The Earth is the largest terrestrial planet in our Solar System and is until now the only place in the Universe where millions of speices, including humans are found to exist. Our planet is established as a result of a star explosion. This star is known as the Sun. In view of the fact that there are millions of stars in our galaxy, there is a strong possibility that a terrestrial planet may well be present. This planet could have living organisms and be similar to or different from the Earth. By a living organism I imply a variety of microorganisms, flora and fauna or even a possible intelligence form.

Critical is that until now not one occurrence is fully presented to us. Still some individuals like to believe, because the idea of someone powerful out there is sometimes liberating, fascinating and promising, as well petrifying and alarming.

According to Branton (1995), the interview with Sergeant Clifford Stone is been considered as sensational. Sensational, I believe, is also the narrative of Harry Potter. In addition, Branton (ibid.) refers to a two hour special national live television programme held in Washington on the subject of the aliens. Here two anonymous alien specialist talk about their work and experiences. Also they mention that the United States made several extraterrestrial discoveries and that an exchange programmes was made with the US and aliens. Moreover, Branton (ibid.) identifies
