To be frank any alien dumb enough to make contact with us right now probably deserves whatever they get as a result.yeah I eat rear end posted:If you ever experienced the bureaucracy involved with doing science while working for the government, you'd be a little more forgiving of how slow it is. Criticize the government, not the scientists. They want to find out all the cool stuff just as much as you do. Edgar Mitchell posted:“You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch.”

A lot of us might die but I have some weird optimism (I guess) that we are kind of like cockroaches in that some of us will probably survive somehow and then repopulate. Hopefully enough survive such that our gene pool isn't doomed... We already had one mass die off and as a result iirc it takes like 20k-40k humans to have a viable population that won't be plagued with genetic diseases. It'd have to be a pretty major cataclysm to wipe out ALL humans.

yeah I eat rear end posted:Honestly I don't know why we aren't spending our trillions of dollars on space weapons. No country could fight it once we had it in place and whatever space weapon we could build is surely better than the F35. If we control space we control the world. There's treaties preventing this.
