2) could they find us?
3) why would they bother?
I would guess a supreme being on earths future could figure out time travel before an alien from another star system could visit us.

One imaginative science fiction short story I read had an Earth-made probe travelling for thousands of years with sperm and eggs cryogenically frozen then upon reaching a habital world, the ship auto lands and machinery/computers essentially grows and educates the young human children.
That's assuming the light barrier can't be surmounted.
