this is just a question to you and others here .. you know the planet they recently discovered that it is meant to be the same as ours let's picture that one
NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope recently discovered an Earth-like planet orbiting a nearby star within the habitable zone of our galaxy. Kepler-186f is approximately 500 light-years from Earth in the Cygnus constellation. The habitable zone, also known as the Goldilocks zone, is the region around a star within which planetary-mass objects with sufficient atmospheric pressure can support liquid water at their surfaces. While it has been estimated that there are at least 40 billion Earth-sized planets orbiting in our Milky Way Galaxy, this particular discovery is labeled the first Earth-sized planet to be found in the habitable zone of another star.
What does this mean?
In addition to Kepler-186f, there are 4 other planets that orbit a nearby star within the Kepler-186f system. What this means is that if the nearby star to this planet is similar to our Sun, then the probability of life on this planet exponentially rises.
“We know of just one planet where life exists – Earth. When we search for life outside our solar system we focus on finding planets with characteristics that mimic that of Earth,” said Elisa Quintana, research scientist at the SETI Institute at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., and lead author of the paper published today in the journal Science. “Finding a habitable zone planet comparable to Earth in size is a major step forward.”

It was just a "breading" joke.
Understood, but it brings up the idea as to whether aliens could even live among us being evolved on a different planet with totally different environment.

Greys may have difficulty staying here but the fact that they might explains the existence of hybrids; the hybrids become their agents in this world because they can live here. If they can't live here themselves the whole abduction/hybrid scenario begins to make sense.
You would have a better chance to hybrid a grape vine and humans.

I think we use the term hybrid too easily. Making a hybrid from two totally different species such as a bird and cat that share 80% DNA and see where that gets you, now try it with totally different species from different planets with zero like DNA and completely different evolutionary paths...You would have a better chance to hybrid a grape vine and humans.

Yes that is something I have thought about. But it may not involve cross breeding like horses etc. It may involve gene splicing. Scientists can already do this; inserting genes into the genome. Then again, it may not involve genes at all, it may be psychic. Who knows what kind of gene science the have.

You would indeed. Since we already carry plant genes.

I agree, but we also reach the point of why. Why would a advance alien race that can do all of this and more want to? Seems like a lot of work around goals that would be obsolete for them with the level of technology they would have, so really little need to do it at all. I think about the time an alien race comes to us they do not need us or our planet for anything that they can do just as easily on their own.

I wonder why they've waited so long. After all, they've been here for thousands upon thousands of years.
By now, you'd think the hybrids would be in the majority.

According to Jacobs they are waiting for 'the change'. Everything will be overturned and a new world will emerge. It is in this new world that they desire power.

People do not realize that all life on our planet is related whether it is grass, a fish or a grape vine that still has like 50% of our DNA, and that kind of throws a lot of the alien speculations out the window....hehe
hmm turned my word window into a _
Disagree. Surely, the only thing that proves is that we are far closer related to things we previously didn't expect to be closely related to?edit on 27-12-2015 by Resostone because: I can't find it, but my post seems to say "extra DIV" at the end..extra DIV
