Skeptics shrug off tales of UFOS while enthusiasts devour obscure reports. The night sky is full of heavenly bodies, speculation and the yet to be discovered.

Two thousand years ago mankind had scientists, mathematicians, biologists and unlimited resources.Why hadn't man invented the internet, the telephone and the space shuttle?

Man built the pyramids of Egypt thus displaying the capability and the will necessary to produce anything that we have in today's society.

The only hindrance was, available knowledge at the time. In other words there was a learning curve. But a learning curve is arguably superficial. We have in our society today those whom we call child geniuses.

These young children learn remarkably faster than even the most astute students.

Skeptics point out that even if extra terrestrial vessels exist, the chances of one traveling to earth is mathematically and physically impossible. They frown and reiterate that the vessel would have to travel several times the speed of light to have the remotest chance of bathing in earths' atmosphere. That is simply impossible on several levels.

Perhaps the truth lies some where in the middle. For instance, lets look at a bird. The bird's structure make it ideal for flying as a fish's structure is ideal for swimming under water.

We have observed and adapted these principles making vessels that travel many times faster than birds or fish in the air under the sea or on the sea.

But let's back up for a moment. Some might part company here but this next point is interesting. Could it be that just as the air is suitable for the bird and the water is suitable for the fish, that the architect of the universe has designed the universe for travel?

Planets travel in orbits governed by gravitational pull. Light travels through space. Could it be that there are actual “Corridors” in the universe predestined for space travel?

Some may scoff but two thousand years ago intelligent men and women would have scoffed at a space shuttle.Could it be that discovering these corridors and learning what is necessary to navigate them may issue in a quantum leap?

And finally, suppose someone has already beat us to the punch!

Scientists tell us that as titillating as it may sound, these things are on the verge of the supernatural. Perhaps the origin of these things may be supernatural but the premise may simply be man continuing on in his learning curve.

There was an airing on the History Channel called Ancient Aliens. It was quite interesting. Some things were a stretch but others made one think.

In ancient times there were no cameras. None the less it seems the residence of that time recorded pictures on walls of stone,etc. Whether painted or carved several had remarkable resemblances to vehicles far beyond that era.

If by a culmination of events we actually experience close encounters of a third kind how will this play out on the world stage?

Perhaps there is more to this than what meets the eye.

It has been proven many times that sometimes fact is stranger than fiction. In the end analysis may it be that God envisioned man one day exploring this vast universe and in doing so rediscovers the glory of God?
