Some very interesting comments. But notice that no one talks
about interstellar travel, colonization, migration,
terraforming, alien visitation. But how did the people on planet
Earth wind up where they are? The blinders are still on.

My latest column for the MUFON Journal deals with a major reason
for UFO debunking: a resistance to understanding how much the
technology of Earth has changed in the last couple of hundred
years and how unlikely it is that others haven't already become
much more advanced than we have.

As noted, our civilization is very very young on a cosmic scale.

Time to get rid of our ego and arrogance.
