According to a new research based on aliens ,Humans are going to be terrified when they come face to face with extraterrestrials(ET).It will be absolute pandemonium.
From Independence day and Aliens ,the movies that are based on ET,The humans doesn't take well to meeting the newly discovered alien neighbours who to be fair are usually threatening the widespread elimination of humans in some way.
Talking to a average person ,you might get a different picture of what a reaction to first contact might look like.Some people aren't so alarmed about it. Infact they are pretty optimistic about what meeting aliens might mean .Most of us are like the kid in ET,rather than the terrified adults.Study suggests that rioting & looting would be kept to a minimum.
Michael varnum,assistant professor of psychology at Arizona State University,took several different approaches in his study,for the first part he and his team used a computer program to analyze the language used in news articles about discoveries that indicated the possibility of alien life .
If scientists have their way,the question of whether ET exist won't be hypothetical for long -increasingly sophisticated technology will help us detect aliens ,if infact they are out there.Playing out possible scenarios and getting a sense for how humanity would react to such a discovery could help govts come up with better informed policies,when and if it arises.
