As an amateur astronomer, I'd agree. The numbers are beyond staggering. In fact panspermia seems likely. (panspermia, the interstellar travel of dormant life, over millions of years)
However, it's unfeasible to believe we have random and elusive visitors. Many people don't understand that even nuclear power is insufficient for rapid interstellar travel.
As a high time pilot, I've never seen anything otherworldly. The only out of the ordinary flying object I've ever seen was an offshore, low altitude missile in flight, and it behaved as expected, with limited rocket engine duration.
