Mud Cracks on Mars: A Sign of Possible Ancient Alien Life?
If you asked a scientist what the basic building block of life is, the answer would be water. Therefore, when NASA’s Curiosity Rover recently found evidence suggesting that the Red Planet (Mars) was not always completely dry, thoughts of previous life forms come to mind. According to Nathan Stein, who is a member of NASA’s Curiosity science team, the most likely scenario for the cracks on Mars’ surface is mud.
Evidence of Ancient Lakes
In 2012, the Curiosity Rover landed close to an area officially named Aeolis Mons: An area that is now referred to as Mount Sharp (named after Professor Robert P. Sharp, 1911-2004). Since landing in 2012, the rover has continued moving around the planet. In 2014, the rover reached the base of Mount Sharp, at which point scientists realized that the evidence the rover gathered suggested that Martian lakes may very well have been full of life.

I feel that it is quite presumptuous of man to believe that he is the only ‘intelligent’ life in the universe. So, I guess that means that I do believe aliens exist. However, I am not alone in my beliefs: Professor John Dewey, General Douglas MacArthur and President Ronald Reagan all acknowledged their belief in extraterrestrials during speeches:

In 1955, while speaking to West Point cadets, General Douglas MacArthur stated: “The next war will be an interplanetary war. The nations of the earth must someday make a common front against attack by people from other planets.”
