Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I'd love to know what NASA has planned for it.

UFOs are most likely manmade, or probably something other-dimensional like angels or demons. The distances in space are too vast for visitors, the idea breaks down in more than one way once you dig into it.

    I'm enjoying this - "We've learned enough science now that we realize it's more likely fantasy creatures would be visiting us than that technologically advanced sentients would be traveling interstellar distances to visit."

    We have no way of knowing if they've overcome the obstacle of traveling long distances in space.
