I've said in the past some things about the future of human evolution that seemed quite crude at the time but still stand a small measure of scrutiny.Need for higher levels of intelligence equals larger brains.
Lesser need for physical strength due to applications of technology means smaller bodies.
Larger need for sensory input to those larger brains (particularly vision) = larger or more sensitive sensory organs (namely larger eyes)
Living outwith the solar system or any star system = no need for skin pigmentation to protect from UV light = white/grey skin.
So in summary...large head with large eyes...small body...grey skin.
I think I recognise that type of appearance.
I had a similar theory when I was a kid. I called them "tourists" from the future, in slight parody of Hawking's analogy of time travel from A Brief History of Time.

Not in a strictly natural way. The best way for a human to adapt it to get better stuff so there's no evolutionary need to evolve. As our understanding of genetics improves we might be able to artificially evolve, but that won't happen for a long time.
