I have a great interest and respect for the practice of Science, but am frustrated by the Scientific Community's continued denial of the considerable evidence that the Earth has been and continues to be visited by extraterrestrial intelligences.
Why don't SETI Scientists, of all people, address the hundreds of historical cases which exist? There is an absurdity to sending signals into outer space while ignoring credible, well-documented visual, radar, and photographic evidence from around the world which indicate that ET's have already contacted US?
Thank you.
