They've been here throughout Earth's history. It's not likely an advanced civilization would be casually observing us for thousands of years.
More likely, they are from Earth, and are phenomena we can't observe yet because our technology hasn't caught up to a level where we can detect these things at will. (Kind of like ghosts.)
Or if they really are from outer space, they are from a system so close to ours that flying by is just a stop on the way somewhere else. |
Or what many people think, they are from earth, from our future and found a way to go back in time.
But to simply say another life form 1000's of years more advanced than us couldn't learn to travel faster than light is living in a bubble IMO.
