If some alien planet was 1000 lightyears away, it would take those travellers 1000 years to get here traveling at the speed of light. Which would also mean, they had the ability to travel at light speed 1000 years ago, which would also mean that, at present, they would have to be way way more advanced than we will ever think of being..
but if they had the ability to travel faster than the speed of light, say twice as fast, that's only 500 yrs... and i'm sure by now they can go way faster than that... not to mention worm holes... so they could have left their place around 6 this morning and be hoovering over your house by 6pm tonight...
now, if these aliens are so smart that they can be jetsetters of the universe, why the hell would they bother with us? there's go to be more interesting stuff...

unfortunately no, totally sober, but i just caught a wiff of a pretty potent dry erase marker
