Maybe I'm missing something, but this is a sort of scientific research:

NASA: Aliens might destroy us

I think we can all work for NASA, coming up with various end-of-the-world scenarios involving aliens.

If I had to vote for one of the scenarios outlined in the article, I think we'd be bureaucratized to death. The aliens, with colonies all over the galaxy, have the worst redtape ever. This is the possibility least likely to be turned into a movie, and hence most likely to be reality.
