I never rule out it could be nothing at all and that we are alone in the universe. It remains a mystery.
We may not be alone, and statistically probably we are not alone, but the universe is so massively huge that statistically they have little chances discovering our planet, and even less chances to have the tech to make the trip.
So even if all the sightings, testimonials and stories could categorically be proven to be 100% false beyond any shadow of a doubt, it still doesn’t mean we are alone in the universe.
