You sure?. Jesuit priests like Consolmagno—leading astronomer for Vatican who worked at NASA, taught at Harvard, MIT & splits his time between Vatican Observatory & laboratory (Specola Vaticana) HQ at summer residence of the Pope in Castel Gandolfo, Italy, & Mt.Graham in Arizona. https://twitter.com/LVolente/status/1274923052178890752

Over the last few years, he has focused so much of his time and effort in an attempt to reconcile science and religion in public forums specifically as it relates to the subject of extraterrestrial life & its potential impact on the future.

he and the Vatican are considering regarding the ramifications of astrobiology and specifically the discovery of advanced extraterrestrials… in which he admits how contemporary societies will soon “look to The Aliens to be the Saviours of humankind.”

Do Vatican scholars actually believe Jesus might have been the Star-Child of an alien race? Does Consolmagno and/or other Jesuits secretly hold that the “Virgin Birth” was in reality abduction scenario in which Mary was impregnated by ET, giving birth to the hybrid Jesus? Idk.

When the L’Osservatore Romano newspaper (which publishes nothing that the Vatican doesnt approve) asked Dr. Corbally, Vice Dir for Vatican Observatory Research Group on Mt. G until 2012,a few questions he replied: “How can we rule out that life may have developed elsewhere?..etc"

Such statements are but the latest in a string of recent comments by numerous Vatican astronomers confirming a growing belief (or inside knowledge?) that disclosure will be made in the near future of alien life, including intelligent life

From 70s through 90s, Monsignor Corrado Balducci—member of Vatican Curia (governing body at Rome) and friend of the Pope—who went perhaps furthest, appearing on Italian national tv to state ETs were not only possible but already interacting with Earth & Vatican was aware of it.

He even hinted how the Vatican itself has been closely following the phenomenon and quietly compiling material evidence from Vatican embassies (Nunciatures) around the world on the extraterrestrials and their mission

Whatever you make of his claims, Balducci was a member of a special group of consultants to the Vatican, a public spokesperson for Rome on the matter of extraterrestrial life as well as UFO and abduction phenomenon, and his assertions have never been contradicted by the Church.

Still, perhaps most intriguing was Catholic theologian Father Malachi Martin who, before his death in 1999, hinted at something like imminent extraterrestrial contact more than once.

While on Coast to Coast AM radio in 1997, Art Bell asked Martin why Vatican was heavily invested in study of deep space at Mt Graham Observatory. As a retired professor of Pontifical Biblical Institute, Martin was uniquely qualified to hold in secret info pertaining to VATT.

Martin’s answer ignited firestorm of interest among Christian and secular UFOlogists when he replied, “Because the mentality…amongst those who [are] at the…highest levels of Vatican administration and geopolitics, know…what’s going on in space, could be of great importance.."

Yet, if ET life is something Vatican officials have privately considered for some time, why speak of it so openly now, in what some perceive as a careful, doctrinal unveiling over the last few years?

Writing for Newsweek on Thursday, May 15, 2008, in the article “The Vatican and Little Green Men,” Sharon Begley noted that “[this] might be part of a push to demonstrate the Vatican’s embrace of science.

Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope (VATT), at the Mount Graham International Observatory (MGIO) in southeastern Arizona.

Interestingly, Vatican had plans to host a conference in Rome to mark the 150th anniversary of the Origin of Species, Charles Darwin’s seminal work on the theory of evolution. Conference organizers say it will look beyond entrenched ideological positions—including creationism.

The Vatican says it wants to reconsider the problem of evolution ‘with a broader perspective’ and says an ‘appropriate consideration is needed more than ever before.’”

The “appropriate consideration” Begley mentioned may have been something alluded to by Guy Consolmagno three years earlier in an interview with the Sunday Herald.

That article pointed out how Consolmagno’s job included reconciling “the wildest reaches of science fiction with the flint-eyed dogma of the Holy See” and that his latest mental meander was about “the Jesus Seed,” described as “a brain-warping theory which speculates that,

perhaps, every planet that harbours intelligent, self-aware life may also have had a Christ walk across its methane seas, just as Jesus did here on Earth in Galilee.

The salvation of the Betelguesians may have happened simultaneously with the salvation of the Earthlings.”

This sounds like a sanctified version of panspermia—the idea that life on Earth was “seeded” by something a long time ago such as an asteroid impact—but in this case, “the seed” was divinely appointed and reconciled to Christ.

The curious connection between the Vatican’s spokespersons and the question of extraterrestrials and salvation was further hinted in the May, 2008 L’Osservatore Romano interview with Father Funes, titled, “The Extraterrestrial is My Brother.”

Funes reflected how some Vatican theologians accept that ET species may exist that is morally superior to men— Father Guy Consolmagno took up this same line of thinking when he wrote in his book, Brother Astronomer: Adventures of a Vatican Scientist:

In a paper for the Interdisciplinary Encyclopedia of Religion and Science, Father Giuseppe Tanzella-Nitti—an Opus Dei theologian of the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome—explains just how we could actually be evangelized during contact with “spiritual aliens,” as

every believer in God would, he argues, greet an extraterrestrial civilization as an extraordinary experience and would be inclined to respect the alien and to recognize the common origin of our different species as originating from the same Creator.

but former Vatican Observatory vice director, Christopher Corbally, in his article “What if 

There Were Other Inhabited Worlds” may have summarized the most important aspect when he concluded that Jesus simply might not remain the only Word of salvation:

“I would try to explore the alien by letting ‘it’ be what it is, without rushing for a classification category, not even presuming two genders,” Corbally said, before dropping this bombshell:

While Christ is First and Last Word (the Alpha and the Omega) spoken to humanity, he is not necessarily the only word spoke to the universe… For, the Word spoken to us does not seem to exclude an equivalent “Word” spoken to aliens. They, too, could have had their “Logos-event”.

Whatever that event might have been, it does not have to be a repeated death-and-resurrection, if we allow God more imagination than some religious thinkers seem to have had. For God, as omnipotent, is not restricted to one form of language, the human.

That high-ranking spokespersons for the Vatican have in recent years increasingly offered such language acknowledging the likelihood of extraterrestrial intelligence and the dramatic role ET’s introduction to human civilization could play in regard to altering established creeds.

Infrared telescopes can detect objects too cool or far away and faint to be observed, such as distant planets, nebulae and brown dwarf stars. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths than visible light, which means it can pass through astro gas & dust without being scattered.

Objects and areas obscured from view, including center of Milky Way, can thus be observed. But what many have fascinated about is how infrared technology can also be used to spot and track Unidentified Flying Objects that cannot be seen with other telescopes or the naked eye.

In fact, some of the most astonishing UFOs ever caught on film have been recorded with infrared. Also consider that Pope Francis randomly planted seeds and said that to believe in extraterrestrial life is NOT anti-Catholic and therefore not against God.
