There could be as many as four alien civilizations in the milky way that could invade Earth, a researcher has claimed. Here’s more on the malicious extraterrestrial civilizations.
Research reveals new truth about extraterrestrial life
Research by Alberto Caballero, a Ph.D. student, and researcher from the University of Vigo in Spain is estimating the presence of “malicious extraterrestrial” civilizations.
He is claiming that there may be four alien civilizations in the Milky Way that could potentially invade or attack our planet. In the study titled “Estimating the Prevalence of Malicious Extraterrestrial Civilizations,” Caballero has attempted to provide an estimation of the prevalence of hostile extraterrestrial civilizations. Although, he admitted that there are “some limitations”.
Caballero noted that the estimation is based on the “world’s history of invasions in the last century, military capabilities of the countries involved, and the global growth rate of energy consumption”.
According to Caballero’s research, upper limits of standard deviations were used to get an “estimated probability of extraterrestrial invasion” by a civilization to whose planet we send a message.
Despite the lack of definitive proof, the US government is headstrong about the rising signs of extraterrestrial life.

“I did the paper-based only on life as we know it. We don’t know the mind of extraterrestrials. An extraterrestrial civilization may have a brain with different chemical composition. And they might not have empathy or they might have more psychopathological behaviors,” stated Caballero.
“I found this way to do [the study], which has limitations because we don’t know the mind of what aliens would be like,” he added.
Caballero in his paper said that the findings could serve as a starting point for an international debate about sending the first serious interstellar radio messages to nearby potentially habitable planets.
Caballero’s study reveals that such events occur once every 100 million years. The paper is based “only on life as we know it”. Meaning, that Caballero analyzed human invasions over the last five decades to better understand the possibility. This data was applied to several ‘exoplanets’ in our galaxy. Hence, coming to a conclusion that there could be a presence of four “malicious” alien civilizations.
Caballero’s research is considered to be more of a “thought experiment”. According to him the aim of his paper is to warn other scientists and put a number to the civilizations that could possibly revert to the messages we send out.
