calling it "extraterestial" just made it " politicly correct " for people to work / reverse engienere it ,
What about before that and the sightings going back to ancient Egypt ?
Any answers for that?

Asking "What if" is what has gotten us from being creatures depending on what we found to survive, to creatures using stone tools, to a race that has succeeded in achieving space travel. It is called the scientific method. Say what if, as in a hypothesis, find a way to test it, and then evaluate the results. So we haven't figured out a way to test if aliens have visited our planet, I would still rather spend time on such speculation than watching the boob tube.
If you look at how old our galaxy is, and compare that with how long it took us to go from chipping stones to make sharp tools, to landing on the moon, it is easy to see that is a very tiny amount of time in relation to the age of our galaxy. I would say it is very highly probably that other planets succeeded evolving an intelligent species capable of space flight far sooner than us.
However, if another planet succeeded in developing intelligent life with capabilities at least equal to our own 50,000 years earlier than life developed here on Earth, than that would put them incredibly further ahead of us in technological development, which means they could have been exploring space for thousands of years before we even learned to harness electricity.
While we as a species might not be around 50,000 years from now, I think the odds are more than in our favor that we will still be here, and that we will continue to evolve as a species, and our technology will continue to evolve as well. We are at a very critical point in human development. In the last century we have evolved to the point where our technology, not to mention the expanse of our numbers as a species, is threatening all life on Earth. Now is when we need to learn how to take responsibility and become goods stewards of this beautiful vineyard that God has given us. While we are slow to turn in this direction, we are indeed making these changes, and the effort to make these changes to protect our environment is growing and expanding.
In addition, I personally believe that it is possible to travel much faster than the speed of light, and that God does play dice, and in fact that our very existence is a roll of the dice.

I've always thought it was disgusting that our astronauts and missions are being driven by clunky and dangerous technology.. Many good men and women have been lost... and here's the military whisking in and out of space like it's nothing.

From what I have read about the discovery of other planets in our galaxy, is that it looks like there are a great many of them. We have only recently developed the technology to detect other planets around other stars, and even then our capability to do this is very limited. Still, from what we have found it looks like planets are abundant in our universe.
Once again, apply Oscams Razor, considering how many heavenly bodies are floating around our sun, chances are very likely that almost all stars have planetary systems.
It is also very highly probably that every solar system has at least one planet the right distance from the star to support life, and some solar systems, possibly two.
The evolutionary advantage of intelligence for survival means that the development of intelligence is most likely another universal.
While we are the only species on Earth that has mastered technology, we are not the only intelligent species, and not the only species who uses tools.
Their is even a reasonable possibility that other intelligent species have already developed on Earth, but keep themselves hidden from us, so as not to interfere in our development as a species.
Being that we went from sailing ships to space flight in a little over a century, if you count the steam engine as the beginning, who know what we can accomplish in a thousand years, or what life on other planets have already accomplished.

I'm almost sure if the right detection techniques were utilized
we would know more.
However I feel the techniques are from someone that his
theories and knowledge can not be used or divulge the
things like free energy and anti gravity that will be discovered.

This all makes perfect since if i was the government i had aircraft decades ahead of the other countries they would need to be flown tested and supported meaning they will be seen. Since i cant hide them why not put alot of dis info about aliens out there as your cover story? What do you think?
Mr. Don Phillips, Lockheed Skunkworks, USAF, and CIA Contractor
________________________________________
Don Phillips was in the Air Force at Las Vegas Air Force Base during an event when UFOs were seen moving at enormous speeds near Mt. Charleston, northwest of Las Vegas. In addition, he worked with Kelly Johnson at the Lockheed Skunkworks — on design and construction of the U-2 and the SR-71 Blackbird. He testifies that we not only have these extraterrestrial devices, but have also achieved tremendous technological advances from their study. He states that in the 1950s and 1960s, NATO did research into the origin of ET races, and disseminated reports to the leaders of various countries. Mr. Phillips further states that there are records and filmed documentation of meetings in California in 1954 between ETs and leaders of the USA. He lists a few of the technologies we were able to develop because of the ETs: computer chips, lasers, night vision, bulletproof vests, and concludes, “Are these ET people hostile? Well, if they were hostile, with their weaponry they could have destroyed us a long time ago — or could have done some damage.” Mr. Phillips now develops technologies that can help eliminate environmental pollutants and reduce the need for fossil fuels: energy generation systems that use natural energies from planet Earth.
He was almost as white as a sheet. He took one step down the steps and he looked at me and he said, did you see those? And, I said, yeah, we’ve been watching them- some of the fellows have been watching them for the last four to five minutes. And, I’ve seen them for a little more than 90 seconds. He says, we saw them on the radar screen and we documented them. He says, they are not bogeys. They are not apparitions. They are real solid objects. And, of course, they would have to be in order to get a fix with radar, the kind of radar we used there, it would have to be a solid object. And, it’s not that we tracked them with the radar- they would go in and out of the signal and register that way. He finally documented that there were six to seven. The speeds that we estimated were also estimated by the radar operators and their scopes.
SG: What did they estimate?
DP: They estimated, around, 3,800 to 4,200 miles per hour equivalent, ground speed. These things are darting across the sky. First they look like a star. And then they move, in any direction or make any kind of a straight line, or just hover. …
These UFOs were huge. And they would just come to a stop and do a 60 degree, 45 degree, 10 degree turn, after stopping. And, then immediately reverse this action. …
I think a lot of this has been well documented by Colonel Corso. You know, who was there with him? Well, there were a lot of people there with him. But a lot of the things that are said in the book by Colonel Corso, I can verify, corroborated by people that I have worked with and do work with now. So, I can say what I know about it is very true. The pathway that it took, that’s another story. We talk about hidden technologies and why don’t they let people know about it? Well, they hide it from the public. Well, hey, there is probably a good reason for some of it.
