We haven't yet found aliens because no one can travel faster than light, and they all are light-years away from us, not because they do not exist. The probability we'll get in contact with a species of alien capable to travel in space is ridiculously low, I would say near zero. But I'm sure we'll find alien life on other planets, maybe even on Mars. There are no aliens on the earth, and no one ever visited us. What they are telling you are all lies. The consideration about the language as a barrier to the communication is also ridiculous. If a species is so advanced that can travel at the speed of light, if aliens can live thousand of year, or they even found the secret of eternal life, then their technology certainly enable them to understand us in a matter of days, just listening to our conversation, and observing our behaviours. Lee Cronin has a very naive opinion, I'm afraid. But the whole subject is indeed irrelevant, since no one would ever visit us, and no one did. You are all delusional.
