A scene from movie "Men in Black" |
Will aliens
endanger Earth like in movies? One alien hunter says not likely.
Extraterrestrial
intelligence that is evolved enough to reach Earth probably will not want to
enslave or attack humans, according to renowned astronomer Jill Tarter.
Tarter,
outgoing director of Center for SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence)
Institute, said such alien species would have technology so advanced that they
would not need slaves, food, or other planets, Space.com reported Friday.
Tarter said
she disagree with famous British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking who said in
2010 that extraterrestrial life is likely to be predatory and could try to
exploit Earth’s resources.
“If aliens
were to come here, it would be simply to explore. Considering the age of the
universe, we probably wouldn’t be their first extraterrestrial encounter,
either.”
