Rise of The Kek: A Science Fiction Novel Overview
The Neutrino Drive engine was the Cideban's answer to near-lightspeed space travel. Cideban scoutships crossed the galaxy with impunity, cataloguing the evolutionary and technological progress of the worlds they discovered. Time dilation kept the scoutship pilots young as hundreds, even thousands of light years slipped behind them. When the Cideban homeworld came under attack by the Kek, a vicious race of bloodthirsty insectoids that had commandeered and partly succeeded in reverse engineering a Cideban Neutrino Drive engine, a chain of events was set into motion which led straight to Earth. But humanity was ill-equipped to defend itself against interstellar spacefaring aliens, and not advanced enough to utilize Neutrino Drive engine technology.

Review: Micromegas
This one is the first. It's the first short story about aliens, the first short story questioning the position of humans in the universe relative to extra-terrestrials, and the first to suggest that aliens might be our equals, even our superiors. It's also, being 260 years old, one of the first science fiction texts out there. This is aliens-come-to-earth, sci-fi Patient Zero right here, and it certainly didn't keep its ideas to itself.
