Kazakhstan building alien embassy

[Rebelkid]

ASTANA – Kazakhstan is attempting to be the first nation to publicly welcome extraterrestrial visitors!

According to Express K, a Kazakh newspaper, the Republic of Kazakhstan is preparing to build the world's first UFO base and alien embassy. It is being reported that the government has allocated a large portion of land near the city of Almaty for the project. The plans include a UFO landing pad, guesthouse and translation service. How the translation program will be created was not made clear.

Ufologists are applauding the government, which openly believes that contact with extraterrestrials is inevitable and is attempting to establish the nation as forward-thinking. Others are criticizing the project as being an obvious tourism ploy.

So why Kazakhstan, of all places? It has long been rumored that an underwater UFO base exists in the Derbent Hollow of the Caspian Sea, which sits on Kazakhstan's border. This has even been confirmed by the head of neighboring Azerbaijan's national Aerospace Agency, Fuad Gasimov, who worked for the old USSR science academy while they were secretly monitoring UFO activity.

According to a Baku Sun newspaper article published in 2002, Gasimov said the Soviet organization charted UFOs. "The organization sent an expedition to Baku and the Absheron Peninsula, where they discovered UFOs bases around the Nardaran and Pirshagi districts and around the Siyazan water spring. The entrances to these bases, he says, are found deep underground."

Will these visitors come out of the dark and begin publicly visiting Kazakhstan? Or is this all just a publicity ploy?

Kazakhstan? For real? I mean, I am used to Americans doing such crazy stuff because they have loads of cash to throw around but Kazakhstan???? I mean the last time I heard about the country (before our nuclear deal with them), it was borrowing billions of dollars from Russia for running its economy straight in one piece and is a seriously hampered and land-locked country, even if it is economically better than other central Asian states. Why is it doing all these nonsensical stunts for? I mean if publicity is what they want, there are other ways like China's Olympics bid and stuff.

I feel that Central Asian states shouldn't waste their time and money on such matters since they are land-locked, lack primary resources (barring oil, gas and nuclear material) and have limited port access only through Russia's far east. They should focus on having a more stable and less corrupt economic development if at all they want to be recognized anywhere in the world. SCO is simply an organization that puts Russia and China in glamour and both giants hog all the attention.

Odds are if aliens find earth first then there are more chances that they will be hostile.

^ Too much Independence Day, buddy? :happy_2: They would be in for a big heap of trouble if they get violent in Russia's area of power. Roosies don't take mindless violence too kindly:emot180:.

Aliens might have problem in land invasion but they could easily smash us from orbit.

Also this is not my claim...steven hawkings said we would be in trouble if aliens landed on top of us one fine day out of the blue.

IF Aliens would have the ability to fly here, they would be highly evolved beings both technologically and morally, i don;t think we would be dead
Hell, most prolly we have been visited by aliens but they just don't wanna have first contact with a buncha creatures who love fighting each other..

They would not have probs in land invasion too, if they wanna kill us, they would just spread a deadly disease or something to wipe us out and use all the infrastructure and resources as theirs..

that is not land invasion. they'd be foolish to send down an army to kill people and occupy land. they will most likely fire from orbit or will spread disease in the atmosphere which will kill us.

we dont know whether aliens will have moral ethics or not ? it could only be a human feature for all we know.

Don't talk to aliens, warns Stephen Hawking

THE aliens are out there and Earth had better watch out, at least according to Stephen Hawking. He has suggested that extraterrestrials are almost certain to exist — but that instead of seeking them out, humanity should be doing all it that can to avoid any contact.

The suggestions come in a new documentary series in which Hawking, one of the world's leading scientists, will set out his latest thinking on some of the universe's greatest mysteries.

Alien life, he will suggest, is almost certain to exist in many other parts of the universe: not just in planets, but perhaps in the centre of stars or even floating in interplanetary space.

Hawking's logic on aliens is, for him, unusually simple. The universe, he points out, has 100 billion galaxies, each containing hundreds of millions of stars. In such a big place, Earth is unlikely to be the only planet where life has evolved.

"To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational," he said. "The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like."

The answer, he suggests, is that most of it will be the equivalent of microbes or simple animals — the sort of life that has dominated Earth for most of its history.

One scene in his documentary for the Discovery Channel shows herds of two-legged herbivores browsing on an alien cliff-face where they are picked off by flying, yellow lizard-like predators. Another shows glowing fluorescent aquatic animals forming vast shoals in the oceans thought to underlie the thick ice coating Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter.

Such scenes are speculative, but Hawking uses them to lead on to a serious point: that a few life forms could be intelligent and pose a threat. Hawking believes that contact with such a species could be devastating for humanity.

He suggests that aliens might simply raid Earth for its resources and then move on: "We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn't want to meet. I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonise whatever planets they can reach."

He concludes that trying to make contact with alien races is "a little too risky". He said: "If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans."

The completion of the documentary marks a triumph for Hawking, now 68, who is paralysed by motor neurone disease and has very limited powers of communication. The project took him and his producers three years, during which he insisted on rewriting large chunks of the script and checking the filming.

John Smithson, executive producer for Discovery, said: "He wanted to make a programme that was entertaining for a general audience as well as scientific and that's a tough job, given the complexity of the ideas involved."

Hawking has suggested the possibility of alien life before but his views have been clarified by a series of scientific breakthroughs, such as the discovery, since 1995, of more than 450 planets orbiting distant stars, showing that planets are a common phenomenon.

So far, all the new planets found have been far larger than Earth, but only because the telescopes used to detect them are not sensitive enough to detect Earth-sized bodies at such distances.

Another breakthrough is the discovery that life on Earth has proven able to colonise its most extreme environments. If life can survive and evolve there, scientists reason, then perhaps nowhere is out of bounds.

Hawking's belief in aliens places him in good scientific company. In his recent Wonders of the Solar System BBC series, Professor Brian Cox backed the idea, too, suggesting Mars, Europa and Titan, a moon of Saturn, as likely places to look.

Similarly, Lord Rees, the astronomer royal, warned in a lecture earlier this year that aliens might prove to be beyond human understanding.

"I suspect there could be life and intelligence out there in forms we can't conceive," he said. "Just as a chimpanzee can't understand quantum theory, it could be there are aspects of reality that are beyond the capacity of our brains."
