First off, a little history lesson is in order. The term UFO means Unidentified Flying Object. This definition came out in the early to mid fifties as a way of countering the "flying saucer" description ascribed during the Kenneth Arnold sighting over the Cascade Mountains in late June of 1947. The word "flying saucer" was actually used in the 1860's by a Mr. Martin upon seeing this strange airborn object. However, it was Arnold's sighting as he described the objects that looked like saucers skipping across a pond. It was a news journalist that tagged the maxim "flying saucer" that has stuck to this day.
A UFO could be of any number of things. It means just that, unidentified. The proper litmus test for a UFO came from Dr. J. Allen Hynek who was an astronomer and scientific consultant to Project Sign, Grudge and Bluebook between the years 1948-1969. Hynek's system is still referenced today and the scientific community lauded his book "The UFO Experience" as being the most well grounded guide to understanding and deciphering this phenomona. In short, Hynek had two methods to ascertain the reliability and credibility of a sighting. One, just as I said above was the credibility of the sighting. This definition would be how many people saw it, what are their backgrounds (cops, astronomers, pilots...etc) what are the circumstances surrounding the sighting, basically witness testimony. The other and the most essential to describing and disseminating an unconventional sighting would be the "strangeness factor." Examples; How did the object move (Up & Down, Back & Forth, Blink on or Blink Out, leave residual traces, interfere with electrical components, radar confirmation, ground confirmation, satellite confirmation...etc. The Strangeness factor is what gives meaning to whether the UFO is within the purview of our terrestrial technology.
Your point on whether UFO's are time travellers is well taken. Colonel Phillip Corso Sr. who wrote the book "The Day After Roswell" believed in this possibility. The ship[s] found at the Roswell crash exhibited characteristics of Interdimmensional travel. This would best explain that time, space and gravity would not confine an advanced ET species to linear space travel. As far as changing the past, as I understand it, the variable that it will change the future, is not a linear prospect.
I'll give you an example; You go back in time and kill your mother. Do you cease to exist? No. You only created a parallel time line without you existing. Once you're here, you're here. That cannot be changed. Get Corso's two books an I hope it will help you some.

ufo's is an unidentified flying object. I've been researching this kind of stuff.My theory is ,yes there is other lifeforms out there i know for sure but my resources cant be released. They are like time travelers they have a portal where holy grave is. They are lifeforms that are looking at there universe. They created the universe in a lab. You need a 100-thousandth of a gram of matter in order to create a new universe. we havent made a universe because if we made one it would expand into our universe and kill everyone. they created the universe by taking a blackhole type portal where there was absolutly nothing in it and threw the hundred-thousandth of a gram of matter in it.some think can survive a blackhole such as firlee's. They are lifeforms not from this galaxy.as you go one to a new and better place after you die you get new tecnologies. most ufo's were spotted around ancient monuments. It was impossible to create a perfect pyramid and have hundred ton boulders carried to the top. They basically had a gift that god had given humans to spped up tecnology. eventually we wwill get finding a way to create a portal, although i can make one(please keep away from fbi).The reason why they are here, just like us we wanna find and explore new lifeform.I was given flexable metal from a firlee but it's not 100% safe yet because there is a different type of gravity that we havent discovered yet that they live in.just to let you know ahead of time, they are exploring our tecnology and nuclear and war weapons and bombs to take over us.again KEEP AWAY FROM FBI, GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS,ECT.!!!!!!!!!!!

All I can say is that if there were an alien race that has made contact with us, the best way to learn more about our race is to mingle within it. I don't know whether or not time travel is possible but I also don't know what's in a black hole so the universe still holds a lot of unknowns for us. BTW, unidentified can also mean human spacecraft. The B-2 bomber was often flagged as a UFO before it became public.

UFO stands for unidentified flying object. Also they have found alien life and a UFO they brought it into area 51 which is a military camp where they are examining the bodies of the aliens and their ships. Everything was top secret until one of the scientist came out and told the world about what they found.

You observed a variety of of planes. gentle performs humorous tricks with the eyes each now and then, or somewhat the eyes and ideas play humorous tricks with gentle. the placement to call is your nearest ATC ( air site visitors controller) workplace. They get particularly some calls approximately astounding reflections from planes that don't appear as if planes and in a hectic airport it does not help in any respect getting yet yet another one. In a low-site visitors provincial airport you may get 2 minutes of chat by using fact it breaks the day up somewhat and leaves room for fairly amusement and once you're fairly fortunate and get a chatty controller he could inform you the way extreme it became into and how rapidly it became into flying by using fact it is all on his radar demonstrate. there are circumstances whilst it could help to get a seen record of something that's no longer pointed out on the demonstrate, and airline pilots each now and then call in with smart information approximately issues they have seen up there yet for all the effectual calls there are dozens of others. it is basically area of existence for the ATCs. there became into an astounding one in Norway final week. I observed a motor vehicle on the water guiding a huge passenger ferry by using between the fjords. It became into probable a Fjord Escort.

UFO stands for UNIDENTIFIED Flying Object. It does not stand, and has never stood, for Extraterrestrial Space Vehicle.
