=== Did Aliens Visit Earth (01:03) ===

[00:00:00]  So you don't believe that we've been visited?
[00:00:02]  Oh, I don't know.
[00:00:03]  We may have well been visited.
[00:00:05]  In fact, we don't know the history of Earth.
[00:00:08]  Documented human history is only 8,000 years old.
[00:00:13]  And the question is, what introduced life here on Earth?
[00:00:17]  Maybe it was an interstellar gardener.
[00:00:20]  We just don't know that.
[00:00:22]  And as far as we can do is to basically monitor the sky and check if there are any visitors to our backyard.
[00:00:32]  That's the minimum we can do.
[00:00:34]  We've been searching for sixty-five years for radio signals, but that's just like waiting for a phone call.
[00:00:41]  In fact, we do not use radio communication as much as we did a century ago.
[00:00:45]  So I think checking for objects is a new frontier that is enabled by the next generation of sensors that we are starting to employ right now.
[00:00:56]  And this offers us a great opportunity to discover things that we've never known about before.
