Yeah, but our signals have only gone 100 light years out, which is nothing in galactic terms. They would have to have reached planets with civilisations of sufficient technology to detect them and also have the technology to travel here. If that were the case, we would have detected them by now as well.

Yeah, all theories at present. No-one has yet worked out how you would get through a wormhole without being crushed to the size of a pinhead, and they don't even know if it would be possible to survive it.

True, but I "play the odds", which is why I say my belief is no aliens have been here. I could be wrong of course, but I have yet to be convinced otherwise.
