Russian military: 'Space troops not yet ready to fight aliens’

In a surprising move, an apparently serious journalist raised this question of extraterrestrial security during a media conference at the Titov Main Test and Space Systems Control Center near Moscow, Russia’s main satellite control center.

“So far we are not capable of that. We are unfortunately not ready to fight extraterrestrial civilizations,” the center’s deputy chief Sergey Berezhnoy explained.

“Our center was not tasked with it. There are too many problems on Earth and near it,” he added.

Well I could have told you that. I mean if they travel hundreds of light years here they are probably a bit more intelligent than we are, and we shouldn't try and fight them. The only thing we have going for us is the home field advantage.
