We've probably discussed this before, but just in case. Have y'all watched many videos on the tic-tac? What do you think of this?

Would love to know what it is. But we really don't have enough info to conclude anything. UFO is the perfect conclusion for now; "Unidentified" is the important part.

Keep looking forward. That’s why windshields are larger than rear view mirrors.

Here's something mind blowing... if the Sun was scaled down to the size of a white blood cell, the Milky way would be the size of the continental United States. At that scale if you were traveling at the equivalent to the speed of light, you would travel a whole mile in just about 35 years. _____________ Another scale: If the earth were a 1" marble, in San Diego, the earth would be a grain of sand 6' away, with the moon invisible. Pluto would be 200' away. THE NEAREST STAR WOULD BE IN SAN FRANCISCO. How long does it take us to get to the moon? A few days from the grain of sand to the speck next to it? Then how long to San Fran then? OMG That's not all, in this scale the NEXT STAR- would be the distance to the moon. Getting visited by all kinds of extra terrestrials would be far fetched, even at the speed of light it'd take lifetimes to visit the nearest stars.

NASA says about 300 million habitable planets could exist in the Milky Way. Astronomers estimate that there may be 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe. That number may be far larger.
Are we alone? IMO, no possible way.

We're not smart enough to build a ship that can go faster than the speed of light, maybe they are?
