aril, theories about wormholes and "ways around" lightspeed are essentially long winded ways of saying "well jeepers guys dont you think it would be cool if we could snap our fingers and...", the basis is loosely related to physics and even the worlds most brilliant scientists estimate that only 10 or so people on the planet can even begin to fathom the actual mathematics behind it... so you could say that my faith in humanity (not scientists) to not destroy the world before we can ever contact an extra terrestrial is about equal to your faith in god

kadooganglia, if extra terrestrials left 70 years ago, which is a rough estimation as to how close the nearest life supporting star system is to us, by no means the average, but even if it was 100000 years away by our current understanding of interstellar travel, Im referring to the fact that in order for them to maintain any kind of contact with us in the past x amount of years they would have to have separate expeditions all oriented on earths galactic position in an intermediate period, all presumably manned if you buy into the whole roswell nonsense,

where the light speed thing comes in moreso than for travel is the fact that if extra terrestrials are x many light years away they are seeing an image of earth from that long ago, so being that civilization on earth has existed for maybe 10000 years, on a significant scale for 5000 years, and with extrapersonal communication for 100 years, methinks that interest in our speck of dust like existence in this universe that we know so little about would probably be minimal...

...unless a giant slug like smuggler and arms dealer decides he wants to come to earth and enslave humanity to sell on the interstellar black market...
