If they had the technology to travel at the speed of light I'm sure they could come up with some kind of kinetic shielding. That's more plausible than reaching the speed of light anyway.
Either way. It's all speculation.
Then they must be lacking the motive to get here. If they have everything they need, why would they risk their life traveling so far? They don't exactly suffer from the lack of dopamine Christopher Columbus suffered to go out in the nothingness like a mad man.
I don't understand this in people, bliss is closer to you than any other thing in the world, it's in your brain. Why would you need to travel like Christopher Columbus 50 light years away, it's madness. You get some dopamine and 6-MAM flowing through your brain and the madness goes away. You no longer need to travel anywhere.
I believe that if superior aliens exist, they are much more in control of their own body and awareness than we are.
How do you know they need to be here for any reason?
Perhaps they are so familiar with how the universe works that neither us nor our solar system retains the least interest for them. You don't go around overturning every stone and digging up every worm burrow just see how the particular critters under this stone behaves or in that hole, do you?
Perhaps their we retain interests for them but their remote sensing is so sophisticated and powerful that from 50 million light years away they can tell every last detail about what you were fantasizing as you jerked off last night, withoug your ever knowing you were being scrutinized?
