What will ETs be like?

[Jeff Scott]

- What are they like? IMO, they're twisted ass freaks, with a sick sense of humor and Waay too much free time on their hands...

So, that means that most TB members are aliens.

E.T.’s be like...


All I can say is, I hope they come back to teach us lost knowledge, forgotten wisdom of ancient times...


After all, they should already know "Johnny B. Goode".

Just the ones from Hungary.

Around 1000 AD, a spaceship crashed in Hungary and some crew members survived. Realizing that a rescue was unlikely, they decided to masquerade as locals until a rescue ship arrived. It was a successful plan but a rescue ship never arrived. The aliens/Hungarians can be identified today by certain characteristics.

1) A very foreign language, totally dissimilar to the rest of Europe.
2) Exceptionally high IQ and a penchant for mathematics
3) The desire to travel.

Were they healthy, I mean, well Hungarians?

This.


This is what ET's will look like. And all I can say is that you guys asked for it........

Consider physics. As I understand Einstein's work on this, Unless they can travel through wormholes, defeating the time bending aspect of traveling lightyears at warp, there is no practicality to being here. Like, by the time they get here, and report back home, years, or centuries or even millennia will have passed back home: time passes normally at home where a century at home is like a day when you travel at warp.

So information will be many years past what the intention was in coming here. It doesn’t add up that a civilization would send out explorers so far that time becomes an issue. By the time information gets home, home may have forgotten you were even out there at all.

I don’t buy it. You’d have to have full control of time - space. So that demands wormhole travel. It may be a thing, but I’m unconvinced that they could manipulate wormholes to appear where needed to enter and control where they terminate for exit at destination.

Ps. They are Tribbles. Sorry @Gorn.

This seems to be based on the idea that there's a need to return home or send info there. Suppose there isn't?

With no need to phone home they would be colonists or exiles.

What is their favorite music? - Their favorite music is Holst's The Planets, and Midnight Oil's Earth and Sun and Moon.

Hope this helps.

I would think Hawkwind and Barrett-era Floyd. Oh, and Sun Ra.

Don’t forget, “It’s a cookbook!”.

I can't directly address the OP's question, would be a TB rule violation. Suffice to say John Carpenter's 1980s movie "They Live" seems more relevant than ever.

Invalid Link Removed

A drifter discovers a pair of sunglasses that allow him to wake up to the fact that aliens have taken over the Earth.

One of my bands released a video in 2011 with clips of that movie in the background. It's a politically charged video and probably something I shouldn't post here.

PM me if you'd like a link to said video.

At first, we'll think they look like us, but they won't. They'll just be afraid of terrifying us with their unfathomable countenances. However, as we get to know them better for their qualities, all will be revealed in due time.

I’m brave enough to take a peek

 

[Jeff Scott]

I knew a Martian, back in the mid 1980s.

As to what Aliens are really like, I found this documentary.........

I have to respectfully decline because I may not react well to a suchly-charged video. I’d love to share some recent images inspired by the movie but it would get me in big trouble.

Here we can see a regular member of Talkbass (on the left) making first contact

Aliens aren't visiting Earth.

They may very well be here, and could have been for a long time. Most people are expecting aliens to appear humanoid, with two eyes, one nose, one mouth, etc, and walk upright on two legs.

They may be anything but...instead could be a non-carbon life form that slithers along or crawls on however many appendages it may have. It could be invisible in the spectrum of light that humans can see. It may or not need to breathe. Perhaps some ETs are living at the bottom of our oceans and have been doing so for millennia.

Or not.

Excellent points
