I was listening to a fun podcast episode about a couple of folks who founded a UFO-related political third party: https://www.buzzsprout.com/760511/11204787-gabriel-green-the-campaign-from-alpha-centauri https://www.buzzsprout.com/760511/11204787-gabriel-green-the... And it mentioned there was a flying saucer craze in 1947- Roswell wasn't even the most interesting story then. It made me think, these myths and legends are highly historically and culturally contextual. Alien UFOs replaced phantom airships replaced fairies and so forth. Perhaps in just a century, the idea of anthropomorphic aliens will be as dated and quaint as changelings are to us now. Wonder what will be the future myth then? Simulation glitches?
