Originally the satellite of Jupiter you call Europa. A meeting is impossible given that we shed our physical form thousands of your years ago.

It’d be like us bothering to assimilate and bring science to meerkats

Why would aliens do that?

They treat civilizations like individuals. If you (the planetary society) are not self sufficient, ‘an adult’, then why should aliens handhold you? You’re not ready for society. It’s the same down here, on the lone individual case. Children.

Anything we’re given or introduced to could become a major, major crutch, and aliens don’t want to have to be looked to constantly for help. They’d become a religion. What happens when the aliens have their own home issues to deal with and suddenly fuck off?

It’s like catering/smothering a child to the point where they don’t, or ever, grow up.

Any sincere aid they send our way, they won’t let it be known.

We have no idea how an ayy lmao intelligence would reason, or what its goals when traveling or reaching out through the universe would be.
There could be plenty of reasons why they would show up or make their presence apparent to us, other than
>You are finally on my level and ready to join the club

the very first they get a chance to humans would blame aliens for any deaths their simple existence might cause among humans, and ask something in return for it. there's no way to approach humans without being sorry for it.

What are the axioms of reason that the aliens could differ on? They may have more-or-less advanced understanding, but the provables should be identical. They could have different values and a min/maxxing strategy, sure.
I guess there is some history of schizo humans and so maybe their reasoning is like a collective bargaining. Like some octopus species that has multiple independent thought centers in a body, but this doesn't supplant singular thinking either, It just pushes it another layer down.

Why would you think they would be above us morally and mentally and also follow the prime directive? Just because some ayy dudes made FTL doesn't mean their whole species are a bunch of quantum brain niggas. The US president isn't some buddha nigga because dudes made the internet. Hell, fast travel could just as easily make them into short sighted turbo zoomers who act quickly and aren't terribly concerned with the long term consequences of their travels.

Again, humanity never followed the prime directive and in fact did the opposite at every opportunity. Belligerently exploring and forcing contact at great cost to the state. Why would ayylmaos be any different?

They'd want to explore. They'd want to intrude. You don't manipulate your environment to that extent to just be a casual observer.

Right, absolutely. FTL is likely not possible obviously and that's the possible reason for lack of contact with ayylmaos to date. But I assume the assignment is to imagine "what if" they developed that technology and were thus able to make contact with humanity or other ayy planets. I chose to base my idea on what we observe with humanity - differing professions, intelligence levels, etc meaning that just because some great scientists make technology doesn't mean the rest of humanity will make the most prudent decisions with it. Truman had no idea how the nuclear bomb worked when he launched them on Japan. Greater technology has never led to civilization wide wisdom. Christopher Columbus' benefactors weren't knowledgeable enough to invent a boat capable of intercontinental travel to unknown lands and yet they are the decision makers and funders of his expeditions. Columbus and his men didn't have the knowledge either and yet were the ones chosen for the journeys.

>Where are all the Aliens !?

Probably Venus.
>Phosphine Gas has been detected in the atmosphere. Phosphine is mostly produced by decaying organic vegetation in a low-oxygen environment. Otherwise extremely rare in nature.
>Some ?black? shadow is floating in the sky absorbing UV light.
>Middle-to-upper atmosphere is actually nice, like 25 Celsius.
>Atmosphere is also thick enough to bestow buoyancy.
>Small regular amounts of oxygen have been detected in the atmosphere.

But then by 'Aliens' I mean airborne algae, plankton, maybe some kind of sky kelp, or sky worms and floating bumpy sky corals. It could be a real jungle down there. Granted, I don't expect us to see any Ayy-People for a long time. I very much expect the rut to be that people are basically impossible-to-improbable, but plants and animals are deceptively abundant.

My other top picks are:
-Subterranean Mars.
-Europa or Titan- whichever turns out to have geothermal activity and an ocean underneath the ice. I can't remember which- or maybe they'll both have it.
I really wouldn't be too surprised if our system is actually quite flush with little critters here and there.

I'll also mention, not that anybody asked, but before I die I'd like closer on two Alien related subjects:
-I wanna know if all life stems from a singular common ancestor vs every planet goes through a completely unique genesis.
-I wanna eat an Alien. I'd be satisfied even if it was just a vegetable, but I wanna eat an Alien.

>absolutely no water at all in the atmosphere, fucking zero
Yes, you could build a cloud city exploiting the fact that breathing air floats in the CO2 atmosphere, and you could even send down drones to haul up minerals for processing.
But you'd have to obtain your water by harvesting the sulphuric acid clouds and processing them. Doable but not comfy.

Unironically didn't know that. I was under the misinformed impression that Venus was quite moist in certain layers, but sure enough Google & NASA are both telling me this planet is fucking bone dry. Jupiter has more water in its' atmosphere- very neat, but also what the fuck.

I must be getting mixed up with 'The Sky People' novels and the Victorian era theory that Venus was a Jungle-Dinosaur planet. It should be, because that would be fucking COOL, but it isn't.

Intelligent cephalopods likely exist in the oceans of Europa and Enceladus but since they can't use fire or work metal they have no way of breaking through the surface ice crust or building spaceships to visit Earth.

Yes the ice shell moons are some of the best candidates for searching for "some kind of life" in our solar system, but what makes you confident that they are that particular phylum and class of life?
