There are between 1.6 million to 40 million viruses, and 860,000 to 11 million bacteria in each cubic meter of air known on earth. I'll like to see aliens play superman against that. |
Yes, there's always the possibility DNA and cell membranes as we know it are the standard for biology in the universe... probably different in the case of life evolving on a Titan-like environment but chemical reactions would be so slow there I doubt they could evolve intelligent life.
But I doubt it would be a problem to them. Humans would be a much more likely target of viruses and bacteria in the scenario proposed here. The aliens could use nanites for timed release of biological agents genetically engineered to kill us.
