I have never seen a UFO or had encounters of the third type - or whatever these encounters are called. However, according to Dr Drake's mathematical calculations, it is a 100% mathematical fact that we are not alone in this vast universe. And I will agree. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is one of trillions of galaxies in this vast universe. Therefore, I think it's very unlikely that living creatures can only be found on Planet Earth. What I can't quite understand is the reason why so many UFO sightings were reported in China within a few months!
Here's what to do if you see a UFO

The Mutual UFO Network, or MUFON, has compiled guidelines for witnesses to report UFO sightings.
1. Remain calm. But protect yourself from any hazards, real or perceived. Be prepared to take evasive action to get out of the object's way.
2. Be objective. Not every UFO is extraterrestrial; eliminate other possibilities first. Only after that should you consider that what you saw might be a true UFO.
3. Use a camcorder or camera to record the event. Try to keep reference points in the field of view, as this will aid in analyzing the film. If you do not have a recording device, then draw pictures of what you saw.
4. Tape your tale. If you have a tape recorder, record your description of the event as it happens. Include reference points. If you don't have a tape recorder, write down your observations immediately.
5. Get other witness observations. Ask other witnesses to write or record their observations, but do not discuss the event with them until after your observations have been recorded.
6. Leave the area alone. If the UFO left some trace of its presence, do not disturb the area around it and restrict access to the site. Photograph the area around the site before you enter, and note the exact position of everything. Take close-up photos or video of the evidence before touching it.
7. Gauge the size. If the sighting is from a distance, at an arm's length, what would it take to cover the object? A quarter? A penny? A dime?
8. Gauge the distance. Try to judge the distance from you to the object, the object's altitude and its speed. Was it across the street or was it over the next field? Was it treetop level or a few hundred feet up? Did it cross the sky in five seconds or five minutes?
9. Record any encounter. Should you encounter some type extraterrestrial being associated with the craft, be prepared to protect yourself. From a safe distance, in a concealed position, photograph or videotape the being. If you are unable to safely get photos of the being, draw and write down a description as soon as it is safe to do so.
10. Report your experience. Immediately report the event to a UFO research origination for investigation.

Great post and well supported with scientific evidence. Yet, this evidence is not very convincing for me... I believe in pure coincidence. What if the China ufo was nothing but a meteor? And hence all previous "sightings" in China - considering the area is quite sensitive to meteors?

What would be a far-fetched assumption is to claim that life doesn't exist outside Earth precisely because the universe is so vast. It's also very likely that intelligent life like that of humans also exists.

Ooooh I LOVE this!! I love everything UFO-related. I totally believe they are "real".

I certainly believe UFOs exist. There has been evidence of such sightings and scientific proof. I'm just wondering whether they are craft hovering in the air due to some kind of anti-gravitational technology or whether they also have occupants coming from another planet...

Hello I do believe in U F Os.One think worries me it is a long time since any one on earth sow one.
I have seen UFOs twice.Once when it landed in the desert near to Sharja air port Sharja emirates which is a part of United Arab emirates. Just of a sudden all lights went of even the car I was driving was out of any electricity. so I parked aside watching what is going one the UFO was may be 500meters away from me.I was going on the side of the fence ,near to the runway.
It didn't put off their power stood there for may be 20minuets and SWIFT off faster than some one can recognize it.
Before this by tow days it landed in Kuwait. for about an hour or so.
Some scientists believe they come searching for water sources.
But what doubt me is when it flew on our sight coming to Beirut one morning why didn't the electricity power went off in the airplane that what we were worried about by the way I always fly zero class I sit on the jump seat behind the captain in the cockpit.
Historically and religious meaning the first UFO was known the Cart of fire which came and took St Elie .>>>. St Elias to the heaven as it was written in the books.
This is a cart but the U F O s we see or people talk about are round as a sphere.which flies side way .The good thing about me in Sharja I didn't feel afraid or any bad feeling I was waiting to see how they look like if they ever went out of the vessel .Wish you a rainy weekend we need it to be rainy this time.God Bless
With All my LOve Walid.

