    Odds are we're not even reachable through hypothetical FTL tech, so if some civilization did reach us, they are beyond anything we will ever fully comprehend in our lives, be it a worm drive like the Alcubierre or something we've not yet considered.

    The void is just too big, and Fermi was right. While it is hilarious to think of UFOs as the toys of some spoiled punk alien kids that don't know how to fly, dollars to donuts every UFO/USO is a case of "the phone call is coming from inside the house". The US isn't the only country with dark projects.

    The need to think they are from another world is the lovechild of the E.T. generation and latent geocentrism. We're fleas on a pale blue dot.

    • Same with Roadside Picnic / STALKER. They make contact on accident, but they don't really give a fuck about us.garbage
    • It's either DARPA or some private / state entity with massive amounts of resources. My downvotes are hilarious because it means we have some Mulders amongst us.garbage
    • If you follow the UFO lore, some of the "aliens" are our stellar neighbours, they get here in a few weeks instead of hundreds of years or millennia

    • If there was a planet in that binary star system, we can't find it. The whole idea has actually become an in-joke in science journalism.garbage

    • maybe we can look again with better telescopes? anyway that's the lore, nobody can verify anything - yet

    • But sometimes lack of evidence is actually lack of evidence. I'll be the Scully to your Mulder though. I do find it interesting.garbage
