I've always been interested in Extraterrestrial life - I wonder if any exists out there in space!
Have you ever heard of the Drake Equation? It talks about how likely it is that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe.
No, I haven't! Please tell me more!
It was written in 1961, and it was originally designed to start conversation at the very first SETI meeting!
Awesome!  When I was a kid I used to watch a tv show called My Favorite Martian - that'd be cool if Martians were already among us!
Depending on who you ask, they already are! Science fiction might not be all that crazy when you think about certain political figures, lol.
LOL!  Isn't there supposedly some captured extraterrestrials locked up at Area 51?  Or is that all just a conspiracy?
Probably. I mean, I'm sure you're right, even though the only "official" answer we'll ever get is that it's for developing experimental aircraft.
