Yes, not months,but YEARS !
I am slightly off the edge here, but i just want to speak out and begin with http://www.figu.org.
What I am talking about is: The FIGU is an organisation based on one man's UFO encounter (here, in real life...hello ?!  ) that is supposed to be ongoing still. If you are too lazy to check the link and find out more, i ll tell you briefly about it: Billy Meier, a Swiss farmer, had begun his contacts with extraterrestrials in late 70s (with 'unaware' contacts right from the 40-50s), shot their craft with photo equipment, and most important has preserved A LOT OF CONTACT NOTES (several thousands of pages).
Now what has this to do with Star Control ?`Well, i ve read some of the pages, and personally I think they are genuine, as they express some sort of very deep wisdom. One of the pages is quite long and tells the past, present and future of humanity.
Wouldn't by chance Fred and Paul have been inspired by Billy Meiers contact reports ? Or wouldnt there even be an untold mystery that we never will know which goes around just WHERE AND WHEN the story began ?
Some of the similarities, i find staggering, for example the histroy lineage telling that humans DID NOT originate on Earth, and are instead a scientific DNA experiemnt (manufactured species) by extraterrestrials (analogy with Arilou altering human DNA, and being our "protectors"). Those extraterrestrials that have manufactured us are supposed to be seeking us, as humans had taken refuge from MArs to Earth (reason: environmental cataclysms), and they have been doing so for eons, also having other species as targets on their cleansing mission. This is real life, but isn't this SO LIKE the Ur-Quan hunting sentient races for the purpose of purifying the galaxy (cleansing). And there is even more: The contact reports by Billy Meier also speak of us creating a sub-species for labour by mixing our own DNA with that of pigs. The result will have been more violent, more robust, smarter and stronger human derivations. Doesnt it remind you of Androsynth ?
The list goes on, but those contact reports are quite vast and I havent read them since like a year ago, so i dont remember much of them. But to this day, i am hunted by the thought that the two share some kind of bizarre reason for them to coexist, to put it this way 
Comments ?

Well, i didnt say the similiarities were THAT strong. Nevertheless, if you one day take a cup of good cofee latê and take some time to read contact report 251 (only 5-6 are currently available online), it is covered there in more detail.
Arilou still have the same attitude towards humans, as those mentioned by Meier. Who knows the truth ? We know what we are told. Both are watching us
Well, not Ur-Quan perhaps, but Kzer-Za are hunting humans down. Meier doesn't say that humans are the only target, and this makes me believe there are similiarities involved.
Ha, recalled another funny resemblance:
Meier mentiones a fraction of people who disappeared under unusual circumstances involving UFOs and ETs, and also a fraction of those who had been "taken" for whatever reasons - he was told by his interviewers (ET origin), that sometimes those unlucky individuals are kidnapped or "borrowed" to be transported for exhibitioning in extraterrestrial zoos in some "far corners of space". This looks like Admiral Zex's fetish doesnt it ?

Didn't read your text too well but as for Arilou being the human race protector is not as sweet as it sounds. The only intrest they have in us is similar anatomy. We are their replacement parts! (sorry for the spoil. This is revealed in SC3)
And that is one of the reasons I didn't like that game. All the plot points were so...lazy. In SC2 the Arilou tell you that their motives are multiple and their desires are complex, and then SC3 comes along, and suddenly they have but one motive and desire: survival, and we are simply means to that end.
Pardon me, (especially because I'm sure I could scarcely do better) but that's simply the product of lazy storytelling. Given that the Arilou were extra-dimensional, their origins and interactions with hunams had basically no boundaries. Their interest in us could have been the result of anything, but they chose to take the obvious, cynical "one group exploiting another" tack. Lame.
But, the same could be said for just about every other plot point in that wretched game. Sometimes it pays to hire talented writers..

SCII didn't say humans weren't from Earth. They simply stated that the Arilou "modified" human's DNA. Which would mean that there had to be humans around to modify and so I highly doubt SCIII's nonsense. Anyway, I don't want to put down your personal beliefs, but I think you've gotten way too hooked into Sci-Fi. If you take the DNA of every single animal on earth (including humans) you will find similarities. Which would mean that we're related to them and have split into different groups at one point or another. So, if that farmer's journals were to be true these aliens had to introduce the version that started these many groups of animal, millions of years ago.

actually, you will find more than similarites.. There is a 2% difference between the DNA of a bacterium and that of a human
