Strange! I have no doubt that we are and have been visited now and in the past. There is way too much evidence of ET visitation, including abduction, encounters, cryptids and mutilations.
As for this object? Don't really know, but one day we are sure to find out.
There is waay too much SECRECY amongst Government lines regarding this type of thing.
What are they scared of?
I always say:

Give The People The Information And Let Them Decide.

My RC's are at critical level - Input on hold lol
