Hadien ba ki la pynlut da ki million dollar ha ka jingtrei ne ha ka project kaba neh 40 snem, ki scientist ki khlem lah ban iashem ia kita ki briew ne jingthaw (being) kiba kham halor ban ia ki briew ne ki jingthaw kiba kham pher na ngi ki briew kiba ki ong ki ‘Extra-terrestrial being.’ Hynrei watla katta ka jingwad jong ki ka dang bteng. U Robert Jastrow uba long u Director jong ka Mount Wilson Institute u ong haba u kren shaphang kata ka project, “We expect to find beings superior to us…. Not only technically, but perhaps spiritually and morally.” (Ngi khmih lynti ban shem ia ki jingthaw kiba kham halor ia ngi…ym tang ha ka rukom pyrkhat hynrei lehse ha kaba kynja mynsiem bad jingtip briew). Ka jingkhmih lynti jong U Robert Jastrow bad kiwei pat ki scientist ka long, ba kin iashem ia kita ki ban long kham halor ia u briew ki ban batai ia ngi ki briew ia ka jingthmu jong ka jingwan ka jong u briew sha kane ka pyrthei, bad ha ki kyntein jong U Jastrow u ong, “We hope that an alien civilization billions of years old will be able to tell us why we are here?” (Ngi kyrmen ba ka jingim jong kita ki jingthaw ba khyllah ba la long da ki lak ki snem kan lah ban iathuh ia ngi balei ba ngi don hangne?)
Ha ka kot kaba la ai kyrteng “Show Me God: What the Message from Space is Telling Us about God” U Fred Heeren u thoh kumne, “People want a higher companion, but not too high… people are looking for an intermediate …but someone who can still identify with us a fellow creature” (Ki briew ki kwah ia u paralok ba kham halor, u ban ym long pat uba khraw palat … ki briew ki wad ia u nong korbar u ban longpdeng… hynrei uta uba lah pat ban pyniasyriem ialade bad ngi kum ki para jingthaw). Ka jingeh jong kine ki briew ka long ba ki iit ha ka jaka ka bym dei, lada ki la iit ia U Blei khlem pep ia ki jingkylli jong ki yn lah ban jubab, yn lah ban jubab ia ka daw balei ba ki wan sha kane ka pyrthei? yn lah ban jubab, kaei ka jingthmu jong ka jingim ka jong u briew ha kane ka pyrthei? Ka jingeh kumba long ki jong U Robert Jastrow, kiba bun ki briew ki iit ia ka jubab halor ka jingthmu jong ka jingim ka jong ki ha ka jaka ka bymdei. U Jeremiah u kren shai (Jeremiah 32:18-19) ba dei U Blei U ba buh bad Uba khmih ia ki lynti ki jong ngi ha kane ka pyrthei.
Jingduwai: - “Ah U Blei, iarap ia nga ba ngan iit ia Me ha ka jingim ka jong nga, ba nga la ban shem ruh ia ka jingmut kaba shisha jong ka jingim.” - Amen
