National Geographic Magazine asks this question;
could there really be life beyond Earth? Through a combination of captivating narrative and scientific facts, author Gloria Skurzynski skillfully demonstrates how the quest for extraterrestrial life is real, widespread, and growing. Experts are studying right now to ”unearth” the truth about alien life. From the SETI program, which searches for radio signals from deep space, to researchers who study organisms that live in extreme environments on Earth, the chase is on! There are even sidebars about top scientists in the field and what inspired them to do work that’s out of this world.

“Skurzynski conveys a strong sense of scientists’ enthusiasm for the search for extraterrestrial life while providing a glimpse of the tenacity, patience, and hope that the search requires. Scientists now regularly find exoplanets within the Milky Way and 403 have been catalogued since 1995. Caleb Scharf, head of Columbia University’s Astrobiology Center states, “…it will not be easy to find life on the planets of other stars. But we now have reason to believe that billions of such planets must exist and that they hold the promise of expanding the scope of human knowledge but also the richness of the human imagination.” Most of the exoplanets found orbit stars within 400 light years of our solar system. The best hunting grounds may be dwarf stars, smaller than the sun. Such stars are plentiful (seven of the ten stars nearest to Earth are M dwarfs) they enjoy long, stable careers, providing a steady supply of sunlight to any life-bearing planets that might occupy their habitable zones. Small stars are like small campfires, where campers must sit close to be comfortable. Scientists are generally locating huge planets much larger than Jupiter or Saturn because they are the easiest to find. Many of the stars have Solar systems composed of multiple planets. Rocky planets within the habitable zone with temperatures similar to earth are likely. Thanks to National Geographic Dec. 2009.
Why Are They Here?
Editor’s Note: Although the National Geographic article does not mention visitors from these other planets, it clearly lays out the fact they might exist. Additionally, these intelligent life forms would most likely come from planets orbiting dwarf stars with dimmer light. These intelligent life forms would likely need larger eyes to capture the light. Often abductees report aliens with large eyes and gray skin indicating their star does not send out enough ultraviolet rays to tan the skin and provide adequate Vitamin D. I assume that aliens and humans have similar health requirements, since we appear to be able to successfully reproduce together. The Bible and many ancient scriptures tell us: “Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward — when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.” Genesis 6.
Gray skin in humans is an indication of poor health. The most obvious question is why are the aliens here? We can speculate their sun is dying or they have an over population of their planet that is causing them to seek new planets to settle. The aliens know we enjoy a wonderful Earth and a stable Sun that provides energy, and sends us life giving light for thousands of plants and animals, and billions of healthy intelligent people. The sun sends us:
Infrared Light: Infrared waves (above 700nm) include electric waves, radio waves, infrared and shortwave infrared, but only this last type reaches the Earth. Shortwave infrared waves, which give us heat, make up about 49 percent of the solar radiation we receive on Earth.
Visible Light: Visible rays (400nm to 700nm) cause illumination we can see as colors, including red, yellow, green, blue and violet. These account for about 46 percent of the Earth’s solar radiation.
Ultraviolet Light: Ultraviolet rays (200 nm to 400 nm) comprise the remaining 4 or 5 percent radiation we receive on Earth. Of all invisible rays—including cosmic rays, gamma rays, X-rays and three forms of ultraviolet light—only two of the ultraviolet light rays actually penetrate the Earth’s atmosphere. These are the same two invisible light rays used in tanning equipment. Ultraviolet light rays are energy waves that are shorter in length than visible light rays. Because of this, the human eye cannot see ultraviolet light. However, we can see the effects of ultraviolet light, such as tan skin, on the human body. Three categories of ultraviolet light exist:
Ultraviolet A. UVA rays are the longest (320nm to 400nm).Ultraviolet B. UVB rays are shorter than UVA rays (290nm to 320nm).Ultraviolet C. UVC rays are the shortest (200nm to 290nm).
Of these three categories of UV rays, only UVA and UVB pass through the Earth’s atmospheric filter. More UVA hits Earth than UVB because the filter prevents the passage of shorter wavelengths of UVB that resemble UVC. If UVC light also passed through, it would have devastating effects on this planet, which is why the depletion of the ozone layer in the atmosphere is of great concern. UVA and UVB light waves cause skin to tan. Abductees have frequently reported that alien medicine is based on blue and green light and light rays are replicated in special lamps to promote healing. (UFOs are often visible in infrared or ultraviolet light.
