I do think aliens have been around more than we think.
You look into the night sky and see millions of stars, which are suns. Suns that can help sustain life. It might not be in a way we can imagine, or that there are humans living on another type of earth.
We only guess at the universe, as we do not have the technology to go even to places like Mars. It used to take over eighty years to travel there, and the only thing we have put on the planet are robots. Even Mars, without any life as we know it, could have held life billions of years ago, we don’t really know.
I have never seen any aliens, but then it doesn’t mean they don’t exist. How many sightings over the years? People looking in the sky, seeing a plane, that might not have been that at all.
Aliens, if they have any sense, wouldn’t visit here. They must look at us, not consider us a threat, and move on to the next planet. Or look at us, think we are an aggressive life force and move on to the next planet.
So, I do think aliens exist, but they don’t think we are worthy to communicate with.
If the aliens are smart enough to reach us, then they would probably ignore us as a lower life form.

They probably would.
