We don't have any evidence yet but it is a distinct possibility that we may some day come across some. We can imagine what that would look like. But who knows what it would like to discover a god? Would a really long lived and powerful alien be a god? No? Then what the hell are we talking about?
Quite so, which is why theists should logically 'believe in' aliens as. If they are willing to buy the god concept, aliens is actually a significant step down on the credulity ladder.
