gollark: Humans with ~current technology, even.
gollark: It's not reasonable to just assume that the hyperadvanced aliens checking out some other planet will just be basically humans with fancy ships.
gollark: ?!
gollark: Why would they not:- look at stuff from orbit beforehand, or send unmanned probes- have at least basic weaponry available for defense against possibly hostile native life- have waaaay better medical technology and/or environmental protection stuff, thus making the deinosuchi not very threatening
gollark: Oh, and they need good shielding against high-velocity particles, which might work okay against some weapons fire.
