Stephen Hawking, one of the most famous scientists of our age, imagined the presence of aliens as accurate. The huge number of planets in the universe made his mathematical brain think about aliens, and it was perfectly rational to him. He also expressed concern if aliens visited the earth, the outcome would be as much as when Columbus landed in America, which did not turn out well for the Native Americans.

Scientists who support him believe in the number of planets and stars. It is doubtful that we are the only form of evolved life. If we can find one fossil on Mars or one little tube worm deep under Europa or Enceladus’ oceans, then the universe is full of life. Some people are wandering around, looking for aliens to justify their imagination.

But all scientists do not believe in aliens. S Neil deGrasse Tyson, American astrophysicist and a planetary scientist, believes Stephen Hawking has watched too many Hollywood movies. He thinks the only aliens in Hollywood are the ones created by Steven Spielberg — ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind’ and ‘E.T.,’ for example. All other aliens are trying to suck our brains out. For him, no astrophysicist would deny the possibility of life. But humans are not creative enough to imagine what life would be like on another planet.

Whether the imaginations about aliens will come true or not, yet we want to believe that it might only be a matter of time before contact is made. Humanity joins with an alien civilization to forge a new future in the infinite cosmos.  

Below you will find some inspirational, wise, and humorous old aliens quotes collected over the years from various sources.

The very existence of an alien, a hypothetical or fictional being from another world, is yet to prove. We see them in Hollywood movies. Scientists are also divided over whether aliens are real. They are searching for aliens on different planets.

Their tools for studying the universe have changed. They are trying to explore the universe, and their ideas about the universe evolved as they developed new astronomical instruments. The invention of a powerful telescope, photography, spectroscopy, and digital technology has revolutionized their view of the universe. We don’t need to travel far. Right from our home computer, we can reach the cosmos without any spaceflight and tours of distant galaxies. Yet, they are unsure what the universe is like and when they will get any proof about alien’s existence.

Average people do it, but they don’t realize that they’re doing it because they are not conscious of the existence of a twin world. When they think of a twin world, they enter into all kinds of mental masturbation, but it has never occurred to them that their fantasies have their origin in a subliminal knowledge that all of us have: that we are not alone.” –Carlos Castaneda

The Aliens escaped their enclosures, while Ripley and the mercenaries attempted to escape and destroy the spaceship Auriga before reaching its destination.

Our fascination with space and space exploration is already manifest.

The incredible leaps in engineering and technology made America’s Apollo missions possible in 1961. The men’s courage who went into space was fueled by the desire to see and know more than ever.

Now we are still fascinated by space and the idea of space travel. Space is a new frontier for mankind, which is attractive and terrifying us in equal measure. People are staring at the stars for ages and pondering if humans like themselves out there. Does life exist somewhere else in our Solar system? Our Galaxy?

Before determining whether there are other planetary systems capable of supporting life, we must first find them.

Life of Alien Quotes You’ll Love to Read

1. I think the surest sign that there is intelligent life out there in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us. –Bill Watterson
2. In very different ways, the possibility that the universe is teeming with life, and the opposite possibility that we are totally alone, is equally exciting.

A few years ago, we didn’t know for sure that any planets at all existed beyond our solar system. Many times our assumptions about planet-ness have turned out to be wrong. But now, we have confirmed about 4,000 exoplanets.

All astronomical research’s ultimate goal is to solve a much more complicated question: are places where life could evolve commonly or vanishingly rare in the universe, leaving us effectively without hope of ever knowing whether another living world exists?

We know the number of the planet is bigger than the number of stars. At least a quarter of them are Earth-size planets in their star’s so-called habitable zone, where conditions are neither too hot nor too cold for life. And there are at least 25 billion places where life could conceivably take hold in our galaxy alone—and our universe is one among trillions. The question now is, how do we find it, and what will happen then?

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins thinks if we ever have contact with extraterrestrial life outside our solar system, it will be intelligent. But our carbon-based planet life may turn to a life based on silicon – robotic, in other words.

Alien beings may be nothing like us – so if and when we meet, it may also transform our understanding of ourselves and the universe we live in.

Alien (1979) is a highly viewed and influential film in the Science Fiction and Horror genres. Ridley Scott directed the film and Dan O’Bannon wrote it.

With only 7 human characters as the astronauts, the film is set upon by a vicious alien. It takes place aboard the ship Nostromo, which was returning to earth in the year 2122. The film was known for its dark and confining camera angles and its effective jump scares, compounding the fear of tight spaces with the fear of the unknown. A richly weird set, along with the terrifying, iconic alien, was at the center of the horrific story.

Alien is a pioneering film in both the science fiction and the horror genres for its inventive use of special effects to repurpose a monster thriller for the future. Combining old horror motifs with new effects and space-age technologies made the film one of the most ingenious and scary movies in contemporary cinema.

Alien marked a dynamic shift in focus towards hyper-realistic, plausible storytelling with the right mixture of special effects and creature prosthetics to elicit pure, sheer terror. It is still a scary movie to watch with plenty of memorable one-liners that fans love to quote.

Final Thoughts on Alien Quotes

Scientific missions are seeking to answer the question, “Is there life in space?” Astrobiologists may find life, but it’s not at all clear they will know it when they see it.

But human imagination has already created several world-famous alien movies and characters. 

Science, technology will go further. These technologies will not allow us to stay home on earth. Our minds will expand our presence throughout the universe to get the answer to our question about the alien.
