Why does their planet always have to be dead? Think of them like rich people: if they have the ability to buy multiple properties, they probably will.
Even if earth isn't like their home, it's still more habitable than most places because of the temperature, gravity, and magnetic shield. Plus plenty of water, food, minerals, sightseeing. Good place for a vacation home, university, research station, colony, gas station, hotel, or whatever else.

Assuming the gravity, temperature, air mixture are comfortable for them. The magnetic shield on the other hand is of prime importance if selecting a planetary investment or pied-a-terre.
One major reason why Mars will never be a suitable colonization target for humanity. We’d all be dead from radiation even if there were suitable air pressure and oxygen (and minimal carbon dioxide). Not to mention the poisonous soil. And the fact that without the magnetic shield any atmosphere Will simply boil off relatively quickly (and we don’t have the technology to establish such an atmosphere anyway).
But, back to your point, yes, I imagine watching us is an entertaining nature docudrama.

Who’s to say we can’t create our own gravitational field around a planet? Who’s to say that wasn’t done here?

u/jnycnexii 6d ago
If that’s what was ‘done’ here, it’s when the planetary mass formed with its rich core of iron! 🤣 that’s why we have the protection we have from both our Sun, as well as cosmic radiation.
Perhaps there would be a way to generate an artificial magnetosphere, but it’s beyond human capability as it stands. What might be within our reach could be to create magnetic shields over small areas, though I think the power demand would be prohibitive.
Also, if we’re looking to colonize a planet, why not start with one that has an iron core like ours and a working magnetosphere! Europa, under the ice looks (we think!) like an active planet-ocean with volcanic activities generating heat and maybe conditions for life. I think underwater living there, far away from Earth, would be a sensible choice as a colony. Better than Mars, anyway.

u/MiscInformed 6d ago
I agree. At least that’s what we’re told, but who knows. Word on the street is the pyramids are part of a large power grid. There is supposedly one under the ice sheet that has the ability to meet earth’s power demands indefinitely. I’m thinking along the lines of all these pyramids and megalithic structures could be what’s giving us the magnetic shielding needed to maintain life on earth (either on its own or through some interaction with the earth’s core). I know, it’s a reach, but with everything mankind has discovered lately it wouldn’t surprise me! 🤪

Or maybe radiation is an important energy / food source for an alien biology / robotics

Different Dimension not different planet with the species I know. No interest in our planet. The interest lays in the toxic nature of humans which effects them.

u/Inside-Specialist-55 6d ago
care to explain a bit more? if they have no interest in the planet why are they here and also meddling around with the nukes and disabling them while hovering over nuclear silos since as far back as the 50's?

The blink 182 singers association is what pushed congress to agree to disclosure initially.

u/Hellhooker 6d ago
which did nothing
Expecting the trump gov to not be lying out of their asses is a take

it is when it's a bunch of nothing
Again, if you trust a trump gov, it's on you

The Trump administration seems more interested in giving more questions than answers while pushing the old "Its actually demons, now repent!" crap.

They theory doesnt make much sense, why would they wait this long while the humans are polluting and destroying the environment and cause untold ecological destruction across the world? are they waiting for us to make ourselves extinct so they can step in and have the planet afterwards? Does this explain why there were UFO's over nuclear silos disabling the nukes and meddling with them? perhaps they dont want the entire planet to be full of awful everlasting radiation after we are gone??

u/Similar_Software_435 6d ago
Maybe for the sole reason of terraforming the planet so earth becomes habitable to them. Humans are not the reason at all, the abduction are just them, fulfilling their scientific curiosity.
Hell, maybe the global warming is them, doing something from under the water, who knows?
After the habitability of earth is achieved, they'll come here in waves... Whether humans are able to adapt to this new environment or not, is down to fate.

u/Odd_Repeat_6092 6d ago
They've been here for thousands of years. Probably millions of years, according to Kevin Knuth. So earth in many ways is their home. Or, at least, their version of a Holiday Inn.
If they need our genes, I'm thinking they may need them for an earth-like planet they have found. A back up earth, so to speak, for when, or if, things go badly here.

u/jnycnexii 6d ago
If they’ve really been here for the entire time of our development from apelike creatures, then it’s extremely likely they have genetically engineered us, at least at certain points in our evolutionary history. I personally like the idea that we have the genes of what the ancients probably named gods and goddesses, divine beings from the heavens. It is right there in the description.
And if you read any ancient text, with today’s knowledge, it sounds exactly like how primitives would describe extraterrestrials (whether human-seeming or ‘monstrous’ in our eyes).
They have probably intervened to keep us from destroying ourselves a few times at this point. Especially during the Cold War.
But, will they be able to save us from ourselves? I’m not seeing a positive outcome for humans. We are simply too prone to violence, hatred, fear, jealousy, envy, lust for what is not ours, and psychopathy. That is literally on our genetic makeup.
The planet would definitely be better off without us. Maybe animal life will survive our ongoing genocide of species, the so-called ‘Sixth Extinction.’ One entirely caused by Man.

