Other intelligent races "out there" developed not solely from evolution, but from other races' "missionary" sowing of intelligent life on planets they discovered whose indigenous biota had evolved to the point where one or more animal species could provide a suitable anatomy and physique for engineering in high intelligence and spirituality.
Thus, these Star Nations vary, some naturally evolved, others with development accelerated through bioengineering by older, more advanced races. Either way, many of these Star Nations operate like Peace Corps workers, going about the galaxy, exploring, and …show more content…
In other words, they had achieved Homo Sapiens.
This phase of bioengineering is commented on in 6000+-year-old Sumerian cunieform quasi-historical literary story tablets. The Sumerian historical stories mention humanoid Star Visitors as the race involved in their proto-ancestors' bioengineering. Other Asia Minor records indicate a Reptoid Star Visitor group intervened at Derinkuyu and elsewhere.
After observing Homo Sapiens in operation over a number of generations, and its idiosyncratic blend of primate animal instinctuality with incipient intelligent spiritual sensitivity, the Star Visitors were dissatisfied with the intelligence level of their hybrid, and decided to proceed further with an additional genetic engineering upgrade. The result was what Earth anthropologists label Homo Sapiens Sapiens, modern humankind. This penultimate bit of bioengineering occurred approximately 130,000 years
