Default Re: OT:Why Aliens dont come here

Heh are you freakin kidding if we had a rock oxygen world in this system aside from Earth Morality would go right out the window when people realize the raw materials you can get from a whole new untouched world.

Mining Companies would probobly send up teams immedietly

Some "religious nuts" might see it as a new Eden or something and go there to get away from the rest of humanity.

Scientists would surely go (probobly first)

The military would DEFINATELY GO as a whole new world may not be given up without a fight by some countries (I can think of a few that would probobly start a war over it but I won't list them)

And not to mention countries like China and India who's populations double every fifty years (You'd think they never heard of birth control) would probobly be the first to send up people in their thousands (or even millions) as they are desperate for any real estate they can get their hands on.
