Unidentified Flying Objects
This picture was taken in 1956 by a pilot flying over the Canadian
Rockies.
"I had the object in good view for upwards of 45 seconds. It was stationary, with sharply
defined edges. Looked like a shiny silver dollar sitting horizontal. The light emitted
was much brighter than the existing sunlight and overexposed the film causing blurred
edges in the picture... It neither moved nor changed shape while I had it in sight."

Traditional evidence--pictures
Another old picture from the 1950s. These days it is easy to fake
pictures, so they can be explained away quickly. It was more
difficult to produce fake pictures in the 1950s.

We have been leaking signals out to space for the last 100 years,
so any species that lives within a radius of 100 light years from
us will be just starting to hear us
Intelligence gives us the ability to alter the Earth for our short
term survival needs. Long-term is not an issue for us.
