Is Stephen Hawking right about aliens?

Stephen Hawking thinks that making contact with aliens would be a very bad idea indeed. But with new, massive telescopes, we humans are stepping up the search. Have we really thought this through?

    The Wraith have not found earth yet, why invite them to dinner, and we are the main course.

    Because we want to know if we are alone, no matter the cost.

    When the first A-bomb was tested, they were worried it would light earths atmosphere on fire.

    Also who is to say Earth won't be the more advanced race during first contact?

    Uh, if they've ttravelled to our planet from somewhere else, I'm pretty sure they'll have us beat when it comes to technology.

    The computer technology required to travel the stars is... a high school professor with a chalk board.

    A standard graphic calculator we use nowadays is more advanced then the computers they used (huge rooms full of computers)to supposedly land on the moon.

    I know, but the Lunatics are invisible and we'll never find them even if we go back there. :roll:

    There's a difference between being abducted by aliens and thinking there are possibilities of advanced lifeforms in our galaxy.

    I'll say. Just thinking about advanced life forms doesn't usually involve anal probing. Well, maybe for some people it does.

    Given the enormity of the universe, the odds are in favour of other lifeforms existing out there. But they're just too far away to ever visit. Until we can travel distances much faster, we'll never get to meet them.
