you been watching too many aquaman programmes. aliens will come down and inter-breed with us, creating a super race...and we'll leave the planet in search of better water quality...
You do know that the likelihood of aliens having compatible DNA with humans is practically nonexistent, right? Aliens probably will not even be organic.
You're right, aliens'll probably not have compatible DNA to humans at all. Like dogs don't have compatible DNA to chickens...but i don't get why you think they won't be organic...
Anything is possible when it comes to life outside in the galaxy. For all we care the first race of aliens we could encounter could breath sulphur hexafluoride and be comprised of Silicon and Iron(strange as it is).
oh yeah, i have no doubt that our first alien encounter will baffle science with how they're made up - i have no doubt about that whatsoever. but what defines when something is organic...
I highly doubt there will be an Earth in 2,000 years. Or at least, human civilization will be gone.

It will be more different and unimaginable to us than our time would be to someone living 2000 years ago.
If we aren't extinct, space will figure heavily in that future. I don't see current forms of government or economy surviving; if nothing else, technology will bring us new realization and awareness about who we are. We will need to consider a Bigger Picture in how we organize ourselves.
I'd like to think we will become a more compassionate species.

Re: What will the future be like in 2 THOUSAND years?
given the current social standing i hope so too.
i feel people are very ignorant, arrogent, have serious attitude problems, want more in return for what they give, steal, beg, don't expect to be blamed for what they do, are quick to blame everyone else...i'll stop now. i'm sure other people have found this out...and i hope in the future as we will never know it, this all changes.
Look at how things changed from the tenth century to the eighteenth, as well as how things changed from the eighteenth to the twentieth. Also from the 1980's to today.
The leaps humanity has made makes it impossible to predict where we are in another two thousand years.
One thing for certain is that we will all be one thousand, nine hundred and fifty years dead. As for humanity if it is still around, they will probably be pretty much like us today. Fighting over stuff... being nosey about things... making assumptions... makng bad movies about the Titanic. :P
Which one, the ship, or the interplanetary cruiser?
