Pentagon received hundreds of new UAP reports, but says no evidence of extraterrestrial activity
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
The report was published a day after the second major hearing on UAPs was held in Congress, where leaders called for greater transparency from the Pentagon on UAP knowledge, as well as on whether tax dollars are being spent on UAP retrieval, research or other programs.
Four witnesses testified at the House Oversight Committee joint subcommittee hearing titled, "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth."
Luis Elizondo, a former Defense Department official and author, testified that the government has conducted secret UAP crash retrieval programs with the purpose of identifying and reverse engineering alien craft.
"Let me be clear, UAP are real. Advanced technologies not made by our government or any other government are monitoring sensitive military installations around the globe," Elizondo said. "Furthermore, the U.S. is in possession of UAP technologies, as are some of our adversaries. I believe we are in the midst of a multi-decade secretive arms race, one funded by misallocated taxpayer dollars and hidden from our elected representatives and oversight bodies."
"Although much of my government work on the UAP subject still remains classified, excessive secrecy has led to grave misdeeds against loyal civil servants, military personnel and the public, all to hide the fact that we are not alone in the cosmos," he added.
Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., asked all four witnesses: "Do you believe, just for the record, that the federal government, any part of the federal government, is knowingly concealing evidence about UAPs from the public?" All four answered in the affirmative.
When Garcia asked the witnesses what they believe UAPs could be, Tim Gallaudet, a retired rear admiral of the U.S. Navy and chief executive officer of Ocean STL Consulting LLC, said: "Strong evidence that they are nonhuman, higher intelligence."
The report and the hearing add to what has been an influx of interest in attention on UAPs in recent years that has coincided with increased government transparency around the topic thanks in part to active-duty military members coming forward to discuss their experiences.
That in turn has sparked government hearings in which various former officials have made a wide variety of allegations about the origin of UAPs and about a purported government effort to keep information about them from the public.
Despite that testimony, no hard evidence has emerged concerning UAPs, extraterrestrials or a government cover-up.
Jon T. Kosloski, director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office.Dept. of Defense
The Pentagon report noted a consistent pattern in reports describing the UAPs: unidentified lights and round/spherical/orb-shaped objects made up the bulk of cases in reports that had distinct visual characteristics.
Of the UAP reports, 81 originated from U.S. military operating areas. Three reports from U.S. military aircrews described "pilots being trailed or shadowed by UAP."
Of the new reports, 392 were from the Federal Aviation Administration and make up all of the FAA's UAP reports since 2021.
The AARO noted that it was able to resolve one report made by a commercial pilot who reported seeing white flashing lights in the night sky that ended up being a Starlink satellite launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, that same night.
If the AARO does find cases that indicate breakthrough foreign adversarial aerospace capability, it'll immediately report it to Congress.
"AARO is investigating if other unresolved cases may be attributed to the expansion of the Starlink and other mega-constellations in low earth orbit," the report said.

Oh, come on, there's no such thing as aliens. These guys told me so one night and I believe them. With what happened on November 5th, I can believe anything is possible.
Are those Paul Helyer's Tall Greys?

The likelihood that humans are alone in the universe is almost literally zero.
I agree. Astronomers have already discovered that there are planets in the universe with similar suns and characteristics like ours on which there is a likelihood that life in some form has developed. However they are SO many light years away that we are unlikely to ever know, but should they be so much more advanced than we are, to have become capable of space travel or transmission in some way then who knows? Maybe Carl Sagan's "Contact" can actually happen. I think we can already be sure that "Mars Attacks" won't happen, but down the road "The Martian" is looking possible.
it's mathematically impossible.
The likelihood that anything can, or would want to, travel to the ass end of a universe at the ass end of the milky way is equally small.
it's high time to engage in a mass marketing campaign, that will escape into the universe, directed to promote the universally healthy nutritional benefits of the ultra religious ...
It's also extremely arrogant to think that the vast universe has only one populated planet. Sounds like the shit they teach you in religious classes
exactly. can you imagine the panic involved if some life form, that wasn't in the image of their creator, appeared or if all the military grunts realized they would most likely be a pile of death ray ash before they could get off a shot. the documented reports of UFO's being sighted around ground based nuke facilities and firsthand witness reports of nuke powered military equipment being shadowed since the 60's continues to grow in volume.
