The reason for us not having had extraterrestial contact may be
simply that it is too dangerous. Assuming that there is no feasible
reliable shield against nuclear devices(even if it got most of them the
radioactivity would be fierce) no "intelligent" intelligent life would
risk it. Say beyond all hope--etc, there is life on mars. They would
be stupid to contact us because it would be so easy for us to
annihilate the planet with nukes.
