Curious about how Islam adapts to mind-bending new realities-like the idea of aliens.

Salaam, hope you're doing well. I'm coming with a genuine question and lots of respect-just an outsider trying to understand. I believe in God, and I'm not here to challenge anything-just exploring out of curiosity. So here's a thought: say we discover intelligent beings from other worlds, and they're peaceful or neutral. How does Islam, historically and theologically, deal with something totally new like that? Like, how might scholars approach it? And personally, how would you make sense of it in your faith? Also, since there's no single central authority in Islam, how would a common view even form and spread among Muslims? Really curious to hear different takes!
