Yeah but you're still interpreting it as someone from 2011 though. Why would the artist paint people inside flying machines? Flying machines were not exactly a widespread idea until very recently, so what purpose would that serve to paint it, especially in a church? It's like the ancient aliens guy seeing a flower carving in an Egyptian tomb and interpreting it as a lightbulb.

Well I'd say you're interpreting it as if it's impossible that people long ago saw aliens or flying craft. You're jumping to a conclusion and basing your interpretation on that.
I'm not saying yes and I'm not saying no. I'm more interested in the Nazca lines than this art. I do know I do not say "aliens do not exist, therefore all this stuff must mean something else". We don't know what it means. We can't say what the creators meant. Nuremburg 1561, can we just dismiss it as mass poisoning or something? Reports from our astronauts and airline pilots, can we dismiss them as hallucinations? I'm not talking Roswell conspiracies, I'm talking reports of unidentified craft, some of which might be military but are all of them military?
I keep an open mind about it. Some stuff is too weird, like the Nazca lines. Other stuff can be explained, like military aircraft or just hoaxes.
