re: Why would a UFO even have lights?

Do you know what UFO means?

Yes

Replace UFO with alien spaceship if you want your title to make more sense.

Dont be that guy, nobody likes that guy. I'm pretty sure everyone knew what I meant and it made perfect sense to them and even you.

For the same reason we don't give a shite what ants think of us.

Doesn't add up. If aliens exist and are visiting us, they are certainly intentionally stealthy.

OSHA is very powerful and can be persuasive.

Mom always leaves the porch light on.

I hate it when they drive with their flashers on while flying through comet trails.

What if life is exceedingly rare in the universe, or so dispersed that we are one of the only other intelligent civilizations within their reach?

Then they are even less likely to find us.

what makes you think they wouldn't be interested in studying us? Look at how humans study all various forms of life on Earth. Completely inferior to us and we study them intensely and into perpetuity

---

Humans don't have to travel any significant distance or invest much at all into studying the inferior species that surround us. Also, those inferior species you refer to, in many cases, like bacteria, fungus, etc. actually have an impact on us and our existence on this planet. Lastly, we would be primitive by comparison to any alien visitors able to get here. Our scientific tools that we use to gradually study organisms in our backyard would pale in comparison to theirs. They would have a nearly full understanding rather quickly. That would not require decades or centuries of visits.

You had to have gotten expelled from the wet blanket club for being that guy who takes it upon himself to be the “just keeping it real, folks”, guy.

They can’t get an inspection sticker without lights

[quote]Why is it they can fly millions of miles through space yet they always seem to crash when they get here? Why do they only go to rural deserted locations? Why not fly into NYC?[/quote

Very few (1?) stories of UFO crashes and UFOs have been seen over several major cities

My girlfriend actually saw this UFO situation in Holland Michigan back in the mid 90s. It was in the evening and she was down on the beach with her friends. Went running up to the house because they were scared shitless. She explained the weird lights and how they would quickly change position and elevation.

Tons of people saw it and reported it, and this is a conversation between the weather service and an air traffic guy. Air traffic guy starts out skeptical and then end up basically WTF.
