That quip at the end made me think: what if there was an alien probe that had recorded most of Earth's history? We'd get to see our own history play out before us. Doubtful, but one can dream.

While I think its 1000% creepy to look into someones house but if you arnt on their property I dont see why using a telescope to look thru windows in people homes should be criminalized or controlled in anyway. Windows are basically public viewing spaces and it should be the persons job inside the home to make sure they arnt doing anything in a way where its visible to the outside world. That doesn't mean there shouldn't social consequences tho.

The skepticism is a joke when you compile the Mt Everest sized pile of evidence for past and current extraterrestrial contact with our planet. The capabilities of the UAPs alone, without even mentioning potential occupants piloting the craft or remotely controlling them, are technologically beyond the capabilities that any government or private company possesses by MANY orders of magnitude, and these craft certainly aren’t a phenomenon of the new millennia. They have been seen for over a century, well before man ever took first flight, and there are plenty of vague mentions of similar things going back millennia by civilizations from every corner of the globe. The inane resistance to understanding what is plain as day by the skeptics is just another symptom of human egotism getting in the way of doing proper observational and historical science…

@@JROD082384 Not every flying object that isn't man-made is a UFO. That's the entire basis of your shit argument. "We've been seeing things in the skies forever, so it must be aliens." So you only have anecdotal evidence and never cared to consider that there are *_other natural things that appear to do incredible things in the sky?_* Give us actual sauce or STFU with your tinfoil bullshit. The UFO and UAP phenomenon could turn out to just be advanced spy drones. Never mind an anti-climactic ending like ball lightning, which is *_still unexplained._* And before you try to insist on the technological capabilities... that's according to public knowledge. You really think the public would know a lot about top secret spy drone tech??? Occam's Razor favors these explanations, but I'm ready for you to try to misuse it and jump to "aliens" again. That's the game you people play. It's like religion. You can't prove it's aliens, so instead you shift the burden of proof and say "but you can't _disprove_ it's aliens, so it must be!" Occam's Razor doesn't mean "the most convenient answer." No one is saying it can't be aliens, but it's an assumption until there's strong evidence. Occam's Razor is antithetical to assumption.

I disagree. Yes, our observations are a narrow slice, but they represent all of the time UP UNTIL NOW that alien civilizations may have had to develop and expand. We've seen different spectrums of light from billions of light years away and are able to detect exo-planets 13,000 light years away. Theoretically there should be thousands if not hundreds of thousands of advanced civilizations out there, some millions of years old, as John mentioned.

So far, our neighborhood seems empty, but considering the very low occurrence of habitable worlds, and especially ones that were created biotically, it makes sense. Anything farther out would not know that we’re here, and even then only a few select planets would be able to detect our own planet transiting the sun!

There are three possibilities: some country or countries have come up with this technology and hidden it or they are extraterestrial/interdimentional or they could even be another species from this planet hidden in the oceans.

Very interesting! And somewhat unsettling! Regarding the UAPs I find it hard to believe that they are of alien origin. It's very hard to imagine any plausible reason why an alien civilisation advanced enough to fly probes in our atmosphere would bother doing so in the way these UAPs are doing. Why would they bother tantalising us like that, with these fleeting visits? They could easily sit secretly somewhere and monitor all our communications and within days they would know everything there was to know about humans and the Earth. The only possible reason that I can think of why they would want to partially reveal themselves to us in the manner of these UAPs is to slowly "break us in" to the idea of their existence. But that seems awfully considerate. Isn't it more likely that they would either keep themselves concealed or else reveal themselves in full?

I'm sorry to bother you with this, as I just got to your comment tonight, August 4th, late into the morning of the 5th, 2021. But in general I'd think any alien species that's watched us for any length of time would know we have some . . . strange Uncanny Valley issues. It's not just that many of us panic or freak out at anything somewhat, but not entirely "not us", it's that we use that hair-trigger-ness to half-justify a lot of our worst implicit bias issues (of your sexist, racist and chauvinist/culture bigot sort). I would think a "reveal in full" would be off the table entirely for that reason, that only a _tiny_ minority of us on Earth wouldn't have some sort of panic over genuinely alien exo-people. Whether that panic was natural and sincere or otherwise. So why would they be considerate? Well, they're able to get here. Odds are we _aren't_ able to do much of anything, outside of hurting their feelings, to them. So this may be about keeping us from killing ourselves trying to hurt them. Consider: even if they aren't gods on Earth, but merely "supermen" relative to us, still, which do you think they'd do to keep us from flailing (suicidally) against them? Would they dress in silly, "underwear-on-the-outside" outfits if it calmed our nerves? Or would they decline to insult our intellect and simply show up in the most intimidating appearance possible? I know, bleak and nerdy of me to say. But I hope this helped at least a little.

