With our technology, if we had sent our Voyager spacecraft on an intercept course to the next nearest star to our sun, it would take about 100K years to arrive.
Other civilizations have technology capable of overcoming that hurdle, not to mention radiation shielding and the fuel needed to haul all that around, and they just crash into the ground on some planet or into a windmill in Aurora Texas???
Such aliens are obviously much more advanced than we are. Therefore they’ve had affirmative action quotas in their engineering departments much longer than we have.
We can have probes there in about 20 years.
At 40 feet in diameter that would put it at about six feet in height.
That’s right! Our super sophisticated aircraft have never crashed! </ sarcasm>

Gonna need a bigger gas tank!!
Well either the tech isn’t as good as we would think, or the stories were made up in order to sell copy to the gullible, or something is bringing these craft down when they come into our system. That something or someone might be warning other somethings to stay out of our system. Demonic activity?...quite probable!
