As noted in Part I, there are distinctive physical characteristics remarked upon time and time again by close encounter experiencers. These characteristics - when examined piecemeal - are suggestive in themselves, but when taken as a whole, a coherent and biologically plausible description of a genuine species begins to emerge. There appears to be a species-specific common denominator (the reader will easily see this) running throughout these characteristics, which common sense tells us would be highly unlikely if close encounters were no more than mere subjective experiences, archtypes, hallucinations, media-induced fantasy, et al.
A) The Gray Alien was tagged as such due to its unusual coloring ... grey, white-ish grey, white, pale, greenish-greyish white and so on. While exceptions on our own planet exists, when taken with other physical and behavioral characteristics of the Grays, this indicates a species long denied any significant amount of natural sunlight. Nor (as has been weakly suggested) does there appear to be any sort of chlorophyll production at work as found in plant life. The 'dead' skin tone of the Gray Aliens could, of course, be a type of uniform or other non-organic covering, however ... when examined alongside of the other characteristics commonly reported, one is propelled towards an inescapable conclusion:
1. The Gray Alien originates or has evolved from a place/planet devoid of significant amounts of natural sunlight:
This point of origin could be an artificial one, such as a deep-space vehicle (as we think of such things).
This point of origin could be a different planet than Earth where, for various reasons, reduced amounts of sunlight penetrate.
This point of origin may be a different planet than Earth - with similar sunlight and location as compared to our own proximity to our sun - and the Gray Aliens are simply not a 'surface species'.
This point of origin may be Earth itself, and the Gray Aliens are not a 'surface species'.
B) The iconic immense, dark eyes. If the eyes are a natural feature of the greys, they appear to be all pupil with an assumed cornea or equivalent thereof, at least superficially. The sclera, or 'white part' is not visible. The cornea, as we know it, is a protective covering which also refracts light and aids in focusing vision. The pupil controls the amount of light that enters the eye and appears black because the majority of the light entering the eye is absorbed by tissues inside the eye. The pupil generally appears larger than it really is due to magnification by the cornea. Close encounter experiencers have sometimes remarked that the Gray Alien eye appears to have a covering (biological or artificial), and what they may likely be noticing is the cornea itself.
Generally speaking, the eyes of the Gray Aliens indicate a nocturnal species, or a species not typically exposed to a significant amount of light - solar or otherwise. See A.
Areas of conjecture would include amphibian or reptilian biology, though in the effort of sequential examination and to avoid side-topics, this will be shelved in the meantime to be scrutinized in future posts.