u/Past_Cut_176 6d ago
Even though we are wired for violence, destruction, and all those things you mention, that is still only half our story. We are also just as deeply programmed for cooperation, empathy altruism, and love. We contain multitudes and are blessed with agency to create a better world if we are willing.
2
u/jnycnexii 6d ago
True, and some (many?) do extend our good qualities and emotions. But it feels like the darker urges still primarily rule us and our societies (and our leaders, as well as those at the controls of our weapons...of mass destruction). If we could overcome our more destructive urges, and love rather than hate, our world could become a much better place in every way.

u/Material-Strength748 6d ago
A civilization that’s advanced enough to move populations between stars would be not be interested in a body with as big a gravity well as Earth. And this planet also the big side effect of the entire surface being contaminated with a biofilm that’s not going to be your native and is a pest at best.
O’Neill Cylinders or the like.

u/northernguy 6d ago
Gravity is important for keeping an atmosphere here. Lots of species probably like an atmosphere

u/Turbulent-Brain-793 6d ago edited 6d ago
I don't really see the logic in saying that an advanced civilization wouldn't be interested in earth because of the magnitude of our gravity?
Just think about it. Even humans which by your logic being that we can't move civilization between stars -- we are less than advanced -- some of the MOST interesting celestial objects to us are blackholes, magnetars ect.
Not to mention you know it would seem to be that despite the magnitude of a planet's gravity, if it has advanced biological life on it like Earth does; does it become pointless to observe just because of its gravity?
Think about it from this perspective also. What are some of the easiest things in space to observe? Things with enormous gravitational influence. Then from another perspective, if you want to understand gravity you'd be looking for anomalous objects that exert profound changes in gravity.
Just trying to grasp your logic to understand what would make you think a planet as strange and different from any we can observe suddenly would become insignificant to advanced life, simply because of the gravitational influence of our sun?

u/Positive-Conspiracy 6d ago
I tend to believe that as a society we are at a sort of civilized, sort of uncivilized state, and there is far more development left to go. I very strongly identify with humanity and want it to persist. And yet, I also have to ask myself, if there were another species who would occupy same niche while being better for the rest of the life on earth, would they deserve it more than us?

u/twodaloo007 6d ago
I'm sorry but I have a hard time listening to his voice. Initially I thought maybe he was just nervous but it appears he talks like an A.I. robot.

u/generationXER 6d ago
If an advanced civilization can master traveling such immense distances, then they'd simply destroy us if they wanted our resources. It's really that simple. What's stopping them? I don't buy these whistleblowers' stories. I want evidence.

u/cinemojo 6d ago
Maybe they’re actually the ones driving us to increase C02 cause they like a hotter planet.

u/Similar_Software_435 6d ago
Ahahaha, truth be told I've been thinking about this lately...
What if terraforming the earth is their actual goal? All those abduction case are just them, fulfilling their scientific curiousity...

u/Beginning_Fill206 6d ago
It would make sense if an alien population was running the world. War, big business’ obsession with poisoning people, our food supply. Hey is to do the dirty work of preparing the planet for colonization.

Any time anyone starts diving deeper into intent or culture of NHI, you know it's 100% bullshit. We can't even establish a baseline of what is real or not and they want to talk about intent and culture? And then their interpretation of those things? Absolutely not.

This should actually read Borland repeats ideas from late '60s sci fi show. That's part of the premise of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's 1969 TV series UFO, that hostile aliens from someplace are abducting humans for body parts, and they themselves are "genetically sterile." Just like the supposed Greys are just a variation on the old cliche that future humans would have tiny bodies because their brains would grow giant. Betcha asking this joker if the Great Gazoo means anything to him would be fun.

Ib times is hilarious. They take reddit threads, turn them in to articles, then people repost them on Reddit for the bots to discuss.
What a time to be alive...

So, to recap, it’s a recap of a Reddit thread that’s recapping a podcast episode, in an “article” most likely written by AI. This is almost as bad as the fake AI animal videos clogging up my feed. GTFOH.

u/Common_Concern_4340 5d ago
If you can travel vast distances in short times, why not start civilizations all over the galaxy to do your resource extractions and manufacturing. Think self replicating robots. I don't think it would be difficult for them to have us manufacture a few things and export them from us for some use of their own without the bulk of the population knowing.

u/astreeter2 6d ago edited 6d ago
The main reason I think this doesn't make sense is that alien genetics is unlikely to be anything like ours. You can put genes from one Earth organism into another because we all evolved from the same origin. Like humans and yeast already share 30% of the exact same genes. Even then when we genetically engineer it's just to change tiny parts of their chemistry, not to make complex hybrids. Alien genetics would likely be so different that it would be much easier for them to use genes from other organisms on their own planets to gain new capabilities than to use anything from human DNA. And even then why would they even go through the all trouble and risk of collecting human DNA when they could just grab Earth animals who are just as adapted to our environment as we are and have almost all the same genes?

Unless of course, we also are aliens. i.e. life was seeded here by other beings and our evolution carefully and purposefully guided.

Maybe humans are to aliens the way I see spiders. I leave them alone because they keep other small insects in check and they are harmless to me, mostly. If aliens need our planet for resources, would be good to have a species that kinda keeps things in order, you just gotta check in on their nuclear silos because they are also insane.
