How Do I Do This Beanie Baby Skydivers Project

What do you consider the most hard core proof yet, that aliens exist?

This:You might think this is a sketch of some futuristic technology, but this is the world of viruses here on earth. If you take a few minutes to consult Wikipedia or the Encyclopedia Britannica, you’ll find that scientists don’t consider viruses to be life forms. They work in ways quite different from plants and animals, and there’s no clear evolutionary path from life forms to viruses nor vice versa. There are a few theories, but the truth is that even experts are baffled. Viruses can replicate, but only by co-opting living cells to do the replication. Yet at other times they act like non-living things; some can form crystals for instance. They can cause all sorts of diseases and are extremely resistant to our efforts to get rid of them with chemicals, vaccines and medications.Given that there is no universally accepted theory of their origin, and given their mathematical structures, they might well have evolved on another planet such as mars and been transported by a meteor impact. They could alternatively be engineered weapons that escaped some biological war millions of years ago. While that might sound far fetched, write down what we know and don’t know about them and make some stabs at the probabilities of other possible explanations. In many ways the engineered extra terrestrial solution is the easiest to believe.
