In the opinion of the exobiologists and also of some astronomers, it is very

probable that life has arisen in other worlds; The reason for this statement is
that the laws of physics and chemistry are the same everywhere. The
phenomena that gave rise to life on Earth, many consider that they can be
repeated in another place, where the conditions are similar enough.

But, because information about such places with similar conditions is not yet
available (for example, extrasolar planets similar to Earth), the question
about the existence of extraterrestrial life still remains without a clear or
scientifically proven answer.

According to the skeptics, and despite the fact that many people claim to
have known them or even to be one of them, there is currently no reliable
proof that confirms the existence of extraterrestrial life. It is maintained that
most of the evidence provided are testimonies of alleged sightings or
abductions, or photographs, which do not in themselves represent
irrefutable evidence; nevertheless, a variable sector of the population
(changing according to the country and culture) throughout the world,
believes in the truthfulness of the statements of many of the so-called
witnesses.
Currently, the idea of extraterrestrial is associated with that of the UFO
phenomenon, but this has not always been the case. And although the
sighting of strange vehicles and aerial phenomena is perhaps very old, its
association with extraterrestrials is historically very recent. Perhaps the case
that led to associate UFOs with aliens is the case of Kenneth Arnold, who
claimed to have sighted "flying saucers" near Mount Rainier on June 24,
1947, in the state of Washington, United States. After making their
statements public, many people reported having witnessed sightings in the
United States, a phenomenon that has not stopped until the present, and
that extends to the length and breadth of the planet.

The aliens the most frequent form refer to cases of extraterrestrial abduction
and popular culture. This typology describes humanoid aliens approximately
90 to 150 cm high; skin of gray color, with large heads, thin arms and legs, big
and oval black eyes, and presuming that they are highly intelligent and even
that the psychic powers.

For example, the natal body of these hypotheticals is irradiated by a very

weak solar radiation. On the other hand, the small body and the enormous
head would indicate the intellectual evolution of these beings

According to the descriptions of those who say they have been in contact
with them, these have not been expressed in any kind of emotion or feeling,
which is a characteristic that is usually attributed to the stereotype that,
because of their overdeveloped brains, their intellect would be their more
The latent psychological trait dominant and that has been eliminated in any
trace of human instinct or emotion.

During the 20th century, anecdotes of strange objects in the sky have
increased; These testimonies appear in such proportions that UFO waves are
spoken of in different places and dates. This, together with the diffusion of
science (or the image of science) in popular culture, has promoted in certain
individuals the idea that extraterrestrials are a phenomenon worthy of study
and of a discipline of their own. However, they disagree with those who
consider extraterrestrials as a phenomenon on which there is no evidence
that cannot be refuted and that therefore there can be no science on this
subject, and they are really more interested in the anecdotes of the
testimonies of presumed witnesses and accept as a truth that UFOs are ships
manned by aliens.

The term unidentified flying object, better known by the acronym UFO, refers
to the observation of a flying object, real or apparent, which can not be
identified by the observer and whose origin remains unknown after an
investigation.
The acronym was created to replace the one of "flying saucer", since unlike
this a UFO does not necessarily have to be a technological or manned object
(it can also be a star, a meteorite or an unknown plane), and it has arrived to
transcend beyond simple aerial observations
