jaylake, I find that the real question is when were they here?. Basically, Charles Magee, the blogger, generated 50 random alien visits in the 5 billion years that the solar system has been around.
On only three occasions would the hypothetical aliens have observed multi-cellular life. The rest of the time, it was just microbes if that.
The universe is a big place, and old too.
