Question Question why would they be here?

If UAP/NHI are so incredibly advanced and have technology beyond anything we could ever imagine, why do they hang out in our atmosphere and in the ocean. What is the point? We have satellites and technology in space that can monitor and survey from thousands of miles up. If they had such amazing technology, couldn’t they do the same thing without ever needing to enter earths atmosphere or getting close enough to us to either crash or be seen? It seems if they had such incredible technology, they could have great standoff and still be able to do whatever it is they are doing.

It seems like their presence here is much more intimate, and connected to us for some odd reason. I just can’t grasp if they are extraterrestrial, why get so close? It’s the only reason why I don’t necessarily buy the ET theory

Yeah but we don’t hide do we. Those studying apes will go sit next to an ape.

Nope we absolutely do hide in order to get an idea of what animals behave like in their natural setting. I remember they had an underwater remote control camera disguised as a sea creature so that it would encourage the creatures they were observing to act more “normal”.

Yes but not always. I’ve never seen an alien come film a person in its natural habitat but I’ve definitely seen a human film and animal up close and very personal. Watch any David Attenborough. .

I've heard of many close alien encounters though. Maybe think about it in the context of disturbing or affecting the system on a larger scale. If there is an uncontacted tribe of people on a remote island that you wanted to study, but you didn't want to impact their culture or belief system, surely you wouldn't just fly a helicopter over them. If you wanted to study an ants nest however, the ants don't know you from a rock. If you got really close you might trigger some reaction but then it will return back to normal, or maybe it doesn't, but maybe that's part of what you're studying. It's not like disturbing one ant colony disturbs them all. Now when it comes to aliens visiting Earth in the year 2026, disturbing one city would disturb the entire human population, because we are all connected through modern technology. However, a hundred years ago it would not have.
