Exactly!
And the aliens influencing people’s life’s could explain NDE, visions...
@Edgeward -- And wet dreams.
Who's airline, would we not be survivors of space craft mishaps. That could be interesting. Would answer a lot of questions.

Not to rain on your parade, but the breeding luck thing has been done. In Ringworld, the population is limited by laws preventing overreproduction, but people can get an exemption by playing in a sort of lottery. One of the main characters is from a multigenerational streak of lotto winners, specifically those that won multiple times in their lives. Her 'luck gene' is so strong that she can't be hurt, physically or emotionally. Something always occurs to prevent it.
