Perhaps there could be some newer ET-TT visitations to this part of the galaxy (from the past 10 minutes to the past 10,000 years.) but in all likelihood, in a universe that's estimated to be over 13 billion years old, many ET travelers could have had their Wright_brothers and SpaceX moments, billions of years ago.

The Lion Portal

Portals

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/00/A_Goldwyn_Picture.jpg

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowardly_Lion#Books

There is quite a strong set of lion portal symbolism thorough the years.

A girl has a dream about another reality with some strange and familiar characters. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wizard_of_Oz_(1939_film)#Plot A Tornado serves as the portal into this other reality where a Cowardly_Lion lives.

"In 1965, in an attempt to update its image, MGM recruited Lippincott to create a more contemporary logo.^[13] The result, a circular still graphic of a lion known as "The Stylized Lion", appeared at the beginning of two films in the 1960s: 2001: A Space Odyssey..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_the_Lion_(MGM)#Leo_(1957-present)

Of course this MGM movie would have a portal, AKA the Star Gate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_(film)#Star_Gate_sequence

"Theatrically released on October 28, 1994, by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargate_(film)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/60/Bridge_Studios.jpg Of course the TV production would also have the lion portal connection. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargate_Universe#Writing_and_filming

Orion_Pictures has a connection with the lion portal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_Pictures#Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer_subsidiary

A time travel portal that can be opened up is part of The_Terminator story-line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Terminator#Plot

1968:

"In the prehistoric African veldt, a tribe of hominids is driven away from its water hole by a rival tribe. Later, they awaken to find an alien monolith has appeared in their midst."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_(film)#Plot

1969:

"The Veldt" - Parents in a futuristic society worry about their children's mental health when their new virtual reality nursery, which can produce any environment the children imagine, continually projects an African veldt populated by lions feasting on carcasses."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Illustrated_Man_(film)#Story_summaries

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Veldt_(short_story) 1950 & 1951 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Illustrated_Man#The_Veldt

Lions at the other end of a VR portal in the form of a computer program.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lion,_the_Witch_and_the_Wardrobe 1950

"While the Pevensies play hide-and-seek, Lucy discovers a wardrobe and enters the fantasy world of Narnia."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chronicles_of_Narnia:_The_Lion,_the_Witch_and_the_Wardrobe#Plot

An Alien messages the human species may not want to receive

 https://dailygalaxy.com/2021/05/from-the-farside-alien-messages-the-human-species-may-not-want-to-receive-watch-video/

The earth could have been sending out a homing signal for decades that might be picked up from malevolent as well as benevolent beings.

However, nothing big and dangerous happened with the Wow!_signal in August 1977.

https://phys.org/news/2017-06-wow-mystery-space.html

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow!_signal#Background

https://earthsky.org/space/wow-signal-explained-comets-antonio-paris

https://astronomy.com/news/2020/09/the-wow-signal-an-alien-missed-connection

Of course if this world is the equivalent of someones lab, then people are already trapped in a cosmic science project. So whether its sinister and benevolent entities or a nefarious ALIEN species or good ETs, people are stuck on this world.

The Rabbit Portal. (TRP) and The+Digital+Portal are one in the same and are about exploring, The Nature Of Reality (TNOR).

The symbolism of the rabbit hole or portal is fascinating in popular culture.

https://matrix.fandom.com/wiki/Alice's_Adventures_in_Wonderland#The_White_Rabbit 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Rabbit_(song) Released in June 1967 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix_(club)#Emergence_of_Jefferson_Airplane August 1965

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_Leave_(Star_Trek:_The_Original_Series) 1966-12-29 

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0708446/?ref_=tt_mv

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Shore_Leave_(episode) 

"The USS Enterprise arrives at a planet in the Omicron Delta system. Scans reveal the planet is congenial, and the crew is exhausted after three months of operations. Captain Kirk announces shore leave for off-duty personnel.

Dr. McCoy sees an anthropomorphic white rabbit, and a moment later Alice, from Alice in Wonderland, asks McCoy if a rabbit passed by."

"Spock beams down to gather sensor readings as communications between the ship and planet degrade, stranding himself. After Yeoman Barrows changes into a medieval dress, a knight on horseback charges her. McCoy protects her but is impaled by the lance. Kirk shoots the knight with Sulu's revolver. Kirk and Spock analyze the knight's body; it is composed of the same material as the planet's vegetation. A World War II fighter plane strafes the landing party; during the commotion, the bodies of Dr. McCoy and the knight vanish."

"An elderly man appears: the "Caretaker". Accompanying him is Dr. McCoy, revived by the planet. McCoy shows off the two Rigelian cabaret girls he conjured up. The planet is an "amusement park"; its constructs are not intended to be harmful or permanent. The Caretaker apologizes for the misunderstandings and offers the planet's services to the Enterprise's crew, cautioning that they must choose their amusements carefully." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_Leave_(Star_Trek:_The_Original_Series)#Plot

Theodore_Sturgeon brilliantly depicted a manufactured world just for the purpose of having fun and adventure.

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Shore_Leave_Planet An amusement planet or MATRIX world with a full immersion of various interactive entertainment scenarios. https://ca.startrek.com/database_article/amusement-park-planet , 

https://ca.startrek.com/article/lost-trek-history-shore-leave

It's the complete opposite of a Borg world or ship where technology is used to control and enslave everyone. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Borg_starship_classes

"Borg structures were located in deep space, in planetary systems, or on planets themselves. Each planet the Borg modified showed a typical climate and assimilated infrastructure adapted from the previous inhabitants."

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Borg#Infrastructure

https://therabbitportal.blogspot.com/search?q=TRP

Of course the Lion Portal symbolism is just as interesting.

SimCity was released in 1989, a full decade before the first Matrix movie and The_Thirteenth_Floor. Then SimCity_3000 was released in early 1999. The technology isn't suppose to exist yet, where a person can be linked to a sim character and live in a simulated city. However, more & more people are starting to ponder that this world might be part of a cosmic recording. https://fusionanomaly.net/matrix.html

There was the WestWorld movie in 1973. Then people got to first see the STAR WARS Droids in 1977, but the Battlestar_Galactica_(1978_TV_series) was about humans on Battlestar_Galactica and other ships being pursued by malevolent robots. Now Sam Esmail will provide his own interesting take on the A.I. theme.

COMPUTER SCIENTIST: A.I. CAN’T FLOURISH WITHOUT A PHYSICAL BODY

 https://futurism.com/the-byte/computer-scientist-ai-flourish-without-physical-body

AI is just a running series of programs. However, once A.I. is inside of an animated physical structure, robotic or cybernetic, its a whole other ball game.

In a certain fantastic movie, the HAL_9000 was an A.I. system that was linked to the ship, Discovery_One. Thus in effect, HAL and the ship are one.

A similar scenario is depicted in the Andromeda_(TV_series).

"The relationships between land, animals and people

In most stories of the Dreaming, the Ancestor Spirits came to the earth in human form and as they moved through the land, they created the animals, plants, rocks and other forms of the land that we know today. They also created the relationships between groups and individuals to the land, the animals and other people.

Once the ancestor spirits had created the world, they changed into trees, the stars, rocks, watering holes or other objects. These are the sacred places of Aboriginal culture and have special properties. Because the ancestors did not disappear at the end of the Dreaming, but remained in these sacred sites, the Dreaming is never-ending, linking the past and the present, the people and the land."
