Probably a misleading title.

I love your byline. Technically not misleading, since he determined logically, that what he saw was by definition, unidentified, although...

He went on to explain that statistically, life is certain to exist elsewhere in the Universe and could very well be in the Milky Way, but he does not believe for a second that what they saw on the way to the moon was alien.

I feel mislead! Anyways, it seems so strange to see him talk about a permanent human colony on mars, when such flights of fancy feel so far away. We did so much technology-wise, going from un-powered flight at the turn of the century, to the moon only a handful of decades later, but I think we've come up against the harsh intractable realities of space flight. Like our distant ancestors who pioneered building primitive boats to sail across open water, we can dabble our toes in the ocean and maybe reach a nearby island, but how I long for a cruise ship of space!
