      I’m sure there’s secret research doing all sorts of cool things using DNA and the like from all sorts of sources.

      However I don’t think there are any BIG secrets like UFO’s or dinosaurs. It would be much to hard to keep them secret. Imagine you had a dinosaur at school – how long could you keep it secret? You’ve got to buy food for it, and it takes up a lot of space. Hundreds of people would know straight away, and it just takes one guys delivery guy to see something, or one person to tell their brother and the secrets blown.

      The US government has been in a lot of trouble recently after Snowden dumped a load of info about their secret/illegal survielence programs – I’m not sure they’re that good at keeping secrets!

      No, it’d be great if their was but it’s highly unlikely.

      If someone had worked out how to do this you can be sure they’d want to let the entire world know about it! It’s probably the equivalent of getting picked for England but keeping it to yourself and wearing a disguise when you play.

      I can remember thinking this when I watched Independence Day many years ago!

      I think it is possible to be hiding extra-terrestrial life – who knows, maybe they already are!