Not really, especially when the only basis for believing there must be life on other planets, let alone intelligent life, is the assumption that if it happened here, it must have happened elsewhere. Not a sound scientific basis for a conclusion. Science doesn't even know how, or even why life exists on this planet. About all we know is the statistical improbability of it happening is astronomical.
No the assumption is that life will happen wherever conditions are favorable to life. With the billions of planets available it's statistically probable that many thousands of worlds have life on them.
Again not true. If there are biogenic elements, a source of energy, liquid water, and a suitable, reasonably stable environment life will form and evolve. It's been done both in nature and under experimentation time and time again. That doesn't mean that alien life must have evolved to develop space flight though.
meh, I told you guys that this alien stuff would cause thumpers to lose their theological shit ...
I'm sorry I missed that. What theological shit is that?
We are all just star dust
Which is different from what I said in what way?
Again, you are simply restating what I said. Because it happened here it is probable elsewhere. The problem is that life by chance on this planet is astronomically improbable. You won't believe me but all you have to do is paste the following into your search bar and find out for yourself.
If the odds, scientifically, are so astronomically high just for this planet, then upon what basis can one objectively claim statistical probability for life elsewhere?
Aside from the fact that you are attempting to use a sample pool of one to create a statistical model, you have no evidence that life will result from those things by themselves.
Where has life been created by experimentation?
put here and there by a devise like that of the Lily Munster vacuum , and that only blows, if it doesn't suck
looks like we're about to get in an evolution vs creationism discussion (not you and me)
Those discussions bore me. I can't deal with the self-righteous
genesis, after that, the incest and pedophilia starts ...
oops, I meant xtian family values ...
Do you know what "poisoning the well" means in debates? It means to discredit what is said by an opponent or their sources simply because of how they view the opponent. An example would be " Well, you can't believe that because it came from CNN ." A variation of that would be, " Well, you can't believe what they say because their motive is actually not what they say it is ".
Not one thing I've said had God as a basis of evidence or involved Him in any way. All of it has been based on science and math. Everything I've said has been said to back up my response to what you said in 1.4.5 .
It isn't nearly as arrogant as you seem to believe, if one understands the science and the math. My involving God or my religious beliefs are not necessary to make that point.
I wasn't even talking to you
The fact that it happened at all proves that it is possible.
Given the fact that the elements and physics at play on Earth exist in the balance of our unfathomably vast universe, life could emerge elsewhere.
No matter how unlikely life is to emerge, the sheer size of the universe and number of laboratories available suggest that it is quite unlikely that life exists solely in our little speck.
In our universe which contains hundreds of billions of galaxies, each with at least tens of billions of solar systems, it is reasonable to expect that a simple single-celled life form has emerged.
Whether you realize it or not you are talking about the Drake Equation penned in 1960 by Frank Drake,
It talks about how scarce or plentiful planets with life could be. I'm not talking about that at all. I'm saying wherever those planets are the odds of life are near 100 percent.
The first that I know of was the Miller-Urey experiment in 1952.
No, I'm not. The closest variable in the equation that relates to what I'm talking about is fl, but since that relates to the number of planets suitable for life that actually develop life, not even that really relates. What I am addressing is the odds of life on this planet actually developing. The idea you guys go with is simply "if it happened here it can happen elsewhere and likely has" but that doesn't address the odds of life happening on this planet in the first place. It's simply taken as a given.
And how can you back that up? That is, how can you demonstrate that it would be even 0.01 percent, let alone 100, given than you cannot show how life here on earth started or that it was even statistically probable?
That experiment did not result in life and was later considered to be a flawed experiment in that it intentionally left out elements and compounds that would have been present but would have frustrated their efforts.
... yeah, but, but, but they're not xtians ... /s
... you can't either.
Yes it does. We do not actually know how likely it is for life to emerge. We believe that it is very unlikely but that is it. Until we understand abiogenesis we cannot realistically quantify its likelihood.
So go with ‘extremely unlikely but demonstrably possible’ and then consider the number of laboratories in the universe. We need just one of those laboratories to emerge the most primitive life form (even if it is unlike anything we know).
Note the laboratories are all the environments on each of the planetary bodies in each of the solar systems in each of the galaxies.
Also, that isn't the Drake equation. This is.
N =R∗×fp×ne×fl×fi×fc×L
The one you provided is actually applicable to what I'm talking about and deals with the odds of life spontaneously generating on a planet.
