How did they develop space travel for real? These ugly motherfuckas can't be smart enough to develop star drives!
I like that SciFi concept that manipulating gravity/space/time is actually not that hard, and some civilizations discover that a lot earlier and go down a different technological evolutionary tree
So you have like wooden spaceships operated by aliens wielding swords, and they show up to earth to conquer us assuming they're way more advanced than us, but realize we have hella advanced weapons, infrastructure, and communications technologies
