That would only work if your hypothetical xenos see in the same visible light spectrum we do. If they can see into the ultraviolet or infrared bandwidths (or worse, can natively perceive some of the EM bandwidths) just painting the ship black won't help. Remember - a sentient alien not of our earth may have some very weird (to us) abilities. That's part of the fun of these HFY stories - you can go pretty crazy with "what if" Take "Rocky" from Andy Wier's "project hail mary" my spidery Boi can HEAR like we can see. (Wier really made an effort to ensure Rocky's character was as inhuman as possible... )

So there are a lot of planets out there with 40% or more oxygen in their atmospheres? Earth only has 20% because plants converted what used to be about 20% CO2 into oxygen, leaving very little CO2 (0.04% - Plants are very efficient at removing CO2 from the atmosphere) How did those planets get so much 02? And "Xenomorph" just means "Alien shaped life form" - The Aliens Franchise twisted its meaning, which means the Aliens movies are in this universe?

Funny. Although would be better tactically for you to let your opponent think that you can't see them and return home with that information.

Somewhat weird ending. Seems strange that they would simply shoot at a ship without warning. Another thing that's strange is that the coalition was appearently trying to develop something to use against humans, yet they were perfectly fine with a diplomatic mission to directly show all of their new equipment? It's a bit weird, normally if someone wants to fight they'd rather keep their best and newest stuff secret so that the enemy-to-be won't be able to properly prepare for it.

Just because were there greatest threat doesn't mean were enemies. This guy is just headstrong jerk that doesn't lesson to those who have a higher IQ, and wanted to prove a point. It is also notable that we may be able to literally SEE them, but they may still be sensor blind. Which means there trying to hide for some reason, which makes them a threat, and if they knew they were being observed then they may try to escape and my even succeed if they use there bling drive. We also may have had to aim manually because of them being invisible to sensors, which means if we warned them then they could have also gone evasive and thus be very hard to hit, we would then need to send interceptors after them. They would catch up to the alien ship eventually, being that they were called slow earlier, but ain't nobody got time for that!

@@teamidris Still weird. Like, as an example, normally when a plane enters restricted airspace they will still be contacted like "this is a military airspace, leave immediately or we will shoot" On ground there's always at least some signs posted, that informs anyone who gets close that they will be shot if they proceed any further. Like, no one just starts shooting immediately unless they're already at war.

The Three Stooges as diplomatic military Envoys

ROFLOL We see you....

It’s still very useful. But who cares if the human, alien eye can see ship? It has to be within miles, they need to be looking in exact direction *in every direction* to see. Then observe, guess speed, direction… If human instruments can’t see. It’s a useful tool. Today’s stealth ship, planes. Are visible. Painted to not be as noticeable against likely backgrounds. But to instruments. A stealth craft is a huge success if it can cut the distance till radar, heat… sensors can detect in half. Instead enemy noticing your attack force 100 miles out. They notice *something* 50 miles out. But are not sure it’s not nothing till 30 miles out. That’s stealth.

This narrator cracked me up😅😂. When he tries to do a female voice, he sounds like a character from Family Guy, or maybe Southpark. Was hard for me to take it seriously. Still good though.😊

I do not believe humans that were sent on a diplomatic mission would dare be that rude. There is no way they'd complain about having to give up on some show or small event like that to do their duty, especially when it's about scientific breakthroughs. Also, with how well people on such a mission would be trained, there is no way they'd freak out and yell stuff about xenomorphs. If they are afraid, they'd simply move to undo the lock on their holster and hold it firmly, ready to defend themselves if the "creature" makes any sudden acts of aggression. When it comes to the handshake, there is no way you'd go for that until both sides have had a conversation about what is acceptable and not acceptable between different species as there may be poison coatings on certain limbs or maybe extra sensitive parts or cultural differences that could create a massive conflict between species just because of some good intention gone wrong. If they had anything to complain about when it comes to the tech, they'd at most let out a mild groan and then talk about it in private later on.

The pictures don’t fit the story at all. She is supposed to look like the alien in the film.
