I am a believer that they probably exist more likely than not and visit Earth occasionally, who knows, we may even be descendants. They don’t all have to be green, with 2 heads, 6 legs and possess ray guns. I am sure Governments know they visit too. Many sightings are easily explained away, but when you get high profile ex military and current pilots describing sightings of craft and near in flight misses then there has to be something in it, surely?

They can't mate, they're not there mate..
Would love so much to be made an idiot of right now but I don't think that that's going to happen tonight.
'night all, hopefully I'll awake to hear some good news.
Are you saying that UFO's don't exist. Unidentified flying objects or in modern day lingo Unidentified Aerial Phenomena?

Wouldn't the most likely point of being spotted be thermal imagery by satellites as they enter the earth's atmosphere? None reported to date.

Absolutely not, they all have specialist anti-thermal imagery paint on the outside of their crafts, haven’t you seen Independence Day

Funny how they all seem to be around America's deep south. Perhaps they come looking for intelligent life and quickly give up.

I'm definitely a believer. I don't believe in ghosts or flat earth or any of those crazy theories.
I simply can't believe than in the whole universe we are the only 'things' who can space travel.
I think they are under the worlds oceans. Hardly any of them have been fully explored. I'm not off to put my tin foil hat on

I have a couple of thoughts on this. Firstly, the distances are vastso faster than light travel would have to have been invented, which is quite unlikely given what we know.
Secondly, I would be dubious of any eye witness testimony, whoever it comes from. In science it is considered so unreliable it is ignored.
Finally, how do we leap from unidentified, i.e. I don't know what it is, to it must be an alien starship?

Assuming of course that there is no planet within shorter range than you imagine which can sustain life.
They may also live much longer than us so travelling for longer isn't such an issue.
Perhaps they could use wormholes to shorten the journey.
Perhaps time moves much slower for them so the journey appears shorter than it would be for us.
'Given what we know' could be very limited in comparison to them if they are vastly superior.

So why don't they land and say hello? Why come all that way and then leave without a cuppa?

Maybe they don't say hello to us for the same reason we don't say hello to the ants that we walk past on the path outside our house.

I don't go to visit the ants though.

The inhabitants of the craft might not be visiting earth with us in mind at all. Maybe they need something else from the planet and couldn't care less about us.

Yes, perhaps they programmed their sat navs wrong and ended up in the wrong galaxy. The should have gone to spec savers.

Have you not seen Star Trek. It's the prime directive innit? You can't just go round chatting to any alien species you fancy, they have to a reached a certain level of advancement.
Given who has just left the White House and who's currently in number 10, I'd say were some way off yet.

I think it is now very hard to deny that some of these things are real, but still unexplained. There are as many well qualified witnesses as there are crackpots so it is even more difficult to dismiss their testimonies.

All possible, but some of them quite unlikely. We know the theory behind creating wormholes, for example, but the require vasts amount of energy. Energy we would detect if another race created them.
Time does move slower near the speed of light but not nearly enough to make a difference. At 95% the speed of light time dialates by only 30%. That means the nearest star is still almost 3 light years away.
You are right that an alien species wouldn't have to be much more intelligent to make a huge difference, compare a chimp with a human for example. Chimps have an estimated iq of 65-75 where an averrage human is 100. Those few points make a big difference. It is very possible that an alien craft passed the hubble telescope and they all pointed and went, look they have a telescope, how quaint.
All that said, most cosmologists estimate that there may be very few intelligent civilizations in the galaxy, some even think it is very unlikely there are any. Add that that to the vast distances and the chances of us being visited by an intelligent alien life is tiny.
As for eye witness testimony there are lots of examples of convincing stories that turned out to have a logical explanation. It is not accidental that cosmologists, bioth amatuer and proffessional do not report UFO sightings. Why? Because they generally know what they are looking at.
The state trooper that said he saw a light in the sky zigzagging, for example. Turned out he was looking at venus and he was on a winding road.
