like not aliens from blindside or a bunch of little gray bitches in saucers

not even humanoids in generation ships or even aliens with language

like just some dumb as gently caress non-sentient herd of beasts who can live in the vacuum and happened to enter the solar system. this is of course assuming they can live a long time

it would be pretty funny though if aliens invaded and they were some real dumb motherfuckers instead of smart aliens like we expect
no but you raise a good point

im working tomorrow so ill be able to answer and expand on my ideas tomorrow

i think if aliens were here then they would have the power an ability to modify our surroundings to leave no trace except what they wanted behind

I'm guessing aliens invented holo decks so never evolved much beyond where we are now as a consequence. So doubtful they'd be traveling anywhere.

the vast distances involved in space and time essentially make conventional travel impossible

sci-fi mostly uses some kind of hyper drive and the power requirements are literally astronomical. someone crunched the numbers and it would require like the mass of jupiter in energy to travel and respectable distance.

but what if the next level of exploration was achieved simply "moving" our consciousness. people who have taken DMT say that they have seen "machine gremlins" during their trips.

perhaps these are aliens trying to communicate with humans.

It seems this thread is talking about sentient aliens now. Okay.

Supposedly they can bend the fabric of time and space and traverse huge distances almost instantly. But moving one's consciousness by means of astral projection is absolutely a valid idea. I can do it, and I've observed them a couple of times.

machine elves, not gremlins

but yeah i want to meet those folk

*smokes another jay*

but i do think we don't know everything, so it is also possible that there are other ingenious ways of propulsion and travel that we don't even know about yet

The first time I saw them, there were 4 of them sitting in chairs, apparently operating their vehicle by becoming a part of it. They controlled it's movements by their thoughts alone. I know that sounds weird, but I don't pretend to understand all of what I saw.

Another time I observed them, they were aware of my presence and one of them was very angry to have an eavesdropper there. The images I saw ended abruptly at that point, so I assumed they "evicted" me.

There was one other time, but it was too complicated to explain here.

I wish I understood it better, but learning comes slowly and I really ought to try harder to develop it.

I could totally see simple life forms like bacteria blowing around in space stuck to a comet or whatever until they land somewhere they can live, some theories say life on earth may have come from such an event.

Another real possibility is we are the only living beings, here on earth- life had to happen somewhere first, why not here? In which case we have a responsibility to go teriform anywhere we can.

Like, algea turns carbon dioxide into oxygen, so any planet with water and volcanic activity should get a big dookie rocket (for fertilizer) and a whole bunch of dhyddated algae clumps dropped on it. Life could take off there, like space Australia