Which has to be 100 percent, correct? Since it's happening all over the globe all the time. From fossil record to th
Again that's a misrepresentation of what I said.

It can't happen too soon as far as I'm concerned
No. You are conflating what has obviously happened (life on this planet) with the odds, or likelihood, of it happening. If you have a box with 1074 red marbles and one blue one in a box, the odds are so close to zero of drawing the blue one that you couldn't get a Planck length between them. That is, just because the blue marble was drawn it was therefore guaranteed that you would draw it is unsupportable.
And the odds are greater than the number I used. That was just the lowest number I could find concerning the odds of building one of the simplest proteins imaginable by chance. Fred Hoyle puts the number of life generating by chance at 1 in1040,000. To put the number I used into perspective it is estimated that there are around 1078 to 1082 atoms in the observable universe. That makes the probable number of likely candidate planets seem almost non-existent at those kinds of odds.
You are arguing about the odds of something that could happen. I am arguing the odds of something that did happen, which since it did, in fact happen, are 100 percent.
just call me the xtian conductor ...
And his estimates have been substantially criticized:
Hoyle's estimate holds evolution as a random process rather than one of cumulative selection over large periods of time, it does not include the fact that complex proteins could have evolved from self-replicating molecules and assumes that complex molecules must be assembled all at once rather than incrementally over time.
Right. So, I'll just let you get on with that, then. Thans for the conversation.
It isn't a difficult concept. It is roughly estimated that 770 million species of complex life forms that have existed on earth. This doesn't take into account the simple forms of life like bacteria that would put that figure somewhere in the billions. And you want to tell me that the possibility of life is so infinitesimal as to be nigh impossible?
I follow the argument that was best quoted in Jurassic Park, "Life finds a way." We know all the building blocks for life are out there nearly everywhere and the estimate of planets we have found that have the potential to sustain life is something like 300 million.
Someday humans may even find a way to reach those worlds.
I always find it amusing that religious types can so easily accept biblical fantasy, yet balk at scientific fact.
Apparently, it is. You continue to conflate what happens after life has begun with the odds of it having begun in the first place. Your position is that there is a 100% chance that life exists because life exists. As far as I can understand such reasoning, you appear to extend that to abiogenesis. That is, because life began to exist there was a 100% chance that it would in fact do so. That is like saying that because the blue marble was drawn in the example I gave earlier, there was a 100% chance that it would be drawn. If that represents your position, even approximately, then there's probably nothing I can say further that would change your mind.
He pointed out that we know that life began to exist on Earth so, given this, the probability of life beginning on Earth is 1. (I recommend considering Bayesian reasoning.)
There is no point arguing this.
The more interesting question is rooted in this:
Personally, I describe it differently. The elements and physics we experience is the same (as best we can tell) throughout our universe. Since we know life emerged here we know with 100% certainty that it is possible. The fact that it is possible with the physics of our universe is of profound (Bayesian) importance.
So, given that there are 100s of billions of galaxies with 100s of billions of solar systems per galaxy with multiple planets and moons per solar system with an incalculable number of environments (e.g. deserts, water bodies, mountains, caves, frozen surfaces, volcanoes, ...) per planet or moon, there are an unfathomably large set of laboratories (each environment) in which life might also emerge outside of Earth.
And on top of that, the life that emerges need only be the simplest form of life (in our case, single-cell organism) and it need not be life as we know it. That is, it need not be based on C, O2, H2O, etc.
I do not.
My position is 'chance' left town when 'life' rolled in.
You don't seem to even understand what my position is yet.
By clinging to 'chance' you are stuck at primordial history. We are millenia past 'chance' and into certainty. We know with 100 percent certainty that life exists in the universe because we experience it every day. We also know that the building blocks of life AND planets are common wherever we look to find them.
I would change possible to probable, but otherwise we agree.
we've already done enough in the last century to let them know we're here ...
Was it Voyager that had the record with recordings from people around the world?
I don't know, but it's on it's way to an advanced civilization now, one with a record player ...
Yes, so you've said in various ways many times. I'm glad your view brings you joy, or so it seems to me. Again, thanks for the conversation (not sarcasm).
free range thumpers, it's what's for dinner to all intergalactic carnivores ...

