I think I can assume from here that there aren’t any aliens, because they would NOT be touching this for a cheap distraction if there was anything of note to see.
Life of any kind on other worlds would upend lots of religious doctrine which insists that this place is special and that life was specifically put here for us.
But then again that assumes that these religions are logically consistent, so it probably wouldn’t matter.
Information being classified doesn’t mean much, people classify all kinds of dumb shit to the point that training had to be implemented to prevent OVER-classification
That would be a humongous world-changing announcement in a sane timeline. Half the people in our stupid culture wouldn’t even register it as a blip though.
In situations like this I like to think of the history students a thousand years from now, assuming the earth is still habitable, etc.
"So humanity’s first public recognition of extraterrestrial life only happened when it did to distract from the fact that the Big Country at the time had reelected the planet’s worst person AGAIN and they needed to delay justice until they died for… let me double check the text… they needed to delay getting in trouble for being at the top of a global human trafficking and rape operation?
And I am supposed to believe these people had running water, airplanes, internet, and space programs? They lied about every other damn thing!"

Oh i don’t doubt its aliens, just… microbial. Literally nothing major to speak of, single celled organisms.
That’s still infinitely more extraterrestrial life than we have proof of today

Yeah this is devastating news for UFO enthusiasts. Even the craziest alien conspiracist probably understands when Trump is wriggling like an eel
