      Probably not. Just being capable of interstellar spaceflight opens up some really nice ways to kill a lot of people, such as redirecting asteroids. Or just drop nuclear bombs from orbit. Nothing we could do. Also, what if the aliens show up with more soldiers than we have people?

        i mean we could totally do that, if you gave space programs a few trillion (which is the level of funding an alien invasion would cause) we could probably move asteroids within a decade

        and we already can move asteroids, just not much

      Can confirm. I played thousands of hours of Destiny, Call of Duty, and Halo. I think my KD is like 3.5 with bots, but 0.22 with humans. So aliens, probably in the middle.

      Guys I’m ready to be a hero.
