I think this doesn't translate so directly into space. If they are thousands of light years away, then they will have plenty of other planets nearby to harvest for resources.
- de_watcher 8y agoEspecially while the planets aren't the first place you go to harvest resources.
- celticninja 8y agoIt all depends on what sort of resources they are looking for, no one is crossing light years to come steal water from us, when there are other planets that have water (perhaps as ice) and would be undefended. However if they needed territory and the earth had an environment that was hospitable to them then yes they might very well travel light years to invade.

- NeedMoreTea 8y agoPerhaps they are trying to attract contact from less advanced species to find planets supporting life, so they can have more meat in their diet... Resources are not solely iron ore etc.
