Default UFOs: finally we can accept them as myth and hoax?

Throughout my life UFOs and flying saucers, aliens etc were suspected and reported, with blurry pictures shoring up as evidence. But of course, as the times change and everyone carries a camcorder now and seemingly every single event in life is recorded these days, no good footage of UFOs. So I guess we can retire this type of thing, we are alone in the universe.

Our Skies Are More Watched Than Ever, So Why Are Reported UFO Sightings on the Decline?

Quote:
This is a curious trend, given that almost every other aspect of our world is better documented than ever before. More people are carrying cameras on them and more people have access to the internet and can therefore share their strange observations. Meteoric fireballs, for instance, are extensively documented these days, captured on dashboard, security, and phone cameras. So why not UFOS?

Flesh and blood can not live in a ufo and go that fast too ... Maybe they are smarter now that we are too ... Invisible is still there for those that believe.

its obvious, its either as Jim says due to their advances in stealth technology. Or it could be just the opposite. Dramatically reducing the number of visitations because of increased surveillence of the skies.

If radar can go right through a fiberglass sailboat what can it do to a ufo?

Just who did you think came up with the idea for drones? Is that drone hovering over your naked girlfriend in the pool an alien or the pervert from down the street?

Proven fact is that UFO/Alien movies sell more pop corn than Cowboys and Indians movies

Good point, the only film I went to see this year so far was the 40th Anniversary of ALIEN. First time I watched this gem on the big screen it was great.

I treat Aliens with the same agnostic indifference as gods and ghosts, i don't see the purpose of either 'beliving' or 'disbelieving in what cannot be proven either way.
I will say though, given the rate a which planets face extinction level catastrophes like meteorites and stuff. We are very lucky to still be here and alien race more advanced than us would be even luckier.

That's why.




Problem is, these things heat up very intensely, and they are used a lot. Thats where global warming is coming from.
