5 Things That Will Happen When Aliens Arrive

Stephen Hawking has been quoted as saying that it is perfectly
rational to assume intelligent life exists somewhere in the universe.

But while the discovery of life on another world may sound exciting, Hawking also believes that if a race of beings were sufficiently advanced enough to reach us, they would pose a huge threat to everyone and everything here on Earth.

How will our first interactions with a visiting alien civilization take place? Observation would likely be followed by covert visitation by the aliens in order to judge our abilities and technological level even further. If man were to meet an alien race tomorrow, could our existing infrastructure cope? We have to assume that a sufficiently advanced civilisation is aware of the dangers of disease to both parties, so hopefully they'll have brought protection along for this intergalactic booty call. Whether or not an alien race shares our concepts of good and evil is hard to say, but that's probably how we'll judge them, so how can we be so sure they'll come to us with good intentions?

I feel like even if they came in peace at first, humans would find a way to piss them off pretty quickly.

Aliens will be mad when they see all alien movies from us....they will start asking why we always kill aliens

[techfluent]

What if aliens are waiting for us to go there
And we are waiting for them to come here

If Aliens visited us now, we'd share our dank memes to each other.

[sirgrem]

Imagine, one human and one alien met.
"That's an alien!"
"No, you are the alien! We're not aliens!"
"You're an alien! You're different!"
"So are you!"

[plymouthmopar]

[Defaultlol]

[mauricioa]

[garrettyoung]

What if in a far distant planet, there are humans wondering the same thing.

[jaylene]

I just hope they're NOT looking for a new food source.

It's also possible that, if Aliens are out there, they don't know that we exist. This could be the case if they're too far away, such as in another Galaxy, due to Time Dilation. Even if they're able to observe earth, they could still think that Earth is full of dinosaurs.

They'll love us. We've got dank memes
