Mockery ends where understanding begins.
Another random thing I do is the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, or SETI. And you may be familiar with the movie 'Contact,' which sort of popularized that. It turns out there are real people who go out and search for extraterrestrials in a ...
Most visions of extraterrestrial life are actually steeped in human hubris. The fictional extraterrestrials of 'Star Trek' or a hundred other space operas are less alien than many of my neighbors. And funny, the ones running the place are mostly WASP...
Holly: I love songs about extraterrestrial life, don't you? Mickey: Not when they're sung by extraterrestrials.
Occasionally, I get a letter from someone who is in “contact” with extraterrestrials. I am invited to “ask them anything.” And so over the years I’ve prepared a little list of questions. The extraterrestrials are very advanced, remember. So...
I don't believe in a conspiracy to hide the existence of extraterrestrial life.
There is a very large chunk of our population who firmly believe in extraterrestrials.
Maybe it's impossible to spend time with Patrick Stewart and not have the conversation move to the extraterrestrial.
The fancy that extraterrestrial life is by definition of a higher order than our own is one that soothes all children, and many writers.
For each letter received from a creditor, write fifty lines on an extraterrestrial subject and you will be saved.
I'm frequently asked, "Do you believe there's extraterrestrial intelligence?" I give the standard arguments- there are a lot of places out there, the molecules of life are everywhere, I use the word billions, and so on. Then I say it would be astonis...
I imagine if aliens came down to Earth, they'd actually be quite tall; people seem to get everything right about extraterrestrials but the size!
I sing about UFOs and extraterrestrials, and so I designed a UFO fashion. It includes science-fiction bikinis and Bermuda Triangle shorts.
The Federal government does not have any information about extraterrestrial life to conceal, and there are no secret projects for me to investigate.
Me and Katy look adorkable in extraterrestrial highway shirts. You would just look stupid. You can thank me later.
The total funding of SETI (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) in the U.S. is 0.0003 percent of the tax monies spent on health and human services. And it's not even tax money. The SETI Institute's hunt for signals is funded by donations.
Clearly, unless thinking beings inevitably wipe themselves out soon after developing technology, extraterrestrial intelligence could often be millions or billions of years in advance of us. We're the galaxy's noodling newbies.
For many centuries, humans have speculated that there might be planetary systems around other stars and that there could be extraterrestrial life there and even intelligent being. However, those were simply speculations, and now we have evidence for ...
I prefer to speak of 'interdimensionals' rather than 'extraterrestrials' because the latter has connotations of 'little green men' and all the other cliche responses. Nor does it tell the full story.
SETI scans the stars searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, which pretty much rules out them ever finding an alien politician.
I think human self-hatred may be the great untold story of the millennium. It's the common thread linking deep ecology and animal rights, the love and money we lavish on pets, the uneasy longing for extraterrestrials to be meddling with us.
