UFO-The Greatest Story Ever Denied: Moon Rising

I'm having a really hard time finding the rationale behind "There probably are some type of alien life forms out there" meaning "There probably are some type of alien life forms, and they're visiting us on spaceships."

That seems like such a gargantuan leap in logic it almost makes my head spin. Anyone who cares to look at the laws of probability will tell you it's very possible that there's some type of life out there. The problem is whether or not that life is intelligent (less likely, but sure, still possible), whether it can travel through space at a rate that they could actually reach us (Much less likely, but why not, still probable!), whether they have actually had a reason to look, and that they've found this pinpoint of nothing in the universe.

Just because it might exist doesn't make it automatic that they're out there looking for us. That just makes you look as close-minded and self-important as the people that say Humans are the end-all be-all intelligent species and there's nothing else out there.

The first controversy, alien life, intelligent or otherwise, has yet to be proven. Baby steps, guys.

LO Images were taken on 75 mm film, processed on board then scanned by VIDEO not DIGITAL.

The ones showing the 'smudges' are the NAVY Clementine images from 1994 THOSE were digital

I thought the Clementine smudges were just the result of the version 1.5 Clementine image browser, and that the smudging problem had been largely fixed in the version 2.0 image browser. So the smudges were browser smudges and not image smudges.

And I've never seen any credible evidence of any alien or even human bases on the moon. It's a study in psychology to see people gobble up this alien base fantasy.

I was not talking about Hubble not being able to photograph the Moon, I was talking about the idea most people have that Hubble is a very powerful telescope, with the ability to take very high definition photos of the Moon, and that's not true.
