The trick to that statement being that we don't know where the baseline is...at .00001% likeliness this year, an exponential increase of 1.0001x every year isn't particularly likely.

Aliens arriving, being discovered, or merely communicating with us, there are so many possibilities, many of them with the potential for being as disruptive to human civilization on Earth as an asteroid impact. The mind boggles at the possibilities.
