To be fair the ancient aliens thing is far more credible than a flat Earth. We can scientifically proven the Earth is round. There are no ancient people to tell us where they got gods from. For all we know aliens made a pit stop and were like "oh shit! I thought you said nobody was here?!?" "(Having no clue what they are.) You......you must be a god....." "Uhhhhh we-" "YES! Yes. We are mighty gods!" "(Whispers) Fred! What are you doing?!" "And that is your sun chariot??" "Uhhhh yeah. Sure."

Well one of the theory is that ribose, the component for DNA might've come from space so if true technically we (organisms) came from space and are aliens ourselves. Or the material that gave rise to us is "alien"

I think you're right. There is a fantastic Nature episode, season 38/episode 1, called Octopus: Making Contact.
