      @575speed24 – I would definitely be shocked but not surprised. Very specific conditions are required for life (as we understand it) to grow but the universe is bigger than what we can imagine so there should be other intelligent life out there!

      I would want to try and test their knowledge by giving them a quiz about humans… I’m sure there is intelligent life out there…

      Hi @575speed24. Great question! I think we should team up with them and explore the unknown universe together!

      I’d be terrified!

      First I would check all the data-confirmation bias issue.
      (google what confirmation bias phenomenon is)

      Its easy to find something if looking for it in data-ie easy to massage data to show message you want it to show(this is what statisticians do the for government propaganda machine…)
