If an advanced civilization developed the technology for interstellar travel, and came all this way to earth, I suspect one of 2 things will happen. Either their tech is so advanced that we won't even detect them, or they show up ready to communicate or destroy us.
I can't see them clumsily flying around, getting seen and whooshing off like some dumb teenagers playing ding-dong-ditch.
I could see the studying us like we study animals
I mean if you look at it like *observe and don't interact" then it makes a lot of sense why the craft keep going into the ocean. It's the best place on earth to hide and you can get anywhere on the planet that way.
I can see humanity as being an entertaining sitcom or something to an advanced spacefaring race. O ho ho ho they are so divided and primitive!
They travel thousands of light years just to pick up some ding dong and toss him back. I just picture a grey little alien dropping off a hillbilly after a solid butt probin' with a finger over his mouth uttering, "Shhhh! No one will believe you."
People travel to the other side of the planet to study ants.
Good point. I now believe in aliens.
Unless they don't give a fuck if we see them.
I would guess there are dumb alien teenagers as well.
Student driver
Safaris dont give a shift if the animals in the wild see them
Ukraine doesn't care if Russians see their drones. Why would aliens? If ufos are alien craft there's zero chance there's an alien in there.
I don't get why everyone was always assuming 'alien' vs "time travelers."
The interest in Earth, general similarity to our own tech but more advanced, coupled with non-intervention makes a lot more sense under those conditions than aliens.
I'm starting to think they're inter dimensional, not extra terrestrial. Google what would a human in 4d look like to us, and it sounds just like the descriptions of angels in the Bible. Our brain just glitching out and seeing them as a mess of eyeballs and appendages. They can pop in and out of our reality, seemingly out of nowhere.
It amuses me that they get caught on VHS flying around clumsily, but no one's ever seen anything out in space. How did they get into the atmosphere? Not one telescope on the planet can spot ships flying towards the planet
Actually there have been numerous videos of unknown flying objects in space. Where did you get the idea that there were none?
VHS is video.
Other than Oummammua (or however it's spelled) name one that even remotely resembles a ufo
Well I certainly don't know what their names are, but here is a video from NASA that shows a UFO in space.

Lmao
I can believe it when we can barely manage to spot an asteroid heading in our direction before it's basically whizzing past us
Do you mean the 34 thousand plus near earth objects that NASA monitors every day? Those "barely managed to spot"?
Uhh you realize they can’t catch EVERYTHING… yeah?
Since I know you’ll just claim otherwise
Never said they track everything.
There's no aliens buzzing around though.
You implied we could see everything with telescopes, we can’t even see everything with the tech nasa employs.
Maybe, maybe not, doesn’t change the fact that we’ve missed lots of stuff that’s hit or missed earth despite your asinine claim we don’t miss anything.
I never said we don't miss anything. How stupid are you? If all you want to do is nitpick bullshit go bother someone else.
No duh?
A reminder that mach 3.5 jet aircraft were flying around in the mid 60s before we had computer chips.
That was 60 years ago now. and 60 years before that, the airplane had only been around a year or so.
We would not believe the prototype shit that is flying around today.
once you reach 'unmanned' craft, the capabilities can get silly. the pilot being able to function in the G forces used to be a major limiting factor. remote-control meant limiting capabilities to what a human could comprehend. now we're well past that too.
funny how maga never seems to bring that little idea up lmao "hey everyone look over here at my left hand" while the right hand rapes and plunders our democracy
Breaking story?
The people accused of doing illegal things and hiding it from Congress investigated themselves and announced today they didnt do anything wrong.
So they'll be charging Grusch with perjury and lying to Congress then?
Would be funny if they tried, considering all the stuff that he knows and that he is legally represented by the former Director of National Intelligence.
it's only perjury if you know that it's false
So tell me more aboot, (adjusts American mustache) -I mean about those secret military tests that were definitely not UFOs...
