My word, Amazing!!!!

I think we should think less of what they are and more on why they are there....

Think of this for a moment:

It was theorised that LS Travel, and space folding (and so forth) is possible, the problem that all the theories have is power, energy.

It has been said that we could not possibly generate enough power to opertate such technology, and attempt hyperspace jums\ftl travel. But a civilisation exponentially more advanced than us -one that could harvest the power of a star directly- could theoretically be using "star power" to travel the traverse, think of stars as pertol ports. suddenly it doesn't sound so farfetched.

I think focusing on stars themselves, and means to convert heat\light energy into useable power might be our key to ftl-travel, become part of the a galactic civilisation.

I tend to think that our solar system has been a "pitstop" for galactic civilization for many years, this would explain every UFO sighting over the course of our history, and i think that there might be some "no interference with preWarp civilizations" rule that ocasionally gets "bent".

We need to put our dependance of fossil fuels, and the greed it attracts in the past, should we choose to discover the secrets of the universe!

Look to the future.
