I’ve been hesitant to share my theory, as I genuinely think it sounds a little crazy. See, I very much try to be a rational and unbiased person, but there have been several things that have made me believe this theory over others. There’s a bit to this, so I’ll just make them as points to get to the point.

A. These drones/UFOs often do not appear to be alien or NHI. Rather, most of them look man made or something we could be capable of - if not within the near future.

B. They have appeared in places that should draw much more attention to them than they are, such as the White House. Any normal drone over the White House would be shot down, the person controlling it likely found and given a warning if not worse.

C. They are not doing anything. They aren’t killing people, they aren’t shutting down nukes, they aren’t doing anything besides just floating around.

D. Timing. The timing of all of this happening is more than likely not a coincidence - regardless of whatever it is. These events are probably related to the times we are entering into.

That’s the necessary context for my theory. Now, my theory: they are manned by time travelers trying to find a way to communicate whilst avoiding direct interaction.

I know this sounds a bit wild, but keep in mind proposed ideas and rules/principles that would be in place if a future society has harnessed time travel. One of the biggest rules would be that they cannot interact or change anything as it can create a paradox. On the other hand, indirect interaction is something that would be possible. See, you can still influence something without saying or doing something directly. Such as, just flying drones around places of interest or being in places they can be spotted to point people in the right direction, make them ask the right questions that put themselves on the correct path.

A supporting theory to this would be the Rosewell crash or the other crashes that are more reputable. These are surrounded by secrecy, whilst also be respected and acknowledged for actually occurring. There is evidence and witness account to support Rosewell happening, but our government simply denies it. We have always expected it to be aliens, which led us to a lot of theories at to why the government would keep aliens a secret. But, time travelers? That’s a much simpler answer: we don’t have time travel yet.

If these UFO’s were never aliens, these crashes could have led humans to go to retrieve aliens bodies only to realize it is humans from a future time. Falling in line with the rules of time travel, current time humans might have agreed to secrecy to not create a major event or paradox. Whilst this might sound crazy, it’s just as fantastical as the idea these could be beings from another planet.

The point of this post isn’t to say I’m right, but rather that maybe we should start looking at things differently. Sometimes you have to look at the puzzle a little differently to see how it fits together. These occurrences don’t need to be without avail. If they end up just being a very smart and rich teenage hell bent on global attention, we should ask the right questions that get us those answers. Let’s not just keep sitting back and filming them, like that changes anything about this. There are great minds out there and with a little effort and collaboration maybe the public doesn’t have to accept defeat on this one.
