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?
I've read that all kinds of different ETs travel past our planet during their travels. We (Earth) and our moon are kind of like a vacation spot to stop and fuel up due to the many different types of minerals we have here, and some use water.
I'm sure they know that most intelligent life lives on solid ground, be it above the surface, or inside the orb they call home.
They have been watching us (and other planets) for a very, very long time.
