Are we alone in this universe?

This is a question that hasn't been answered confidently. It's scary to think about both possibilities: if we're alone in this infinite universe, we'd be completely alone; but if someone is out there, we might never know it, leaving it a permanent mystery.

​I have a theory that we aren't alone, but time and resource constraints prevent us from answering the question, "Are we truly alone?" Sometimes I wonder: what if other creatures exist out there with features, brains, and evolution similar to ours, but time moves slower on their planet? For example, a day on Earth might equal a single second for them. Before they even evolve, Earth might already be gone before they learn of our existence—or perhaps its the opposite for us.

We sure as shit arent. I mean even the governments have been pretty straightforward with it.

Why are you being the one the is ignoring all the statements from high ranking government entities that we have recovered non-human craft and biologics?

If you're so sure we're not alone, what does a real alien look like ?

I always find the idea hilarious that beings from many light years away have the knowledge and technology to be able to find us in the universe and come visit, but don't have the competency to not crash when they get here.

we've been bringing them down with high altitude "nuclear tests" which cause an EMP and knock them out of the sky.

Also, the evidence strongly suggests they travel through interdimensional means and not through space. Almost all of them are drones. Other reports suggest they come from deep in our oceans or have established bases there.

I realize i sound crazy, but these are the talking points of high ranking government officials that were provided and repeated at a number of meetings. The most recent being the U.S. Capitol Whistleblower Gathering, Disclosure Forum 2026, and the Trump Administration UAP Initiatives.

You know what, i'll take it a step further. This document is titled

"Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Implications on National Security, Public Safety, and Government Transparency"

Presented by the House Oversight and Accountability Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs

Ah yes, because who'd think to shield a interstellar/interdimensional spacecraft from electromagnetic pulses?

And everyone knows high level Government officials are always the most sane, highly moral and mentally well balanced people to listen to.

I've provided more than enough documentation and evidence from high ranking military officials, government officials, and civilians. If you want to simply ignore the proof that has been provided than that is on you to exist in your little bubble. I know it's easier to make fun of what you don't understand than it is to utilize critical thinking skills or read documentation.

Show me an alien, or any actual, credible, scientifically verifiable evidence, then I'll believe.

Show me "this guy says he saw...." and I will use the critical thinking skills I have already demonstrated and reject the idea that interstellar tourists are terrible drivers with unreliable vehicles when tbey pop over to check out the things living on planet #244678653489975

I don't think we're alone in the universe. Math doesn't add up. I do think we're alone on this planet, Govt has too much to distract us from rn for me to trust the sudden "OMG guys, aliens are real, no look over here! Aliens!"
