When one imagines the possibility that aliens might invade or destroy the world. Most people see this as the only threat that extraterrestrial intelligences can bring to humanity.
However, the latest research to be published in the academic journal Space Policy has found that even greeting communication connects ties with friendly alien races. It could cause the world to be in turmoil and suffer disaster from the conflict in the international political arena. If the great powers fight to occupy that communication channel alone
The research report, now available in the online academic archives arXiv.org, is titled “Geopolitical Implications. The Geopolitical Implications of a Successful SETI Program was written by three scientists who are familiar with NASA and the SETI project, led by Professor Jason. T. Wright from Pennsylvania State University in the United States.
This research paper supports the assumption of the article. “The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligences: Considerations in Political Realism,” published in the same journal in 2020, both looked at. The most likely alien threat. And it will actually happen if communication signals from aliens can begin to be captured. It is the threat of political conflict that is the result of human selfish nature.
The research team looked at The power and tangible benefits of monopoly on communication with aliens will be an incentive for the superpowers to try to usurp to take possession of that communication channel solely as it may be an opportunity to access high-level knowledge and technology as well as other valuable resources from alien civilizations that are friendly and willing to share. until it may lead to a crisis in the world political arena or even a war

but nevertheless The latest study disagrees with the 2020 study that the dire circumstances in which superpowers fight for communication with the aliens is a shambles. This is the only situation that will inevitably arise.
Recent research by Prof. Wright and colleagues sees a number of other scenarios that are likely to occur in the future. If humans were able to capture communications from aliens. They do not believe that superpowers, especially those that are democratic. Will be able to conceal and monopolize contact with the alien intellect race.
Prof Wright’s research suggests that Because the world of Western science is tightly and complexly connected and integrated. with various cooperation networks that cannot be separated from each other This will prevent the situation of fighting for communication channels with aliens from occurring. If the leaders of different countries and people in science are transparent. share information to the public sufficiently
“Blocking the Alien Research Site By encircling the border tightly and deploying garrison troops. The more people are skeptical and convinced that Something is about to lead to a world-changing event. Resulting in the use of spies to find the truth. and political slashing to compete for information in the end,” the research team concluded.