"Despite that hearing, no hard evidence has emerged concerning UAP's, extraterrestrial or a government cover-up."
I work for the government. You can trust me.😄
Fighter pilots have failed to chase down many "foo fighters".
Astronauts have seen them in outer space.
The area 51 stories and photos have often been confirmed.
I saw something that couldn't have been anything else soooooo.
I saw some strange stuff when I was in Antarctica and also when I was on a WESTPAC in the Indian Ocean. Saw some strange lights in the water off Diego Garcia. That light was pacing the ship. Told my leading Chief about it and was told to forget about it and that I didn't see anything.
Did you do Operation Sea Angel? I was in the Indian Ocean for that one.
Nope. Mine was in 1981 on the USS Okinawa (LPH-3). Sailed from Subic Bay to Diego Garcia then transited the Maloccan Straits through the IO to Perth, Australia. 30 days straight steaming time. Spent 2 weeks in Perth then sailed underneath Australia to Sydney for anorher week. Some of the worst seas I ever experienced. Seas were so bad at one point ships in the amphib group were taking 30 degree rolls. Had to close the hangar deck doors because we were getting swells up into the hangar deck. Fun cruise.
Arvo Ed..I could have waved as you sailed past..
Yes the Southern Ocean more so the the Great Australian Bight and Bass Strait are some of the roughest seas in the world..throw in the roaring 40s and you beauty...
We had some US oil rigs here years ago and the work boats were nearly vertical going up over the waves..
Stuff that..
Yep, the Antarctic currents combined with those hellacious Katabatic winds in the vicinity of the roaring 40's are just so much fun to experience first hand!
Man the life boats..
Not my photo.. no way would I be on that ship..
you'd be tossing the dog's breakfast over the side ...
Fortunately I have never been prone to sea or motion sickness. In my early 20's I used to fly around in the back seat of jet fighters while doing air combat maneuvering exercises. Those Marine Corps pilots would try everything they could think of to make the "Doc" in the back seat sick, but I just smiled and asked for more!
I survived a couple of hurricanes at sea. We can mostly steer around those, but did some SAR for them. The worst, I can remember was at George's Banks in the N. Atlantic.. border waters for fisheries. In the winter we'd have 12' waves on 20' seas where it all froze on contact with the ship for days. Wedging yourself in your rack so you don't roll out in the middle of the night was always fun.
I remember once, our shipboard pharmacy almost ran out of scopalimine which is the standard prescription motion sickness drug during a typhoon off the island of Luzon in the Philippines. During a break in the weather we had to make a emergency helo run to the Naval Hospital at Subuc Bay to resupply.
I believe you. I've seen strange things in the sky
Morning...would be a great wave with the surf mat..but...not sure which country I would end up in..
Even jaws couldn't catch me on that wave...
Morning Ed...not keen on flying or sailing..I even come from a seafaring family..but way back when one of the rellies fell off the gang plank into a harbour and drowned.. apparently he was a Captain..
Me, I am quite partial to terra firma...
I spent enough time at sea myself. I am much happier on dry land in the deserts of SE Arizona.
my late uncle was in the atlantic merchant marine during WWII. he never set foot on a boat again after that.
you're surf and turf on or off that sandbar ...
Many years ago I was camping with two friends up in the mountains on Catalina Island. Late at night a very large aircraft suddenly appeared low overhead moving very slowly and not making a sound. There were a lot of flashing lights of different colors underneath, unlike anything you ever see on an airplane. We were totally shocked and convinced it was a UFO. One of the guys was former military.
I assume nobody had a camera. So what did you do about it? Did you report it?
Nobody had a camera and we didn't do anything about it except be shocked and amazed.
in the mid 70's I drove up to the top of a ridge in an open field on the outskirts of town to smoke a joint with my girlfriend while gazing at the city skyline below. when we got up there a sound like a helicopter overhead was so loud we couldn't hear each other talk. I got out to look for it above us and the next thing I knew I was back in the cab of the truck and we were both looking at each other about a lost half hour later, and I couldn't find the joint. some fucking alien had obviously taken it from me. luckily I didn't get probed, but my girlfriend did after we drove back to my apartment.
That sounds like an interesting experience.
a bit more interesting than having my granny, who had a very high USAF security clearance and only then admitted her knowledge of project blue book after the gov't did, freaked out and wouldn't let me and my cousin set up a UFO attracting strobe light device we had brought along with us while on vacation in the middle of nowhere arizona desert the year before ...
damn alien bogarted the joint
She knew something and that something wasn't good.
