Since the late 19th century, the concept of an "alien invasion" has been a recurring theme in literature, and also served as a kind of cultural pressure gauge—it reveals our fears about what might be lurking in the cosmos, as well as the everyday horrors of the human condition, forcing us to confront questions about our vulnerabilities, and our assumptions about intelligent life elsewhere in the universe.
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we lead off with a bit of discussion about the persistent rumors about the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, and whether its presence could actually bring the discussion about alien visitation out of fiction and into reality. Then, we shift our attention to the discussion about what a real alien invasion might entail, and what it could mean for life on Earth if it were ever to occur; would humanity be up to the task of defending against a cosmic threat from beyond the stars?
