When asked about whether a visit from aliens might be a good thing for us, Hawking's opinion was that it would not be. When asked - in a completely different interview - about the future prospects for mankind, Hawking suggested that, rather than keeping all of our eggs in one rather fragile basket, we should seek to become a multiplanetary species.
		
		
	 
 He fears alien invasion and wants to evacuate earth. That'll do it!
"at least 2010, Hawking has spoken publicly about his 
fears that an advanced alien civilization would have no problem wiping out the human race the way a human might wipe out a colony of ants."

In Newscientist I read this wacko fearmongering...
"
The clock is ticking inexorably toward 
doomsday even if we don’t kill ourselves by poisoning the environment or 
overheating the planet. You see, there’s a little problem with the Sun.
The Sun is slowly getting warmer as it burns the hydrogen in its core. In about 5 billion years, the 
Sun will begin evolving into a bloated red giant. Its outer gas shell will swell up, 
engulfing the Earth by the time it reaches its peak size and brightness 7 billion years from now.
But long before that, in 1.1 billion years, the Sun will grow 11% brighter, 
raising average terrestrial temperatures to around 50 °C (120 °F). That will warm the 
oceans so much that they evaporate without boiling, like a pan of water left on a sunny kitchen counter.
Plants and animals will have a very tough time adapting to that hothouse, although some single-celled organisms called Archaea might survive. But only for a while. Once the water vapour is in the atmosphere, ultraviolet light from the Sun will split the water molecules, and the hydrogen needed to build living cells will slowly leak into space. 
If our descendants – or other intelligent life-forms that follow us – want to survive, they’ll have to migrate elsewhere. "

 Face it science is part of a bad spirit evil philosophy that preaches doom and gloom and death and hopelessness.
	
	
		
		
			Yet he is still making ground breaking discoveries about the universe,
		
		
	 
 Misreading lights and flares etc is not 
discovering, it is an excuse to foist the foul religious darkness of so called science on the absolutely unknown!
