I had this idea a few days ago. Most of the government conspiracy theories seem rediculous. However, I can't say for certain that if there were a real alien landing/crash/encounter that the government would willingly share it with the public. It would be easy to prove this one way or the other however by making a fake UFO landing/crash and see how the government handles it. You would make it appear in some place easy to cover up, giving them the chance to hide it. Maybe even put some type of gps system in it to allow tracking.

An experiment like this would put an end to the government conspiracy theories either by proving them false or exposing them as true.

any comments? If I ever win the lottery Im going to do this...

Can I be in a box inside it?

Why would you need to experiment to find out if Governments cover up any/all evidence of UFO's and Aliens?
The Government in the U.S. of A. has been covering everything up since Roswell in 1947. The Government here in the U.K. aren't much better. They just go along with whatever the U.S. wishes.
Penkridge, February 1964, Llandrillo, January 1974 and Rendlesham Forest, December 1980 are just three examples of Government cover-ups in the U.K.
As for the Government agreeing to release their UFO files, I'm sorry but I don't hold much store with that! Nothing of any value or importance will come out till the U.S. Security Agencies say it is alright to do so. All the real important files etc will remain behind closed doors with the cover story that they have been destroyed for one reason or another.
UFO Hunters/Ufologists the world over are fighting a losing battle with the Authorities. The only way we can hope to learn the truth is for the Aliens/UFO's to show themselves in broad daylight to the public.

what are you talking about. Your saying this experiment is pointless because you already know the government covers stuff up? Thats bullsh*t. Theres no proof that any ufo sightings are true, and theres no proof that the government has hidden anything. As for Roswell (which I actually know a little about), it took about 30 years for ANYONE to come forward saying that it was a ufo crash. Add memory distortion to that picture and your left with a bunch of unreliable sources who are probably mistaken or lieing.

This experiment would prove to everyone that the government either isnt hiding anything, or that they are. Either way, if a large enough percentage of the population believes the government is hiding the truth and wants it revealed, the truth will be revealed. It is a democracy after all. Some politician who wants to be president will run on a campaign saying he will open up area 51 if he wins.

if the government calls in the media, and is open with what they found, it will hopefully shut up conspiracy nuts.

Also, assuming you could create something that appears to be alien under a decent amount of investigation, you could possibly find where the government is hiding all this "proof" of aliens.

Only if you agree to never come out :tease:


(just kidding)

I was thinking the same thing. You could act like you were in the crash and claim you are not of Earth. Wear a tight fitting outfit to make u look like an alien from an advanced race etc.

I can tell you do your homework..

There is plenty of evidence suggesting the government is hiding something. Whether it is aliens or not is anyones guess but they are hiding something.

It would be an awesome reality show, get Dreamworks or FOX to foot the bill, build a real size saucer, equip the inside with hidden cameras,
have a helicopter drop it somewhere in a field and see what happens.

Oh and make sure the crash is filmed live by some TV crew that just "happens to be" in the area.

I'll bet the military will have the area cordoned off within the hour. [popcorn]

the best way might be to have thousands upon thousands of people say they had alien encounters right after reporting things in the sky, that way the govt/military paranoia level might been analyzed, and not have to worry about physical object that they would roll out as a fake, a wave of faked reports to see their reaction instead, you know maybe that is whats been going on all these years -the public has been trying to fake them out for some reason possibly to overthrow the governments of the world , maybe to replace it with an alien govt? if thats what they think we could be in deep trouble.

Michael,

In theory, it's a nifty idea. In practice, i believe you will find this a little harder/tricky to execute.

I appreciate your gusto for the democratic process, but the U.S. is not a democracy, it is a Republic. Also, regardless of how many people want something, it makes no difference if the "powers that be/the man" do not want it. For example, remember all the people (millions of them) marching around saying "hey, Mr. Pres, we don't want you to attack Iraq" or to do this or that. What happened? The Pres said he didn't care what the people thought.... later he was able to black and white it by saying "you are either with us, or with the terrorists". Democratic, eh? In a democracy, there would be no electoral college and you would find that many more countless people will begin to vote, as their vote would then truly matter and/or make a difference.

Also, no way in Hell would a president in his right mind run on a ticket under the slogan "vote for me, will reveal ET". Don't get me wrong, I would vote for that guy/gal in a heartbeat, but he would not get the nomination and even before he would be able to announce it as his "official" slogan, someone would stop him. I believe Jimmy Carter attempted something of the sort in the early 1970's and was stopped.

"Conspiracy nuts"? I, though not believing much in conspiracies, would prefer they be called "Conspiracy believers" or some such term. "Nut" implies the believers are "nuts/nutters/crazy/loons" and, to me, that is just bad form. That's like calling Scientologists "whackjobs" and while they likely are "whackjobs", I prefer to just call them Scientologists.

To fake out the gov, you would likely need to have "the craft" show up on radar. Good luck with that. I doubt any reasonable amount of money spent on an elaborate hoax, such as you put forth, would fool any gov into believing ETs have landed/crashed. I reckon that in a matter of minutes the gov would know it was a ruse and those responsible will be playing "hide the pickle" in a federal penitentiary.

Michael, interesting topic nonetheless though. Definitely original, I'll give ya that.

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Are you seriously saying that the Government doesn't cover anything up?
How naive are you?
Take a visit to;www.paradigmresearchgroup.org/QuotesPage
and read the quotes by prominent individuals of high rank and accomplishments. Then tell me that there isn't proof that UFO's and Aliens don't exist.
As for your idea that some politician who wants to be president can run a campaign that he will open up Area 51 if he wins, that's ludicrous. Your Politicians don't run your Country, it's run by the Security Agencies and they won't allow any of their secrets to be made known.
President Kennedy wanted to tell the public all about UFO's and Aliens and he ended up being assassinated by "fellow Americans".
Also, America is not a Democracy it is a Republic. There is a difference, a huge difference.

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

your link is not working.

It would work an it wouls show once and for all the governemt is lying to us! They know the truth but won't let it out! If this idea is put in motion it will sure the goverment that We The People were correct the whole time!

i didn't read all replays, so sorry if it has been said already.

There is no way this would prove anything.

First off, lets say the find out about the "crash" and investigate it, they take all the debris and "evidence" with them and leave the site.
How will this prove anything? did you stand in the back and video it all? if so, there has been many videos of alien crafts.. alien obtobsies (i know the spelling is way off here, i am talking about when they cut dead aliens) there was even the video that is suposed to be the military investigating a ship crash.. thing is, you can't prove anything with a video.

but the main reason this won't work... they find the "crash site" they will leave because they will clearly se it is a fake
