Aliens are very likely to be out there, according to eminent scientist Stephen Hawking – but we should keep quiet and hope they don’t notice us. The theoretical physicist says aliens may look to conquer and colonize. In a new documentary for the Discovery Channel, Hawking claims such space life would only abuse Earth’s resources and move on. “We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn’t want to meet,” he said. “I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet.” He says if aliens visit us, the outcome would be similar to when Columbus landed in America, “which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans.” The documentary, “Into the Universe,” took three years to complete and was spearheaded by Hawking, who suffers from neuro-muscular dystrophy.