Yes but for how long? If they've (whoever "they" are) been here basically forever, and they've done basically nothing to us thus far, what's to assume that behavior is apt to change. If they're basically content to observe and ignore us what does it matter if they're here. ETA: If I'm one of them, I'm blissfully unaware of that fact, lol. I know I know, that's just what one of them WOULD say XD

This system has a single very interesting thing for alien civilizations to, at least, keep an eye on: the Earth's capability of creating an AI agent that could in a couple of hundred years be sent out to self-replicate around the galaxy (if we survive as a species to that point, of course). Aliens might not care about our resources, our life, our culture. But they will for sure care about the possibility of the creation of a synthetic organism that will represent some kind of danger for them in the future. And a self-replicating, probably self-improving, alien AI galactic swarm that might at some point surpass any other intelligence levels, is for sure something that any developed civilization out there would be wary of. I would even venture to state that the level of threat of a "singularity event" may not only be a critical point for life on earth, where it is greedily being sought without having the right protective mechanisms set in place, but for life on other planets as well. The situation might resemble a grumpy 6yo kid with ADHD, playing with a nuclear bomb detonator, in the middle of Tokyo. If our communication stream to space leads other civilizations to believe we are close to reach this level, they will have only a couple of options: 1) Positive Scenario: Help us to navigate the change without risking an out of control SAI agent, seeking benefit for everyone. 2) Negative Scenario: Actively disrupt the intents of reaching such technological state to develop said agent. 3) The Worst Scenario: Preventively destroy our capacity to develop said agent and/or the species as a whole.

Nothing can reproduce anything without errors. Eventually those errors pile up and over time those results will be of no resemblance to the original. Nothing stays the same for long in this universe except for change. We could make the borg today but guaranteed it will not stay the same over the course of time. The only thing that does that is nothing.

Imagine a quick trip to an alien doctor that leaves you more robust than a fictional immortal from the Highlander movies. It's enjoyable to imagine such things.

I cant fathom why he is being attacked the way he is. He has never suggested he discovered aliens or that this is proof of aliens, he only suggested a possibility and the entire scientific community jumped on his back. Other academics were getting on youtube literally talking about how :pissed off" they were and that Avi is making a joke out of their career.. They were acting exactly like a religious sect whos belief system is being attacked. I dont understand why like 95% of people on both sides of the alien debate are unable to separate how they believe the world works with what is actually happening. String theory with its zero evidence and zero ability to actually test its validity? Yeah that is fine. Aliens that might be at a star relatively close to us and launch a probe here? Pseudoscience.

30 years ago, I dated a guy who eventually told me he was regularly abducted by aliens. (That revelation pretty much ended the relationship, BTW.) he told me a lot about the "research" he and other "abductees" had collected. The main thing was that these aliens were not interstellar travelers, but rather interdimensional travelers. They came from the same physical space as us, just from dimensions we couldn’t see or interact with. It made zero sense and these people couldn’t back up anything they said, but it was at least a way of dealing with the vast distances of interstellar space. He also claimed that certain people had genetic markers inserted into their DNA many hundreds or thousands of generations ago, and that the descendants of those people were the ones being abducted and studied. In other words, you were born to be abducted, and your offspring would continue that trend. Of course, this guy also told me he had been diagnosed with lymphoma and that he was treating it with a paste made up of certain plants. The paste was rubbed on the skin over the tumors, and the tumors were "drawn out" through the skin. He was refusing to seek actual medical treatment. This was more horrifying to me than the whole alien-abduction thing. My guess is that he didn’t end up living very long. Or maybe the aliens cured him so they could keep probing him. I got far away from him as quickly as I could.

We will probably not find any artifacts or alien satellites lurking in our solar systems and definitely no Alien Ufos roaming around in our atmosphere or siting frozen in polar ice. Resources will be spend on this, which could definitely be spent in more fruitfull endeavours, but at least it will be settled and if we find something it would be worth it. The same applies to the more traditional SETI methods, which are more effective, but seamingly not as popular as this. Please acknowledge me and my rational opinion.
