It just seems so much more likely to have a terrestrial explanation, it seems to me that selecting the highly unlikely ET explanation is indulging a fantasy more than it is making an unbiased appraisal of the evidence.
If, hypothetically, Earth were to be visited by extraterrestrials who did not care to make open contact with us, would we be able to tell? And if so, what kind of evidence should we expect to find of it?

Let's say we, as humans, somehow manage to survive and progress technologically for, say, a billion more years. Would we say that it is highly unlikely that we would ever in that time be able to figure out how to travel to another inhabited planet?
Here's a question that I've never seen addressed by anyone: If, hypothetically, Earth were to be visited by extraterrestrials who did not care to make open contact with us, would we be able to tell? And if so, what kind of evidence should we expect to find of it?

The majority of UFO's seen by Terrestrial observers are actually Government drones/crafts which are unmanned but flawed due to some imperfections in design.
Other UFO's of extraterrestrial origin are more of a rare occurence due to the quarantine of Earth. This quarantine is in place for the soul purpose of the Free Will of it's inhabitants; it's quite suprising but the vast majority do not wish any contact conciously or subconciously which is the reason for such a "quarantine".

This report is intended to inform the authorities of the Ministry of Aeronautics, especially The Minister himself, about the events occurred in the night of May 19, 1986, regarding information pertaining to Air Traffic Control and Air Defense Organization, as well as the intercepting pilots involved in this event.
Due to time limitation and specific knowledge limitation regarding the nature of the facts, this Command has decided, within its operational sphere, to limit itself to simply narrate the facts and avoid any kind of speculations involving the Ministry of Aeronautics.
The radar data is questionable.
The Brazilian Aerospace Defense System, concerning to RDA1, has so far relied on detection equipment based on radars whose main purpose is to control air traffic, not specifically designed for Air Defense.
Its technical limitations render air space vigilance deficient as far as targets detection is concerned, the initialization of which is made manually, that is, the controller is constantly required to personally manage radar contact and keep it steadily visible for a period that will allow deep evaluation. As a result, following the movements detected on the occasion was severely thwarted by the fact that it was not possible to maintain visualization, regardless of the controllers’ efforts, because the contacts obtained were not strong enough to allow an initialization work.

You speak as if these things you claim are fact. Care to offer up some evidence to substantiate such theories? Not saying you're wrong, quite the contrary actually, your beliefs sound very plausible to me. Just would like to learn how you came to such conclusions. Unlike some skeptics on here....who seem to revel in pointing out holes in peoples theories, yet never offering up any of their own. Nothing like raining on someones parade eh?
