So, let me plant my flag firmly in the ground before we start. I believe there are (Note I didn't say "Has to be.") other lifeforms Out There. I'm not an astronomer or knowledgeable on solar systems and galaxies, so "out there" will have to suffice as a descriptive term for this piece.
When I say life forms, I/we have no idea what that could be; people can give the label of microbes, but that's just a name we understand it might even be some cognisant entity with no physical body. 🤷♂️
While I really like documentaries, I don't usually watch ghost or UFO stuff. Why is it you never see a ghost sitting in Costa Coffee at eleven o'clock in the morning sipping a Latte? Or jogging through Danson Park on a Sunday afternoon? It's always in the middle of the night with poor lighting or, better still, some manky mist hanging about. Anyway, sorry to get sidetracked. The latest Netflix UFO offering caught my attention, and while watching it, I got to thinking.
For centuries, the human race has, in turn, been obsessed with aliens or, at the very least, reported sightings of weird shapes and blinking lights in the sky, which leads me to two, in my view, important questions which I'd love to ask these UFO Experts.
WE COME IN PEACE, IGNORE THE PROBE HOOMAN.
So my first question is with all these, umm? Reports since time began about cigar-shaped spacecraft surely means 'other lifeforms' know where we are here and how to get to us, so how come they've not built a bigger ship to come back with maybe more of their species or room to take a few samples back home?
I'm not talking about an invasion force or taking over the Earth; it's simply that if 'they' have been coming for two thousand-odd years, it's a bit odd they've not said hello.
Peek-A-Boo
My second question is: If we accept that UFOs are visiting us and landing and that these UFOs seem to come in all shapes and sizes, that could indicate they've come from several different planets or locations, in which case, how come we haven't found them!? One planet sending the equivalent of Christopher Columbus, I accept, might be difficult to find amongst the millions of planets, but several planets spewing them out like a hornet's nest is a different matter altogether.
As of 2023, there are 7,702 active satellites orbiting the Earth. Now, I'm not stupid. I know most of them (supposedly) are not scanning space, but a reasonable portion of them are, so how come they haven't spotted the green mist coming from Mars or Teasers on their way in?
