visitations from other "realities" or "dimensions" coexisting separately alongside our own. It is an alternative to the extraterrestrial hypothesis
The development of IDH as an alternative to ETH increased in the 1970s and 1980s with the publication of books by Vallée and J. Allen Hynek. In 1979, Vallée and Hynek advocated the hypothesis in The Edge of Reality: A Progress Report on Unidentified Flying Objects and further, in Vallée's 1980 book Messengers of Deception: UFO Contacts and Cults

Just throwing this out here. I'm wondering why everyone insists "aliens"
are from outer space.
There is a lot of history on Earth that we don't know about.
Is it possible that "aliens" are actually a third humonoid race that developed here in our past? Perhaps there were humans, neanderthals, and "aliens".
Perhaps there was a sentient race that evolved in the oceans. Or the third race evolved much faster than we are and all trace of them were lost through time?
Just wondering if anyone thinks there is any merit to this theory or if it's just nonsense. Please discuss.

you're saying that there's only ONE "alien" species?
and it either has to be FROM outer space (not earth) .. or has to be FROM earth?
what if there are more than once other-than-human intelligent race?
then some can be FROM outer space and some can be FROM here.
as far as your idea goes...
it's been discussed many times.. and is the basis of the "reptilian" speicies theory.. that they evolved from dinosaurs or evolved from a common ancestor.

And I was just wondering how the theory ever got started that they are from another planet.

ace from Earth. Obviously these crafts we see were created by something. And I was just wondering how the theory ever got started that they are from another planet.
