06. We have all heard about area 51. Are we safe from alien attacks going into space as groups? Should we wear protective outfits just in case? Would they have weapons and should we take laser guns? (A K2S Question)

When we venture into the deep stretches of outer space we should be prepared for the worst. That doesn't mean we should be armed with the latest weapons. No—we should be prepared to encounter aliens and try to talk to them. Language translators would probably be our best weapons. They would enable us to communicate. But if communicating failed we would need to protect ourselves and, more importantly, keep the location of our home world a secret. In these cases, some sort of weapons and defensive measures would need to be available. Lasers, missiles and a defensive magnetic shield may be beneficial.
