Fox News has a super-exciting article today: "Exclusive: NASA Scientist claims Evidence of Alien Life on Meteorite." OMG, aliens exist! Except this NASA scientist has been claiming to have evidence of alien life on meteorites for years.

Is there any better kind of government file than a government UFO file? (No, there is not.) The U.K. just dumped its largest-ever cache of UFO files, and there is some pretty great stuff in there. Such as these letters, wherein a former Ministry of Defense employee writes from Sri Lanka of a "partial aura" and "a ring like a doughnut," providing along with his or her letter two pictures of this unidentified object. And yet, his case handler is less than moved: "Defence of Sri Lankan airspace is clearly a matter for the Sri Lankan Government and you may wish to pursue your enquiries with them." The MoD can be so bitchy!

Here's a new trailer for the springtime alien disaster movie Battle: Los Angeles. You may remember that an earlier trailer got us all excited and, happily, this new, more plot-heavy reel doesn't diminish that feeling. This looks good, guys!

A small French farming village is facing an influx of UFO watchers and assorted New Age idiots who believe aliens are hiding underneath a nearby mountain, waiting for the 2012 Apocalypse. The mayor wants the army to be on call.

Apparently, Dan Aykroyd, writer of Ghostbusters, actually believes in ghosts, and he is even a consultant for the Mutual UFO Network. The audience is clearly unsure of whether or not to take him seriously, and they giggle throughout the interview.

Castle and Beckett become true believers while investigating the murder of an astrophysicist who seems to have died in space. Unfortunately, when they start digging a little too deep, it's not only their murder victim that gets an otherworldly visit.

This is Colleen Thomas, a home health administrator turned physicist who specializes in the science of creation. She is also the "mother" of a race of good aliens here on Earth to defend humans from lizard people. Yes, lizard people!

"Craziness in the sky," an intrepid tipster emails us. "There are some sort of flying hovering bright objects above the Queensboro bridge." Have the Manhattan UFOs returned from their sojourn to El Paso? Or is some kind of viral-marketing stunt?

Last Wednesday, New Yorkers were startled by some UFOs above Chelsea. The next day, reports stated that they was just balloons. But wait! This news report from El Paso, Texas reopens the mystery, because the same UFOs were seen there.

OK, humans, pack up, because this one's gotta be real. From the unexplainable movement of the lights that flashed/moved/altered the sky (when this was recorded in China recently), to the raw feel of the footage, it seems we've got company.

Why have six meteorites hit the house of 50-year-old Radivoke Lajic over the last six years? "I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials," he said. Obviously. Lajic says he doesn't know what he's done "to annoy them." [Daily Telegraph]

On Wednesday, an unidentified flying object was spotted near the Xiaoshan Airport in Hangzhou, China, causing 12 inbound flights to be diverted and temporarily closing the airport. An aviation official today said, "No conclusion has yet been drawn." [China Daily]

NASA astronomers tracked a strange, "few-meter-wide" object which passed Earth just outside the Moon's orbit on May 27th. Obviously aliens, right? Wrong: Its path and makeup suggests it was a chunk of an old rocket. (A human rocket.) [Discover]

Finally, a trailer for J.J. Abrams' mysterious new movie, Super 8! There is a train crash, possible aliens, and secret easter-egg shot of some kid's head! But: Will it make up for tonight's crappy episode of Lost?

As part of a new Discovery Channel series physicist Stephen Hawking says that he's convinced aliens are out there, but that we should avoid them because they will probably come to earth and kick our asses like in the movies.

The Way We Live Now: Trading one problem for another. We found a job, but lost a house. Found a place to rent, lost a place to buy. Found a car, lost a bus. Find a meteor, get alien disease.

Not to disturb your slumber, sheeple, but a massive spherical fireball lit up the skies across the Midwestern US last night. It emitted a sonic boom, and broke into pieces. This was a "meteor," according to government agents. Mmm. [CNN]

It is not even up for debate that the first Predator was awesome. The franchise took a serious nosedive With Predator 2 and Aliens Vs. Predator. Best thign to do? Reboot the franchise. Hey, it worked for Batman.

The Way We Live Now: As one big family. Extended families living together are back! By necessity, borne of poverty. Still, something we can embrace. Unlike sewage wage freezes and worthless garbage homes and crazy old Senate alien coots.
