[QUOTE="Cryptozoology News, post: 157762, member: 15739"] If you’ve ever thought about the existence of advanced extraterrestrial life, you probably have wondered what these beings might actually look like. In this article, we will discuss a variety of alien characteristics that are depicted in science fiction, by those who claim to have had face-to-face encounters, and also from the latest speculations by reputable scientists.
