IIRC, weren't the ELS explorers according to the official interviews? Maybe they're not so much needing a place to live as they are trying to just get to know us better.

ELS: We were just trying to get to know your people more personally.
Setsuna: Your methods weren't personal, they were invasive. And yeah, I remember talk about how the ELS weren't searching for a new homeworld; they'd already found one.

Unless you mean the radiation of the sun? Which I think they're pretty fine with since they traveled long distances with nothing but themselves across deep space. But yes like what RisingDragon said, I don't really think the ELS were looking for a home planet. They really do just want to say "hi, my name is ELS, what's yours? OH NO SHIT STORM!" |

That's exactly the beauty of it. Their method of properly getting intimate with humans is to literally consume them, which would be the norm for ELS, but not for humans. Cultural difference at its finest.

Yes but what I meant was (I might've been a bit to vague), gas giants are so common that they really didn't have to go out of there way to go all the way to Jupiter for it. So their reason for being close to Earth most probably isn't because of finding a new home. And the fact that they can travel in deep space for so long already means they can live in space for a very very very long time.

Seeing how they can traverse through space without any difficulties, they likely don't need a certain kind of gas giant for a homeworld, but different types of gas giants might affect future development of their species.

I'm still trying to figure out whether their solar energy system is related to all this since they have one just like the human's version on Earth ontheir planet.
Anyways, Im reposting an earlier interview with the designers for referencing purposes in this topic. Translation credit goes to Murra: Quote:
I just copy-pasted what he posted because I did not want to disturb with the original translated text, however most should agree with me about these typos.

Anyways, Aeolia's plan seems to prepare humanity for the dialogues to come which is with an alien race at some point but as far as we know Aeolia did not have a specific alien civilisation in mind, just any one. This is because once humans move to space, they need to ensure they communicate with potential civilisations well (which at that point, humanity would have already been cool among themselves generally speaking), otherwise it would lead to prolonged intergalactic warfare. Hell, even with the ELS Conflict we have two civilisations with good intentions make a bad mess of the situation and it happened in just a short time. Tiera thought that the dialogues would be uncounted approximately a few decades from now, however the encounter with the ELS coincidently just happened a lot faster than was expected which was why he woke up earlier.
