The weirdest part to me isn’t the concept of an advanced alien civilization visiting earth but rather the notion that they crash so god damn often which kinda undermines the whole “advanced” part or means that visitations are so ubiquitous that the law of large numbers comes into play that would make crashes actually likely.
Our own aircrafts crash quite rarely, and space craft accidents especially for manned flight are even rarer and arguably we are still newbies that have no idea what we are doing compared to a space faring civilization capable of interplanetary travel not to mention interstellar travel.
If these crafts are so damn common then they would also be commonly tracked, stealth in space is hard, stealth during re-entry is near impossible. We currently track objects as small as 5cm and under in orbit regularly with systems like the SSN and the US isn’t the only one with tracking systems capable of tracking 1-5cm objects, orbital tracking is actually easier than tracking objects at lower altitudes due to the horizon.
