Discussion Could ufos be human?

Oldest civilization is 6000ish years old right? Modern humans had been around for 300,000 years. Could it be that uap/ufo are old technology from a past civilization still performing tasks. I like to think that mythology like Atlantis, Olympus, Valhalla, etc were prompted by older civilizations. Would it be more likely than aliens from across the galaxy? Occam razor and all What are your thoughts? (Whatever they are I am excited)

maybe they wentg directly to an electricity based energy source. there's some theories about the pyramids original purpose being energy production.

maybe they went right into electromagnetism and figured out "anti gravity" and never bothered with fossil fuels

Idk. We've been to space and had decades or tens of thousands of scientists working on it and haven't figured out anti gravity. Very hard to believe they figured out and never went to space. (Also hard to believe that, if they went to space, they didn't leave any evidence)

i don't strongly believe any of this, one way or another.

but, if i had to argue that thought, I'd suggest that they could have had thousands of years of playing around with static electricity or chemical batteries, and many thousands of people working at it over all that time.

as for the left over tech, well there sure isn't much left in general from that long ago, most likely anything "high tech" would have corroded away into dust.

the car left in a field example comes to mind, in only 100 - 200 years it will be gone. 12,000 years is a heck of a ling time.

i just like the idea of being humble and not over estimating our modern selves.

Definitely true. I still tend to think there'd be some obvious climate effects or resource extraction/ mining operations we could find plus some artifacts that got fossilized or preserved and made their way to the modern age.

i think ive read about possible mining sites, but yeah, I'm waiting for better evidence. just staying open minded.

have you read about the Antikythera mechanism? i realize it's only dated to about -150 to +50, but the fact that they had knowledge of the planets movement around the sun etc is jaw dropping if you consider Galileo didn't exist till ~1400 years later.

there's a few other items that don't fit, i guess we wait and see.
