I saw something on this in "Frauds, Myths and Mysteries" but I didn't get the "why" for that particular time being chosen. The book is by Kenneth L. Feder.

Costing me five points to ask this, but enquiring minds, etc.,.

Earth's atmosphere remains in place mainly due to the planet's gravity. By itself though would that be enough to prevent the solar wind from sweeping it away given the billions of years involved? I'm assuming that to some extent Earth's magnetic field helps protect the atmosphere by deflecting the solar wind.

If the above assumptions are correct, how does Venus retain its atmosphere when it has virtually no magnetic field. At first I thought that its atmosphere was significantly denser than ours, but that's not the case.

Whaddaya think....?

Do you think the Earth has been visited by Aliens?

Do you think the Earth is still being visited by these Aliens?

Have you had any encounter with UFO's, Aliens, or abduction?

Does the government know more than it is letting on?

Is the government working with Aliens?

Or is this all mass hysteria?

I've always wondered if it was possible that there is another planet like Earth in our solar system. Couldn't there be a planet the same distance away from the sun as the Earth but on the other side of the sun so we never see it? I've always wondered that and if it was even possible.

I have never seen a ufo - but years ago I went to a local meeting called by ufo investigators. The people there who told their stories seemed genuine - but the things they were saying were rather incredible - an elderly farm couple told of their cattle being cooked to a depth of several inches in their flesh by a ufo - a very scared lady believed she had been repeatedly kidnapped by aliens - a middle aged businessman spoke of stopping on the side of a country road to investigate a light behind a derilict house and then being approached by floating orbs of light to within arms lengh of himself as he stood at the gate. Eek! The people seemed very genuine. What do other people think was going on?

The aliens have been watching you. They have decided to give you one of their craft. Now you can be anywhere in the world in 5 minutes or less. It has a ray gun which can inflict pain or vaporize things. You can also beam things up into the craft. What would you do?

I have found places in Google Earth where I can see dots which I assume are people. Are there any places on Google Earth with better resolution than that?
