What value would there bo to alien visitation, as is typically presented by UFOers? We are a small non-descript planet circling a medium to small sun on the outer arm of our galaxy. What about us would draw attention?

OK, there is the chance some unintended galactic voyage would go astray and we would arbitrarily wind up the crash site. But the chances of that? Esp with all of the much more massive gravitational bodies immediately surrounding us.

What of intentional visitation as UFOers like to promote? To do what? To "probe" us with what would seem antiquated instraments? Any species far enough advanced to make the trip would be far from that backwards in medical technology.

For these and many other reason, it just does not make good sense.
