Good story. Needs a sequel though. There are a lot of open options here

Unfortunately time dilation onboard the ships doesn’t work like that

My first thought with the discovery of an incoming Alien fleet,.. it was possibly refugees?.. Not invaders given the size of it.. I'd guess that species survival was a more likely reason to travel here before waiting until they could develop FTL and a much easier trip with more options like opting for uninhabited by sentients choice than a possibly violent societal clash that could kill us both off.
Their chosen solution, outstanding!!!... both survive and continue, a joint venture to stay connected and advance both our scientific knowledge.. The ones who opt to stay on Earth greatly advance expanding exploration and resource gathering here in our system aiding us locally, as we gather the fuel they need.. our volunteers who travel with them to a different system grant us the huge benefit of being on more than one world,.. So we can have other options if we ever faced a mass extinction event like they did.
Each building new, smaller fleets to land on other unoccupied worlds, so no need to fight over a landing..
a VERY well thought out story, one that supposes both species are ultimately a moral people who are happy to help each other rather than just fight. Exploring better options that benefit both species..
Thank you.. a very good story based on actual realities as we know them.. and one aimed at a better future for all.🤔🤔

Thank you. And a very well thought out comment.

very concise but i have to point out they thought they would conquer where ever they landed with their 25k mechanized army but we had evolved quicker then they could imagine. that's why i loved the mutual 'we surrender' both sides were highly rational about their situations given what they knew and janet got them thinking of mutual cooperation to the benefit of both.
i would love to know how many aliens stayed and how many humans went as both species could learn a lot from the other
such a great start

@@yomogami4561 This came from an idea I have for a series of books that follow a group of Humans who embark on a journey like this. I haven't gotten around to writing it yet, but seeing the reaction to the short story, I may move it up in the queue.
