If all the account of UFO sightings are real , then Earth must be the most popular destination in the Universe . Obviously , that ’s a ridiculous anthropocentric feeling , as Dr. Carl Sagan explainsin the must - see 1966 CBS documentaryUFO : Friend , Foe , or Fantasyhosted by Walter Cronkite . Listen to Sagan at the 51:55 mark .
I wish his thoughts link the fly saucer myths with faith . Butlike he say inPale Blue Dot , help is not come from elsewhere .
Our planet is a solitary particle in the heavy enveloping cosmic wickedness . In our obscurity — in all this vastness — there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves . Like it or not , for the moment , the Earth is where we make our stand .
The words of Walter Cronkite at the end of the documentary are spot on too . Thousands of scientist , astronomer , and normal multitude are scrutinizing the sky perpetually . The possibility of a government coverup of any potential link is ridiculous at this point . When the contact with an alien civilization really happens , we will all know .
