Humans are unprepared for an alien invasion.
Humans are not equipped to cope with an alien invasion
Philip Mantle, former Director of Investigations for the British UFO Research Association, claims that governments across the world are not doing enough to protect people from the threat of extraterrestrials and pointed to the response in the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic as evidence of humanity's lack of preparation for a crisis.
He told the Daily Star newspaper: "There is no question that world leaders would be unprepared for an alien attack. We only have to look at how unprepared we were for the coronavirus pandemic let alone anything else."
Mantle is hopeful that aliens will come in peace if they do make it to Earth as they would have ventured a long way across the universe to do so.
He said: "Let us hope that if or when we have a large-scale alien contact that they come in peace. Just think, why would you travel for light years to reach us only then to try and obliterate us?"
