The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. 
I think NASA's press secretary and myself watch the same movies 😄

 @872ab8e1 The problem is that it's basically not a scientific discussion to begin with.  It should have been from the start, but at some point it became what effectively amounts to a religion.  That means no matter how much evidence you show one way or the other, people are going to believe whatever they want to believe.
