Once again, what possible reason would extraterrestrials travel trillions of miles, many light years to get to planet Earth, and with all that technology they posses crash on Earth? Or I guess many somehow transport the people they capture and do weird things like probe the backside on people. The primitive humans at virtually every hospital have x-rays, CT scans and MRI to look inside the body, and the folks from some other planet have to go for the colonoscopy method? Do they keep the humans for a while and make them do a full "cleanse" like we have to do before a colonoscopy?

What are they looking for in the colon of humans? And they travel all this way to look there?

I listened to this podcast a few weeks ago, really hard to discredit this one. He comes across as rational, calm, and collected, just like the many other fighter pilots I have worked with in the past.

One excellent description I heard on this topic, we always try to explain these things in the context of our own science and understanding. Imagine going back in time with an iPhone even semi-recent history, call it the 1700s. They would think you were a sorcerer because there is no context to help explain it.

Or travel all that way just to rile up the locals with some lights in the sky?

To quote Arthur C. Clarke: "Any sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from magic."