I don't want the aliens coming here. I don't think their intentions are good
as long as they dont say take me to your leader and point at trump. If that happens we'll know their intentions are not good
if their intentions were bad, we'd all be at the earthling feedlot waiting to be processed or slaves on gama 5 ...
my best friend's brother went on a pack trip to fish on the grand mesa in colorado, a UFO hotspot, because it's out in the middle of bfe. he had a UFO encounter that ran off his horses for a couple days and after 40+ years I still don't know the whole story, but it fucked him up mentally for a few years. as an artist, his self rehabilitation was to draw pictures of it in a blank page journal. his brother let me look at it once and the beings that he had drawn looked very similar to those depicted on this article. I promised my best friend that I would never tell his brother that I looked at the pictures, or even ask him about the event.
it was the mid 70's so that joint was columbian too, dammit!
Also many years ago, a friend and I witnessed something very like what you described South of San Antonio. What we saw was also an impossibly large triangular shaped ship with rounded corners and lots of bright multicolored lights. There was some slow silent movement observed, but it appeared and disappeared in a flash. So, it was maybe just an illusion of movement. What we saw was at least designed to look like a gigantic Hollywood styly UFO. The best explanation we ever came up with was that what we witnessed was an experimental military grade hologram similar to those used in some big Disneyland attractions today. The purpose was theoretically to be used for "Shock And Awe" on the battlefield. There have been sporadic reports of this type military technology being tested...
the same shit happened over phoenix years ago, with people taking videos of the craft. I can't remember the lame excuse the gov't had for it then ...
Weather balloon is the standard response here...
Which is a bit surprising considering we are upside down you would think it would stay on the ground..
It was military flares. I remember it
I have enough problems maintaining my balance ...
That's like what we saw, too.
The aircraft we observed was slow and silent, but it did not appear and disappear in a flash. It slowly moved across the sky above us, very low and filling the sky. The three of us were absolutely dumbfounded. This occurred sometime in the later 1980s.
Thinking about it further, I don't recall seeing it arrive or leave in the distance, it was suddenly just there moving slowly over us and then it disappeared. Of course, we were in a mountainous area which might explain that.
plenty of reports by military pilots that claim the alien craft can go from 0 to 15K mph in less than a second ...
Yep. I was living in Arizona at the time and remember it quite well. Government tried to blame it on F-16's out of Luke AFB ejecting flares. Funny thing about flares being ejected from aircraft is they do not drop at a even rate because the aircraft is in motion changing altitudes. In addition, Luke AFB tower said they did not any aircraft in the air at the time of the incident. Our rich uncle got caught with his pants down on that one!
Exactly! It was just there and then it was not. What we saw moved very slowly and silently right to left above us. And then, it was just... gone! We got out of the car to observe it...
It's observation was seen in at least across 3 states.
My friend and I agreed immediately to not discuss what we saw with each other and then to draw and write about what we saw independently. We waited about a month, and then had witnesses. What we both drew and described in writing was identical. We still occasionally talk to each other and reassure ourselves that we saw what we know we saw...
There was no internet back then. Over the years we have become aware of many others who saw the exact thing. Many were near large military installations. For instance, near Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio and Fort Sill in Lawton Okla...
LOL! And then the governor gave a press conference and brought in somebody dressed in an alien costume. People were upset at that because they feel he made light of the whole thing
Fort Sam Houston? Why? I thought that was an Army medical facility that also trains medical personnel?
What is so danged interesting about earth that thousands of alien vehicles would want to come here?
"UFO's" sound like a plausible thing until you actually think about it.
There have been many thousands of "sightings" of UFO's over the years, and yet no actual physical evidence ? There may be unexplained natural phenomena , but visitation to earth from other solar systems? Extremely unlikely, especially in the numbers we always hear about.
a trillion plus planets in the universe and were on the only one with a form of life? uh huh ...
those UFO sightings are proof that aliens have a sense of humor and are fucking with a lesser developed life form centuries behind them in technology. it's probably alien teenagers out for a joyride and then laughing about that shit from watching intercepted media satellite news transmissions about the videos with them in it ...
No, but they probably steer around the hillbillies of the universe on general principle.