The aliens may have illnesses and lack vitamins such as D, and need to migrate to improve their DNA, genes and the overall health of their bodies. The lack of proper sunlight can cause chronic diseases, increase cardiovascular risk, and cognitive impairment, cause asthma in children, tumors, and bone weakness. Liver or kidney problems may cause changes in skin pigmentation due to the accumulation of toxins in the body. Gray skin also indicates chronic fatigue, and anemia. Not getting enough sunshine may hinder the intake of calcium and phosphoric, causing osteoporosis. Research suggests that Vitamin D could play a role in the prevention and treatment of a number of different conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, and glucose intolerance. It supports key mineral absorption and metabolism, regulates normal cell differentiation and proliferation, promotes insulin sensitivity and blood sugar regulation and regulates over 200 genes through throughout the body.
Our body cannot create vitamin D on its own. We must obtain our required Vitamin D by sun exposure as little as a couple of hours per week — provided the UVB rays are strong enough. Our sun provides most of the Vitamin D needed for a healthy body, but a dying or weak sun may not. There are also a few foods we can eat to obtain Vitamin D but the list isn’t very long, and you have to eat a lot of them to avoid Vitamin D deficiency. Most of the natural sources for Vitamin D are fish and fish oils, cod liver oil, herring, catfish, salmon, sardines, mackerel, caviar, egg yolks, shiitake mushrooms, cheese, fortified milk and beef liver. There have been numerous reports of aliens taking fish from the sea and capturing cattle and animals. Vitamin D works in concert with other nutrients and hormones in your body to support healthy bone renewal — an ongoing process of mineralization and demineralization which, when awry, shows up as rickets in children and osteomalacia (“soft bones”) or osteoporosis (“porous bones”) in adults. We can assume aliens need various vitamins and minerals as we do for proper health and their reproduction program.
Researchers are discovering that D also promotes normal cell growth and differentiation throughout the body, working as a key factor in maintaining hormonal balance and a healthy immune system. It appears that calcitriol actually becomes part of the physical composition of cells, assisting in the buildup and breakdown of healthy tissue — in other words, regulating the processes that keep you well. In Boston, Massachusetts, for instance, there is insufficient ultraviolet radiation in the sunlight for skin to make adequate amounts of Vitamin D from early November to early March. On the South Island of New Zealand, vitamin D deficiency is a real risk from early May to early September. In Calgary, Alberta, residents don’t get enough vitamin D even if they get daily sun exposure from October until nearly April. And in northern Europe, Alaska, and Russia, the problem is even worse. Doctors claim 85% of their patients come up with a vitamin D deficiency. It seems logical to assume an alien race would have similar requirements for a healthy life.
Alien Graveyard Allegedly Found in Rwanda
Erik Van Datiken reports, “Scientists say they have found an extraterrestrial cemetery in central Africa that is at least 500 years old! The Swiss anthropologist Dr. Hugo Childs, “There must be 200 bodies buried there and not a single one of them is human,” told reporters in Kigali, Rwanda. “They are in amazing state of preservation to be so old,” he added. “Soil and tissue samples indicate the bodies have been in the ground since the 1400s. We’re now trying to figure out where they came from – and what killed them.” Dr. Childs and his colleagues reportedly discovered the alien graveyard on a routine survey of the Rwandan jungle. Excavation reportedly revealed alien bodies – stacked in fives in a jungle clearing. “The creatures themselves were much taller and skinnier than humans,” said the expert. “They stood about 7 feet tall and they were not any bigger around than small sapling trees; their heads were larger than the average man’s and they had no mouth, nose or eyes to speak of.” I assume that they communicated with one another telepathically and moved around like bats with some kind of biological radar.” Without further study there is no way to tell for sure what killed the extraterrestrials. But Dr. Childs speculated that the 200 aliens were part of a single landing party that encountered a deadly flu virus. “Some of them must have survived because there is no evidence of a spaceship to be found,” said Dr. Childs. “Of course, as our excavation effort continues, there’s no telling what we may run across.” Dr. Childs would not take reporters to the site, for fear of the bodies being disturbed. “It will change the world,” Dr. Childs said. Weekly World News will continue to provide updates as they develop.
