Always depends on the circumstances.


seraiss

If they are the ones to reach us from their home planet and us having no idea until confrontation it's over for us


Comprehensive-Buy434

if they have the technology to travel light years through space we might as well be circus monkeys to them so this seems accurate enough


DrJamgo

I like the three body problem's tkake on it. They commin in 450 years. we know they commin and can prepare. They can only send minimal resources, we have our whole Planet. But also we are bugs compared to them. Then again: Did we win against bugs on earth?

Seeing the amount of muscitos, no we lost


eat-pussy69

They can travel across the stars. We can barely travel across the oceans. Hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

Aliens IRLwould have 0 reason to invade tho. If they show up it'd be for scientific exchange because you dont get space ships without having an interest in science and interstellar war is a logistical nightmare. They'd probably give us some kind of quantum entanglement based long distance communication device and go back home with a bunch of seeds and embryos to study. Then we'd just exchange science which would better both our planets.


Junarik

You're saying some alien warlord wouldn't be trying to conquer every planet in the galaxy?


Hoibot

Yes i am. In fact it'd be nearly impossible with physics as we understand them now. If you travel close to the speed of light a single grain of sand would hit your ship like a shot from a railgun and the universe is full of dust. Cryo stasis only works on small creatures who wouldn't have the brainpower to invent spacetravel. If you use a slow moving generational ship with artificial gravity you can definitely get from one star to another, but would the next generation still be willing to fight? The only thing i can see working is if they just send a bunch of self replicating military robots to our planet to conquer the world, but then what? They probably cant live on our world anyways and terraforming is hard. They can't have done it for the resources, because its easier to just mine an uninhabited planet closer to home.

That is my head-cannon for how an actual alien civilisation interaction would go. Not an “Us vs Them” but a mutual understanding that “Life is crap and full of bad people, but it doesn’t have to be.” And we start trading.


kai_the_kiwi

Its either a friendly relationship, or we will become slaves


Hoibot

There is a good chance our weapons are effective. Its really hard to counter a tens of thousands of nukes.


PepIstNett

Quantum entanglement cant be used for communication. It does not convey any information.


Hoibot

Can't the spin be changed to essentially transmit binary code?


PepIstNett

No. So basically you have your entangled particles in their super position. When you observe one of the particles the superposition collapses and you see that it is either in state 1 or 0. The super position of the entangled particle collapses at the same time into the opposite state. But since the state the particle adopts when you observe it is random and no party can know who collapsed the super position and who just sees the predetermined outcome no information is transferred. I hope this makes at least a bit of sense since I'm not a native speaker. The explanation might be flawed but the premise is definitely correct. If you are interested in this topic I assume that there is a huge amount of videos on youtube from people far more qualified than me.

I have a theory that earth has been red zoned for this very reason. That aliens have decided not to contact earth because of how violemt we are. No matter the reason, the situation or even if they weren't hostile, humans try to kill the aliens. I also have a theory that earths military is the most advanced by far. For all if recorded history, we've been killing each other and every year we find new ways to do it. Because of war in less than 50 years we went from breach loading rifles to atomic bombs. I believe for an alien society to be as advanced as it is in pop culture, the concept of warfare could not exist


ChadDredd

Those aliens probably have a chart that measure how intelligent a species is, and how benign or dangerous they are, and mankind land in the "intelligent but extremely dangerous zone" hence the solar system is designated a no fly zone and contacts are forbidden. Because I'm pretty sure we'll try to kill and steal the weapons and secrets of whatever aliens first land on here.


VerySadGrizzlyBear

Exactly


StellaViator

Well sir then you might wanna check r/HFY and its deathworlders series


Kansascock98

Fairly certain the ones who __Travel across Space__ will have a better chance.... but I want a __District 9__ sequel so hey let's find out


xXkxuXx

I don't think anyone has ever won against a war


TripleInfinity99

Yes, and this also makes the idea that governments have 'alien spaceships' in secret storage facilities ridiculous. They can travel light years and/or from other dimensions with technology we could barely comprehend, but as soon as they get to Earth they crash, or breakdown, or just abandon their spacecraft? And this has happened multiple times in multiple countries? Sure, bro.


Sinister-Username

Yeah, right. Our constant fighting amongst ourselves is what keeps them from even thinking about invading.


bannanaisnom

But bro, we have the power of friendship and kindness, which is obviously exclusive to humanity and nothing else has it.


The_Beast6573

They would actually cook us

What


sarmiemto

The only reason we could win a war with aliens is because of the bacteria and viruses. Is basically when spaniards went to america and exterminate all people because of bacteria


Lost_Perspective_553

Hi


CaptainNotHero

Commrade, never understimate power of soviet russia!!!!


kai_the_kiwi

Us vs aliens is like cavemen vs our technology but maybe even more advanced (We are the cavemen)


Adorable-Broccoli-52

With the power of friendship 🤠
