What happens if we find intelligent life out there?

Science has recently discovered two bizarre organisms that I will suggest may have came from outer space. Thus provides evidence of possible panspermia. Tardigrades aka water bears, that can survive in outer space for periods, and slime molds, physarum polycephalum, do not fit in any Earth life phyla but do have DNA. Slime molds have some type of unique electrical waves used for intelligence that are unlike nervous systems of other Earth life. Slime molds also have strangely ancient DNA.

The incredible Cambrian explosion also provides evidence of hypothesized Directed Panspermia and as such supports my mentioned possibility that Earth is a UIE zoo.

If they were truly intelligent, they'd pull the blinds, shut off the porch light, and deadbolt their door......like Halloween in a bad neighborhood
 

I don't doubt that intelligent life exists somewhere in the universe. The number of stars in the universe is uncountable. How many trillions of stars ? Many, if not most, of the stars will have planets. Surely some of those planets must have developed life. Where life develops, intelligent life will eventually develop.
 
Thinking about what David777 said ...

One TV show said that analysis done by scientists from information received from the Mars rovers showed it was possible that Mars supported life similar to ours and that life came here. They went on to say that our sleep cycle is more akin to the length of day on Mars than on Earth, and that our body temperature tolerance is more acclimated to what the Mars equator temperature would have been. Just gives you something to think about and even if the scientists are on the right track.

Besides, if someone is out there watching, why would they want to interact with us with the way we behave towards each other. Either they are shaking their heads at us in disbelief, or looking at each other saying WTF?
 
This is one of those late-night thoughts of WHAT IF...

I loved watching The Twilight Zone as a kid & still do. Does anyone else remember a few of episodes when the aliens lived alongside everyone & no one knew it? Now I wonder who they ticked off on their planet to get that job.

I watched The Day the Earth Stood Still all the time as a kid with Dad. I thought it showed that potential visitors weren't always going to be bad. They would be telling us to grow up & clean up our act, or else. I still think that Helen & her son Bobby should have left with Klaatu.

My dad was 17 when he was in the Civilian Conservation Corp. in Oregon. Everyone in the barracks was listening to the radio the night Orson Wells did his broadcast. No one heard the intro & so they all thought it was real. He said all he could think of was how he was going to get home when he was 2,000 from it.

I have pondered this thought myself and it is definitely a possibility. Thank you for the links.
