The other planet would need a few things ...
A special planet: the habitable Earth
"What makes the Earth habitable? It is the right distance from the Sun, it is protected from harmful solar radiation by its magnetic field, it is kept warm by an insulating atmosphere, and it has the right chemical ingredients for life, including water and carbon."
"Life on Earth needs the atmosphere to breath. Animals take in breathable oxygen from the atmosphere and use it to metabolize food into energy. Plants use carbon dioxide to grow and sustain life."
Sorry charlie, you'll never get me sucked into it; not without a few shrooms and a joint.

Sorry charlies, the needs of the planet to have the ability to support life out weigh the possibilities of life on another planet.

Life forms on other planets may not be in the least human.
I feel it’s a distraction. My husband who is NOT a conspiracy theorist in any way even noticed this uptick in stories related to UFOs and aliens over the last like 4-6 months.
I don’t believe there’s life anywhere but Earth, and I find it very odd that after covering up any “alien†stuff for decades, the govt and media are openly questioning it. It doesn’t sit right with me.
Bingo! Red Herrings were used in the 60's when ever something strange appeared in our skies. My biggest fear is that these are foreign technologies from a geopolitical adversary. The nearest planet that may be habitable to us is a mere 4,000 plus light years away. The odds that someone from another planet traveled here? Astronomical.

Well you are assuming that the planets we know of are the only ones and that aliens would need oxygen and carbon dioxide to live.

Not if they know how to connect time and space. We don't.
What if it turns out, that WE are the aliens? We might be an infection, like mold growing in their ice machine? The presumption that it is they visiting our world might be azzbackwards...
Really? You don't just believe that life from elsewhere has never visited us, but that there is no life anywhere else in the universe but here? That seems extremely unlikely.
It does not matter whether likely or not, but it is mostly irrelevant. If the ancient people leaving footprints in the New Mexico desert 22,000 years ago had launched a spacecraft moving at the speed of light toward the center of our galaxy it would still not reach the center for another 4,000 years, sometime around the year 2422. In light years reasoning, Voyager I, launched in 1977 into deep space, is about 19 light hours away, not even a light day. It will reach one light day in 2026. Voyager I will reach one light year away in the year 19977. The closest known exoplanet, Proxima Centauri b, is located four light-years away from Earth. So far, we have not found any evidence of intelligent life in our solar system (except us). The VLA telescope in New Mexico is sensitive enough to register if a cell phone was operating on Jupiter. There aren't any. If there are actually unidentified things flying around our heads, they are most likely earth-made by earthlings.
There are all sorts of unidentified-objects, intruding on American airspace, that may have a military-objective.
