Ufo Thoughts... According to the internet millions of ufo's have been seen all over the world. Unfortunately, no one could get a good photo. During the past few 50 years SETI - an american research institution that looks for aliens with row after row of hundreds of gigantic satellite dishes has found exactly zero aliens.

The Fermi Paradox describes the contradiction between the high likelihood of extraterrestrial life and the lack of evidence for it.
There are many theories to try and resolve the Paradox but I tend toward the following. Intelligent life has to reach a level of technological advancement that they could achieve faster than light travel and faster than light communication. However before that point they develop lots of other stuff like Atom Bombs, AI etc. One or more of the earlier advancements leads to their Armageddon and so they never reach the point of intergalactic travel.
And so too will be our fate.

SETI was a nice idea, but a bit naive. Any sufficiently advanced civilization would not use radio signals that travel at the slow slow speed of light for communication in interstellar or intergalactic space.
From here to the Moon a radio signal has a 2.5 second round trip. To Saturn it would take about a 2.6 hour round trip for a signal. A round trip signal to Proxima Centauri would take 8.4 years. Those are some heavy delays in a communication signal. A useful conversation under those conditions would be rather difficult.
Using a radio signal to call for roadside assistance on your way to Proxima Centauri would be imprudent.
