So Han Solo (Harrison Ford [good name]) (Star Wars) was full of the proverbial when he was boasting his millennium falcon (also good name) could make 0.5 past light speed....it would take him 2.8 years just to get to the nearest star!!! The movie was over in about 2 hours. Am still waiting.

So, to answer your question......NO.......unless they have an interesting form of travel in order to get here and mess with airplanes.
The comment was a bit tongue in cheek, I'm sure all will be revealed sooner or later.
