But why would they choose to spend their time wandering around in a spaceship anyways?
Even if they had instant travel making distance and time absolutely meaningless. If life is so plentiful and there’s so many that are that advanced, exponentially more at our level, and innumerable planets supporting more basic forms of life…
Why would they care about us?
We’re one in trillions to them.
