> Thought experiment: what happens next?

Oddly enough, not that much. You'll have a lot of emotion, and lots of ink spilled, but little will change for the day to day life of most people: They have their lives to worry about, aliens are cool, but don't put bread on the table.

Governments will race to get a mission with humans to visit.

What happens next depends on if there are living aliens there, or just an old city.
