Our technology is only about 150 to 200 years old. Imagine a similar civilization that did not go through a "Dark Ages". They would be 2000 years ahead of us in technology, if we assume they started at the same time as we did. A "warp bubble" was created in the lab a few weeks ago. NASA has a "warp drive" research team.

To assume that we know everything about physics at this point in time is a very risky stance.

Just prove it, that’s all ya got to do.. create a Star Trek style warp field so I can propel my starship to Wolf 359 and I’ll be the first to admit I was wrong, you were right.

Imagine a similar civilization that did not go through
***All of your reasoning is based on a hyperactive imagination rather than simply examining the evidence.

a “Dark Ages”. They would be 2000 years ahead of us in technology,
***That would still be 100 thousand years behind the capability you are postulating, the ability to travel across interstellar space. And then they come here & crash. Crashing is not indicative of a higher race of beings, it is indicative of an experimental program.

if we assume they started at the same time as we did.
***Yet another unfounded assumption, along with so many others you’re holding onto.

A “warp bubble” was created in the lab a few weeks ago.
***No it wasn’t.

NASA has a “warp drive” research team.
***Of COURSE they do. They love spending our money.

To assume that we know everything about physics
***Total straw argument. Coupled with the standard logical fallacy of arguing from silence. We know what we know. You’re postulating that there could be things we don’t know [argument from the silence of the evidence] that supercedes that which we do know — standard violation of Occham’s Razor.

at this point in time is a very risky stance.
***At this point in time, your position is the risky stance. You are promoting that “strong delusion” because it’s fun to think about, entertaining. But it doesn’t stand up to simple logical scrutiny to those who are familiar with scientific experiments in boundary layer control in the 1920s which led to flying saucers in the 1940s.
