light speed makes it impossible to observe aliens. god did this is intentionally, like fog of war in AOE.

It would take 749,000,000 years to travel to the nearest galaxy which is the Canis Major Dwarf at voyager speed (38,210 mph) and it'd take 25,000 light years to get there if we were to travel there in the fastest way possible. Sorry to brake it to you bud, but aliens aren't coming here nor is it possible even if their civilization is 1000 years ahead of ours or even 10,000. They'd have to be a type 3 civilization and beyond and we're only .75 of type 1. It'd take 3200 more years to be a type 2 civilization. Whats more believable is aliens live among us and have been since the dawn of time but don't interrupt human life by living far underground or in the the depths of the oceans. Maybe there's an alien base on the moon and that's the reason NASA hasn't been there in so long.

Learn what a "light year" is anon.

The nearest aliens are in the Andromeda galaxy. If we send them a radio message it will take 2.5 million years for it to reach them and another 2.5 million years for them to reply. During that time their civilization and ours will likely have gone extinct.

>Canis Major Dwarf
Proxima Centauri is 4.2 light-years from Earth, a distance that would take about 6,300 years to travel using current technology. Such a trip would take many generations. Indeed, most of the humans involved would never see Earth or its exoplanet counterpart. I meant solar system not galaxy woops.
