Excerpt from Venus: One World Nearer Paradise?

Washington, Dec. 16 (upi) - The world is in for such a shock if stars are inhabit-cd that earthly civilization might even collapse.

This warning was contained in a research report handed to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (nasa) with the recommendation that earthlings should, prepare themselves mentally for the eventuality.

The report, prepared by the Brookings Institute, said While the discovery of intelligent life in other parts of the universe is not likely in the immediate future, it could nevertheless happen at any time.

Discovery of intelligent beings on other planets could lead to an all-out space effort by earth to contact them, or it could lead to sweeping changes or even the downfall of civilization, the report said.
