It is a vast universe out there. So vast, that our tiny little brains can’t even fathom the sheer extent of it all. I’m not kidding. We really can’t!! On top of that, we find ourselves all alone in this haunting silence of a vastness.

We are yet to find a single cosmic neighbour, though that has not been for a lack of looking. For decades we have turned our gaze towards the skies and also listened intently for any would be presence but so far, there’s only silence.

However, a strange phenomenon has been going on for more than half a century and it’s that of the UFOs. A UFO is basically, any unidentified flying objects and it really could be anything but, popular culture has made that term synonymous with an alien aircraft.

There have been countless reports of these UFO sightings and many people swear that they have had contact with an alien race. Experts are almost unanimous in their claims that till date, no solid evidence has been found and I’m sure most of the reports are fake. But what if some of these were actually true? Could there be a bigger game at play? If true, what would that entail?

They Might Be Observing Us

Let’s say that these so called alien beings are indeed visiting Earth in their spacecrafts. What could their motive behind it be? I mean they are not making a grand entrance and letting us know about their existence right?

All we hear are stories where it is clear that they want to hide their presence. This makes it clear, in my opinion, that they are in an observation mode right now where they might be studying us or even the other species of the planet.

The first question that arises is why. I think the word ‘curiosity’ answers that pretty well. I mean if we went to a planet and found life on it, we would pretty much do the same, right? So, that’s understandable.

What I do not understand is that, it has been decades since we have been continuously hearing about their sightings. If they were indeed observing us and were highly intelligent, wouldn’t they have been done like, years ago?

They Might Be In Contact With Us

One possibility that is often put forward is that the alien beings are actually in contact with the different governments of the world and that the whole thing is being kept under wraps.

First of all, I personally think that it is too big of a secret to keep quiet for a long time. Information has a habit of leaking out because where humans are involved, there is bound to be a lapse in security no matter how tight you design it and things are bound to get out.

But let’s say, somehow, they manage to keep it air tight. The next question then would be, what kind of an arrangement do they have? Is the involvement of us humans limited to just the knowledge of their presence? Or could it be more.

I have read my fair share of conspiracy theories and mostly do not agree with them. If you’d read some yourself, you would know that many people claim that the US government and some others possess highly advanced tech (centuries ahead) that they received from these alien beings.

Would Disclosure Happen?

I have probably seen thousands of videos of these UFO sightings and a lot more photos of the same. Most of them I felt were people trying to have fun with CGI and most others were people making misjudgements. But some looked very real and would make you think.

Also, if you follow some of the credible people out there, you will in fact start questioning if what they say is indeed true. What if alien beings have been here all this time and the public just doesn’t know about it.

They claim that the governments fear it might cause panic and loss of order in the world and the whole thing could escalate. That might be one reason why they are not telling us. There is a great deal of speculation about the others.

Let’s say this was true. Would they ever consider disclosing it to the world? We have been so exposed to this idea by all the movies and tv shows that I don’t think it would cause any panic and most importantly, we would have a right to know. After all it’s one of the biggest questions that mankind has!!