I could be wrong, because I am not that scientifically inclined, but I'm fairly sure that the laws of physics are believed to apply to every nook and corner of physical existence. The only way visitors from other worlds could come here is if they are a race of people who basically live forever and have endless amounts of time to spend traveling millions and billions of miles across space to descend on an insignificant planet in the middle of nowhere ( the main reason this is hard to believe is that any extraterrestrial civilization capable of coming here from those distances would by definition far advanced compared to earth) , or, they dont travel across space but somehow between dimensions.
there's probably an intergalactic treaty not to interfere with planets that are dominated by double digit IQ's ...
They use a combination of warp speed and inter-dimensional travel. I saw it on TV.
why would those laws apply outside of our world to beings at least 3 millennium ahead of us in technology?
The whole "flying saucer" thing was a response to scientific advancements on earth that were deemed an existential threat ( the atomic bomb). The myth was then created that beings from other planets were coming here to warn us about our scientific folly. If it were a real thing there would be indisputable evidence of it by now. "Space men" are new age religious symbols.
Because those laws apply everywhere. The speed of light is the speed of light.
No, a physical object cannot go faster than the speed of light 1 2 3 4 5 . As an object approaches the speed of light, its mass increases and requires an infinite amount of energy to move 1 3 . Only massless particles, such as photons, can travel at the speed of light 2 .
when locomotives were invented, some people claimed that traveling faster than 25mph would be fatal ...
I dont think the speed of light can change , no matter where you are in the universe.
The closest potentially inhabitable planet is 13 light years away. Even if they developed a method of traveling close to the speed of light it would take 13 years to get here. Time is time, because of the laws of relativity time passes in the same way everywhere. If these beings live hundreds of years maybe 26 years to earth and back wouldnt seem like much , and that is possible I suppose, but there is still the question of how they got here and why. None of the pictures I have seen of UFO's look like something that could travel at the speed of light.
no argument there, but einstein suggested the concept of black holes/worm holes and bending time well before we knew that existed ...
Anthropology students on class field trips.
ummm...the ones I've seen were where the PA hillibillies live
They don't live forever. The Queen lays eggs and they hatch to become new crew members. And the Queen is replaced periodically
We only know the physics that we have discovered.
There have been tens of thousands of ufo sightings in the past 70 years or so. Does that sound like something that is real?
more realistic than most of the bible bullshit I've heard ...
yes
thousands of trips have been made here from other galaxies? for what? they dont even land or communicate with us. sorry, it makes no sense
Wormholes in space are called Einstein - Rosen bridges. They are still theoretical though there is new evidence that black holes are spitting back more mass in the back end (white holes) than previously thought possible.
Resources. They don't have to communicate with us. They're stronger. They will just take it
so beings from trillions of miles away come to earth to take our resources? we must be special
The closest inhabitable planet ( doesnt mean it is inhabited, just that is has the potential to be) is 70 trillion miles from earth.
Water, John. Water.
Probably just waiting for us to wipe each other off the planet..then take over..
With Putin, Trump, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un and others what could possibly go wrong..
lol
I give this world another 12 months
I can tell you watch a lot of movies.
Oh yeah? What kind of movies?
lol
that's mike huckabee's schedule in the holy land ...
Same thing was said about air travel and the speed of sound. People really believed there was a physical barrier in the sky and that it would kill whoever approached or surpassed it.
That movie is all wrong. They're not friendly. I don't care what Alan Hynek said
And now we can fly to the moon and back
sure it can, just move the hands.
sounds like a Honeymooner, in chains, with Alice...
You should read Waiting for the Galactic Bus by Parke Godwin.
To be believe we are only ones is the ultimate vanity.
The one that I saw landed, was on the ground and then took off after I brandished a pistol. That was communication.
I never claimed to believe that. I only claim that we are very, very far away from any other potential life. I do wonder why any advanced species would be so secretive or why they would used the diversity of vehicles people claimed to have seen.
I was not referring to you specifically to you, but rather to humanity in general.
I think of Earth, being way out in the spiral arm of the Milky Way Galaxy as it is as, being way out on the other side of the tracks. To them we are probably just not that interesting as a species and ET's don't want to get their feet dirty stepping on Earth.
we're a petri dish way out where we can't contaminate the rest of the universe, no matter what we do here ...
