Virginia is for lovers — and the US state best prepared to deal with an E.T. invasion, according to a study.
New York — which ranked fourth — isn’t quite as ready for close encounters, the data show.
The otherworldly research comes from njcasino.com, which examined a series of factors — including population density, number of UFO sightings, landscape (caves, forest, bodies of water) and defense (per capita military or law enforcement) — to come up with a survivability score for every state.
New York will be able to vanquish the space invaders because of its high number of cops per capita.
And the Empire State’s 2,600 food and beverage manufacturers will help keep New Yorkers alive as they hunker down during any extended siege by little green men, the study suggests.

“I’m ready. Bring ’em on!” said body armor dealer Brad Pedell — who runs 221B Tactical in Midtown. “I have my helmet, shields, vests. I’m as protected as I can be!”
Virginia — which earned an 8.04 out of 10 survivability score — was deemed safest from flying saucers because it has a “larger military force per capita,” the data showed.

New York will be able to vanquish the little green men thanks to having the highest volume of law enforcement per capita among states in the top 10. Michael McWeeneyIf you want to gamble with your life during a UFO attack, move to Nevada, which had the lowest survivability score — 4.53 out of 10.
The state is plagued by a high volume of UFO sightings; a lack of caves and forests to hide in, and a low number of food and beverage manufacturing companies, the study found.
The analysis comes amid renewed interest in UFOs and an Air Force veteran and intelligence official claiming the US government has been collecting intact alien spacecrafts as part of a years-long, covert operation.

Prominent Harvard physicist Avi Loeb said Americans have nothing to fear because the aliens “are much more advanced than us. They will not try to attack us.” Jon Chase/Harvard Staff PhotographerNew York also saw an uptick in UFO sightings last year.
Prominent Harvard physicist Avi Loeb — who this summer plans to embark on an ambitious expedition to Papua New Guinea to search for the remnants of a meteorite he thinks could be an alien probe — said Americans need to Martian-mellow out.
“They are much more advanced than us. They will not try to attack us,” Loeb predicted. “If we are visited it is probably mostly by technological equipment that has artificial intelligence, not necessarily biological creatures — and they have their own agenda. It has nothing to do with us.”
He continued: “We keep thinking about ourselves as being at the center of attention, but that’s very narrow-minded.”

Bring ’em on!” said body armor dealer Brad Pedell — who runs 221B Tactical in Midtown. “I have my helmet, shields, vests. “I’m as protected as I can be!” Helayne SeidmanLoeb likened extraterrestrials visiting Earth to a “biker driving down the street and not worried about the ants that come from the cracks in the pavement.”
The bottom line? “It’s to our benefit to learn from them rather than be worried that they would attack us.”
