Your joking right? You sent me to a UFO conspiracy sight to look at there star map when i told you its based off information from 1969?? Thats the best you can do really???? try reading the article i included from an astronomer who writes in astronomical journals not ufo sites. See your evidence basically amounts to see there are aliens wow i dont even know how to talk to someone like that. As i said do some research you find her map is bogus just look at the link i gave you there are others by the way.Your circular argument is astounding to say the least go to an alien conspiracy website to prove aliens exist!!!!

Well, the paper I sent you to does not use data from 1969, and uses NASA NStars database for much of it's data, The planetary data can be found on various astronomy sites and in the HABCAT database, which was also used.
So the information, positioning etc. of the stars in the opening graphic are100% accurate except for Gliese 67...(typo).
And, if you think that data from 1969 is significantly different that it is today, your are very mistaken...stars don't move that much...
And, perhaps you should do your own research on this, I have...that map reflects the accurate positioning of the relevant stars wen viewed from the correct location in space...do you know where that is? Read my paper on Zeta Reticuli and you'll find out.
Seriously, you should read before you condemn.
Many actions reveal much from their reaction.
Yes the Fish map has problems, but he still claimed we have identified "the base": Zeta 1 and Zeta 2 Reticuli, even though the data that identification was based on is now known to be inaccurate.

Ok perhaps your noy understanding the positions were incorrectly plotted of the stars when the information were updated to show their actual positions her map was wrong!

Then Please explain "why" the opening graphic n that paper "looks" so much like the "Hill map".
Do you really think that the values for Right Ascension and Declination are much different from Hip to Gleise to NStars, to any other stellar database? Or perhaps you think that thousandths of a second of arc constitutes a large distance at the ranges of the Hill map stars (main stars). And, did you know that all the main stars are within 75 light years of both Zeta 2 Reticuli AND Sol.
I'm sorry man, but you have no argument that can withstand my database...the stars in the opening graphic are exactly where they are supposed to be according to every star catalog available. The configuration of the stars is a "match" for the original Hill map. Course, then again, IF you try to view those same stars from Earth, there will be no match, the only view is not even near Earth.
You are trying to deny reality.

Yes1 I hear what you are saying. I'm telling you that the data I used is the same data.
If you would like I can use the HIP table in my database (a little work converting strings into the numbers they should be, but oh well) to build you another "map", but I can assure you that it will not produce the results YOU want, and the result will not "look" much different.
Please understand. I have the tools to do relational database "look ups", convert selected data points into 3D coordinates, and plot them in 3D space. That is what I did in the original image. I can then place a "camera" anywhere I choose and render a 2D image.
By the way; I've discussed this with astronomy "types" and the consensus was; "If ET was to give us a map of his space, it would look like this".

PS they do charge for there updated star maps but i think you might want to invest for peace of mind there all over the internet.Also sky chart uses the european data if you want to check them out but its from the earths perspective but you can see the distances of the stars included in her map. And then you will see there not near each other.
One other thing you keep talking about the odds of getting a match did you know there is more than one interpretation of her map? One is by Betty Hill herself depicting the constellation Pegasus she didnt think fish was right. A second is by Charles Atterberg depicting nearby stars, but different ones than Fish uses. A third is by two German UFOlogists, who attempt to match it up with our solar system’s major and minor planets. A fourth is by Yari Danjo, who finds the aliens’ home star system to be Alpha Centauri. Amazing one map matches up to so many places isnt it. Oh and even Carl Sagan himself chimed in way back in the 70s and said her map really doesnt resemble the star system even before we updated our star charts.

Look i understand you put a lot of work into it happens all the time i work in a physics lab i cant count the number of times i had to throw research out the window with new discoveries. In this case the stars just were not where we thought they were. Not to mention the multiple matches i mentioned in my last post maybe its best you try one of those locations. Bottom line is gliese is a bust im not trying to be mean or anything. But her star map depiction was a ruse she created later. I looked and by the way alpha centauri is at least closer to her map and well bettys idea was just wrong.
dragonridr
We can continue there are some other changes since than as well but frankly i already spent to much of my time and a friends in our astronomy department. So instead ill point you to an astronomy blog from a planetarium where a real astronomer looked at her drawings. Ill assume youll not read it and insist your star charts are up to date but hey who knows at least others can figure out the map is bogus.By the way just the fact fish had to alter bettys map discounts it in the first place.

In the blog; Gliese 67 is thrown out due to it being a multiple star system. You need to understand that being a multi-star system does not preclude planets nor life. Zeta Retculi is a binary system, but the stars are separated by a large enough distance (about 0.1 ly). Sirius is a binary system, though it is far to young to sport much by way of life. Its stars get as close as 7AU (if memory serves), while that pushes things a bit, planetary systems are still possible, as well as life. If you look on my map you will notice Gliese 67 isn't used, and has been replaced with Upsilon Andromedae...a near-by "F9" star. Upsilon Andromeda has planets (4).
You should perhaps spend a wee bit more time with this one, it's obvious you have never researched the map at all, nor has your astronomer
Can the Anthra-Andromedans get there via Zeta craft?

Please explain the precision of the "star map"!

How about YOU "put up or shut up"
You say a lot of stuff, you NEVER back any of it up with useful data. and you always dodge, and avoid supplying credible references.
So, NO! most emphatically! YOU show how the map is wrong! You show how my data is wrong!
alternately: shut up.
Oh, and by the way, the subject is "arguments against ET visitation", care to be on topic...just once? I've given a strong argument in favor of visitation, and no one has yet provided better data.

A riposte used when someone calls you a name. Indicates that whatever names or words someone uses in an attempt to offend or insult you, those words will bounce off you, and stick to the name-caller, indicating that he or she is actually indicative of the connotation he or she originally wanted to impart upon you. Also, what I say to Peter to make him cry.
