Ufology: From Fringe Field to Serious Science
Consider the progress in weapons technology made by mankind over the last 200 years.

Alien civilizations could easily be thousands, or even millions, of years more advanced than mankind, with weapons that might seem miraculous to us. The unfortunate truth is Earth is likely ripe for the taking by any alien race technologically advanced enough to travel here.
