The thing that always will gnaw at me is, why have legs...? three legs that are for standing on the ground?
If a machine travels millions of light years or through unknown dimensions and arrives at a planet where it
is deemed to have intelligent life on it (the jury's still out on that one, by the way!).. why would the occupants
or the machine itself assume this adroit species would be on land?
Most of the crafts are designed poorly to travel in our airspace using conventional power and so hints that
the original home of these things doesn't involve travelling through similar air conditions, that makes sense.
But the legs...? Why assume all life that can premeditate, construct and wish to leave it's own planet exists
on solid ground?
