E.B.E." stands for "Extraterrestrial Biological Entity"

The Roswell UFO incident involved the recovery of materials near Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947, which have since become the subject of intense speculation and research. There are widely divergent views on what actually happened, and passionate debate about what evidence can be believed. The United States military maintains that what was recovered was a top-secret research balloon that had crashed. However, many UFO proponents believe the wreckage was of a crashed alien craft and that the military covered up the craft's recovery. The incident has evolved into a widely-recognized and referenced pop culture phenomenon, and for some, Roswell is synonymous with UFO and likely ranks as the most famous alleged UFO incident.

Extraterrestrial life is life that exists and originates outside the planet Earth, the only place in the universe currently known to support life. Its existence is still hypothetical as there is currently little, if any, evidence to indicate that other planets can support life, and there is no evidence of extraterrestrial life that has been widely accepted by the scientific community. Some, however, point to moons of Jupiter or other celestial bodies that might conceivably have some forms of life (bacterial or otherwise). Moreover, the existence of NASA shuttle videos that show alleged ufos has led some scientists and physicists to consider these as evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Most scientists believe that if extraterrestrial life exists, its evolution occurred independently, in different places. An alternative hypothesis, held by a minority, is panspermia. This suggests that life could have been created elsewhere and spread across the universe, between habitable planets. These two hypotheses are not mutually exclusive.

The putative study and theorisation of extraterrestrial life is known as astrobiology or xenobiology. Speculative forms of extraterrestrial life range from sapient beings to life at the scale of bacteria. Since no examples of confirmed extraterrestrial life are available for examination, these studies presently remain within the realm of speculation.
