“Bottomline, I believe all kinds of intelligent life is out there......”

Very different question than if they are flying around here in physical crafts which accounts for UFO sightings. .

I’m not against the idea of alien life existing. And I’m not entirely against the idea of some really advanced alien civilization sending a probe or something of some sort that eventually gets here. But for this kind of thing to be aliens, it would mean a large operation involving a lot of craft that they can control, and that I do have a problem with, not just from a scientific standpoint, but also a “Why would they bother?” one. And I have an even greater problem with it happening and being revealed at the EXACT same moment where drone and deep fake technology has advanced to the point to make it possible to realistically fake it. That would be an extremely convenient coincidence.

So, hopefully, this doesn’t turn into an “alien” story, because that would likely mean very bad things for the future.

True, but some form of intelligent life that is thousands if not millions of years ahead of Earth I believe is easily capable of traveling in ways we have no concept of....

Note what that Israeli former Space Defense Minister said: They woould not want to be revealed until we actually understand what space is, and what spaceships are.
