21 "Race" distinguishes various extraterrestrials of decidedly different appearances. More research into exo-biology, (the science of extraterrestrial life's physical structure and processes), will help us understand better how many races of intelligent species we are dealing. So would the declassifying of the Government's already considerable covert research on extraterrestrial biology, (such as is going on at NASA's Ames Research Center, Sunnyvale, CA, and at Los Alamos National Laboratories, NM). For convenience I shall use the term race to distinguish extraterrestrials of significantly different anatomical features. The most common Extraterrestrial race encountered has a number of variants. These variations in size and details of appearance may represent origins on different planets. This race is popularly, and rather imprecisely, called the "Grays". The "Grays" are stereotyped, by uninformed or careless writers, as: short, upright, two-legged beings, three-and-a-half feet tall, with grayish-white skin, large, hairless, fetal-shaped heads, with huge, all-black, sloping, almond-shaped eyes without pupils or eyelids, whose eyes wrap around partially towards the temple-area sides of the head, a narrow jaw tapering to almost a V, small nostril holes but no nose, a small, thin, lip-less, horizontal slit for a mouth, thin torsos with no ribs and no genitals evident, long, spindly, but surprisingly strong arms reaching to the knees, similarly long, very thin legs, and hands with three, long, non-tapering, joint-less fingers, which end in claws instead of fingernails, but no thumb. To be sure, there is such a race of beings; or at least a race, of which this is one variant. However, there are also: five-foot tall "Grays", seven-foot tall "Grays", "Grays" with mushroom-white skin, "Grays" with brown skin, "Grays" with black skin, "Grays" whose large eyes have a thin nictating membrane which can extend across the eye, "Grays" with midnight-blue eyes, "Grays" with wispy fine small amounts of hair on their heads, "Grays" with four fingers, and "Grays" with three or four fingers and another finger positioned where the human thumb would be, and "Grays" whose fingers end with suction-cup-like tips. There have also been extraterrestrials reported who have a large process of folds along the back of their heads, a series of deep creases or crevices along the top of the head, sloping down forward towards the front, and with a strongly-pronounced brow-ridge above the eyes. Are these twelve different races; or variants based on evolving in different climactic zones on one planet? Does this represent racial variation within inhabited planets in one star system? Or are these variations which occur within one cluster of star systems? Or does the "Gray" genotype tend to appear in many different star systems, on some planets, along with other races, on other planets, within those same star systems? The truth is, we do not know. Or at least that information has not been released to the public. Thus, we are still at the stage of gathering information on the various different types of intelligent lifeforms visiting our planet. Another source of variation even within what is apparently one race is clothing. Many experiencers report that their "Gray" visitors wore no clothes. Others have seen "Grays" wearing long robes and hoods over their heads. Others have seen crews where both versions of attire, as well as close-fitting jumpsuits, were in evidence. Yet Grays are not the only ones wearing robes. Another race of Extraterrestrials is the 4-to-5 1/2-foot tall Being, with a somewhat large head (by comparison with the human head) but not as proportionally large as the "Grays", and who has somewhat large (but smaller than the "Grays") dark oval eyes, spindly frame and limbs, and a hand with three long, cartilaginous, bone-less fingers, which end with neither claw nor suction-cup, but rather "ordinary" fingertip shape, except that their fingers do not taper. A more distinctive kind of extraterrestrial is the "Praying Mantis type" race. These Beings The Various Kinds of Extraterrestrials. by Richard Boylan, Ph.D.
