Fascinating thought experiment. I must admit, once you mentioned Proxima B I couldn't get past wondering if that is the home of the Nommos. Perhaps something far more sophisticated than tardigrades has visited us. https://www.gaia.com/article/did-this-african-tribe-originate-in-another-star-system

you tube carries a video of scifi,darwin V an exoplanet

https://www.google.com/search?q=+journey+to+darwin+v&hl=en&sxsrf=AB5stBiVZZvCzx7IDHUgMZmr-f

the vide has neat graphics,interrupted after each 2-3 minute clips of the local inhabitants hunting for food of animals in turn hunting for daily sustenance,,each couple minutes of viewing local lifeforms gets interrupted so 25 eggheads can tell us what we just saw,,,,the hour long presentation is a cliffhanger that calls for relief,,,the remaining floating gas ballon powered robot shoots out a saucer disk to investigate further a seeming intelligent hunter life form,the alien gas bag gets spooked throws out a spear into our hero buzzard in appearance robot,, dumb robot killed the mission,

This story need a new episode,, a team of live humans in suits to land and make contact

with the hunter floating dirigbles,give them NASA T shirts a snack suitable for the aliens,a music ipod and video player showing earth scenes,
