However, if you ask me whether or not I believe in spacecraft carrying visitors from outer space, I would have to say no. I do not believe in them. 2. The continent of Antarctica was discovered in 1818. It was once supposed to have been covered by ice for hundreds of thousands of years. However, in 1949 scientists took samples from sediment deep beneath Antarctica, which revealed that great rivers had once flowed into Antarctica until about 6,000 years ago, Many more mysteries remain to be discovered. 3. Im always interested in the stories of UFOs and aliens. And I hope I will have the chance to meet one some day. If it really happens to me, I will ask questions such as Who or what are you?, Where are you from? and How long does it take to travel from your place to our planet?. I will try my best to municate with them, discovering what their life is like and why they have e to the earth. UFOs UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object.