Why in China? I think because they export now days a bunch of various products in the whole world, it's time to export and this kind of stuff to the universe!! :):) Enjoy your weekend and don't be panic!:):)

Why are UFOs unidentified and do not match any of our aerodynamic technologies? I believe this is because alien technology is probably several thousand years in advance of anything that we have here on Earth and that we would probably not understand how it worked anyway. Imagine giving one of today's Personal Notebook computers to Isaac Newton. Would he be able to work out how a microprocessor worked? I think not. Even the most brilliant of our scientists would have a job trying to reverse engineer this technology.

"At the beginning of the new millennium, China is astir with sightings of otherworldly visitors. Such sightings are treated with unexpected seriousness in this country usually straightjacketed by its communist rulers." - Associated Press, January 2, 2000. I believe that UFOs are part of Chinese superstitions... It's hard for me to believe in UFOs.

It’s official. What the conspiracy theorists have been saying for years is true: There are UFOs out there in space — operated by the US military, and manufactured by Boeing in El Segundo, California at a cost of over $1.9 billion. ~ Hugs, Mark

Moi, je ne crois pas aux OVNIs: Je n'en ai pas encore vu un! :-)

I don't think that we are alone in the universe but I am a bit sceptical about UFOs - I mean if they are real or not ..

I don't believe in aliens or UFOs. I think that in all these trillions of galaxies, the only intelligent form of life is the human kind. If "aliens" had developed technologies much more advanced than ours, they would have surely found a way to either communicate with us amicably or attack us. I refuse to believe that an intelligent being outside Earth wouldn't like to live on such a beautiful planet as ours!

I really can't believe that we are the only intelligent beings in the whole universe. UFOs exist and so do aliens. I even believe that aliens are living among us, looking like us, speaking and behaving like us but we can't know it. Once I met someone at my workplace who had a very strange attitude: he kept asking stupid questions like "Can we store meat in the freezer?" or "Why are trees green and not red or black?" Honestly!!! I had the feeling I was talking to an alien/ extraterrestrian!

I can't be sure about the China UFO sightings but, regardless, I can't believe we're alone in the universe.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:05 PM
I also believe that intelligent life off Earth exists!
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:06 PM
I also believe UFOs are real and that it's very likely some kind of life exists in outer space.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:08 PM
What do you mean, Lakis? Can UFOs hover in the air without any occupants?
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:10 PM
I'm not sure I'd have the courage to sit there and wait like you did, Walid. I think I'd have run away!!! For some reason UFOs and aliens cause some fear. I wonder why.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:33 PM
Hmmm ... a way of advertising their national product? Interesting! :-)
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:35 PM
Jim, why do we almost invariably assume that aliens have developed such an advanced technology that we can't understand? What if their technology is not as advanced as ours?
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:40 PM
Why not, Sophia? There have been sightings and recordings - not only in China but in various other countries as well.

Thanks for posting this link, Mark.

Moi non plus mais j'y crois!!! Bonne Semaine!
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:46 PM
I haven't seen one yet, but I think they're real!
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:47 PM
I would like to believe that intelligent beings don't make war! Am I naive? But I agree that aliens can be either friendly or hostile. Remains to be seen in the ensuing years.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:52 PM
Thanks a million for sharing your experience, Karolina.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 10, 2010 at 07:53 PM
Of course they can. Many UFO sightings have been reported but hardly anyone has been able to describe the occupants - if there were any. This leads me to believe that there are no occupants in UFOs although I have my doubts.

Hello I was waiting E. T. to come down.God Bless.
Love you till time stop.

I would be naive to think we are alone in this universe.

Ah right! I hope all aliens are like ET!
Posted by: Anastasia | October 12, 2010 at 08:54 PM
Hi Mark. Thanks for the link.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 12, 2010 at 08:55 PM
Je n'en ai pas encore vu un , non plus, mais je refuse de croire que nous sommes seuls dans ce vaste univers.
Posted by: Anastasia | October 12, 2010 at 08:59 PM
I couldn't agree more, Kofla. I believe that there is intelligent extraterresrian life.
