This would be easy to understand. LOL!

Quote from the article:
"But Professor Stephen Hawking has warned that alien interlopers should be treated with caution.

He said: 'I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. The outcome for us would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out very well for the Native Americans.'"

or they could be here now... flying around in nano sized vehicles smaller than a grain of sugar. no one would even know they were here, as no one is really searching on that small of scale. if you are going to hunt ufo's and space aliens, please do not prejudice your search just because hollywood makes alien movies like 'independence day', etc.

So, if you don't want us to prejudice our search, how would YOU search for nano-sized aliens? How would YOU do it?

it was just a comment on the lack of perspective regarding this alien 'hunt'. as our technology advances, we use more and more nano tech, wouldn't they? how would i do it? i wouldn't. i wouldn't waste my time...
