Extraterrestrial, as an adjective, refers to something that originates, occurs, or is located outside Earth or its atmosphere. As a noun, the term is used to refer to any life form which comes from outside Earth and its atmosphere.


The term has been widely used in scientific circles for a long time, but was brought to the forefront of public attention by the film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, one of the most popular films of all time.

Eisenhower Meets Extraterrestrials (7313 words)
Confirmation that the First Contact meeting involved extraterrestrials who were effectively spurned for taking what might be considered a principled stand on technology assistance and nuclear weapons comes from the son of a former Navy Commander who claimed that his father had been present at the First Contact event on February 20-21, 1954.
The testimonies suggest that the extraterrestrials in the First Contact event, a race of tall ‘Nordic’ extraterrestrials were spurned due to their reluctance to provide advanced technology in an agreement.
The subsequent shift in witness reports from friendly extraterrestrial ‘contacts’ to disturbing ‘abductions’, suggest that the Eisenhower administration had signed a treaty with extraterrestrials whose motivations and activities are an enigma as far as the general public interest is concerned.
