task. First, you need to identify where life might have formed. Then, you must scour this planet and a bazillion more before you get lucky and stumble across something which looks like a microscopic organism. But what if this lifeform came with us on the ship? How do we know it got here organically? Where are all the rest of the aliens? Bah, this sounds too much like hard work. Let’s just make a bunch of aliens here on Earth instead, via the exciting new field of Xenobiology.Xenobiology is an offshoot of synthetic biology, which is a cross-disciplinary field involving both biology and engineering.If you want to understand something, you must replicate the process which created it. It’s all well and good looking to the future of xenobiology and predicting what we might discover, how we might use it, and what colour unicorn you’re going to order when science allows for their glorious return to the Earth; but what are we using this technology for now?

150 years. In the 19th Century, our efforts consisted of amusing inventions like the sky telegraph; which stood no chance of reaching someone in the next field, let alone the next galaxy. But in the modern age we have tools like the 1,000 foot Arecibo Observatory reflector dish at our disposal. We have sent a message to the cosmos that we are here, and we want to play. But should we be doing this?This video categorises the effects of alien contact into three broad categories; harmful, beneficial and neutral.There’s a good chance an advanced race will have peaceful, positive intentions for any new race they contact. One possibility most people don’t consider when evaluating the potential impact of aliens on humanity is that, after the initial excitement wears off, we might not care that much.
