Do you think they will ever invade earth. I dont think so because the only reason i could think of would be to turn us to slaves or to steal our resources. and if we were attacked we would blow the whole planet away with nukes befor we let those alien suns a bitches to take us over.
Its hard to say.
Look at us as a species...we are a destructive species that thrives on war and chaos, clinging to our own perspective and will to live. We do what we think is necessary to survive, if that means we kill our neighbors...then by god we kill our neighbor...there is no other species quite like us known...
Don't know about you guys but i doubt someone would wanna come mess with us...we would just nuke them and kill ourselves in the rpocess...They will be saying, nice job retards...we only came here to kill u to begin with...BRAVO!
Power to civilization!
Seriously.. Cmon now.
The time to get here would be about 100.000 years at best. Even if they could survive the trip, would be very coincidental if they arrived at the exact time our civilization rose and hadn't collapsed yet.
Take them down with us
-_-
What I mean is.. that our civilization has only been around for about 10.000 years(at most)
So they would have to have precognition to know sentient life would be here.
Besides, if it was us, would you care to go that far?
Techniclly weve only been detectable since 1901 when the first long range radio signals were sent accross the world.Originally Posted by Aerith's Knight
It is extremly highly likly that we havent been around long enough or looking for others long enough i argee with that
I don't think they'd invade us. They come in peaaaas
That's not what I'm trying to explain here.Techniclly weve only been detectable since 1901 when the first long range radio signals were sent accross the world.

The distances in space are.. too large to be able to envision. Let's say for example a civilization, which is advanced and capable, takes the 200.000 year trip at 0.3 the speed of light(as to counter relativistic effects) to earth. If human kind only had the potential to actually speak with them for 10.000 years, what chance do you think those aliens would have to arrive in that period?
If the trip takes 20 times the duration of our civilization, they'd have to be really lucky in picking out the departure time.
Any extraterrestrial civilization that has evolved to the point where it can travel the distances in Space fast enough to reach Earth before we're all already dead and gone will have evolved past the point of warmongering.

I think that a specices advanced enough to even attemt a voage that far would have at the least developed the ability to travel at near light speeds. and that is if they havent devised a way to stabalize worm holes in wich case they could travel the span of the universe in a matter of years.
No matter what you do in this universe, if you come near light speed you will experience relativistic effects. Instead of going faster, you'd actually take longer.. I'm not going to explain that here. And even so, that would merely cut the time to 1/3, which would still be ridiculous in years.
And don't talk about things from Stargate. We don't know how wormholes work, because it's just a theory, and we don't even know if they can even exist.
Someone's been watching too much Independence Day.
Maybe the previous dominant species discussed this before humans landed on earth.
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
It wouldent take longer for the traveler. they would be moving fast but They would slow down in time. They would age 1sec to every year in real tim. It would still be possible to visit places withing 100 or so light years and still return home, especialy if there species has extreme longevity. in that case things back home wouldent change that drasticly. to someone who lives 1000 earth years 1 year wouldent be very much at all to them. and 100 years would be about like 10 years to us.
It might not be long to them, but you're forgetting that the actual time flow isn't affected. They could travel 200.000 lightyears and maybe it's only 200 years to them, but that wouldn't meant that only 200 years went by for us. It would still take 200.000 years to get here, and the propobility that any sentient life exists when they arive, let alone detectable, would be infinitely slim.It wouldent take longer for the traveler. they would be moving fast but They would slow down in time.

You can't bend the laws of time and space to your liking just because you want to entertain the possiblity of getting freaky with some green lizardwoman.
