Many individuals think that aliens routinely come to Earth. In recent years, there has been a steady rise in the number of persons reporting sightings of UFOs and those who believe in Unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
Whatever your beliefs, there is one critical issue: What would happen if and when mankind made contact with extraterrestrial beings?
At the University of St. Andrews, a brand-new global research center has been created to address this issue. Researchers from all across the world will collaborate to determine how society should react in such a situation.
The Center for Exoplanet Science and the Centre for Global Law and Governance of the organization are the hosts of the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Post-Detection Hub. It will provide as a focal point for coordinated efforts to develop protocols, processes, and agreements. Designing a proper response to extraterrestrial encounters is their only objective.
According to a university press release, science fiction is replete with scenarios where humans interact with extraterrestrial intelligence. Dr. John Elliott, an honorary research fellow at the University of St. Andrews’ School of Computer Science, claimed as much.
According to him, science fiction is “overflowing with investigations of the influence on human civilization following the discovery of, and even interactions with, life or intelligence elsewhere.”
He said that mankind must “move beyond worrying about the impact on humanity,” though.
He argued that gatherings of people were necessary to analyze the evidence for alien life and to take into account “the human social reaction.”
