6. Language and culture will forever be different and major advances in science and medicine will change how we view the world.

One think in my mind...
What if human technology far more advance than the alien? :)

Do you remember the TV miniseries V ? That's my idea of what aliens would be like. They come to Earth to harvest its human population for food.

I did not see that V you speak of, Was it aired only over in the US ? (Im a brit). sounds good though, a little bit of human harvesting - nice! lol

It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.
Ronald Reagan

What is the oldest profession ?

Anonymous86 I think that if our tech is better than the 'aliens' we would have to make contact with them first. Ultimately we would probably wipe them out (humans being humans and all) or enslave them, not that I am a pessismist or anything

It was both a miniseries, then a regualr TV series. It aired in the UK - 1984 or so!
More info here.

I don't recall ever watching the TV series, but that's probably why it wasn't on tv very long because no one else watched it either :)

[majestic0110]

I don't think so...
Let see our technology is still not enough advance i think...
Because the discovery of a new planet mean our technology can improve more.

[majestic0110]

I meant at a future date, lol, not right now - we are still young in the planet exploration stages
