I'm not normally a UFO guy, but has anyone seen the latest from the USA Navy? (I think?) just declassified a 2015 encounter with a totally bizarre craft. I'm not convinced it isn't someones super advanced drone, but it's compelling at least that it's not a drunken shaky cell phone video, I mean an F-18 videofeed is pretty legit to me.
here's a good clip video with an interview

Because of our limited scientific understanding its very comfortable for humans to assume that if we can't do it no one can.
So typical for us to think of ourselves as the ultimate in evolutionary biology and place ourselves at the absolute top of the pecking order in the universe.
I don't have any way to prove we have been visited by beings from another world but I am confident that in this vast universe we are far from the most impressive civilization.
We can barely send robotic probes to our neighboring planets nevermind reaching out to the nearest stars.
Just imagine what our scientific knowledge would be like if we weren't murdering each other and we were able to not only pool the resources of the world but dedicate 100% of our efforts toward discovery instead of marvels like reality tv and Facebook.
Just saying.

Thats not the source of my skepticism.. I definitely dont think humans are all that .. I agree humans do have a tendency to anthropocentrism.. I absolutely think there is life in other universes, presumably even this universe.
My skepticism arises from the numerous false sightings, the alien tourist trek in the US and possibly elsewhere, and what seems like alien groupie movements everywhere.
This was US Navy footage .. and I havent seen it.

It's clearly a probe that was sent to check on the whales.
Nah, it's probably terrestrial. Probably somebody else's classified something-or-other - the question is, was it a test to see what we'd do, or were we not meant to see it? That will probably never be answered. (Or if anyone does know, it's probably classified.)

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?
.. well 
maybe as a rookie ensign ... 
.. even for you Av 
.. but I might take a rain check on that recommendation 
In all my time on this planet I have never seen a UFO...
I guess the only way I would believe if they stopped over my house
came down and danced the Merengue on my front lawn.
Then I might think something different.
Considering I live within 3 miles (That almost 5 KM to you metric peeps)
of the original Hanger 18. No sight or sound has been heard.
You think them so call fellows would want their shet back...

The coolest object I've ever seen in the sky was a meteor that was glowing with a green penumbra as it burned up in the atmosphere. I've never seen a UFO.
Also, just going to say that I do believe it is very likely that life exists in some form or another elsewhere in the universe due to 1) the abundance of organics in the universe, 2) the sheer size of the universe (over 100,000,000 galaxies) and 3) data supports the idea that most stars have planets. Also, other planets and planetary objects (such as Mars and some moons orbiting the outer planets) bear remarkable similarities to Earth in many ways. For example, the Curiosity mission discovered that there used to be lakes and rivers on the surface of Mars that had flowing water. There's evidence that the lakes evaporated over time earlier in Mars' history. Liquid water also exists on Mars, although it is scarce.
Also, from an evolutionary perspective, it is conceivable to find organisms that have similar forms to what we are familiar with on Earth. Flight has evolved independently multiple times, as have a few other characteristics.

.. I agree entirely
