UFO phenomenon is the most exciting and far-reaching event in this century. Some events that seem to violate the laws of nature in UFO phenomenon are probably the prelude to the revolution of modern physics, because major discoveries in physics in history often start from observing the sky, and UFO phenomenon may also be related to alien intelligence.

Its function beyond the level of modern science and technology is undoubtedly a great challenge to human wisdom and today's science and technology. If UFO is really an alien's mount, aliens really contact with the earth people, which will have a comprehensive impact on the earth civilization; It has greatly promoted the universe, scientific system, way of thinking, philosophical thinking and even ethics. Therefore, the study of UFO is likely to lead to a new leap in human civilization.

But at present, UFO research has been hovering at a low level, not only because of the lack of information and data about UFOs, but also because there are some misunderstandings about UFOs. One of the most typical concepts is "UFO= UFO = alien", which may lead UFO research astray, and there are often striking similarities in history.

Newton founded the theory of "the first driving force" in order to explain the reason of movement, and did not hesitate to spend most of his later years on profound theology. Today, UFO research faces the same situation: simply push the magical phenomenon of UFO to aliens. The alien hypothesis, which is more elusive than God, will inevitably make UFO research mysterious, empty and even superficial, and it is impossible to become a real science and an elegant science as a strict science, which is extremely disproportionate to the far-reaching significance of UFO and its research. Therefore, it is necessary to make a profound discussion on UFO and its research from the perspective of philosophy, so as to establish a correct understanding of UFO and its research, and then find the correct research direction.

Do aliens exist? For thousands of years, human beings have believed in the highest principle of "man is the soul of all things" and are used to living alone in the vast universe, rejecting the existence of any other wisdom. This ancient way of thinking is naturally cynical and skeptical about the existence of aliens. However, since this century, many phenomena have shown that the existence of extraterrestrial intelligent life is possible.

1977 In September, the delegates attending the second seminar of CCIR (International Radiocommunication Advisory Committee) in Geneva put forward that "at present, the earth receives many radio waves from the universe" and "there are planets with intelligent life in the vast universe outside the earth". (Note 1)

Frank derek, an American astrophysicist, calculated about 65 million planets with possible life according to the empirical formula, and then made a detailed analysis of the number of planets at various stages of civilization development. It is pointed out that the two planets have developed to the nuclear age, which is close to the level of the earth. (Note 2)

Life is not necessarily based on carbohydrates. 1980, the university of Maryland held a scientific seminar to discuss whether there is a civilized society outside the earth. Some biochemists have pointed out that "at high temperature, silicon can be the basis of life" and "another rational person may exist in the form of energy". Marine scientists have also discovered a kind of life parasitic on sulfur, which provides new clues for the possibility of the existence of alien life. (Notes 3 and 4)

Strange flying objects do exist in the world today. Many behaviors of these flying objects are "unnatural". For example, flying objects with strange dishes are frequently displayed to human beings in the space of human life with extraordinary speed, acceleration, huge electromagnetic influence and strange luminous characteristics. As a magical function of a flying entity, the current technology of human beings is powerless and even incredible. Therefore, people infer that they are tools manipulated by aliens.

To sum up, the possibility of extraterrestrial life cannot be ruled out. But we can see from the three evidences mentioned above that they are still based on the inherent experience of the earth people. Obviously, they are vague and empty, in order to explore another possible wisdom. Only those frequent UFO phenomena are clear and valuable for research.

But the whole scientific community is not interested in what aliens say. The reason is not only related to the mystery of the alien hypothesis and the lack of scientific basis. In essence, there are deeper reasons.

Since ancient times, "man" has been the first theme of philosophy, and this century has formed a "earth-centered" value theory. This theory only considers the earth people and their goals, and takes the experience of the earth people as the standard to judge everything. This value theory has a wide historical, philosophical and religious background, and has almost become the highest criterion in western countries. Although Copernicus overthrew the "geocentric theory", he always held the belief that "the earth people are unique intelligent creatures in the universe" and could not imagine or allow the existence of other wisdom. This represents the view of a large number of outstanding scientists: the human spirit cannot be explained by science, it can only be unique to human beings, and this is the value of all mankind. When the earth civilization has not been invaded by aliens, the scientific system founded by Newton, Maxwell and Einstein is still magnificent.

The level of human science and technology is changing with each passing day. In this series of scenes, who will worry about the myth of "aliens"? However, Einstein said, "Pursuit is greater than possession. When mankind is content with an ancient home and proud of the times, the extraordinary power of UFO phenomenon is an impact on human civilization and an opportunity to make the human spiritual world more perfect. Therefore, human beings should not avoid the existence of aliens or ignore the UFO phenomenon. If aliens really exist, there will be a real revolution in all fields of human civilization and the progress of human history will be completely new.

Therefore, it is our historical mission to put UFO research and alien research on the right track.
