According to CNET, on the subject of aliens, Hawking is far from optimistic. Says Mr. Hawking: “If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out very well for the Native Americans.” So, in geek speak, that’s a little more Independence Day and a lot less Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
While he’s not alone in his considerations of less than friendly life in space, Hawking was reluctant to share his opinions of time travel, worried he might be labeled a heretic. Hawking believes that high-speed flight will absolutely be possible, with spaceships zooming around so quickly we’ll be able to skip generations in the bat of an eye. While this opinion is far from accepted in scientific circles, it’s exciting to hear regardless. Who knows? While we certainly won’t be around to see such advances, it’s still a thrilling possibility.
Let’s steer clear of those vicious aliens.
